We thought we were pretty smart, but teacher dear soon had us under control. Barbara Rounds, Homer Ewoldt, Connie Maurstad and Rita Thorne joined our jolly class. We lost Harland Cummings. Upstairs at last! Miss Koch and Mr. Fox welcomed us and soon put a damper on our spirits, or at least tried. We shall never forget the expression on Mr. Fox’s face the day his suspenders snapped. Delmar Brockshus, Charles Allred, Denise Dykstra, Mary Lou Westphal and Karen Wiese joined us that year. Mary Jo Ostrom moved to Galesburg, Illinois, during the first semester. Miss Jones took Miss Koch's place; we assume she just couldn't stand us. I hirty-three pupils started eighth grade. Betty Dykstra, Harland Cummings, Gerald Nissen and Jay Hofmeyer joined us; Marcheta Olhausen and Lester Muilen- burg left. We started our freshman year with a bang-freshman initiation. Somehow we managed to survive the day which consisted of long-legged underwear, corn starched hair, work shoes, Lifebouy soap, onions and the paddle line. We started our high school career with fifty students. This year we had many new names to learn. They were Virgil Fink, Curtis Bremer, Gilbert Denny, Dennis Ewoldt, Bob Feddersen, Leland Glaser, Harlan Heetland, LeRoy Krikke, John Noonan, Mable Groff, Rosalie Habbena, Kar- lene Kluender, Glenda Meyer, Phyllis Mohni, Marilyn Peterson, Marlene Schwein, Betty Speck, Glenda Uittenbogard, Sharon Harms and Roy Peterson. JoAnn Hesse and Harland Cummings were our homecoming candidates and Marlys Klinker was our Oracle candidate. Our freshman year ended with a picnic at Lake Okoboji. This ended the days at Hartley High for Virgil Fink, Curtis Bremer, LeRoy Krikke, Glenda Uittenbogard and Roy Peterson. Page Fifteen
