FRESHMEN CLASS HISTORY On the first day of school, August 214, 19145, there were seventeen members of the Freshman Class. About two weeks later, we underwent the punishment of initiation. 'Ihe girls had to come to school with no makeup and straight hair. They wore logger boots, short skirts, blouses wrong-side out, and they had to bow to each Sophomore they met. That night when the initiation party was held, each Freshman was required to perform a consequence. When the party was over, the Freshmen had to do the dishes. Our class officers of the first semester were elect- ed as followsg President, Clifford Perkins, Vice-pres., Leota Willhiteg Secretary, Norma Hill. For the second semester we elected President, Norma Hillg Vice-pres., Madolynne Christensen and Barbara Baker as Secretary. In February of l9h6 the Freshmen gave an assembely. Some of the numbers were: a skit by Philip Johnson, a song by the Sophomore boysg a solo by Oril Tblmang a duet by Jerry Ellsworth and Barbara Bakery and numerous other numbers. At the school carnival Norma Hill was elected queen for the Freshman class. we have been very happy in our first year of High School and we hope to have many new members in the years to come.
