THE HILLTDPPER CLASS HISTORY ln the fall of 1936, the good ship BHS-40 took off on its first flight. With Miss Hess as stewardess, lohn Alexander as pilot, Iohn Artley co-pilot, Russell Fee radio-operator, and the crew completed by ticket-seller Donald Nihart, the take-off was delayed only by an elaborate farewell party commonly known as the Freshman lnitiation. When the passengers were finally on board, the fate- ful flight was begun. A summer stop for refuelling, check-up, and a few crew changes was soon only a memory to the voyagers. The new crew was made up of Mr. McCuen, lim Ganger, Charles Hanes, and Don Nihart in the respective positions as named above with the exception of the change in title of stewardess to steward for Mr. McCuen. The flight from here to the next stop was uneventful with the exception of a few cases of bad weather, and one hold by the Pirate ship BHS-39 when they sold us the trash for the funior Carnival. The third leg, and so far the most eventful, of the trip was taken under the guidance of Mr. Neff, chief of pilot Bob Losher's advisory committee. Assisting Bob were Co-pilot fini Ganger, Radio-Operator Margaret Graham, and ticket- seller Maridean Bimpler. A brief stop was made at the Coney Island of the midwest, The Iunior Carnival. With this behind them, the adventurers soon started rehearsal for a play called Aunt Samanthy Bules the Boost . After its dip into the world of drama, the BHS-40 continued its course. As a grand finale to a thrilling trip, the Cnowl Iuniors gave for the Seniors' Cand their ownb en- joyment a combination dance banquet. The day, April 1, 1939, will long re- main in the memories of those present at All Fools Night, as it was called. April 23 brought the mighty airship down for another interval before the final lap was entered. At last, the long awaited end to the flight was drawing near. Bob Losher again held his post of pilot, Delores Swinehart ventured into the co-pilot's seat, Maridean Bimpler took over as radiofoperator, and Adah Tripp as ticket-seller. Miss Van Harlingen was ever present to make sure the plane did not take a nose dive on this last and most exacting lap. One day in October, those who expected to complete the journey into the realm of education posed for a photographer that their pictures might be ranged alongside of those who had been victorious in former flights. As is properly fitting to a successful flight, the end was one mingled with sorrow and joy. The first preparation for entering the home port, Alumnus, was Class Night given April 2, The Dinner Dance given us by the luniors was held April 8. Baccalaureate was held Apri17. On April 13, the final landing was made, and with Commencement the good ship BHS-40 settled down with its crew and passengers numbering 26. -eA. T. 12
