The eighth grade of Holmes-Liberty has, at this time of writing, twenty three members. Out of the twenty three that started to school in 1942, eight members are in the grade now, Our teacher in the first grade was Mrs. Cook, and our second and third grade teachers were Miss Green and Miss Holland. ' Mrs. Maskey was our teacher in the fourth grade. Here we took part in an operetta titled Hiawatha along with the fifth and sixth grade pupils. While in the fifth grade, with Mrs. Cook as our teacher, we prepared and pre- sented The Three Ring Circus. The highlight of our sixth year was presenting an operetta titled Kathleen, Mrs, Zwllner was our homeroom teacher this year. The seventh grade was new and it offered much fun because we were in junior high school. We enjoyed the parties we had. As eighth graders we are well on our way to becoming typical H-L students. We already have five members in the band, and others are studying musical in- struments in the hope oi becoming band members next year. Mr. I-left has been our advisor in both our seventh and eighth grade years. 26

During these nine years, ten of us have stayed together: Betty Brinkman, Daryle Cobb, Rosa Hill, Martha Kalb, Eddie Reiter, Norman Schiefer, Lillian Schimpf, Gerald Steiger, Buster Tschanen, and Homer Ulmer. Do you remember the night when the first grade had lots of fun playing in the rhythm band? It was really more clatter than rhythm, but our inexperienced ears didn't mind. Later on we gave an operetta, The Song of Hiawatha. During this presentation, and frequently since that time, we have discovered that we made very good Indians. When we reached the seventh grade, we began to feel that we were really growning up, for now we could come upstairs for our classes. Now that we are in our ninth year, and have suffered through the annual initiation given by the seniors, we hope that we have really become a part of Holmes-Liberty High School. Z5

During this year, we gave an operetta called The Months of the Year , In the fourth grade we had three teachers: Mrs. Ivhskey for homeroom, and Mrs. Cook and Miss Barr were our other teachers. We gave an operetta this year, also, which was called The Circus . Mrs. Cook, Mrs. Maskey, and Mrs. Zellner were our teachers in the fifth grade Again we gave an operetta, Kathleen, We had lots of fun during our school days, for we still had birthday parties and celebrations for many occasions. Mrs. Zellner was our sixth grade teacher for homeroom, and the others were Mrs. Cook and Miss Bower. 'We were permitted to give an operetta this year: Tom Sawyer. It is fun being upstairs this year: Mrs. Bowen is our homeroom teacher. Everything goes well except when she gets her paddle out. Then we don't know quite what to do. We have had a Hallowe'en party so far this year. The class 'is planning a Lincoln Day Assembly, using a playlet called Abraham Lincoln's Character. Z7
