Aspiring Freshmen This year's freshies have been an active group consisting of 69 girls and 61 boys. Their speech class was an active participant in many proiects, including various types of speech making, not excluding extemp speaking drills. They enioyed studying parliamentary law, debating, enact- ing one-act plays, and writing orations. A debate team was organized with eight members, holding practice debates with Canton McKinley and Kent Roosevelt. The iournalism club has tried to develop ability to produce better and more original compositions, Many of its members hope to be accepted for the senior staff next year. Their only social event of the year was a Christmas party. The sewing class undertook a variety of projects, among these being darning and reconstructing old clothes, knitting, and learning many useful subiects. Manual training groups made tables, lamps and learned to mend broken articles. Because of lack of materials, boys worked on mechanical drawings during the last semester. The girls' gym classes learned folk dances, the rudiments of girls' basketball, volley ball, and basket- ball. The boys played basketball and encountered Kent Roosevelt and Newton Falls. They played baseball in the spring and practiced army training exercises and commando tactics during the season. The art students have many interesting things to show for the year's work. Pencil sketches, posters, block prints, models sketched from life, clay models, and oil paintings are among these, as well as sketches for en- gravings forthe annual. The survey of the year's work of the class shows the freshmen have not lagged in their participation in and support of school activities. SEVENTH AND EIGHTH GRADE Our visions of the seventh grade were accented by both ioyous anticipation and that frightened expect- ancy one experiences in first grade. This latter view- point, although normal, was aggravated by an ex- seventh grader who insisted that we might as well be entering the morgue as the seventh grade. With this cheerless thought weighing heavily up- on us, we trotted off to spend our first day at R. H. S. Bright spots of the day were familiar, comforting faces of friends. Interspersed among the happy experi- ences of the day trailed humiliating ones. We found ourselves stumbling up the wrong stairs of this strange new building and bumping into what must have been all of the 800 students. This, no doubt, labeled us us newcomers. As the day drew to a close, we reached the con- clusion that another milestone had been attained. Al- though the routine seemed difficult and trying at first, we knew that soon it would become a familiar pattern of our youth. This seventh year proved to be unevent- ful but constructive. When the time came for the portals of eighth grade to open to us, we entered this time without the fear or the awe that formerly restrained us. Once started, we found ourselves becoming in- terested in the variety of activities R. H. S. offers. We had the choice of band, glee club, or speech. During the eighth year the combined red and white groups presented an assembly program entitled We the People, under the direction of Miss Westlake. This program gave both students and faculty a colorful pic- ture of city government. Here was a proiect which climaxed the study of civics and made front page news. In the science classes, the eighth graders studied weather, animals, insects and birds, and made bird books. ln English they have done diagramming, phras- ing, and read some literature. The arithmetic students were formerly introduced to Mr. X and received their first taste of algebra. Besides this they also worked with stocks, bonds, insurance, areas, and volumes. The music classes studied the fundamentals of music and learned about the opera. Soapcarving, craftwork, and war posters were the proiects undertaken by pupils in the art class. Library work included use of the diction- ary, encyclopedia, and Dewey Decimal System. All three classes topped their magazine quotas and pledged considerable amounts for war stamps. Altogether it has been an interesting year for the class of 47 . The officers of the iunior band are: president, Elizabeth Lyon, vice president, Dick Furney, secretary, Doris Bradley, and treasurer, Martha Bell. All are from 7 red. Members of 7 blue home room 21 l elected respec- tively as their president, vice president, secretary, and treasurer, Nancy Mosley, William Vall, Jean Woodrum and Dora Lee Shilliday. The presidency of seven white room 215 is held by Beverly Evans, treasurer, Louise Fasco and secretary, Mark Lutz. Seventh grade teachers were guests of the girls ol that class at a Valentine party, February 7, under the supervision of Miss Montecalvo and a student teacher. Refreshments were prepared and served by the girls. Mrs. Chapman and Miss Rood attended the party. The seventh grade basketball captains were: 7 blue, Mike Spinelli, 7 red, Bill Stefansic, and 7 white, Tom Matteson. Home room 2l6 members enioyed a party Friday night, April 9, as their reward for outselling other rooms in the magazine drive. General chairman was Susan Porter. Serving on the decorating committee were: Ruth Anne Bothel, Joan Chionchio, Jake Osdyke, and Harold Kandis. Receiving the guests were Richard Furney, Dominic Giovinozzo and Elizabeth Lyon . Many interesting games were played, prepared by .lack Neikirk, Claramae Cook, and Joanne Craig. Tle prizes for the contests went to Paul Wilhelm, Kenneih McNulty, Martha Bell, .lake Osdyke, Eunice Boyles, Paul Dale and Harold Kandis. Laura Shartle, Doris Brad'ey and Theresa Barberine made up the committee for the delicious refreshments, while the clean-up committee was composed of Bill Stefansic, Mike Bucci, Bill Dami- cone, Eunice Boyles, Sainty Conti and Sally Chisholm. Mrs. Neikirk assisted Mrs. Chapman in chaperoning the party. While talking with one of the students after a hay- ride lwhich were so popular in the falll he said, You know what? l don't like hayrides, they make me feel too much like a hay seed. Page Q0
