Class History When we thirty-four freshmen began our journey in high school in 1950, we thought we knew every- thing which a student brain could acquire. We knéw'that we must select our leaders in order to acc- omplish our years work. We elected Ted Kaylor president, ‘Jackie. Ledford vice-president, Tommy Little secretary, and Billy Mack jefe treasurer, We had a peers stul year and looked forward to being sophomores the following fall, When the ringing bell called us together again, thirty- one of us took another step up the ladder, climbing effortlessly to our yonder goal. Anita Crouse was our president, Johnny Killian Vice- Pres- ident, Nancy Little secretary, and Russell Dellinger treasurer. We added to our knowledge much more than we thought possible, and wondered what.more»we could learn in our third year of high school. Back in the fall of '52, we the Juniors of Rock Springs had many, many dreams to look froward to. . First we elected officers to guide our way through the year. Jewell Lineberger was chosen president, Perry Sifford vice-president, Dolly Hager secretary, and Elsie Barker treasurer. Our Junior Play, Pride and Prejudice,” was really a bang, and.we had loads of fun presenting it. Our Junior-Senior Banquet was everything we had ever dreamed of, only our decorations did not arrive in time. In two days we made all the necessities and when the night arrived we knew it would not have been more perfect if Michigan had sent all the decorations it owned. As the remaining days of our Junior year passed we realized that it Werle be only a short time before we would become dig- nified Seniors. The final call came in '53, eee thirty - -one of our little band returned, this time hoping to fill our brains tocapacity. Weneeded accurate guidance, so: We’chose as our officers Louise Waters president, Tommy Little vice-president, Betty Little secretary and Prue Reynolds treasurer. The banquet, on which the Juniors worked so faithfully, was an event that made our Senior year stand out vividly. On graduation night, as we walked up the aisle to receive our diplomas, we knew that our twelve years work had not been in vain. It not only méant that we were graduating from Rock Springs, but it was the stepping stone to our futuré, As we walked from ‘the doors of our school, we took with us all the treasured memories. No matter where we roamor what we do, the memories we shared at Rock Springs High will live in our hearts forever. Junior Barkley Historian — ae teaiaes
