One rainy day while looking for something to do, we came upon an old scrap book, pages yellow VPOIH 9-Ee, d covers bulging from so many nmemoirs' In this, we knew, we would find many laughs and just as many memories In a section headed WSchool Dazen we came upon class pictures and newspaper clippings a record of our high school career If anyone had looked for us after that, they would have found us buried deep in the past There we are all 17 of us' That was in l9h6, and we had selected as class officers Holly Clayson, President, Donald Conner, Vice-President, and wands Corwln, Secretary Treasurer When we had organized as the Freshman Class, Mrs Margaret Whitbourne advised us, and Alice Adams represented us in Student Council Nothing big happened that year unless you can call collecting weekly dues and selling candy and hats big That year was made up mostly of studies and fun And there is the Class of '50 as Sophomores! Although we lost one member Howard Garling, we were joined by Frances Petrillo and Lucille Harvey from St Rose and Pauline Payne who had been over from England for only a year Robert Opdyke was with us for a while but left shortly to enter the service Mary E Meyers led us in all our activities, and she was supported by Betty Semmel, Donald Conner and Alice Adams Lucille Harvey spoke for us in Student Council It was an honor for the whole class when Mary Elizabeth was chosen as probationary member of the National Honor Society Because our school was considered the most active in the county in Junior Red Cross work, Mary Shanks was chosen to attend the national convention in Massachusetts The outstanding projects of our grand old Sophomore year includedour Christmas dance, the ham dinner, and the selling of candy at basketball games Look at that picture! Jun1ors, it says' How well we remember that eventful year In September we found that we had lost three members Holly Clayson, Rosemarie Krebbeks, and Bernard O'Dea, but we were jolned by Mary Barnes from Tonawanda Mary returned to her former school later in the year Our first act was to elect our class officers Ruth Barber, President, Alice Andrews, Vice President, Lucille Harvey, Donald Conner, won a scholarsh1p to the N Y S Music Camp which Alice Adams had attended the Previous summer Alice Andrews was chosen to attend Girls' State and Donald Yopp, Boys' State In June, at Student Council elections Alice Adams was made President for the year 19b9 SO The most outstanding events of that year were the round and square dance with Rex Arnold and His Royal Hangers providing the music, a ham dinner for the firemen, and the Junlor Prom which was held Vay 6 with Howe Lewis and his orchestra As we turn the page, what do we see but the picture of the Class of 'SO as Seniors' That was a wonderful year with never a dull moment After Dohna Acor and Betty Judd joined us, our class contained nineteen members Our leaders that year were Alice Andrews, President, Donald Conner, Vice-President, Lucille Harvey, Secretary, Alice Adams, Treasurer and Mary E Meyers, Student Council HSPPSBGHT-aiiive We started the year by selling magazine subscriptions Next we sold Christmas cards and stationery The Senior Play, nliss Chatterbox,W was presented November h and what good times we did have with that' Then came the memorable Senior Ball, the high l1ght of our social events At Easter, we went to Washington and spent five lively days viewing the h1storical sites of this great city Four nights were spent losing sleep and painting the town Our last group picture 19 grave old seniors in thelr caps and gowns with diplomas in their hands' This was the moment we had been work1ng so hard to achieve Although we had a noticable shortage of boys, we proved ourselves outstanding not only scholastically, but socially, in all four years of high school But where would we have been without the guidance of Mrs Whitbourne, our advisor, and the support of our teachers, friends in the school and community, and parents, who so willingly gave of their time and talents Our heartiest thanks went out to them for all they had given us we knew, as we took a last look at the familiar classrooms and faces, we would never forget the happy days in our Alma Mater Lima High School Class Motto T0 THE STARS THROUGH DIFFICULTIES C1885 Flowers RED AND WHITE ROSES C1355 Cglors MAROON AND WHITE 10 4:le:ILl4l' 1 an '.
