Senior Class History On September 2, 1952, seventeen Freshmen entered the halls of W.C.H.S. After getting acquainted the first official act was to elect class officers. They were: Bob Hasekamp, president; Paul Godt, vice- president; Ann Twiehaus, secretary; Ruth Hoech, treasurer; Georgie Thompson, reporter; Paul Godt-Ruth Hoech, student council. Our sponsor was Miss Stuart. After initiation we settled down to everyday high school life. In this first year of high school, Ruth Hoech was chosen candidate for the Yearbook Queen, while Ann Twiehaus was nominated as candidate for F.F.A. Sweetheart. Charles Schnick was the Freshman nominee for King of Hearts. In September of 1953, we returned to school, but this time as Soph- omore instead of unsure Freshmen as we had been, and we were very de- termined to make the Freshmen Initiation Day a rough one. But first of all we elected the class officers. They were the following: Charles Schnick, president; Melavee Schreckengast, vice-president; Shelton Singer, secretary-treasurer; Paul Godt and Bob Hasekamp, student council; Janice Harms, reporter. Our sponsor was Mr. Fortune. Our enrollment for the beginning of the year was twenty, but we lost Terry Govoreau, Millena Thornberry, Georgia Thompson, and Charlie Milan, and we gained Betty and Ray Harper, James Bassey, and Elaine Bauman. Upperclassmen at last!! This was a big year for all of us. We had to give a play and we had to plan and sponsor a Prom. Our sponsor was Mr. Jones. As officers, we chose: Paul Godt, president; Earl Requat, vice-president; Janice Harms, secretary-treasurer; Geneva Barton and Fred Flake, student council; and Paul Godt, reporter. We gained two new mem- bers this year, Annette Wilson and Stephanie Sherrill. Our next step was to make money so as we could give the Junior-Senior Prom. We presented a play No Where Fast, and gave a few bake sales. We then gave the Junior- Senior Prom with the theme of Hitch Your Wagon to a Star . Ann Twiehaus was our candidate for the Yearbook Queen and Freddy Flake was the Candi- date for the Yearbook King. Ruth Hoech was our candidate for F.F.A. Queen Charles Schnick was the winner of the 1955 Decathalon. We were sorry to lose Annette Wilson and Stephanie Sherrill this year. Finally!! We are Seniors!! The class officers were elected. They are Earl Requat, president; Elaine Bauman, vice-president; Ann Twiehaus, secretary-treasurer; Wendell Welge, reporter; Geneva Barton and Bob Hasekamp, student council. Mr. Jones was our Senior sponsor. We had a big drop in the enrollment of our class this year, losing Janice Harms, Shelton Singer, Freddy Flake and Betty and Ray Harper. We now have only eleven members in the class. Bob Lewis and Ann Twiehaus were candidates for King and Queen of the school carnival, and Ann Twiehaus was the can- didate for F.F.A. Sweetheart. We had several bake sales, two movies, and sold pins and necklaces. We are also going to present a play. These activities have all gone to- ward our Senior Trip. We are looking forward to Commencement and also our trip. 11
