THE RECORD 21 Class History I have just been thinking about our past four years in high school. They have gone so fast, just think, here we sit, 49 meek and serious seniors, lthping to get our diplomas. On September 7, 1938, eighty-eight shaking and peagreen freshmen waited at the doors of Littleton High School. We passed into the assembly room where Mr. Nelson, the new headmaster, read the school rules which left many a white face and shaking hand among us. We started the freshman year by electing George Magoon president, Patricia Holly, vice-president, William Magoon, secretary, and William Dane, treasurer. October 7 was the date of the Freshman Hop, a date the class will never forget. The day before the Hop, representatives of the senior class entered the silent portals of rooms 2 and 3 to inform the freshmen that we had to come dressed as little girls and boys, our costumes including hair ribbons and Eton ties. The night of the Hop the entire class paraded across the auditorium and showed our various wearing apparels. Bill Spinelli certainly created quite a riot in his short pants. The lollipops, which were passed to each freshman, were gratefully accepted. Dancing and refreshments were included on the pro- gram. In our sophomore year we settled down to real study. For class officers we elected Arthur Knight, president, Daniel Nute, vice-president, William Ma- goon, secretary, and Richardson Lewis, treasurer. The sophomores really enjoyed the Freshman Hop and were we glad we didn't have to drink milk out of a baby's bottle as some of the freshmen had tol In our junior year, we began to think seriously of earning money for our very low treasury. The junior Prom and class trip were the two objectives. The following class officers were elected: President, Charles Gallagher, vice- president, Patricia Holly, treasurer, Dorothy Maxwell, and secretary, Francese Perkins. A junior corn roast was held at the sand pit with Miss Morgan, the new English teacher from Texas, and Mr. Sommers, the new coach, as chaper- ons, a duty which they did not realize was so great. Marshmallows dipped in mustard seemed to be the main dish and later proved excellent ammunition. Pat Holly's saddle shoes were never the same again. A series of food sales added to our class fund which helped with our Junior Prom. The Prom itself was a big success. The decorations were red, white, and blue, colors which were appropriate with the times. Lloyd Rafnel's or- chestra furnished the music. During our senior year we have been as busy as privates on K. P. duty. We elected as class officers George Magoon, president, Richardson Lewis, vice- president, Dorothy Maxwell, secretary, and Winton Eastman, treasurer. The first weeks were given to discussing the Freshman Hop. The day of the Freshman Hop, the freshman girls had to curtsey and the freshman boys had to bow to all the seniors. In the evening the freshmen had to come dressed as little girls and boys, a task which was not difficult for some of them. Kay Boardman was excellent when she proposed to Mr. Sommers, much to the coachls embarrassment. Mr. Barry accepted Theresa Liberty's proposal, making Theresa blush becomingly. On October 27, the seniors held a Harvest Supper. Everyone in the class helped with Miss Cox and Mr. Glazier as advisers. Buddy Knight furnished
