Upon entering the eighth grade, we found we had a room to ourselves cmd a good teacher, Mr. Leeper. We missed Ruth Lindsey, but we welcomed in Pauline Frederick and Keith Silver, who have remained with us through high school. 4 On September, 1942, twenty-two entered our last lap of school. We were known as the Green Freshman. We didn't see Charlene Brandt and lrven Doss with us, but Leola Curry, August Deever, Bob Harridge, Bob Ugulini, Hugh Iamieson, and Margaret Podnar joined us. Initiation, of course, made us full pledge members of the high school. During the day we went barefoot and wore white flannel night-gowns. In the evening, they put us through a test to see if we were ready to be in high school. Sophomore year was in the making as we came back the following September.-We found that our class had lost quite a few, Leola Curry, August Deever, Bob Harridge, and Margaret Podnar. We gained only one that year, Kenneth Carpenter. Entering the junior year found us ready to go. We found that Raymond Petefish had left us to finish at East, and Iohn Lingenfelter soon followed to enter the same schoool. We called in Betty Bishop, Kay De'Moss, Ruth Smith, Shirley Williams, and lack Griggs. This was the year of the Iunior Class Play which was a success in every way, The Iunior-Senior Banquet and the dec- orating for Commencement finished up the year. In September, 1945, we entered our senior year. Paul Biddle joined our class and Shirley Williams left. Our goal was to make the most of our last year. To start the ball rolling we initiated the freshman as is customary in the past. During the day we dressed them to portray different characters. The evening found us putting them through the usual routine. As football proceeded, we picked the last game as our homecoming game. With quiz programs, games and refreshments following in the evening for the high school and the alumni. We are now hard at work on the annual which we hope everyone will enjoy. This is the second edition of the Blue lay , the first being published in 1931. As we look forward to our Class Play, Iunior-Senior Banquet, Skip Day, and Commencement, we wonder what the world will have stored up for us. By our own efforts we hope to rise.
