SENlCR CLASS HIISTCLW In the fall of 1941 a big event took place in MHS. The Class of '45 en- tered the high school as meek little freshmen. Proud of finally reaching the dcor, they wandered through the halls with a look of awe. lust when these poor little waifs thought everything was going smoothly, up popped initiation week. Girls were ordered to don the attire of men- over- coats, underwear, bathing caps, and dainty work boots. How glamorous they were. The boys decked themselves in overalls and work shirts worn in re' verse. Their freshness was shown by their bright green ties. Curlers in the Shirley Temple mode were worn in their hair. Kangaroo court, held the sixth period o nthe day of initiation, was ritotous fun for the seniors and spectators, but gave a big headache to the freshmen. The class was organized with lake Wiloth, Harry Morse, Helen Graves, and Vernon Stephens as officers. On November 8 a return party was given to the seniors, complete with ghosts, witches, cobwebs, and jack-o'-lanterns. Christmas found us ready with entertainment for the annual party. The year was climaxed with the all-school picnic on May 22. As ambitious sophomores we started the year right with the key drive victory and by winning numerous bond sales. These were celebrated by a special sophomore party in the gym at Hallowe'en when we ducked for apples and played games while the other classes went to school. To top this, we sold Christmas cards, gave a class play, The Fascinating Fanny Brown, and sold hot dogs at the games. Our officers were: President Bernard Lee, Vice- president Marie Iones, Secretary Mary Frances Puder, and Treasurer Wanelda Killham. Our junior year began with great activtity in preparation for the junior prom. We sallied forth with Christmas wreaths and cards to boost the treasury fund. Again we sold hot dogs and coffee at the football games. At last the big event rolled around-Iunior-Senior Proml-May 31. The gym was converted into the hold of The Buccaneer and the pirate theme was carried out in favors, programs, and special dances. ln gratitude for this, the seniors delighted us with a sneak day ending at the Boy Scout camp. The girls ruled this year with Shirley Peoples, Lois Marty, Betty Ierman, and Ruth Rorabeck in the class offices. Nelda Io Barber, Harvey Carson, and Helen Graves moved away. Three members entered the armed forces--Bernard Lee, Harry Morse, and Iiles Bays, a fourth, Myron Colosimo, became a firefighter at the airbase. Good luck fellowsl -10-
