The Dedication

Since the annual has been dedicated previously to two of the faculty
members, only one faculty member who has been with us this year is
represented here by a picture . The SeniorClass of 1955 wishes to dedi-
cate this annual to Dr. Morris B. Cierley, Miss Anna B. Peck and Mr.

Leon Porter.

In the opinion of the members of the Senior Class, these three people
are of the highest caliber because they strive to uphold the standards
of democracy for which our school stands.

Energy is the mainspring of their action and when our zeal was gone,
they inspired us with encouragement and enthusiasm.

Honor, integrity, and fairness are the very personification of their
character. They are admirable because they taught us the value of

these qualities.

Because of their outstanding character and strong determination they
were able to instill in us the value of preserving the higher thingsof

life.

As a result of their diligent work and unselfish devotion, each gradu—
ate understands fully the price and value of education.

The Faculty

Education.

The faculty this year was nearly the same as in previous years. There were only three changes in
the staff. Firstof all, Dr. Morris Cierley replaced Dr. Lyman Ginger as the directorof the school.
Edward Shemaleya was the new Physical Education director and also the new basketball coach.
Eddie McNabb took over the driving training course. During the first semester, Miss Anna B. Peck
resigned temporarily due to her illness and Mr. Frank Bean replaced her until the end of the term.
Again, in the second semester ill health forced Miss Peck to retire and Mrs. Rodnell Lunde finished
put the term for her. This qualified faculty devotes time and interest in preparing lives for the
uture.

The Student Council is the policy forming body of the school. With the co~ T
operation of the faculty, this group primes our self-government. The rules
which are made by this group are the lows of the school. Aside from the
officers, each class in the upper six grades is represented by two members.

The most important student organization, the Student Government, has a flourishing year. President Jim Farris
introduced a program of handling only important cases instead of many trivial ones. This policy was very effec—
tive and was accepted enthusiastically by the student body. This is an essential factor to good Student Govern—
ment for without this support the organization is useless and without force. Everyone in school serves of the court
at one time or another, and each class has two permanent representatives. The officers, elected by the entire
high school student body, were: Jim Farris, president; T. Kinkead, vice—president; Lucy Sharp and Carolyn
Amett, secretaries.

The Senior Dance

Jingle bells, jingle bells--what a gala event the Senior Christmas Dance was! The theme of the party was Pink
Christmas, the trees flocked with pink and the snowflaked ceiling reflecting the roseate glow. The music was
furnished by Charlie Blair. After the dance Jimmy Whittenburg entertained the members of the Senior Class at
his home. A snow that evening inspired all with the Christmas spirit.

The Bria Huh

Under the guidance and leadership of Lucy Sharp, president, and the Faculty sponsor, Grace Anderson, the Beta
Club had an exciting year. One of the big things they accomplished was cleaning up the faculty rest room. In
November the club attended the State Convention in Louisville. Lucy Sharp was secretary of the convention
while Nancy Brown was our candidate for succession. She was defeated, however, by a margin of one vote. The
Beta Club also sold Cakes and popcorn at the basketball games and, from theirprotits, they were able to contri-
bute $100.00 to the Glee Club For the purchase of some new robes. Another of the highlights was the installa-

tion of two new Beta Club Chapters at Lafayette and Henry Clay.

Vimont, president; Louise Scott, vice-president; Betty Honaker, secretary; Pope McLean, treasurer. Later on in
the year, a party was given after the U-High-Midway game. Sandwiches and cakes were served and dancing
took place in the rec-room. Throughout the year, the Pep Club sold candy and tags at the basketball games and
also decorated the gym. The Pep Club was host to the Regional and State basketball games. Members of the Pep
