SE IORS MR. BULLOCK Advisor The Class of 1940 This year,s Senior Class is the fiftieth graduating class of Rapid City High School. It is one of the largest and we believe the best class ever to receive their diplomas. Under the leadership of Bob Roberts and Donald Nehren- berg, and under the guidance of Mr. Bullock and Mr. Claim, our class has sponsored the Junior play, '4Little Womenf' one of the best proms ever to be put on at Rapid City High Schoolg and the hilarious Senior play, uSpring Fever. Among the members of our class are many outstanding students. The class has also presented a new and different Pine Cone. During our years in high school our class has been noted for its enthusiasm and ability to accomplish. With this excellent beginning we are sure our class can and will make as good a mark in the world as those students who have preceded us. Representative Seniors Donald Nehrenberq Marjorie Shearn Senior Class Officers and Advisory Board Bob Roberts, President, Donald Nehrenberq, Vice President, Ruth Berqlund, Secretary, lean Miser, Treasurer.
