' On September 15, 1945 a most unusual senior c l a s s enrolled. with fifteen members, it was the smallest in the h 1 s t o r y o f Pettisville High School, but still more striking was the ratio of two boys to thirteen girls. Before the end of the first semester June Yoder withdrew, leaving only four- teen in the group. Marthella Rucp was chosen to head the class with John Weber as vice-president and Velma Frey as secretary-treasurer. Miss Wyse be- came faculty adviser. Responding to the appeal of the local ration board for commer- cial students to assist in its office work, the members of the shorthand 2 class went to Wauseon on October 25. They spent the day filing ration applications. Each senior proved his ability at salesmanship in the selling of personalized stationery and greet- ing cards. This class project was conducted for two weeks in January and resumed the last of February for several weeks. The Proceeds from the sales went into the class treasury. J The seniors presented an en- tertaining assembly program January l8. Each member planned and con- tributed one n u m b e r. Musical numbers and poetry reading pre- domlnated, while John Weber proved -5- himself a successful comedian to the astonishment of his classmates and the rest of the school. The senior pictures and pic- tures for the uLar1atN were taken January 25 by photographers from the L e o n e Studios of Sturgis, Michigan. Mama's Angel Childn, a three- act comedy, was successfully pre- sented February ll to a fair-sized audience. Shirley Frey, a fresh- man, took an important role in the play. Each member of the cast gave a good interpretation of his part, while special mention should be made of the portrayal by Kathryn Beck and Alta Burkholder of their difficult masculine parts. Irene Snyder, Freida Seller, Marthslla Rupp, and John Weber were the other members of the cast. Of course the senior b o y s d1dn't have any intramural basket- ball team, but the girls did their part by winning both the league and the tournament. Brown and gold were chosen as the class colors, and the class flower was the pansy. With the realization that the present train- ing and application of youth will figure largely in its future con- tribution, the class chose as its motto, Wwith the ropes of t h e present we will ring the bells of the future.?
