Perhaps students did not realize the why of all the scurry that seemed to be located in Room 209 each Thursday, but the work- ers who were meeting their deadlines knew what it was. Most of 'the students merely read the Fri- day issue of the Rambler Wondering if their nam- es were in the gossip column. In the picture below are the Journalism club members who met each Tuesday for story assign- ments and gave their time Without credit to writ- ing their part of the paper. The same can be said for the Megaphone staff, the same group, which also gave their time and efforts to present this Megaphone to the school. In the above picture are shown the executive staff of the Megaphone: Bob Irwin, Shirley Till- man, Cordelia Dennis, Colleen Newkirk, Barbara Felt, and James Rowlands. Below relaxing on the steps are Watkins, Lester, Colties, Wilson, Knight, Felt, Staley, Dennis, Newkirk, Weaver, Davidson, and Tillman.

Do tiey remember, yes and well, the day they scrambled through W.H.S. open doors with bright and clean faces, rolled up pant legs, and searching look in their eyes. That was six years ago, and much has happened since then. When we were- As freshman twelve of our classmates were presented with the Lion's Award: Barbara Felt, Elaine Miller, Colleen Newkirk, Juanita Owen, Juanita Lile, Mildred McCort, Jerry Waugh, Bill Schwinn, Roy Wingate, Franklin Hamilton, Arch Wallace, and Richard Arnspiger. Remembering our sophomore year We recall that this was the year Mr. Stamm left for the Army and Mr. Lessig became our new principal. Richard was our president, Arch vice-president, and Barbara secretary-treasurer. The soph picnic must have been jinxed for We held it in the gym. As juniors we discovered We were an unusual class for we elected a girl, Barbara, for president along with Richard vice-president, Arch treasurer, and Elaine Miller secretary. We ordered our jun- ior rings, but they came a little late, one year to be exact. Come dressed like biims, The gangs on the run, Let your hair down, And prepare for fun was the theme of our junior tacky party held in the gym. We gave a timely play, American Pass- portl' to an enthusiastic audience. We enjoyed our first all-school party, 'Basketball Bounce in hon- or of the team. The youth recreation center also bcgan to take shape. We turned the Legion Hall into a paradise of stars when we played hosts and hcstesses to the seniors at our banquet and prom. Now came our final year. Classes began to mein more and more to each of us. Teachers tried harder to get us to work, and here we stand, all S8 cf us, ready for our diplomas. One thing that made our senior year the most enjoyable and ex- citing was the fact that we beat Newton in bas- ketball and won the Ark Valley championship. As every senior class has had, we had our sen- ior picnic and happy sneak day. The juniors gave us a night to remember in their banquet and prom given in our honor. To the strains of I-'omp and Circumstancef we march out of W.H.S. carrying many fond memories of happy school days.
