The efficient and well running organization which is our school is the result, in part of the conscientious efforts of our board members. Because of their interest in our behalf, the school curriculum has been broadened to ine clude several courses of study. To these civic minded citizens, who unselfishly devote much time to the promotion of our school program, we shall forever be indebted. Monarch - 6 SENIORS OF 1946: Nineteen hundred forty-six, the year of your graduation, is the first year of peace after World War ll. Most of your high school days were spent while the entire world was engaged in terrible battle. Some former classmates are now veterans of that war and one has given his life to make this world a better place in which to live. Great as were your responsibilities during war days, equally great is your responsibility during peace. You will find your high school diploma of inestimable value to you as you face the future. That diploma will admit, where those who have none, will be excludedp it will allow you to share with others, while those who have none, will be denied. Cherish the memory of your high school days and your diploma among your dearest possessions as a key that helps to unlock the unknown. My continued good wishes for a successful future in the home, in the office, in the factory, on the farm, or in the services of your country go with each of you as you leave our high school for your individual fields of conquest.

Williamsport Hospital School Nurse Monarch - 9 l ,STf1fm!enlf Chennai Organized six years ago tor the purpose of fostering better relations between the students and the faculty, our Student Council is still going strong and is the only form of self-government in the school. Student Council determines what activities count toward an honor key and the number of points each activity carries, also the scholarship that must be obtained each marking period for a pupil to be on the honor roll. lt com- piles a school calendar and thus regulates the social activities. Another duty is to recommend and establish clubs ot high standard in the school. Some of the activities during the year were: the promotion ot the sale of war bonds and stamps in the school, the planning of assembly programs, the landscaping of the front lawn ot our school building, the presenting of a flag to the school, keeping the appearance of the school attractive, sponsoring drives for the Tuberculosis Society, Red Cross, and other Welfare organizations, and the sponsoring ot several dances and a minstrel show. The following were chairmen of committees: Grace Corson, Civic and Social Aflairsg Dale Smith, Activities, lanet Sheets, Assembly, Delphine Trick, Service and Etiquette, Robert Webster, Scholarship. Officers elected for l945-46 were: President, Pauline Ritter: vice-president, Bill Hilly secretary, Audrey Rhinardg treasurer, Emma Harding. Faculty advisers were: Miss Corle, Mr. Creveling, and Mr. Ashkar. Monarch - lf? glasses held May 25, in the FRESHMAN CLASS We entered Hughesville High School September 8, l942, as timid freshmen With a grand total of seventy-one pupils to start our high school career. Early in the year we elected class officers in Mr. Crev- eling's room. Those elected were as follows: president, Luther Gardnerg vice president, Eugene Glidewellg secre- tary-treasurer, Thelma Sones. Our one social event of the year was a Christmas party held at the home of lrrna Wishard, but We all par- ticipated in Whatever activities the school provided. Our class advisers were Mr. Ashkar and Mr. Creveling. SOPHOMORE CLASS One more step up the ladder we came as Silly Sophs September 8, 1943. More familiar with the laws and Ways of the school, We enrolled as a class of sixty-one pupils. The first great thing for us to accomplish was the election of class officers: president, Helen McCarty: vice president, William Hill: secretary, Thelma Sonesg and treasurer, tune Oliver. We had two parties-the first, a roller skating party and Weiner roast at Trout Ponds Park. While we Walked down and back We sang songs and every one had an en- joyable time. Our next and last was a Christmas party held in Mellen's Social Hall. Class advisers Were Miss McGeehan and Mr, Kelsey. cc A ZW President .... Vice President .. Secretary ....

After a brief check-up We discovered that We had lost seven pupils. ln a few days class officers were elected. With Har- old Akers as our president: Audrey Rhinard, vice-president: Helen McCarty, secretary, and Iune Oliver, treasurer: We looked forward to a successful year. Our first event Was a Weiner roast and skating party at Trout Ponds Park. ln November We ordered our class rings, and they were received during the summer vacation. A Christmas party held in the next social event and later came Rose , our class play, Which was a cially and otherwise. Last, but not least, Was our Prom auditorium was our Mammy's Lil' Wild great success finan- auditorium. Two things distinguished this from former lunior-Senior Proms-the May Pole Dance at intermission and the fact that We had a clear sky, the first time for many years on the day of the Prom. We left school this year with high hopes of making our last year in Hughesville High the best year. SENIOR CLASS We enrolled fifty-one strong in the Senior year, eager to begin the last lap of our school career. Miss Roan and Mrs. Plotts were our faculty advisers. Our first class meet- ing Was held September 6, and the following officers were elected: president, Helen McCortyg vice-president, Pauline Ritterg secretary, Emma Brungardg treasurer, lune Oliver. The first social event of the year was a combined Weiner roast and scavenger hunt October 4, at Collins Houseknechts home. Next was a Christmas party held in the auditorium, December Zl. Early in the year We chose as class colors, navy blue and fuchsia, and class flower, fuchsia rose. Not the End, but the Beginning was chosen as our motto. Our class play, Peter, Beware! presented November 15 and l6, proved a great success. We all took part in our Class Night Exercises May 17, after Which everyone received his Yearbook. Commence- ment Exercises, May 3l, marked our last meeting, and We bade good-bye to Hughesville High School.

