History September 12, 1933, 16 bright-eyed youngsters entered the doors of York School to begin 12 years of diligent study. Of the 16 that started. seven attended all 12 years at York and are graduating with the class of 1945. The seven are Janice Davies, Betty Fisher, Joy Lininger, Doris Thomas, Maxine Wallick, Lewis Linton and Paul Ries. Our second year was under the direction of Miss Helen Waltz. The third grade was divided, and Miss Eleanor Williams and Miss Persis Alspaugh were our teachers. During this year, Donald Crone entered our class. Miss Persis Alspaugh was our teacher in the fourth grade. Betty Lauck, Martha Burnett and Paul Thomas came into our midst this year. It was during this year that Janice Davies began to show romantic interest by writing love letters to her temporary heart-throb. Mr. D. E. Jones taught us the 3 R's in the fifth and sixth grades and gave us a firm foundation for more progressed study. Mr. Jones proved that none of us were angels and marched us up to the front of the room for one of his famous love taps. Ouch! Ilene Crow entered this year. Mr. Correll instructed us in the seventh and eighth grades. Every- one knew that Ilene Crow liked to talk, but Mr. Correll made it quite evident by making her a full-fledged member of the mute', club, and placed her in the corner for a session of solitude. Greenie, freshy-these were the words that we heard when We be- came a part of the high school crowd. Miss Hessenberger was our sponsor the freshman year. Our officers this year were Lewis Linton, Presidentg Murlin Pollock, Secretary and Treasurer. After we became Sophomores, we felt that we were really in high school. Some of the greenness wore off. Our president this year was Don Crone and our vice president, Betty Lauck. Our only party this year was a hayride, enjoyed by the members of the class. Mr. Buchanan, our sponsor, caused an uproar of laughter that set everybody roaring when he de- wigged in biology class. Richard Gamble entered our class this year. The next year was a very eventful one for the Juniors. Mr. Dowler was our sponsor this year. Betty Lauck was President, Maxine Wallick, Vice President, Lewis Linton, Secretary-Treasurer. In order to finance a prom for the seniors, we cooked and served Thanksgiving dinner for the school. In the spring of the year we gave the comedy play, Don't Be Bash- ful, under the direction of Mr. Dowler. We entertained the seniors at the annual J r.-Sr. Banquet at the Whitehall Inn in Van Wert. During this year, Edward Amerman joined the class. At the beginning of this, our Senior year, Don Crone was elected Presidentg Lewis Linton, Vice President, Maxine Wallick, Secretary, and Dick Gamble, Treasurer. Mrs. Morris was our sponsor this year, and di- rected the play, High Pressure Homer. In the middle of the year, Uncle Sam called, and Richard Gamble, York's high-scoring basketball player, entered the Navy. Bertha Evans joined our class this year. The Juniors entertained the Seniors at the annual J r.-Sr. Banquet. Commencement Was May 25, and Baccalaureate was May 20. MAXINE WALLICK 18
