The first few days were not pleasant ones for us; v e did not knew where to go, which teacher was which, nor did we know many of the students. But we soon became familiar with our nwe surroundings and were really enjoying ourselves. We had two parties during the year,,a chapel program, and many interes ting activities- among those, basketball. Although we. lost both the girl's and the boy's games, we hid a wonderful time during the tournaments. The days and months passed rapidly and soon it was May, semester tests came along, and then school was out. We de- parted, thinking what a very nice school year we had had, . and wishing it was September again so that we could start our second year. The summer months passed and we returned to attend our second year at Flemington High. All of the original seventy ty did not return this time, but some new students came . t from Sompson. This year our sponsors were Mrs. Piccolo and Mrs. Johnson. We had several parties during the year and the boys and girl’s each had a chapel program which our sponsors helped to proparo. The boy’s and Girl’s teams won the basketball games of the Juniors High School. The school year was soon over and we left feeling that by now what had become of Ffenington High School. The autumn of 19bS found U3 ah even smaller number re sack to begin our first year of high school. Our sponsors were Mus. Johson and Mr. Whitescarver. During these year we had many interesting and happy events, A chapel program was given by each the boys and girls. Both the girls and boys teams won the interested intereschoo-1 Championship banners and we were very proud and happy. The days swiftly passed and all at once our first year in high school had also passed. We now returned as Sophomores to have Mrs. Talbott and Kr,: J. Finley as our sponsers. A chapel program was given by the girls and boys together. The boys won the Interschool Championship in basketoall again this year,but the girls lost. Our cheerleaders were Nellie Powell and Josephine Radick won first prize as cheerleaders. Due to the death of her mot.ier Pearl Savage one of our i students left us and went to another state to attend sc- U y J ’A1 U. VM m In September, 19i|.7, we returned as Juniors. Continued Senior Class History Our sponsors were Miss Logue and Mr. V ilson. .e had one chapel program and one party. The boys won the basketball games and the girls lost to the Seniors. Toward the end of scho 1 we sure were very business preparing for a dinner and dance that we gave for the So niors. The days were rapidly passing and soon senool was out. We now returned as Seniors our sponsors this years was Mr. Whitescarner. During this year the basketball boys won and the girls lost. This year, wo were very busy trying to raise enough money to pay our way to Washington. It was 'decided up- on that we give a social which w'o did and were successful in raising the amount needed. The trip to Washington was enjoyed by all that went. We had attended a banquet given us by the Juniors. We injoyed it very much and thank the Juniors for the wonderful time they shown us. For our skip day we went to Stewarts Park where we all had a wonderful time. SENIOR CLASS ROLL Cirls 1. Mary Gallo 2. Betty Gozik 3. Calla Dell McDonald )q. Vera Hyvl 0. Mary Lipscomb 6.

While driving along we decided to turn on our radio to see the Kentucky Derby on televisonand to our sur- orise,we saw Ed Haney talkin'1, to his horse, Beetlebom. we'e betting on you,nrofesson. We are in N. Y. and for further entertainment, we went to a ni ht club,the Red Devil We were looking over the program and about Cell out of our seats when we read it. Staring our new Burlesqur dancer,Jean Rita Wymer Jean's ambition has been fulfilled. We shin ed our convertable on an express train to Baltimore,then took a ferry from N.Y. Harbor to Baltimore. Pelecia Watson was on the oier. She told us she was a graduate nurse at Johns Hopkins Hospital. She invited us to go to a wrestling match with her. She told us we would be amused to see the way Vera H rvl tossed the other wrestlers around. Vera had not been so success- ful at first, but she seems to be doing okay now. Wow! 1 what muscles!2 We were vetting tired, but we decided to drive on to Washington, where we s ent the night at Hotel Com- modore. Guess whom we saw! It was none other that Jun- ior Kittle. He told us he had been a very successful chambermaid and is now boss of the other lady eraoloyees. We asked him ’where we could go for entertainment. He laughtd and tols us that William Parks was on stage in oerson. After the show we went backstags. William told us Clark Gable had retired and he was taking his place. Wow! What an actor! On our way back to the hotel we saw a wreck. It was Eloise Richardson. Don't vet the wrong idea. She had just collided with the Greyhound bus. That ooor jeen The remainder wasn't enough to make a tricycle. I3that driving safely, Elrlse? We stayed in Washington until Sunday to go to cnurch. To our surorise, the oreacher was Hubert Boyles. His ser- mon wasvery interesting. Everything was quiet and ai, at once Pete yelled out,”That«s fraudry! He must have yjK.h'-a.hiA ■ ■. ’ .y wmvAiauv m w 'irmwivi'rr'.

