At last we have arrived at the end of our four year voyage. Many memorable excursions have been taken by us sailors. As K g, we remember the party the sophomores gave us when we were timid freshmen. The evening was spent playing games at their Carnival, Later that year we gave them a Saint Patricks Day party. Remember how Mr. Hills even had to have a special locker cleaning period so that we freshmen could clean our lockers? After a year of experience we gained our sea-legs. The boys spent more time with the football dummies than they did with the girls. Our Kick-OH party for the freshmen was a huge success. Remember how the Latin students moaned after their semester exams? We never did find out who let the frogs loose in biology class! we look through our lo' Next came the year during which we picked out our class rings. Most of the year was spent planning our prom, The Dixieland Ball. Wlietlier or not to have the log cabin: who was going to build the well: how to keep the false walls from tearingg where to get the furniture: and how to make pillars were some of the maior problems of the prom. Putting the lace on the programs and printing the invitations were some of the other projects. After these things were settled, the prom was a huge success. Finally we became seniors and ruled the school at last. How brave we thought we were to be able to skip school and not get caught, although a few of us found out we could get caught. More memories Page Lyle and Don debate on the size of their senior pictures, while Roy orders his.

As we gathered in the study hall prior to the grand march toward the end of our long voyage, the first mates of our ship received their silver and gold awards. lt was truly a fitting graduation for the sailors of the ship of 1950. The last page in our log is our will and testament. The most important thing we will to the next class of seniors is to have as exciting a voyage as we had during our four years aboard the vessel R.T.H.S. For preparing us for the greater voyage ahead we want to thank our able sponsor, Miss Leflingwell, and all the others who have helped to make this such a fruitful voyage.
