Melsted On November 2, 1948 we were initiated by the Sophomore Class. The boys were dressed like girls with women's hats, the girls were dressed like boys with their clothes on backwards. We also had to carry a glass of water with two tooth- picks in it all day. The Freshman Class plans to sell pop and candy at every other basketball game. , There are 7 students in the school band and 5- in the beginners band from the Freshman Class. All the girls are out for girls basketball and eight of the boys are out for boys basketball. Dorothy Oakland was our carnival queen candidate. She was also crowned queen the evening of the carnival. ' SEVENTH AND EIGHTH GRADES This year there have been twenty-two pupils in the seventh and eighth grade room. Nine of these pupils have been in the seventh grade, and the other thirteen have been in the eighth grade. This has been ,a very busy year for all. Besides ' doing the usual studying, many have taken part in the extra-curricular activities along with the high school. Nineteen of this group are in the high school chorus, eight are in the band, and three have been practicing in the beginner's band. Six of the boys have been out for junior basketball and four of the girls have been junior cheerleaders. The seventh graders have another year to look forward to in the same room, but the eighth graders find themselves on their final steps toward high school. To them it hardly seems possible they have passed through three stages in school already--the primary, intermediate, and finally the grammar grades. Only eight are left of the original class of fifteen pupils who began their first day of school in 1941. They are Darleth Bierman, Dorothy Cookman, Vivian Gerrard,,Bil1y Hendrickson Charlotte Ke11er,5Jacky Kristensen, james Larson, and Richard Lien. Elaine Lee joined the group in the third grade and in the fourth grade Marjorie,Gerrard was added to the enrollment.. Sheldon Schmidt and Lydia Westemeier came to'Bisbee in the fifth grade, and Alf 'Pollestad joined the class for the eighth grade. They have enjoyed their grade school days, but are looking forward tograduation and to high school. 19 I
