.X- Z win fer '46 When the Carioca Class of'Winter '46 left Uni- versity, they took with them one of the finest rec- ords ever made by a winter class. From their ranks came Commissioners, Knights, Mawandas, and athletes. Under the capable sponsorship of Nor- fleet Daniel and George DesRochers, the class gave us seven Sealbearers and five Ephebians. . The officers of the class were exceptional. Lead- ing the Cariocas as presidents in the Senior B and A terms, respectively, were Tom Horton and Bob Moan Thompson. They were ably aided by boys' vice-presidents, Bernell Fox and james Buddy Bottoms, girls' vice presidents, Patti Roos and Betty Chapman, secretaries, Bobbie Westberg and Bar- bara Blick, and treasurers, Bob Zukin and Hunter Crittenden. When the awards were made at the end of the year, the class chose to give membership in the Ephebian Society, the highest honor which can be awarded a high school student, to Kent Tyler, who had served the student body as president, Ralph Daniels, Bill Heyler, Margaret Holland, and Cayley Stone. The American Legion award went to two outstanding Cariocas, David Carroll and Nancycarol Moyer. Those who had been Meledonians two- thirds of their high school career, Barbara Aron- sen, joanne Haskell, ludith justman, Don Morri- son, lrene Smith, Lenore West, and Roger Wiskow were made Sealbearers. Evidence of the war emergency was found in the twenty-nine Carioca boys who received their diplomas after they had entered the service, and while several were able to attend the exercises, most had their diplomas mailed to them. Rio Rhythms, the South American Color Day, was gay and lively, and the small class provided an abundance of talent. Singers, dancers, musi- cians, and skits were presented, backed by Roberto Thompson's Cariocansf' The highlight of the program, of course, was when the class marched down the auditorium aisles singing their song and presenting their colors. The sweaters, which were kelly green, had a gay and nonchalant lose Carioca over the pocket. On the Field Day,' the Cariocas were once again caught in the winter class jinx, but they provided stiff competition for the overwhelming number in the Senior B class. ln regular school athletics, the Cariocas gave Unihi some of the best. ln football there were Kent Tyler, Moan Thompson, Herb Millington, Chuck Cross, Buddy Bottoms, Hunter Crittenden, Ray Biendorf, Don Michael, and Bob Bishop. ln basketball they gave us Rod Hatch, Bernell Fox, and Tom Horton. Track men who produced championship squads were Dave Upham, Buddy Bottoms, and Ted Off. Baseball found Rod Hatch, Duane Walker, and Don Morrison outstanding. ' Carrying away the honor titles of best looking boy and girl were Norman Hopps and Mary Ander- son. Teddy Sargent was voted most popular girl, and Bobbie Westberg, girl with the best personality. For the first time in Uni history, one boy, Moan Thomp- son, carried off both most popular and best person- ality titles in the masculine division. Student Body President, Kent Tyler, and Margaret Holland were voted the boy and girl most likely to succeed. A newly added title, class joker, was a near tie, with only two votes difference between Bernell Fox and Hugh Kelley. Graduation exercises were held january 25, l946, and 2l9 seniors bid farewell to Unihi. ln return, Uni proudly saluted their first post-war graduating class. Saludos Amigos, Cariocas, of Winter '46.
