Cake and ice cream were en joyed by the group during the social hpur and all were inclined to linger a bit longer than usual for this final visit before the group dispersed for the summer knowing that they would not all reassemble in the fall. One of the highlights in gradu ation week for Vernonia high school seniors was the senior ban quet held last night at the Legion hall for members of the class, faculty members, their wives and husbands, and high school staff members. The delicious menu centered around baked ham with pineapple, was prepared and serv ed by members of the American Legion auxiliary with financial aid from fraternal, civic and church groups throughout Ver nonia. Tables were decorated with the class colors, green and white, with centerpieces of the class flower, white and green carnations. Nap kins bore the class motto. Little by Little We Go Far, printed in green. Six junior girls acted as waitresses for the affair. Mrs. Earl Atkins, president of the auxiliary, gave the welcome to the class, and Joe Taylor, class president, *gave the response. Musical numbers were provided by a vocal trio composed of Ber tha Keasey, Marjory Marr and Patricia Brissett. Farewell to the class was given by Eugene Dove, high school superintendent, and farewell for the class was given by Jim Weller. A history of the class was pre sented by Patricia Brissett. This banquet, which is an an nual affair, marks the last major social event for the class and is an expression of congratulations to the class from all the organiza tions which participate in making it possible.
