Give and take had be, come a graceful part of us. With soaring hopes we had launched into career planning. With trembling pinions we asked, \"Are we ready?\"rom class and campus

We learned the advantages of teamwork. We had favorites . We liked \"Marianne,\"Challenges called, and we echoed back our sung by Belafonte; chubbies at the Center,answers, collectively and individually. Al~ underslungs; and noontime gab-fests.

principal c ullin I hope this has been a most happy and succe ful year for everystudent and every faculty m mber. Our student body organizati nhas functioned admirably, and the rep rt of our ch ol activitiesby the students has been most gratifying. However, there is a feelingof sadness because a segment of our student body will not be withus next year. Students from Riverton and West Jord::m Junior Highswill be greatly missed. Our loss will be Bingham's gain, and as theMiners will be a Class A sch 1 next year, we will still associate withthem in all of our school activities. So students, parting and returning, my most hearty wish foryour happiness and success is hidden in the pages of this yearbook. T. H. McMullin 16

tudent eaders An athlete and guide, president Sherrell Berrett had our respect.We absorbed his initiative and dependability. We valued his actions anddecisions which helped us thr ugh a dramatic year. The leading memberof a quintet that couldn't miss, Sherrell harmonized with the leadershipof Ann, Connie, Peggy, and Van. 26

Diminutive Connie Crane justified our choosing her as studentbody secretary by keeping records efficiently. With a flair for captivating friendliness and unlimited energy Ann Blackett led as vice president. I Recording an eventful year in print and pictures, Peggy Parker served as school historian. Condudlng Impartial trials and prescribing necessary punish- ments were the duties of the judge, Van Lindsay. 27

face decisions The traditions we experienced and the goals we realized at Jordan left us with mixed feelings as we prepared for graduation as the class of '57. We eagerly anticipated a new manner of life, yet vaguely felt as if we were being pushed from familiar surroundings. Many things had given us pleasure: the Senior Hop, friendships, and mastering subject matter. Our growth was manifold. We began to show maturity as we counted our credits in contemplation of graduation, flashed engagement rings, studied college cata~ logs, or joined the reserves. In spite of the determination to succeed in our plans, we won~ dered if we were ready to face the world.Rosalie Brklacich Bud Brown Farrell Brown Joyce Brown Judy Brown John Browne Midvale Riverton Midvale Draper Union RivertonMarilyn Brown Roy Burton Ann Butterfield Brent Butterfield linda Butterfield Larry Butterfield Midvale West Jordan Salt lake City Riverton Herriman RivertonJack Butterfield Sharon Butterfield Donna Cain Don Campbell Ilene Campbell Barbara Carter Riverton Herriman Union Sandy Union Crescent 33
