The Senior Class of 1955 It was the fall of 1951 when a new group of freshmen arrived at the doors of Washington, all ready to begin four exciting years of high schooblife. To acquaint the freshmen with each other, a freshmen mixer was held. The braver girls danced with each other in the middle of the floor, while the boys, lined up against the wall, exchanged the latest news. As the months went by, we followed the examples of the upperclassmen, and catch- ing on to the high school way of life, became real Washington- ites. All of a sudden it was fall again. This time 1952. Soph- omores now, we had freshmen to look down at, and began to feel more grown-up. Under the leadership of Miss Isabell Ni- mis, the sophomore class became organized. We elected our class officers. They were, Bob Mitchell, presidentq Tom Cham- berlain, vice-president, Elaine Backus, secretaryg and Tom Peck, treasurer. A successful faculty-student basketball game was sponsored by the class and the profits were used to hold a class picnic which ended the years events. Our junior year started off with everything happening at once. Class rings to be chosen and the Junior-Senior Prom to be planned. Our junior class ofiicers were Bob Mitchell, presi- dentg Marion Schwagel, vice-president, Janice Lewis, secretaryg and Bob Boeltl, treasurer. To raise money for the Prom, Christ- mas cards were sold and a pre-prom dance was sponsored. May 14-!! Prom night finally arrived. Bob Mitchell, our class presi- dent, and guest, Diane Ronquist, led the grand march. A truly Page twelve wonderful night, never to be forgotten! Seniors at last, our final year dawns with many unforgettable memories of the past years. We elected our ofiicers, Francis Goschy, presidentg Olivia Sonia, vice-president, Janet Beutel- spacher, secretary, and Janice Wells, treasurer. First on the year's agenda were Homecoming activities. We chose our Royalty, Queen Josie Stinson and King Roger Pietrus. Home coming took place on October 8th, beginning with the assembly in the morning, next the big parade out to our Homecoming football game which was held in the afternoon, and ending a perfect day with the dance in the evening. On February 4, our Snow Day was held midst a mild bliz- zard and deep snow. St. Paul Winter Carnival royalty came to our Coronation Assembly and crowned King Tom Chamberlin and Queen Irene Kruse. Janice Lewis and Diane Ronquist were ladies-in-waiting, a new addition to the traditional event. Trea- sure hunting and games followed next at Como Park. In the evening the royal couple made an appearance at a basketball game before coming to the gala Sno-Ball that ended the day's festivities. Seniors next startled Washington with a science-fiction play named, Message From Mars, a comedy climaxed by the hero's blasting off for Mars. Senior Dress-Up Day, the Senior Picnic, the Senior Assembly, and finally the colorful graduation exercises brought the eventful four years at Washington High School to a close, years that we will never forget!
