Keniuckians. Included among these were Lila Terrel, Madge Hosterman, and Betty Whistler. Betty Baker and Russell Clifton also joined the crew. Mr. Hogue, Miss Cates, Miss Zimmerman, and Miss Thompson replaced teachers on the staff. This year the “Ma- hogany Club celebrated the departure of their leader, Mr. Cunningham. Gene Lee and Howard McFrdden received awards for having participated in the most activities of this unique organization. The following year we were silly sophomores. Our little dreams had changed and Mr. Foster, Mr. Walters, and Miss Fraley came to handle us. At the end of the first semester Miss Boruff replaced Miss Fraley. We were now taking hard subjects from which these famous lines were taken. You remember “Amo te” and “Puella est Pulchra”. We also learned that x2 plus y2 equal Foo2. We were really getting smart. Our boys participated in basketball, baseball, and track. This year our class suffered a great blow when How- ard McFadden said good-bye to his Alma Mater. No doubt, if he harf remained, he wou'd have been the most illustrious rough neck Boswell has ever known. Meddie Brouilette and Charles Clark were the only new members. As we enrolled in September, 1939, we eagerly looked forward to the activities of the junior year. Stella Bell became one of the crowd during this eventful season. After much hard work we gave a colossal mystery play, “Hobgoblin House”; however, our dividends were great and we were very proud. The Junior-Senior reception was also a gala affair. It was a patriotic prom, and did we have fun dancing to the music of Galin Goodwin! Miss Jewett was our sponsor, she being the only new faculty member. Again our students won honors in Latin, Band, Commerce, and Math Contests while several boys excelled in the sports world. We slaved many hours to learn “Gallia est onimus divida tres partem” and “the square on the hypotenuse equals the sum of the square on the other two sides”, but somehow we survived. In spite of the hopes of teachers and the fears of parents we managed to reach the glorious goal, the senior year. School started as always in 1940, with Mr. Pitts, Mr. Jackson and Mrs. Fitzpatrick as new teachers. We added Ruth Gottschall and Wilmer Felix to our class of “Classy Scholars”. Marriage didn’t help our attendance much. I’ll have to admit. “Spring Fever” was the comedy we presented. Miss Russell, who replaced Mrs. Fitzpatrick, helped with our activities. Extensive plans were made for our two-day trip. So after twelve years of hard, studious labor, we’ve reached the goal that was only a vision in 1929. Commencement and baccalaureate will be the end of the high school days in Bos- well, but we’ll feel happy and proud to be among the alumni. One conclusion has been drawn by everyone; that is, we the class of ’41 have reached that wonderful stage where we have learned more and more about less and less until we know absolutely all there is to know about nothing.
