M0 E T T0 REMEMBER 1944-- We, the Seniors of 56 , are very proud to give you a brief resume' of both our happy and sad experiences that we are leaving behind. Here we were, first graders, our diplomas were practically in our hands. just think, only twelve more years to go. Hey, Seniors, remem- ber Tommy Dick? What a character, huh? We're sure the boys, at least, will remember all their little fist fights that year. Next came the second grade. That was the year Larry Dinan caused a great rumpus. Won- der if the 'doc' ever got that eraser out of Larry's nose. That was the first year we had art classes. Miss Richmond tried to throw some of her artistic skill at us but apparently we didn't catch it! Our third year started out with friction as a result of the boys' new shiny slide! We girls were left with the old rusty one that the boys' had worn out anyway! In order to restore our dignity, we found a new way of entertaining ourselves, jump rope! That year was marred by the death of one of our classmates, Wayne Matter. Not that this was very important to our fourth grade yearg but, we did get new history books! Also, for the first time in our school life, we used little pencils. Remember the Board of Education? lt came in personal contact with all of us just because of that old coal-bin which we slid down and ripped our coats and trousers. Hey, Glenn, it wasn't football season when you tackled Crock in the hall and kissed her! Brave, weren't you!?! This little game, which is com- monly called chase, continued into ever-widen- ing circles until it finally reached our entire class. When we look back on our fifth grade year, we'll all remember the pain and agony of learning the alphabet backwards: zyx-wv- uts . . . How could we ever forget?! What 'big shots' we thought we were this year. We rang the recess bell and also changed classes, just like the high school kids! The educational fea- ture for that year was our trip-to the water works! Oh, boy, what we didn't learn! SELF-CONTROL . These two famous words will always be remembered by the Class of '56 as a part of our sixth grade year. Another great event was the crowning of our king and queen. Hey, Ozzie, how did you ever rate having Glenn as your king?!? Oh, that's right, he was your 'best' boyfriend that year. They were chosen 1956 as King and Queen of Hearts ! Louie Snyder left that year but none of us will ever forget Good 'ol bouncing Louie! The average num- ber for 'holding tones'that year was 20, but not for Bake! He sure was a windy 'ol character! He always made it at least to 40 and usually past! The last memorable thought that we have of this year is Mrs. Greek, her closet, and her paddle juice. We're sure no Senior will ever have hiccups again without thinking of Mrs. Greek and her unusual cure! We were all sorry when we learned of Mrs. Greek's death in the summer of '55. Luck had finally come to good 'ol Clyde Hi when we entered those hallowed halls as sev- enth graders. The feature of the year was our Round the World Dinner! Oh, the food l?! and those costumes! As the old saying goes, We had everything there from soup to nuts! ! A very heartbreaking fate occurred that year. Mr. Hendricks gave us the dreadful news that we girls could no longer play football! To us, that was a fate worse than death! The key to our eighth grade year was study. As we recall, that is all we ever seemed to do. The results appeared on our grade cards. As a matter of fact, you might have even classified us as brains! tHal Glory came to our class that year when Bill Dencer was selected to be Clyde Hi's drum major. We'll always remember him for his outstand- ing performance on the football field and else- where and this will always bring back proud memories to our class. We wish the future drum major as much success as our Bill has had! What a riot our Freshman year turned out to be! We really got into a lot of mischief thanks to Mrs. Noel and her easy-to-get library passes! We were also the victims of slave clay that year. Those mean masters, making us push peanuts down the hall with our noses. The first social event of our high school years was our Freshman Leap Year Dance! The girls felt real brave, or should we say the boys were even braver. They accepted the dates offered by the girls. Glory again struck the Class of '56. Frankie was our first and only boy to go all through his four years of high school as a mem- ber of the varsity football squad. The lucky ones who were selected as prom servers this year were: lean Snyder, Barb Voltz, Barb Erns- berger, Glenn Goltz, Bill Dencer, and Harold Iennings. Last, but certainly not least, came our Freshman parties! We wore out so-o-o many milk bottles that year!
