Senior History The Class of '58 began its freshman year with an enrollment of 107 students. Carolee Knittle, Ken Carlsen, Suzanne Ely, Mike Neill, and Ron Rydberg were chosen as its officers. Iudie Funkhouser represented the fresh- men as Homecoming queen attendant. Music and athletics were the primary extra-curricular interests of these students. As they entered the silly sophomore stage, they elected Mike Neill, Carolee Knittle, Ron Rydberg, Suzanne Ely and Iudie Funkhouser as their officers. Karen Williamson was named as a cheerleader and Delores Liver- more was chosen as the sophomore Homecoming queen attendant. Two members, Suzanne Ely and Anne Topham, were honored by being selected for the All State orchestra and chorus respectively. The jolly juniors began an exciting year by electing Mike Neill, Suzanne Ely, Ron Rydberg, Carolee Knittle, and Iudie Funkhouser as officers. Karen Williamson, Iudie Funkhouser and Betty Rankin were chosen to be cheerleaders. Barbara Flynn was Homecoming queen attendant. Carolee Knittle and Mike Neill were chosen to sing in the All State chorus, and Suzanne Ely and Mary Ossian to play in the All State band over the Thanks- giving holidays. The Leland Austin History awards were presented to Bill Tarpenning and Miriam Welty. One of the biggest events of the year was the junior class play, Susan Steps Out which was a success. The climax of this eventful year came with the junior-senior prom when we entered into the beautiful Enchanted Forest. The Grand Old Seniors started the year by electing officers who were Mike Neill, Iudie Funkhouser, Ray Lutz, Betty Rankin, and Marian Welty. Senior cheerleaders included Betty, Rankin, Iudie Funkhouser, and Karen Williamson. The Homecoming queen was Betty Rankin with Mary Ossian and Barbara Flynn as her senior attendants. Sherry Bertram was selected as head majorette of the marching band. Soon the members of the class of '58 will go their separate ways, but may their high school years be considered the best years of their lives. l17l
