Rotiom row: Benita Ulivas, Don Sutherland, Marilou VVater'housc. ezzior Gfass Way back in the year 1942, excited by the anticipation of the school days ahead of us, we the class of '55, in scattered kindergartens throughout the land were initiated into our new roles as students. Through the years classmates have moved on to other halls of learning, and new classmates have come to take their places. Each year holds its share of memories of event following upon event. And, then at long last, arrived this our year of '55, surpassing all others and adding a fitting climax for a class that is really alive-the Class of 1955. The election of class officers was the finst big event of our senior year. Those selected were: president, Paul Tebbg vice-president, Phil Tebbg secretary. Benita Ulivasg treasurer, Marilou Waterhouse, and student representative, Don Su- therland. The class advisons were Miss Nancy Crane and Mr. Ed McCoy. After a few weeks of getting into the swing of things, many seniors realized it would take a little extra effort to become alumni in '56, It took a few bad grades on civics tests and a few ses- sions in Miss Cranets bonehead English class to make us realize our senior year was going to keep us busy, but along with the work we have had our share of fun. During football season, many seniors played on the team, and George Kovalenko was selected on both the All-Conference and All State teams. Anyone not playing football wore himself out rooting. With a very lively skit and some roar- ing yells, we won both the skit and the pep jug contests. Ten Another win was scored by the '55 seniors when we became the first class in history to get l00'Z in the purchasing of annuals. One of the big highlights of the year was the annual Senior Ball on December 11. A lot of fun and hard work went into making 'Underwater Fantasy' one of the nicest and moist successful Senior Balls ever put on at Sumner High School. The unique decorations brought many glowing compliments from those who attended. During the basketball season a large number of seniors played on one of the most successful hoop teams in years. Tom Knutson was honored by being named center on the All-Conference team. The seniors became busier and busier as time for the senior play, Brother Goose , approached. After the committees and cast had worked for many weeks, the play was presented in the new gymnasium, the first play ever staged in the new building. It was a great success, and everyone enjoyed the party after the last performance. Spring brought work, fun, play, and a special thought to the seniors, the thought of graduation. The wonderful event occurred on June 7. Vale- dictorian honors went to Betty Vaughan, while Betty Mattson was named satulatorian. As we pass on to our new stations in life, each senior leaves Sumner High with this thought in mind: Whatever we do, and wherever we go, We'll be happy because we know We were the class that was really alive 'Cause we were the class of '55!
