Janice Gearhart Henry Ford ...........Tony Crawford Reminiscing This year’s freshmen can look back on their first stab at high school, re- membering all the things that the upper classmen, especially the sopho- mores. tried to discourage them about. Everyone takes the freshmen for suckers, but now that it is all over, the freshies feel that three more years of high school promise to be lively ones. Even though it took them quite a while to muster up enough nerve to organize a class party, they definitely made up for lost time on their hay ride which was held in May. What is this younger generation coming to? By now the members of the class realize that besides good times worth- while knowledge and education can lx gained in high school. They are beginning to see why their parents wanted them to start out by taking the right courses. All in all. the freshmen are fully prepared to start off with a bang in their sophomore year. Next year’s freshmen can be guaranteed a super deluxe job of ribbing from the sopho- mores-to-be of next year. President’s Message We. the class of ’49. look back over the year as a happy one. Among the activities which we promoted, the hay ride, which was held in May. stood out as one enjoyed by all. The freshman class has had several outstanding people this year. Many of these are found in the cadet and i senior band. Sports too. have played a very important part in our activi- ; ties. Sue Hale was chosen class queen for the journalism carnival. Much credit, however, must be giv- en to our advisers. Mrs. Kiplinger. Mr. Huston. Mr. Powell and Miss Wells. Without them our successes would have been impossible. Also we would like to thank all the class officers for their fine co-operation which helped us so much in our first year in senior ! high. Sam Spagnuolo. President.

Their next year of high school is supposed to give them that, of course. The sophomore fellows and girls huve liecome quite chummy with each other this past year, and several cou- ples have come to be known as “in- separable”, so to speak. Then there are. as always, some guys and gals who have struck acquaintances'' with Juniors and seniors. Perhaps these factors are the certain something that made the class of '48 8 parties such howling successes. The tenth graders have been on hand all year to discourage the fresh- men. and some of them feel that they know all the answers. When they start off their junior year of high school, they will have a great deal to confront. We feel sure, however, that they will take it in their stride and muke a fine success of it.

Milford Mason. Joan David Henry Ford ............Peter Kardel President’s Message From the very first to the very last day. we sophomores have had a very enjoyable year. We have had parties und hay rides which turned out very successfully, with the help of our ad- visers. Hard work, planning, and co- operation have brought us to work to- gether as a winning team. The sopho- mores this year have made up a good percentage of the football and basket- ball teams. Six of our l est athletes have been a groat help to a prosperous school football team. Not only in football but in other athletic activities, the sophomores have been of assist- ance. They have played a most im- portant part in the Charlotte line-up. and we hope that there will be more from the class on the first team next year. We have had an active and success- ful, year in which we have worked to conserve money for our senior trip. Some events toward this consisted of two hot-dog sales which were well carried out because of the co-opera- tion of the advisers and the students. Sponsoring dances has also given us a tremendous profit toward this pro- ject. Our class dues were fifty cents and ninety-seven per cent of the class co-operated willingly which brought us approximately fifty-five dollars. Most of the money made by the sopho- mores this year has been raised by the class itself. At this time wre should like to thank our advisers for the support and at- tention they have given us during the year of 45-'46. Our gratitude goes to Mrs. Iauch. Miss Taffee, Mr. Grin- dull. and Mr. Straw for the wonderful help they have given us. Sammy Colizzi. President. Row 1— J. Ackley, R. Allen. J. Ball. L. Btrgman, N. Betty, B. Boyd. Row 2—L. Boyer, M.

The CHARH AN EIGHTH GRADE » IUf0O Version Toddy Roosevelt ..........Dan Drown Gibson girl ................Sue Hale Lily Langtry ............Yvonne Hill Richard Mansfield ........Dan Brown Lillian Russell .......Clara Mauney Diamond Jim Brady ....Carlton Dornau George Bernard Shaw....Jimmy Wilson Peek's Bad Boy .........Carl Rulison Huck Finn ..........Albert McDonald Fielding H. Yost ........Gerry Clark Class sweethearts ....Kenneth Sparks. Sue Hale Henry Ford ..........Carlton Dornan President’s Message We. the class of 1950. have had a prosperous year. We have sponsored several dances and parties such as Halloween. Valentine and Christmas. The eighth grade has had many bas- ketball games. The girls played Re- surrection. and the boys played other out-of-town teams. The junior high | had a talent assembly, which the; eighth grade took part in. The eighth grade has a few cheer leaders, which have had some pep meetings. We are looking forward to having many more properous years. Yvonne Hill. President. She: “Gee. what's the score . . I'm late? lie: “Nothing and nothing.” She: “Gosh, am I glad. I didn't miss anything then.” Your brains were put on the top; of your anatomy: see that they get top consideration.” Did you fall down with your good pants on. Tommie?” asked mother. Well. Mom. there wasn't time to take them off.” Reminiscing The eighth grade is quite ready for the first year of high school. Next year choosing their own subjects will be a great novelty. And imagine it. they won’t have to try to hide in the corners at the dances when ten-thirty comes! If the class of 1950 becomes as active in the ninth grade as it has been this past year, it will be sure of successful high school days. Many of the decorations made for seme of our more important dances were designed by eighth graders. Their experience will Ik of great value in the time to come. We couldn’t pass by without men- tioning the athletic ability of the eighth graders. The girls as well as the boys have had basketball, softball and bowling teams. Of course, some of the girls were pretty green at flrst- and it did take a little time to live down the boys’ scornful remark about. Aw. girls can’t catch or even throw a ball.” They did show them that they really could do it. however. By the reports of the eighth grades’ contribution to that exclusive junior high assembly, there ought to be a bang up one sponsored by the fresh- men next year. Bob Babcock and Gerry Clark really did some sharp acting. Wonder whom they were trying to impress? The cheering section at the football and basketball games had good assis- tant leaders provided by the eighth grade. The girls have real school spirit. Their last year of junior high has been a good basis for the class of 1950 to start out high school.
