BASS ill if The first united action of the freshmen of '47 was choosing the following officers: President, Billy Giaconi, Vice President, Bill Humphers, Secretary, Edwina Carvalho, Treasurer, Frank- lin Hansen, Advisor, Mrs. Muriel Sample. The l947 freshmen were the last group to be initiat- ed. The return party for the sophomore class late in spring was the big social event of the year. ln the first class meeting of the year '48 the sophomores chose Joseph Martin, president, Bill Humphers, vice president, Guy Shirley, secre- tary, Franklin Hansen, treasurer. Mrs. Voria Shreve and Elizabeth Ruch were sponsors. The party given to the freshmen, in lieu of initia- tion, followed an afternoon of competitive games between the two classes. Two dances, sponsored by this class, were given to which the student body were invited. Lily Quintana was elected president, Viola Churchill, vice president, Edwina Carvalho, sec- retary, Billy Giaconi, treasurer, Mr. John Peters, sponsor. These officers were elected at the first class meeting of the juniors. Lily Quintana and Viola Churchill were elected cheer leaders. The school attended the first post-war Fresno Coun- ty Fair. A series of successful dances, the maga- zine sale, helped build up the class fund for the costly prom, the highlight of the year. A Date With Judy, a three-act play, with' Dottie Crab- tree as Judy Foster and a supporting cast gave an admirable performance. This play had a greater box office return than any other play previously given at TUHS. Powder blue sweaters, and class rings assisted in inflating the ego of the juniors. The class boasted two successful C team County Champs-Joseph Martin and Billy Giaconi. The weiner roast at Mendota Dam, and the Valentine Dance were two other outstand- ing events. Doyle Barnes and Barbara Leonard were the blushing sweethearts who reigned over the latter. The crowning achievement of the year was the Junior-Senior Prom, planned around the theme heaven. This is the first prom danced in almost total darkness, thanks to a thunder- storm. At the Y-Teen carnival the class had two popular booths, the Marriage and Divorce Courts, engineered by Jerry Douglas. Derl Keen was selected to represent TUHS at Boys State, Winifred McGinnis, at Girls State. Winifred won a SlOO scholarship for her radio skit entered in a contest sponsored by the Nurses Association of Fresno. The senior class responsibilities were assumed by President, Wilburn Miller, Vice President, An- ita Palacios, Secretary, Edward Duenes, Treas- urer, Alice Rodriquez, Billy Biaconi was elected senior representative at the student council. Mr. Peters was sponsor. The senior play, Almost Eighteen was the most outstanding event of the first semester, Guy Shirley was the lead. The seniors took part in the Christmas Play and the two one-act plays given in January. The snow trip at Yosemite was held in January. The sec- ond semester brought the Senior Class Day spent at Fresno State College in viewing the plant, the senior Career day at Reedley, and Sneak day. At the commencement exercises Anita Palacios was the Salutatorian, and Derl Keen, the Vale- dictorian. , Robert Pedersen. y 1 .sam 'Q' 1 pq' ll..
