 dhr SUwmrratm Q »—- Wlri.. [ O Jfrrshmnt N the first day of school last September, rather bewildered and self con- scious, we entered as Freshmen the halls of Avon Community High School. We arrived safely in Study Hall where we were given our orders, but when it came time for classes to pass, we were much at sea concerning where to go. We formed in little groups in order to gain the protection of numbers, and finally we found the class room. Our first few days were rather overpowering for us, but after a few days’ con- fusion, we became accustomed to our new surroundings and began to act quite nat- urally. Now we are more at home than the Seniors, more important than the Juniors, and more dictatorial than the Sophomores. Since we are in High School, we find that those stately creatures formerly known by us as “teachers” are now nothing less than “faculty.” Under their direction we are doing our best to survive this, our first year in High School and pass in safety to our second year in Avon High. We undoubtedly are going to be a famous class and have started on the road to fame already. Two of our number, Donovan Myers and Frank Arthurs, were members of the First Basket Ball Team. Kenneth Schrodt and Jack Sundberg helped the second team get two victories from Abingdon. Our class is the only one represented in the girls’ vocal contest. It will be hard for the judges to decide whether Berneice Mings, Florence Jennings or Orel Day will go to the county meet at Lewistown. Leroy Griffith, Leota Hovell and Doris Hollister are making enviable records in Algebra I. Irene Mitchell and Ada Swanson captured upperclassmen at the opening of school and from present indications, they are going to keep them. Raymond Bell can both ask and answer questions. Douglas Spencer has the ability to produce a blush at any time with little or no cause. Rex Jennings and Frank Snapp are our giggling boys. When we were eighth graders we had one “class wart,” Eugene Baker, but now that we are H. S. Freshmen, one is not enough so Melvin Schisler came from “Saintie” to be our new “wart.” Our industrious bookkeepers are Ercell Serven, Raymond Pattison and John Wall. Gallerd Asquith, Louise Sailer, Una Hall and Lucille Ross must have heard that our class was to be a remarkable one or why else did they journey so far in order to be with us? We are always acting the fool Because we are just Freshies in school. But when we are with school days done And it’s for us to make the “roun,” Then we’ll call back the days of old When our teachers had to scold And ask of each, “Was that you, A little Freshman of ’22?” FRANK ARTHURS. a i 28 O
