HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF '48 The up and coming class of '48 entered this new and different hall of study in the fall of 1942. Out of our total which was 68, we elected Ora Miller, Ir. as President, Floyd Kimple as vice-president, and Carol Jean Sackrider as secretary- treasurer. As supervisors, we had Mrs. Culler and Mr. Kunkle. The next year we were back but with a loss of 9. We elected Betty Tomlinson as President, Patricia Wyckoff as vice-president, and Deloy Preston, Jr. as sec- retary-treasurer. Miss Sauers and Mr. Rodocker were our 8th grade supervisors. Again in the fall of 1944 we met, this time as Freshmen and with the loss of 1 member. We had afrightened feeling, for as I mentioned before, we were now Freshmen and we all had to guard against that certain ffmenacet' better known as initiation! Many of us even took such careful steps as to stay 4 at home every night so as not to be caught by some so called ffupper-classmanf' We chose Ora Miller, President, Naomi Lantz, vice-president, and Anna Neidhardt as secretary-treasurer with Mr. Snorf as supervisor. At last we were Sophomores., This year we found that we had lost 2 members, thus making our total 56., Very proudly, we took the advantages offered us as Sophomores and chose green and white as our class colors, the white carnation as our class flower, and Life is but a picture, so paint it wellw as our class motto and with great pride and joy we ordered our class rings and pins. Dick Moore was elected President, Bill Cleland, vice-president, and Anna Neidhardt as sec- retary-treasurer while Mrs. Culler served as our class sponsor. In 1946-47 we suddenly became aware of the astonishing fact that we were fin- ally Iuniors a.nd proud of it! This year was a struggle to raise money for the expenses that were to be ours, however, it was well done. We, the junior Class proudly boast of the fact that, financially speaking, our class play was the most successful play that has been given by any class for the past five years. Our class was very active in organizations such as F.F.A., G.A.A., band, chorus, Latin and commercial clubs, basketball, football and others., This year with our class number dwindled down to 47, we elected Pete Pearson, President, Anna Neidhardt, vice-president, Betty Tomlinson, secretary, and Albert Zuber as trea- surer. With the aid of our supervisors, Miss Moores and Mr. Zimmerman, and our class rings and pins which made us feel more united, we have completed, in our own estimation, a very successful junior year. As a group the junior Class looks forward with anticipation to next year but will dread the day when we must leave H. H. S. --by Betty Tomlinson Sponsored by Griest SL Hilbert, Optometrist