It was a long hard drive, so we i- turned on the radio, to hear the orize fight. It was very amusing to hear that Lovant Hayes was in tne ring with Joe Louis. Take it easy, Hayes! Just because Louis is getting old, doesn’s mean he has lost his punch. As we drove through Elkins, we decided to stay at a rooming house, and to our surorise, our names were right beside Philip Lough’s. We went uo to his room and heard someone talking in a rough voice) then a scuffling sound. Was Philin being attacked? We rushed into the room and were amused to see Philin alone in the room, taking his first Charles Atlas course. We got uo early the next morning and went to a news stand. Francis Riffle was the paper boy. He said he wasn’t a successful writer, so he was selling the bunk someone else had written. We know how you feel, Frances. Keep trying. We were entering Philiuri, when we saw one of Daft’s coal trucks narked at a filling station. We wondered why his truck was in Philiori. Looking closer, we saw that the driver was Madalene Me Cauley. She told us she didn’t know how she got in Philinpi; that she must have taken the wrong road. She also told us that Russell Shaffer and Anna Mae Irvin were married;so we went to visit them. Russell wasn’t home,so we made our visit short and continued our journey. In Grafton, we went in a saloon marded Sam’s Place. Who was bar tender than Sam OlivioJ After leaving Sam’s Place, we saw Charles Popovich. He seemed to be in an awful herry. He said, Time’s awastinj We had to look twice to make shure it wasn't Snuffy Smith, Tom Marks drove un and told us that Charles was a full pledged member of the Wolf's Club. We asked him what he was do- ing. He liiked uo at us and sadly laid, I’m still driv- ing for Reopert’s . Then he cheered uo and said, Some day I’ll have a chauffeur. Don’t get your hopes too high, Tom, We s w Nellie Powell going into the A and P, She told us Bill and she have been happily married for some time now, and that they have two children. AliVi x 'iT iV. Senior Class Prophosy continued ' e finally arrived in Flomington, where wo saw Mary Lips- comb entering the post office. She showed us her ring, and told us that Jimmy hadn't set adate for the big event,so she is still waiting. We sav Charles Stewart. He told us he was still a yard bird, but is still working toward promotion. He said he was • going into the barber shoo and get a G. I. Don't give up now, Chick. Who is that cute sailor going into Monroe's ChJ It la sailor. It's Arden Lynch up to his old tricks again. |told us he was still trying. Don't give uo Arden. isn't He We entered the City Restaurant. Betty Gozik is the new owner. She had a hard time getting someone to work for her. She told us that her dish washer was Marianna Workman. Mari- anna's last name was Hayes now. While we were eating. Calla Dell Me Donald and Raymond came in. She told us her marriage was a succiss. Judging from the lumo on Raymond's head, she wasn't kidding. Calia Dell just doesn't know her ownp strength. Our next stop was Rosenont. There seemed to be much ex- loitement. Pushing our way through the crowd, we saw a very musing sight. There cat Andy Gallo with a cigar in his mouth He was pale as death. You'll learn, Andy. Herbert Crouse was the new owner of the Hot Dog Stand in jRosemont. He had hired Betty Cox as Chief Cook andBottle .7 as her. In front of Jack Shreve's house, we saw several little boyfcj crying. Patty was standing on the porch with a worried look op[ [her face. She said, I just can't get Jack to stop taking the neighbor's children's marbles. We decided to drive to Ohio to see Velva Short. She was still wearing Troy's.ring. She told us she still hasn't made up her mind. Velva told ns Arther Godfrey- was there on a tour,[7 so we went with her to see him. Mary Gallo was the first contestant. She told him she was singing on Jake Taylor's radio program. Keep it up, Mary. You'll be a second Margaret}! Whiting some day. While driving back home, I was talking to Mary but she didn't answer. When wearrived in the next town ( two hours later) she said, What? We drove to her beauty salon and she] seemed almost glad to be back. I invited her to the night club, where I was doing a balle that night. She rejected my offer,saying, Don't you thind I mm uvmuvumu'.pTT .. • v :v’ .r I ' • • •• ; ■' •.

