M eventeenth ummerw The presentation of the senior play was an important event of our last year of high school. With the combined efforts of everyone in the class the play was a complete success. This play was centered around Angie Mor- row. In her Seventeenth Summer Angie had her first date sailboating with jack Duluth, the bakery delivery boy. Most of their dates were routine onesg but through the medium of the everyday and the ordinary, their affection for each other grew. They met interference cllil' fill' llll' IHUIICY, IVVO fill YITC Sl10VN', fl1I'CC to gEt ready. from Jane, an old girlfriend of Jack's, and a misunderstanding developed. Also involved in the plot were the antics of Angie's ten year old sister, Kitty, and the trials and tribulations of her two older sisters, Mar- garet and Lorraine. After many laughs, tears, and misunder- standings, Angie left for college. Boarding the train, she realized that nothing would ever be as wonderful as that Seventeenth Summer.

U CHOO A D M MORIES With the flashing of senior cords and heads tilted a degree higher than ever before, we step- ped into our new roles of sophisticated sen- iors. We made elaborate plans for the year and then watched them unfold. Our class officers assumed their duties. Danc- es were planned after each home football and basketball game. Positions were assigned for the yearbook staff and work on the Jordannus be- gan in earnest. To promote the sale of our year book we planned the Jordannus Skits for a con- vocation program. Seventeenth Summerf, our senior play, was presented in December. As the final curtain closed, we knew that there was a lot of hitherto undiscovered talent in our class. Blue and white robes were chosen for our graduation. During the second semester we or- dered graduation announcements, name cards, and robes in preparation for the long awaited day of commencement. As we realized that the last days of our high school career were coming to a close, we began to reminisce. When we entered high school as freshmen, our first job was to choose from the wide va- riety of courses which would best suit our needs. Miss Virginia Kruse, Mr. Frank Smith, and Mr. A. Pryce Noe were chosen as our class sponsors and they ably guided us throughout our high school career. The Freshman Frolic was the first dance that we sponsored during the beginning of our high school venture. A picnic at Spring Mill State Park began a tradition which was follow- ed up to our senior year. By the end of the year, we found ourselves well acquainted and looking forward to more fun and good times together. When we were sophomores, the foundation for our class organization was laid by the Sopho- more Council. This council consisted of ten members who planned our major activities, which were a dance a semester and a class picnic. At the beginning of the junior year, our first official class officers were elected and activities began. A picnic, Junior Joe Day, and several dances were held. For Christmas presents we received our class rings. Perhaps the highlight of the year was the Junior Penny Carnival, based on the theme of The Circusf, Among many outstanding features of our carnival was a stage show musical review and the royal cor- onation of the King and Queen. When the spring of our senior year came, we appeared dressed in outlandish costumes for Tramp Day. Then the juniors gave us the tradi- tional banquet and Junior-Senior Prom of 1951. Our baccalaureate was a combined program with Bloomington High School. And then May 25 came with a mixture of gay and pathos memories. We marched down the aisle as a class for the last time. Some will continue in academic pursuits and others in chosen occupations. There is so much ahead that the feeling is overpowering. May we be worthy of the les- sons learned at our alma mater. Our class sponsors during the four high school years were Mr. Frank Smith, Miss Virginia Kruse, and Mr. A. Pryce Noe.
