Senior History The senior class has among its members fifteen students who en- rolled in Sidney schools in 1933. For twelve years these students have been the nucleus around which has been built the present group of sen- iors. These are: Susan Boyd, Janet Martin, Marjorie Anthony, Donna Marsh, Patty Richards, Darrell Koehn, Betty Augenstein, Joyce Baum- bach, John Harte, Bill Wehmiller, Dick Wright, Shirley Simms, Roy Marsh, LaVerne Couch, and Stanley Perry. From those first - F' A f ll days in school, each year Was a stepping stone to higher education. Final- ly in the fall of 1940, we found ourselves on the threshold of our high school career. A greener group would have been hard to find, but in a few weeks, we had everything under control. As a result of our first class election, the following officers were chosen: Governor, Roy Marsh, Lt. Governor, Jack Coates, Secretary of State, Louise Downs, Secretary of Treasury, Marian Wiedeburg. Our final social get-together was a picnic at Rattle Snake Cave. Returning the next fall as sophomores, we smiled when we saw the new students coming up to take our places. Again, Roy Marsh was elected Governor, Susan Boyd was chosen Lt. Governor, Marjorie An- thony, Secretary of State, and Marian Wiedeburg, Secretary of Treas- ury. We participated in the scrap drive, and were defeated by the jun- iors. As a result we sponsored a Victory dance, held in the school audi- torium. We wound up the year with the traditional class picnic at the Legion Park. CEightl

Senior History The junior year was a very busy one, as the major part of it was filled with activities to raise money for the Junior-Senior Banquet. The class play, Spring Fever, was one of the highlights of the year. This production was a great success and did much to increase the treasury. It was a momentous occasion when we received our class rings, for they were the symbol of true upperclassmen. The climax of our junior year was the Junior-Senior Banquet. The event took place in the Sidney Auditorium when the Lazy J Cow- hands entertained the Bar S'ers in a western corral. The tables were placed in the setting of cacti, sagebrush, and saddles. Hired hands servd the grub from the back of a chuck wagon. Officers chosen for the junior year werez Marge Anthony, Gov- ernorg Louis Downs, Lt. Governor, Susan Boyd, Secretary of State, Jan- et Martin, Secretary of Treasury. The senior year was the busiest of ali. Officers elected to rule over the senior state were: Beverly Story, Governor, Janet Martin, Lt. Governor, Su- san Boyd, Secretary of State, Joyce Baumbach, Secretary of Treasury. As was traditional, on the morning of October 31, the blue and gold banner of the senior class flew from the flagpole. The old schoolhouse seemed unusually quiet, and the absence of the mighty seniors was noticed by all. Getting measured for caps and gowns, sponsoring school dances, ordering announcements, and last but not least, publishing this Trail have been the main projects of our final year. rNinev
