The second week of school the class elected the following officers: President-Dale Moline Vice Pres.-Roger Van Voast Sec. Treas .-Shirley Rucker Student Council-Chuck Tonne Sponsor-Mrs. Graf Initiation was held the second week of school. This found us wearing silly clothes and painted with shoe polish and lipstick. We now considered ourselves full fledged members of G.H.S. We gave a return party on November 16. Our biggest event was the Freshman Hodgepodge which was held in the spring and was a big success. In Mav we white-washed the G. We opened our Sophomore year on September 14, 1953, with seven mem- bers. John Martinez had transferred from Great Falls. At our first class meeting we chose class officers.
