Atomic planes are common today. Here with us is Commander Mary Springer of the United States Air Force who happens to be the only woman pilot of such atomic crafts. Dick Marking's interest in cars has led to success. He is now the head of the Northwest Division of Ford Motors. Dick has mentioned that the cars that come out of his factories go quite a bit slower than the atomic plane. On the dance floor we see Vionne Letson teaching Barbara Rowe a new step. Proficient as a dance instructor, Vicky teaches at the Arthur Murray Dance Studio in Miami, Florida. Barbara Rowe has become widely known for her interior decorating salons. Just a short time ago she was commissioned to redecorate two rooms at Blair House, Washington, D. C„ Valary Anderson and Dolores Jones have been comparing the different teaching techniques that are in practice now. Valary is employed as an English teacher at her Alma Mater while Dolores is serving as an exchange teacher to Oxford University in England. As Director of Religious Education at the Hollywood Presbyterian Church in Hollywood, California, Lynn Slosser has made quite a name for herself. Re- cently she has received recognition for conducting the largest youth rally in the nation. After working many long weary nights, LeRoy Pralle has just completed designing a new safety device for corn pickers. Dale Hoppmann, a prominent farmer in Barre Mills, has the privilege of being the first to use this safety measure. Another arrival is Elizabeth Huxsahl who for the last few years has been secretary to the president of one of the largest industrial firms in the United States. This position has enabled her to travel widely and meet many well-known people. Gloria Smith's hobby of drawing and painting brought success, for her famous artistic attainments can be seen in the art galleries in Paris. Marie Hesse's interest in clerical work has enabled her to become one of the better-known commercial instructors in the nation. She is employed at the University of Wisconsin. The evening is drawing to a close and we realize that it is time to part again. We will carry with us a memory of this reunion and cherish it as an inspiration for further success. CLASS SONG AUF WIEDERSEH 'N Farewell to you. Dear Salem High We'll say with all our hearts. This is the day we go away, The time has come to part. Four years have passed and here at last In cap and gown we stand. Our parents true and teachers, too, All gave a helping hand. We've taken part with all our heart In band and choir and plays. In clubs for all and basketball We've sung our high school’s praise. Good-bye Salem, Good-bye dear friends. We'll always cherish true. The memories of the times we’ve spent At Salem High with you. 18

JUNIOR CLASS The 1953 junior class was composed of forty-four students, including two transfers, Marie Stetzer and Myrtle Stetzer. Some of the events that made this year a memorable one were purchasing rings, entertaining the community with the play, Meet Corliss Archer, sponsoring the pre-prom and prom, and managing the candy sales. Well represented in every club, the class contributed a great deal in extracurricular activities. Greta Sprick acted as head librarian and was chosen associate editor of the ORIOLE.
