THE C HSS HUSTCNBY Our first experiment began in 1934, with Mrs. Dice, Miss Koons and Miss Minsker as our leading scientists. Enrolled in our class were 43 girls and 45 boys. Many of the students were able to show their acting ability in the Tom Thumb wedding. Bonnie Bennett was the bride and .lack Stolz the bridegroom. Betty Louise Yoder was the Maid of Honor. People who liked to talk got their name in a house drawn on the board. .lean Youtz usually managed to get her name there. At the end of the year we enjoyed our first picnic at Van Rensler's Park. The scientists for our second year were Mrs. Goodenow, Mrs. Kschinka, and Miss Dunlap t Mrs. Marvin Hartmanl. This year we were confronted with many new and strange experiments, but managed to come through successfully. This year Ethel Klingerman joined the class. We put on a play for P. T. A. which everyone enjoyed. Our third year found us with Miss Dewald tMrs.Elderi and Miss Stahl fMrs. Stahli leading us. This year Danny Heyl entertained us one day by bringing a snake to school. It scared the teacher and she jumped on a chair. We did quite a bit of writing this year in Penmanship Class. Our fourth year found us climbing the steps to be greeted by Miss Berriman tMrs. Max Frey? and Miss Betty Hafer tMrs. Seith Schockl as our scientists. This year Dorothy Holdren began her career as a writer, writing long and humorous stories for English Class. We lost, this year, Lucille Eichenlaub from our group and Harold Akers joined us. Beginning our fifth year, we found the experiment becoming more complicated and difficult. This year our experiment was conducted by Miss Brelsford tMrs. Graham? and Miss Waltman tMrs. Voneidai. This year Ethel Wallis left us and we were joined by Louise Bair. Sixth grade found us under the leadership of Miss Waldron and Mrs. Kschinka. This year many were in the Glee Club. During this experiment Barbara Kahler joined us with her witty sayings and also Lorraine Taylor became a member of our group. If you should look outside of Mrs. Kschinka's door this year you usually found someone in the hall. Sometimes you could find five or six. We had our first Chapel Committees this year and this ended our first successful half. The seventh year of our magnificent experiment found us going downstairs to a new and dif- ferent world. Changing classes every period, found many of us becoming lost, but everyone seemed to receive a thrill from the new things Junior High School had to offer. This year our home room teachers were Mrs. Arthur and Miss King. The girls put on a gym exhibition under the supervision of Mrs. Weaver. The scientists for our eighth year were Miss Stiber tMrs. Winter? and Miss Stewart fMrs. Weaverl. During the winter the class enjoyed a sleigh ride in the country, but some found them- selves behind and had to walk back. Our section had quite a time this year with the changing of teachers. Mrs. Morgan took Mrs. Weaver's place after substitute teachers had been there. Our ninth year found our experiment coming to a more decisive point. Our leaders for this year were Miss Long and Miss Wolfgang tMrs. Latshawl. Betty Baysore joined us this year. At our promotion exercises this year Lucille Dimm read the Bible and Betty Michael led the entire grade in prayer. Our theme What America Means to Me was given by Barbara Kahler, Ethel Klingerman and Dean Landis. Ethel Klingerman and Harold Egli received the American Legion Awards. Our tenth experiment was bringing us near the close of what we have been trying to attain. Mr. Crist and Mr. Musial helped us with our experiment. ,Ioan Dugan became a quiet and shy member of the class. We were faced by many problems in Biology, but were helped over the rough bumps by Mr. Musial. This year was very exciting, and what was classed to most of us as an aeronautic class undef the supervision of Miss Garnaucia. We lost Don Freeh this year. At the end of the year some of the class held a picnic at Rolling Green Park. The eleventh experiment found us under the leadership of Mrs. Martin and Mr. Myers. Donald Heincleman left for the Army and Majorie Spogen joined us. Some of us were in the class play this year As You Like It. Lucille Eichenlaub left this year, but hoping to return sometime in the future. Ethel Klingerman won the State Essay Contest on the subject, Thomas Jefferson, His Contribution to American Democracy. Our scientists, this year of 1945-46, were for 12Z Mrs. Engelhardt and 12A Mr. Clendenin, who was replaced by Mr. Musselman after Christmas. ,lust before Christmas we had a farewell party for Mr. Clendenin, who left to go to higher institutions of learning. Harold Akers once again came to Muncy High and LeRoy Karschner left for the Army. The potential energy that for twelve years has been stored up is about to be exploded into a new type world. 26
