Long, A government was immediately set up with Shan Trebbe as leader and the freshmen began their high school life. The next year, under a new leader, Carl Richart, the freshmen changed their name to suffer-more tsoph- oniore for shortl after realizing what ahead and continued on their way to fame. In 1945 Don Stewart was elected president and the Juniors, as they were then known, presented an unforgetable iiJunior Promll with an Hawaiian theme. The title of ilSeniorll was bestowed upon the class in 1946 and another very successful year was completed; this time under the guidance of Miss Belknap, advisor; Carl Rich- art, president; Selma Sorensen, Vice president; Lee Gevers, secretary; and Allen Moore, treasurer. This class has been the largest ever to graduate from Robert A. Long high school and all 198 gradu- ates took part in the traditional senior assembly, picnic, baccalaureate, and commencement to bring to a close their high school days. The graduates will often look back to the wonderful times they have had and the many friends they have made in their Alma Mater. iiThose Happy High School Daysll will ring in their hearts forever.
