From 1895 until the present time, three schools have served as high schools: from 1895 to 1903, the second tloor of what is now known as the Central School, from 1904 to 1923, the Betty Zane School, from 1923 until the present time, the Charles R. Shreve High School. This year, plans are being :nade for the construction ot modern, well-equipped buildings, includ- ing a new high school. In this splendid program for the continuation of the growth of our schools, may the spirit ot Ferry High, which has always been present in all our endeavors, continue to be the guiding influence in the new school ot tomorrow. 1, -rg! xl SW rwfd 24 ' Y k q s 9 3,21 E Q f ii ' 1 s M P' i W A, 1 K ' E 35 4 X an-.au 'ping s sn- yg Nw-Q...-., L4 5 E' f HI 11 1 E ' M5 if E 'Q QI, mga 4 uh X X 1 My an , 1 3 Q , E z Q - w ft M ,.

Looking back with tear and smile, I know we all can say That these tour years have been worthwhile To help us on our way. Though change will come to Ferry High As each gains his ambition, Still as the years go rolling by, We'll keep its fine tradition. It seems that we have just begun, But now we say goodbye, Remembering all the work and fun We had at Ferry High. Facing now the atomic age, May our aim in life be high. May we have the strength and courage, That for us men need not die. Thelma E.

Now the seniors began the last chapter ot High School Days , so to speak. The be- ginning of school meant the organization of clubs: Girl Reserves, Home Economics Club, Hi-Y, Dra- matic Club, Smoothies, Spanish Club, Junior Classical League, and all the rest, of whatever name or origin. Did we say Senior Girl Reserves? We found that there ain't no such thing any more. lt was the Y-Teens! Right off the bat, the faculty had a meeting-maybe it was to warn our teachers of those rip-roaring freshmen, or was it to warn them of those roaring seniors? We wonder! Our first home-room program-and we were taught all about parliamentary procedure, but the procedure that followed wasn't exactly parliamentary! Along with all the rest of the firsts that come at the beginning of a school year came the first football game: it was with one of our favorite foes-Union. In the next game, the Bulldogs really got the run-around and ended up in the bone yard. But alas and alack, the next week when we played Wheeling, it was our turn to be on the losing end. lt hurt: but, along with the sweet, we took the bitter. Sure, and it was another faculty meeting that popped up. We wondered whom or what our dear teachers talked about this time. Thus ended the first period of a nine-rounder, in a clinch. Would the student body of M. F. H. S, come out of this fight intact? We wondered, but all we could do was wait and see.

Mr. Steckel said, and Senior Home Room l was right ' was going to be like this year at Senior Home Room a meeting of the Eastern Ohio Teachers' Association. Good old E. 0. T. A.! NOVEMBER October dissolved into the chilly and frosty month of November. Boots and overcoats made their appearance, and, along with the snow, we found puddles of water to wade through inside the school door. As now we were accustomed to the manners, ways, and boredom ot school, our thoughts be- came more directly concerned with extracurricular activities and-dates? Our first date of the month was with Steubenville on the gridiron. lt did not turn out to be too much for us, though. We matched the Big Reds on every pass and move they made. The score was a tie. Fitting right in with the autumn was the Girl Reserve semi-formal Harvest Moon Ball. We did manage to get in at an early hour. Or should we just say, an hour ? American Education Weel: came in around here somewhere, and the participants of the district Prince-of-Peace Declamation Contest were selected. Our school was well-represented in this selection, and we had a county winner. As if we didn't have enough trouble, report cards came out for the second time. Oh, bury me not, on the lone prairie,- DECEMBER With Christmas just around the corner, shopping had to be done, the fellows had to get dates for the Christmas dance, the girls had to get new formals for ditto , school work had to be finished up, and-wouldn't you know it?-Mrs. Gwynne insisted on our giving our book reports before the vacation. Besides all of this, we had basketball games with Youngstown Boardman, Wheeling Central, and East Liverpool. The results were halt and half-won two and lost two. To almost everyone, the most important event of this month was the Glee Club Christmas program. This year's was the best of all, and all have been tops. To wind up school fittingly before the Christmas vacation, the Glee Clubs lived up to tradition and caroled in the halls. their pictures taken. During the vacation, seniors had appointments with Pop Koerber to get Pop had to buy three new cameras during those few days! Good-bye, 1946! JANUARY Having nearly recovered from Christmas turkey and New Year's festivities, filled the halls of Perry High. You could surely tell that Santa Claus had been saw so many new hats and coats and shirts and ties and yo-yo's in your life. lt until things had tamed down. Our basketball team continued playing according to schedule. As a certain sports writer would say, Sometimes they're cold, and sometimes they're hot, but