THE CLASS HISTORY FRESHMAN YEAR How strange it seemed to start out our freshman year with a brand new classl All will admit we were a little shy and timid. Other than a new class we had a new adviser whom some of us had never seen before. However, we soon knew Miss Shelhamer and with her guidance and that of our officers, we flew through our freshman year. The only social activity was a skating party which was a big success, and which showed the school that this class of 1943 would be the best yet. The officers for our freshman year were as follows: President ....... . . . . . Ruth Futey Vice President . . . . . Ruth Gordon Secretary ....... . . . June Waller Treasurer ......... . . . Lillian Morel Social Chairman .... Manuel Thomas SOPHOMORE YEAR Our sophomore year was the time we really began to go places. With the grand ideas and wonderful guidance of our adviser, Miss Shelhamer, we had a very successful year. However, great cooperation was displayed throughout the entire year on the part of the whole class. We had many skating parties, raffles, dances, movies, and many other affairs for making money. The experience encountered in our sophomore year helped to prepare us for the more complicated tasks approaching us in our junior year. The officers of our sophomore year were as follows: President ....... . . . Manuel Thomas Vice President .... Ruth Gordon Secretary ..... Elsie Bain Treasurer ......... .... L illian Morel Social Chairman Dona Harding

THE CLASS HISTORY JUNIOR YEAR This was the year for work, and we really did our share. We did just about everything that could be done to make our class a success. We had skating parties, dances, raffles, and home-made candy sales. We sold refreshments at the football games. The class play, Tempest and Sunshine, was successfully given. We also had a minstrel which was very clever. Our greatest task, of course, was the Junior-Senior Prom. We had the Air Liners from Pittsburgh to play for us. The prom was a great success, and thus ended our year with great fun for all. Officers for our junior year were as follows: President ............................. Manuel Thomas Vice President . . . . . Ruth Gordon Secretary ....... . . . June Waller Treasurer ......... . . . Lillian Morel Social Chairman . . . . . . Dona Harding SENIOR YEAR We seniors, realizing this to be our last year together, started oft with a bang. At the beginning of the year we had several skating parties and dances. On December 10 and ll our class play was given. The play chosen for this year was Arsenic and Old Lace. It was under the capable direction of Miss Mary Thomas, a new member of our faculty. In February the juniors and seniors had a social party together in the auditorium. Everyone had a good time, and it was a party we will long remember. The day most of us seniors looked forward to finally came. Of course, this was Class Day. This day was devoted entirely to seniors and every senior took part. The prom was held this year in the Eagles' ballroom as usual. The juniors gave us a very lovely memory, and we thank them for everything. Finally came Baccalaureate and Commence- ment and with them came many wet eyes and sad hearts. We seniors leave now, but we won't forget you, B. H. S. We'll think about the teachers, our advisers, and all the things our school life has taught us. We'll remember our school days as The fondest memories recall, that we have ever known. The officers for our senior year were as follows: President ............................. Manuel Thomas Vice President J. Lee Howell Secretary ..... .. Lois Baumberger Treasurer ......... . . .
