And dark brown STANLEY STONE Rocky hair. Fifty-eight eager boys and girls entered the chambers of B.H.S. to spend four memorable years in the fall of 19 0. On our freshman Initiation day, we were the originators of the girls tug- o-war and were victorious. Quentin Greening led us through this green year and Mr. Greenlee was our advisor. With a loss of eleven students forty-seven returned for our second term. Our most important event this year was the party we gave for the freshmen. Although young as we were our class was well represented In the hall monitors and student teachers plan. With The Mystery In Blue as our Junior play we topped all profit making records. Mrs. King deserves an equal share of the credit due to our success. The week following of the play her home was a mad house of Juniors. We pre- sented her with twin floor lamps. We were the first class to make a large profit as the Juniors who served at the Firemen's Ball. In the spring we placed before our guests, the sen- iors an enjoyable dinner. Roy Hills was a very capable president for this year. At last it is here. We came back in the fall of 19 3 bo be the dignified seniors we have heard so much about. Little did we know what this year held in store for many of us. At the beginning of this year we had already lost a lot of fellow classmen to the service. During the year Clayton Wolfgang was called by Uncle Sam. Quentin Greening and Stanley Stone enlisted and are waiting for their orders. Many of the others are registered and will leave in the summer. But the first time we began to think ourselves as seniors was in October when we »11 came dressed to be Shot by Craine. We attended a banquet as guests of the alumni for the first time in No- vember. After which Freddie Blackherst's orchestra of Midland furnished music for the annual Junior and Senior dance. December 3rd brought forth a successful production of The Green Light. We were again under the direction of Mrs. King. We fooled them again, when about two months ahead of all the other skip days, we showed up in Jackson Prison instead of School. Much to the surprise of the teachers we were «11 present the next day. In May the tide was turned we were on the receiving end at the Junior and Senior banquet. The 28th of May brought about Baccalaureate Services, on June 1st we closed our books of B.H.S. forever.
