As we have said over and over, nWe really had a thrilling time, and we hope next year to give the freshmen of '45 just as good a party as was given to us.n We have already made about 88.50 toward next year's party by handling the concessions at one of the basketball games. Since this party our class has changed a little. Hazel Sturtevant, Hobart Wyatt, and Lavon Landau have gone. Neil Montanus, Lois Harms and Robert Bales have entered our class. When we chose class officers we also chose our class advisor, Miss Krans. She is also our English teacher and she has been a great success as our class advisor and we hope to keep her during the rest of our high school years. We are proud to have some basketball players in our class and we hope to see them on the first team. They are Red, Billy, Junior, and Neil. Our class is also represented on the cheering squad by Milford Bunger, successor to George Foss. Before school is out we hope to have a class pic- nic. We are trying to keep our colors flying as you are trying to keep our American flag flying. U27 Freshmen Strongu. UT Y

Way back on September 18, l9hl we elected officers Cthat was fifteen days after school startedj. ' President---Dark haired, witty, Junior Landis. Vice President---The small, only girl officer, . Mary Alice Greenfield. Secretary---Red haired, Clarence QRedJ Unger a mighty good basketball player. Treasurer---Blonde, blue-eyed, Billy,Jacobs. We keep our colors cardinal and white flying in our efforts to 'Build for Character, not for Famein Not until October ninth were we formally inducted. Thanks to the Sophomore class, herefs how it was done-- The funniest part was the parade around the gym- nasium with Red Unger dressed as a mother pushing Billy Jacobs in a baby buggy. Also Hazel Sturtevant Cknown by the boys as Porky! fed Orville Yocum five bananas which had been aging for two weeks. After the parade around the gym we found our partners in an unusual way. When we came to the party we had to take our shoes and socks off. Later we found out that our shoes were tied to those of some boy or girl so that each boy had a girl as a partner. We were then called to the kitchen in groups of four where we were given taffy apples, popcorn and punch. '
