CLASS HISTORY Four years ago we entered this institution of learning and, boy, what we haven't learned! The first thing we did to start off our career was to elect Dick Lee president. To assist Dick, Sal Gibb was elected vice president: Dorothy Brown, secretary-treas- urer: Shirley Town, girl representative: and Tom Maher, boy representative. Ah, yes, with these hands leading us, how could we go astray??? CWe're still wondering our- selves.j The first big social event that we freshmen had was a prominent part in the Home- coming. For this gala affair we were sup- posed to choose one of our many outstanding beauties to represent the freshman class in the Queen's court. Of course it was a difficult job to make our choice but Sal Gibb came out with top honors, and she did O.K. at that. The time was coming when we were really going to show the school what smart little freshmen are made of, by throwing a party. Right now we will stop and tell you that that was the first defeat of the freshman class. lt wasn't our fault Chonest, we triedj but we just couldn't sell enough tickets for our dance. Well, there wasn't too much we could do but accept defeat proudly, and vow to do better next year. SOPHOMORE YEAR Still green, but now we can say that there is one class that is just a little bit greener. Ah, sophomores!! We really think that life's wonderful. Just like last year, again we're going down to the auditorium to cast a vote for our class officials. Ah, each year we get more involved in politics. We elected Johnny English as president: Lloyd Friedle, our vice president: Jo Bendon, secretary-treasurer: Kay Morris, girl representative, and Dick Lee. boy representative. Ah, what a class. This year we were bound to go places Cand that we didj. Cf course, by this time Homecoming was old stuff to us, so we chose Bonnie Klingbail to represent us in the Queen's court. My, oh my, that court certainly had some beau- ties who really dazzled us. Homecoming sure is wonderful!!! Do you remember the Soph Star Stam- pede ? No wonder you do, for that was one of the best parties in 1944, and, nat- urally it was given by the Sophomore class. For weeks the kids were running around get- ting everything in readiness for the big Ranch affair. Bruce Hinkle and his Al- manians furnished the music for the gala affair, and during the intermission some of 30 the sophomores showed what talent they had to offer. Four of the outstanding entertain- ers for the evening were Jo Bendon, Lloyd Eriedle, Ann Stanford and Cliff Hilderly. who sang their original composition, The Soph Star Stampede. We now felt that we had proven to the upperclassmen that we, too, were capable of showing others a good time as well as having one ourselves. Well, by now the flowers are coming out and it is the end of another school year. The spring fever has come and gone, and as we write our exams we dream of the Wonderful time that we'll have next year. JUNIOR YEAR At last!! We are now considered UPPER- CLASSMEN, and what a thrill. Now we can look down upon the green freshmen in sheer pity. About the first thing we did after spending a wonderful summer was to truck to the auditorium and elect Jim Adams president of our class. Dick Haley was our vice president, and again Jo Bendon was Secretary-treasurer, but Mary Clulo was elected to the position when Jo went to Texas. Bonnie Klingbail and Willie Gay were our gifl and boy representatives, respec- tively. We chose Dorothy Burke to represent us in the Queen's court that reigned over the Homecoming festivities. February Fantasy was the dance that everyone was talking about and, naturally, it was sponsored by the Junior class. Of course, being big Juniors, it was our year to fete the outgoing seniors at a party, and that we did. It was really a super dance, too. Elmer Bierman and his orchestra played out at the Country Club for the gala affair which was really something for the Seniors to remember. Ah, yes, our Junior year is over, and we leave the institution of learning with hopes that we will be able to act as dignified as all Seniors SENIOR YEAR Shhh, genius at work. Now we're Seniors. and after three years of having our fun we've settled down and are now in the classifica- tion of persons commonly known as Eager Beavers. We started our political campaign by electing Willie Gay, president: Jake Frue- hauf, vice president: Mary Clulo, girl repre- sentative, and Bud Davis, boy representative. Sally Gibb was chosen to fill Mary Besha- toor's place as secretary-treasurer. This year the Senior class sponsored the Homecoming festivities, and Iva June Howe was chosen from the class to reign as Varsity Queen, while Doris Bowen was the other class rep- should. The I946 Vic
