Class History In the early autumn of the year nineteen hundredand forty-teven. a group of thirty-one lively and energetic boy and girl made their way to the study hall when the nine o clock bell rang on their first day at Deming High School. The first person we saw on entering home-room was Mi Dorthea Case, whom we soon learned was to be our Sponsor. Our first year passed In the usual manner as we left behind the role of Green Freshman and became Silly Sophomores. in our second year, being twenty-four In number, and with Mr. Hughes as our homeroom sponsor, we found ourselves living in the Agriculture Building, popularly known as the Barn. At the close of the school term in our Sophmore year, we took a trip to Coney Island just as we had done at the end of our Freshman year. During this year we also began our routine of collecting monthly dues, eagerly anticipating the time when we as Seniors would be taking our trip of trips. Into our Junior year, beginning with an enrollment of twenty-eight and Mr. Hughes again as our sponsor, we crowded a great number of activities including a Junior and Senior Banquet, the Junior Play and another trip to Coney Island. We began our Senior year with the loss of one. This time Mr. Harding, the new Agriculture teacher, was our home-room sponsor. Besides our studying for driver education, English, history, typing, science, agriculture and sociology, we were otherwise employed in getting ads for our Annual, selling magazines, helping with tht Halloween Carnival, making plans for the Senior play and graduation and anticipating a big trip at the end of school, all of which adds up to the close of the history of the Deming High School Senior Class of 1950-51.
