Senio r Clas s Histo fy The fall of 194-2 found twnety nine green, but promising, Freshmen knocking at the door of knowledge. The suspense of our initiation was finally eased, when our superior classmen dressed us up in green and made us act to their choosing. Out of the several freshmen that entered athletics, Mickey Borman won a letter for football, Bill Frome and Dick Bardsley won HEE 's for basketball. As usSilly Sophomores we again were prominent in extra curricular work. Carolyn Peterson and Marilyn Turk made their debut as cheerleaders. Carolyn Peterson represent- ed the school in a serious declamation at the league forensic contest. Our second year we lost a teacher, friend, and advisor when Mrs. Willis passed away. Our junior year was our initial year. Eight boys were out for athletics. Jean Marquardt was chosen Homecoming Queen. Eight Juniors went to the league forensic con- test. We originated the Black Earth High School newspaper. On March 20, 1945 we pre- sented the most successful play of Black Earth history. Under the direction of Ruth Johnson we thrilled our audience with our brilliant performances of a romantic comedy M'So Help Me Hannah. Dreamland was the theme of our prom that was held May 11 with Bill Frome and Lucille Faust reigning as king and queen. Although our Junior year was a successful one, it was also a sad one since Mr. Cox our class adviser died. We shall always remember him because he contributed his whole existence to the welfare of his students. Now we have finally reached the top of the ladder. After years of struggling we have acquired the title of HSophisticated Seniors.H October 19, we originated the successful Horne Coming Ball. Corinne Simley as Homecoming Queen, and Bill Frome as Football Captain reigned over the event. In all activities we showed our superior ability. Six boys were out for football and five reported for basketball. Eight Seniors added their melodious notes to the band and four participated in forensics. On January 15 we presented our Senior Class Play HWinning Schemers under the excellent direction of Mrs. Bussewitz. Our performances was equaled only by our Junior Class Play. The last semester of our high school career was devoted to publishing the annual. As Freshmeny the four years we were to spend in High School looked endless, but now as we look back it seems but a few days since w e timidly tiptoed into the assembly. We hope that when we march out of here for the last time, that you will think of us once in a wh'le for we certainly shall think of you.
