THE UNIQRS I-HSTCDRY OF Tl-IE CLASS OF i945 The Class of '45 began its Freshman year numbering nearly seventy. As leaders we selected: Chairman, Florence Smith and Vice-Chairman, Harold Gilbert. Our most successful project was a movie . . We started off well in the sports field, for Red Broderick, Bill Van Ness, Harold Gilbert, and Bill Scovel played football. Walt Passet, Red Broderick, and Harold Gilbert played on the Junior Varsity, while Helen Wilbur, Constance Bowes and Margaret Radley led cheers throughout the season. Becoming Sophomores, we chose as our adviser Coach Brundage, and elected: President, Harold Gilbert, Vice-President, Eugene Broderick, Treasurer, Dorothy Williams, and Secretary, Florence Smith. In accordance with our right to join the Arbor Day ceremonies, we displayed as our colors, crimson and white and as our flower, a brilliant red Carnation. With the Class of '44 we feted the Senior Class with a banquet at the Episcopal Church and a dance at school. Becoming Juniors, we immediately got down to business, electing as officers: President, Harold Gilbert, Vice-President, Eugene Broderick, Treasurer, Margaret Radley, and Secretary, Florence Smith. Our competent adviser was Miss Mary Mickle. We have several members in the armed forces, among them Harold Gilbert, Walter Passet and Edward Tracey. When our President left us, we placed in his position Eugene Broderick, with Arthur Kern as Vice- President. Since our new President entered the Senior Class, we elected Wilbert MacFarlane in his place. Our members have always been very active in sports, as is shown by our record. Willard Swiers was chosen by his teammates as Captain of the Varsity. Red Broderick, Wilbert MacFarlane, played Varsity positions. Captain of the cheerleading squad was Helen Wilbur, ably supported by Patricia Hartigan, Constance Bowes, Virgina Race, and Dorothy Williams. We selected class rings, although we have not yet received them. This year, as in other years, we sponsored a movie at the Crandell Theatre. As we look forward to our Senior year, we are determined to make it our most successful. l36l lOURNEY'S END
