CLASS HISTORY In Septeinber, 1947, thirteen bright looking girls and twenty-one ambitious lads joined the throne ofloyal students as Freshmen of Oakwood High School. We elected Alfred Bradford for president, Dick Bradford for Vice-president, Carol Riggenbach for secretary, and Dorothy Matson as treasurer. On Fri- day, October 15, we were initiated by the Sophomores. That evening they gave us a party in the school gym. Our parties for the year were as follows: A wienerroast and hayride celebrating Janet Rickner's and Ruthanna Spang- ler's birthdays, a Christmas party, a Birthday Party for Dick Donley and Joan Horner, and a Valentine Party honoring Mr. Sear's birthday. We closed the Freshman year witha private skate and picnic at Fort Brown for the class. Mr. W. J. Rupert, our class advisor, rented boats for us for the day.
