Milton High School - Clipper Yearbook (Milton, DE)

Page 33 text:

I, Ellen Wagamon, leave my ability to graduate from Milton High to my mother who is still here. I, Joan Mitchell, leave to be one of the first humans on the moon, on the assumption that women drivers can hit anything. I, Ronald Carroll, leave my high scholastic ability and my outstanding athletical per- formances to anyone who enjoys being laughed at. I, John LeGates, leave all my money to John R. Hudson. CLASS HISTORY NINTH GRADE The hands of the clock swept to nine, and we entered our freshman year with a grand total of 49. Some of the more athletic ones were ei- ther in J. V. or Varsity sports, and many joined at least one club. TENTH GRADE Number ten on the clock represents our sophomore year, which we entered with 40 members. If we had any ideas that high school was go- ing to be all play, our sophomore year shattered them. Certain mem- bers of the class were already known as star players on the basketball teams while others were showing their ability in Student Council, Press Club, etc. ELEVENTH GRADE The clock ticked on to eleven and we started our junior year 40 members strong. Our junior play Shy Guy was our first big job of the year and success was made when the auditorium was packed both nights. The most exciting year so far drew to a close as the gym doors swung open to present our prom, Paradise of the Deep. TWELFTH GRADE The clock has now struck twelve for the class of 62 as we take over our role as seniors. We started our last and busiest year as the biggest senior class in the history of Milton School. Occupying most of the time has been the yearbook, the Christmas Dance, the supper, and the senior trip. As graduation day draws near, the class of 62 anxiously awaits what the future holds for us.
