.ne -ass of 1 48, looking back over our experiences In Brlxfield : .igrv fl-d t'iat we would not excnange t...pRe four years for anytning. Tne first memory picture that coes to our minds Is, of course, res liman lnl Ip :lon. Tnere were tne funny costumes, tne parade through town, and tne ‘aln event at nignt wnen everyone na 1 to go tnrougn tne 1 lne. During tne first montn of sc.nool we elected our officers for tne year. They were President, Petty Howe; vice President, YUladean Peln-nart; Secretary and Treasurer, Joe Brldson, In December we presented tne traditional Cnristmas party vitn the al of our sponsor, Mr. Dossey. We rememoer esoeclally tne c.nicken and cheese sandwiches whlcn we served for refreshments. Soon after we returned to school as Sophomores we sponsored the Initiation party with Mr. Prasrer's able assistance. Our officers for that year were President, erna Edvards; lce President, Ward Harding; Secretary, Patricia Dungan; nn’ treasurer, erta Slocum. Then during our Junior yes ve really began to show a little prominence. Our first accomplishment vac the presentation of tne play, Where's Grandma? , wnich added a tidy sum to our treasury. In tne srrir.g we took a trio to S» r4. gf leld and Mew Salem with our social studies teacher, Mr. Blackford.
