Class History !cont'd1 What trying times were yielded by the eighth term!! We had a patriotic party on George Washington's birthday after school. Everything went along rather smoothly. We played wink and nod and basketball. Our lunch was delightful, but the amateur show staged impromptu was ghastly. Especially the morning after when it was discovered that we had accidently pulled the stage curtain off its trol- ley. Mrs. Casey and Mrs. Higley, our homeroom guides, vowed never to sponsor us again. We apoligized, but they haven't forgotten. Lee Carnahan, Tom Miekle, Vivienne Morley, and Joan Payton also signed up in time to perk up the party. Well, at last! Now we will get down to brass tacks. We elected officers in our ninth term, and this time we meant business. Those elected were: Avis Stephen- son, president, Tom Meikle, vice-president, Joan Payton, secretary, John Bray- ton, treasurer, and Mr. Griffith, sponsor. Miss Powers and Mr. D'Onofrio took care of our grade cards for us. But what a blow-just when we thought we would be to- gether in the old study hall, our dreams went up in smoke. The other classes had grown so large there wasn't room for us. Delores Schaad and Charles White heard so much of the good work we were doing that they thought it would be to their ad- vantage to join our union. This was also the year that we would choose our elective subjects and become members of the glee club. The tenth term was not very exciting. For one reason, there weren't any new faces to answer roll call which was called by Miss Lorenz and Mrs. Sebastian. We again elected officers, and they were: Jim Mealy, president, Gay Bentley, vice- presidentg Chuck White, secretary, Vivienne Morley, treasurer. Mr. Johnson was our sponsor. Defying tradition, we had a dance in our sophomore year which was before unheard. We also originated our class anthem We Are the Class of '52. The eleventh term was one never to be forgotten. Juniors at last! We sold everything from pencils to license plates to salt and pepper shakers in order to make enough to take the Seniors to Prom. May 11 finally came, we had reached our goal, and everyone turned out at the Pick-Ohio Hotel in their best finery for the big event. Mr. Geaman and Miss Faust harbored us through that year with Jim Mealy. president, Duke Wellington, vice-president, Helen Durig, secretary, and John Bray- ton, treasurer. Three people-Jim Mealy, Viv Morley, and Carole Scott were chosen for the National Honor Society by the faculty. We picked our class rings and pre- sented a three-act play entitled Lights Out. Harry Meikle came but, alas, only to leave at the end of the year to join the navy. What does the navy have that wc don't have? How busy our twelfth term was-so crowded with plans, ideas, and work necessary for the publishing of the yearbook. After being elected president for the third successive term, Jim Mealy said, Looks like you're stuck with me! Jim Ochsenhirt assisted him as vice-president. Avis Stephenson typed many a letter as secretary, and Ruth Heinl, treasurer, spent much time on our finances. Mr. Cham- bers and Miss Locke were called on to shepherd us through a rough term. We were together under Mr. Cauffield's watchful eye, but we surely gave him a merry chase for we were usually anywhere but in the homeroom. Graduation pictures were taken, name cards and invitations were picked out, received, given out, and sent. The office practice class, composed of senior girls, collected news and printed the Liberty Bell with the assistance of Miss Powers. The National Honor Society Ban- quet was attended by seven members Of our class. Three from last year and four new ones: Janet Fisher, Ruth Heinl. Joan Payton, and Jim Ochsenhirt. How nice it was to be guests at prom instead of the hosts. And then our preamble was true- together we graduated. PAGE TWENTY-THREE
