Satisfied Seniors 1942 was a year to remember, especially for 59 boys and girls who were eagerly starting their freshman year at S.T.H.S. Their first election of the class officers produced Lloyd Raber, President; Barbara Cryer, Vice-Fresident; Joan Roth, Secretary-Treasurer; and Ruth Stotler, Student Council. Miss Salmon was chosen as our advisor. There was exceptional talent in our class that year, not only in athletics but also in music and dramatic readings. Most of the freshmen came back to struggle Uirough their sophomore year. After counting heads on September 1, we had a total of 56. The officers were: Byron Donze, President; Fredonna Bishop, Vice- Fresient; and Delora North, Secretary - Treasurer . Ruth Stotler was a holdover for Student-Council Member. kiss Salmon was re-chosen as sponsor. The sophomore class was very active in buying war stamps every week. There were two parties, a hay ride and a sledding party. And then we were juniors, upperclassmen at last! Now only the seniors could look down on us. That was our big year of work but a lot of fun. 7 e worked hard earning money for Prom by sponsoring the refreshments at the games, selling punch at the Homecoming Dance and producing Moonlight for Herbert , the successful junior play. We re-elected Byron Donze, President; Delora North was chosen Vice-President; Joan Roth, Secretary-Treasurer; Bill Nohren and Fredonna Bishop, Student Council Members. Again Miss Salmon did a fine job of sponsoring our class. To bring to an end four grand and glorious years, 37 seniors stuck it out to the very end. To lead us successfully, the following officers were chosen: Delora North, President; Barbara Cryer, Vice-President; Joan Roth, Secretary-Treasurer; Marjorie McDonell and Bill Nohren, Student Council Members. Three cheers should go to our sponsor, Mrs. Harris (Miss Salmon) for her splendid leadership throughout the entire four years, and to our newcomer Mr. Secord for his assistance on the Cometeer. Our activities this year were: A dance in James Parkhouse s new barn and the publishing of the Reporter , which with two paper staffs came out every two weeks. Delora North and Marjorie McDonell as editors of the two papers, really made the news fly. The publishing of the year book, the Cometeer kept Ethel Major, Sditor-in-Chief, Byron Donze, Assistant Editor, and their staff quite busy. Another great accomplishment was the play Strictly Formal , directed by Mrs. Douglas, (Miss Tendick). As we reach the end of our stay here, we undertake the greatest accomplishment of all as we march down the aisle to receive our well earned diplomas. With sadness in our hearts, we leave dear old E.T.H.S., richer in experience and with high hopes for a bright and successful future for each one of us. -12-
