(Wc had a terrible time last year.) At the beginning of the first semester wc elected officers. They were: President, Kenneth Sink; Vice-President, Venora Robinson; Secretary, Barbara King; and Treasurer, Junior Gill. We had a Halloween Party at which we passed the parts of a cat around in the dark; there was some screaming. Wc also had a Christmas party at which someone (don't ask me who it was because I don’t know) thought of playing Truth anti Consequences. Many of us were quite embarrassed. At the beginning ol the second semester wc again chose class officers. They were; President, Lawrence Arnette; Vice-President, Fern Spaulding; Secretary, Jack Myers; and Treasurer, Boh Taylor. We wish to express our “Thanks” lor a very pleasant year to Mr. Gill, our sponsor. Arvid Erlandson P'tge twenty-four

Of course we had a good time as Eighth Graders, hut as Frcshrr and a part of the High School, we’re bound to have a better time. Already we have had a Halloween party and was it a success!! (Incidentally the days following were more cheerful and less expensive than those following our Eighth Grade Party.) We arc proud to say that Mr. Hawkins is our sponsor; now all we have to do is ‘ perk up” and make him proud to say the same. Before long we’ll Ik Sophomores—hut we’ll probably still he Freshmen at heart. Margaret Kric page hrcntif-thrce

Seventh Grade Class History When we entered the seventh grade we were looking forward to six years of fun and enjoyment. Well, we have not been disappointed. The first semester we organized a literary club and named it “ I he Pen Society. Our officers were: President, Earle Allred; Secretary, Helen Botham; Treasurer, Harold Richardson; and Reporter, Donald Whetstone. We had meetings every Wednesday. The students contributed pieces of literature which Mr. Gill read to the class, and the person contributing the best one for the week received a prize. For some reason or other our club didn’t last very long. Our class officers for the year were: President, Frances Porter; Vice-President, Earle Allred; Secretary and Treasurer, Shirley Spaulding. We had a Halloween party with our sponsor, Mr. Hulbert. Our club, “The Pen Society,” gave a Christmas party and we all exchanged gifts. We hope to have more years as happy as this one has been.
