CLASS HISTORY We entered Wicomico Senior High School as sophomores in September of 1958, with the realization that once again we were the underclassmen! However, with the able assistance of the upper classmen, we found our new classes and were no longer lost. Anxious to take part in school activities, we elected Student Council representatives and homeroom officers, joined clubs, participated in various sports, and served on committees. Kay Mock was our first Winter Carnival att endant. As sophomores we elected to the May Court Patricia Payne, JoAnn Matthews, and Jean Truitt. With the passing of summer, now we were juniors, and elected as our Junior Class Officers: President, Michael Long; Vice-President, Larry Wingate; Secretary, Doris Dashiell; and Treasurer, Patricia Jones. The Student Council Officers from our class included: Larry Wingate, 2nd Vice-President and Doris Dashiell, Secretary-Treasurer. The Junior Class Play, The Night of January the Sixteenth,” was an ex¬ cellent performance and the result of hard work by the director, Miss McMurrian, and the cast and crew members. The Junior Class was represented in the Winter Carnival Court by Barbara Phillips. Kathy Oakley was selected by the American Field Service to visit New Zealand as an exchange student, and Beverly Hearn was chosen to study in Denmark. This was the first time that two of Wi-Hi ' s students were chosen as exchange students. In the spring twenty-one juniors were inducted into the National Honor Society. Our May Court attendants were Barbara Phillips, Connie Wimbrow, and Carol Betts. We con¬ cluded an enjoyable year by honoring the Seniors at the Junior-Senior Banquet, realizing that the follow¬ ing year we would be receiving the honors as Seniors. Seniors at last! Our memorable last year at Wi-Hi passed all too quickly. The Senior Class Officers were: President, Larry Wingate; Vice-President, Richard Owens; Secretary, Doris Dashiell; Treasurer, Judith Gunby; and Historian, Patricia Jones. Phillips LaMotte served as editor of the ”Wi-Hi News.” The Tom Tom staff included Patricia Jones, editor; Patricia Payne and Douglas Carey, assistant editors; and Wayne Brumbley, business manager. Thomas Jones was an efficient Student Council President, and Richard Owens filled the office of 1st Vice-President. Jerry Hartman represented Wi-Hi as permanent delegate to the Lower Shore Association of Student Councils. The entire Senior Class enjoyed having Mujde Yurdacan from Turkey and Jose Gervas from Spain as our American Field Service exchange students. The Senior Class Play, Antigone,” was an excellent production and a great success. The football team elected Doris Dashiell as our Homecoming Queen, with Sharon White and Judy Sahler as her attendants. Our exchange student, Mujde Yurdacan, reigned as Queen of the Winter Carnival. The winners of the current events test, Dick Shaner, Charles McIntyre, Michael Long, and Richard Field, were chosen to attend the Herald-Tribune Forum in New York. The Senior Class spent a most enjoyable spring day visiting Washington, D.C. and touring the Capitol, the Library of Congress, and the Smithsonian Institute. Judy Gunby was a lovely May Queen and her elected attendants were Barbara Phillips, Sharon White, and Beverly Adams, Seniors will always fondly remember the Junior-Senior Banquet, Senior Awards, and the Senior Prom. Baccalaureate and Commencement brought to a close our wond erful high school years, as we fondly remember the past and hopefully anticipate the future. Patricia Jones Class Historian 12
