Senior C]a3s Hi3tcry Cn September 5, 1939, sixty-five frightened students slowly ascended the steps which led in to what we thought an ondimous building. In the seventh grade Miss Ciienoweth and Miss Newcome were our sponsors. Betty Christian was selected as the best actress in our class for tho roll in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs' . She was given a trip to Pittsburgh for her achievement. In the eight grade we won the inter-school tournament for Junior High. The sponsors were Miss Rogers and Miss Williams. This year we were freshman. Our odds were all against us. We lost in the tournament to the eight- grade. All our parties were uncessful, becouse it always rained, our sponsors were Miss Waters and Mr. Cather. We were now ready to become sophomores. We - were runners-up for the senior high championship in the basketball tournament. We were honored by having a fine group of students from Simpson High School to join us. This year our school term was cut short. We ;were now in the war and one of our boys, Jack Taylor Joined the Navy. Our Junior year proved to be a very interesting one. We gave the usual prom and banquet for the Seniors. Barbara Stewart was selected to sing at the Salem College Festival. This year our boys won the inter-School Championship banner, in the tournament. To our walls we added a service flag with two fetars to represent two boys who were now m service, James Trimble went to the Navy and Grey ‘ Riffle to the Army. Last and not least our final senior year came rolling around. Several ttudents did not return so by this time our class had decreased to twenty- seven students. To the collection on our wall we added the Championship Banner for Senior High Girls in the school basketball tournament. Betty Christian was selected as princess to represent our class at the Collage Festival in Salem. Barbara Stewart was one of the featured solists. ’.ones From our class this year one of our boys, holand Buddy” Purkey, left for the army to serve along with many other boys from Flemlngton High. For our annual senior play we gave an Operetta, 'Hearts and Blossoms, which proved tQ be very successful. To be long remembered by the seniors will be the Junior-Senior Dinner Dance, given by the junior class. Within a few more days werleave Flemlngton High School with deep regret.

We Seniors, Wizards of ' U5 started our last year off as best we knew how. At the beginning of our year we were very busy, picking out rings and b breaking cameras. In other words, getting our pic- ? tures taken. We were very eager to get started with our part- ies and had one at the earliest possible date. As always, something which has happened since we were seventh graders, we had bad weather. We didn’t pay much attention to the weather, though, as we were getting use- to it. Everyone enjoyed themselves veiy much, especially, when the refreshments were served. As our year began to get in full swin£ one of our classmated, Essie Longwell, was married. The class gave her a very nece present and wishes her lots of luck in ths future. Our year was rolling along very nicely until Uncle Sam interrupted. One of our classmates, Bud” Purkey, had to leave us to go into the Army. We held a farewell party tffir Buddy and tried to enjoy our- selves, but we couldn’t help thinking of Buddy le leaving us before long. As the year sped along another of our class- mates, Nodine Bailey, was married. The class gave her a present, too and, slso wishes her much luck ! in the years to c orae. It seemed like months, although it was only [weeks, had passed since our last party and we were very excited to hear mention of another one. Our excitement soon fade away, though, as we were in- formed chat it was another farewell party. Another [of our classmates, Alpha Short, was leaving us to became one of Uncle Sam's boys. Of course, we had bad whether but tried to make our evening enjoyable. A few days 1 ter, Alpha returned and we were told that he didn’t pass for the Navy. We were very glad to have Alpha bock but he seemed very dissappointed. Our last year o. school seemed to be Just whiz- 'zing by, and the time soon came to begin on our .senior play. We thought we would like to ba differ - ent and put on an operatta. Hearts and Blossoms w-s the name of the operetta. Ig proved to be a great success and many of us thought we ought to make acting as our career. Before long, you will see many of your old classmates nsmes in the lights of Hollywood. Social Column continued. As the end W8S coming closer, we thought we must have just one more party. At first, the class decided on a Wwinner roast, but due to the mest shortage, we couldn't get the Winner's and had to have an inside party. One of our old classmates, back from overseas, Grey Riffle, attended the party. A vary unusual thing happened that night, the weath- er was very good maybe it was because the party had been postponed and we fooled the weather man. The greatest event of the year wee coming around the corner. The Junior-Senior Banquet and Prom given in our honor by the Juniors of '45. The theme was rainbows. We wish to thank the Ju. ors for a very enjoyable evening, never to be forgotten by any of us. As wa are leaving we wish to thank Mr. Hall for being so patient with us when we thought we could run things and tried it. We must now take our axit from the social col- umn. We hope the future Seniors may have as many pleasant memories to recall in the future as we will have, while we are each taking our separate places in life. By Bvtty Je� u Brut... CAN YOU IMAGINE?

Getting on the train In New York Grand Cen- tral Station, we find Betty Christian and Betty Riley determined to find their old schoolmates, '-they Lave been working for the Powers Model Agency and are still happily unmarried. Being held over in Chicago we ran into Lance Williams who has been running the Hotel Chioago'r for tnree years. He informs us that Rlchard Selvey is running a Jew Shop Just around the corner and couldn't get along without the help of his wife, Anita Davis.

Being tired of rid ng trains and buses, we wore fortunate enough to catch one of the B-29's which are now being used as passenger coaches, and the woman pilot was opr own little Lxnda Reese.

Many interesting things have happened to us since 1941. As eighth graders both boys and girls won trophies for the best basketball teams in junior high school. In the freshman year we were next to the best cheering section, but in the sophomore year we won best-cheering honors. We were the first to give our chapel program this year. Our play was The Youngest Witch. We have had two parties—both were knock-out affairs. Our class has led consistently in all drives sponsored by the school--U. S. 0., Red Cross, etc. We, as sophomores, are looking forward to next year when we will sponsor the Junior-Senior Banquet, and will be one year nearer our goal-graduation.
