were Hktd j In the fall of ’36, we began our quest for education. In ’44 we ready to enter good old F. T. H. S. Forty-four green freshmen went through the tortures of that first year. For our class officers we elected Margaret Marshall, president; Joe Yeagle, vice-president; and Barbara Weeks, secretary-treasurer. We selected Shirley Moser to lead our cheers; she has held this position all four years. Members of our class were in every activity and also the field of sports. Our second year found Jim Wharton at the helm. Barbara Weeks, vice-president; Mary Ann Rathbun, secretary; and Keith Stiver, treas- urer, assisted him. This year again found us active in other activities, including the F Club. As juniors we elected Joe Yeagle, president; Shirley Moser, vice- president; and Barbara Weeks, secretary-treasurer. During this year we added several more to the F Club. Before a sell-out crowd we demon- strated our dramatic ability with the production of “January Thaw” under the direction of Miss Marjorie Kemple. We brought “The Circus” to town at our Junior-Senior Banquet. Now to take up the roles of dig- nified seniors! As the senior class of '48 we were twenty-eight in number, and what we lacked in quantity we made up in quality. Margaret Marshall was president of the Student Council. By popular vote, Marcella Kiper was elected Homecoming Queen. Barbara Weeks, Mary Ann Rathbun, Lois Bess, and Shirley Moser served as attendants. We produced jur Crier under the leadership of Mary Ann Rathbun as editor-in-chief, and Mrs. Robert Ficklin as adviser. It is now our turn to leave the halls of F. T. H. S. and go out into the world to make our fortunes. We hope that the classes which follow us will cherish it as we have. 20