we'll have to admit that our boys are a pretty good gang. students once again around. You never wasn't long, though, POP KOERBER Ferrian Photographer A CALE DAR There comes a time in every man's lite-and our time was January 15. You've guessed it- exams. This was a time ot chaos and disillusionment. lnto each lite some rain must tall, but we surely didn't expect thunder and lightning, too. This year the Dramatic Club sold programs at the basketball games-a new idea and a good one. We hope that it gets its new recording machine that the members ot the club have been working tor. Well, considering it all, we got ott to a pretty good start. Don't you think so? FEBRUARY The most memorable day ot this month turned out to be the tenth. That was the day we were.dis- missed because ot cold weather. The only complaint we had was that we didn't know about this until alter we had crawled out ot a warm, cozy bed. five senior girls were chosen to brain themselves through the D. A. R. citizenship test this month, and the boys got a chance to show their hand on the tourteenthg it was Valentine's Day', angd all that ,we heard during the whole day was poetry. This month was really a test. The Pepsi-Cola Scholarship Test batted quite a tew seniors around our Hall ot Learning -101. The main attraction on one ot the assemblies this month was one ot our new teachers, Mr. Monda. No, he didn't speakp he yelled! Atter that assembly, the cheering at our basketball games really showed improvement. Something new had been added-the Monda touch. Mrs. Tessa Webb visited our school and gave in the study hall and library a lecture on poetry. We regret that, because of the lack ot an auditorium, not all our students heard her. Along with all ot our other Heartaches , the calendar was even against us, tor Washington's Birthday came on Saturday this year, cheating us out oi a holiday! MARCH This month turned out to be one ot the busiest ot the year. Time was beginning to creep up on us, and the seniors were just starting to realize that their last year was nearly gone. Twenty-nine pupils ot the senior class had a chance to show how smart they were by taking the Senior Scholarship Test. Alter the test, many realized that they could have been a little more,-shall we say, attentive?- during their days ot learning. The American Legion Essay contest was right down l'erry's alley this year. We had tive county winners and three district winners. This was a bad monthx to be ott your guard in the halls. The reason tor this is quite understandable. The I-'errian statt was making two deadlines and was not responsible tor any ot its actions. The Band Mothers did a swell job in sponsoring the Saturday night dances, and the band banquet, which was held March 25, was a great success. Did you ever hear the joke about the man who had the ilu . . . ? lt wasn't a ioke in Ferry this year. Over six hundred were out ot the schools, and consequently we had a rather sick vacation. The Hi-Y sweetheart dance was about the last thing on the calendar tor the month. Between the Elks' donating their hall tor the dance and Charlie Donovan's groovy playing, the boys had the time ot their lives. APRIL Ah-'twas sprink! , the windows were opened, and to our ears tlowed sweet music trom the throats ot song birds and our glee club preparing tor the annual spring concert. Trees stirred trom their winter sleep and donned their bright spring ensemble, while the fields became green with grazs and spring tlowers scented the air. lt's too nice to go to school! The Variety Show, presented by the school orchestra, was one ot superb entertainment. For some ot the students oi M. F. H. S. who showed scholastic ability, school service, leadership, and character, the iaculty and upper third ot the senior class showed their approbation by making them members ot the National Honor Society. April 23 saw twenty members ot the senior class and nine ot the iunior class invested with this honor. For a last get together, the senior class party served its purpose well. Fun and trolic reigned as each senior home room presented titteen minutes ot original program, typical ot the participants. Thus ended the eighth period ot a nine-rounder! the score was pretty well established, about all that was leit was the Rets' decision. Make it good, teachers! MAY A stranger would think that good old M. F. H. S. was a pigeonhole, judging'trom the way all the students were tlitting around trom place to place. Maybe it was the expectancy ot graduation tor the seniors and the coming summer tor the underclassmen. But whatever the real cause, we're suje that the ever-increasing activity ot this month could have had a lot to do with the excitement. The time tor the .lunior-Senior Prom linally arrived, at which a better time no one ever had. To the seniors, this was the high light ol the year, always to be remembered tor its significance as a climax to one's lasting impressions. Time marched on, marked by our untorgettably happy, yet sad, Class Day, Baccalaureate, Senior Picnic, and tinally, much too soon tor most ot us, the end-Commencement! Even the boys teit a little sorry now, though they wouldn't admit it. But boys and girls alike, we all regret our departure from the somewhat homely, but beloved, walls ot Ferry High.

