Clmf of Forgz-.raven We also have outstanding girls in our class. Shir- ley Mochel was chosen as one of the attendants of the Homecoming Queen. Then one of the most con- stant cliques about school was composed of Margaret Yakey, Rose Mairi Crane, Kathryn Williams, Kathryn Fox, Suzanne Clark, Denise Meyer, and Mary Lou Hawk. Come on, girls, give with the gossip. We really had some super-grade-getters to whom a 5-point average was not an unusual thing. Yes, they were Carl Courtright, Leon Hutchings, Suzanne Clark, and Arnold Strohl. Who were nearly always late for G.A.A.? Rose Mairi Crane and Denise Meyer. It was strange that Harry Davis and Wayne Howse always had so much to talk about every afternoon after school. In December, Stanley Spesard, Phillip Strohl, jack Lee, and Olan Hurst carried off F.F.A. awards. To add more glory to our class Melvin Barricklow, Dick Lively, and Carl Courtright had important roles in the operetta, Jerry of Jericho Road. Just before the Easter vacation we had a swell party with plenty of games, dancing, and good food. With rc ret we leave our so homore ear and its S P Y good times. Next year we shall be grown-ups-uppeb classmen. l-'IRST ROW: Denise Meyer, Margaret Yakcy, Kathryn Williams, Stanley Spec.: d, Wanda Sain, Eugene Wakeland, Ione Rulcy, Robert Phcglcy.

Ckm of Forty-eight From our first day in high school we have loved organizations. We have helped bolster the G.A.A., S.H.E., F.F.A., Chorus, and Ovejitas. Frances Fisher and Esther Sims assisted Miss Herron in the library during their free periods. We freshmen also were thrilled at the mention of parties and dances. Norma Stewardson, Virginia Herron, Joan Bolinger, and Rose- mary Younger could be seen at most of the dances. By the way, Norma was also one of the cheerleaders, but she couldn't attend the regional tournament because of the mumps. Evidently Patsy Reider, Virginia Danne- berger, and Joyce Neese were afraid of the bogey man because they were always seen walking home to- gether. This year we brought into high school another Schultz-Joy! She and Shirley Raab were the most powerful members of the freshmen girls' volleyball team, but Joan Bolinger surpassed all of the girls in basketball. Our boys were very much interested in athletics, especially Ralph Bly, Billy Sands, Jack Lich- tenwalrer, and Junior Martz. Rough and tough Eugene Johnson is our secret weapon for basketball in the future. We shall never forget the Hne work George Wilch and Jack Lichtenwalter did in the pep meet- ing skits. Lucille Severe, Jeanne Barden, Edith Beck- ett, and Reta Bishop were quiet and demure l110St of the time, but we know that little Lucille was literally swept off her feet one time while square dancing. Were Helen Rezinas, Jack Davis, and Jimmy Thompson real- ly studying or just going through all of the motions in the study hall? And what about boys like Rex Shasteen, who asked how to spell a word during a spelling contest! In April, on Friday 13, we gave a hard luck party in the gym. There were musical selections by Joyce Thurber, Joan Bolinger, and Rosemary Younger. Norma Stewardson and Virginia Herron danced, and Jack Lichtenwalter gave imitations. Our Hrst year in high school is finished. We are no longer greeng we know our way about now. Next year we shall have a chance to laugh at the newcomers as we were laughed at this year.
