Senior Achievements N September of 1937, the Class of 1941 started out in the world of high school education under the supervision of Mr. Brimmer. Our President was Carl Johnston, Vice President, John Swihart, Student Council, Gerald Stahl, Secretary-Treasurer, Bernice Shaffer, Cheerleader, Ruth Kinney. An important event of the year was our initiation by the Sophomore Class. In our Sophomore year with Mr. Ingall as our class sponsor we elected as our officers: Carl Johnston, President, Ivadel Stith, Vice President, Delora Wachtman, Secretary-Treasurer, Gerald Stahl, Stud- ent Council, Ruth Kinney, Cheerleader. It was our turn to do the initiating and we certainly enjoyed doing it! We began to earn money for our Senior trip by collecting sales tax stamps. Time marched on, for in no time we were Juniors. Miss Lackey was our sponsor and Carl Johnston, President, John Swihart, Vice President, Ewald Farwig, Secretary, Ruth Wiechman, Treasurer, Ger- ald Stahl, Student Council, Cheerleader, Laura Ann Williams. In September 1940, we reached the last notch in our high school career with Miss Brubaker as our sponsor. Our officers were: Melvin Engle, President, Gerald Stahl, Vice-President, Ivadel Stith, Secretary, Ruth Wiechman, Treasurer. Our motto, which we followed in our four years, was Courage And Honor Lead To Success. The class flower was the Red Rose and the class colors were Scarlet and Silver. This was our class poem: We are glad Old Montgomery To be within thy fold, Thy teachings in our high school years Have helped us make our goal, Thy inspirations and high aims Gave us courage to contend In honor, to strive for success, Which is life's noblest end. And we the class of '41 Our honor will uphold, Weill honor thee, Thou hast well done, To help us reach life's goal. 1 i 1 We earned money for our class trip by selling candy, magazine subscriptions and Christmas cards. We began the New Year in earnest effort to build up our treasury. Our first accomplishment was the publish- ing of the Basketball Tournament Booklets. The Feeders' Banquet, skating parties at Oak Harbor, a bake sale and a card party were successful money- raising schemes. The boys who earned letters in football were Bill Boggs, Carl Johnston, Dick Mattimore, Bob Mapes, Jim Burrows, Jim Gaines, John Swihart, and co- captains Harry Brueggemeier and Don Hoiles. The Seniors active as club oHC1cers were: Ruth Wiech- man, President of the Girl Reserves, Ewald Farwig, President of Boys' 4-H Club, Melvin Engle, President of Future Farmers of America, Betty VanCamp, President of Home Economics Club, and Geneva Merritt, Editor and Gerald Stahl, Business Manager of the 1941 Mohirab. The following boys were players on the varsity basket- ball team: Ewald Farwig, Harry Brueggemeier, Dick Mattimore, Don Hoiles, Carl Johnston, John Swihart, Fred Trudel and Captain Gerald Stahl. Robert Jacquot and Jim Gaines earned Reserve letters. We are thankful for our pleasant years at Mont- gomery.
