Freshman Class History School started with a thrill for the freshman class of 1952 The class members are Donna Combs, Leah Schneider, Tom Vantrease, Lonny Eller, Dwayne Hamilton, and Dick Scheibe. We got down to the routine in about two weeks. Then the sophomore class got all riled up about initia- tion, but we lasted through it very well. The girls took part in the senior class play. Donna was a yell queen for basketball. Tom, Dick, and Lonny played basketball, while Dwayne was manager. Our boxer was Tom, while Dick managed the team. We hope to take an active part in next year's activities. Humor A farmer stopped beside the field where Gerald was working, and yelled, Hey, Cornsilk, is this the way to Troy? Gerald looked up and said, By neck, how did you know my name is Cornsilk? I guessed it, said the farmer, to which Gerald responded, Well, you can guess your way to Troy, too. After a very trying day at school, Mr. Hayes was enjoying his pipe and reading the evening paper. Mrs. Hayes, who was working on a cross- word puzzle, suddenly called out, Joe, what is a female sheep? Ewe, replied Joe. And THAT'S when the fight began! Frank was always late to class for first period every morning, so Mr. Hayes bellowed one morning, See here, Frank, don't you know what time we start to work around here? No, sir, said Frank, everybody's always working when I get here. Dick, said Mr. Schwartz, would you care to tell the class what hap- pens when a body is immersed in water? Sure, answered Dick. The telephone rings.

Junior Class History On September 6, 1949, ten freshmen entered Anatone High School. There were seven boys and three girls. Only five of those had graduated from the Anatone eighth grade the previous year. Janice Dodd had skipped the eighth grade, Meredith Riley had come from Rogersburgh, Bob Colpitts and Ron Richman from Troy and Stan Autrey from Mountain View. We were sorry to see Ron go back to Troy without finishing one semester. We were soundly initiated by the sophomores and gave a return party. The girls took part in the Junior play, Just Ducky, and the boys were active in boxing and basketball. Frank was chosen class president and Mrs. Taplin was our class advisor. When we came back the following year we gained two pupils, who were Connie Schwartz and Gerald Lohman. Many of us took part in the play, Babies Night Out. At the half, we gained two more pupils, who were Bob Owens from Asotin and Dick Forgey from Vancouver High, making the sophomore class the largest class in high school. The boys were active in boxing and basketball and Selma, Janice and Connie were yell leaders. Jim Weissenfels was class president and Mr. Titus was class advisor. This year we had lost three of our Juniors, who were Bob Colpitts, Lonnie Blood and Meredith Riley, and we gained Amy Cornman and Verlene Yeoman. We put on the play, Date Bais, all of us having a part in it, and we also put on a Junior Prom, May 10. The boys were active in boxing and basketball and Selma and Janice were yell leaders. Frank Scheibe was chosen class president and Mr. Titus was class advisor. Sophomore Class History On September 5th there were three freshmen who entered Antone High School. All three were boys. Chester Hicks came from Asotin, and Lynn Bunten came from Maple Valley, with Bud Amen as the third. The boys were initiated very adequately by the sophomores. All three boys took active parts in both boxing and basketball. Bud Amen was class president and Mrs. Taplin was class advisor. When school opened this year, there was only one sophomore, Bud Amen. Lynn and Chester had both moved. Bud took part in the senior play, The Inner Willy, He also received his letter in basketball. Mrs. Taplin was chosen class advisor.
