SENIOR CLASS HISTORY FRESHMAN YEAR On September 5, 1944 an enthusiastic group of twenty-three freshmen met to begin their long struggle through four stormy years of high school. There was much shouting and yelling but it was decided we wanted a firm class advisor, as we wanted to start out on the right foot, so Mr. Arnott was elected. Some confused and uproarious minutes later the class officers had been elected: Bob Busch, president: Dorothy Artis, vice-presidentg David Quinn, Treasurer: and Claire Elsey, secretary. The honor of representing the fresh- men in the Student Council was given to Florence Heath and Ed Schten. After being trampled by the Sophomores and exhibited before the whole school, we were officially freshmen. In February, to celebrate the opening of the Ross Theater, we had a class party. After a pot luck dinner at the school we attended the first picture of the new theater. As freshmen we were too busy with our studies to sponsor any high school parties, how- ever, we attended most of the parties that were sponsored by the other classes. We celebrated the end of our freshman year by our annual school picnic at Gravel Lake. SOPHOMORE YEAR Upon returning the next fall as sophomores, Miss Lawhun was chosen as the lucky one to be our class advisor. With a little more order than was demonstrated in our Freshman year, Claire Elsey was elected as president, Jack Harris, vice-presidentg Lois Ann Cree, secretary, and Russell Morlan, treasurer. Again Florence Heath and Ed Schten were the chosen ones to represent our class in the Student Council. We discovered our class had lost four members: Betty Brown, Roger Smith, Vernon Schmidtendorff, Margaret Taylor and gained two new members, Lois Ann Cree, and Iona Farquhar. The first item on the calendar for our Sophomore year was to humble the cocky fresh- men, but we showed a little compassion towards them by giving a combined freshmen and sophomore party on the night of initiation. The next event was the annual Christrnas party, for which we and the Juniors combined forces and matched wits. It was a very nice party with a cotton snow man and a multi-colored ceiling. An experience we all remember is our serving at the Junior-Senior banquet. Wonder- ously there was no soup spilled down anybody's neck. The last event was the annual picnic at Gravel Lake. JUNIOR YEAR We returned to M. H. S. to take up our studies and activities much wiser and worldly as Juniors. At our first class meeting, which was conducted in a most parliamentry manner, Mr. Hungerford was selected as our class advisor. The class officers were: Russell Morlan, president, Iona Farquar, vice-president: Florence Heath, treasurer, and Evelyn Ritter, Sec- retary. Roger Anderson and Dorothy Artis were elected as Student Council representatives. Our class was one member smalle,r than the preceding year. Bob Busch had joined the Armed forces. Our 'first major undertaking of the year was a skating party at the Three Rivers Roller- skating rink, exclusively to Marcellians. Although there were quite a few black and blue
