HISTORY OF CLASS OF ’26 'I'lie value of many things increases with the passing of time and the class of 1926 has reached the age deserving an account of its sojourn in lied ford High School. Four years ago B. H. S. took unto itself a herd of mere striplings with the fabled amount of verdantness. The first year passed calmly with no noted outbursts of talent. Mot for long can genius be suppressed and in the second year Koetter, Donovan. Patton, and Heironimous came to the front in athletics. I'lie same year Clarence Donovan. Janet Cuthill. and Billy Boruff began to strut dramatic talent. Billy and Janet continued to strut, but Onie turned towards basketball and editorships. Betty Cook and Joyce Armstrong excelled in debating. Our Junior year brought more developments among our talented ones. Mary Cummings was discovered to have dramatic talents as well as those musical. John Hamilton also showed his ability in these lines. Not only behind the footlights, but on the athletic field and in its executives did the class of ‘26 show its ability. As Juniors we chose Muriel Koetter. president of our class; Clarence Donovan, vice-president; Helen Louch, secretary, and Paul Scherschel. Treasurer. Miss Chase made a most capable sponsor. Through her untiring efforts the Juniors very ably carried out their duty of entertaining the Seniors. The Senior year. This will be the largest class to be graduated from Bedford High School. In basketball, with three years of varsity experience. Donovan, Koetter, and Coyle, all in their Senior year won state recognition. Heironimous was chosen track captain and Steele and Donovan were dependable relay men. Our debaters and actors continued to perform, adding Louie Huff to their number. W inston Hole, Ayna Craig, and Ethel Brinegar showed brilliant intellects. Winston winning three district and one state Latin contest, while Ayna won two districts with Ethel as her second.
