First Grade With hair curled and dressed in our lsest, We were ready to see the rest, On the school bus we did go, Here we were placed in a neat row. To study and play the day thru, And meet many a classmate new. Rah, our school day comes to a close, Happily each pupil homeward goes, To tell Mamma the day's success, That for nine months we will possess. Third Grade Children are crowded into the room, All are seated row upon row, Three R's are taught from morn till noon With Art keeping the child in tow. A part of their study is Toy-band, With uniforms of both white and red, Then at noon in line they stand, To get a hot lunch with bread. Then back to the room they go, The three R's to continue till four, With helpful teacher going to and fro, So each child gets a good score. ln between they have time to play, Cooperation is the idea for girl and boyp A Third Grade well rounded day, Second Grade That very first exciting day, We came to school in full array, Approaching the door, not the gate, Armed with pencils, books and slate. We left home, many a plaything, When the school bell loudly did ring, In order to learn a lot more, Behind the huge second grade door. We studied many a hard book, To have an intelligent look, Then when the summer days were nigh, We were ready to say Good-bye. Fourth and Fifth Grades We waited all summer for school to begin. We crowded the doors iust to get in. Then upstairs we came with a bound and a leap, Till teacher said, Now, hush, hush, not a peep. We sat in our seats so quiet and meek. While teacher gave us our work for the week. We looked toward a year of work and of PIUYI And to learn something new every hour of Closes for each child with feeling of icy. the day. Sixth Grade On Sept. 5, 1949 when the doors of the McClure School swung open wide they greeted twenty-eight eager boys and girls to the sixth grade. We were glad to welcome into our group three new members: Robert Mann, Carol Hoffman, and Bernard Austermiller. We are anx- iously looking forward to being a part of the High School floor another year.

Shoot 'em High The boys are in a huddle. Let's go! they yell. The whistle blows and the game starts. Bob Behnfeldt lumps. Donald Hatfield gets the ball which he throws to Tommy Good, while George Kryder guards his opponent. Tommy then dribbles down the floor to Bob Wenig. Bob makes a basket and McClure scores the first two points of the game. Substitutes for the varsity are: Maurice Ballmer, Deanne Armstrong, Jack Mitchell, Norman Von Seggern, and Ted Kryder. As any basketball fan can testify, the ball goes back and forth until a basket is made. It seems that the basket is sometimes missed. A basketball game can be so thrilling that every- one sits on the edge of his seat, while the boys on the bench sit still C?J chewing gum! Whoops! Some one's bubble gum popped. Our coach, Mr. Carver, has helped us win games and has given us hope when we have been defeated. Thanks, coach, for your loyalty! Substitutes for the reserve team were: Art Shepard, Virgil Behnfeldt, George Middleton, Larry Spangler, Bert Richard, Bob Wagner, Richard Babcock, Jim Shidler, Tom Kryder, Lester Shufelt, Gene Armstrong, Landon Wolfe, Lowell Naveau, and Roger Kerwin. We are the Mighty Men of M.H.S. who Shoot 'Em High . Beat the other fellow to the goal And your name will be on the roll, So study hard to learn the play Keeping in mind its use each day. Every week our school we defend That these points in games will end By bringing our school out ahead And show others we can use our head. Life is also a game we must dare Lest we forget to play on the square.
