Ahl The big leap Seventh grade at last, only six more years We met the upper school teachers and accustomed ourselves to the various new tasks before us We then proceeded to get ourselves a reputation, which we cherish to this day that of being the noisiest class in the school This fact combined with the fact that we have a rather large class, makes a constant threat to tranquil atmosphere Clarence DeArmond left us in the seventh grade only to rejoin us in the junior year As the year drew to a close we gave the operetta, George Washington Eighth grade' Several new boys joined us l.eewood Qgden, Ernest Essig and George Muellerschoen Mr Crouch was our homeroom teacher as well as math instructor Boyl Did he tell jokes' l-low many of us remember Maynard Clark and Evan Boden s attempt to break each others tardiness record Maynard won, he couldnt get here more than five days straight without being late His pet excuse was the car wouldnt run any faster Ernest Essig was always a great attraction Since his parents were in the bakery business he often supplied cakes for everyone As we had several stamp col lectors in the class, Mr Crouch proved to be a drawing card also Spring fever, and then June, and another year drew to a close Qnly four more years to go Ninth grade was a great year for us Dick Stoll and all his germs and uncles joined our staff as did Sam Fields Paul Mory Bud Kohler and Henry f-lallowell Mr Gracey was our English teacher with Mr Crouch as homeroom teacher again Mr Gracey was the only man who ever successfully put a stopper on answer Seventy five words to be copied from the dictionary with full meanings Johnny Lawrence was a great big fellow and every time he moved his body the floor and chairs protested loudly along with all sorts of sighs and ah h hs coming from Johnny The results were inevitable and he joined the club At one time he had three hundred and seventy five words to write Unfortunately, John moved to Reading Penna , and we also lost George Muellerschoen through the death of his father We were sorry to see them go We are now second mates only three more steps to make Again we take on a load of passengers Sam Publicker, Frank Andrews, Watson Supplee, Bill Monroe, Ben Statzell and George Moose McGinley Several of our group felt sufficiently grown up to attend the Senior Prom Were we really growing up? What was to happen to us in the future? Ed Lambrect tried to answer this question by reading Ten Days on the Moon and other ten cent thrillers As fast as they appeared they were confiscated, but to no avail l-lis supply seemed inexhaustible thats the real reason that the Union News Company is still in business today This year was the start of the finish, marks were to count for college credit this year, and there was some evidences that people were going to college We are juniors' Clarence DeArmond, Ed Markel Jack Bye and Walt Kahler joined us, Clarence for the second time This business of being a junior had its worries and lots of them, but Ed Markel shouldered them immediately and because of his fine work . . . .