THE NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY One of the highest honors which may be earned by a pupil during his high-school career is election to the National Honor Society. A local chapter was installed in this school in 1931. Membership is based upon scholarship, leadership, service, and character. Fifteen per cent of the graduating class is elected the second semester of the senior year, and five per cent of the junior class, the second semester of the junior year. Those in the upper third of the class scholastically are eligible to be considered for membership, The standing in leadership is determined by total activity points, while the Service and character rating is based upon combined pupil-teacher ranking on seven standards of character development of the eligible pupils as follows: l.

ENSEMBLES There were two ensembles this year chosen from the glee clubs, a girls' ensemble and a boys' ensemble. These groups together presented a very inters esting program for the Triadelphia High School assembly in March. They each sang two numbers in the annual spring glee-club concert. VOCAL CLINIC Seventy students from the glee clubs were selected to participate in the Ohio Valley Music Educators' Clinic, which was held in Wheeling, Friday, Feb- ruary 2l. Noble Cain, a nationally known director, conducted the three-hour clinic and rehearsal. When the four hundred students representing several Ohio Valley schools assembled, the eight songs which had been partially learned in the home school were interpreted, and some very beautiful vocal music was enjoyed. All students participating agreed that the clinic was most helpful and inspirational. SPRING CONCERT The annual glee-club concert was again presented in the auditorium of the First Presbyterian Church. The concert was given two nights this year, instead of one as it has been in the past. Two hundred titty-four students participated in a well-planned program of both sacred and secular music. A girls' chorus of two hundred twenty-five opened the concert with the ever-impressive The Lord's Prayer. This chorus sang four sacred numbers with piano and organ accompaniment. The girls' glee clubs each sang several numbers, the boys presented six numbers, and a boys' ensemble and a girls' ensemble also pleased the audience with their selections. The concert closed with the mixed chorus of seventy voices singing many favorites. The piano accompanists were Ruth Hartford, Sonia Hlihoff, and Mary Louise Bremer. Miss Leonore Lemmler of the high school faculty played the organ. The entire concert was under the direction of Miss Ruth Bailey, vocal super- visor of the schools.

He is one of Martins Ferry High's own graduates with three letters in, football. ln 1929, he graduated from Wash- ington and Jefferson College with three varsity letters. After serving nine years as assistant coach, he has reached the top spot-head football coach of his alma mater. Since 1943, when he attained that spot, the Riders have boasted a record of twenty-nine wins, two ties, and nine losses. He has had two Ohio Valley Conference championships in his four years as head coach in football. He is also our track coach and co- athletic director. Good luck, Coach Thomas, we hope you keep that fine record always in the win column! Mr. Weisgerber has been with Ferry High Schocn for some time, promoting clean sportsmanship, parti- cularly among the underclassmen. He is freshman basketball coach, assistant track coach, and assistant football coach. Mickey also teaches biology and world history. We all know how great a sacrifice he has made, and we, of Perry High, congratulate him for work well done. Mr. Gartrell, who came to us from Sebring High in 1945, brought a record of many victories with him. Blondie has coached five years besides serving in the Armed Forces of our country. As head basketball coach and assistant football coach, he has accomplished much in the promotion of sports in Ferry, During his two years as l erry's head basketball mentor, Blondie has won thirty games and has lost just twelve. This is a record worthy of envy by any basketball coach, regardless of the size of the school. Mr. Manson came to Martins Ferry High School in September, 1946, after being discharged from the United States Navy as a lieutenant li. g.l. He graduated from Centenary College, where he played as a regular in football, basketball, and baseball for three years. On the football eleven, he was a halfhack, on the basket- ball team, center lcaptain for two yearsl, and on the baseball nine, pitcher. Before entering the