J. W. Ulmer very nobly guided us. The operetta, The White Gypsy , was the main event of the sixth grade. When we reached junior high school, we found many things new and different to us: election of officers, parties, and programs provided us with new thoughts. In the eighth grade Mrs. Fern Bowen took us over and helped us through many of our difficulties, At last we reached the great status of freshmen. After going through the much- dreaded initiation, which wasn't so bad after all, we we re allowed to go to high school parties and join the various school organizations. Although our class was small, we were represented in Choir, Band, Triple Trio, F. H.A., F.F.A., G.A.A., Track, and Girls' Soft- ball, Volleyball, and Track teams. Mrs. Bowen was again our advisor in the freshmen year. Soon we found ourselves in the sophomore class with fifteen members: Mrs. Bowen was our advisor. We started this year off right by winning the magazine sales contest which entitled us to all the ice cream we could eat in fifteen minutes. Oh, what a dayf We sponsored the Sophomore Hop. All the class worked hard, and the result was a beautiful event. This year, we had a larger representation from our class in the various school organizations. Now we are hard working juniors, earning money by selling ice cream, Christmas cards, and stationery in order to sponsor the junior-senior banquet at the El Sombrero on April 2.8. Also in this, our junior year, we picked our class rings, and, although some members had theirs only a few hours or a few days, it was still a great event. On March 24, under the direction of Mrs. Schieber, the juniors presented a three -act farce, l-Iilarity House, by J'ay Tobias. The parts of this play were taken by Alys Boyd, Judy Powers, Barbara TenEyck, Lyle Whitmeyer, Charles Spiegel, Donald Bowen, Nlarian Linn, Betty Sharp, Gene Linn, and Daryl Brause. This has been an exciting year, and it is hard to realize that we have come eleven years along our iourney in Holmes-Liberty School. 23

Tenth Grade FIRST ROW: Dolores Ross, Secretary: Donna Oberlanderg Dorothy Schieberg Kathryn Faclcler: Pauline Linn, Parliamentariang Norma Stone: Barbara Gearhart, Student Council Representative: Peggy Shoemaker, SECOND ROW: Betty Gossman: Ellen Spiegel, President: Gale Bowen. Treasurer: Grace Hawkins, Vice- President: Ruth Butte, Alternate Student Council Representative: Janet Brinkman: Ruth Heft Miss Curtis. THIRD ROW: Stanley Sipeg Galen Whitmeyer: Junior Anthony: Charles Cady: James Bear: Bill Campbell: Robert Koons: Richard Schiefer: Wayne Scheffler: Charles Crall. Eighteen members of our present class of twenty -five have gone through the first ten years of school life at Holmes-Liberty. ln thinking back over these years, we recall many pleasant memories. We all remember how Miss Jessie Shoal, our first grade teacher, found it necessary to walk out on us. That was because we talked so much. We really worried about this when it came time to go home! The second grade found us learning poems under the guidance of Miss Doris Green. Our favorite for the year was The Gingham Dog and the Calico Cat which we recited for the Comrnunity Club. Miss Belva Clary ushered us safely through the third grade and long division. This year we gave a Mother Goose play for an assembly program. The fourth grade seemed quite different to us. since we had four different teachers. We found that we really had to settle down and study. and that there were no more rest priods. To many. the fifth grade will be remembered for the fun in participating in the operetta, White Gypsy. lt really brought out the dramatic abilities in us. if they can be termed such at this early age! The sixth grade again found us using our dramatic and musical talents in assernbly plays, and also in a cantata. Our teachers for these grades were Mrs. Daryl Gatchell. Mrs. O. C. Maskey, Mrs. Robert Cook, and Mr. J. W. Ulmer. Finally we reached the strange world of Junior High Life. It seemed Quite wonderful. to elect our own class officers and to plan our own after-school parties. Our eighth grade history class gave an assembly which provided much fun while dressing up and performing in Colonial costumes. Reaching the proud station of Freshmen was truly an achievement for us. We were subjected to quite a cruel initiation, having to carry around catalogues all day. but the all-high school party alter this torture helped sooth our temporarily injured spirits. Many of our class became members of the basketball, softball, and baseball teams. We were well re- presented in the choir and glee clubs, along with the F.H.A.. G.A.A., F.F.A.. and other high school organizations. We now have come five -sixths of our way through school, and find ourselves happy sophomores. Our big event of this year was-a semi-formal dance, The Sophomore Hop. The theme for this Hop was Winter Wonderland. ln February, we presented an assembly for the school. lt consisted of a play and several novelty numbers. Our patient advisor who has seen us through all the trials of our seventh. eighth. ninth. and tenth grades, is Miss Edith Curtis. It has been a lung climb to the ranks of sophomores. but we have enjoyed every step d the way. Z4
