Out of the Past NARRATOR: Senior Class ACT I TIME: Middle l930's PLACE: The thriving community of Grand Blanc. CURTAIN Mamas and papas are seen hurrying their Iimmys and lanes off to their first gay day at school. Wasn't it thrilling? Readin' an' writin' an' 'rithmetic, and us looking up to the day when we would be mighty seniors. As we came up through the years, we had our share of Halloween parties, Christmas parties, and Valentine parties. ACT II TIME: Seven years later. PLACE: Grand Blanc High School. CURTAIN Here we are, rushing madly around the halls land who doesn'tD trying to locate the rooms we have been assigned, and having Mr. Pepper inform us that we are not the almighty as yet. 'I'here were many of us who didn't realize it until that moment. ACT III TIME: Two years laer. PLACE: Grand Blanc High School. CURTAIN At last, Senior High! We big shots were brought down to a lower level by those gentle Sophomores. How well we remember the night shirts, silk stock- ings, curlers, and onion necklaces. lack Swartz, Cletus Crickmore, Virginia Liberato, and Ioel Rose- dahl took up the duties of Class officers. lack Swartz, Ioel Rosedahl, Cletus Crickmore remained as class officers. 'Wilma Schollard took over the duties of Secretary. Of course in our Sophomore year we put the Freshman through the mill. As luniors we went through the usual formalities of a I-Hop decorated as a hunting lodge and our lunior Play entitled, Keep It Under Your Hat. The Seniors entertained us with a party which we re- turned later on in the year. Class officers as fol- lows: President, Dwaine Polzinp Vice-president, Bob I-'inellyg Secretary, Barbara Wadsworthg and Treasurer, Marilyn Kline. FINALE TIME: September 3, 1947. PLACE: Grand Blanc High School. CURTAIN Ah, yes, this was our big year. Dwaine Polzin remained as ruler, lack Swartz and Ioel Rosedahl served as vice-presidents for first and second semes- ters, respectively, Ruth Schumacher held the pen, and Herbert Kunze, the money bags. 1 Our first task was taking on the job of putting out the l948 ECHO. Soon our Advertisement Committee went out to sell those all necessary ad's. In November we gave our Senior Play entitled, Strictly Formal. As the result of many evenings of practice under the exacting eyes and ears of Miss Berdan, both cast and class members had the satisfied feeling that comes with a job well done. During all home football games we donned heavy coats and muff- lers to sell red hots and other refreshments. Ianuary I3 we took leave of school and traveled to Lansing. Some fun. Senior dances helped fill in dates not already taken by other activities. Along about March 19, we were all rushing to get our ECHO work done and in to the printer. May 15 was the date of our Leap Year Senior Prom. F un was had by all, but this evening brought us Seniors closer to the fact that we soon would no longer be a part of G.B.H.S. On May 23 at 6:30 A.M. we Seniors crowded on school buses and were on our way to Detroit--the beginning of a most enjoyable boat trip. At 10:00 A.M. the boat began to move away from the dock. Our first stop was Mackinac Island on Monday, May 24, at 8:00 A.M. At l2:00 noon we started the long journey down Lake Michigan. Arrived at Chicago on Tuesday, May 25, at 9:00 A.M. While here we all had a swell time visiting the various museums and other interesting sights. Left Chicago at l2:00 midnight, and journeyed to Muskegon. Arrived there on Wednesday, May 26, at 10:00 A.M. From here we had a long, dreary trip back to Grand Blanc. All and all, this trip turned out to be one long day for the lot of usp one trip we are sure not to forget for a long, long time. Before 8:00 P.M. on Iune 6, we assembled in the south hall in caps and gowns, a more serious gang than usual, to attend the Baccalaureate service. On Iune 8 we had a big dinner prepared by our Moms and served by the Iunior girls. Following this we had a grand time throwing slams at teachers, Iun- iors, and everyone in general. As we received our diplomas on Commencement night, we realized that our high school days had come to an end. 25
