SENIOR BALL Amid a cozy winter setting, couples and chaperones had a wonderful time at the Fan- tasy In White, Senior Ball, which was held in the old gym. At the north end a mural depicting a winter scene consisted of black trees sharply outlined against a light grey sky with an ice pond in front. Glistening silver and white fir trees set at different places along the two sides of the room and artificial snow sprayed at frequent intervals gave a wintry effect. From the center of the floor Art Dales' four piece band furnished enchanting music for the festivities, streamers coming down from a false ceiling formed a large icicle. Miss Fowler and Mr. Miles, the senior class advisers, worked with the committees to make the ball a big success. JUNIOR PROM Couples danced in a romantic setting of the old and beautiful buildings of Venice. The iuniors concluded their big year of activities with the Prom Carnival in Venice. The big mural at the south end portrayed a gondolier poling his boat in one of the city's many canals, with buildings in the back- ground. Along the side were several gondo- liers and a mock setting of water. Strings of pennants of varied carnival colors were ex- tended from one center point to form a false ceiling. Danny Holstrom's band played under a re- production of one of the famous arches for which Venice is noted. Mrs. Hodge and Mr. Roberts contributed many ideas and helped the chairmen. left-Grand March at Junior Prom, Right: JUNIOR PROM COMMITTEE CHAIRMEN-Row 3: Jack Salvadalena, Mike Mclntyre, Ron Rider, Dave Stecher, Bill Thompson, Roy Webster, Row 2: Chuck Stocker, Bruce DeWa'd, Pat Peters, Rose Anderson, Kay Keaton, Row T: Mrs. Hodge, Adviser, Ilene Jacobson, Sally Johnson, Nancy Wardlaw, Nancy Schott, Claire Bozett, Diane Riley.

WE'LL HAVE THESE SENOR CLASS HISTORY As freshmen, the seniors started out by get- ting acquainted and learning the twists and turns in their new environment, the main job being to get adjusted to high school life. A big change for most of them was going into a new life different fromfthat of junior high. The group worked hard on the Orthopedic displays and produce gathering but still came out on the losing end the first year. Some of the class participated in freshmen sports and eventually made the first team in football and the varsity squad for basketball. The senior girls of this year had a good start as freshmen by being on committees and helping in Girls' Club. This experience has carried through with the result that many of the senior girls have earned ribbons for serv- ice work around school and a few girls have received a Girls' Club pin, a great honor. The top judging teams and F. F. A.'ers got their start as freshmen too and through the span of four years have worked up to a high standard in agriculture. Starting out in the fall of the sophomore year several boys turned out for football. Some just gained experience for future years but a few were good enough to earn their high school letter for the first time. Again, as sophomores, they worked on the Orthopedic and cornered third place for dis- play which was pretty good for only the sec- ond year's effort. The boys were represented on the basket- ball and baseball teams and several were practicing hard to make tennis and track teams. Many of the class were members of clubs such as Lambda Kai Epsilon, F. H. A., Begin- ner's Luck, F. F. A., and others. They were represented in the choir, band and glee clubs. In the junior year extremely capable officers were elected. The class held a very successful Junior Prom in the spring with almost every- one helping on the different committees. Also, juniors beat seniors that year in a play day that was held on Campus Day. The class was second for the Orthopedic display and were proud to have achieved this honor after the amount of hard work that had gone into such a worthy cause. Several class members were elected officers of various organizations, and there were junior class representatives on the staffs of Annual, Arrowhead, and Beginner's Luck. Perhaps the most thrilling occasion was on Campus Day when the class beat the seniors of that year - by several points at that - to PAGE TWENTY-TWO come out on top in the play day. During the senior year, several from the class were on the football team and tried their best for their school and their team. Four sen- ior boys who had started playing basketball as freshmen were on the varsity squad. Sev- eral seniors were on the track and tennis teams. A few of the boys were on the top team for the district and several received hon- orable mention for commendable playing. Again, as in the past three years, they work- ed hard on the Orthopedic. The whole class had to sit back and take notice as the juniors copped first place for having the best display. This seemed to make competition keen and they tried all the harder. Several members of the class were on the F. F. A. judging teams and parliamentary pro- cedure teams and went to other schools to participate in contests to win school honors. The class had one member on the debate team, and seniors participated also in other school functions. A few girls were in the All State Choir and represented us at Spokane and other schools. The class, as a whole, brought home several honors and trophies for their school. Most class members will remember the hi- Iarious time the cast of all seniors had putting on Best Foot Forward. Some also will re- member the experiences they had participating in the all school plays of previous years. The seniors attended a banquet near the end of the school year. Faculty advisers and the seniors had a wonderful time enjoying one of their last big occasions before graduating. During the month of May a picnic was plan- ned by the class advisers and the seniors. lt has been the custom in recent years to hold the picnic at Lake Wilderness lodge and resort. Seniors agreed this was one of the best times of their lives. The parents in association with the P. T. A. had put on an all night party at the Elk's Club for the graduating seniors. This was well re- ceived and the seniors looked forward to the party enthusiastically. All in all seniors were sad to think of hav- ing to leave the wonderful school which for the past four years had been so much a part of their daily lives. The good times, the dis- appointments, and, most of all, the keen com- petition from the other classes will be remem- bered. Also remembered will be the hard work of getting grades up and the trying times when, despite a great deal of hard work, achievement seemed to elude them.

Every Saturday morning, sleepy-eyed juniors found their way to the high school kitchen where they canned applesauce, crabapples, pears, peaches and prunes. It was easy to tell who the juniors were by their scratches and bruises from climbing up, and sliding down trees to pick the fruit to be canned. The juniors also partici- pated in the Orthopedic Program which was held on October 26. Sidewalk Cafe was the theme of the after game dance the juniors held after the game with Burlington. Card tables covered with checkered tableclothes gave the illusion of a Parisean cafe. Entertainment was provided at decorated with cut-outs of old fashioned lamp posts had the players' names on them.
