CLASS HISTORY The records of this class are missing from the first grade to the fourth grade hut this is as we remember it. Starting in the first grade were Alice McCarty, Marjorie Malott, Sue Ann Tanksley, Ely Shank, Bob Cunningham, Clarence Leitzow, Gene Whaley, Marvin Pickett, Bill Cline, Shirley Zurschmede, Jim Plott. Ronnie Strain. Jerry Uylat, Ronnie Clark, Bill Lee, and William Aliss. In the second grade Mrs. Tanksley was our teacher. Shirley Zurschmede left us that year. Norman Standish, Barbara Aliss. Neil Vanderkolk. Bob Herriman, Esther Honn, Estel Honn, and Dennis Dowty entered. Bob Herriman and Neil Vanderkolk dropped out in the third grade. Sue Carol Hendry, Clara Strain, and Joe Schuster entered. Our class was divided. Part of the class was in with the second grade with Mrs. Pombert as the teacher. The other half of the class was with the fourth grade with Mrs. Sainte as their teacher. We have always wondered which half of the class was the smarter. In the fourth grade Mrs. LeGrand was our teacher. Rita Evans, Diane Wil- son, and Bernard Flynn entered. Alice McCarty dropped out. In the fifth grade Mrs. Carter was our teacher. Bob Nugent, Eileen Griffin, Maxine Fowler, and Ernest Yeoman entered. Again in the sixth grade Mrs. Carter had to put up with us. Norman Standish. Ernie Yeoman, and Marjorie Malott dropped out. Our seventh grade year we got to go up stairs with the high school kids. Calvin Whaley entered our class. Our eighth grade year there were five girls and ten boys. In our Freshman year Carol Anderson, John Haynes, Eileen Griffin, Donna Harris, Martha Riegle’ Virginia Guthrie, and Calvin Whaley entered from Ade and Peggv Cain, Loren Ferris, and Sue Wilson entered from Foresman. Clara Strain, Ely Shank, and Diane Wilson withdrew. The next year we had twenty two members during the year we lost one class- mate, Bernal Varboncouer. and gained another. Ernie Yeoman. We were very proud of our red and blue class sweaters we obtained this year. We had some swell class parties and a very pretty Christmas dance. Our Junior year Diana Lash, Pat Fowler, and Phyllis Fowler entered. This was the vear we started making money, we sold magazines, and concessions at the ball games. We had a good play “Grandpa’s Twin Sister’’ and the prettiest prom the Brook gym ever saw. At the beginning of our Senior year we had 26 members, no one entered and Sue Carol Hendry dropped out. We were starting the homestretch, waiting but dreading the familiar strains of “Pomp and Circumstance.” We kept on making money and presented the play “Mother Is A Freshman which everyone enjoyed. We are all looking forward to the wonderful trip to New York and Washington which everyone worked so hard to obtain. We all hope we will be as happy and have as much fun out of school as we did in school.
