His scholarship rated fifth in the senior class and he par- ticipated in many extra-cur- ricular activities. Topping his activities was his job as pres- ident of the Student Council, but no less valuable were his contributions to Hi-Y, A- Cappella Choir, Boys' Glee Club, and the Senior magazine sale. Melvin plans to enter college, and we wish him con- tinued success in the future. DONNA KRUEGER Donna, a junior, is well known for the smile she has for every- one. She is a member of Girls' Glee Club, Mixed Chorus, Sextet, Band, Clarinet Quartet, Symphon- ettes, and P. G. She was also Editor of the Purple Staff. This year she received her third letter in music. She plans to become a registered nurse.
