CLASS HISTORY We are a group of students who have been attending Middle- branch High School for nigh on to 720 days. We've met a lot of people and made a lot of friends. Now we are grown up and ready to leave our alma mater. We're sorry to go for we've been re- miniscing over our past years and this is what we recall: Four years ago we were green little Freshmen. There were seventy-four of us, under the direction of Miss Adrian.ClaraWblfe was our president, Harriet Wirth our vice-president, and Alice Boli our secretary and treasurer. At the beginning of the year we suffered initiation but enjoyed the party given to ustm'dnaSopho- mores. We proved to be good salesmen for we sold basketballsche- dule pencils and name pins that we made of macaroni alphabets. We showed that we were a studious lot by winning seven scholarship medals. We came back from our vacation with fifty-seven members. By this time we were accustomed to the school life and took part in all the activities. Our class was guided by Miss Leist and Mr. Schamp. Junior Weisel headed the class as president, and Harriet Wirth was secretary and treasurer. Early in the fall the Sopho- mores played host to the Freshmen at the initiation party. Emsket- ball schedule pencils were sold again and we sponsored awnmy'suc- cessful roller-skating party. Six of us earned medals. We'll never forget our Junior year. Our class, consistingof forty-five members, was supervised by Miss Smith and Mr. 'Cawrse. Clara Wolfe was chosen president, Evelyn Woods, vice-president, Harriet Wirth, secretaryg Barbara Firestone, treasurerg Dmddikmna chapel representative, Betty Feller, chairman of ways and means committee, and Nelson Schmucker in charge of candy. We Juniors were busy all year. Candy was sold at noon, after school, and during the football and basketball seasons. nBoost Middlebranch Diamondsu stickers were sold during the athletic season.InCmtober a roller-skating party was held at Land O'Dance. Two dances were held in the auditorium. The queen of the football banquet, Ewelyn Woods, was chosen from our class. Her Junior attendant wasfinrlsy Phillips. UCne Wild Nightn was the class play with leading roles taken by Barbara Firestone and Emile Taillard. Junior Weisel and Nelson Schmucker were sent to Columbus to Buckeye Boys' State.

Clara Wolfe placed second in the French scholarship test and was sent to Kent We ended our Junior year by honoring the seniors with a banquet and prom. Everyone enjoyed dancing to the music of Eddie Juenennn's orchestra in our South American Atmosphere. Four Juniorsreceived scholarship medals. We started our Senior year with forty-four students. Miss Wathan was our class adviser, and our officers were Junior Weiseh Nelson Schmucker, Geneva Schott, and Evelyn Woods, president,vice- president, secretary, and treasurer, respectively. Personalized stationery was sold throughout the entire year. The concessions at the basketball,tournament in Massillon gave us an opportunity to show our super-salesmanship. Shirley Phillips was football queen and Kathryn Crawford her attendant from our class. Betty Feller was superintendent and Junior Weisel principal on Student Day. We had two supper parties for the boys who left ourcdassfor the armed forces. Time flew quickly.