Navy, Mr. Manson was head football and basketball coach at Dillonvale. Compliments of the FINNEY'S Quality Laundering and Dry Cleaning-Bpt. 710 ROBERT lBobl Mcl ARl.AND Co-Captain-Halfback For three years, Bob earned a letter as a regular on the Rider squad. Always cool and collected, Bob played most of his games under a handicap, a bad ankle injury, which he received in the first game. While he was good on the offensive, his defensive playing was exceptional. Rarely, if ever, did an op- ponent get by him. When he hit, whomever he hit knew it. As long as Bob was on the tield, the fans could look for a well-fought, well-played game. VIRGIL fFleal OANCEA Co-Captain-End Flea Oancea, so-called because of his 137 pounds, has played a regular end on the Rider squad tor three years. Virgil was a great receiver, which, along with his de- fensive playing, has given him a place on the All-Eastern-Ohio team. Virgil played only tive games this year because of serious ill- ness. ln the game, his never-give-up spirit kept the team fighting to the last whistle. We are all sure that the' fans and the team will miss that bundle of pep , whose fight- ing spirit has pulled more than one game from defeat to victory. FOOTBALL GAMES ROUNDUP Martins Perry opened the season with a game with Union. As both teams were making their debut, a few mix-ups on plays occurred, but Ferry came out on the long end of a 6-2 score. Our next opponent was Bridgeport, which had the best team it has had in many years and, of course, was all keyed up to break that record of over a score ot losses to Martins Perry. However, when it crossed the city limits, it was beaten and went home after the game sobbing to the tune of 26-12. The Purple Riders made their next appearance against Wheeling. They drew first blood when they scored in the first quarter. Behind 6-O at the opening of the second quarter, Wheeling really began playing good ball until, when the game ended, the score was l3-6 in Wheeling's favor. In the following game, Triadelphia handed the Riders an unexpected 13-6 set-back. Triadelphia tallied in the second and third quarters, Martins Perry, in the third quarter only. The Riders put on a good show in whipping a talented Mingo combine 19-6. With Mingo ahead 6-0 until the last quarter, the Purple turned the heat on to register three goals and one extra point. The Big Reds from Bellaire visited the Riders next, and Perry added one more loss to its record. ln a thrilling, hard-fought game, the Reds man- aged to cross the goal only once, together with an extra point, this made the final score Bellaire 7- Martins Ferry 0. Then came the game Perry had been looking forward to-that with East Liverpool. With the stadium overcrowded, fans watched the Riders stop the heavy Potters many times in the first half just short of pay dirt. It looked like a scoreless tie until a jump pass was intercepted by Ferry and carried to the four-yard line, Where the Riders split the Potter line and walked through for six points. The Steubenville Big Reds came to Perry boasting victories over some of the state's best teams and expecting to walk away with Martins Perry, but the game ended '1-7. Our homecoming game was played on November 8 with Linsly. The game was fast, and the two teams were rather evenly matched, but Linsly's Cadets managed to fight their way to a 6-0 win. When Mansfield brought one of the best football teams in the state to Martins Ferry, everybody was hoping for an upset, one in which the Riders could get the nod, but a good little team just couldn't beat a good big team, and Mans- field won a 32-14 victory. ' DAVISON'S FLORISTS lf lt's Flowers, Davison's Have lt. ARTHUR lArtl BRUNEY Guard and Tackle Art comes from a long line of Bruneys who have all played tootball. Art has been a regular in the Ferry line-up for two years. Ha has played both at guard and tackle, whore he has done exceptionally well. Brun was another one ot the team's morale-builders, and you can bet that, while he was playing, the team was in good spirits and trying its best. BEN CAPPELLETTI Center Last year Benny played as a guard, but this year he was changed to center, where his playing ranked him on the All-Eastern-Ohio team and the WWVA second team and gave him All-Ohio honorable mention. Cap was one of the best line backers Martins Ferry has ever had. He proved his worth to the team when, during the East Liverpool game, he intercepted a pass which set up the touchdown which beat the highly favored Potters . STANLEY lStakel GLAVARIS Guard Everyone knows when Stake is around, always talk- ing, erganising the