Our adviser was Mrs. Stevens The Staff members worked diligently to sell advertisements to the business- men of Shannon and the surrounding communities in order to meet the expenses involved in putting out the yearbook. Each member was also responsible for several articles in the annual. These were written up as the events took place, copy and layout sheets were prepared and proofread and, finally the printed pages were assembled and bound. A great deal of time and effort is always expended in the publication of an annual and we all hope that you, our readers, enjoy reading the book as much as we enjoyed composing it. The staff oflicers are: Editor-in-chief-Carol Woessner Assistant Editor-Jane Woessner Business Manager-Jean Cole Secretary Wilmer Jacobs Photographer Ronald Wenzel Adviser Mrs Stevens Awards The honors of being Valedictorian and Salutatorian of 1951 were given to Mary Woessner and Carol Rodermel respectively The D A R Award for the year 1951 and 1952 was given to Donna Paul Babe Ruth Sportsmanship Awards were given to Donna Paul and Wilmer Jacobs Carol Woessner and Wilmer Jacobs received the American Legion Awards The winners of these awards were chosen by the faculty and students Junlor Semor Banquet The Junior Senior Banquet of 1951 was held at the LaFayette Hotel Llinton Iowa on May 12 1951 The Juniors presented each senior with a red rose their class flower The tables were beautifully decorated to carry out the Dutch theme All of the guests enjoyed a delicious turkey dinner and afterwards settled back tr listen to the short program which consisted of Invocation Verlyn Rosenstiel Response Richcard Nesemeier Speech Mr Tweedy The members of the Junior and senior classes faculty and guests enjoyed dancing to the music of Bud Runge and his orchestra This IS always a night that is eagerly looked forward to and not easily forgotten 38 I O Welcome -...-.-... ......
