CLASS HISTOKY Long, long ago, way back in the war-darkened September of 1942, we made our debut” at Dover High. We were eager, excited, and a little scared of the many things which suddenly loomed before us. All the world was in a state of war-hysteria. Our armies were battling ferociously in the Pacific and it made us feel quite helpless not to be able to get into war-work in order to help them. We were too young; however, we did the best we could by-buying War Stamps and Bonds and trying to equip ourselves better for the peace when it came. The seniors razzed us, and made our lives miserable for awhile; but the razzing soon stopped and we settled into the gruelling task of getting ourselves through our freshman year. Gradually we gained self-confidence and attacked our freshman activities with gusto. At the polls” we elected Archie Nicholas, president; Blanche Detwiler, vice-president; Milton Bradford, secretary; and Robert Taylor, treasurer. At last, we reached the point where we were no longer dumb freshmen. As sophomores, we were rewarded with an extra hour of sleep each morning when the silence bell rang at 9:30 instead of 8:30. We still had seven periods in our day, but we managed to struggle-through them. It was in this year that we had our wonderful sophomore party sponsored by Misses Haviar and Dowd. We selected Andy Bolton as president, Helen Arvanetes as vice-president, Bob Burkhart as secretary, and Herbie Schmuck as treasurer. As upper-classmen in our mighty junior year, we sponsored the Junior-Senior Hop. This, along with the beautifully decorated prom, left a feeling of well-done.” As we mourned the loss of a half hour's sleep each morning, we were confronted with an hour in each of six periods in our day. This year our class leaders were Helen Arvanetes, president; Jerry Cohen, vice-president; Ethel Hrivnak, secretary; and Archie Nicholas, treasurer. Before we knew it, we were the upper” upperclassmen—the proud seniors. Bill Painter and Richard Federici headed the class as president and vice-president respectively, William Stoner held the post of secretary and Helen Arvanetes, treasurer. High spots of the year were the senior party, the prom, and Senior Day, which supplied plenty of fun for all Our years in Dover High seemed like days, and we were, now preparing ourselves for the great adventure awaiting us. This is the first time since we entered high school that the world is at peace. We have watched many fellow-students leave to fill the ranks of our country's service, and now- we are watching them return to finish their education. Our hopes are high for the duration of the peace, and we realize the great responsibility placed upon us to assure this peace. We shall always have fond recollections of the teachers who have so patiently guided us through our years in Dover High School. We firmly hope that we can be a credit to them in our future lives. But for now, au revoir and auf Wiedersehen from the Class of '46.
