 riJVJu’ i i FRESHMEN We started to school with seven boys and seven girls. Our Initiation was in October. We enjoyed ourselves day and night, although because of the War (so they said) we couldn't eat anything during school time. The girls dressed like Lil' Abner and the boys like Daisy May. We also gave our assembly the same day. We enjoyed an ice-skating party at Delta in January. Most of our boys played basketball. A few girls joined Girl Reserves, Boosters, and Glee Club. Some of us participated in the Institute, either in the band or in the mixed chorus. Our officers are; president, Berneda Rechtine; vice president, Allyn Schmitz; secretary and treasurer, Marilyn Putman; news reporter, Florence Thomas; cabinet member, Luella Watkins; advisor, Miss Libbe. SOPHOMORE School opened September 13, 1943 with seventeen members. Before long Homer Watkins left us and Stanley Hilton joined our class. During the school year we had three parties; one a weiner roast at Mann's Corners, an ice skating party at the Delta reservoir, and a roller skating party at Mann's Corners. We enjoyed all of these very much. May seventeenth we gave our assembly for the school. Our officers are as follows: president, Ivan Xigar; vice president, Bill Gorey; secretary and treasurer, Collen Hildreth; cabinet member, Duane Lau; news reporter, Margaret Wood; advisor, Miss Burkhard.
