SENIORS END HIGH SCHOOL CAREER ART SEHLIN. President. PEGGY WOODWARD. Treasurer; JOANNE OLSON. Secretary; JOHN KUNTZ. Vice President SEHLIN LEADS CLASS OF '48 BEVENSEE, SUNDT GAIN SCHOLASTIC HONORS The class of '48, under the leadership of Art Sehlin, assisted by the other class officers. John Kuntz. JoAnne Olson, and Peggy Woodward, has finally arrived at its ultimate goal, after three years of fun and hard work. In our sophomore year, many of us were new to Park, and all of us were new to the confusion of high school. That was the year we learned to dance, and also learned to know each other. Our junior year was even more exciting. We presented our class play Dulcy,” sold magazines, and attended our first Junior-Senior prom. Last, but not least, we became seniors. We opened the year with the smash hit comedy Arsenic and Old Lace” as our Senior Class Play. With the money from our junior year and the additional money ROBERT BEVENSEE from the play, we Valedictorian were able to join with the class of '47 in presenting the school with a new basketball scoreboard. Now, graduation has come, with its Senior Prom, its class night, and senior breakfast, and finally Baccalaureate and Commencement. We're going to miss Park, but we will never forget it. The senior class is indeed proud of its two highest ranking members for 1948. Bob Bevensee, valedictorian, has been active as a debater, class play member and Hi-Y president. His scholastic rating was 3.848. Dick Sundt, salutatorian, rated a close second to Bob in rank with a rating of 3.783. Dick is the editor of the Echowan and was also a senior class play member. Congratulations go to these two boys and to the others who have ranked high in the class of '48. D. A. R. AWARD WINNER Mary Dow, one of the most active seniors at Park, was chosen by her fellow seniors and the faculty to receive the ’ coveted D. A. R. award this year. Each year one senior girl is picked for this honor. She attends a banquet with girls selected from other Minnesota schools, at which banquet one girl is selected to attend the national banquet at Washington, D. C. RICHARD SUNDT Salutatorian MARY DOW D. A. R. Winner
