Senior Class Officers RICHARD WIATER, President GERALD PHILLIPS, Secretary ROBERT MERTENS, Vice President Class History Our memorable four years of higher learning began in September of 1949. At that time we numbered sixty-two, eager, green, freshiesf' We took initiation in our stride and spent our Freshmen year just getting aquainted with Thorp High School. Our first year passed before us very quickly. In no time we found ourselves Sophisticated Sophomoresf' The first thing we did was revengefully initiate our innocent successors. We gave them what, we thought, was the most terrible initiation yet. That year the Booster Club honored us when they chose Rosann Ebben, Rosanne Conway, and Margie Reichert as Junior Cheerleaders. Our first year as upper classmen was a very eventful one. We Jolly Juniors began a year of much success by winning first place on our Homecoming float. Our Junior Class Play, Too Sweet For Sixteen, under the direction of Miss Dunn, proved to be very successful. Then came the biggest social event of our high school career. King Tom Qualle and his Queen, Virginia Kinas reigned over one of the most beautiful and most success- ful Proms Thorp has ever had. The theme, Moonlight and Roses, was beautifully portrayed with an artificial moon, thousands of roses, and a large rock garden. We were justly proud to have three of our classmates, Tom Qualle, Jerry Phillips, and Bob Mertens, on the basketball team that came within one game of the State Tournament. A dream had become a reality. - In September, 1952, we began our last stretch in high school as Sedate Seniors. We were now the leaders in an institution of learning. Our major task as Seniors was that of publishing a year book. With Allene Kenney accepting the responsibility of Editor-in-Chief we produced, what We think, is one of the finest annuals in the state. Our Senior year was not entirely made up of grave responsibility and hard work. There were the lighter activities and events that provide enjoyment for all, such as, our Senior Class Play, the Christmas Ball, the Girls' Prom, and Anything Goes. We have now completed a miles-stone in our rocky road of life. We can look back Evitlh satisfaction over four memorable and successful years! together at Thorp High c oo . Page Ten
