Class of 1952 The Last Year On The Hill” HERE TODAY, GONE TOMORROW Oakland High School Oakland, Maryland Before being remembered for its noble and worthy distinc- tions, the Senior Class of Oakland High School, A. D. 1952, will probably be known in later years as the last graduating group to come from that dignified institution. With this class will go all the legends and memories of OHS—the dances, assemblies, plays, concerts, and games of the gym; the songs of the school’s mys- terious cellars; the creaking, crowded halls; the office, in all its awesomeness. School year 1952 was the year of the 7th grade, the “Nut”, the band uniforms, the student commencement talks, the safety patrol, the milk program, the building in the cage. It seems fitting that, to end some things and start others, this paper should commemorate this “last year on the hill.” In Appreciation The staff expresses deep ap- preciation to Bells' Studio for the time, effort, and expense involved in preparing the photo- graphs which are used in this book. Oakland High School Oakland. Maryland June 11, 1952 To the Graduating Class of 1952: A final message to you should be challenging—challenging to your thoughts and an incentive to action. Let us hope that this objective is achieved. What do you want from life? Is it fame, money, opportunity, security, a pleasing personality, good health, a happy family life, a new car, a television set, a comfortable house in which to live, a reputation for honesty and reliability, being known as “a good fellow”, being at peace with God? Or, do your values in life include a combination of these factors and perhaps others? Those around you will be able to distinguish what you really want by what you do and how you do it. As an illustration—your desire for a new car can be realized in several ways. You can do honest work to earn the money to purchase a Ford, or you can “borrow” a Cadillac from its owner without securing his permission. One method we recognize as good and the other as bad. You can, and most likely will, realize most of your goals in life if you are willing to pay the price. This involves effort, time and adherence to your set of ethical values. Only you can decide whether or not the result is worth the price you will have to pay. There is one means, among others, whereby your higher values in life may be attained. Let us assume that you desire to live on a high spiritual level and to enjoy some of the material things as well. How can this feeling of inner satisfaction be fostered? Consider those persons whom you think have reached this goal. Do you include a father or a mother who has sacrificed so that you may finish high school? Is there a teacher who has helped you over a rough spot? Is there a minister who has helped someone you know lead a different kind of life? In brief, are you thinking about someone in a business or in a profession, who spends at least part of his or her time being of service to others? These persons have learned the secret to true happiness. They know that when they per- form a service to the community they grow in stature and in self-esteem. Do your values include recognition of the place of community service in your lives? Your training has provided you with many assets. Take stock of them and put your best ones to work. As you do so you will discover others which have been latent. There is a definite need for your services as leaders and as followers in many different phases of com- munity service. From my pleasant associations with you during the past year I am confident that you have the ability, will take disappointments in your stride, and will hold steadfast to the ideal that effort, time and “the right” will eventually triumph. Has Oakland High School deeply influenced your values in life? Your actions will provide the answer. We will consider it a privilege to help you in your service. Sincerely, Maurice A. Dunkle Principal What We Look Bach On Class History It was back in September of ’47 that the class of 1952 first entered Oakland High School. Everything was new and strange to this group of kids, but they soon fell into the swing of things by electing class officers. The officers for the eighth grade were Lucille Tasker, president; Gloria Maffett, vice president; Gary Baker, secretary; and Miriam Davis, treasurer. Their biggest social function of the year was the 8th grade party. When the next year rolled around they started right in by electing Lucille Tasker as president for her second year. Other officers were Midge Kiser, JoAnne Dunbar, and Mary Lee Rodeheaver. For their ninth grade party they came out with the “Shamrock Swing ’ By the time they reached the tenth grade, big things were begin- ning to happen to this senior class-to-be. It was in this year that theyi really crashed in society by helping give their first Spring Formal. Lucille Tasker was elected president for the third consecutive year. The assisting officers were Edith Bolyard, Jean Ashby, and Pat Bachtel. In their junior year big things were again scheduled to happen to this class. In May of ’51 they used “Moonlight and Roses” for the prom which they gave for the Senior class. Officers for the year were David Anderson, Kitty Gnegy, Jean Ashby and Martha Beckman. In the fall of ’51 the Seniors started on their last lap of the great, journey. To get things going they elected Paul Mclntire president, Beverly Flanigan vice president, Midge Biser secretary, and Gloria Maffett, treasurer. One of the first things on the schedule for these Seniors was a bus trip to the University of Maryland to see the campus and a football game. Time flew by, and it was once again time for the prom. The Seniors were treated by the Junior class to a prom with the theme of “Southern. Plantation.” The Seniors, around the first of June, had an assembly in which each Senior homeroom presented a skit. Next came the Senior picnic at the Bittinger Recreational Area. The Sermon to the Grads came and went. At last it was Graduation Day. The final ceremonies ended the high school days of the Senior Class of 1952.
