CLASS HISTORY THE HISTORY OF THE FORTY-SIXTH REGIMENT In 1942, 83 recurits Joined the 46st Regiment of Marine City High School. Soon we became acquainted with the other soldiers in our regiment and elected our officers. They were John Hollana as Captain and Lawrence DeCou, Edna Scott, and Stewart Elliott as Lieutenants. In the fall of 43 after an eleven week furlough, we returned much invigorated and full of enthusiaan for a new campaign. We were wiser now and knew all the tricks, even though some of them were foul, and we tried to snow our knowledge to the people that filled our places from the year before. The officers for this year were Stewart Elliott as Captain and John Holland, Marilyn Baehr, and Louis Lozon as Lieutenants. We gave our first successful dance this year and started earning money for our senior year. In the fall of 44 we returned to the battlefield after an eleven weeks furlough in the rank of Juniors. As we took the rank of Juniors new responsibilities loomed before us. There were two crowning events this year, the J-Hop and the Junior and Senior Banquet, given by us for the passing regiment whose place we would fill the next year. Our eleven week furlough passed by too quickly. We returned forty-eight strong for our last drive, but the middle of the school year we lost one of our soldiers, Ralph Langell, and we were then only forty-seven strong. We had a victorious football team with Lawrence Taylor, Roy Dawn, Ralph Moldenhauer, David Faucher, Bill Galvin, Bill Danneels, Lawrence DeCou, John Holland, Louis Lozon, Harold Smith, and Fred Schneider on the team. We also had a victorious basketball team who went un- defeated until the last game in the District Tournaments when we lost to St. Clair. Fred Schneider, Bill Galvin, David Faucher, John Holland, Lawrence DeCou, Roy Dawn, and Lawrence Taylor were on the first team. On April 3rd and 4th we gave the Senior play, The Ghost Parade, which was a great success. We also, had some successful dances this year and sold magazines Christmas cards, and everyday cards, and the money e rned from these activities paid for our Senior trip, May 26 thru 29, len we went on a boat trip. Edna Scott was editor of the Annual this year. The officers for this year were Louis Lozon Captain and Edna Scott, Bill Danneels, and Harold Smith as Lieutenants. We are grateful to our sponsors, Mr. Pfingst and Miss Dormer, who nelped us through our last victorious campaign. As we come to an end of our victorious campaigns in Marine City High School, we think of the departing happy memories we have had and we hope that the regiments to follow will have a6 many happy memories. We look into the dawn of the future and march Out of school life, into life 1 8 school. Catherine Christy
