CLASS OIPFICERS: Claudine Vnle, secretary: Shirlie Dennis, president: Bernie Young, vice-president: .lanice Clark. treasurer. The Year of the Forty-Ninersu The 'lfortyfninersu began their senior year by electing Shirlie Dennis, president, Bernie Young, vice-president, Claudine Cole, secre- tary, and Ianice Clark, treasurer. Qur class advisors were Mr. Fox and Miss Woodmansee, As senior classes before us had done, we begin to sell refreshments after the football games and later extended the project to cover the basketball games. The paper drives which we had begun in our junior year were contin- ued, and baked goods sales were held. Slowly, but surely, our class treasury began to grow. ln November we presented our senior play entitled 'lWe Shook The Family Tree with Mr. Harold Klatt as our director. lt was a hilarious success, With music supplied by Ray Bush and his orchestra, the annual Yule Hop was presented with all its colorful grandeur. Early in the year the class decided to put out an annual. Committees were chosen and Phyllis Parks and Marianne Beatty became cof editors-in-chief. With the cooperative efforts of the entire senior class, another tale of the Rams came into being. The Class of 49 reached the peak of its career when it decided to go to both Wash- ington and New York for skip day. Never before had a class of Rockford High attempted such an undertaking. With the fulfillment of this hoped-for event our four years of coopera- tive work had reaped a fruitful harvest which we shall never forget. As we stand on the threshold of our gradua- tion portals, we linger over fond memories of the 'lpast forever gone, and gaze uprightly into the future still our own.
