MEMORIES - SWEET MEMORIES As the graduating class of 1946. we entered our sophomore year of high school work anxious and curious to know what the next three years would bring. Our advisers throughout these next'three years were Mr. Yeany and Miss White- night. They both lived up to the title of adviser and helped us in every way. For our officers in the sophomore year, we elected: Frank Valeskie, presidentg james Boughter, vice-presidentg Charles W. Hagemeyer, Jr., secretaryg and james Eve- land, historian. The members of this class were very active in all the extra-curric- ular activities, such as athletics, drama, and journalism. Our junior year was our most active year. The following officers were elected: jack Severn, presidentg James Struthers, vice-presidentg Harold Moyer. secretaryg Clifton Franks, historian. Mr. Walter H. Freed took Mr. T. Holland Paist's place on the faculty, teaching music, leading the Band and the Girls' Chorus. Mrs. Martha Y. Rider taught eighth grade English when Mr. Golder took over physical education. Mr. Pollock had taught gym before leaving for the Navy. The junior-Senior Prom was the crowning achievement of junior year and, even though it took a great abundance of work, it was a very lovely event. As ever, our class was well represented in all extra-curricular activities. Our senior year will especially' be remembered because a few weeks before it opened, World VVar ll came to an end. With the opening of school, there were many changes in the faculty. Mr. Hidlay took over the boys' physical education classes and Mrs. Bader instructed the girls. Mr. Eunson became industrial arts teacher and Mr. Lewis taught vocational agriculture. Mr. Reed and Miss Eddin- ger filled the vacancies in the commercial department and Mr. E. McCormick di- rected the Band. The Orangeville High School was discontinued and the pupils were sent to Bloomsburg. We welcomed this addition to our class and found many new friends. Shortly after school opened, we elected the class officers: president. jack Severng vice-president, james Gillespieg secretary, Ruth Bach- ingerg and historian, Milan Drake. Many of the seniors took part in the class play Janie'l which was a great success. As the year progressed, many boys who had left school to serve in the armed forces returned to continue their education. Two of our teachers left during the year. Mr. Schell was forced to leave be- cause of his health and was replaced by Mr. Kistler. Mr. Letterman gave up the school-teaching profession and Mr. Hidlay took his place. Mr. McCloskey re- placed Mr. Hidlay as physical education teacher. Graduation day arrived quickly. As we left our heritage with the junior class, we went out conhdent that we could face any problems the world might offer us.
