R E V O N A H SENIOR CLASS HISTORY As I recall, this is what happened It was an unforgettable day for Mrs. Eleanor Gaethe, that bright September day in 1942, for lhat was the day forty-eight little, angelic-looking first graders tramped in and presented themselves for her guidance. Little did she realize what a mark they would leave on our little red school house. Well, we all have to go sometime, so finally most of us left Mrs. Gaethe and moved on to Mrs. Thelma Vanmanen. Here we picked up nine new members. In time, a chosen few passed on to Mrs. Bourne who soon left and was replaced by Miss Thomas. By now five new members had been added to our class. To compensate for these additions, we left several behind when we picked up our books and advanced to fourth grade, taught by Miss Vera Graves. Soon we were joined by eight new members and together we slowly made our way tc fifth grade, taught by Mrs. Ina Ehredt and along with six new members, we proceeded to wend our weary way onward to sixth grade. In sixth grade, taught by Mrs. Emma Harksen, we gained four new members, and lost several. Mrs. Jones inherited us next along with three new students. Soon we picked up our things and transferred to eighth grade under the tutelage of Mrs. Edith Morrison, and where we gained three new pupils. At last we were ready for high school, so together with many new students: Don Marken, Gail Irwin, Richard McGinnis, Jacqueline McLean, David Murfin, Barbara Oates, Bob Wendling, Reginald George, we decended on Hanover High School. Mr. George Huettle was our class advisor but we didn't accomplish much our first year besides losing a great deal of our dignity during Freshman Initation and making a little money -in the magazine campaign. Mr. Richard Wojan inherited us as class advisor during our Sophomore year. We made most of our money from magazine sales, record dances and a Soph- omore Dance. We had two new students: Bruce Butts and Alfred Spaude. During our Junior year we began to get busy to make money. We gave a play Junior Miss, Sports Nite with the Seniors, gave a Chili Supper, served refreshments at the games and gave the Seniors a prom. Shirley Smyth was our only new member. This year had been an extremely busy one, under the guidance of Richard Campbell, our new class advisor. We had a Fun Night with the Freshman, a Christmas Dance, a Class play Charley's Aunt, Valentine Dance, and gave record dances. As a result of all our hard work and endeavors we went on a Class trip and enjoyed ourselves thoroughly. Though we will miss high school and all its good times, we look forward to the future with eager expectance, and high hopes. 19 5 4
