CLASS COLORS: Yellow and White CLASS FLOWER: Red Rose CLASS MOTTO: Try, and half the battle is won. SENIORS As graduation draws near the Seniors pause to recall their four years of high school. Guided by Mrs. Genevieve Summers and Mrs. Mayro Porter, we entered high school in 1944 as freshmen. Class ofiicers were Phil Fraizer, president 5 Dick Antrim, vice-president, and Shirley Caroline, secretary. As sophomores we ordered our class rings. Our officers for the year were Harry Stephenson,,presidentg Wayne Lennington, vice-president, Harold Collins, sec- retary, and Eddie Dragoo, treasurer. During the year two class parties were held under the direction of our sponsors, Mrs. Willimiene Hofherr and Mrs. Van Skyock. Our junior year was highlighted by our play, Faith, Hope, and Flarity , presented March 19. The class had charge of selling the concessions at all school activities. We played host to the seniors at Indianapolis where everyone enjoyed the Shrine Circus. The class sponsors were Mrs. Mary Etta Sutton and Mrs. Hofherr, and the class was led by the officers, Don Morgan, president, Harry Stephenson, vice-president, Nancy Williams, sec- retary, and Harold Collins, treasurer. Seniors at last!! Thirty-five of us will march to the platform in our grey caps and gowns, to receive our diplomas that we have worked for thesr past twelve years.

Day, the activities of which included initiation of the Freshmen and a dance in the evening. Along with many other activities as seniors the year proved to be quite a success. School is over for this class of '49 with a success that could not have been accomplished without the guidance of our faculty and parents, and as we go out into the world, we shall always remember the good times we had at good old Y. H. S. We wish to extend our gratitude and thanks to our sponsors, Mrs. Betty jones and Mr. Callaway, for work- ing with us and being sympathetic advisors in our final year.
