FRESHNIAN CLASS HISTORY In the autumn of 194-4, six children came to a new school, Martinsburg, because there was no one to teach us any longer in the parochial school. These children were john Schultz, Jeanette Shultz, Darrell Kam:-ath, Werner Koeppe, Roger Zinn and Carroll Harder. In March Darrell Kamrath moved away wlth his parents into theycountry. Later, during our eighth grade year, Bob Anderson joined the clas . Miss Alice Kamrath was the teacher during these two years. At the end of the school term we took the clunky eighth grdde examinations. All the pupils passed and later most of us met at the county graduation exercises which were held at Wakefield. We received our diplomas and thus we knew that we had passed into the next grade, which meant high school. The next year, seven pupils met in the freshman class of Martinsburg High School, It was like a reunion for Darrell was again with us. Mr. Hanson was our teacher. At first we were a little frightei, but we soon felt very much at home, and a part of the high school. This was especially true after initiation. For a long tlrne we had worrleo about what the upper classrnen would do to us . We found that our worries were groundless for they played clever pranks on us and ordered us to wear clownlsh clothes for one day but did nothing to injure as so that we had more fun than they did. After that they accepted us as equal members of the school group. In everything that the school has planned or undertaken we have taken a full part so that it seems that we are not so much a separate class as members of the whole group. We only know that when the others graduate we will still be here. WN'---john Schultz Ik 1 Ill If lk 1? Roses are red, violets are blue, The fizz in your pop is C O-2.
