H. S., we were overjoyed to find our old classmates were with'us again. Our Sponsors for this year were Mrs; Pelvcra Johnsbn and Mr. Hal Findley. T'Te were very proud when two of our classmates, Vivian N ewheuse and Charles Shreve, were winners of the Golden H drsoshoe Test and represented Taylor County at the ceremonies at Charleston. In March the Class Tcumments began. ,7e defeated the Freshmen girls 33-4 and our boys defeated the Freshmen in a long remembered game 14-13. T7e found ourselves a more serious group in 1952 because we were how in our first year of senior high school. Our sponsors were to be Mrs. Piccolo and Miss Withers. In class toumments we found that our girls were still good in basketball. They were champs of the school. It was a sadder story for the boys though, for they lost both of their games. Me reentered F. H . S. as Sophomores. ,7e found that our sponsors, Trs. Olive Talbott and Mr. John Findley, were going to try to make salesmen of us. Our first campaign was to sell stationary, e felt rather bad when we found that we made only %0.00 profit. But we proved to bo better salesmen when we made -160.00 profit on eandy and fruit‘cakes. T7e were very proud of both our boys and girls in toumments. Our girls took the championship and our boys were runners up. Our Junior year was'very'busy but'prosperous one, with the help of our wonderful sponsor, Mrs. Piccolo. Our first campaign was to sell magazine subscriptions for the Curtis Publishing Company. ,re were happy to find when the campaign came to an end we had made a'profit of 113.50. Our second campaign was the selling of Easter eggs, but we were not quite as successful as we had been in the previous sale. Tien basketball season came around we were hapoy to find that we had half interest in the concession stand which was a very profitable enterprise as we made a profit of f’159.45. Our school was represented in Know Your State G ovemment Day by Shirley Shaffer and T eddy Olivio. Besides having a very prosperious year, we also had a very entertaining year. ,,re had a’hillbilly comedy called Feudin Over Yonder which was very successful.
