SENIOR HISTORY (Elizabeth O’Lenick) In the fall of 1916, fifty-two vigorous ambitious boys and girls entered the halls of German Township High School. We were all rather “green” but the green soon faded away. During our Freshman year the class grew smaller and smaller, but the remainder struggled bravely on. With the help of our teachers we soon received the name of Sophomores. During that year the boys and girls from our class took part in the High School play. On March 22, 1918, we held a reception in honor of the Freshman class. It was very successful and everybody was pleased. In April, 1918, our class was saddened by the death of one of its most beloved members, Lowry Newcomer. Thus the Sophomore year was ended. On September 2, 1918, we assembled again, this time as Juniors. Though there were only fourteen, we were still trying to climb higher. School went along very well for six weeks, then the epidemic of Spanish Influenza broke out and we had no school for nearly three months. On January 6. 1919, we started to school again trying to do the best we could to complete our work during the short time left. This year we assembled as Seniors. Our work is finished. What the future of this class will be, we cannot tell but we know that it will always be loyal to G. T. H. S.
