JOHN BROOKE l Seemed Semester Student Cie neil The second semester Student Council was well under way by the end of January. The first and most important problem brought up for dis- cussion was the project of bettering the relations and sports- manship among the schools in the Western Conference and all the schools throughout the state. Carson was the instigator of this program and relayed their ideas to Sparks and to the other schools of this area. The possibility of organizing an Honor Society based on scholarship was discussed, and the idea was left in the plan- ning stages. The problem of better Student Body Programs was discussed and the Judging Committee made some great strides toward creating more interest in the Student Programs. The conscientious efforts of the i952 Student Council were a vital part in the affairs of the Sparks High School Student Body. President is Nl NE Sgilpt IL B Dom NELSON 092. ,class Ba Am?

Yet, this past year has left many happy memories in the hearts of the graduating Seniors. The Seniors were active all through the year in extra-curricular activities. In the field of sports, sixteen Senior boys earned letters in football. Basketball season showed five Senior boys playing on the Varsity team. Looking at Girls' sports, we see that Donna Ronchetti, Lucille Nelson, Shirley Hancock, Irene Ruiz and Claire Risley were particularly outstanding in G. A. A. lndirectly connected with sports were the five yell-leaders-three of whom were Seniors. We shall always remember the lusty cheers of head cheerleader Jayne Williams and cheerleaders Nora Stanton and Donna Ronchetti, at our football and basketball games. Always appearing at the games and leading our own band were the five pert maiorettes and the drum maiorette. Three Seniors were maiorettes-Lola Clark, Gael Sullivan and Irene Phoenix. Drum maiorette was Gerry Bishop. Flagbearers were Seniors Ann Cunningham, Juanita Creveling, Louise Davidson and Phyllis Boyer. The Senior class was also well represented in the band with six members-Norman Cummins, Bev Sue Hug, Wanda Eason, Marge Eaton, Shirley Allen and Neil Baker. Another extra-curricular activity is the field of Dramatics. The All-School Play, held in November was entitled f'It's Spring Again. The cast of thirteen included ten Seniors-Shirley Allen, Jayne Williams, Bev Hug, Harry Ericson, Gerry Bishop, Don Nelson, Neil Baker, Lola Clark, Keith Odle and Ann Cunningham. The Senior Play and the annual Forensic, held in the Spring, were also successful, with many Seniors participating. Under the leadership of Miss Naveran and Mr. Robb, Senior Class Advisors, all Senior social events, especially Senior Cut Day and the Senior Ball were rousing successes. Now, as the school year of T952 comes to a close, the Senior Class will leave the hallowed halls of Sparks High. Nevertheless, they will long be remembered as one of the most outstanding classes ever to graduate from Sparks High School,
