emona Maier? ,cjfte 64144 FRESHMEN BORN September l, 1941 to Philipsburg High School, a class of 1944. The new mem- bers Were described as a robust group with a healthy pair of lungs. Full of lite, as any nor- mal Philipsburger should be, they enjoyed the pleasures of a peaceful country. FIRST time any members gained recogni- tion was when our athletes became star mem- bers ot the Iunior High football, wrestling, and basketball squads. Wrestling letters were Won by Ted Slipko and Dick Lux. Many of our members became interested in the band, or- chestra, and choir and were privileged to have Mr. Manner's fine leadership. UNFORGETTABLE were Wilma Purks and Iim Fauth and supporting players in the Fresh man class play, A Ready Made Family di- rected by Mr. Skelton. ELECTED to represent the class were, lack Paul as President, Madeline Pee as Vice Presi- dent, David Gearhart as Secretary, and Ned Dobson as Treasurer. VIVID IMPRESSIONS were made by the HalloWe'en party with its attractive side booths, the Christmas party, when Ned Dobson was Santa Claus, and the Valentine party when the boys searched for hearts around the gym. SOPHOMORES TANNED and ENTHUSIASTIC members of the Sophomore class returned in the fall to es- tablish a name for themselves in P. H. S. The effects of the United States's entry into the war in December, 1941 were beginning to be seen in the restlessness of the boys in our class. SECOND year we contributed Varsity and Iunior Varsity football athletes, many of whom were star players. Boys interested in basket- ball and Wrestling also did their part to uphold the Sophomore name. The ability ot our many musicians increased under the leadership ot Mr. Manner in the musical organizations. PRIVILEGED were we when we were allowed to make a trip to Washington, D. C. with the Iuniors. COMMENDABLE were Betty Lou Harvey and Harold McCoy and cast in the comedy Waiting At the Church , directed by Mrs. Grundy, and our presentation of the comedy Georgie Porgie . Among the CONFUSED memories of our Sophomore year were the start of gas rationing, beginning of a Red Cross Club, First Aid Courses, and other War-winning activities. WISE were we when we elected the follow- ing ofticers: President, Madeline Pee: Vice President, Robert Mitchell: Secretary, Dick Boyle: and Treasurer, Ned Dobson. The Mountaineer - 12
