An election was held in April for the at- tendants of the May Court. VVe chose Antoinette Otzel and Jean Black. Our final class meeting indicated that our officers for our sophomore class would be: presi- dent, Joseph Breskig vice-president, Earl VVolfg secretary, Jean Black, treasurer, Paul Mijacg historian, Josephine Custin. 1951-52 Mrs. Brown, Miss llospers, and Miss Myers were our homeroom teachers. We sold stationery and wallets to add to our growing treasury. October 31 was the date of our class party, a Halloween celebration, where we were enter- tained by members of the class. We were included in the operetta and the Christmas program for the first time. We also sponsored the entire Easter assembly, presented to the high school on April 11, 1952. lylay Day was held on May 2. The sopho- more attendants were Rosemarie Yurcic and Jean Black. We chose class colors of gold and choco- late brown: class flower, yellow roseg and the class motto, Today decides tomorrowf' hlany students from our class participated in the exchange assembly with lN'Tiddletown: Walter Siegfried, Richard Cracey, Phyllis Im- brognio, Jane Kline, Susie Doyle, and Bruce Mason. Class officers selected for our junior year were: president, Joseph Breskig vice-president, Robert floppleg treasurer, Nancy Dwyer, secre- tary, Jean Black, and historian, Rosemarie Yurcie 1952-53 Our homeroom teachers were lXlrs. Brown and Mr. Edwards. This was the first year the Color Guard consisted entirely of girls. We were represented by four members: Jane Kline, Thelma Van Aken, Rosemarie Yurcic, and Nancy Dwyer. Qther members of the marching unit were: majorettes-Lorraine Muzic, Bette Lebo, Betty Cilbert, and Josephine Custing band members- Lester Aungst, and Bruce Masong drum major- Walter Siegfried. The class sold Christmas candy to add to the expanding treasury and conducted two other successful money-making affairs: instead of a class party we held an April Showers Dance which was very successful, Miss Hospers was in charge of our junior class play, The Late George Apleyf' The Junior-Senior Prom was held May 1953 in the high school gym. The junior class decor- ated in the colors of the senior class, blue and steel. The theme of the prom was Moonlight and Roses. 1953-54 In September, 1953, 56 seniors returned to begin their last year. The seniors sponsored dances on Saturday nights after home football games. Several of our classmates helped to push the football team into the championship for the third year in succes- sion. This was the second year we had a Christ- mas tree in front of the high school. Many of the seniors helped make this possible. Art stu- dents painted a beautiful Christmas scene which was placed on the front of the building. The seniors also helped decorate the auditorium. We ordered and received our name cards, picked our commencement announcements, and chose our class song in preparation for gradua- tion. As guests of the junior class, we enjoyed a memorable evening at the Junior-Senior Prom, with the gym decorated in the theme of April Showersf' The class banquet at Farlingis Hotel was another affair we will long remember. Salem Lutheran Church was the scene of our Baccalaureate Service. Significantly. the last page of our class his- tory ended on the first day of June, the night of Commencement. Fifty-six young men and women tumed their backs on high school and their faces hopefully toward the future. Rosemarie Yurcic, Historian 15
