THE SENIOR CLASS HISTORY In the year of 1945 we entered high school. It was in this year that we had five members from Newland to join us, which made us twenty-six in number. Our home room teacher was Miss Martha Sawyer who had to put up with a lot of our silly notions about high school. It was in this year with the girls dressed as boys and the boys dressed as girls that we were initiated into the FHA and FFA. Most of us survived the freshman year but a few dropped out to take another course in life. All of us tried to be pretty mean that year in all our English Classes with everything from tripping the teacher to putting the waste paper basket over the door to fall on the teacher's head. A group of us left school one day without permission and went to a cafe for dinner but we got caught. Then when the fat stock show came along we all went with or without permission. There were no classes that day. Then as Juniors we got along fine except for a few in French. We gave a play The Campbells are Coming which was a hit, in fact we gave it twice. The biggest thrill was the Junior-Senior Banquet. We decorated the gymnasium in colors of both classes, which were green, yellow and white. It was really very pretty with the candle light and all the pretty evening gowns. This year we had a Mother-Daughter Banquet with soap for gravy. And then we became Seniors. The worst part about it is missing the Seniors of last year. We have tried to be dignified but we have found that very difficult. Our biggest pest is Thomas Ed. He has given quite a few of us paddlings with books, um-m-m rather hard with having to sit down all day long in school. Nothing exciting has happened this far but we are looking for excitement before long to hasten the time until graduation. 11
