Witlw Dick Boak as president, Pickle Houseknecht as vice-president, Ken Fox as secretary and Don Wortliington as treasurer, the juniors viewed the school term ahead of them with anticipation of a great success. A great number of events kept the monotonous grind of study from becoming too dull. These included the arrival of the rings and pins, half a dozen or more successful class parties, a card party and last but not least the junior-Senior Prom. The social gatherings spons- ored by the class were very successful and much of the credit belongs to our class advisor, Miss Helen Reese, and a number of class mothers. The members of our class took an active part in all school activities, athletics, minstrel show, debating, and school paper.

HILL, Sectyf' The early history of Hughesville Schools may be confined to the eighteen or twenty years of its childhood, from 1852 to the early seventies. After that time its annual running became a public duty to be directed under the guiding hand of men and women appointed to that position. Today we can view with pride, the result of those years of labor and endeavor. One look at our schools, the schools of Hughes- ville, verifies the fact that those pioneers did a good job and one that will last, perhaps not so long as the Pyramids or the Hanging Gardens of Babylon or the Coliseum in Rome, but one that will do a much more useful and patriotic duty, that of educating the American children.
