The class officers were elected as follows; Douglas Lindquist, president; Geneva Newman, vice-president; Shirley Swanson, treasurer; Ruth Oesch, secretary. The class sponsors were Mrs. Norman Swanson and Miss Beth Murphy. This was a very busy and exciting year. The Junior-Senior Banquet was held on the night of May 11, 1951, at 6:30 at the City Auditorium. The theme of the banquet was “Come to the Mardi Gras.” The Junior Class Play, “The Perfect Idiot,” was given on November 22, 1951, under the direction of Miss Mary Belle Samuelson. Those on the Student Council were Marilyn Anderson, Lajean Larson, Norman Creutz and Lowell R. Erickson. The candidates for Home- coming King and Queen were Lora Lee Lingren and Douglas Lindquist. On September 3, 1951, twenty-four “To Be Seniors ’ came back to register for their last year in High School. Ruth Oesch left to continue school at Creighton and Roland Begier enrolled from Liberty High. Some of them had quite a time trying to decide which subjects to take and which would be the best for them. When school began and it was time to elect class officers, the following were elected: Norman Creutz, president; Lorna Lou Lingren, vice-president; Patricia Beecher, secretary; Lora Lee Lingren, treasurer. The sponsors were Mr. Richard Johnson and Mr. Kieth Tadlock. Patricia Beecher, Shirley Swanson, Lowell C.
