As Juniors We Happily Assumed Our junior year was memorable. At the Halloween dance, we awed the dancers when Dr. Frankenstein's monster appeared on the scene. La Fiesta, our Mardi Gras dance, brought a capacity crowd. The flaming colors of the decorations added gaiety to the pre-Lenten dance. Three bus loads of us, excited juniors, toured to Lansing. We thoroughly enjoyed the trip and learned a great deal about state government. Seeing the legislature in session and meeting Governor John Swain- son topped the day. Our last important activity was the Junior- Senior banquet. We decorated the gym, waited on tables, entertained the seniors and danced to our hearts content. Toward the end of the evening, we sang all our old fav- orites. A grand march closed the gala event. Junior class treasurer, Raymond Mandry, de- scribed to his fellow class officers, Vice-President Mory Ann Romeo, President Kenneth Stockfish and Secretary Geraldine Gadzinski, their financial status calling attention to the fact that they would have to sponsor more junior activities if they expected to pay for the Junior-Senior ban- quet.
