CLASS HISTORY The pigtailed, freckled faced first graders of eleven years ago have now become grown-up Juniors. The majority of the class first tasted school life in the old New Central building. Then when the district was consolidated we gained many new students from the surrounding country schools. When we reached the height of seventh grade our class was so large that we required three teachers. Then, with the addition of students from the academy, we became the first of the large classes to enter high school. As we look back on the good old days when we played kick baseball, little did we know that were sprouting such a fine group of athletes as John Bisher, Ed Carter, Lonnie Palmer, Jim High, Harry Turrell and others. The music classes of way back when have developed many members in chorus and band from our class. This year, led by our officers, Jim High, president; Kay Dionne, vice-president; Barbara Auld, secretary; Rosemary Sanders, treasurer, we have many interesting activities to look for- ward to and add to our store of memories. FIRST ROW: Mrs. Griest, Ellen Lind, Delores Hop, Carolyn Howard, Marleen Hibbs, Hazel Gil- bert. SECOND ROW: Jim High, Mary Jackson, Diane Litoborski, Donna Line, Janice Lowman, Judy Hess, Kay Love. THIRD ROW: Edward Henson, Wayne Ilium, Orrin Kinney, Carl Haslett, Dale Hess, Bob Jarvis, Edgar Hensen. This page is sponsored by the YELLOW FRONT STORE.
