SENIOR CLASS When one more school year has been concluded, we Seniors will have attained that well-earned privilege of adding another graduating class to the history of Southmont. Each of us returned to school for this last term with a firm determination to enjoy an eventful and successful year. Since each Senior realized the tasks which were to be accomplished, We worked together. under the guidance of Miss Weber, our adviser, and Hugo Larson, our president, to enjoy a prosperous and exceedingly joyous year. As the annual first major activity, we began our year with the prepara- tions for a tea. The purpose of the tea was to acquaint our mothers with our teachers as well as to inform them about our prospective duties. Since we had chosen patriotism as the theme of our activities throughout the school year, we employed patriot motifs in the decoration and entertainment of the tea. We presented a pageant entitled Youth and Democracy which was written by the members of the class and highly commended by our guests. Our decorations consisted of a circular centerpiece painted red, white, and blue over which was suspended a replica of the liberty belly our place cards were blue stars upon which was placed a mounted flag. After the thrill of the tea had subsided, we began working on our Senior play which was entitled Good Morning . We worked constantly for four weeks not only in rehearsals but also in boosting ticket sales. The play was given on November 26, and in spite of undesirable weather, was a great financial success. We started the New Year with new enthusiasm by having another success chalked up in our favor. This time' it was the annual senior dance held on Ianuary 2. We chose as our theme the 4l Frolic . Baby New Year dominated the scene amid the red and white decorative streamers and the 4l's which hung from the ceiling. Everyone enjoyed the rythmic melodies of Ierry Gray and his popular orchestra. For the remainder of the second semester, we concentrated on the pro- duction of the yearbook. The staff, with the instruction of Miss Weber and the support of the class, planned and wrote the contents of the book. We en- deavored to improve the contents and general appearance of it with several new ideas which added to the enjoyment of its construction. On Iune l We attended the Baccalaureate service, and finally, on june 3, we concluded this chapter of our lives with a most impressive com- mencement program at which we received our diplomas signifying that we had completed those studies necessary for graduation.
