CLASS HISTORY As the days speed swiftly by, we begin to realize that our high school days will soon come to a close, Naturally, as the time approaches the animation of each one of us is growing more intense and we become thrilled by the mere thought of graduation. However, deep down in our hearts we feel with great sincerity the many joys and pleasures of our high school days. As this is a yearbook dedicated to memories, let us turn to the past, so in the future when we turn each page it will help us recall the many wonderful high school days. As we began our high school career on September 11, 1944, our class totalled fifty-three. Of this total twenty students resided in East Petersburg and vicinity, seven- teen in Landisville and sixteen in Rohrerstown. Having been greeted cordially by Mr. Hackman, we found ourselves divided into two sections-the academic section totalling nineteen, under the guidance of Miss Stein- Komph, and the commercial section consisting of the other thirty-four students under the guidance of Mr. Good. After a few weeks of confusion and after we realized that we were not only here to entertain the teachers, we finally got down to business. Early in the year a class meeting was held and we elected Jack Longenecker, Presidentg Burnell Brubaker, Vice-Presidentg Jessie Covert, Secretary, and Gerald Car- rigan, Treasurer. At the beginning of the second semester Nancy Fisher, Gene Grubb and Jay Risser joined our class. So passed our freshman year and it seemed to go by so rapidly that there was no time for us to get into trouble. Returning very enthusiastically to embark upon our second year of high school was quite an experience, for we were no longer insignificant freshmen but actually superior sophomores. Well! At least we thought we were. Serving very capably as class officers for this year were Jay Risser, Gerald Carrigan, and Theresa Mohler. During the year many of our classmates were very active in sports. Joan Fawber, Joan Forney, Ann Shenck and Jo Weaver played on the Varsity Hockey Team. Also, the Junior Varsity Basketball Team, which was composed of Don Cope, Don Ginder, Dan Gingrich, Jack Longenecker, Jay Risser, Chet Schoenberger and Bob Schockley, had a very commendable record of sixteen wins and four losses. When Spring arrived and baseball came into season, our class was represented by Jack Longenecker and Jay Risser who captured regular positions on the varsity nine. At the close of our sophomore year, our membership totalled forty-eightg how- ever, on our return to begin our junior year there was a decided drop to thirty-three. During this year Jay Risser, Jack Longenecker and Ann Shenck held the duties of class oflicers. Gaining starting positions on the hockey squad this year were Joan Fawber, Joan Forney, Ann Shenck and Jo Weaver. Early in the year soccer was again added to the sports calendar and enthusiasm was high among the fellows. Mr. Mease accepted the task of coaching and turned out a very fine team which bowed to New Holland High School for the championship after a long hard struggle. The days passed by and soon the desire to play basketball surged like a torrential river through our brains. Our basketball team this year was successful in capturing the county championship by defeating Columbia and New Holland. Figuring very prom- inently toward this success were these members of our class who held down regular berths on the team: Don Cope and Jack Longenecker playing guard and Jiay Risser playing forward. No wonder our team was able to reach this goal. Remember those four vivacious cheerleaders of our class, namely Betty Edwards, Joan Fawber, Theresa Mohler and Ann Shenck who were cheering lustily at each game. Bringing our junior year to a close was the Junior-Senior Prom which was a tre- mendous success. The good orchestra and the beautiful decorations by the more artistic
