ix 1: EfNIUH CLASS HIHUHY Tirfrp K. .J-Wt .II This is the history of the Class of 1945. Now that our high scnool days are coming to an end, each senior hopes to remember always these past years which held happy, busy, and exciting days for each o11e of us. On September 15, 1941 eighty-four eager freslnnen scrambled up the steps of G. H. S. where we hoped to acquire many honors and friendships. Each heart was full of determination to make ours the best freshman class that ever entered our alma mater. After aequainting our- selves with one another we elected officers and participated in many activities. NNith the help of the faculty and upper classmen, we soon learned the tasks and routines that all who are preparing lor future responsibility must accept. After surviving the usual trials of the average freshmen, we looked forward to being treated better as we entered G. H. S. as sophomores. This year we became better qualified and capable of entering into the daily routine of school life. Some of our students became members of the Senior Tri-Hi-Y and Hi-Y organizations after being initiated. Forty members made up the Sophomore Glee Club under the direction of Miss Martin. At Christmas, we had a party, exchanged gifts, and were entertained by musical selections, after which refreshments were served On September 20, 1944 we entered as upper classmen, anxiously looking forward to a most exciting and eventful year. In October, it was decided to buy rings, and when they arrived sev- eral weeks later, we felt very proud and very much like f'mighty juniors. In February, we held a class meeting to select our class motto, colors, and Hower. The class song was written by Mary Ziegler to the tune of the Bombardier Song. Our thoughts were then turned toward the pre- sentation of a play. The play committee, after several weeks of debating, finally selected Booth Tarkington's The Fighting Littles. Under the able direction of Miss Ditfenderfer, the play was more than a success. Ordinarily, we would be jolly juniors, but the war sobered us into pre- paring ourselves for valuable wartime citizens. Our senior year finds us at the end of our long journey. XYe realize this is our last year in dear old G. H. S. and we plan to make it our best year. After officers were elected, we looked forward to the presentation of our play. Much discussion continued until the play committee chose The Mad March Heirs. Under the direction of Mrs. Lehman, this play proved to be a great success. One of the main highlights was our 1944 Election. VVe had regular voting booths, ballots, and an election board for each precinct. After the counting of the ballots, it was shown the school went Democratic. During all our four years both boys and girls have entered into the field of sports. Both Putters Zimmerman and Bill Bear receive recognition for their Fine contribution to the basket- ball team and to the undefeated soccer team. Several of our boys have entered the service, including our president. VVe wish to extend to these a wish for safety and success in their new life. And so, in concluding tl1is history of the class of '45, we have tried to live up to our motto: Enter to learn, go forth to servef' Our only regret is that war, not peace, rules our lives. Foremost in our minds, as we go to prepare a place for ourselves in this world, is the mak- ing of a good and lasting peace for all mankind.
