At right, CLASS OFFICERS: Dorothy Skoff, secretaryg Richard Dunne, treasurerg Annabeth Shea, presidentg and Bruce Bairstow, vice-president. -A Here's to the Class of January, l944 ESPITE the comparatively small number in the January, 1944, qlass, great talent was found among its members. At the head of the class was Annabeth Shea, presidentg with Bruce Bairstow, vicefpresident, Dorothy Skoif, secretaryg and Dick Dunne, treasurer. The class sponsors were Miss Marion Coy and Mr. Hugh Hilsabeck. Best Foot Forward, their class play, went oil: very well with Sheldon Hill and Jeanne Blayf lock in thc leads. Others in the cast were Elaine Baddaker, Dick Cole, Preston Helgren, Anna' beth Shea, john Schulz, and Charles Jack. Prof duction manager was Norma Robinson, while Ruth Ross and Clarence Vogler were chosen as house managers. Class night was an outstanding event for this talented class. Charleen Ahlstrom, Bruce Bair' stow, Dick Cole, Joan Mowery, Dorothy Skoff, and Margery Warinanii wrote the novel produc' tion entitled, The Safeguards of Liberty. , It was divided into eight scenes. Scene I took place in Mrs. Edwards living room where she was being interviewed by a reporter about her sons in the service. Through reading a letter from each one of them we were taken to England, to a ship at sea, to Italy, into a jungle, and to an American U.S.O. Dick Cole as Hamlet, joan Mowery singing, and Phyllis Nitsche's dancing really added to an excellent program. Graduation was the last and most important highlight in W.T.H.S. for these seniors. This was the day long hoped for, oft dreamed of, and finally realized. They began the evening with the processional, March of The Peers , and after the Invocation by Rev. A. G. Tozer the address, The Class of 1944 Goes Forth to War and Peace , was given by Carroll Binder, foreign editor of the Chicago Daily News. Then came the big moment - the presentation of the dif plomas. This was their final reward for four years of striving toward their goals. Commencement over, most of the seniors hurried to the Grad Hop for an end to a perfect day.
