Freshman Class History On September 7, 1936, twenty-seven ninth graders appeared at C. T. H. S. to begin a new type of work. How bashful some of them were! The shyness lasted only a very short time. A week after school opened, Lucreta Wagner withdrew, she did not like high school work. Perhaps she did not give it a sufficiently long trial. A week later Betty Gladfelter joined our class, now we again had an enrollment of twenty-seven. ' On November 9, Margaret Mulligan began work with us, a week later, her sister, Cecelia, joined our class. Both the girls transferred from ninth grade in Quakertown High School, Quakertown, Pennsylvania. Mr. Bushey, our class adviser, called a class meeting, after we had had sufiicient time to learn to know everyone in the class. Ac this time we selected the following officers: President, Gordon Snyder, vice-president, Charles Brenneman, secretary, Romaine Smith, treasurer, Virginia Burns, historian, Vera Krebs, class reporter, Florine Warner. Soon after that we had another meeting to select the class Hower, the Carnation, the colors, Maroon and White, the motto, Paddle Your Own Canoe. This motto should be a good guide for us, it should remind us that we do our work ourselves. In school activities during the year, the freshmen have done their share. Several joined the Science club. All served on Literary Society programs, most of the freshmen became interested in basketball. Our class work seemed difficult, we needed quite a little while to become acquainted with the new work. Now that we have made the start, we do hope to continue. Ar the end of the first semester, Percy Shearer, because of ill health, discontinued school. We are indeed sorry to lose another classmate. May the rest of us remain firmly united and definitely resolved to return as alert sophomores, next fall. V. L. K., '40. Books cannot always please, however good, Minds are not ever craving for their food.-CRABBE. Simplicity of character is no hindrance to subtlety of intellect.-JOHN MORLEY. E291
