SENIOR CLASS HISTORY In September of 1946, Mrs. Caldwell welcomed twenty-four beginners in the Bayfield School. Ten of these beginners -- Wendell Bartholomew, Myrna Bigham, Jim Holt, Doris Kesselring, Lois Landreth, Carrol Martin, Sylvia Mullen, Arvin Phelps, Jim Reed, and Ray Wells — will graduate here in 1958. Among the first graders that year there developed the strange malady of mama-itus, characterized by such symptoms as stomach ache, headache, or toe ache. An attack of this disease was reason for going home and the duration of the illness was for varied lengths of time. Under the careful hands of Mrs. Mohney, we ventured into the second grade. The big event of the year was burying ain't. Mrs. Folsom was our third grade teacher. Donald Sower became a member of our class. We were very adventurous this year. All the members of the class spent their recesses gath- ering tadpoles and frogs out of the Mill Ditch. In the fourth grade Mrs. Kelley was in front of the classroom in the gym. That was the year of the sandpile romances. In the fifth grade under Miss Largent, we learned how to determine common denomina- tors. Ray Wells and Jim Reed made the pup team. Back in the gym, the honored sixth grade teacher was Mrs. Parks. Boy, we were really smart! After all, we were associated with the seventh and eighth graders. At Christmas time Myrna went to California for about a nine-month stay. Jim Reed won first place in the fifth and sixth grade division at the county spelling contest. If we didn’t know our arithmetic when we began the seventh grade, we certainly knew it before we got out. Mrs. Smith was our teacher. Trent Tanner from Cortez joined us that year and Myrna Bigham rejoined us. We formed our first C.Y.C.L. Club. Sylvia Mullen won a trip to Denver at the speech con- test. We taught Mrs. Smith so much that year that she was promoted to the eighth grade along with the rest of us. Our eighth grade year was the best yet. It was filled with ciphering matches, square dancing. Sadie Hawkins’ Day races, climbing in and out of windows, and an exaggerated feeling of importance at being tops in grade school. Doris Kesselring attended school in Mancos that year. We had graduation exercises in the gymnasium and also attended those at Mesa Verde. In the fall of 1954, we became freshmen. We achieved a lot this year, but not scholastic- ally. We rounded off the events with a horse-back ride on the last day of school. By our sophomore year we were, so we thought, THE class of B.H.S. No one could pos- sibly out-do us. At one time we even had to resort to the art of CHEWING in order to get one over on the other classes. Even the girls entered this adventure. Of course, there was much spitting and sputtering, and ever so many jumped up from geometry class to tear off down stairs to unload their mouths.
