Tw COMFLIMEN TS OF Gfass l.SZl0l'y One fateful September day back in 1946, we Seniors walked up the front steps, our eyes shining with anticipationg we entered the hallowed halls of Kenton High School as Freshmen. After days of mad scrambling and deciphering the ever pres- ent Senior instructions, we learned where we were to be and what we were to do. We elected our first class officers then: Chief Shotgun-Robert Flrostg Deputy Shotgun-Twilla Anderson, Keeper of the Infk and Holder of the Money Bags- Robert Zeis. Not long after this, there was a hayride Ca nocturnal journey via a tractor pulled wagon, filled with hay and shy childrenl. We went to Jim Al1en's farm home. Unfortunately, we Freshmen were too young to realize the purpose of a hayride, but we learned quickly. We took several tests that year. There was an I. Q. test to see if we were smart enough to be in high schoolg then there was that nice little Kuder Preference Test Cto determine our occupationsb which nobody failed, however, a surprisingly large number of students showed a preference for the following jobs: fisherman, steeplepack. bill collector, tpawn broker, taxiderm-ist and meat cutter. Certainly this showed we had a very promising class. That was the year Baby Dick Pugh started his career in high school athletics by scoring a touchdown against the varsity, while Shirley Barker and Margaret Davis were two of the reserve cheerleaders. CThat was before the days of the pla- toon system.J Just about the time school was getting dull in the second semester, Rodney Rish moved in from Dunkirk and caused some excitement among the girls. And so our freshman year came to an end. - We emerged from the comparatively obscure positions of Freshmen and found ourselves Sophomores, confronted with the many new privileges and rights. For class officers this year we chose Czarina Lois Buchhagen, Chief Commissar Comrade William Amsler and Secretary of Politburo Joanna Born, who was banish- ed to Siberia fHarding Highb at the end of the year. The annual hayride provided an adequate opportunity to try some of the tricks we had failed to learn to do as Freshmen. We went to Varra Jean Hasting's farm residence for the affair. During the year, the bugo1ogy students put on a conservation program. As the main event of the assembly, two conservative members of the class, Deadeye CPaulJ Comstock and a Doublebarrel CEverettJ Grubb, gave a backwoods corn- likker skit. They shot snakes, owls and robins, only to show later the errors of such unconservative conduct. It was a great day that mornin' in the history of stage productions. We members of the Junior class wore out the sidewalks between the high school and the McKitrick hospital to see Bob Morris, the victim of a motor scooter accident, which happened on the first morning of our third year. As Juniors we felt so good we nearly popped our buttons. Our class officers: Supersonis Missile Cprexb Everett Grubb, Proximity Fuse Weep! Ralph Zachariah, and Keeper of the Geiger Counter CSectreasJ Clair Jones, helped start our year's activities with a blast. The class sponsored the Homecoming dance and also published for the occasion a newspaper, The Homecomer, which added some moola to our class treasury. Our class attendent for Homecoming was Betty Latimer. This was a happy year, for cur football team finished the season undefeated. We also gave a Hallowe'en masquerade party at the canteen. Everett Grubb had donuts for breakfast for months after that shin-dig'.! In December the choir gave the operetta Naughty Marietta . Little did we realize that Margie Pfeiffer CMariettaJ really had such a wonderful voice. And didn't she make a cute looking boy? About the middle of February, we presented our play Jane Eyre. It was one of those memorable moments of the stage when Dolores Smith, as Jane, made a grand entrance with her diress unbuttoned down the back.
