4 CLASS HISTORY With the falling of leaves, from the trees, last September came the march of teen age boys and girls from North Apollo, Kiskiminetas Township, and Apollo. And to what was all this leading? The birth of the Freshman Class of Apollo High School of 1941-'42. Yes, it was the Freshman Class-and what a class-full of pep, vim, and vigor-ready to start to make its place in the Hall of Fame in Apollo. Of course, there were a few details to be disposed of first. There was an affair that was called Initiation, in which the upper classmen tried to show their superiority over the budding geniuses that had freshly arrived, but that was weathered with stoical indifference. And then things really began to happen. Along came the football season, and right away all knew the Freshmen were on hand. When things were in swing, two of the boys, Tom Barringer and Chick Dando, had made the squad and three of the girls, La Rue Rear- ick, Nancy Davis, and Val lean Coleman were in the cheerleader section-both groups doing a good job. When the smoke had cleared from the lining up of the Tiger Gazette Staff, four of the Freshmen were in there pitching-Mary Lou Richey, Dick Hemphill, Richard Coleman. and Alvin George. Then came the War! Two rifle clubs were formed with the Freshmen well represented and doing admirably. Regardless of all the honors that have come to the Class of 1941-'42 there have been mom- ents when the ego was sadly deflated. lt seems that many had lingering growing pains that brought forth, from many of the reachers, com- ments to the effect that the class was far from having evidence of sprouting wings. But how can it be otherwise? What would High School be without the disturbing element of the Fresh- man Class from year to year? When all has been written in the book of records, this year's Freshman Class hopes and feels that Apollo High will be proud to have had this group of girls and boys enrolled. ROOM 212-Bortz, J.
