CLASS HISTORY Little Cherubs, twenty-nine in a circle facing Mrs. Paul Poush in 1936 formed the nucleus of our current senior class. Only nine remained to make their entry into high school. They were: Ruth Johnston, Betty Barber, Betty Johnson, Hazel Edgerton, Norma Seago, Irene Greening, Harold Summers, Vaughn Stevens and Jerry Fidler. Years sped by and our footsteps became larger as we trekked from room to room. On fifth grade level we were climbing steps to Junior High. Upon reaching the eighth grade two stalwart youths, Daune Walter and Robert Kutz joined our class. Green but willing we became freshman in September, 1944. Here our class was given a real boost by the addition of Betty Ricketts, Dorothy Dixson, Glenn Brooks, Richard Arnold, Jim Nelson, Daune Smith, Helen O'Brien, June Hockemier, Claudine Owens, Paul Johnson, Roger Jones, Phyllis Ohlson, Dar- rel and Earl Rauch. Under the supervision of Mr. R. N. Nelson, we elected Vaughn Stevens as president; Duane Walter, vice-president; Anjula Dick, sec- retary; Harold Summers, student council representative. Taking advantage of the two allotted parties we enjoyed a Halloween celebration and a scavenger hunt. The fall of '45 saw us returning as sophomores, well-acquainted with C. H. S. and its customs. This years' activities were under the direction of Mr. E. W. Dyas. Richard Arnold, president; Hazel Edgerton, vice-president; June Hocke- mier, secretary; Duane Smith, treasurer; and Claudine Owens as student council representative composed the executive group of our class. Things began to happen for us in our junior year. Our play, Health, Wealth and Romance” proved quite successful. That great day in November when our class rings arrived will never be forgotten! Cleora Teter became a member of our class and the officers were: President, Phyllis Ohlson; vice- president, Vaughn Stevens; secretary, Bob Kutz; treasurer, Duane Walters; Student council representative, June Hockemier; representative at large, Duane Smith. The climax of the year came with the Junior-Senior banquet in May. The Gypsy theme was carried out. Miss Phyllis Lowe acted in the capacity of our sponsor. In September, 1947, we strated on the last mile of the way with Miss Lowe again as our class sponsor. Gordon Perkins from Red Oak, Iowa swelled our graduating number to twenty-seven. Our senior officers were: Bob Kutz, president; Betty Johnson, vice-president; Norma Seago, secretary-treasurer; Betty Barber, student council representative. We chose aqua and rose as our class colors and for our flower, the American Beauty Rose. During this event- ful year the class pictures arrived, we gave our play, attended the Junior- Senior banquet, had sneak day, and then - - almost before we realized it our school days were over. Never again would we enter C. H. S. as students but our memories will return to inspire us toward a higher goal. -11—
