In the fall of 1938 they entered high school as 91 uncertain freshmen but with the patient management of the class advisors, Miss Pottinger, Mr. Heinz, Miss Ward, and Mr. Mercer, soon got a toe- hold for the four year race of knowledge. Our first step was the selection of class officers. The result of the election was: Jack Steele, resident, Bonnie Jean Reeser, vice-president, Helen Frost, secretary- treasurerf and, Norman Mortonson, student council member. As they gathered mo- mentum on the first lap, seventy dollars worth of magazine subscriptions were sold, a candy booth was successfully launched at the Senior-G.A.A. Carnival, and a freshmen party indulged in for relaxation. At the beginning of the sophomore year the following leaders were chosen: Charles Gesslein, president, Stanley Yost, vice-president, Joan Hochstatter, secretary-treasurer: Virginia Kibler, Marjorie Black, and Stanley Yost as student council members and Alice Nixdorff as cheerleader. lt soon became evident that certain members were long winded and inclined to debate. The result of their loquaciousness brought major letters to Carmel Austin, Jack Steele and Alice Nixdorff. Evelyn Leilheit expounded her wind ap- paratus in singing, winning first at district and second at state. Jean Selby and Mary Ellen Holliston were members of the girls' octet. The activity of several students gave the telegraph booth instailed at the Carnival considerable popularity. In 1940 our Alma Mater welcomed her pupils again. The first task of the juniors was a selection of executives. These were James Besenfelder, president, Evelyn Leifheit, vice-president: Ruth Van Etten, secretary-treasurer: Charles Gesslein, student councilor, and Jack Mercer, cheerleader. On the third lap Jean Hill joined her long-winded colleagues, Alice and Jack in debate. ln sports the junior class took limelight and found Besenfelder, Edwards, Faber, Gesslein and Pederson on the football squad and major letter winners. ln basketball those winning their major letters were Edwards, Besenlelder, and Faber. Jack Tower received a minor letter. ln track three of the bo s won majors. However, not onl boys won athletic fame, but six girls achieved letters zur G.A.A. points. ln the realm oysocial activities, Marijan Tower and Mary Ellen Holliston became G.R. officers. The junior class play was given May 9 and proved to the seniors, teachers and townspeople that acting ability was not the least of the accomplishments of this un- beata le group. The main and last enterprise is the Prom, which must uphold the runners' fame until the last lap gets underway.
