15 HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1959 We, the class of 1939, have made history! From grade schools and the junior high we have worked our the 'melting pot' of them all--high school, our goal Green freshmen ! Not only were we called green, the various way up to but we, our- selves, felt green. We were thrilled to be in cafeteria, although it was rather hard during those 4th periods because of the tanta- lizing odors creeping under the doors to tickle our palates. Wwe are now among the upper classmenin NWe get to go to the senior assembly.W 'We are not green any more.' These were our sophomore thoughts. This year we were able to do a little more and weren't quite so embarrassed all of the time. Our sophomore year is rather vague because our Junior and senior years left the most indelible impressions. So we went gaily on ------- Most of us were taking five subjects now, especially the commercial students. This made us feel grown up. Then came our Junior play HSm1lin' Throughn, where the juniors received orchids for their display of dramatic ability. This was a never-to-be forgotten incident in our Junior year. We now come to the great event that most high school students anticipate, the junior-senior reception. For a while we were doubtful whether there was going to be a Prom, but after much work we put over a successful nautical Prom. Our rhythm makers were Joey Ray and his orchestra who, all agreed, were at their best. Seniors! Dignified seniors! How well every senior remembers the first few days of this, his last year. How discouraged we were with those enormous history assignments. We gradually got used to them, and started on an adventurous year. However, before many weeks had passed our senior class had diminished into a small class the love bug having caused a few of the seniors to be led to the altar. Scraps, scraps, and more scraps! Yes, Ohio scrap books. We had heard fantastic tales about this book ever since we entered high school, but we all came through with flying colors. Mr. Bookwalter says some of the best books he has ever had were supplied this year Our football season was highly successful. We won every game except two. Everyone will always remember the NGus and Rosien game About this time our basketball team must be mentioned as one of the things we seniors shall never forget. How they won every game but one and then started on their victorious path to Columbus, will always be remembered. With every single person intensely interested, they played the games with the best of ability and it took the state champions to beat them. We mustn't forget our numerous senior meetings in which we problems. We decided to give a pageant UHoliday' as the last of our performances were busy ones while we secured our pictures. But alas and alack, after to the finish. Farewell class of '59. solved all of our weighty on the football field and These last few weeks announcements, cards, and twelve years we have come
