77 2 , 4 Z f , X Q. riff! f f if Dear Diary, We Seniors found our class to be the smallest in WCHS during.'53-'54. Though small, we were well known throughout the school. Our homecoming candidate, Norma Bullock, was chosen by the entire student body to be Homecoming Queen. Her escort was Don Wagenbach, another member of the Senior Class. Although our float placed fourth, it created much interest and laughter among the crowds. We looked forward with enthusiasm to our Senior play, the prom, and graduation. Under the guidance of our officers: Bruce Swanson, Pres.g Dean Skinner, V. Pres.g Doris Grimes, Sec.g Don Shorb, Treas.g Virginia Vohland, Ralph Cherrie, Shirley Moody, student council representativesg and Mr. Romani, our adviser, we feel that our last year in WCHS was labeled a great success.
