As the freshmen entered HTHS. they felt strange to this school: strange to their teachers. their classes. and their classmates. They wondered if they would ever End their way through this new confused way ol life. For many of these students. this was probably their first ex- perience in meeting new people and being separated lrom childhood com- panions. in high school life, however. one can not be without friends for long. lnitiation. mixers. class parties. home- coming. and club drives pushed the stu- dents on to a good start towards making new friends. These new companions shared many ol the same interests and beliefs. were active in the many clubs and organizations around HT. and were soon no longer strangers to each other. For the sophomores and juniors. the reopening ol school meant a chance to renew old friendships, to have lun with those not seen on vacation, and to con- tinue the studies, activities, and sports in which they were interested. They were no longer thought of as small groups of individuals. but as a united class. 'lille seniors came hack for their final year to Hnd themselves the highest up- perclassmen. to whom all took for an example. 'llhey took part in all the activi- ties and sports with more enthusiasm than ever shown before. Individuals in the Class of 756 were friends throughout their high school years. Friendships have been developed by means of the many student activities. seasonal sports, and normal class activi- ties through the years. at 1 'X -it .....-, as mf . .-.Ex sw H:-:Q Us Maixs ng ,ft ...-.-.:...a.- A--X X Q 41 siNi'. ...wx fe X as ' .S S ...sp .. ,, 5-.M-ns N' .mv QI
