Toni Don Freshmen in 1955 Clark, vice president: Jo Cropp, secretary: Bob Evans, treasurer, Hall, president Approximately four-hundred Fresh- men entered the halls of Chillicothe High School at the beginning of the year, climbed the stairs to third floor, found their session rooms, received their schedules, and proceeded to climb the class ladder. First week found the Frosh, with arms full of books, running to make their classes before the bell, and sometimes, much to their embarrassment, walking into the wrong rooms. After overcoming the difficulties which arise when entering a new school, the Frosh settled down to the even rou- tine of C. H. S. The four-hundred voices could be heard at the football as- semblies. proudly giving their own class yell, or at the game cheering our team on to victory. Now, the Freshmen, after having climbed the first step on the ladder, slowly and a little regretfully, after all the fun of the year, step as sophomores to become a wise fool. f uiiifffr i j , Q X l .1 of :f 1' it .
