 SfOlOB CLASS HISTORy Motto: Our Aim: Success; Our Hope: To Win Colors: Maroon and White Flower: White Carnation In the fall of 1947 approximately thirty-tv freshmen entered West Salem High School to begin our high school career. After we were initir 2d by the sophomores, we became full-fledged members of high school life. A few boys participated in sports, and we had representatives in FHA, FFA, band, chorus, the Oriole Staff, and forensics. Carole Anderson was elected by the student body to serve as cheerleader. The frcshn ,n elected Vonnie Sprain to serve as representative on the Homecoming court. Soon the year passed and we re-entered our Alma Mater in the fall of 48. As sophomores we were given the chance to initiate the Frosh. Every activity claimed sophomores, and many sophomores held offices in various clubs. Carole Anderson was re-elected cheerleader, and Pat Powers and Joyce Powers were newly elected cheerleaders. Mary Lichtie was chosen to represent the sophomore class on the Homecoming court. The fall of '49 found us as juniors. Now we were upper-classmen, taking part in and leading in more activities. Pat Powers, Joyce Powers, and Carole Anderson were re-elected as cheerleaders. The baseball and basketball teams claimed many boys and the basketball team had James Lorenz as assistant manager. The newly organized Student Council claimed six juniors. Morris Meyer was elected president; Catharine Nuttclman, Secretary; and Mimi Eckert, Treasurer. James Lorenz, George Evenson, and Harriet Brocade were representatives from the class. Mimi Eckert and Catharine Nuttelman were co-head librarians, and Catharine Nuttelman was chosen associate editor of the Neshonoc. Carole Anderson was selected as associate editor of the Oriole. The FHA had Mimi Eckert as president, and Bonnie Wilcox became president of die chorus. Under the direction of Mrs. Marie Sanders, we presented a three-actcomedy, We Shook the Family Tree. Pat Powers was chosen to represent the juniors on the Homecoming court. In the spring came the crowning event of the year-the junior prom. Our theme was Candyland, and King Du Wayne Rutz and Queen Joyce Powers led the grand march to the strains of On die Good Ship Lollipop, the theme song. In June of l950Catharine Nuttelman represented the school at Badger Girls’ State at Madison, and Morris Meyer and George Evenson were sent to Badger Boys’ State at Ripon. As sophisticated seniors, aboard the train of knowledge for the last year, we were waiting for that set goal-graduation day. This year has proved to be very eventful, and nearly every senior has been involved in many activities. Early in the year we journeyed to Winona to have our pictures taken. Seniors were represented in every club and many held offices in one or more clubs. Morris Meyer became president of the FFA, and also of the newly - formed Drama Club. He was also re-elected president of the Student Council, while George Evenson and Mimi Eckert were elected vice-president and treasurer respectively. Representatives from the class were James Lorenz, Catharine Nuttelman, and Sylvia Bangsberg. The Oriole claimed many seniors with Carole Anderson assuming the editorship, while Morris Meyer became advertising manager, and George Evenson the business manager. Pat Powers, Joyce Powers, and Carole Anderson were reelected as cheerleaders. Vonnie Sprain was chosen president of the Pep Club and Mimi Eckert was re-elected president of the FHA. The music department claimed many seniors also. Catharine Nuttelman became president of the band, and Bonnie Wilcox was re-elected president of the chorus. Catharine Nuttelman became editor-in-chief of the Neshonoc and Minnetta Larson was selected business manager. Outstanding members of the basketball team were George Evenson, Kenneth Klos, and Rollin Yanzer, with James Lorenz serving as manager of the team. Mimi Eckert was elected to reign as Homecoming queen and the class chose Pat Powers to represent the seniors on the court. As we bring to a close this memorable chapter in our lives, we wish to express our gratitude to our teachers who have guided us through these happy, exciting years. Even though we are leaving West Salem High School, the many pleasures which we have experienced will live in our hearts forever.
