We had leaders, too, in our Senior Class. In the Student Council, Carlton Jones was president and Maynard Eaton, vice president. Frances Hope was secretary of both the Seaford High and Sussex County Student Councils. Jim Milliken was treasurer. Jane Ward was president of the Sussex County Student Council Association. She was also president of our Senior-Junior Tri-Hi-Y Club. Bill Petrea was the Hi-Y Club president and the Future Teachers of America elected Ruth Sprenkle as their president. Carol Dunaway stepped into her position as Editor of the Blue Jay. Gail Foster and Jane Ward took the job as Co-Editors of the Aloha. Judy Ward was elected president of our Future Homemakers of America. Three important events of our Senior year were the bake, the class play, and the class dance. On November 19, 1955, we held our class bake and were very successful. The weather was wet and drizzly but still we all had a swell time and were very happy with the success of the bake. The Senior play Junior Miss was presented on December 9. Many hours were spent learning lines, securing props, and preparing scenery, but every- one enjoyed it and felt it was worth the effort. The main characters of the play were Harry Graves, the father of two teen-age daughters, played by Dick Botdorf, Grace Graves, the sophisticated wife, was played by Gail Foster. Judy Dennis played the part of Lois, a sixteen-year-old girl with many, too many, boyfriends. Judy, her sister, who was a very imaginative thirteen year old with a huge appetite, was por- trayed by Frances Hope. Last but not least, was Fluffy, Judy's impulsive friend, played by Patsy Seney. There were many other characters all portrayed wonderfully well by our class members. A few were Hilda, Kay Boyce, J. B. Curtis, Jim Trice, Ellen, Ruth Sprenkle, Willis, Horace Holland, Barlow, Vernon Timmons, Haskell, John Hartman, Western Union Girl, JoAnn Allen. The Senior dance was given on December 16. The three fellows in charge were Jim Trice, Carlton Jones, and Bobby Chaffinch. With winter decorations, the Christmas Dance was a gala affair. So the year went until spring when scholarships and awards were presented to many of the outstanding Seniors. Will we ever forget our last assembly and the long walk up the aisle with the strains of the Alma Mater ringing in our ears, or the sights of senior name cards in every nook and corner of the school? The Baccalaureate service was held on June 3 and Commencement was on June 8, 1956. And thus, our high school careers ended and we were face to face with the outside world. Many times in the years to come, we will look back to our days at SEAFORD HIGH SCHOOL, OUR ALMA MATER.
