glad: Htoty 1942- 1943 Remember when we were little Freshmen, and we really were glad to be considered in high school. We thought we really were somebody when we could say that we had civics instead of history. But we were knocked down a peg or two when we found those Latin tests coming up. This year the Iunior Tri-Hi-Y was organized and some of the girls became members. We were certainly kept busy with all our studies and extracurricular activities and when Iune came around we were all ready to settle down and have a pleas- ant vacation. 1943- 1944 Well, this year we were really Sophomores and finally entering Senior High School. We thought we were quite smart now because we had the privilege to choose our own courses and class officers. Our favorite topic of discussion was Frank Sinatra vs. Bing Crosby but Frankie usually won out. As sophomores we were allowed to join the Y clubs and how well we remember those terrible initiations. But in turn we were allowed to take part in their social activities. Near the end of the year our school gave a gym exhibition which everybody considered a big success. With all our final exams over, we breathed a sigh of relief and decided to forget school for the summer. 1944- 1945 Here we are, Iuniors, and can hardly believe it. Now we really are grown up ? ? Of course, we were allowed to pick our class rings and pins, and we all agreed that they were the neatest ever. As class officers, we elected for president, David Stettlerg vice-president, Richard Keller, secretary, Arlene Schuldtp and treasurer, lean Sipling. We were still swoon- ing over Frank Sinatra but we always recovered in time to take our physics tests. Van Iohnson also became popular this year and, as we walked down the halls, we saw his picture decorating many of the girls' lockers. In March we sponsored our class play, Oh, Kay, a mystery comedy, which we thought was pretty swell. As a climax to our Iunior year, we gave our prom in order to bid the Senior Class fond farewell. Our gym really looked sharp decorated like a Pacific island, with Andy Kerner furnishing the music. 1945-1946 After a summer which most of us spent working at various places, we came back to school, happy in the realization that the war was finally over and that we were Seniors at last. For after twelve long, hard years of struggling '? ? fAm I kidding?l we had finally reached our goal and we were dignified Seniors at last. We really enjoyed those night football games which were held on our new field, with the band furnishing some extra color. Football season over, we all looked forward to our Senior play, The Arrival of Kitty, which we presented early in December. Everyone agreed that it was definitely super! Our class officers remained the same with the exception of Arlene Schuldt as secretary and Edward Bailey as treasurer. The Y clubs sponsored many activities during the year, one of which was the Valentine Dance to which parents, as well as students, were invited. This was some- thing new, but it appears to have been a big success. After a busy Senior year, filled with many memorable events too numerous to mention, we were finally graduated on May 31.
