1943 With the first days of September, the closing week of the pennant race and the World Series, the first football practice, and Indian summer, the one hundred eighty members of the Beginning Freshman class walked up the stairs of M.H.S. and settled down in their third-floor homerooms. For a few weeks these meek souls roamed the halls with awe, wondering if they would ever be able to walk from one class to an- other without having to stop some upper- classmen and very sheepishly ask the way. Oh! the thrill to have some important senior very graciously offer to show you— Class of thc Wr0nS W y! June 194; Over in thc other corridor the Advanced Class of Freshmen were finding their places in January 1945 school life. They had none of the bewilder- ment which faced the entering class. Through experience they had learned many things. Among them was thc fact that it was unnecessary for them to carry all their books from class to class like an over- burdened husband back from a shopping tour. It wasn’t long before the Freshmen be- gan to shine in basketball; they were seen in the school play; they wrote for the Question Mark; they made a name for themselves in the Radio Revue. Many of these students showed great literary ability. For these Miss Burke, thc freshman English teacher, established a creative writing class. The school had an opportunity to sec thc splendid work accomplished by these peo- ple in assembly programs.