team, keeping the boys fighting. Many times we have seen Stake break through and block that punt or throw that runner for a nice loss. This was Stake's tirst and last year as a regular on the Rider combine. We only wish that he could spend another sea- son with the Riders. AMON McSWORDS Tackle Mac's football career has been handicapped be- oause of his eighteen months in the Navy. Nevertheless, as soon as he was discharged, he came back to play more football. Mac was a worker and one that any coach could always rely on. TRACK Since the revival of track in Martins Ferry in 1941, the cinder sport has been becoming more popular each year under the direction of Mr. Fred Thomas, the Rider coach. Because ot this, many .freshmen have gone out for track this year. The captain of the '47 cinder club was the sprint star, Eugene Pfeiffer, who established in his freshman year a record of 7.6 seconds in the 70-yard dash. Other outstanding track men were: Bill Kavander, Bob Smith, and Pedro Twardoski in the sprint relay, Dick and Rodger Thomas in the 440-yard dash, Pooch Palmer, Eddie Davis, and Russell Tho- burn in the half-mile, Jim Morris in the hurdles and the broad jump, Pedro , Twardoski, Ray Short, and Ernie Pandelos with the discus and the shot. The Riders opened the season with a dual meet with Linsly Institute on April ll. On the following Saturday, they faced their old rival, Bellaire. A highlight of the year was the O.V.A.C. held at Ferry Field on April 26. SELBY 8: REED DRUG STORE DONALD fDonj MORRIS Tackle Don was one of the big guns in the Rider line. He came back from the army to play the last four games, filling in at the tackle position. With his services in the rest of the schedule, Martins I erry's record of five defeats, four wins, and one tie might have been different. Don also performed with the '44-'45 O.V.A.C. championship team. EUGENE PFEIFFER Halfback Pfeiffer was the speedster of M. F. H. S. Often travel- ing around ends, he had speed to spare. He proved his ability as a haltback when, during the Bridgeport game, he intercepted Hoge's pass and ran sixty-four yards for a T. D. This was one of the longest runs of the year. Along with speed, he had drive which gave opponents a hard time trying to stop him. When Pfeiffer hit, he hit hard and with everything he had. Martins Ferry will miss him when football season rolls around next year. RAYMOND fllayl SHORT End Unlike his brother Ralph, Ray is long and lanky. He was also a two-year letter-man. One of his jobs was spilling interference, and, when he went down, you could be sure that one or two opponents would go down with him. Quiet, studious, and well-liked, Ray is sure to make his mark in future life. ROBERT fBobl SMITH Halfback Lightning was one of our three-year letter-men. 145 pounds is not much weight, but give him a hole and see how he flashed through! Bob used his speed to get him around those ends, and, whenever he went into a game, you could usually expect something spectacular to happen. FOOTBALL SCHEDULE 1947 September 12. ....

Garden, coumaris, Nelson OU eli BV ede, St ef rvey, Joseph D Tu ams, Fred Groux, John Willi Qk NSYAS A BASKETBALL JAMES Uiml SHANE-Senior Well does everyone recall Shane's coming down the floor at top speed, sud- denly whirling to the left or right and calmly raising the ball to the proper height for its course through the net. He has an abundance of energy, all of which is due to intelligent training. All through his career, Gunner has played a brilliant brand of basketball. His floor work has been phenomenal, his shooting under difficulties, sensational. Although a bit short, Jim has made up for this in deadly accuracy and ball-handling. This was his second year on the Varsity. JAMES lNimboj EDEN-Junior Nimbo was a starter on last year's team, and, since then, a decided change has been seen. With his height and keenness to pull off rebounds, Nimbo has saved many points against the Riders. It has been seen that he can handle him- self in good fashion either at the forward or the guard post. As he is still a junior this year at Ferry High, Nimbo ought to make a great name for himself in the Ferry Hall of Fame. RAYMOND lRayj SHORT-Senior Get off that dime, or I'll get you a rocking chair. That was the favorite ex' pression used by Blondie when he wanted Ray to start playing basketball. Ray fitted into the team as a hand fits into a glove. His great ability to play coolly and calmly was a great asset to his team's success. Through the years that Ray played, he showed a decided improvement in his style each year. He had the huge task of filling