y SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Four years ago sixty-eight starry eyed freshmen entered the halls of RHS. Six of these were chosen to lead the class through the first bewildering year. These leaders: BillOlsen, President, Randy O'Connor, Vice-President, Verna Arnold, Secretary, Fred Fos- nacht, Treasurer, Tanya Porter and Allen Morrow, Representatives, inspired their classmates to sponsor a Freshmen Sock dance, to operate booths in the PTA and Boy's Club carnival, and a representative in the all school play. The Advisors were: Mr. Brown and Miss Quick. In their Sophomore year their number diminished to fifty-six members. These students, who were more accustomed to high school life, were led by Allen Morrow, President, Fred Fosnacht, Vice-President, Carol Dewing, Secretary, Randy O'Connor, Treasurer, Anna McMahon and Bill Olsen, Representatives. The Advisors were: Mr. Atz and Mr. Digby. As Sophomores we sponsored a booth in the PTA Carnival. A Sopho- more Sock Dance was planned and carried out. The biggest event of the year was buying their classrings. We also had a representative in the all school play. Our number decreases to 54, leaving the ambit- ious members who diligently supported their class thus bringing high honors home to Rochester High School. The officers were: Dale Lund, President, Darlene Brown, Vice-President, Viki Schrader, Secretary, Ruby Stout, Treasurer, Randy O'Connor and jackie Gilliam, Representatives. The Advisors were: Mr. Novick and Miss Carter. fNow as upper classmen they felt a new air of importancej. The Class's main activities were the junior-Senior Ball and Banquet, entitled Pink Champagne . In order to finance this function, the class went on bottle drives, sold cans of candy, sold articles at the auction, operated the concession stand at all games, had a car wash, and had a sock dance. As the last year began to unfold approximately 50 members carried forth the prestige due to their position as top men on the totem pole. The class sponsored a sock dance at the beginning of the year, were well represented in all sports and organizations. They were mainly concerned with raising funds for the Senior Trip. They also co-sponsored the junior- Senior Ball and were honored at the junior-Senior Banquet. The officers for their final year were: Dale Lund, President, Don Phillip, Vice-President, Carol Dewing, Secretary, and Ruby Stout, Treasurer, Fred Wickholm and Viki Schrader, Representatives. Besides these activities, the class of 62 found themselves involved in the wait for graduation. T' Sifii if .
