l 1946 ANNUAL 1 SENIOR CLASS HISTORY 1942 - 1943 In the year 1942, the future class of 1946 entered the rank of high school students. We suffered as all Freshies seem to, from being teased and humiliated by the very superior upper classmen. Our enrollment was thirtyfthree, with the girls leading by six. We survived, however, and chose John Portwood to lead our class through its perilous first year. Alice Slater kept notes on our meetings and since we had so much business to attend, was assisted by Bernice Dawson. Raymond Graf and Arthur Meyer well represented us on the Student Council. Mrs. Fox was elected our adviser and held this position for the first half of the year, when she was replaced by Mr. Huff. We did a lot of deciding that year, it seems. We chose our class colors. Then we decided to have a party - but what kind? It took us months to make up our minds. VVe finally decided to have it in Shaw's barn. We had lots of fun after all. We gained a few: Frances Haley, Marilyn Wachtel, and Ada McCoy. During the year we lost several students: Donald Fry, Ada McCoy, James Gerstenslager, and George Marko. The Seniors gave us an initiation party. We were miserable all day with our dresses on wrong side out and all the terrible makefup they forced us to wear. In the evening they gave us a swell party and we decided they weren't so bad after all. This seems to be the extent of our activities in the Freshman year. Adios to our first year in high school. 1943 - 1944 Most eagerly did we start our sophomore year. Sophisticated, poised and willing to give our advice to anyone whom we thought needed it. We elected as our officers for the year Harold Reese, president, assisted by Alice Slater, Secretary and Treasurer, Roberta Wilesg Student Council, Kent Ripley and Virgil Markley. Miss Kalkas filled the capacity as our adviser. ' We initiated the freshies this year. It was rather rough but lots of fun. Our enrollment was boosted by the entrance of Arthur Boone and Mardell Starcher. We lost some valued members, namely, Clarence Bricker, Raymond Graf, YVilbur Swigart, Grace Pinkley, Mardell Starcher, Elmer fPa ge Tlmteenj
