F1wamwwnirrTr, .u marina mun, 1. , , . W2 tIn September of the year 1945 a class of about forty-four entered the Abbotsford High School. we were very obviously freebies . One of the most important things and the one we worried about most was ethe Freshman initiation given by the sophomores. we were afraid they would be very hard on us innocent tthat we werell little freshmen so fortunately for us, our principal, Mr. Wernzenski, would not let them initiate us but a dance was held in our honor. Several of our members dropped out during the year, thinkkg they had obtained enough knowledge to carry them through life. A few left to attend other schools and two were married, The task before us at the beginning of ear sophomore year was to initiate the freshmen, and we really initiated them: All were good sports and everything went well. Our Junior year was one of great success. our annMRd.Shmm Breakfast Club in Hollywood, was the most successful of the entire am- nival. Jim Vetter acted as the master of ceremonies. This was also our first year of football and many Juniortnys were members of the squad. At the big homecoming, our. float shared first prize in the parade which took place just before the big game. The theme for our float was, Crank your ford, Rook your baby, we're going to beat Port Edwards and we donlt mean maybe. Well, we lost the game but it didn't dampen our spirits for the dense in the evening. Gayle was crowned Queen of the first football homecoming. ' .In the middle of November we received our class rings.Every- one seemed to be well pleased. On April 15, we presented our Junior class play, This Ghost Business . we had lots of fun preparing and presenting it and it turn- ed out to be the most successful class play given here. This Ghost Business was really a thriller and seemed to be enjoyed by all. The last great task for us to carry out in our Junior year was the prom. After a little investigating we decided to hold it in the main room at school instead of the armory, as had been the custom. Our theme song, I'Red Sails in the Sunset was carried out in a nauti- cal design of red, white, and blue. Slim's Little Band furnished us with the music. Since it was leap year we chose a queen, Pat D. and she chose as her king, Kenny Baumgartner. A good time was had by both -spectators and promenaders. we also welcomed two new students that year, Amelda from Withee and Jack from Illinois. It was with Joy that we again gathered in dear old Abby Hi for our last year together, on September 8. We had two new members, Delores and Marjorie. However, Maynard soon left us for Milwaukee. In late September we Journeyed to the Doyle studio at Med- ford to have our graduation pictures taken. While there Eleanor hxnme 111 and had to be left at the hospital. Our carnival sideshow, Why Teachers Get Gray starringiab Dizz Kids was great success. ' As we look over our school days we recall all the wonderful times we've had. We sincerely reg et that we won't be back in good old Abby Hi again next year.
