ill? !lfWCllAQ4'S IUNIQR HISTORY ln the month of September, 1944, we entered into this Land of Learning, one-and-fifty seek- ers of knowledge. And it came to pass, as we did enter this land, that we were received with wild welcom- ings and reioicings by those who it was de- creed should henceforth lead us up the slip- pery by-ways of knowledge. Likewise it came to pass that we were received with malicious glee by a certain band of Wild beings who were called Sophomores, and who because of their fierce taste for Fresh- man blood, did pounce upon us daily and nightly, and did cause us to suffer great things. Qur class that year was conducted and man- aged well by the following officers: Ioe Frank as presidentg Don Williams, vice-president: Wilma Winheim, secretary: Totsy Rauhut, treasurer: and Mrs. Sarah Krebs and Mr. D. Evans served as our sponsors. The main event and attraction that year was a May Dance with the May Queen, Miss Verdell Rick, being elected from our class. 4 Exactly one year later we returned to school to complete the second of our four years of high. We remembered the days of our own greenness, and as the Sophomores had done unto us, we did unto these new Freshmen. We showed no mercy unto their sufferings, and no heed unto their lamentations, until all were bruised with much sorrow. It was a promising and successful year, under the guidance of our sponsor, Mr. Orland Woods, and our class officers, who were Ioe Frank as president: Hubert Frank, vice-president: Wilma Winheim, secretary, and Totsy Rauhut, as treasurer. Under their leading guidance we gave a suc- cesssful roller-skating party and Christmas Dance. To our class that year Miss Totsy Rauhut brought great renown when she was elected Reflector Queen of l946. This year as Iuniors we returned to school, with a few of our past friends missing from our list, but we also found there were new mem- bers to be added to it. Working diligently in our studies and showing much progress, we successfully gave the Hayseed Howl and a Carnival with the Senior Class. Renown was again brought to our class when Miss Verdell Rick was crowned Carnival Queen. The leading officers who have guided us this year are: lean Delaney, presidentp Don 'Williarns, vice-presidentg Totsy Rauhut, secre- tary, and George Aff, treasurer. We were happy to elect this year as our sponsors, Miss Elizabeth McDonald and Mrs. Vernon Barrett, who have helped us considerably in every way possible. Basketball seems to be a favorite sport to Ioe Frank, Don Williams, and Philip Heitz, for they have served on the B team and are now on the A. As our Senior year approaches we hope that with the wonderful guidance, such as we have had these past three years, we may set forth an even better record. Page Twenty-Six
