FRESHMEISI CLASS HISTORY The freshmen class? Ah, yes -The freshmen! They wander thru the halls and try to look intelligent and full of the world's wisdom. There are seventy-two fresh- men with seventy-two different ideas, attitudes, and brands of humor. Darwin Backhoff, it is rumored, puts his hair up in wave clips every night. Perry Balmer, Charles Berry, Dean Bowser, Donald Bowser, and Owen Balsley seem a bit shy, but I bet they know more than they are telling. Norma Becknell, l pre- dict, will some day be a chorus girl. ,loyce Bowser could have a great future run- ning a date bureau with Mary Fowler, Betty Heckaman, June Longbrake, Joan Stol- ler, Berdene Ringenberg. Can you imagine Eleanor Bishop, Lucille Forsythe, June Gongwer, and Lettie Odom as partners in a candy store and being famous for their chocolate-covered marshmallows? Phyllis Church and Carol Yocum have more fun playing at different sports than anything else. Or do they? Betty Corl can best be described by HLittle but mightyf' Donna Cripe and 4'What sweet delight a quiet life affordsn are as one. Maynard Dietrich will always be remembered for his ability to make points for the other team as he did in the 4-H vs. Hi-Y game. Law- rence Edel and Loren Walker upassed the grades one by one - and also had a lot of fun. Dean Farrer, Harold Kline, and Billy Harrington always will remember to live with all their might - while they live. l can easily visualize Lois Craverson, Methabelle Haenes, Betty Hand, Theda Hill, Iris Kensinger, and Geneva Kiefer as secretaries to that extremely important government ofhcial, Dale Freeze, Jr. Neva Jane Heinke has as her life's motto: HAn ounce of mirth is a pound of sorrowf' Robert Heminger has a love for playing basketball that few know about. Virginia Hoffman is the class beauty, as you can plainly see! Martha Huff was elected yell- leader this year and she can lead 'emi Jeanette Holderman occasionally gets to a class before the bell rings. The entire class is proud of Raymond Mayer 'cause he made the first five of the second team. Bill Leeper is THE student. Bill will prob- ably do something that'll be hard to master. Dewey Martin and Merl Scott are the silent Romeos in the freshmen class. Gerald- Mast believes that people have the most fun. Leroy Miller and Carl Heindrichs could easily be known in years to come as: uMow 'em down Miller and Hot and Hazy Hendrichsf, The two fighters, Aline Rector and Blanche Weldy, are two girls, therefore may be wooedg they are two girls and may also be won. Lyle Redman may some day be a missionary on a South Sea Island. When Don Walterhouse and Vern Troup hear that gals wear sarongs on that island, theyill join him. Phyllis Reed,s the little freshman who proves: '6The best things come in small packages. Esther Beidenbach and Shirley Seiber should remember, 6'l'd rather have a fool to make me happy, than experience to make me sad. Eldon Roeder would make a cute undertaker, you know, ----- more people killed, cutest undertakers! Bill Sahlhoff's greatest ambition is to walk on stilts. Ruth Sahlhofif, Lovonne Whisman, and Edith Zillmer are going to take the place of Western Union Delivery boys. Hazel Stayton could easily become a great author. loan now see a movie version of her latest book with Ruth Stuntz playing the title role. Edwin Vernon has a great name to carry on. Roland Weil I can feature as a newspaper columnist. Maxine Zillmer will be known in years to come as: 'fMaxine the snake Charmerf' Well, that's it. The entire class. All in all, they're a pretty good bunch. Herefs to the class of '45l May they all do O. K. But then they should. Look who has guided them in their first year of high school.
