9 CLASS HISTORY TIIE CLASS of ’45 started as a small group in kindergarten in the year 1932. The Class comprised Phyllis Gillespie, Inez Francisco, Betty Lattimer, Genevieve Krzczuk, Mary Gray Swezey, Harold White, Charles Schubert, Francis Ford, Daniel McEntire, Ruth Clayton, Leon McBride, Betty Howard, Gerald Swanwick and Jimmy Aitchison. After convincing Miss Anderson that she wouldn’t be able to stand us another year, we passed on to First Grade, where Anna Richner joined our ranks. We played our way through First and Second Grades, gaining Joseph Nelson and Marilyn Adams. Foundations for future dishonesty and mischievousness were laid on the jolly Third Grade class room of Miss Duhr. In Fourth Grade, Marilyn Suresky skipped into our Class from the Class of ’46, and began her romancing. It was then Danny McEntire. Sophie Orzechowski came from Maple Avenue School to join the Class. In Firth Grade we entered Main Street School under Miss Downey’s direction. The School was centralized. Aubrey Christie came all the way from Michigan, via Halcyon, to have the honor of being a member of our Class. It was Aubrey’s idea to use ditto marks instead of letters when writing, I will not talk . No additions were made to the Class in Sixth Grade, but we lost one member to Garr Hall--Genevieve Krzczuk. We all continued to be one big, happy Class under the supervision of Miss Wagner, who very thoughtfully removed thumb tacks from our seats. Our large Class'was broken down in December, when eighteen members left to form another SixthGrade in Masonic Temple with a new teacher, Miss Brenwasser. In the Seventh Grade we suddenly felt the thrill of growing up by the opportunity of changing class as in High School. Our Class increased in size; the new students were: Marion Cortright, Theresa Konrad, Eugene Creeden, Bill Bates, Peter Ptak, Julia Ptak, Dan Pellarin, Anna Murabito, Irene Mally, Lois Soons, Audrey Weeden, along with Genevieve Krzczuk and Alice Currao. Mr. Pardy was our principal in- structor, having him for Science, Social Studies, English and Spelling. Finally, after getting all our contracts in for Mr. Britton in Geography, we moved into the Eighth Grade. Here in the new and beautiful institution of learning on Lincoln Avenue we added: Edna Lane, Grace Brink, that bombshell from Brooklyn, Clara Cipriani; Selena Brisky and Cecilia Kolman. Cn the trip of the Eighth Grade, as glorified lads and lassies, we got kinks in our necks, looking at skyscrapers and the stars at the Planetarium. Coming from the country, Marion Cortright, Alice Currao, Anna Richner and Betty Howard all enjoyed the thrill of riding the elevators more than gazing at the mummies of the Museum of Natural History or their sarcophagi. On the first day of our Freshman year we we re cordially welcomed by our new Sc ience teacher, Mr. Sprague, who gave us an hour’s lecture on what toexpect during the term. Bill Duggan came to our Class from Garr Hall to try to teach us some of his scientific knowledge. With Nellie Werner joining our Sophomore Class, she decided it was more fun to steal other girls’ boy friends than it was trying to find one for herself. Joan Carroll found this out, much to her surprise, when she entered the Class. Harry Powna11, being a bit of the Gene Krupa with his drumming ability, and Chick Young, with his cartoon skill, also joined our Sophomore Class, along with George Murch and Grace Keller. Noadditions were made in our Junior year. So at length, after all our struggles, we entered our last and glorious year. We became brilliant students with plans for a perfect future, thanks to the guidance of Mr. McKee and Mr. Campaigne. We were joined in our Senior year by Enid Bailey and Bettie McGowan. Joan McEntire, who was a member of the Class of ’ 46, decided she would join theClass of ’ 45, which was making less money, but having more fun. So on this lovely June day, we leave our wonderful memories of G.H.S. and enter the untrodden paths of our future world.
