 M i CLASS HISTORY Well, schoolmates, in just a short time our days at Uattituck High rill ho over Wo 11 each go our way to various jobs, colleges, and out into life No mat ter what way be in storo for us, we 11 always cherish the many happy memories we've shared together as the Class of »47. Now, this isn't supposed to be a sob story A It's just a reminder of some of the events which have taken place during the past twelve years--events which, in the years to come, will prove very dear to us By the way, do you realise that we are the only class graduating from M H S« who start ed First Grade in the new school? In other words, we wore the first First Grade Wo are the first ones to enjoy the full use of this wonderful school Yes, we've had some great experiences Remember the fun we had during the noon hours back in First Grade? We used to be scared to death of Kr. Wormley, aud would hide behind a door or in any convenient crevice whenever we saw him petroling the halls I don't know what we wore afraid of Then, we'd go into the Second Grade where Mrs Reeve let us write on the boards (Something Miss Morris didn't allow ) In Second Grade we made up our own class song, with Hiss King's assistanoe, of course The words were nThe parade I The parade I The parade is in town I There's a clown upside-down There are cages all around 11 Wasn't that brilliant? Tie breezed through the Third and Fourth Grades with a minimum of difficulties, and, with the help of two fine teachers, Mrs. Kramer and Miss Warner, proceeded to Mrs Lindsay's Fifth Grade. Here we made crepe papor flowers, among other things. Some of us still have the pink roses we made, although they aro rather faded How grown up we felt when we went upstairs to Seventh Grade I Miss Schmidt had her ’lands full When we drew Hiss Paterson for a teacher, we calmed down a bit If we didn't behave, we were kept after sohool to do the deep knee bend Our spirit was by no means broken by the time we reached high school. Fresh- man year, we spent in getting acquainted with our now classmates from Oregon, Cut- chogue, Sound Avenue, and Laurel We were beginning to realize the value of Mr KcCaw's frequent lectures, which we began to hear for the first time in his home- y room Our boys went out for sports, and many of them made the team Remember how proud we wero of the Jay Vees that year? Joyce, Lois and Dawn started cheerleading then, too. Doc presided over the class Let's see. What eventful thing happened Sophomore year? Oh, yes. Miss Sheff came to town I Need we say any more? Jack Van and Doris Wilsberg were our respec- tive homeroom presidents. Mr Keller had us for a headache, as well as for a homeroom Junior year. Bud Bergmann, an up and coming executive, was our president We can't forget the jazz orohestra we had for assembly We played I'm Always Chasing Rainbows , I Can't Begin To Tell You and Helena Polka . Wasn't it fun decorating for the Junior From, with The Toy Shop as the thome? Some of our happiest memories center around Mr. Williams and the music depart- ment. Our eight o'clock Band, Orchestra and Glee Club rehearsals resulted in some fine musical programs There's so much to tell about our Senior year that it's hard to know where to begin Pete Sabat was president, the girls started a bowling club, several Veter- ans came back to join the class as Seniors or P G.'s, Dave Warren and George Pappas took Solid Geometry and passed the regents in January, Mr. Gilchrist got married, Mr Clingen'8 son, Terry, was bom, the Minstrel Show was a howling success, we pre- sented the play, Junior Miss and our story could go on and on, but time's rumdng short. We're graduating!
