Dorothy Davis Head Sponsor ....s,.. .,....... M rs. Carter It was only six years ago that the class of '46 entered Wellington High School as confident, knowing seventh graders. How- ever, in less than a year we became conscious of the fact that there was still quite a lot we had to learn. As Freshmen, we were proud to head the Junior high. We even stopped running through the halls and started slamming locker doors with confidence. This year six boys and six girls were named as winners of the Lions Junior Award. Students selected for this honor were Patsy Atchinson, Faye Cain, Patricia Cook, Joyce Davidson, Bar- bara Dunlap, Dorothy Guthrie, Andy Baker, Robert Dare, Guy Goodwin, Jerry Hyndman, John Frazier, and Jerry Wright. We were led in our Sophomore year by D. L. Carter. He was ably assisted by Joan Mercer as vice-president and John Frazier as secretary-treasurer. In the spring our thoughts turned to parties and a leap year party was planned The girls escorted the boys of their choice to the high school gym. A large number of the class was present and it was a memor- i able occasion for the boys as it was prob- ably the only time in their lives that the girls paid all. A lot of the credit for the suc- cess of the party went to our sponors: Miss Dorothy Dey, R. S. Buchanan, Mrs. Marjorie Newberry and Virginia Reiniecker. Our junior year seemed to fly past as one event after another quickly passed. Ofur of- ficers were Bob Groom, president, Joan Mercer, vice-president, Virgil Kemp, secre- tary, and Faye Cain, treasurer. We took great pride in presenting our Junior play Anne of Green Gables, with Doreen Cook in the title role of Anne. Others in the cast were: Sally Wingate, George El- mer Weber, Audrea Hill, Dorothy Guthrie, Lois Wolf, Lois Harris, Jerry Hyndman, Betty Rengel, Alice Staley, Winifred Wilson, Lorraine Oppy, Ed Sargent, and Bill McKin- ley. Carnival was the theme of the Junior party. Booths lined the sides of the gym and everyone tried their luck at the fish pond and Visited the marriage bureau or make-up CContinued on Page 91 ..4-
