10 ' 4 6 ' 46 CLASS HISTORY We, ' the dignified seniors (as we are sometimes called) have come a long way since the day we entered high school in 1942 as green freshmen. With not too much poise, but confidence in our hearts, we fumbled thru our first class meeting; and we think we did as well as any freshmen in our decisions. We elected Joseph Susson, President; Richard Plante, Vice-President; Lena Desjourdy, Secretary; Eleanor Peterson, Treasurer; and Robert Brigham, A. A. Treasurer. Miss Lepine was elected our class adviser. We chose royal blue and gold as our class colors. Two weeks later our superiors, the sophomores initiated us and we became official freshmen. Completing our first year successfully, we returned the following September as sophomores. We elected the following as class officers: Lena Desjourdy, President; Dorothy Davagian, Vice-President; Richard Plante, Secretary; Norton Clarkson, Treasurer; and Herman Stienstra, A. A. Treasurer. Miss Donnelly was chosen as our class adviser. We did unto others as had been done unto us — you guessed it, we initiated the freshmen. We also gave the Junior Return Party that we had been unable to give during our freshman year. Three of our classmates: Dorothy Davagian, Norton Clarkson, and Robert Brigham took part in the A. A. Play, The Million Dollar Kid. As juniors we elected Robert Brigham, President; Dorothy Dava- gian, Vice-President; Eleanor Peterson, Secretary; Norton Clarkson, Treasurer; and Richard Plante, A. A. Treasurer. Mr. Butler was our class adviser. We held the traditional Junior Prom with new evening gowns, corsages, and nervous but capable, young escorts. Our goal was finally reached — we became Seniors. We elected as class officers: Richard Plante, President; Dorothy Davagian, Vice- President; Eleanor Peterson, Secretary; Lena Desjourdy, Treasurer, and Robert Brigham, A. A. Treasurer. Miss Donnelly was our class adviser. We finally received our class rings that we had ordered during our junior year. In December the following seniors took part in the Senior Play, A Ready-Made Family . Dorothy Davagian, Lena Desjourdy, Herman Stienstra, Jean LaCoy, Richard Plante, Robert Brigham, and Eleanor Peterson.
