In December, we sponsored our first dance, with e Capers, as the theme. ing as Sophomores, the class was under the President, Jim Ismay, Secretary-Treasurer, and nna Kinney, Sgt, at Arms. Our main activity that ar was our Sophomore Hop, Moonlight and Roses, till iourneying higher and farther, we elected, in o Junior year, Lewis Smith, President, Terry Wright, Vice-President, Les Rochester, Secretary-Treasurer, and Clifton Coulter, Sgt. at Arms. Representing our class on the Annual were Nancy Morris and Bill Wheeler. The Junior Prom, Forest Paradise and play, You Can't Kiss Caroline, directed by Mrs. Joy Morrison, were the maior activities of the year.
