May Day was held inside-Evelyn ,Nnderson was Queen. Promotion to 12-B in January. The Senior Prom was at Portage llotel. Class dues began to await us, and officers of the Fatal Senior Class were elected. These officers tried to otiiciate at the meetings while the arguments on the colors, rings, pins. and sweaters went on undisturbed by authority. Pins and rings arrived. Then there was the Hi-Y Censowe dance and the Class Play,- XYhimsy , featuring none other than Gil Voorhees. Other similar events took their toll and gave us sleepless nights and days in study halls.
