CLASS HISTORY, continued 9th grade . . . More fun! Ann began going with Merritt Burke. Hugh Martin left to go to Milford I-IEg 1. For the Frst tim: in many years, we had a Freshman Odd Day-and was it odd! Girls in slacks and the fellows running around throwing candy at the poor passerby. Bettiann starred in the school play. Johnny Roper and Ann left us to go to C. R. 10th grade . . . Remember that fabulous French Cafe party? It was real dangerous. . . Cozy little tables for two arranged around a runway for our French fashion show. Ah, the fashion showg how Frenchy can we get? Remember how dis- appointed we were when Sister Edgeworth got tired of waiting for models and unexpectedly term- inated the show? Sister left us to go to school in New York. Becky gave a swell party on the night of the Thanksgiving game. The result was one broken antique sofa after a friend from Cape May, N. J., Pedie, pushed Russell McNeil down on it. Remember those well-lighted impromptu parties Pat and Anne threw every week-end and the time Mrs. Marker caught Frank and Becky up- stairs?-in the den, that is. 11th grade . . . Can we ever forget those chem- istry classes with Duckworth and the sulphur oxide he let loose that made everybody sick. We got our wish and had a wonderful Prom-a very, very, colorful Mardi Gras . Oh, remember those 1700-yes, I said 1700-balloons? We danced to the music of Ken Jenny and raised a small riot at Bob Ching's afterwards. That talent show of Mr. Schriver's was a big business. Walter, Billy, and Tommy made good models with their size nine dresses and nine and a half shoes. John was swell in the school play and so were Nina, Betti- ann, and others. Becky had another Open House party-this time at the Century Club, no more broken furniture. The day the class rings ar- rived will always be remembered as the Junior Stampede? The following day, you could tell at a glance the class of '50. We flourished them in people's faces and screamed, Look, aren't they beautiful? 12th grade . . . After waiting expectantly twelve, long years, the school finally caught fire. Alas, our efficient firemen quickly extinguished the blaze. Remember Jerry Cullen's 95 yd. dash for a touch- down? Our favorite class was right after lunch in the cars, talking--and, I think you know the rest. Our Christmas dance was a success with Frankie C'You are my Sunshine J Pingatore fur- nishing the music. We had Christmas trees, Santa Clauses, red-nosed Rudolphs, and Warm'punch. It seems that Bob McNeil, chairman of the ice committee, forgot the ice. The Juniors staged a wonderful Prom, the Dreamer's Holiday. Our class trip was a riot. How about that house de- tective! ' At last, slowly, by degrees, we approached the end of the year. None of us shall forget Becky's recital and Ray McMichael's placing in the Loy- alty contest. In a couple more days we won't be seniors any- more, we will be thrust among that worldly group of people known as Alumni. By this time, Ralph Adams has found out the meaning of Mandy - Frank Swain has thrown away his crutches and Marian Price has told us her middle name. The rest of the kids have succeeded ia finishing things they began days, months, even years ago. It seems hard to believe the day that we've been waiting for since the very first of school is almost here. We will never, never forget the tight spots we've been in. We hate to leave but we must move on so that others can take our places and have the same wonderful times we've had. And so--we say our goodbyes and leave with fond memories of the good times we've had at old Dover High. Page Twenty- Three
