We regret that James Stanton did not return to school. We have had four very successful dances. Our drama 'The Able Miss Cain has brought comments of great praise to our Class. Both the senior girls and senior boys won the volleyball intramurals champion- ships. We have spent many diligent hours to make our yearbook interesting.

Glass Jlglsfory In the Autumn of 1952 we started our freshman year with the usual swelled- heads of freshmen. Early in the year the sophomores initiated us which event brought us to the conclusion that we weren't so big after all. We had nine- teen members in our class. Janet Taylor left for New Jersey in the middle of the year. We were very Droud to have been the class to sell the highest amount of the quota set for each class during the annual sale of magazines. This honor earned us an ice-cream party provided by the seniors. Anne Malinski won the trophy and a five dollar bill for selling the most magazines.
