Qjioploomoro Clary fbkfory On September 20, 1928, at Union High School, thirty-four pupils, who had graduated from the eighth grade at the Lewisburg school and the surrounding district schools, assembled, very eager to prepare for future life. After the arrangement of these seats were made, we found the roll as follows: Mildred Ball, Don Bittle, Ruth Blankenship, Chester Brown, Spencer Brown, Evelyn Bunger, Richard Bunger, Helen Coates, Kenneth Coates, Mildred Crowe, Thelma Cullers, Susan Deisher, Leland Deschene, John Duke, Oscar Eby, Dean Farra, Elden Good, Hubert Hapner, Jerold Hapner, Dorothy Heeter, Ferne Heeter, joan Hoerner, Kathryn jordan, Keith Miller, Lowell McCastle, justin Paul, Basil Pease, Mildred Schreel, Loran Smith, Ross Swank, Hazel Thomas, Lavora Troxel, Paul Unger, and Joseph Via. During the year Kenneth Coates, Basil Pease, joseph Via and Oscar Eby found it necessary to help out on the farm and Ruth Blankenship joined the New Paris school, but to help fill in their places, Robert Mason was added to the roll, making a total of thirty. A Weiner roast at Imes' grove ended the Freshman year. When work was begun for the second year, it was discovered that Mildred Crowe had joined the Verona school, Evelyn Bunger had fallen by the wayside, and Mildred Ball had joined the Mt. Notre Dame Academy, Reading, Ohio. john Lindsey, Wilbur' Moore and Rosemary Zeigler were found to have joined our ranks, making a total of thirty. About the middle of the year, Lewis Boyer and Pearl Boyer joined the class, but later in the year Lewis Boyer and Helen Coates left us. So here we are today, thirty strong, marching straight for victory with our class officers: President, Elden Good, Vice-President, Justin Paul, Secretary-Treasurer, Jerold Hapner. We are hoping to add our bit to the reputation and honor of Union High School. -ELDEN GOOD, '32, Twenty-five

Contrary to tradition, these Freshmen were not bowed down by their greenness, but possessed almost unlimited pep and a great thirst after knowledge. The class roll numbered forty- two, which was later raised to forty-three by the advent of Lucille Shivedecker. When the class met the following year fSophomores nowj Beryl Buehner, Harry Cullers, Robert Izor, Homer Miller, and Walter Henne had deserted the ranks, and Virgil Cullers had joined the Silly Sophsf' making thirty-nine in all. During the year, Mary Blankenship, Martha Rice, Glenn Steiner, and Grace Steiner dropped out. At the end of the Sophomore year, the class contained thirty- five. Back at Union in September, 1929, only thirty-three jolly Juniors reportedg Mable Heck and Nanna Lipscomb being no longer among those present. However, a new voice answered the roll call, that of Russel Weisenbarger. From the swiftly thinning class, four more deserted, Knot Ab- shear, Clarence Shisler, Ruth Tamplin, and John Wiles. Now the thirty Juniors are going strong toward their goal, Graduation, and trying to do their part to make Dear Old Union a better place. -MERNA BROWN, '31. Page Trwenfy-f0u1'

Some were green and some not so green, having visited Union Hi enough to know what was expected of them. Miss Snorf and Miss Press speedily took all of them under their motherly wings and soon made them feel at home. Then they began to get acquainted with everyone and in sizing up their class they found the number to be forty-one as follows: Wanza Barnheiser, Marion Mason, Harold Bierly, Dewitt Thomas, Vir- ginia Poston, Pauline Black, Phoebe Bixler, Delbert james, Henry Seemann, Marston Myers, Jerald- ine Bunger, Juanita Wiles, Mildred Craig, Sarah Alice Floyd, Paul Imel, Thurmon Schreel, Carl Whipp, Virginia Lindsey, Velma Steiner, Dorthea Hoff, Edrie Shook, Berlin Miller, Carl Swank, Dale Saul, Roy Buehner, Adrian Henn, Clifford Miller, Claude Albert, Ralph Kasserman, John Heck, Dorothy Lipscomb, Eleanor Unger, Miriam Wilhelm, Eunice Smith, Helen Swartzel, Bertha Parks, Florence Imes, Etta Hartman, Glenn Wysong, Howard Grill, and Corwin Matthews. As the year progressed Corwin Matthews left aad Edward Schwob took his place. In a short time Evelyn Kline, Loretta Steiner, and Arthur Crouse from neighboring schools, fell into line. Near Halloween, when the upperclassmen were planning their Halloween parties, the Fresh- men, not wanting to be left out of the fun, rallied their forces and planned for a party, too. They marched in grand array toPhoebe Bixler's home where they had a bewitching time until junior ghosts and goblins frightened them home. Then as the time of the year drew near to organize their class, they elected the following offi- cers: Marston Myers, president, Sarah Alice Floyd, vice-president, Marion Mason, secretary, and Virginia Poston, treasurer.
