Class History Mary Jane Hutchings, Treasurer; Art Willard, President; Theodora Christ, Secretary; Bob Dougan, Vice-President. These four were chosen as repre- sentatives to guide their class through their last year before entering high school. The Class of “55” began the new school year with the total of 36 members. On September 18, 1950 we held our first class meeting during which we elected officers who were: President, ART WILLARD; Vice-President, BOB DOUGAN; Secretary, THEODORA CHRIST; and Treasurer, MARY JANE HUTCHINGS. Mr. Schroeder was in charge as our class sponser. Our first undertaking as a party was in the form of a hayriae on the 9th of October. The class used MR. DENNIS' tractor and wagon. Refreshments fol- lowed. To celebrate Christmas we exchanged gifts and had refreshments afterward. It took place in the Home Economic’s room. A roller skating party was enjoyed at the Palomar skating rink in Lansing. We had a very enjoyable year.

Tom, Kay, and Barb Look, A Freshman Who Shaves—we really grow men around this part of the country. Class History The officers elected by us at the beginning of our “frosh” year were as follows: President, SALLY HOLFUS; Vice-President, TOM COE; Secretary, JERRY CLARK; Treasurer, BEVERLY GINTHER. We began the year by having a hayride which occured October 12, beginning at 7:30 P. M. at the high school. JIMMIE ROWLEY furnished the tractor and wagon. A weiner roast held at ARDITH BROWN’S climaxed the hayride. Our class this year was the largest in the school. The enrollment was 49. Our class was well represented on the football and basketball teams. School Was Never Like This! Vacation time and fishing trips provide many pleasant memories during the long winter months.

Class History At the first of the year we held our first class meeting in which we elected Class Officers. Those elected were: President, LOIS CORTRIGHT; Vice-President, LUCILLE ANTCLIFF; Treas- urer, LINDA FUNKHOUSER; and Secretary, ELAINE BLACKLEDGE. On October 25, 1950 we went on a hayride. We invited guests from the 8th and 9th grades. We drove around for a while, then came back to the Home Economics building to have refresh- ments. We then went to LINDA FUNK- HOUSER’S place for a weiner roast. MR. and MRS. LAKE were our guests. GUY PARKER and MR. SCHULZE drove the tractors. We had three new members in the 7th grade, JUDY MANSOR, CHARLES FOWLER, and LARRY PIPER. JUDY came here from Owosso. CHARLES is from Roscommon. LARRY hails from Bath. The 7th grade girls had a Christmas party the 20th of December. We exchanged gifts and re- freshments were served. We divided up into three committees; they were: decoration, enter- tainment, and refreshment committees. The decoration committee had the tables fixed up in bright colors of red and green. For refreshments we had sandwiches, cake, jello, and popcorn. CLASS OFFICERS Secretary, Elaine Blackledge; Treasurer, Linda Funkhouser; Presi- dent, Lois Cortright; Lucille Antcliff, Vice-President was absent at the time this photo was taken. Evidently the 7th grade has a decided weakness for girls.
