SIXTH FORM HISTORY In the fall of 19418, the first members of the Class of '53 found their way into life at Fountain Valley. The three original members were Bob Wood, Sheridan, Wyo.g Skip Hettinger, Col- orado Springs, Colo., and Iohn Dick, New York, N. Y. This trio lived in constant fear of the upper forms in First House. All managed to survive their first year to return to the Second Form. Christmas Vacation came early for a few of our members that year. The year also saw the addition of sev- eral new members: Mike Tibbett, Naples, Fla.: Sam Cooper, Omaha Neb.g Anthony Bonforte, Colorado Springs, Colo.: Bruce Howard, Den- ver, Colo.: Tom Irvine, St. Paul, Minn.: lim Iudson, Grosse Pointe. Mich,g and, half-way through the year, Dan Charlton, Denver, Colo. The class of '53 was growing, and was to become one of the largest forms in the school. The Third Form became the real year for the Class of '53, The ranks were filled with Bob Service, Colora- do Springs, Colo.: Tom Knorr, Wich- ita, Kan.g Wayne Uthe cowboy Mac- Veagh, Colorado Springs, Colo.g Gor- don Hughes, Sacramento, California: Charles Koch, Wichita, Kan.: Frank Kraus, Sacramento, Calif., and a few left-overs from the Class of '52 in the form of Ernie May, Cody, Wyo.: Pud Alderson, Birney, Mont.: and Bill Glascock, Los Angeles, Calif. Mac- Veagh brought more saddles to the school than there were horses: Wood redecorated his room, and slow-mov- ing Hughes kept up a small aviary. Also, above the usual noise came the hum of model airplanes under the guidance of pilot Hettinger and his crew. Thus we left our third year, In the fall of 1950 the overgrown class of '53 began to make headway by leaps and bounds with the addi- tion of Andy Anderson, Dallas, Tex.: Pete Nolan, Tacoma, Wash.: Dave Tittle, Winnetka, Ill.: lim Kerlin, Tul- sa, Ok1a.p Paul Reed, Colorado Springs, Colo., and Tom Pabst, New Iersey. Also from the great state of New York we found the first real Eastern Cowboy, I-Ienry Wise. In the fall of 1951 the class accepted into its fold six new members: Phil Cox from Des Moines: Tom Bohnen from Winnetka, Ill., Rah Moore and Pete Taylor from Denver: Bob Rahm from Grosse Pointe, Mich.: and Dan Worth from Albuquerque, N. Mex. Thankful at last to be rid of First House, The Fifth Form settled down in the West end of Penrose.
