FRESHMEN Back Row: Earl Smith, Russel Lillig, Marvin Hoover, Richard Peter- son, and Merlyn Vote. Front Row: Betty Thelin, Donna Carr, Shirley Lundberg, Marilyn Schultz, and Mr. Sykes. We were eight in number when we entered our first year in high school as freshmen. It was all very strange at first but we finally got used to the high school routine. Donna Carr joined our class later thus increasing our enroll- ment to nine. The year started out with the initiation of the freshmen, Sept. 21. The occasion consisted of dressing up in silly clothes and per- forming varlous stunts during the afternoon program. A few weeks later, a skating party was held in our honor at Fort Dodge with the entire high school attending. After skating the sophomores treated us to refreshments at Treloars. Early in the first semester we elected the following class officers: President ---------------- Betty Thelin -Vice-President ----- ---Shirley Lundberg Secretary A Treas. ------- Marilyn Schultz Class Sponsor ------------ Mr. J. U. Sykes Out of the class, five boys and three girls went out for sports and Marilyn Schultz was one of the cheer-leaders. The Freshmen subjects this year have been: English, General Mathematics, General Science, Home Economics and Manual Training. We hope to carry on next year as sophomores, so, beware nFresh- iesn of 1946!
