We started out with twenty-one pupils but after a few weeks Christine Hink- ley came to join our ranks making a total of twenty-two. In the middle of the year Carol Lisherness left us taking us back to our pre- vious number again. The following class oflicers were elected: President MELVIN WHITE Vice President GLORIA TEDFORD Secretary PATRICIA SULLIVAN Treasurer JUDITI-I LAMBERT From our class, Eunice Voter and Melvin White were elected for the Student Council. Our activities this past year began with the initiation of the Freshmen, a food sale and we put on a harvest ball in October. During the second week of school we initiated the Fresh- men. They really looked funny as they paraded on stage before an assembly of people. But they all showed good sportsmanship. A great number from our class participated in Basketball, Baseball, and Softball and sev- eral have had parts in the plays and Minstrel Show. Mr. Buxton has been our class advisor, and I'm sure we must all admit that he's got what it takes to make a good teacher, patience. We have all enjoyed the past year with Mr. Bux- ton and our many activities in Strong High. -11-
