C + LETTS TLTAZ AY iSiauee CLASS HISTORY To anyone who happened to be standing nearby in the year 1942, we must have seemed very green and unexperienced in our new venture of enrolling in high school. We came through initiation with flying colors. Our class officers for the year were: President James Hagen Vice President Robert Hensley Secretary Janice Brown Treasurer Delores Neuharth With a few left behind in our trudge to higher levels we entered our se- cond year of high school, Yoward the first of February we started working on our decoration for the junior-senior prom. It was beautifully decorated in Chinese fashion and we were duly repaid for all our time and work spent on it. Those who kept our class running smoothly were: President James Hagen Vice President Janice Brown Secretary Helen Christensen Treasurer , Hazel Maize We entered our junior year as happy, determined “upper classmen”. Serving as officers for the year were: President Donald Hitchman Vice President Robert Knight Secretary Hazel Maize Treasurer Frances Shultz During the year we took over the traditional ice cream shop. We made quite a large sum of money in this, our first great enterprise, and on April 27, 1945, we proudly played host to the senior class and faculty with a banquet held at the Ocean House in Gearhart. Following the formal prom was held in Warrenton. The most important year in the history of Warrenton was 1946, for it was in that year that the great Senior Class of '46 entered their last year of high school. Officers were: President Robert Knight Vice President Robert Scrimsher Secretary Helen Christensen Treasurer Verna Cochran On December 21, the senior Christmas ball was held. it was a huge suc- cess decorated in blue and silver, One member dropped out in December, leaving us a “lucky” thirteen.
