Those In-betweens David Schwartz, President Larry Liechty, Vice President Chester Habegger, Secretary Sally Bagley, Treasurer Tempered a bit bv responsibility, early in September, 1945, the new Sophomore class of Berne High School assembled in their home room. It was the beginning of another year of school. Soon after that, the sophomores held their first class meeting, at which they elected their officers for the year. They were as follows: President. David Schwartz; Vice President, Larry Liechty; Secretary, Chester Habegger; Treasurer, Sally Bagley. These officers served well and faithfully throughout the year. The high spot of the year was a party held in the school gymnasium in the middle of December. This class of ’48 leaves good wishes for those that will follow and lcoks forward to more happy and successful years. Next year we'll be upperclassmen!

Jaunty Juniors James Sprunger, President John Smith, Vice President Flossie Beer, Secretary Vera Habegger, Treasurer In September thirty-two new juniors came bounding back to school to start a new year and display their vast amount of wisdom. After a short period of readjusting ourselves for the long grind until May, we had the election of officers. The officers were as follows: President, James Sprunger; Vice President, John Smith; Secretary, Flossie Beer; and Treasurer, Vera Habegger. Our class sponsor is Miss Hirschy. In February we presented the three-act comedy “Don’t Keep Him Waiting.” The play was under the direction of Miss Stone. At various times throughout the year we trotted gailv back to school to attend the high school parties. We maintained a fairly high morale throughout the year amid the grade cards and demerits in history class. May caught us playing host to the seniors at the junior-senior reception. Boy, did we dress up! It also found us leaving the school for the summer. We would return as seniors! Juniors First Row: Mary Amstutz. Paul Baumgartner. Flossie Beer, Roger Beitler. Rosemary Beitler.

Frosh on the Green Arlene Haeegger, President Ruth Inniger, Vice President Jack Lehman. Secretary Joe Wittwer, Treasurer In the fall of 1945 we at last entered high school life. We had waited a long time. At the beginning of the year we were a bit timid, but we soon got into the swing of things. We chose as our class officers, Arlene Habegger, President; Ruth Inniger, Vice President; Jack Lehman, Secretary; and Joe Wittwer, Treasurer. The highlight of the year for the girls of our class was the party and the initiation the senior girls gave us, which we will never forget. In October we had a class party in the gym. Our class is striving to be the kind of class Berne School will have been proud of when we graduate. Freshmen First Row: Sharon Allspaw. Marvin Amstutz. Harry Eck-rote. Jr.. John Eichenberger.
