Sesu i GIgAA Ojflfice iA, President - Tom Shook Vice President - Edward Walker Secretary-Treasurer - Grace Vines ’J9— As freshmen. tin class chose Mr. Lacko for their class advisor. The class officers were: Corenlia Rydesky, John Foster, and Jean Garland. March 3, 1939, our Freshman Dance was held in the gym, which was decorated with balloons. We weren’t expert dancers th.cn, but everyone had a wonderful time. ’40—At last, Sophomores! llow small the Freshies seemed then. Robert Niles, Andrew Rules, and Bvrnece Vogt were chosen as the officers of the year. The Harvest season was climaxed by a Harvest Dance on Nov. 22. Never could a season lx feted more completely. “There ought to be one crowning event of this year,” is just what every one echoed. The crowning event was a Sophomore Hop on May 17. The “Hop' was the first semiformal dance the class had. The Little gym looked like a flower garden with its pasted decorations and blossoming young maidens swirling about the floor with radiant young fellows What a full year 1940 has been. Can high-school possibly hold more? '41—Who’s that fellow rushing through the one-way hall the wrong way How did that pretty young girl ever find H-3I Yes, the Woodlawnites were puzzled by Muiiha.il at first, but they soon felt right at home. The class was now-full grown and there were many exciting duties to be undertaken. Just as President Roosevelt went in for his third term, so did Hill Dougherty take over the office of class President. Chuck Harry and Grace Vines were elected vice-president and secretary-treasurer. There certainly was plenty for the officers to do with such an active class. “Are you sure? The Juniors are ‘Footloose’,” February 27-2S. Yes, “Footloose” was a three-act comedy that packed the auditorium both nights. Those seniors certainly have shed all their responsibilities on us; I guess we're really at the top now ! '42—Getting back to school as sophisticated seniors was an exciting event. Where could all those green underclassmen have come from? Many social events made the year pass all too quickly. We were now-passing responsibilities on to the Juniors and smiling at their exalted ego. Uppermost in our minds was the war we had to win and the boys from our class who had volunteered their services. There was much to be done and we were going to be the ones to do it! Perhaps somewhere along the way the class of ’42 has left its mark. t ii i: I 51 4 2 M U I S k O 19
