Some More History - This Time the Closs of '46 In the fall of 42 we enrolled in B. H. S. to make our first showing, which proved successful. At first it was difficult for us to adjust ourselves to the new surroundings, but later we became acquainted with the students, and some of us joined in activities such as Glee Club, F. F. A., Junior and Senior Band, Track, Baseball, Basketball, and Dough Girls. We organized our class by electing officers. Our President was Billy Anderson, Secre- tary-Treasurer, Maxine Wann. To make a good beginning, we chose as our motto- Per aspera ad astra , flower, American Beauty rose, colors, cardinal and white. We were fortunate to get to help with the different war projects under the leadership of Miss Butler. As we gradually turned our revolving door, we swung into another year of education. Fellow-mates, we are now sophomores. We again elected officers, with DeVon Hough as President, Helen Barkman, Secretary, and Mary Ellen Silberg at Treasurer. There were two new students, Doris Dick- son and Donelda Cox, who came to join us this year, and two of our mates, James Knox and Wendell Krontz, left us to help in the aid of our country. Some students had the honor of belonging to the Girl Reserve and Hi-Y. Now that we had found our way around on the first floor, we could make ourselves at home with Miss Metz and Mr. Berg as our guides. Our officers this year were, Alice Dirrim as President, Bill Rosenberry, Vice-President, Polly Baldwin, Secretary, and Lynn Fuller, Treasurer. We Jolly Juniors had the pleasure of being hosts and hostesses of the Junior-Senior Recep- tion. A circus was used as our theme. Some of our mates had the privilege of presenting the successful Junior Play, g'The Student Queen, under the direction of Mrs. Verl Oberlin. After three years of companionship and working together, we were ready to take the escalator to the last floor of our education in B. H. S. Mrs. Stage and Mr. McCrory were the guides who led the way for us. Our class officers were Kenneth Groff, President, Bill Rosenberry, Vice-Presi- dentg Allen Dirrim, Secretary, and Bill Adams, Treasurer. We were very busy trying to make our last year a big success. Some students were again honored to present A Case of Springtime, our Senior Play, which Mrs. Verl Oberlin directed. She 'left us at the end of the first semester and Mr. May came to take her place. One of our classmates, Jacob Keesler, left us to serve in the Navy. Some of our class members were guests at Pauld- ing, Ohio, to talk on the Junior Town Meeting of the Air. Doris Nodine and Donald Newcomer were Butler's speakers. Allen Dirrim and Velma Dohner both asked the speakers questions. Their topic was, Shall there be compulsory military training? The annual staff has been busy working on the annual with Allen Dirrim as Editor-in-Chief. We seniors have been very fortunate to be able to graduate from
