Class of ’48 During the winter quarter, cries of We want another senator echoed down the school halls, at assemblies, and almost any place where an irate ninth grader could campaign the issue. Because this class is the largest in the school, the freshmen felt it only right that they should have another senator. Everyone remembers the campaign that was carried on in assembly and the voting that came afterwards — well, the ninth grade got their senator by a majority vote. The ninth graders succeeded in arousing the entire school's interest in their other activities, too. Their candidate for homecoming queen. Joan Hunter, was tops among the queens. She led in votes a large part of the time, keeping the other classes on their toes and the dollars rolling into the coffers of the Red Cross. The halls were plastered with posters proclaiming the merits of the freshman choice for queen. With all their enthusiasm. this class has an excellent chance to steal the Homecoming crown from the upper classmen next year. The girls of the Class of 48 played a major part in organizing the Junior High Girls' Club, and in carrying on its program of activities. St. Patrick's Day was the theme for the freshman Mothers Tea, which was given in March. George Tangen . . Tom Ohrbeck . . . Janet Nelson . . . Tom Hoctgcr . . .

Class of 47 Though only five of the members of the original seventh grade class remain, the sophomore class is full of that old U. High spirit. Mrs. Gayne. who also teaches tenth grade English, and Mr. Anderson, who teaches biology, were co-advisers. The class chose Bob Setzer and Joyce Tanlcenoff to represent them in the Senate as regular members, with Steve Wolff and Henry Reedy as alternates. Joyce Tanlcenoff and Helen Buchta were the class representatives to the Girls' Club Cabinet and Council. One main interest of the class seemed to be dramatics, judging from the large number of sophomores in the Senior Dramatic Club. The Class of 47 was well represented in the cost of Seven Sisters , the all-school ploy presented during foil quarter, and in the spring quarter U. Highlites. Near the beginning of the year President Bob Setzer appointed a committee to plan programs for the entertainment of the class after each class meeting. Records, movies, and other types of entertainment were provided by the enterprising committee. On the social side, the sophomores also excelled. They won't soon forget the class sleigh ride, held on the Farm Campus. The whole class appreciated the Buchta hospitality, where they were invited afterwards for refreshments. Another important social event of the year was the sophomore Mothers' Tea. on February 28th. As general chairman of the tea. Helen Buchta appropriately chose the theme of the lion and the lamb, symbols of the month of March so close at hand. The mothers were entertained with a program of musical talent planned by Joan Conrad. Doris Allen gave a piano solo. Jim Marvin a saxophone solo, and Pat Hunt sang Summertime. A girls' choral group sang, and Jonne Martin entertained with a dance. Bob Setzer................ John Hendrickson . . . . Natalie Clark............. Henry Reedy...............

Class of ’50 Being the youngest class in the school could be a handicap. but the seventh grade of 44- 45 has come out way ahead of most other classes. They also have a larger class than U. High is accustomed to see in the seventh grade. Parties are a necessary part of every class program and the seventh grade was not lacking in this respect. They gave some very successful parties during the year. One was a party in the fall on the river banks. The other, a big event for everybody, was the Mothers’ Tea given in cooperation with the eighth grade. The theme was Valentine s Day and so the mothers were given name tags in the form of hearts. Some of the members of the class were active in aiding the Red Cross in making checkerboards for the boys in service. Yes. wherever the seventh grade goes their presence is enthusiastically proclaimed. U. High has every right to be proud of this group. Class of ’49 The eighth graders seemed to have enjoyed one another's company very much this past year, for they had more parties than any other class in school. Mrs. McCart, their adviser, helped plan the first one which was a picnic on the river flats, with entertainment in the form of a treasure hunt. When Halloween came along, so did another party: this time it was held at the school. The Christmas spirit inspired them to get together again to exchange gifts and holiday wishes. The snow provided wonderful possibilities for a get-together in January, and then around Valentine's Day more cookies were devoured at another party. The class of 49 has really grown in membership since last year — from ten smiling faces to twenty-two. Fall quarter they had a lot of fun giving a radio skit patterned after Hobby-Lobby.
