enlor emories That long awaited year, 1954, has finally arrived, and it finds ten eager Seniors ready to pass through the door of SCHS into the light of the world before us. Thinking of the years behind us, we find that it seems such a short time ago that sixteen excited Freshmen met together in the huge assembly room in the high school for the first time. About two weeks later, our same group assembled again, this time in the spotlight of Freshman initiation. Our entrance into the school was as follows: Evelyn Huntington, Shirley Craig, George Enyeart, Florence Dodge, Tess Cox, Jim Knudsen, Helen Lundgren, George Culbreath, Ben Throckmorton, Georgianna Lightburn, and Gertie Jo Wyatt. Each person was to impersonate in his dress such people as convicts, comic strip characters, Indians, and so forth. Janet Swanson, also a member of this class, was not present at the initiation. After staging a return party for the upperclassmen, we spent the rest of the year in great enthusiasm and in anticipation of the years before us. - September, 1951, brought with it changes in our class membership. We lost Tess, Georgianna, Ben, Rhoda, and Betty, but we gained Pat Barringer. Caye McL.ucas and Ronnie Steele enrolled in the middle of the year. A money making project that year was a play entitled Bashfi11 Bobby. At the end of the school year, we gave a picnic at Glenwood Springs. I ' A remarkable change in class membership was again noted in September of 1952. We lost Caye, Pat, and Ronnie, all of whom changed schools. Gertie J'o was wed to Bert Roof: they now have a son. ln October, Evelyn became the bride of Bill Schneidewind. At the end of the first semester, Shirley left us to marry Manny Ashlock. To balance our losses, we gained Barbara Cox, Audrey Glaum, Sondra Barbour, and Kenny Kirkland. Rej oining us were Tess, Rhoda, and Ben. This year was filled to the brim with activities for us. In November we helped the Seniors present Our Miss Brooks. ln April we decoratednfor the Prorn, and planned the .Tunior-Senior Banquet. Q We started our last year with only eight of our original gang, plus Barbara and Audrey. This has been a very big and important year for us. Our Junior-Senior play Quiet Weekend , presented in November, was a huge success. Our greatest money-making project was our Carnival, in February. ' During the four years, George Enyeart was always on the first string in basket- ball: the other boys were also very active on the team. Shirley, Evelyn, and Helen has all been cheerleaders. A Because of the Annual deadline, this goes to press before the Prom, Baccalau- reate, and Graduation. We believe that these main events'are going to mean more to us than the events of previous years, because we will be leaving our school chums A and will be meeting the demands of the life before us. Although we'l1 never forget the best four years of our lives spent in SCHS, we are each anxious to strike out into a higher level of life and to strive for the sunshine in our future.