the shoes of his brother, Ralph, and of the other great centers that had gone before him, but Ferry High in 1947 regards him as one of the best centers it has ever had. VIRGIL ffleal OANCEA-Senior Oancea is a four-year letter-man and captain of the Purple Riders. Virg's greatest asset is his speed and ability to shoot baskets from mid-floor. He is very shifty and, as a result, is able to mislead many a player. He is most feared at a set shot. It is an almost certain score any time that Virg stands alone off to the side, irrespective of the angle, with the ball in his possession. Oancea's ability to pick out noticeable weaknesses in his opponents and to direct his attack in that direction has brought many a victory to his team. Like a streak of blue lightning, he used to race down the court with the most deceptive dodging that has ever been seen on any court. He was so fast that he was able to slip away from his pursuers like the morning mist, and a basket was sure to follow for his team. To a great ball player, good luck in the days to followl I-'RANK lPedrol TWARDOSKI-Junior To see this lion-hearted and aggressive player go forward and pluck the game from the fire has not been an unusual sight to the countless fans who have seen Pedro in action. He made more spectacular shots with a varied degree of consistency than any other player will ever be able to duplicate. From Coach Gartrell came the words, 'How I enjoyed seeing this rugged and fearless player dash down the court and suddenly flip the ball into the netl ROBERT 1Bobl PALMER-Junior Pooch has been a three-position man on the Purple Rider team. He could easily fill in at a forward, center, or guard slot with ease. His ability to do this, along with his remarkable shooting, determined. him a great ball player whom any coach would like to have playing for him. Just in his junior year, Pooch will see plenty of action next winter for The Purple. JOHN TURVEY-Junior John Turvey, a player on the first ten, was always a reliable sub. He has shown great improvement since last year, and we know he will be even better next year. As players fouled out of the game or when the going was tough, Turvey came in to relieve the pressure of a fast game and accounted for himself in full style. As for next year, it will be John's year.

BASKETBALL GAMES 1946-1947 The season opened with a powerful opponent, Youngstown Boardman, which proved no equal to the Ferry team. The Purple Riders racked up 68 points to their opponents' 34. Next to invade the Ferry gym was a fast-breaking Wheeling Central team. As the Riders were off form from only one week of practice, they lost out by one point, 30 to 29. The following game with the same school was played with the speed of the previous one, but the Ferrians were red-hot and poured in 62 markers to the losers' 20. On the following Saturday night, the boys from Ferry rode to East Liverpool, where they met a strong ball club. They were unable to hit the hoop and lost by a count of 60 to 35. After a well-earned rest over Christmas vacation, the Purple Riders rode over Tiltonsville, 53 to 44, and then beat a keen Linsly team on the Madison floor by a score of 44 to 30. The basketeers of Ferry were beginning to hit their stride as they rolled over a well-coached Bellaire team by the score of 65 to 50 and then drubbed their across- the-river foe, Wheeling, by 46 to 45. The Riders traveled to Bridgeport to win over a high-spirited team by two points, 47 to 45, winning in the closing minutes of the game. The following Friday night showed a decided improvement in the Gartrell-coached team, as the Purple Riders won from Steubenville, in Steuben- ville's gym, by a 75 to 59 count. Being on the road too much at one time must have been one of the reasons why Toronto rebounded Ferry to the tune of 56 to 33, defeating the Ferrians, The Riders came back from this to spill the Bellaire team for the second time, 59 to 49. Then Steubenville visited the Ferry court, and Ferry widened its victory margin by winning, 65 to 42. Friday, February 7, Ferry lost at the Union gym by a score of 45 to 51. The Ferrians, never discouraged, trounced the Tiltonsville team again by a 50 to 47 victory. As Friday night seemed to be quite a jinx night, the Bulldogs of Bridgeport took home a 46 to 36 bitter victory from the Riders. On Tuesday, February 14, the Rider team displayed its skill by drubbing a highly-rated East Liverpool team by the score of 45 to 35. The last game of the regular season was played at the Madison gym against Wheeling, Ferry coming out on the long end of the score, 64 to 43.

