Senior Class History In order that the class of 1936 and their activities, while in the Falls City High School, may not be forgotten we have written the following record of the past four years. We, the class of 1936, began our successful career in the F. C. H. S. on September 4, 1932 with 122 members. As freshmen, we attracted a great deal of attention, not altogether because of our mistakes, but because of our eagerness to take part in all phases of high school life. At our first class meeting we chose: Tom Gist, president; Martha Wilson, vice president; and Thelma Ruth Peck, secretary and treasurer. Miss Ickman and Miss Sheehan were sponsors. In the fall of 1932, 116 members again took their place in the school. We elected Bill Schock, president; Paul Guilliams, vice president; and Richard Wertz, secretary and treasurer. As sophomores we laid aside our childish ways of the previous year and with plenty of pep and good spirit, we entered into the activities. As proof of this we had Tom Gist, Bill Schock, and Wayne Dunn receiving football letters; Gist and Schock also received basketball letters. Kathryn Wiar and Mildred Som-merville helped carry the commercial contest to victory. Marcile Deaton, Peggy Cowan, Elmer Kiel and Lloyd EickhofT placed in the M. I. N. K. contest. At the end of this year to aid the departing of the Seniors we decorated the stage for the baccalaureate services. After a vacation full of experiences, we returned to take up the numerous duties and responsibilities awaiting us as juniors. For two years we had been in training that we might successfully fill the vacancy left for us. This we did to the best of our ability. The class officers elected for our third year were: President, Dorothy Glenn; Vice President, Joy Jones; Treasurer, Lavina Apel; and Secretary, Harrison Sutter. i a u a h 19 3 6 Page Eighteen

Schock, Gist, Dunn, Sutter, Davis, Jahns, and Johnson were awarded letters; and also Gist, Schock and Dunn received basketball letters. Those who won honors in Music were Marcile Deaton, Peggy Cowan, Elmer Kiel, and Lloyd Eickhoff. Our successful junior play “The Patsy’’ was given with an all star cast including: Joy Jones, Suanne Schock, Charles Davis, Phillip Weaver, Dorothy Glenn, Henry Brackhahn, Peggy Cowan, Gerald Meyers, and Merle Mosiman. We gave, in honor of the Senior Class, the important and long-looked-for social event of our junior year, the Junior-Senior Banquet. At last we were seniors. This year, the last in the Falls City High School, we elected: Charles Davis, president; Suanne Schock, vice president; Peggy Cowan, treasurer; and Virginia Kutz, secretary. Early in the year we selected class rings and pins to remind us of our high school days. Football letters were awarded to the following: Schock, Gist, Dunn, Smith, Davis, Sutter, Swisegood, Jahns, T. Johnson, Eickhoflf, Ketter and Wertz with Phillip Weaver as manager. Gist, Schock, Dunn, Davis, Swisegood and Smith received basketball letters also. We secured permission to publish an annual, the first in four years. For the Orange and Black Staff we elected Martha Wilson, editor-in-chief; Phillip Weaver, business manager; Joy Jones, class editor; Dorothy Glenn, art editor; Bill Schock, sports editor; Lorraine Lynn, snap-shot editor; and Tom Gist and Lavina Apel, subscription editors. Mr. Gelwick and Mr. Starkebaum were faculty advisors. Mr. Gelwick who in addition to taking over the responsibility of the school added to his burdens the responsibility of putt'ng through the annual. Mr. Starkebaum, as well, gave much of h!s time to helping individuals. Without their help wc would not have had the courage to carry cn. The Orange and Black paper under the leadership of Virginia Kutz, Mildred Sommcrville, Donald Peck and Marjory Rhoades has been very successful. Last but not least we wish to thank the faculty, and especially, our sponsors, tor the interest and patience they have shown in our behalf in making our school life worthwhile. It is with regret wc leave our teachers rnd underclassmen. iniiint uWraMUM Wl 1 , ( Page Nineteen
