THE FRESHMAN CLASS We, the class of 1950, now that we are in our freshman year, can pause and look back upon the early days when we were mere seventh and eighth graders. We entered the seventh grade in the fall of '44 and had our first glimpse of the building that was to be our second home. We had very few activ- ities that first year. It was spent mostly in getting acquainted, and getting accustomed to the grind that was to be ours for the next six years. As eighth graders We were much more at home and entered into the school activities. We selected two representatives to the student council, Jack St. John and Janis Duckworth, and at the end of the year we had a class day and a commencement. At THE SOPHO On September 4, 1945, we timidly peered into the mysterious rooms that stood at the end of the long hall which separates the Junior and Senior High. We were freshmen and all the upperclassmen looked upon us with a superior eye. As our officers we chose John Bob Hacker, president, Suzanne Hadley, vice-presidentg and Nancy Hyatt, secretary-treasurer. Our first year wassomewhat uneventful, but near the end, with the help of our sponsor, Miss Georgann Shufflebarger, we presented a one-act comedy, Dynamite Dan. However, this year we sauntered into the halls and we too looked a little disdainfully the latter We received our treasured diplomas which were bound in black and gold, the class colors. We entered the freshman class happily and looked forward to the coming events. We elected officers at the beginning of the year. The representative from the freshman class for the auditorium program committee is Mickey Clarisey. The student council repre- sentatives are Jackie St. John, Janis Duck- worth, Virginia Hovious, Billy Record, and Mickey Clarisey. Miss Georgann Shufflebarger is our class sponsor and we are looking forward to our next three years as our happiest ones. -ALICE ROSE MOORE. ORE CLASS at the freshmen. Our officers this year were Zane Knoy, president, Tom Schnaiter, vice- president, and Bob Shelbourne, secretary- treasurer. We began to participate in more activities, serve on club committees, and do our part in filling the Mile of Dimes in the infantile paralysis drive held in the front hall. The sophomores in the Latin department, under the leadership of Mrs. Matilda McKrill, presented to the student body and to the public the Classical Review of 1947. This was a pantomime concerning the life of the Greek gods and goddesses, and telling stories of their contacts with the people on earth. --NANCY HYATT. THE JUNIOR CLASS We, the junior class of 1947, came to Mar- tinsville High School with an enrollment of 146 in our freshman class. Our officers were: president, Robert Keller, vice-president, Eph Gossg secretary-treasurer, Carol Coleman. The sponsors who worked with us were Miss McCoy and Mr. Ostermeyer. We toiled through the sophomore year with 131 class members. That year we had as our officers: Bill Bates, president, Eph Goss, vice-president, and Colleen Alexander, secretary-treasurer. Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Young were our sponsors. As juniors, Eph Goss became our presi- dent, Bill Bates, vice-president, Carol Cole- man, secretary, and Ruth Tabb, treasurer.
