Front row: LARRY COLE Secretary DARLA LETTAU President Back row: JOHN OTT Vice President BOB KNUTZ Treasurer JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY The class of 56 consisting of 39 members, was somewhat busy this year. We sponsored one class dance. The class also sold refreshments at the football games. In this way, we made money to give the Junior-Senior Ball, Most of the Juniors purchased rings last year which they are proudly wearing. The Junior-Senior Ball was held in the ballroom ot the Elk's Club in Centralia, April l. The theme for the event was Easter Parade , lchosen because Easter was only two weeks awayl. The King and Queen were selected by drawing their names at the dance. Dick Prang and Lois Strand, King and Queen of l954, crowned the royalty. The Junior-Senior Banquet was another enjoyable event. lt was held May l4, at the Lutheran Church.
