MISS KALP This is the year nineteen hundred and fifty-a memorable year because we are graduating. To thoseof us who will be going from school to a job this year represents the end of an era. To those of us who are going to college it seems a big step in our chosen direc- tion. Now suppose we turn the clock back four years and do a little remi- niscing. Remember when . . . We were freshmen wandering' through the unfamiliar halls of Somer- set High School, tip-toeing timorously past the office, gaping at lofty seniors. Everything was new and strange. How embarrassed we were when we floun- dered into the wrong room and were met by snickers and wisecracks. We began to know our classmates better after the Freshman Halloween Party, planned and executed under the direc- tion of Jack Gilmour, our new president. Our freshmen year passed quickly and the idea that we must work hard so me old man'll be proud a me passed quickly too. Our Sophomore year dawned brightly. We got into the swing of things by selling at a football concession to earn money for the Sophomore-Se- nior Dance. Our dance was held in Feb- ruary, on St. Valentines Day. The gym was gayly decorated by hearts - big hearts, little hearts, fat hearts, thin hearts, happy hearts, and sad hearts. Under the leadership of a new pres- ident, Doran Walker, the dance was a great success. This was a difficult year, especially in English. Most of our dif- ficulties were due to the fact that we had the idea: Why bother to study, look at the fun we can have. Then came our Junior year. We were on the last lap of our struggle. Our competent president, Doran Walker, was re-elected. We met new teachers, new personalities, and most of us were introduced formally to the office. We were beginning to work together. Our class was becoming a unit. Due to this cooperation the Junior Prom, called Some Enchanted Evening, pulled thru remarkably. The Seniors of '49 neglect- ed to return the compliment when we pulled them through the mud. Thus dragged out our junior year, and we were confident of our grades for we knew that, They never check the pa- pers.
