W, fY vga! GQSS jlglsfory In September of 1946 we entered first grade. Our teacher was Mrs. James. There were 29 students. Karen Almburg, Gene Bowler, Donna Carr, Gwen Clark, Donna Griffin, Frances Johnson, Shirley McDonald, Joanne Rathburn, Norma Beck, Daxmy Barfay, Leroy Bailey, Leslie Beach, Dinnis Brownlee, Teddy Carlton, Merlin Clute, Robert Ferry, Raymond Graham, David Kennedy, Paul Luoma, Johnny Martin, Larry Peters, Bud Seaborn, Larry Suverison, Wallace Hortman, and Harry Keller. We do not remember too much about first grade, but we could never forget the time Mrs. James tied Shirley in her seat because she would not stay in one place. We entered the second grade and on checking our roll call we found that Paul Luoma had decided to stay in the first grade, but as we had one new student our num- ber was the same. Dave Johnson from Niles was our new member. Karen, how did you like Mrs. McRoberts lap? When we entered the third grade we found our class had been divided into two groups. Our teachers were Mrs. McRoberts and Mrs. McBride. We had four new stu- dents, Lillian Cowger, Herman Cowger, Sherrell O'Rourke, and Dick Carr. How about that, Dick? In the fourth grade Alma Callahan, Judith Lazier, Louis Crain, and Howard Mun- ger joined our group. Our teacher was Mr. Procop. He was our first man teacher and WOW! what a teacher! Howard Munger was the only one who left us in the fifth grade. Our class was divided again that year. The teachers were Mr. Allshouse and Mrs. Rosner. In the sixth grade we had four new students: Bob Winans, Lawrence Winans, Paul Clingerman, and Jane Foust. This was the year the boys started noticing the girls are different. As we entered the seventh grade, we were really pleased with ourselves because we thought we were hot stuff and almost grown up. So we began the tedious task of saving money for our trip to Washington. Our first money making project was the magazine sales contest which we won. Our sponsor this year was Miss Kerola. We lost one member, Louis Crain, because of an accidental death. Eddie Smith moved to Vienna this year. Our only new student was Pete Evinsky. No one could stand to leave us in the eighth grade. We lost the magazine sales contest this year. Our sponsor was Mr. Wise. Pete Evinsky departed at the end of the year. We are now in high school. This was the year we were all waiting for. Our home room was study hall. This was the year that the one and only Roger Jones of Sharon entered our class. Our sponsor was Mr. Wise.

Cfzss jflsfory fcjonlj In the tenth grade Florence Neal joined us, and Bob Winans and Alma Callahan left. I guess Bob decided that army life was safer. Hey class, how about that hay ride we had when two boys attacked a girl with a pumpkin? Our sponsor was Mr. Jones. In our eleventh year of school, Romance was the main subject. We had a number of projects this year which set our bank account booming. In the spring we gave the Seniors a prom. Our class play was entitled, 'The Whiz Kids. We had two new students Claudia Swindler and Jim Trimble. Mrs. Roush was our sponsor. We entered our Senior year in 1957. We find that Gwen Clark and Ruth Uber have left us with a ring on their left hand finger. This year our sponsor is Mr. Neal, our teachers are Mrs. Carnes, Mrs, Roush, Mrs. Wright, Mrs. Kushan, Mr. Jones, Mr. Neal Mr, Beck, Mr, Waters, Mr. Barbato. The Juniors gave a prom in our honor in May. Our Senior play was in May also. Shirley and Jane are planning on changing their names in the near future, We are eagerly looking forward to commencement, and the trip to Washington. Although we may be glad to be out of school, but we will never forget all the good times we have had together. gn mm orzdm On October 12, 1952, our hearts were saddened by the news ofthe death of our fellow-student and friend, Louis Crain. Louis entered our school in 1949 as a first grader. He was killed by an accident in the seventh grade. It is hard for us to realize that his place is now empty. 1940-1952
