Senior History. . . Study Hall Between 9:00-4:00 1943-1944 ilello, Can you remember as far back as the year this dignified t?l bunch of seniors started their career? I certainly can, and it doesn't seem long ago. Colly, it was a funny, wonderful, feeling--being a freshman. Harold Bloom was our class president, James Robeson, vice president, Edward Lamb, secretary, Evelyn Michael, treasurer and Miss Hahn and Mr. Baker, sponsors. We had quite a year--even took first prize on our Corn Festival float! By the spring of '40 our greenness had worn off enough to rate the title of 'fsophomoresf' This time Earl Cearig was president, Edwina Jud- son, vice president, Phillip Kinney, secretary, Ralph Vaughan, treasurer, with Miss Walbolt and Mr. Baker as guiding hands. We put on a pretty good play for the stu dent body--something about utter relaxation and a game of hearts. Well, here's something I'm sure we'll never forget--the thrill a junior gets when he really owns a seat in the study hall! There is certainly lots to tell about this busy nine months. Let's see, that's the year Betty Lou Spaulding was president, Ellen Ad- ams, vice president, Evelyn Michael, secretary, Edward Lamb, treasurer and Miss Wulbolt and Mr. Baker still on the job. Our play, Mama's Baby Boy went over with a bang. Then came the excitement of our shining new class rings, say were we proudf We put on some dances to help keep up student morale tand besides we need- ed moneyy. At last spring came and with it plans! We wanted as nice a banquet as cver in spite of priorities. Our theme was 20th Century and there were rocket ships. planets, stardust, and moon beams. Clavera Kreuz was crowned queen for the even- ing. ,Ieepers it was fun! That brings us almost up to present. Janice Overmyer is president, Bonnie Hill, xice president, Bob Poole, secretary, Earl Gearig, treasurer, Miss Hall and faithful Mr. Baker, sponsors. I suppose you knew, some of our fellows have already gone in- to service with Uncle Sam. We certainly miss them. We've decided to have blue and silver as class colors, a white rose as flower, and our motto is We live in deeds not yearsf, Our senior play is Along Came Peggy . Of course, we're all eager for our final high school activities. There'll be the banquet, baccalaureate, and then gradua- tion. These four years at Swanton Hi have certainly been memorable. We have a lirm basis now on which to stand and as we go out into a war swept world we're thankful for the training we received at S. H. S. It's almost time for the last bell --so guess I'll sign off. Seriously, A Senior U83
