CLASS HISTORY In reviewing the classes of the past, the fact comes to mind that on every other year the class that enters High School, is very noticeably in- ferior. Now for example, in the year 1943, one of these poor, inferior classes entered our halls of fame OR MISERY. The class which entered in 1943 tusl, being of an unusually intelligent and studious nature were allowed to organize the second week in September, to the great joy of our principal and faculty. The faculty, however, upon the reception of the Ianuary papers, showed very little tact by making it be known that they expected us to settle down to our studies as if we meant business. , When Freshmen, we chose for our leaders Iames Gay, President: Patricia Blakley, Vice-President: Sylvia Wightman, Secretary: Russell Kernple, Treas- urer: and Ervilla Andrews, Student Council Representative. We selected Miss Clapp and Mr. Marlatt as our very capable advisers. The high lights of the year were a Freshman Dance and a skating party. As Sophornores We became more acclimated to High School activity. For our officers we elected the following: Patricia Blakley, Presidentg Sylvia Wightman, Vice-President: Betty Mann, Secretary: Laura Austin, Treasurer: lames Gay, Student Council Representative. Our advisers were Mrs. Kear and Mrs. Ravel. For our assembly we gave a Minstrel Show with music, dancing, jokes, and skits. We also enjoyed a dance, sleigh-ride, and picnic. During our first year as upperclassmen we elected Clay Harder, Presi- dent: Donald French, Vice-President: Laura Austin, Secretary: lohn Kulikow- ski, Student Council Representative: Sylvia Wightrnan, Student Council Alternate. Our advisers were Miss Criscuolo and Mr. Newhill. Iarnes Gay defeated Betty Mann as Vice-President of Student Council. The Iunior Ball was held in Ianuary with Betty Mann and lames Gay chosen as the queen and king. The Iunior and Senior Banquet was another high point of our year. Our Senior officers were: Edward Geckle, President: Dolores Dickson, Vice-President: lean Bates, Secretary: lean Carey, Treasurer: Russell Kemple, Student Council Representative: Richard Brink, Student Council Alternate. Our very capable advisers were Miss Wethey and Mr. Oldfield. Our Senior Play was A Case of Springtime with the leading parts played by Ervilla Andrews and Clay Harder and second leads by lean Carey and Richard Miner. Our Senior Ball was held in February with very pretty Valentine decorations and a good orchestra. lean Carey and Russell Temple were chosen as our queen and king. The Senior Class representative at the American Legion Speaking Contest was Betty Gunderman. In the Spring we entered the Willis Speaking Contest and presented original speeches. Other features of the Senior Year are the Iunior and Senior Banquet, with the Iuniors providing the program and our annual all-day picnic. , Four altogether too short years have passed and now We are preparing to leave Haverling as students for the last time. We are beginning to realize what happy years these have been. We sincerely hope that the future Seniors will have had as successful and pleasant school life as we have had. i A Mary A. Whitford