DAWES CO., WELDING SUPPLIES It we don't have it, we'll get it. 1, 'glial-f , CLASS DAY PROGRAM This year the seniors presented their class day program in the form of a court session. The president of the class appeared before the judge with a petition asking that the Class of 1947 be allowed to graduate. When the judge asked the class to submit proof of its fitness for graduation, the seniors presented their historians, poets, prophets, and singers, who tried to impress his Honor with their great deeds and accomplishments in the past, the present, and the future. CLASS HISTORY Among the first witnesses called were our historians, who reviewed our four years in high school, beginning with our timid entrance as freshmen and ending with our tearful exit as graduates. How we did look forward to our first year in old Ferry High! When that great day arrived, we found ourselves practically bankrupt from buying so many elevator tickets and reserved seats in assembly. However, we survived that, only to become the victims of the ever-present upperclassmen. After a few weeks, we grew accustomed to high school and were once more able to call our souls our own. The sophomore year might be called our year of trial and tribulations. The trial was geometry, and there were plenty of tribulations. By this time, we had our feet well-planted on the ground and thought we were it . According to us, the freshmen were quite low and didn't have the sense of a goldfish. Of course, we weren't sure whether goldfish had sense or not, but our biology teachers were sure they did. Then came the great day when we' were no longer gawky-looking underclass- men but sophisticated-looking juniors. The seniors looked down upon us, and the freshmen looked up to us. Naturally, we decided the freshmen were much more intelligent because they seemed to understand the difference between juniors and seniors. The biggest year of our school career was our senior year. There was no class higher than ours, and there were plenty of classes lower. We were tops , at least, we thought so. We were sure, too, that those dear sophomores liked us, even if no other class did. For most of the seniors, it was a year that we shall al- way remember. We have been busy and worked to death, but surely, when we look back, we shall smile and say, If I could only live my high school years over againl CLASS PROPHECY In giving further evidence as to why we should be allowed to graduate, we presented our class prophecy. This was in the form of a newspaper dated December 15, 1955. It contained the usual society, editorial, sporting, and advertising sections. We were proud to point out to the judge that many of our classmates were prominent in the social, political, professional, business, and industrial worlds. Indeed, we had an unusual number of representatives of the Class of 1947 among the pillars of the community. We were sure that this remarkable showing would impress the judge and help him to decide in favor of our graduation. NAY'S SHOE STORE CLASS WILL As in former years, the seniors were privileged to present their last will and testament. With the judge's consent, we proceeded to give to each according to his need. So as not to create hard feelings with the dearly beloved juniors, we willed to them our good grades and, best of all, a yearly subscription to an Arm- strong heater, guaranteed not for years, not for life,-in fact, due to the janitor shortage, it was not guaranteed. After these presentations, we remembered our good teachers who have helped us so much during our four years in Ferry High. We presented them with ap- propriate gitts so that they would always think of us-as if they could ever forget usl To the underclassmen, the individual seniors were privileged to will some of their prized possessions such as socks, sweaters, hats, and stationery. The couples of the class, with tears in their eyes, willed their cozy love nooks in the halls to the up-and-coming junior couples, who probably will find their own places anyway. ' The seniors completed the sorrowful ceremony with the hope that those to whom the gifts were given would cherish memories of the givers as well as the gifts. CLASS GRIEVANCES Woodrow Wilson once said, We have learned that it is pent-up feelings that are dangerous,--1-nothing so eases the machine as the safety valve. With this in our minds, we prepared a list of grievances which we gave to the judge. We realized that they could not be redressed in our time, here at Ferry High, but we were thinking of those who were to follow us. For some time, the administration and faculty had frowned upon tardiness, sleeping in class, and other cherished habits and customs practiced by the mem- bers of our class. We petitioned the judge that we be allowed to continue these practices. A jury composed of faculty j?????j members passed on each petition and, to our sorrow and regret, refused to grant most of them. After the seniors had presented their witnesses and petitions, the juniors approached the judge with a petition. They asked that they be promoted from junior to senior standing. The jury retired and, after due deliberation, announced the verdicts. As both were favorable, the judge gave the seniors permission to graduate and the juniors the rating of seniors. Since there was no further business, court was adjourned. The members of the court retired, and the seniors marched from the courtroom. FAREVVELL Prom old Ferry High we must go No more to return in September, The days that have gone Will forever live on Deep in our hearts like the words of a song. The spirit of our dear old school Will linger forever and ever, The friends that we knew Will forever think of you, Our dear old Ferry High.
