OF '47 After the confusion of the elections a big party was in progress. Miss Bonaudo, Miss Sietz, Mr. Mock and Mr. Stout were the sponsors of the party. The class combined with the Sophomores in a party. Also they had another party later on. The freshmen, unaccording to their custom, have taken part in just about every activity in school. They have shown what green freshmen can really do. Although they were supposed to be young, they jumped into the old routine. For the future they have great hopes. ★ First Row (left to right): Dorothy Shattuclc. Jeanette McDonough. Dorothy Mitchell, Laura Stagner. Mary Lou McDonough. Gail Winstead.