La I ,rv H . 77 an Mer omorrow lune 1, 1966 Dear Friends, So many of you have asked us what all the members of the class of 1946 are doing that we decided to writelthis letter to you. From all last reports this is what we found out: Through these years Grace Corson has worked herself up to the position of Mr. Mellen's private secretary. lune Crist has finally settled down with all the little Smith farm- ers around. Lucille Doane is still attending the dances at Iudd's in hopes of getting a permanent partner. We find that Eleanor Gordner spends her summers in New York pulling weeds. Ruth May's sailor soon became tired of Navy life, and she is very happy with -the part she ,plays in keeping up the farm. Remember back in 1946 when Leo married a Geisha girl? We have just heard that Iune Oliver's heart is now on the mend. Audrey Rhinard is still in love with Harold, but is putting in her time teaching because they are both too bashful to get together. This is a big day for Ethel Wallis. She has just gotten a one cent raise at the Hughesville Textile Mills. Thelma Sones, after trying out several others, has decided that George is the one and is all set for the wedding. True to her promise, Phyllis Snyder hasn't changed her name because she mar- ried a Snyder: still she can't-seem to forget Calvin. Emma Brungard, who said she was too tall to be romantic, has turned several proposals aside and is now President of the Grange National Bank. Although Helen McCarty pro- fessed to be a man-hater during her-school days, she is performing the role of secretary and wife to l-lughesville's number one brain specialist. Helen Whitenight has a big pull, in fact, many in Unityville, aslshe is life partner in a trucking business. Georgine Eichehlaub became such a skilled cheerleader that, she is now traveling with the Sonestown basketball team as head cheerleader. Norma Bradley doesn't know that her sailor was discharged twenty years ago, and she is still waiting for a letter from him. Florence Derrick has taken her art work very seri- ously. She is married to the principal of Picture Rocks High School and is teaching art on the side. On Muncy Creek we find a fishing boat by the name of Hagerman where Mary Fought is living a happy life. Carlene Gray's man-hunt has ended and she is now the Mrs. Lt. Lunsfar. Three days a week of Pauline Gray's busy life are taken up doing the family wash. Irma Herr has reached the top of the ladder and is head waitress at The Lakeside, Eagles- mere. Florence and Margaret Kitzmiller -are teaching a Home Economics Course in Unityville, strictly for men. Doris Houseknecht wasted no time in getti.ng married, and she and Don will observe their twentieth wedding anni- versary this month. loyce Lassinger is too busy taking care of her twins to sit on the front step these days. The leading ladies of Hughesville spend their leisure time at Anna McBride's beauty shoppe discussing the latest news. Betty Mummey is head nurse at Chippewa Hospital-the largest in Lycoming County. Pauline Ritter, who made her fortune in the candy business, lives in a mansion on Broad Street. Betty Bigger has been running competition with Bette Davis for the last few years and is now Holly- wood's most popular actress. After twenty years of life as an old maid, Dorothy Rogers has decided that it isn't so pleasant and is preparing for a big wedding. Mary Shaner went into the nursing profession. She is night superinten- dent at Danville's famous hospital. Mary Alice Springer has never forgotten her school girl crush on Fos and takes a daily walk to Bryantown. Fern Taylor has set up bus- iness as a Parson , Calvin Diltz has a school in Lairds- ville where he teaches his students how to act in High School. Russell Dugan has a chain of Dugan's General Stores and his headquarters are in Lairdsville.

Basketball received most consideration through loyal attendance at games both home and away. Good sportsmanship and well-directed cheering led by cheerleaders selected by the association were always in evidence. Intramural basketball was an important part of our program. It afforded active participation by many pupils in all grades since these games were generally played during lunch hour. This term we sponsored a wrestling program which we hope will develop a fully manned and talented team worthy of representing Hughesville High School on the mat. With the presentation of awards to each deserving athletic participant, the Athletic Association closed a very active year. PRAYER OE A SPORTSMANH Dear Lord, in the battle that goes on through life, I ask but a field that is fair, A chance that is equal with all in the strife, A courage to strive and to dare. If I should win, let it be by the code With my faith and my honor held high, If I should lose, let me stand by the road And cheer as the winners go by.

Home Economics girls aim to be hospitable resourceful, healthy, thrifty, helpful, thought- ful, and neatly and orderly poised. They are clean in word, thought and deed: honest, loyal and homeloving.

The designation dirt farmer as for- merly often applied has long since been by- passed. The modern farm boy must be mechan- ically minded.

With Carlene Gray, Bill Hill, and Georgine Eichenlaub still in the line up from last term, we had a total of tive lively noise leaders. Whether at home or away, Hughesville High School was always repre- sented by the cheerleaders. Some new yells were worked out during the year and many old ones revised. No one will ever forget Zigga-ta-Boom and Boom-a-lackaf' They surely did give the team encouragement and pep and showed oft the never-dying fighting spirit of old Hughesville High. Carlene, Bill and Georgine cheered their last game for I-lughesville High, February 22, leaving Virginia and lane to look forward to another successful cheerleading season. We, the cheerleaders, wish to thank the student body for their coopera- tion both in pep meetings and at the games. We were proud to serve our school. Good luck, cheerleaders of 1946-47.
