CLASS HISTORY The Seniors of 52 began their education under the guidance of Miss Everhart. Only four of the original graduating class went the entire twelve years. These four are Bill Munger, Janice Rousar, Bob Patzwald and Beverly Wurl. Jim Thor- son started with us but left during the year. In our second year, under Miss Wilson, we lost Patsy Johnston, who moved to Huron, and were joined by Darrell McGarvie, who moved from Erwin, and Jim Thorson, who came back from Brookings. In our third year, also under Miss Wilson, we were happy to receive two new pupils, Don McCaskell and Loretta Kracht. After these two years. Miss Wilson was happy to advance us to the fourth grade, where we gained three more new pupils, Dolly Barringer, David Folger and Patsy Johnson returned from Huron to study with us. Our teacher was Miss Theisen. Under the direction of Miss Streeter we began our fifth year. Dolly Barringer left us to return to country school this year. In the sixth grade we were under the direction of Mrs. Kingslin. In the seventh grade we were sorry to lose David Folger but happy to gain Mildred Rundell. Our teacher was Mrs. Gyte. We began our eighth grade under Miss Hinz. Roger Olson and Helen Pecken- paugh joined us. We entered high school as green freshmen, at which time we were initiated by the high and mighty seniors. Our class was enlarged again when we were joined by Dolly Barringer, Paul Cavanaugh, Hattie Dykstra, David Folger, Norma Harris, Richard Hendricks, Shirley Paulson and Norman Van Ningen. Now as veteran sophomores we continued our high school education without gaining or losing any pupils. Throughout the junior year we were busy with the junior play, ‘‘Tom Sawyer,” publishing the Barker and the Junior-Senior Prom. In our junior year Shirley Garrey came back to join us from Bryant, where she had studied her sophomore year. Our senior year we welcomed Bill Gabbert and Nancy Lester into our class. Some of the things that we will always remember are our wonderful basketball team and the swell job they did for us, our senior play, “Mother Is A Freshman.” the Junior-Senior Prom and publishing the Annual.
