- - Q 551110323 HE streamlined bus that we boarded as freshmen has unloaded us, and we march down the aisle in our gray caps and gowns, having discarded our traveling sweaters of gray with the blue numerals. As we are given our receipts, we say goodbye to our drivers. Scholastic as well as athletic awards have been earned on our four year trip. Presidents of the Scholarship Society both semesters were seniors, Ann Matiasevich and Charles Stefan. Twelve passengers were seal bearers with the Scholarship Federation gold seal stamped on their receipts. Our three highest ranking students, also outstanding athletes, were Charles Stefan, Joe Hyatt, and Bruce Zobel. Raising money on the trip seemed to be our specialty. We hit on the idea for the biggest success, almost, that any Prom fund committee ever had-the rummage sale. Valera Snoddy Cwho could sell anybody any- thingj , Wilma Heath, Ann Ottesen, Walter Murphy Cwho with his truck did all the hauling, even to taking Miss Staud home after the salej , and Ger- aldine Wishard were the passenger workers for this. Selling candy and hot dogs to famished passengers was done by the never-tiring Adelaide Taylor, Herbert Jacobson, Janet Rodifer, Margaret Burwash, Alma Stephenson, and Mary Sheehy. Beds were made up for Harold Bradley and Dorothy Lee, who became too ill to stay with the rest of the passengers. Very special credit must go to these two students for keeping up with their work and being ranking students, although they were bedridden. A special stop was made to let Boyd Friis off at Brentwood, and a year later another stop was made to pick him up. Directing the Prom committees this trip were Jack Nelson, orchestra, Bill Blakely, entertainment, Adelaide Taylor, program, Charles Stefan, bids, Edith Worthington, tables, and Herbert Jacobson and Jeanette Light, hall decorations. Even though we had to attend classes regularly, and it was a contin- uous struggle to keep our merit records up, we enjoyed the trip. Romantic dances and proms, when the bus lights were low, and enthusiastic assemblies where we yelled ourselves hoarse, make it a little hard to accept our diplomas. A few of our passengers will make a return trip for one year-but the rest of us will put on our walking shoes and get out, so EVERYBODY OFF !
