Beverly Graber Well, the very first activity of the fre.shmen class was the election of class officers and the two student council members who are Ruth Ladley and Frank Cirone. Of course everyone knows that freshmen are initiated and so were we initiated on November 28 and we all looked funny - - the girls with their hair on top of their heads, the boys wearing finger nail polish and everybody carrying his books in a kettle. The class meetings were few and far between, but finally we thought of a few ideas; among them was selling pencils with basketball schedules on them, but since the sophomores thought of it first, that idea was out. The only party we had this year was the roller skating party on March 19th at the Land O ' Dance Roller Skating Rink. Vivian Bair was in charge of the tickets. There were so many present that night that the bus driver had to take two bus loads home. The party was a great success end one of the largest parties at the roller rink.

In My Senior Year There ' s nothing like a diary to spill all the inside workings of a person. The other day I came across the senior ' s diai;y for her graduating year. It will let you in on some of the school doings too. I thought you ' d like to see parts of it so here it is. SEPTEMB ER Dear Diary, 8 - This was the day- school again- 179 ' 2 days of it, as Mr. Kohr reminded us in his an- nual speech all morning. Miss Wathan led the singing and we lost our shyness. 9 - The Hi-Y held their first meeting with Mr. Guttner. 11 - Student Council got together to make our laws and punish us. Students signed up for trip to Columbus. 15 - Cafeteria opened and fed 150 hungry students. 18 - Everything ' s first in this month. The first Mid-Hi News and usual scramble to get it out . . . our population is now 275, it told us. Imagine, two boys have joined the Home Ec. Class . . . some woman ' s going to be lucky! 19 - Old members of Girl Reserves met and planned to save tax stamps and initiate new members. 24 - Our four new twirlers and head major were chosen today with faculty judging and students watching. Some jolly strutters! 26 - Shades of Arabia! A real sheik from Palestine, Raphael Emmanuel, entertained us with stuff and nonsense. Did you hear that laugh? Highlight of today was the East Canton game with the band strutting in the season in fine style. 29 - The Memoir staff was picked with Emily Rice at the head of our future struggle. Class officers in home rooms were elect- ed. And so ends September with a golden rush ■ - OCTOBER Dear Diary, 1 - Our guardians, the P. T. A., held first meeting. What would we do without them? We were treated with an educational (?) movie. 2 - Umm, Miss Wathan ' s brother arrived here out of the rain. Was that why the girls were all excited? I ' m glad I don ' t play a trumpet . . . the band had to drill in the rain. 3 - Victory - our second game, 7-0 with Navarre and in rain, yet! Our team is red hot. 4 - Hotter than 4th of July. Twirlers and band measured for uniforms. They say the tape measure lies. 7 - Home Ec. Classes trotted to the Canton Provision Co. All that meat and no potatoes. Miss Rodgers and her helpers scrubbed and rubbed the library so her classes had a vacation. 8 - What ' s that smell? Oh - cabbage in the cafeteria. 9 - We were told in chapel the importance of religion and somehow when the preacher was through, you believed him. Seniors rally to sell personal stationery. In Booster we planned a dance - as usual - - and put it off - as usual. Business English class was trying to find the ideal teacher. Is there such a thing? 10 - Fame came to Middlebranch - Mr. Kohr and Miss Wathan pictured in Repository. George Campanelli broke an ankle trying to keep Middies from losing to Marlboro. We won 13-0. 13 - Seniors got out the Chris ' mas cards again. Gym classes tackled the dummy. Only two boys and five girls turned out for dancing classes. What ' s the mat;er, does everyone know how to dance? 14 - Paper staff meeting. Will somebody please make some news? Girl Rsserves were refused evening meetings. Are our feathers ruffled ! 15 - Boys are ruffled, too. There was Hi-Y initiadon last night. 16 - Tears and threats and emotions filled auditorium today at play tryouts. Some future Spencer Tracys and Hepburns were there, we are sure. 17 - Middies with another football victory, this time over Navarre. Must be the good looking coach. 20 - Everyone back from Columbus looking slightly soggy. As usual some got lost and some discovered new romances. It was a great day with Ohio State the winner. And it rained. 22 - Stars of play announced. Good groom- ing talk in gym class. I never knew my walk looked like Donald Duck. G. R. ' s planning Hallowe ' en party. 23 - Juniors held roller skating party. Tomor- row vacation. Teachers go to Cleveland. 27 - An even tie with North Canton on Satur- day. Dancing today at noon with Barbara ' s record player. 28 - Elections going on for student day - hope I have some friends. 31 - Who ' s that ghost? Girl Reserves ' first social event of the season a success, with a Halloween party and the initiation of new and scared members. Student Day was a holiday
