In September, 19lj.7, we embarked on our career as high school students. After choosing class officers and electing Mr. Dinzler as adviser, we settled down to await initiation. When that was over we sold Naples Central emblems sponsored an Armistice Day Dance, and an indoor hillbilly circus. During our second year of high school we sought revenge on the freshmen, for what the sophomores of the previous year had done to us. Shortly afterward, we ordered class sweaters, which were gray and maroon. Other activities which we undertook were sponsoring movies and dances. Our first class assembly was very successful and we all had a great deal of fun in preparing it. Our officers for the junior year were: Jim Putnam, President; Ramona Ostrander, Vice-President; Melvin Snyder, Secretary; Loretta Shepard, Treasurer; Don Braun and Evelyn Gardner, Student Council, aides; with Mr. Dinzler elected class adviser. After Jim Putnam moved to Florida, Ramona Ostrander became our president. The greatest thrill coming to any junior class occurs when class rings arrive; and since we are no different from other classes, this was, by far, ours. All the rings had the same pattern, but some were plain gold; others had ruby or blue spinel settings; and a few were inlaid with onyx On October 7 we sponsored a dance with the Old Time Moun- taineers Orchestra. Thus far, we have had three paper collections, the first one being the best, having netted $35 to our treasury. We have sold popcorn and fudge at three home basketball games, and before Christmas we sold Christmas trees, with Don Braun a3 chairman of this campaign. Sponsoring a movie has been another pro- ject on our list. We are planning for future activities, ono of which is a dance to be held in March. Meanwhile, we 11 be working harder toward our goal----graduation----and then our New York trip. 22

During our freshman year our officers were as follows: President, Erwin Drake; Vice-President, Jack Potter; Secretary, Nancy Seager, Treasurer, Betty Allen. Under the advisership of Miss Bingenheimer, we made a reasonable profit on all our money making projects which were; selling candy at two home basketball games, the sale of children s books and sponsoring a movie. We also had a successful dance in April which began the April Annual of the Class of 52. After summer vacation we returned to school for another eventful year. We elected new officers but kept the adviser, who had faithfully worked with us through our first year of high school, Miss Bingen- heimer. Our present officers are: President, Stuart Fleischman; Vice- President, Richard Riesenberger; Secretary, Helen Schultz; Treasurer, Richard Konz. Freshman initiation was our first and foremost activity. We had a hilarious time bringing those truants before court and sentencing them for their various petty crimes. We also sold basketball schedule pencils, and Naples Central School tape,and candy at the last three home games as another means of adding to our treasury. A dance in April was the second of a series of April Annual of the Class of 52. Two more years of hard work and pleasure combined are still ahead of us and we are looking forward to them. Then, when we are rewarded for our efforts, we will remember the enjoyable years we spent in Na- ples Central. 23
