MELANGE CLASS HISTORY OF 1941 By Anna Jo Kelley - Chapter I New that we have reached another milestone of life and the time has come when we will leave our Alma Mater as students, our sentiments turn back to the time when we first entered H.

Marvin Thurman, a popular boy, was chosen to act as president during our Freshman year in school. Mrs. May was our class sponsor. During the year we had sev- eral exciting trips in our biology class. Most of the Freshmen ,were found in different clubs and organiza- tions of the school. Boone LaGrange and Kenneth Tull represented our class on the basketball team, and Anne Parker was one of the yell leaders. Chapter II September, l938, found the former Freshmen enroll- ed as Sophomores. Stella Burdine joined our class at the beginning of the semester and to our sorrow we lost several of our classmates.

TMELANQZE or Chapter III A The Junior year came and we were still losing some of our students. This year we lost Marjorie Comingore, who moved to Seludag Billy Miles left us and went to Jeffersonville, Indieneg and Stella Burdine quit school. Margaret Opal Jean came from Martinsville, Indiana. The class officers were Norms Pender, presidentg Gayle Menaugh, vice presidentg Neve Dicue, treasurerg and Dorothy Ven Liew, secretary. Mrs. May wus our class sponsor. We will never forget the day when Boone LaGrange and Kenneth Tull were awarded their basketball sweaters and Gayle Mansugh and Marvin Thurman got their letters. Everyone surely admired them. Then came the class play, NLook Out, Lizzie,n filled with fun and laughter. Robert Howlett left us for about two months and went to North Mddison, Indiana, but found that he could not stay sway from Hanover so he came buck the next yeur. At lest we had the gredtest social event of the year to which everyone had looked forward: the Jun- ior-Senior Trip. This was a day that will be remenbered by everyone who went. That, which ended our fun for the year, was a big picnic at Muskntstuck Park, North Vernon, Indians and u grand time wus enjoyed by every- one although it was s cold dey. Chapter IV On September, 1940, begun the famous year in which we entered H. H. S. with the dignity of Seniors confer- red upon us. Perhaps we sometines didn't live up to our name when we played pranks, and run in the hall und so on, but when we thought about this being the last year of our deer, old high school days we assume a dignified manner. This year we were the smallest clues in school and what s jolly and dignified group! Margaret Opel Jenn decided she would discontinue her studies und go to Georgetown, Indians. ' The officers this yeur were Neve Dicus, presidentg Robert Howlett, vice presidentg and Gayle M3DQUgh, sec- retary und. treasurer. Mrs. May could not stay away from our class so -she was our sponsor again. This year Kenneth Tull and Boone LdGrunge Iudd prominent posi- tions on the basketball squad, and were looking forward to their chevrons. They have been outstanding players during their high school days. They have exch played on the team for four years. This your the Hanover bas- ketball players won the county championship: something Which gave us ell u thrill. We assure you that Kenneth and Boone hed a lot to do with our victory. Baccalaureate services on April 27 and Commence- ment Exercises, 'May 2, will end the high school career of the Senior Class, small in number but mighty in deed. - Qfff dedl H U T ' .. A 4
