DIPLOMA HOUR There are forty-three students in the class of 1945. Twenty-two are girls and twenty-one are boys. The valedictorian is Paul Bourne, the salutatorian is Roberta Hively. During the past twenty-two years the valedictorian has been a boy seven times, the salutatorian has been a girl twelve times. Rev. Richard S. Reilly is awarded a diploma with the class of 1945. Most of his work was done in other schools. Since the high school was organized in 1894, there have been a total of 1527 graduates. Since 1925 the general average of every graduate has been calculated to three decimal places, and his rank in his class determined and made a matter of permanent record. Twelve years ago sixty-five children were enrolled in the first grade. Of these sixty-five, twenty-eight are on the platform tonight. Three are still undergraduates, twenty have moved from our city, nine have dropped out, three are in the service, and one is in college. Much as these 65 are scattered, in one instance five, and in another instance six, senior names appear in the same consecutive order as in their first grade register. To the twenty-eight now graduating, who were in the original class of 1933, fifteen others have been added: one entered school in 1932, six entered the class in grades two to eight, five entered as freshmen and three as seniors. The following have excelled in attendance: seven have missed less than ten days. Those who have missed less than five days up to April 3 are: Keith Miller, 0, Dorothy Sheets, 1 1f3g Roy Pfeiffer 4K3 Roberta Hively, 4 5f6. Keith Miller is the only graduate with a perfect record of attendance. The average age of the boys is 17 years 11 months and 4 days. The average age of the girls is 17 years 11 months and 29 days. Only one former class of boys f1929jwas younger than this group. The average age of boys in the class of 1929 was 17 years 10 months and 15 days. Birthdays are evenly distributed, although January with live is high and October with two is low. There are twins on tlnauguration Day, March 4, June 10, and July 12. One boy was born Dec. 31, 1926, and another Jan. 1, 1927-in different years but one day apart. Birthdays are well scattered throughout the months, but 21st, 20th, 10th and 1st are most numerous. Carol Pletcher is the baby of the class. Her age is 17 years 2 months and 21 days. The second youngest is Lois Metzler, who is 1 month and 10 days older than Carol.
