ROW ROW ROW ROW The Class of '51, under the leadership of Tom Brown, proved themselves worthy of the prestige which accompanies the rank of Junior. Although they were a comparatively small class, they accomplished a great deal through their winning spirit and hard work. They undertook and successfully completed a number of projects all aimed toward their ultimate goal of sponsoring the annual Junior-Senior Prom. They sold concessions at the football games in conjunction with Boosters and the Colonel and later took over exclusive selling rights at noon and at basketball games. They also sponsored a dance after the Ravenna game as another money-making project. Their efforts were at last rewarded, however, by their final achievement, under the direction of Bob Honeychuck and Janet Wingzird-an incom- parable Junior-Senior. During the past year, there were many notable events which the Juniors will long remember.
