Class of 1962 In September, 1958, we entered high school, 210 strong. Althouj; a bit scared, we were eager to get going on our new adventure. Und the leadership of Geoff Demong, president; Susie Smith, vice-presiden Ausma Briedis, secretary; and Chris Chapman, treasurer, we mac enough money selling refreshments at football games to sponsor oi highly successful Freshman Dance. Most of us got used to high scho and realized that much hard work, as well as many good times, Is ahead. Moving on, we were now sophomores, and the stigma of the “Frost was at last gone. We elected Dave Huffaker as president, Susie Smit again as vice-president, Bobbie Brucken as secretary, and Geoff Demor as treasurer. Our coffer was full, and with the funds from a car was! it was more than enough to sponsor the “Swiss Holiday,” our sophomoi dance. When September, 1960 rolled around, we found that we were £ long last upperclassmen. The junior year promised to be the best ye With Dick Hunt as our president, Laurie Reynolds our vice-presiden Barb Gray our secretary, and Geoff Demong our treasurer, we undei took an ambitious work program to augment our treasury. We sol Katydids in school and refreshments at home football games. Th girls had a bake sale. Almost the entire treasury was used to mak our Junior Prom the fabulous success that it was. Our “Mardi Gras theme was kept a secret for nearly four years and proved to be one c the best themes in F-M’s history. By some miracle, we all made i through English Regents and looked forward anxiously to our senio year. As mighty seniors we returned to F-M and prepared to have “blast.” We found, however, that we were in for more than fur College Boards, term papers, and college applications provided head aches for all of us. Using money earned from the sale of Golde Crumbles and from our senior auction, we financed our gala Senio , , .... , , Ball.
