ix 512601 Cyfasa iifO7, September 7. 1939 was a memorable and unforgetahle day for seventy-nine freshmen who ascended the steps of Greencastle High School, only to remain a few years, and then move on to higher and newer ideals. At first, we were rather bashful and backward, but with the kind help of the faculty and upper classmen, we soon learned to accept the tasks and routines that all who are preparing for future responsibility must accept. lYhen we became sophomores, we were ready to accept additional responsibilities. Ad- vancement was stressed in all academic and athletic activities to which we made great contribu- tions. The members were initiated into the Senior Hi-Y and Tri-Hi-Y groups and into the ,lun- ior Glee Club. The latter, composed of thirty-eight boys and girls of the sophomore class, con- tributed selections at several school gatherings. Many of our members have been outstanding in athletic activities. liven during our second year in high school, we were well represented on the soccer and hockey teams. ln intramural sports, many more members participated. VVC were pleased when the honor of presenting the lfaster play was given to us. The Silvered Rope was selected: it port1'ayed such famous persons as judas Iscariot and llorcasg however, for most of us it was our initial performance, and under Mrs. Conrad's tutelage, we learned much. Our social events of the year included the school Hallowe'en party, and our own class Christmas party at which we exchanged gifts and Christmas greetings. Examinations terminated our sophomore year, and then we eagerly looked forward to the experience of being upper classmen. On September 15 we entered G. H. S. as upper classmen, anxiously looking forward to a most exciting and eventful year. ln the latter part of the month, we elected. in addition to our class officers, representatives to Student Council. Also, we were permitted to think and talk about class rings, which we had looked forward to having since our freshman year. Early in October we voted for them, and when they arrived on December 22. we felt very proud and very much like upper classmen. Then. in keeping with the Christmas spirit, we had a party and a beautifully decorated tree. XVhen we returned after vacation, mid-winter tests awaited usg and after these were over, we began thinking about our class motto, Hower, and colors. Early in February, we made these important decisions. The class song was written by Bettye Henson to the tune of Marching Along Together. These words, along with our class motto, Not for self, but for all, became our guiding spirit: for 'fthrough all kinds of weather, we march along together. Seldom have we had serious disagreements over any of our school issues. A play committee was also selected, and after reading plays for several weeks, Ever Since Eve was decided upon, and was presented April lo and 17. The cooperation that was shown through our earlier school life was again displayed when Miss Diffenderfer and Miss lfVil- liams took over the direction of our play after Mrs. Conrad's illness. Another difficulty con- fronted us when one of the cast became ill just a short time before productiong but again coopera- tion cxisted, and the prompter substituted. Cn September 7, l942, we once more ascended the steps of G. H. S. as seniors, very dif- ferently from that day four years ago.
