Class history As the final bell rang at the Jackson Township school, September, 1937, twenty-six eager, excited children scurried down the hall to the first grade room. The day they had looked forward to for so long had finally arrived-the first day of school. From Miss Kemp, our kind and patient teacher, we learned many things, including the fact that we weren ' t supposed to talk to each other during class. It seemed several of the girls were inclined to be rather talkative; consequently, they spent a good share of their time standing in the corner. Miss Henderson, who later became Mrs. Williams, was our teacher in the second grade. Myron, alias Casanova Ripley was the most popular boy in the class. Recesses were never dull when Myron was around. This year we welcomed into our class Evelyn Fulmer, LaVon Mickley, Boneata Perkins, Richard Van Meter, and Austin Simon. We lost Alice Tribolet. We were then promoted to the third grade We liked school this year, except for one thing-the recesses weren ' t long enough. Our favorite game was Civil War, but about the time we got in the middle of an exciting game, Miss Pflieger would, ring the bell. This year we gained Norma Childs, Wilma Holley, Kay Pittenger, Bobby Swan- son. Those who left our class were: Norma Childs, Bobby Swanson, Kay Pittenger, La- Von Mickley, and last, but by no means least, Myron Ripley. In the fourth grade we were under the guidance of Pansy Davis. Our class sold the most Christmas seals this year, and we were rewarded by being the guests at a party held in the music room. We gained Beverly Baker, Velma Dowell, Richard Van Meter, and Kay Pittenger. This year we were all saddened by the loss of our dear friend and classmate Beverly Morton, who was stricken with polio. We also lost Richard Van Meter, Beverly Baker, Velma Dowell, Evelyn Fulmer, and Kat Pittenger. We passed with flying colors into the fifth grade. Those joining our class were: Jimmy Beltz, Billy Davis, Richard Pichard, Kenneth Snitz, Walter Schwartz, Arthur Scott, Gerald Thomas, Richard Van Meter, and Ethel Yoquelet. Some days we had extra long recesses. Could it have been because Miss Kaufman and the Agriculture teacher were conversing?
