On the thirty-first of August in the year 1936 our bunch of forty-eight green Freshies,,--yet not so green as irost fresh men--entered A. C. H. S. As soon as we had our wits collected, v e held a class ireeting and elected Charles Kearney,president; Glenn Brooks, vice-president; Bob Coons, secretary-treasurer; with Mr. Stickney serving as class advisor. We had only one boy who went out for baseball that fall.In the spring one more boy decided to show his skill. During basketball season we had four boys from our class to represent us.Two of our girls from the speech class went to the contests. The next year, our brilliant class came back on the first of September, and soon after the beginning of the year elected Helen killer, president; Edwin Shriver, vice-president; Weldon Warrick, secretary-treasurer. Miss Blum served as class advisor. We gave our first party at Halloween. This year we had three boys representing us in basketball and six in baseball. G. P.
