f': Senior Class History Four years have passed-four years with the space of four brief summers. We, the freshmen of 1939, stand today the seniors of 1942-about to become alumni. As the time for Commencement draws near, we, remembering the many delightful experiences we have had, look back upon the four years at Codorus Township High School with a feeling of joy and satisfaction. Almost from the beginning of our high school careers, we felt that we were an unusual class. We had a great deal of youthful energy and enthusiasm. However, after a time, we realized that most classes feel a certain amount of superiority, hence, we are content to believe that, as members of this student body, we have made some worthwhile contributions to the school we will be proud to call our Alma Mater. Frequently, in our memories, we recall the experiences and achievements that have been the highlights of our four years. In our freshman year we started out with the record-breaking class enrollment of fifty-eight pupils. We were inconvenienced a bit during that term through the construction work carried on to enlarge the school. After our class organized, we chose our class motto- Not the Sunset, but the Dawnf' class flower-pink carnation, and class colors-blue and white. We elected Kenneth Ehrhart president, George Smith, vice president, Lizzie Caslow, secretary, William Bortner, treasurer, Dorothy Albright, historian, and 'Marguerite Smith, reporter. Our class became quite active in extra-curricular activities, taking part in the annual Spelling Bee between Eichelberger High and Codorus Township High School, as well as the annual District Music Festival held each spring. A number of us appeared in the operetta, The Governor's Daughterv and A Christmas Carol. All but eight of our class returned to school as sophomores. The same officers were retained this year with two exceptions-Wilbur Rehmeyer became vice-president, and Annabelle Brodbeck, historian. In this year the boys in our class distinguished themselves in athletics, being especially active in soccer, baseball, and basketball. We made a Silas Marner scrapbook that won first prize at the York Fair. Several other exhibits also won prizes. This year the operetta, In Grand Old Switzerlandf, was presented with quite a number of sophomores in important roles. When we became juniors, our class membership had decreased to forty-three. Two changes were made in the class officers of vice-president and reporter which were taken over by William Angel and Norma Mae Thoman respectively. In this year a cast of eleven juniors successfully presented the play, Sunbonnet Jane of Sycamore Lane. The operetta, Chonita, with music based upon themes of Franz Liszt, was capably presented, with one-half of the cast selected from the junior class. Our senior year opened belateclly due to an epidemic of infantile paralysis, but it did not take us long to settle down to our last year of study. The same class ofhcers again assumed their duties with two exceptions-Ross Wildasin took the office of vice president and Norma Thoman that of secretary. This last term has been a busy one and time has not dragged. The class play, Lena Rivers, presented in December, was one of the first big events. Several members of the Glen Echo staff attended the Press Conference at Gettysburg. In order to add to our class treasury we sold Christmas cards and did very well. Several of our members have been very successful on the debating team. This year, as in each previous year, it has been a member of our class who carried away the prize at the Spelling Bee in Hanover, Pennsylvania. On February 6 the thirty- seven seniors wrote their MD. A. R. Essays, The Declaration of Independence-What It Means Today . Those written by Annabelle Brodbeclc, Lizzie Caslow, and Kenneth I 191
