CLASS HISTORY As we, the Class of '49, look back into the past, we see only eleven people with us now who began the long trek from Miss Gahagan's kindergarten up to this day of our graduation. We eleven, namely Kenneth DeWitt, Edgar Flynn, Joyce Gillespie, Calvin Hooker, Frank Kaczmark, Irene Kelvasa, Lynn McEntire, Barbara Starkey, George Strong, Bill Walker and Robert Warren, have stuck together through thick and thin--most of it thick. When we descended upon the first grade, Robert Sawyer descended upon us. Miss Underwood's southern accent held us spellbound for a while, but soon we became accustomed to it and were plunged into the intricaties of the alphabet and numeral system. We spent many a happy hour on the swings, merry-go-round, and teeter-totter; but soon we learned that work comes before pleasure It seemed that a few of us played on them first thing in the morning, completely forgetting to go to our room. This was soon stopped, however, and once more we became engrossed in our work of preparing for the second grade. In the second grade, most of the boys were moonstruck by Miss Wilson. Several of them found it hard to concentrate until we became involved with our subtraction and addition. Then came a most memorable day. Miss Wilson left the room for a telephone call. A group of us decided it was time for music, so George played high C on the piano while the rest of us brought our vocal chords into play. To our utter amazement Miss Wilson didn't appreciate it and one by one we were marched to the office and soundly spanked. After that, we had as bitter an attitude as only seven-year-olds can have, but soon we settled down, preparing for third grade. Three new additions to our class were Fred Seward, Dorothy Howard, and Neal Christie. In the third grade, Mrs. McMahon intruduced us to the terrors of multiplication and division. Several of us couldn't resist looking at the back of the cards to see the answers, and she soon stopped that. That year Burt Cortright, Donald Harvey, George Miller and James Keller joined the ranks of our famous class. Our class became so large in the fourth grade that we were divided into two groups, one under Mrs. Mally, the other under Miss MacGowan. That year our home-making talents began to develo' with the making of maple sugar and ice cream. By that time most of us were such little Einstein's that we took to the paths of geography and broadened our knowledge of the rest of the world. We went on to the fifty grade in the new school building, picking up David Hulle on the way. We were once more divided into two groups under Miss Downey and Mrs. Sinsabaugh as we delved further into fifth-grade math-amatics and geography. Our ranks were increased by Anne Lieftinck, Frank Murabito, Lydia Nelson, Julia Creeden and Charles Monastra. Calvin Hooker's potentialities as a pianist were developing rapidly at that time, as were George Strong's interests in the opposite sex. Every morning Mr. Reardon would enter, bursting with what he oalled Music . However, we bore up well under the 5th grade regime, and looked forward somewhat dubiously to the 6th grade.
