CLASS HISTORY On a clear day in September of 1944, four members of our class met for the first time at Fulton Centralized School. They were-Sharon Patty, Barbara Owens, Don Frybarger and Edith Eaton. Luanne Leminger joined us in the middle of our first year. Miss Marvel Moyer was our teacher in the first and second grades. We went on to the third grade where Mrs. Kesler was our able teach- er. Don Frybarger left us here and the rest of us went on to the fourth grade. Next we proceeded upwards twenty-two steps all the way to the top floor to enter the fifth and sixth grades where Mrs. Tate taught us for two years. At last! We are in Junior High. Here under the guidance of Mr. Shaver we elect officers for the first time and get a taste of high school life. Chang- ing classes helped to make the time pass quickly. Now we are in high school. We elected Sharon Patty as President and chose Mrs. Craig as our Freshmen Advisor. We all liked her so well that we elected her our advisor for all our remaining years in high school. Don Frybarger was welcomed back into the class at the beginning of the year. Initiation was endured and passed, parties were enjoyed and lessons were passed all in good time. Next step on the ladder finds us as Sophomores where Don Frybarger was elected President and Barbara Owens Vice-President. High school was getting busier and busier, but we made it through and passed. In our Junior year, Barbara Owens as President, with the help of Mrs. Craig, helped us to do the many tasks and joys which were encountered. We received our class rings early in the fall, started putting out the Echo'' in January, presented our play Little Acorns in April, and honored the Seniors at the Junior-Senior Banquet in May. This was a very busy year. To top it off, we went to Washington, D. C. for a week. We enjoyed the sights and learned many things. Finally we are Seniors. Mrs. Craig has seen us faithfully through high school. Don Frybarger was elected President and Barbara Owens Vice- President. We had our pictures taken and they turned out as well as could be expected. Betty Pfund was welcomed into the class from Anthony Wayne. The Echo was turned over to the Juniors in January. We worked together on the annual and saw it through to the finish. After graduation we, to- gether with the Juniors, will wave good-bye to our friends and relatives as we leave for a week in New York City. As we find ourselves near the end of school, we look back and remem- ber all the happy times and the sad times. Learning our lessons hasn t al- ways been a snap, but we tried and we succeeded. We can only look to the future and hope to use our education to the best advantage. Page 18
