With the assistance of Mr. Victor Dunlap as class advisor the following officers were chosen: President .......................... Bill Reese Vice President ....................Lane Bushong Secretary ...................... Patricia Vance Treasurer ...................... Rhea Tudor News Reporter ............... Phyllis Altstaettcr We survived the intitiation with flying color j and a successful Christmas Party war held at Patricia Vance's home. After a brief absence , we came bad a i thirteen eager Sophomores who elected Miss Jones as class advisor. We had lost Phyllis Altstaetter, Jerry Basinger, and Howard Brandehoff during the summer. We selected the following officers to see us through our second year: President ......................................Bill Reese Vice President.............................. Ronnie Evans Secretary...................................Patricia Vance Treasurer ..................................... Rhea Tudor News Reporter ........................... Marlene Foulkes The Christmas Party was held with Bill Reese serving as host. In the fall of 1951, thirteen studious Juniors entered school for a year of excitement. We elected the following to guide us through the year with Miss Myers as our advisor: President ......................................... Bill Reese Vice President .................................... Lane Bushong Secretary ............................. Marlene Foulkes Treasurer.............................. Clare McKanna News Reporter .......................... Clarabell Evans The highlights of the year were the play Date Bait and the Prom with the theme that of swash-buckling pirate days. Date Bait was a huge success and was given much praise. Walking the plank, gloating over long-buried treasure and participating in a reg- ular attack by pirate band will add to the remembrance of the Prom. Our Senior year arrived, an all-important year. Mrs. Myers was given the post to guide us through the year. The Seniors were outstanding in music, scholarship, and athletics. With the memorable occasion of graduation, the noteworthy class marched up the aisle to receive their diplomas and to give farewell to the well-spent days at Vaughnsville High School.

The first business of the year was the election of officers. The results were: Class Advisor--Miss Myers, Class President--Keith Garberson, Vice-President--Lloyd Collar, Secretary--Mary Jane Miller, Treasurer Alton Stephens, and News Reporter--Mary Louise Stemen. These Offic- ers led us through a very successful year. The next big item on the agenda was the Junior Class Play. We chose a comedy. No Place to Park. The play was on schedule for the 7th of November, but at the last minute Jim Evans, one of the main characters, was taken ill and the play had to be postponed until the 10th. When Jim recovered and the play was put on, it was a huge success. The acting and speaking were fine and the attendance was the best in the history of the Junior play. Then came the big show of the year, the Junior-Senior Prom. The theme for this attraction was the Maytime. The gym was changed into a beauti- ful spring garden. There was a stone wall around the entire gym floor. There was a very beautiful spraying fountain with colored lights playing through it in one corner. In another corner was a throne for the Queen of the May. In the center of the floor was a Maypole, form which a false ceiling was suspended. The prom was a great success, as any Senior will tell you. These were the main highlights of the Junior Class. We are looking for- ward to our Senior year, when we will have many other adventures and experiences to report next year.

Used by members in all recognized units of the organization, it is made up of five symbols; The owl, the plow, and the rising sun, within the cross section of an ear of corn, which is surmounted by the American eagle. Upon the face of the emblem appear also the words Vocational Agriculture ‘and the letters F. F. A. The owl is symbolic of wisdom and knowledge; the plow is the symbol of labor and tillage of the soil; the rising sun is emblematic of progress and the new day that will Hawn when all farmers are trained and have learned to co-operate; the cross section of an ear of corn represents common agricultural interests since corn is native to America and grown in every state; and the eagle is indicative of the national scope of the organization. 55 GUSTWILLER'S ARK OF SWEETS For Fresh Home Made Candies Men's and Boy's Wear Located At 56 Public Square Phone 22243 First Floor Nat'l Bank Bid.
