Glam On a fateful September morning in 1936, members of the Class of '49 looked around with wide-eyed stares and saw before them the build- ing in which they were to spend most of their next twelve years, the classmates with whom they were destined to share their secrets, and the teachers by whom many doors of knowledge were to be opened. That it was a privilege to enter this house of learning, however, was doubted by some-especially poor little Ralph VVolf. He just cried and cried. Not overly inspired by the prospect of school work, he wanted to go home! Embarrassing episodes occurred with astonishing regularity in the second grade, but LaDona Garver remembers the one that topped them all! My, that little boy was so-o-o-o friendly, wasn't he? Yes, Cupid was busy already. His arrows flew thick and fast. Whoops-bull's eye! Kenny Wilson and Phyllis Williams were such a cute couple. Ain't love grand? - In the fourth grade Marilyn Schrack gained her first taste of fame when she was proclaimed champion jacks player of Miss Riley's room. The only reason her arch rival Ardeth Carlson ever won a game iso Miss Schrack asserts? was that she had an unfair advantage-her fingers were longer! Fifth grader Virginia Biggins painfully found one day that even play time could hold hidden dangers. Being sent home from school with a gleaming shiner acquired during a fast and furious game of Red Rover was far from her idea of fun. H-m-m .... or was it? Remember how excited all the sixth grade girls were when they discovered the handsome new boy in Miss Buchanan's room? Yes, Jack Collier certainly did create a sensation. How does he do it? gloomily muttered his envious male contemporaries. Another September and the Class of '49 reached seventh grade. How proud everyone was to be in Junior High at last! Changing classes was considered oh, so very grown-up. Who will ever forget the hikes through Mill Creek Park the seventh graders used to take? What if they did limp home on painfully tender feet? They always had a wonderful time. Inspired by the Lily Whitersl' of comic strip renown, a new club was organized among the girls and called the Coal Blackersf' One requirement for membership was the wearing of unmated socks. The girls caused many an onlooker to stop and stare when they donned their colorful but confusing footwear and bravely entered classes. Bob Lackey won distinction in the eighth grade by receiving the top score in the county on the State Test. Jim Randall followed him in second place. I September arrived again, and the Class of '49 entered high school. Instead of wearing the confused and bewildered expressions by which average fresmen are customarily detected, however, this class fairly radiated poise, confidence, and intelligence. The fact that Margaret Fiffick fell off her seat in 300 Study Hall the first day is merely the exception which proves the rule! Before we knew it, our Freshman year was only a memory, and we were sophisticated, worldly-wise sophomores. Jean Ann Preston, a new arrival from Canfield, devised a clever new way to add variety to classroom activities. She had great fun drawing lovely chalk designs on the classroom floors. Certain of the teachers, however, found it 26
