CLASS HISTORY On September l l, 1942, seventeen eager children walked into a new and bigger world. Of those first l'7 there are 5 graduating. They are Doris Davies, Paul Price, John C. Morris, James Diss and Kenneth Kundert. We will probably never forget how James kept running after his dad, who was then a bus driver. We were taught our A B C's by Mrs. Leis. Mrs. Leis and Mrs. Jones continued the leadership in our training. During this year 2 new students came to join our class. There were Bill Evans and J anell Swygart. Mrs. Jones was our teacher in the third grade also. We will never forget about all of us getting our mouths taped shut because we were talking without permission. ln our fourth grade of school, we had Mrs. Zinn as our teacher. We gained no new class- mates, and we lost no classmates. Evidently nothing exciting happened to us because none of us can think of anything which happened. Don and Jeannine Vandemark joined our class at the beginning of the fifth grade. We were under the supervision of Mr. D. Edwin Jones. Mr. Jones was also our supervisor during our sixth grade. REMEMBER the time when we all had to line up for spankings? Who threw that piece of chalk anyhow? ln the seventh grade, Mrs. Emerald Pugh was our new teacher. Do you remember when Jeannine had to get up in front of the class and give a great big long speech ? l'm certain we will never forget that incident. During our eighth year of school, we were high magazine salesmen over all the other classes. For this great achievement, we received ice cream as the prize. This year we had two sponsors. They were: Mr. Toll, who had to leave to serve in the armed forces, and Mr. Shade. Finally, we entered high school. This year we sponsored the noon movies. Our Freshman sponsors were Mr. Core and Mr. Schwartz, who left to serve in the armed forces: and Mr. Heath. Bill Lloyd became a member of our class during this year. Our Sophomore year was one of the most successful. It was during this year that we began to realize how hard a class had to work to earn money for its future use. We sponsored a box social and we were the first class to have a Valentine's Dinner. It was during this year that LaDonna Eversole became a member of our class. Our Junior year, too, was a busy and successful year. We sponsored a play The Ghost of Possum Hollow which was directed by Miss Janice Ragon. Some of our other money making schemes were: bake sales, raffles, basketball concessions and the Thanksgiving Dinner. We were also hosts to the Senior Class and the faculty for the Senior Reception which was held at the Marsh Hotel in Van Wert. It was during this year that Lewis Brinoefield became a member of our class. At last the time finally arrived when we would be graduating from high school and would become alumni of York High School. Some of the top events of our senior year were: the class play, which was presented on May 13 under the direction of Mr. Heath. It was called What A Family and what a family it turned out to be when Doris and Jeannine got the giggles in the third act. We were honored guests at the Junior - Senior Reception on May 20. Then came the Baccalaureate and Commencement exercises which signified the end of our high school career. These were held on May 22, and May 24. On May 28, we were accepted into the York Alumni and then on May 30 we started on our trip to New York and Washington. This topped the events of our senior year. This is the history of our twelve memorable years of school. Here is the past and now it will be up to each individual to go his separate way from the rest and make his future as memor- able as has been the past for him.
