Dear Diary, When we first entered the seventh grade, most of us were awed by the confusing halls, the many classrooms and the older students. We felt important though, because we, at last, were students of Franklin High. It didn't take us long to get acquainted and I remember how proud we were of Nancy Wiegel and Barbie Cealy when they appeared in the Musical Broadcast. The next year many of our classmates entered the band and orchestra. As freshmen six of our class were chosen cheerleaders, P. Butters, D. Boughner, M. McGrew, B. Gealy, A. Monarch and N. Wiegel. It seemed to us that every' thing was going faster. In our sophomore year we elected oilicers for the first time, and with Mr. Newell as adviser, we enjoyed a sucf cessful year and built up our finances by selling basketball schedule pencils everywhere, and candy at the plays. Qs A committee was chosen to select class rings. We brought our year to a close with the spring dance called A Dreamer's Holiday . , Time flies right along and here we are Juniors! The first thing we did W2 T was organize committees to sell hot dogs and refreshments at the football games. The kids really hustled and bustled seeing that everyone got hot coifee and candy bars too. The following juniors helped to sellg K. Dale, A. Monarch and A. Colella, chairmen, R. Metz, H. Grove, S. McFetf ridge, C. Hawkins, M. Morrison, P. Heller, J. Findlay, O. Morrison, M. Stefanakos, D. Green, D. Sterns, A. Brown, S. Brown, D. Ahearn, P. McFarlane, M. Skelton, B. Wolfe, S. Cubbison, A. Brookhauser, C. Foreman, E. Warner, R. Farren, A. Timmis, F. Greggs, B. Gildenston, B. Ritz. These sales brought us profit and helped us pay expenses. Then we elected our ofhcers, whose pictures are shown above. Our class rings arrived. Maybe we're prejudiced, but we think they're the neatest ever. There were several class meetings during the year. At these meetings we learned new committees on which we were to serve, and heard reports about the progress of class work. Mr. Newell, Adviser
