This versatile senior deserves the honor of being president of Leaders. She also has other accomplishments: playing the piano, acting in the major plays, leading arguments for the Republicans in history class, and just being her charm- ing self. Some day Norma may be a. teacher of math.

Ioan Neiswinter Joan has had an interrupted stay in our school, for she moved to another community during her junior year. Happy to be back at River, she particularly enjoyed playing in the band and participating in our intramural sports. .Toan's tastefully chosen clothes attest to her competency as a designer and seamstress.

She left us at midyear, but none of us will forget her sincere friendliness. She excelled in the classroom and was active in sports and other extracurricular affairs: still Carol had time to have fun with the gang.

Phornas Nicholson This budding young airman Qhe's a corporal in the Air Force Reserve, isn't sure what he'l1 be doing in the im- mediate future. He may be called into military service, he may go on with his schooling, or he may just stay at home and indulge in his favorite pastime, eating good food. Dapper Tom can always find work as an automo- bile mechanic, however, for he's in his glory when he's delving into the mysteries of a ball-ry motor. Hi-Y 2: Football 1, 2: Buselnall 1.

But, avid student that she is, she is no bookworm. Journalism and golf interest her most at the moment. She plans to become a teacher, but we won't be surprised some day to pick up a book Written by Harriet.

Her choice of career, teaching in the field of physical education, should insure her a satisfying and very pleasant life. She'll choose a college in the West for further training.
