Class History At the beginning of the school term in 1942, a group of small, but active, youngsters enrolled in the Hildreth Public School. They were as follows: Billy Denman, Shirley Stuhmer, Dean Jelden, Harold Bunger, Lyle Nordbrock, Larry Schwartz, Brian Halbert, Lavon Johnson, Lily Anne Hansen, and Evon Nordbrock. During the second year only eight of the original ten returned. The ones lost during this time were Billy Denman and Lyle Nordbrock. We also gained Paul Harms. And so we were nine happy kids off in a year of adventure and excitement. Upon entering our third year we were all the same crowd, but on September 23 we lost Paul, and again on February 12 Lavon moved away. So we continued just us seven through the fourth grade of our phase of the educational world. At the beginning of our fifth term in Hildreth, two more joined us. They were Marilyn Tjaden and LaDonna Knapp. In the sixth grade Dean Jelden, Larry Schwartz, Brian Halbert, Harold Bunger, Evon Nordbrock, Marilyn Tjaden, Shirley Stuhmer, Lily Anne Hansen, and Paul Harms composed the lively group. In our seventh year we lost Paul H. but gained Peggy Endicot. At the second semester of the eighth grade, Peggy moved away. So on to high school we went with our knees knocking from fright and holding the name of the Green Freshmen. We started our new but exciting adventure with this group: Larry Schwartz, Harold Bunger, John Schmidt, Brian Halbert, Dean Jelden, Lavon Johnson, Harold Eckhoff, Donald Loschen, Carol Frecks, Shirley Stuhmer, Lily Anne Hansen, and LaDonna Knapp. At the beginning of the second semester we were joined by Karen Caspers. In our Sophomore year we remained the same except we lost Harold Eckhoff. In our Junior year Donald L. left this group, but we did gain Beth Schroder. On entering our last and most exciting year, we lost Lavon J. , but at last we carried the name of being full fledged Seniors only to enter into a world un- known following the Commencement Exercises on May 18, when we receive our diplomas and turn our tassels; a day never to be forgotten.
