l'Rl'SI1llE,N SUUN Hh'l,'UlIla' .-ICOIQ-lI.N'Tla'lI UITII RHYTHJI UF STl'l11i.NT LHP September-Our first day at ECHS! All 246 of us freshies were scared green, What rush- ing through the halls! ! New faces-new friends-new teachers! At our first class meet- ing, with Miss Davis and Mr. Iohnston making us feel very much at home, we nominated members for Student Council. Later Barbara Anderson and Gerald Kane were elected. Vile were thrilled to see many of our names in The Spirit. Gradually we became accus- tomed to the new life at high school. October- You've got the pep! -Yes, we freshmen surely had, for we attended every football game at which we loyally and loudly cheered for the Red Devils, our classmates on the bench, and, last but not least, Doc Liv- ingston, our freshman manager. A committee with Walter Sutilla as chairman drew up our constitution, which was adopted by the class. Autumn came, and the fallen red and gold leaves were trampled under foot. November-Hooray! ! We brought luck to our Red Devils, for they became Conference Champs. We had a vacation, for it was Thanks- giving-but soon back to 5x Yi' y 15 and Semper Paratus. December-At last the Topsy Turvy Dance . . . . . freshman girls were definitely on the beam because now was their chance! Then . . . eleven long, carefree days for Christmas vacation . . . to enjoy new skates, skis, clothes, and presents galore. Oh-Frank Sinatra-oh! ! january-Ch unhappy day! Our basketball heroes let us down when they lost to the juniors 54-8. At our class meeting we elected our officers. They are Iames Maloney, Presi- dentg Roy Iames, Vice President, Carroll An- derson, our minute-maker, Eleanor Kushner, who had some time collecting all our dues, Nancy Wright and William Orange, our re- porters, who were always on the lookout for news ..... Robert Colberg left us to join the Navy. March--Excitement! ! The freshies were stars! There was a Latin play in Friday assem- bly, and freshmen took part, We believe Bar- bara Larimer had enough spirit to be all four years of Latin instead of just Latin I. We also took some part in the Music Festival, being members of the various musical organizations. Our representatives for The Flamingo were Eleanor Kushner, Doris Yorgey, and Gerald Kane. We chose our banner and colors this month at our class meeting. April-Prospects for a skate were discussed . . . . . Umbrellas--raincoats-boots . . . for we had April showers and heard the first peepers of spring. May-Spring flowers and four more weeks of school! At last came those reports announc- ing that most of us had graduated from green freshies to sophisticated sophies. ff, U l.f.f I .ro RIGHT' xxru ft...--if rn.-pf..-V... I N NK .th Ry N1 in v n

September-Back to school, we trooped- two hundred strong-this time as sophisti- cated sophomores ready to endure the rigors of plane geometry and Caesar. We were greeted by our class adviser, Mrs. Davis, and our second year at ECHS started with a bang! October-Our banner with its inspiring motto, Seeking Higher Things, was proudly displayed. Congratulations, Ruthanna! We cer- tainly appreciale your effort in planning the design. This months attraction was the skate. Imagine! Two hundred people attended! No wonder Bettie Hardin found her feet in front of her instead of under her. November-Well! That certainly was a load off our minds when the responsibility for run- ning the class was handed over to our newly elected officers--President Zane Bolinger, and his capable assistants, Rena Sisti, Carolyn Gri- fith, Rosemary Bloom, Pauline Gatto, and lack Kinkead. December-And just listen to this! lack Emptield, Irvin Foust and Iack Kinkead dis- played such brilliant tactics on the football field that they earned their letters this season. Another laurel for the Class of '45! Ianuary-Flash! ..... Biggest surprise of the year! The Sophomore Girls' Trio finally learned a new song, and the everlasting Rio Rita was permanently discontinued. I Ill INII I ILUR . . .

Anna Thomas and Margaret Katona exhibited skill in art by making a beautiful Valentine box for the Home Economics Department. . . . . . Sophomore Latin students presented a portion of Shakespeare's Iulius Caesar. Tom Brutus Englehart and Mark Antony Myers made noble-looking Romans, but the weep- ing sophomores threatened to flood them off the stage. March-Sophomores in the limelight again! Pat Dunegan, Dale Guynn, and Frances Whar- ton in the English Program proved what might happen to slang-users. And we hardly recog- nized Doris Rice with her southern accent and black face! April-Ah Spring! And with it came that same old feeling. Nadine and Kiff seemed to be hampered by the presence of a rose- scented cloud hovering over them. Of course in the spring a young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love. The Sophomore Party blotted out everything unpleasant this month. Despite rationing the food was super- abundant and super-delicious. The rare Tib- bott and Taylor Piano Team also contributed toward making the party a howling success! May-At last! Another year gone, and as we step from the ranks of the silly sophs to the exulted state of upper-classmen, we look triumphantly back on our happy sophomore yea.: The boys from our class who entered the armed forceslare: Bronson Bradley, Richard Brown, lack Bumford, Iames L. Edwards, Rob- crt lllig, and Richard Leary. . ,. .HH
