Ralph Poplar from England: Ted Isabel from Lewisburg: Vivian Silver from Eaton, and Ruth Russel from Glouster, Ohio. Billy Walters, Rose Galusha, and loy Whitehair made up your very capable representation in the Student Council. Mrs. Schmitz, and Mr. Millard, helped to guide you through this year as class sponsors. The most outstanding grades were made by: Martha Beals, Rosemary Conrad, Barbara Durr, Don Gebhart, Ellen Good, Carol Koch, Ioe Schell, Shirley Schneider, Peggy Stevens, and Billy Walters. Bill Walters not only led the class as president and in scholastic ability, but also in his essay for the American Legion. He won state-wide recognition for this feat as well as a trip to Washington, D. C. The freshmen boys were outstanding in sports.

These boys will be ready to meet any team in a year or two. On the night of May 10, in the school auditorium, the freshmen class held its annual play entitled, Wild Cat Willie's Lucky Number. The characters were as follows: Willie, who believes in luck: Gladys, his sister: Mrs. Wilkins, his mother: Joe, his pal: Kathie, loe's sister: Vernon, another pal: Celia, Vernon's sister. The setting of the play is in the early spring: Saturday afternoon, in Willie's living-room. Willie is in urgent need of a baseball bat. Forgetting that the seventeenth is his mother's birthday, he spends all his money in the purchase of his bat. After much thought and consideration of the whole perplexing problem, Willie trades his bat for a doll in the hope that he may trade this for a chance on a refrigerator for his mother. As he impatiently awaits the results of his efforts, he finds that he has not won the first prize, but does win the seventeenth prize which is an electric toaster. This, he presents to his mother and the play draws happily to a conclusion. E. W. URSCHEL Shoes - Repair Service ...23-.
