Reginald Hyatt,Wilbur Newman, Alice Walker, Margaret Unland. Clarence Talley, and D. G. Miller. In our Freshman year, we are sorry tosay,we lost fiveclass members. D. G. Miller, Edgar Ham, Glen Robinson, and Vera Seawalt moved away. Betty Gobel got in the line of fire of Mr. Cupid's arrow. In 1948 we returned to school in September and when count was taken we found that we had lost three more class mates. Margaret Unland and Alice Walker got married. Clarence Talley moved away. We found a new face--Mary Browning in our class that year too. We became up-and-coming Juniors in 1949, much to our surprise! We felt very proud to be known as the upper classmen . During this year we lost three students. Wilbur Newman and Raymond Ransom got tired of the old intellectual institute and Lila Nunn dropped out to be married. This year we were kept on our toes with the annual banquet and dance along with our studies. The theme for our banquet and dance was Starlight . We received our class rings shortly after Christmas and were well satisfied with our choice. Those answering to the roster in 1950-'51 are: Ruth Berghaus. Mary Browning, Ted Dickman, Beverly Gregory, Theda Hobbs, Alene Hulett, Reginald Hyatt, Wanda McDannald, Daryle Nortrup, Pat Ruyle, Joseph Schlichting, Dick Simon. Wayne Tegeder, and Robert Werries. Our class play this year was Whoa, Auntie with every one of the members of the class participating. At the time of printing we have not decided on a class trip but have talked about various places to go. At the end of the school year of '51 we shall all regret that it is our last year of school in M. H.S.and will never forget the good times we have had in spite of our trying times of studies.