S. i4 now in session for the purpose of hearing and reviewing the records of the class of 1950. Whereas the class of ’50 began its career in F, H. S. in the fall of 1944, with the brightest prospects of any class ever to enter here. Whereas we were all a group of rookies and were thoroughly inexperienced in the ways of F. H. S, We soon found out that we were not as brillant as we thought; however, we finished the year with the usual number of parties, victories, and defeats. ' Whereas our counselors for the year were Mrs. Roof and Miss Long, and they having seen that we were properly oriented, permitted us to go forward to our second year in F. H. S. Whereas during our second year, our number was fewer than in the previous year. Our deeds were greater. This year the girls were successful in their competition of the tournament. Whereas our counselors, Mr. John Findley and Miss Chenoweth, for the year, having seen that we have more than successfully concluded our second year in F H S. decided to rid themselves of us and thus we trudged our way to the ninth grade. Whereas during our Freshman year, our number was still fewer and our achievements still greater, that is, the girls won the trcphy and both our parties were successes. Our counselors, Mrs. Johnson and Mr. Hall, deemed it necessary that we should be passed on to the tenth grade. Whereas our Sophomore year was not entirely as suc- cessful as it was in the previous years; however, we did win the cheerleading and cheering section awards. Whereas it was during this year, our first venture into the financial world, was started and the class ended with figures In the black instead of the red. We were granted permission by our counselors, IITs,. Talbot and Mr. John Findley, to enter the eleventh grade. Junior Clsss History, continued.

In everything else we have succeeded auite well and had a lot of fun. In October our two assembly programs introduced into F. H. S. much musical ana dramatic talent. The student body will never forget that dance lesson Sonny Davis gave them,. It was so good that anyone in school can now do the elevator dance if he has been dipped in starch. As our class was large it was divided into two sections with Miss Shaw and Mr, K, Findley as our sponsors. Both sections chose class officers to carry on our business. By November basket-ball season began and we practiced, practiced and practiced some more until several of us became quite good. Joe Radick and Margaret Brown really showed their stuff at tournament tine and would have been stolen from us if it could have been oossible. Joe, Margaret, Shirley Wilfong, Jacqueline Sandy, Joan Roy, and George Carder and the two Seventh Grade defeated teams won prizes. The «layers on the girls team were Margaret Brown, Jo Ann Thompson, Betty Lou Lantz, Joan Roy, Shirley Wilfong, Mable Seese, Georgia Ellen Blake‘, and Jacqueline Sandy. For the tournament we chose Margaret Gozik, Audrey Seese, and Jo Ann Stewart as our Cheer Leaders. The girls on our team were extra good but lost | to the Eighth Grade Girls after being tied many times. They were defeated by only one ooint in an overtime play. The boys played the following evening but were no more lucky than the girls. The boys on our team were Joe Radick, Robert Riffle, Jack Dillon, George Carter, Billy McDonald, Ronald Griffith, and Gene Guzzi. 1 7 7i,y m M w my «.y m w?m w (2) Seventh Grado Class History, continued Now that tho year is growing to a close there io a little poem our class poet, Imogcne Sines, has written. There are sixty students in the Seventh Grade Wo had a party t’was like a raid; They turned off lights, and had few fights. But when it ended, we wore all right. We have enough lessons to keep us busy If you ask me it makes us dizzy. We have reading, writing, and arithmetic And it’s not taught to the tune of a hickory stick. We're not kidding this is true But don't bo worried we'll pull through. Our teachers, we'll have to say, are very nice We don't see how they teach us brats for such a little price They act so calm when we do wrong I don't see how they teach so long. I. S.
