men Nothing like exercise to pep one up. Freshman party fun opens their season Close scores provide keen competition The usual comments concerning freshmen were made about 300 newcomers to high school this year as they wandered around in utter confusion. “Where is 213, I can’t find the girls’ locker rooms, Is there a 4th floor, What! No elevators?” was heard far and near. Soon, however, through the helpful guid- ance of teachers and counselors, a pattern began to emerge from this chaos, and the freshmen commenced to participate in school activities. Gradually they were drawn into clubs, such as Y-Teens, G.A.A., Hi-Y, and many others. They were also represented in the All-School Play, the Carnival, Band, Student Council, athletics, the Christmas program, and the honor roll. The freshman party, which was held in September, introduced them to school parties and dances, all of which they enthusiastically supported and attended They certainly didn’t lack school spirit, for the freshmen comprised a large part of the cheering sections at our sports events. These boys and girls have three more years of high school life ahead of them, and we have every reason to believe that they will be happy and successful years. Our confid- ence in the class of ’50 is unlimited and we know that they will help D.G.H.S. take top honors. 17
