HISTORY Our joy knew no bounds when, in the fall of nineteen hundred and forty two, we finally climbed the steps to high school T e greatest dlsilluslonment which we freshmen experienced during this first year of high school was the fact that the girls, who had their home room in Miss Finch's commercial room were separated from the boys, who slid rignt back down the stairs ivla banlsterl to find themselves in the shop with Mr Fauler as their advisor Our mothers suffered minor financial blows during the Freshman year when we launched a campaign to raise money by selling household accessories Thanks to their full hearted cooperation, it wasn't long before our treasurer had a full time Job Nineteen hundred and forty three found us reunited in Room 21 with Mrs Williams acting as our advisor Great excitement arose when the day came to choose our class rings It was friend against friend, foe against foe, untll out of it all we selected an exquisite lO carat Bastian Brothers ring Our financial status was greatly raised through the sale of greeting cards lNeed1ess to say, our Mothers were again the martyrs to the cause! Nineteen hundred and forty four arrived As Juniors, we were much busier than in former years In October and February we sponsor ed dances and on April 27 presented the play 'Life Begins at Sixteen ' Undoubtedly the gaiety of rehearsals provided more 'Joie de vivre' for the actors than the glory of opening night itself We have Mrs Stevens and Mrs Getman to thank for its success Immediately following the arrival of our rings in November, every proud little future senior of '46 marched around the school with hands outstretched water taffy This sold so well that we ordered and sold another two hundred pounds by spring In addition to other important world affairs occuring in nineteen hundred and forty five, we entered our fourth and last year of high school Of course we were rather vain at first, but every senior smirk was soon dissolved in bushels of hard work One of the first tasks which befell us, was the senior play Trying to find a play that would include the whole class was next to impossible so we set tled on one with a cast of five girls and five boys November second and third the townspeople were highly entertained with 'Professor, How Could Youn Many thanks are due to Miss Barber for the unlimited success of these performances On April 12 and October 19, we spon sored dances In February, we ordered our gowns and invitation cards Salt water taffy was so palatably popular in our Junior year that we ordered and sold 1,000 lbs more this year We are now about to leave the best period of our lives, our high school days From now on we must toss our carefree manners back to the gods and assume more of the respons'bil1t1es which accompany maturity The world is ours' Cwell, part of it anyway? 'To get adjusted to the World Is after all the wisest aim It won't adjust itself to us For it was here before we came' McCann 13 I In the fall of the year, we ordered one hundred pounds of salt I .
