As editor of the annual, Betty Adams did a swell job and spent much time and effort mak- ing a yearbook which the graduating class can be proud of. The Hnances of our book were well taken care of by the business staff consisting of Harry Carnes and Tom Robbins who got the ads from out of town and Clara Mae Long who secured ads from Youngwood and assisted the editor in making the layout for the book. Mr. Tomkon and Mr. Darling were our able spon- fdff sors without whose help the book could not have been completed. Arlene Gray was elected art editor with Shirley Fordyce in charge of the photos. Irene Steiner and Jacqueline Vargosko composed the articles for the clubs and activi- ties. The histories of the underclassmen were written by jean Thomas. Catherine Reese wrote about out future and joan Ciampini compiled our last will and testament. Glenn Morrison and Dick Shiflco were in charge of sports write-ups. Typists Winnie Deruelle and Beatrice Ciampini were eflicient and quick in handing back finish- ed work. Last, but not least, are June Walt, Louis Pallone, Helena Butler, Dick Morris, and Alice Minard who secured money for the Pa- tron's Page. So Hats off to the Maroon and White Staff. .9 ,cfs r-hw Q' lsso P on me lov!! :!:'. :. SENIOR OFFICERS fziots LAST REMARKS Pf8J'id67ll. .,,,,.. ......... , ......A..........,, . R.

Thirty-eight strong, we strode bravely to our first high school classes, only to be greatly subdued by the over confident upper classmen. With Mr. Fox and Mrs. Shannon as our home room sponsors and Harry Riddle as president, we struggled through the term even managing to have a class dance. ACT TWO: Room 18, 19, one year later. Our number still thirty-eight, we entered the Sopho- more Room, a group of over confident souls. With Miss Kunkle and Mr. Mari as sponsors, we started the year off with a bang by putting on a gala re- ception for the Froshies. Being very energetic, we had a very successful Easter Dance. To show our hidden talents, we had a Sophomore Assembly. The rest of the year, with Tom Robbins as presi- dent, passed rather quietly. ACT THREE: Room 1, 3, and 9, still one year later in 1948. With the addition of the New Stan- ton students, our number increased to sixty-six. Robert Davidson was chosen President and we started on our third division of our climb. The selecting of our rings came and went with the us- ual hrclxerrng We presented our class pltx Here Comes the Brrde xxh1eh xx as a Img success To add to the elass treasurx, xxe sponsored a Maftaarne eam pargn, and had a class dance Noxx havrng the need ed moola , xxe began deeoratrng for our 19 ers prom lt xxas held Aprrl 79th rn the audrtorrum XY!e left the Junror Rooms a self satrsfred and sue eessful Class AC FOLR Roomsl l 1 l I9 rn Xl1x therr last xear Frrst on the lrst, thrs terr11 xx ere the graduatron pretures taken at the Gradler Studro ID Nlt Pleasant To rnerease our funds xxe sponsored MAY DAX BALL O r elass of 50 l11s done rt trun Inste 1d of the tr.1d1t1on1l M rx Dlx exererses 1 M tx D1x Brll xx IS held thrs xfe tr This nexx rllur xx LS held N11x l nn the Younuxxood H1 'h behool 1LlLllEOI'IL1ID Queen Helen1 of the House ol Butler presrded 1 Hllloxxe en Dmee xxhleh xxent oxer quxte xxell Srnee xxe had nothmg hetter to do xxe sold candy and also had mother m1gaL1ne eampargn Our elass plax Mlss Qnntger xx IS xxell attended and pI'OV1LlCLl an exenzne lull or laughs lor the audr enee Wirth s1x ot our Senror hoxs memhers or the haslxethall te 1m xxe xx on the Seetron XX XVPIAL Champronshrp To hrrng our aetrxfrtres to a elose, xxe had our M tx Dlx B111 M ty I7 lf 50 rees, Max 79 1930 The eurtun elosed sloxxlx une 7 1950 as the Senrors dressed rn e 1ps and voxx ns reeerved therr drplomas oxer l1er eourt fthe Senlor Class to xouh attended hx I lily W mme ol the House ol Deruelle ts Mard of Honor lflxl ertght rttendants Prrme Mrmster Rohert D IX rdson teted IS M rster of Ceremonres , ' f..
