cZetuosid lead (locJzq, aoUaUie A good senior class starts being good in its sophomore year. The 1954 graduating class did just that. In our opinion, as sophomores these boys were unexcelled in sports. The football team was undefeated and untied. In basket¬ ball, the season record was 20 won, 2 lost. Sophomore c heerleaders were Jane Alm- quist, Joan Boetje, Jackie DePaepe, Sherrill Tucker, and Ann Wagner. The sophs elected Dennis Sheets presi¬ dent, Donna Dover vice-president, and Carol Kish secretary. As juniors, the students took part in even more activities. They played roles in the Speech II play, Wish on the Moon, and did a very good job on their Junior Class play, a mystery thriller entitled Cuckoos on the Hearth. The juniors also appeared in a speech class play, The Devil and Daniel Webster. In sports again, the juniors took a major part in varsity play. Two of the varsity cheerleaders were juniors. They were Jane Almquist and Ann Wagner. Jerry Janecke was elected president of the junior class. Joan Boetje was chosen • 24 seniors vice-president, and Donna Dover served as secretary. Bonita Peterson was chosen as Rock Island ' s representative at the Illinois Girls ' State, and junior marshals for the gradu¬ ation ceremonies were Jerry Janecke, Tom Scheuerman, Sherrill Tucker, and Ann Wag¬ ner. The next fall, the varsity football team was one of the greatest ever to play at Rocky High. Undefeated, they chalked up 316 points against their opponents ' 44 points. In dramatics, again they were tops. The Dramatic club play, Our Town, was very well done. Seniors taking speech presented some excellent assembly programs. Joan Boetje reigned over Homecoming festivities with her two attendants, Ann Nelson and Anne Potter. In their last year, the seniors elected Jerry Thomas president of their class. Nancy Jane Wilson served as vice-president and Joan Boetje as secretary. Commencement exercises came only too quickly, and the Class of 1954 left Rock Island high school ready to face the future.
