Wad ffmzezhf W Marana fvealal - THE FRESHMEN When visitors in 'a factory watch body meet chassis at the 'body drop they may not suspect that the graceful lines of that body had their originbin a lump of clay, that this wonderful machine is the product of various raw materials from many different sections of the country and many oth- er industries. It is also hard to believe that the confident, skillfully developed Seniors were once timid, inexperienced Freshmen. These Freshmen come from a variety of places, from the towns and from the country, just as the materials which complete the assembly line come from the forests, farms, and mines. Higher and more complex school standards have invited a greater number of various talents just as fac- tory requirements h'ave demanded a variety of cooper, glass, aluminum, steel, and rubber. Some of us were timid, some of us were bold, and the rest of us were mediocre . . . we were the seventy Freshmen who entered the doors of Bushnell High that morning of September 3, 1940. After gettting into the wrong class, not get-ting to class at all, and being called t'greenhorns by our wise Seniors, we thought initiation was over. They didn't. So they set aside two days for initi- ating us properly. And they did! . When we felt at home, we selected our leaders . . sponsor, Miss Warfelg president, Betty Gorkeg vice-president, Bob King, secretary-treasurer, Mary Jane Carleyg and student councilors, Norma- gene Swanson and Bill Weber. Some of us went out for basketball, some for football, and others of us raced with the Seniors for the honor roll. Since all good products start with the right materials, so a good Senior Class starts with a good Freshman Class. View any finished product . . . but consider wha-t made it great. , 'fi vqn engine .74 Roan -THE SOPHOMORES On the third day of September, 1939, Hfty carloads of supplies were on a siding 'by the factory at B. H. S. The engineer in charge was Miss Warfel and in the Hrst car was Bob McElvain. The cars were unloaded and put through several processes to prepare the materials for uses to which they would be put later. Some of these processes were English, Mathematics, Science, Industrial Arts, and Home Economics. If the material was of the right grade, it passed the rigid tests 'and was accepted for use in the factory. In the first year we, as students, found ourselves. We realized that there was a big job to be done during these next four years. ' In the planning of an automobile, the engine is one of the first things designed. During the rest of the time until production begins, it is 'being constantly tested and even after the final assembly is made, the engine is thoroughly checked. In the experimental stage our motors are tested in many ways. Those out for athletics receive those well known 'ttorture testsf' but there are also less stren- uous 'tests that are just as accurate when it comes to revealing performance and durability. For this all important year of engine development we chose Jim Guynn for president, Bob McElvain, vice- preslidentg and Harriet Rogers, secretary-treasurer. Mr. Lorance, chief engineer, personally guided US. K . Built, discarded, remedied, and built again, the engines were finally recommended by 'the chief englineer and we awaited the coming year.
