the freshman story The class of 1963 is the first-the first clqss that, upon graduation, will have spent four years at Brandywine High School. ' On a bright sunny September morning, 1959, 240 freshmen entered Brandy- wine for their first day of high school. We were immediately assigned to homerooms where friendships were renewed and new ones acquired. On that day, if you had seen someone running down the hall late for a class, it probably was a freshman who was not yet acquainted with the lay-out of the building. After being presented with a choice of a variety of activities, we began at once to take an active part in them. Among these activities were: Chorus, which had a freshman membership of twelve, newspaper and yearbook had seven members, Band had twenty-six, Cross Country had two, Future Nurses Club had five members, Student Council had nine members, Dramatics Club had twenty-six members. One of our freshman girls, Susan Roedel, had a maior acting role in the dramatics club production of June Graduate. Aside from co-curricular activities we had an excellent scholastic record. Approxi- mately two-thirds of our class took the College Preparatory curriculum. The other third took either the Business or the General course. To reward those students with outstanding scholarship, leadership, and service to the school, a National Junior Honor Society Chapter was established last year. Freshmen in the Junior Honor Society Society Chapter was established last year. Freshmen in the Junior Honor Society were: Sue Brakin, Michele Clark, Margie Greiner, Judy Ladd, Elaine Ringwald, Cindy Williams, Mark Brennesholtz, Robert Doughty, Nick Horn, David Maynard, Mike Mc- Millan, and Charles Slavin. Not eligible for varsity playing, the freshman boys played basketball on the Springer Junior High School team. With a grand display of athletic ability the team had a spectacular season. The spectators applauded the constantly rising score on the scoreboard with each passing game. The first activity which brought the class together was the election of class officers: Conley Edwards, president, Nick Horn, vice-president, Sandy Phillips, secretary, Michele Clark, treasurer. A second class activity, run iointly with the Sophomore Class, was the Freshman and Sophomore Prom. The small fee of 52.00 per couple was more than enough to cover the delightful evening. The Out in Space motif was brought out in the decorations which depicted life on another planet. lt will probably be a long time before we forget the memorable evening of fun and music. We have been proud of our reception by the upperclassmen. The helping hand which they so willingly extended to us is more than we could ever repay to them. The freshmen, too, when they graduate in 1963, hope to have left at Brandywine a record of outstanding leadership, scholarship, and service.
