Class Mistory Thirteen bewildered Freshmen entered Geraldine High School on September 13, 1948. Choosing Miss Crawford class sponsor, Blue and Gold class colors, Yellow Rose class flower, Those Who Work Shall Succeed class motto, Ronald Scribner class president, James Chemelik class vice president, Mitzie Tanner class secretary, Rita Tonne class treasurer, and John Peters and Rita Tonne class reporters provided the usual flying start for Freshies. This take-off includ- ed the Freshmen Initiation. Being required to wear old female clothing and being painted from head to toe were all part of it. Shoe polish and lipstick were the favored articles to be used as paint. More torture followed at the Initiation Party held that night. Roller skating provided the entertainment at the Freshmen Return Party held on February 23. On September 7, 1949 we elected the following officers for the Sophomore year: Donald Hicks, President; Douglas Fairbanks, Vice President; Vic Manley, Secretary; Mitzie Tanner, Treasurer; Ronald Scribner and Bill Bell, Reporters, and Bill Bell, Representative. Our sponsor, Mr. Nelson was appointed by the faculty. We slaughtered the Freshmen on September 21, and dressed them as comic characters. The return party was given to us on December 14. As Juniors, on September 11, 1950, we elected: Kirk Seekins, a newcomer, to the office of Presidency; Mitzie Tanner to the office of Vice President; Rita Tonne to the office of Secre- tary-Treasurer; AI Audet, another newcomer, and Donald Hicks as Reporters. Bill Bell became Student Council Representative and Mrs. Minium was chosen class sponsor. She did wonders in leading us through the Junior Play, Bolts and Nuts' on December 4, and the Junior Prom on April 14, 1951. The Junior-Senior Banquet was our final undertaking but our Mothers did all of the work. On September 10, 1951, with Mr. Balogh elected class sponsor, we began the big year, our last one, and elected Donald Hicks, President; Mitzie Tanner, Vice President; Ronald Scribner, Secretary-Treasurer; AI Audet, Representative; Bill Bell and Rita Tonne, Reporters.
