CLASS HISTORY As the school year becomes shorter, day by day, we, the class of ' 43, begin thinking of the day when we will leave Tech. Naturally we think of all of our classmates and wonder whether we will be glad to leave Tech or not. We think of all of the wonderful times we have had on parties and in home rooms, how happy we were when we had a good program in the auditorium, or when we had a pep meeting before school was out. The football, basketball, and baseball seasons remind us of the things we re going to miss when we finish. Of course, we will return to all of the football games in the years to come, but we really do not feel that they will be as good as ours. We will remember that Mack Moyle, one of our football players, was in the Shriner ' s All-Star football game. We shall also come to see all of the junior plays, but still deep in our hearts, we will think that ours, For Pete ' s Sake, remains on top. Then we notice the changes that have taken place in our school. We see the gym, added in ' 36, and the stadium on the baseball field. The Student Council, governing body of the school, was re-organized by Miss Clegg, who also organized the Honor Society in ' 39. Our school is now a defense school and we have a pre-flight training course for our boys, who will go into Service shortly after school is out. Many of the boys and three of our teachers left after our junior year to offer their services to our country. Band and music classes were started in ' 36 by Mrs. Joslin: physical education classes now under Coach Stack and Miss Barger were also started in ' 36. Since the revision of the TECHNIQUE in ' 39, each senior class has published an annual. This year has kept us busy getting ads, collecting paper, making pictures, and getting material together for our annual. The profits from a very entertaining play, Demon in the Dark, given by a cast made up from the entire school, were used for our annual. We have chosen for our Annual Staff Ruth Rowland, editor-in-chief, Lois Rushing, associate editor, and Lefty House, business manager. Many things have been crowded into our senior year — meetings for elect- ing officers, discussing the class ring, electing superlatives, club meetings, study- ing, and last of all, classes. Many of our classes will never be forgotten, especially our English class under Mrs. Kistler and the many discussions or other inter- esting things that have happened there. Members of our class who are out- standing in all of these activities are George Smith, president of the class, Wilford Kistler, president of the Honor Society and vice-president of the class, Ruth Rowland, editor-in-chief of the TECHNIQUE and president of Girl Reserves, Martha Wright, treasurer of the class and Girl Reserves, and, of course, Lois Rushing, associate editor of the TECHNIQUE, who has been on and off crutches for the last three years. However, all of our school life was not study and work. We had many parties — kiddie party, Sadie Hawkin s Day party, weiner roasts, a boy friend banquet, swimming parties, and just friendly get-togethers. Daphne James, Class Historian.
