FRESHMAN YEAR Our first year at Ilolten High began almost four years ago, but it seems as though it were yesterday. How lost we were as we wandered around the corridors, hardly daring to ask where our homerooms were! It took only a short time, however, to become acquainted with our new classmates, studies, and teachers. Football season was in full swing and our class was well represented by “Dick” Sau- ehuk and “Richie” Landers on the Varsity Football Squad. Many freshman girls parti- cipated in varsity and junior varsity Field Hockey, most of us playing for the first time. Next on our busy schedule was the Freshman-Senior party held on October 11, 1956. It was here that the girls were fully initiated by our Senior sisters. Donna Spakas stopped the show with her hilarious costume, and Carol Proud’s poem about her Senior sister was voted best. We finally felt that we were a part of wonderful Holten High. “Richie” Landers and “Jackie” King were elected to serve as our Freshman representa- tives to the Student Council. “Pat” Moulton was chosen as a cheerleader and Helen Hutch- ings, Ellen C.illis, and “Sandy” Lawson joined Joyce Penta on the Baton Squad. We met and conquered mid-year exams, but hoped, for the most part, to do better in our finals. Our class was well represented in Foot- ball, Basketball, Hockey, Baseball, and Track. As our many activities show, we enjoyed an ambitious, successful Freshman year. Page Twenty-two i
