euinr 4 is arg ln the fall of the year 1945, a jolly group of freshmen filled the study hall. With the aid of their advisor, Miss .Tune Ross, they elected Frank Elliott as their president. As usual they endured the traditional initiation pranks and en- joyed the party given them by the sophomores. Their sophomore year was a very busy one. Mr. Boyd Olinger was their advisor. Dan Nease was the president. These sophomores planned several parties and get to- gethers, but the girls' slumber parties seerned to be the big thing. The boys enjoyed crashing parties whenever the opportunity was theirs. When this group became juniors, the trustworthy president was Glenna Grewe. The class was very proud uf their newly re- ceived rings. They workeddiligently selling refreshments at the ball games as a money making project. In the spring they took the seniors on a trip through the Ohio Caverns and an old castle. The rest of the day was spent at Indian Lake. The play, A Case of Springtin1e, under the direction of Mrs. Marguerite Stoltz, was a big event. Now here are the seniors with big ideas and high hopes for each one of their classmates. Don Brewer led the class as pres- ident: Ruth Warner served as vice-president: and Sue House was the pencil pusher. The faithful treasurer was Janice Mott and the re- porter, Alice Dunevant. Class funds were built up by magazine sales, and a Thanksgiving market. The class play entitled, Gabriel, Blow Your Horn, was presented May 5 and 6. The Senior Class of 1949 desires to ex- press their sincere appreciation to the fac- ulty for the interest shown them during their four years in G. H. S. and hope that their time shall not have been spent in vain. OFFICERS 17
