On September 7, 1944, thirty-five frightened green little freshmen crept in the big front door of B.S.H.S. Those first frightening days will long be remembered. After initiation, we collected our scattered wits, and began planning a return party for the mighty seniors. As we struggled upward in school,we rose in the esteem of the higher classmen, and soon it was our privilege to look down upon the infantile freshmen. During our Soph- omore year we sponsored the Athletic Banquet. Our enroll- ment had already decreased considerably. Catherine Kune, Patty Williams, Lillian Nygard, and Gerald McKonkey had dropped out of school. However, on the brighter side, Ben Fisher and Mary Whitam joined us. After a short vacation, we all came back to begin our Junior year. We ordered our class rings early, so we would have all year to wear them. Our choice for the Junior play. Happy Ending, was a hilarious success. The biggest job of the year was the Junior-Senior Prom. We chose the Dutch theme, complete with turning windmill, wishing well, and tulips. During our Junior year Verna Henderson, Margaret Kalanick, and Edna Maxwell dropped school and married, Connie McNamara transferred to another school and Ben Fisher went home to work on the farm. However again joining our class were Betty Collins, Alice May, and Harold Moes. Our Senior year began on September 7, 1947. We were now the almighty Seniors and felt quite distinguished. This year we were joined by Betty Williams. Harold Moes left us to return to school in Wisconsin. Our Senior year proved very exciting with the planning of Sneak Day, Class Night, the Senior Play, and Graduation. This concludes twelve years of school for Ray Berlinger Eugene Boettcher, Leatrice Butler, Bob Cole, Betty Collins, Bill Darlington, Kenneth Darlington, Leona DeWinter, Lois Drake, Ruby Flanery, Ruth Flanery, Dorothy Henderson, Ann Jurenka, Harvey Keller, Ray King, Ramona Lidstone, Alan Lohse, Martha Lohse, Harold Lund, Alice May, Frank Moravec, Fritz Osterman, Frances Petr,, Lindy Ray, Donna Reichelt?
