As B book holders, the class of 46 ranks second among the classes in G. H. S. This group of students has successfully undertaken responsibil- ities and carried out the duties which are usually expected of juniors. From the beginning of school, the juniors to whom the candy case was rationed have been faithfully lug- ging it through the halls that the spare bars may be available to the sweet toothed students. When the basketball season began, the juniors again accepted their rationed inher- itance of catering to the appetites of the fans to whom the thrifty sales- people sold soft drinks, potato chips, and popcorn. To the students and to the school patrons, the juniors presented Chautauqua, a clever program which boosted the class prestige Climaxing a successful school year, the juniors honored the seniors with a festive banquet, unique in its plan- ning, from decorations to program and social enjoyment. Whether it were scholastic activi- ties, extra-curricular projects, or com- munity drives, the members of the Class of ' 46 showed their willing- ness to learn, to work, and to co-oper- ate. The seniors are indeed pleased to have the members of the junior class as their worthy successors. We feel that they deserve C books now instead of B books. Carrying on the business affairs for the juniors were: Harold Ross, president; Grayson Tuck, vice pres- ident; MaryRuth Van Fleit, secretary- treasurer. 18

BOOK HOLDERS As we, the Seniors of 1945, leaf through our various ration books, we recall the joys and pleasures, the headaches and heart- aches, the failures and successes that have been ours while we have tried to master the numerous tasks which have confronted us. Each used stamp holds a definite memory of some school experience. When we were ' Too Young to Drive our thoughts were directed toward the time when we should take our place as the class of 1945. When we set out on our high school journey our tank of energy registered full, and we were willing to tackle all obstacles and barriers which might occur on our trip to success. Goals were set, standards were established, and successes were anticipated. As A book holders, we won distinct ion as the first sophomore class of G. H. S. to have funds in our treasury. This resulted from our patriotic efforts to help in the national scrap drive. To celebrate the success of this drive, the class sponsored a Victory Dance which helped to cement school loyalties, and class and social relationships. Our Junior Variety Show of 1944 was unique in idea, and the first show of its type ever presented by a G. H. S. class. Con- sisting of an operetta, a one act play, and a minstrel, the Varieties was an entertainment which set a precedent for future junior clsses. Highlighting the year of advancement and training was the Junior-Senior banquet, which was built around a nautical theme, and which featured the music of Jack Rollins and his band. C books were ours when we become seniors, and we have tried to make the most of the opportunities to which these books have entitled us. Scholastic honors, athletic recognitions, and leaderships in various activities were roles achieved by the different individuals of the class. Editing Points of 1945 is an outstanding accomplishment of our class. Each member faithfully and diligently gave his time, talent, and knowledge toward trying to make the yearbook a true panorama of the classes, activities, and athletics. We are proud of our yearbook and set it as an example for future senior classes of Garrett High School. As we conclude our high school experience, we definitely realize that we are facing graver and sterner responsibilities. We appreciate the sympathetic understanding, the patient con- sideration, and the constant efforts of our school officials and teachers to make us more able and more worthy to combat life ' s problems and to attain our next goal. 17

In these days of gasoline rationing, A books are issued by ration boards to every one who has an automobile and who is license to drive. As A book holders, the Soph- omores are comparative beginners in high school life, but after han- dling school activities and classes for three years, the members of the class will be entitled to C books and the responsibilities and happi- nesses that go with them. Installation of officers afforded a time for the three sophomore home room groups to meet jointly. The pro- gram for the occasion was based up- on a patriotic theme and gave mem- bers of the class a chance to show their talents. Sophomore home rooms ranked first, second, and third in the total amount of money turned in dur- ing the Junior Red Cross drive held throughout the school. This is a fine showing from the underclassmen and worthy of recognition. Freshmen were treated to a skat- ing party given by the sopohomores at the Silver Moon. A good time was afforded for all and co-operative re- lationships between the classes were firmly fixed. To share the Yuletide spirit during the Christmas season, the sophomore English classes pre- sented, before the student body, a delightful Christmas program. Officers of the class are: Richard Drews, president; Gerald Johnson, vice president; Mary Lou Smith, secretary; and Audrey Lazenby, treasurer. 19
