—— — — $ —$ — —— ——- History Around the first. part of September in nineteen hundred and thirty some fifty of the so ealled green Freshmen entered the portals of Maroa High School to further develop their mental abilitv. They were weleomed into Thigh School with the annual Wiener Roast, held at Maxine Stiver’s home. The boys were lucky for Mr. Menke put a ban on all serious hazing. For our first year John Sterling was chosen Presi- dent, John Meador Vice President, Doris Carney Seeretary, and Twain Fort Treasurer, Our advisors were Mr. Norton and Miss Garrison. The elass colors picked were erimson and cream, the flower was the American Beanty Rose, and the motto was ‘‘Over, under or threagh; but never arowid.’’ Nery the end of that year we moved into this spacious building from the over-erowded old building. The class helped to send the Seniors off at-the All School Pienie. The next year forty eight students entered school as slightly dignified Sophomores but we soon found that we were about as bad as the Freshmen. Our advisors this year were Mr. Keves and Mr. Wolfe. During the year Mr. Wolfe’s Home Room worked ont the basie part of the present Point System. The officers this year were Cathryn Berry President, Bob Stoutenborongh Vice President, Viola Wendling Seerct- ary, and Charles Carney Treasurer.

The elass enjoyed several get- togethers this year, one was in the form of a Kid Party at the High School Gym, another was the Halloween Party at Pauline Tarson’s home. A Sophomore Weiner Roast and the yearly School Pienie were also taken in.
