FRESHMEN .. ovemow CLASSES Now that our first year in Ligonier High School is ata close, we of the Class of 1949 are beginning to review our past year and occasion- ally we must laugh at ourselves for getting lost between Room 2 and Room 3, for quaking in our slippers at the possibilities of an initiation, and for many comic and embarrassing positions in which we have found ourselves. ln looking back we have also discovered many things of which we can be proud. Our record in the Curtis Magazine Campaign has set a new high for Ligonier High School, we have contributed generously of our members to the football and basketball squads, to the band, to assembly programs, to clubs, and to the Moun- taineer staff. We believe we have done well. lt all started a few short weeks after we had unexpectedly overpopulated the building when, by order of those omnipotent Seniors who control the activities of the Lowly Frosh, we appeared in scrambled-up clothing: girls in pigtails and boys with earrings to receive our fate. The auditorium was rent by piercing shrieks of pain although, strangely enough, there were no fatalities. Feeling somewhat cocky at having survived our first great test, we determined to show that our class, the largest in years, was also one of the finest. Accordingly, we placed at Coach Abele's disposal a giant squad from which was to emerge a number of fine football players in- cluding one letterman, Edward Boyd. Then, too, we gave Mike Heller, Alastair MacDonald, and Peewee Breniser as athletic managers and Patty Riggs as a peppy cheerleader. Then, when basketball season rolled around, we had one Varsity player, Jake Burns, and many mem- bers including especially Bob Burns, Steve Tobias, Dick Menoher, and Bill Kovach on the J. V. team. lt is of our Curtis Magazine Campaign, how- ever, that we are particularly proud. Fred Haug- er was our highest salesman, Bill Miller came in Mount aineer Shirley, Jack, Charles, and Elvin decide that perhaps their fears of initiation were unnecessary since they all had such a swell time. OFFICERS President Shirley Snyder Vice President Jack Wallace Secretary Charles Graham Treasurer . , Elvin Breniser second, and all together we ran up a total of over eight hundred dollars. But our activities were not all work. With the aid of the faculty advisers our officers, Shirley Snyder, Jack Wallace, Charles Graham, and Peewee Breniser, arranged a party at which everyone enioyecl himself. Also there was the party the Seniors gave in the spring to make up for having initiated us in the fall. Freshmen homerooms presented interesting assembly pro- grams: Room 6 gave a pantomime with Mary Weltz narrating, Room 3 had a baby show, Room 4 took us on a trip to the zoo, Room 2 dramatized several short skits and Edith Boerner captivated us all with her piano selection, Clair de Lune. ln the years to come the Class of '49 will continue to enjoy their high school experiences, until they have earned their diplomas and will be sorry to leave L.
