We supported the Victory Loan Drive by selling bonds down town. Contributions have been made toward the construction of the Recreation Park. One of the highlights of the year was the Freshman-Sophomore football game, which, despite the loss of the game by the Sophomores, aroused much class spirit. A large majority of the class participated in the game. Another event important to us was an assembly program, called The Crunchie Wunchie Quiz Program, which was a miniature radio program written by Dot Davis and Helen Hilbert with the theme song written by Ernest Meadows. The play, directed by members of the class with the able assistance of our class sponsor, Miss Puckett, was enjoyed by everyone. We are now making our plans for the traditional Senior-Sophomore party, spon- sored by the Sophomore class, which We aI'e sure will be a great success. This party is only one of our ways of expressing our gratitude to the Seniors for making our second year in Old Hernando High so pleasant. Page twenty-one

The Senior Class of '47 fwe hopej began life as bawling Freshman, about sixty- five strong, with Mrs. Wilkins and Mrs. Drane as homeroom teachers. We felt mighty big, but after the Seniors had entertained us on the day commonly called Rat Day, we were rather subdued. We began our Sophomore year as brats for so our teachers thought. Of course, we disagreedl, but deciding there was plenty to be done we soon settled down under the able leadership of Mrs. Pekovsky and Miss Puckett. The climax of this year was reached when we gave a tacky party for the Seniors at the Woodlawn Country Club. It was greatly enjoyed by all. Soon after that came exams, and then-well, what do you think? -we were Juniors! Juniors! Sounded big, didn't it? Well, it still does, in view of such a busy adolescent life for our class. Our first task was selling drinks and hot dogs at foot- ball games. Next in line came the sale of magazines near Christmas. Then, we embarked upon the Junior Play, Hilarity House, which was a grand success. The proceeds from the play went towards the Junior-Senior banquet, one of the best given in many years, we thought. As we boldly climb toward the highest step in high school life, we fervently hope to be as grand a grown-up Senior Class as is the Class of 1946. Page twenty

They have taken part in buying and selling War Bonds during the War Bond Drive. Mrs. M. G. Lylerly was home room teacher to half of the Freshman Class during' the first part of the year. Now, Mr. E. L. Smith has charge of Mrs. M. G. Lylerly's home room class and Mrs. Janet Brooks has charge of the other half of the Fresh- man Class. A The day which we all looked forward to wlth dread was Rat Day. Of course, the Seniors were kind and considerate We did everything they asked of us, although they almost killed us. We wish to express our appreciation that they didn't. We must admit that they are a swell bunch of kids-may there be more like them. The Freshman Class took an active part in our cleanup program in which we painted our home rooms, dusted, etc., and made things shine. As a whole all their work this year was very satisfactory. This is the first high school for practically all of them and the more they are here the more they like it. Page twenty-two
