CLASS HISTORY It was a beautiful morning that day in September 1939 when we started our first year in school. With Mrs. Nichols as our teacher we learned to read and write. One of us at one time or another was talking and as a result somebody was always being punished. The roll call was as follows: Jackie Adler, Edith Bartman, Virginia Faircloth, Wanda Hall, Frances Kiley,Barbara Lesick, Caroline Manee, Edna Mc- Neill, Audrey Stout, Ruth Zeleny, Herb Baron, Tom Goff, Charles Golet, Alan Kiley, Bob Mitchell, Edward Rarus, Fred Reidinger, Bob Robida, Walt Urban, Teddy Shumbo, and Bob Yindra. We entered the second grade with Mrs. Thomas 'as our teacher. We had a pleasant year. This year we met Joan Hitriz, Ann Jenckes, Mae Way, Gail Burdick, and Elwin Rutty. We were met in the third grade by Mrs. Graham, now Mrs. Peck. During the year we learned arithmetic and geography. Because Walt Urban and Ruth Zeleny had scarlet fever, our class was quarantined and we had a two week stay at home which none of us regretted. We added to our growing class, Pryde Bean, Olin Usher, and Donald Hobart. During the year Joan Hitriz, Carolyn Manee, and Mae Way left us. In the fourth grade we struggled with our multiplication tables. Mrs. Bohn, our teacher, taught us how to knit and we made a blanketz The surprising thing about making it was that the boys knitted more than the girls. Mabel Pasquerell, the DiBernaidi sisters, Florence Zirnmermium, and Walter Canfield joined us. We entered the fifth grade with Mrs. Thurott, as our teacher. All through the year we learned about the other countries and we also made individual scrap books. This year, we added to our class, Julius Schwab. We lost Teddy Shumbo, Eddie Rarus, Elwin Rutty, Olin Usher, and Donald Hobart. We also lost several girls, the DiBernaidi sisters, and Florence Zimmermiurn. In the sixth grade we learned about Mexico and other South American coun- tries from Mrs. Shanaghan. This year we learned how to draw and made a big mural. Now we were ready for our big step, our entrance into Junior High School. At last, after six long years, we left the grade side and entered the seventh grade. Mrs. MacDermott was our home room teacher, but due to illness, she had to leave us. She was replaced by Mr. Graham under whose leadership we finished the year. To the roll we added Paul Palmer, Joan Schur, and James Slahtosky. Herb Baron left us to seek his fortune in California. 23

We lost James Slahtosky, Anna Jenckes, Mabel Pasquerell, and Gail Burdick. Nowwe were ready for the goal of all students, High School. In our first year of high school we were greeted by Mr. Janiga. Harry Zoccoli, Jimmy Hill, Beatrice Lieber and Gloria Pendleton joined our class. The year was marked by numerous chalk and eraser fights. We were initiated with the usual lipstick, odd display in dress and continual obedience to the juniors. One of our classmates, Alan Kiley, was thrown into the pond. After this display, initiations stopped. Our class officers were as follows: President, Paul Palmerg Vice President, Walt Urban: Secretary, Ruth Zelenyg Treasurer, Bob Mitchell. We were greeted in the tenth grade by Mrs. MacDermott. The officers were: President, Bob Mitchellg Vice President, Walt Urban: Secretary, Ruth Zeleny, Treasurer, Paul Palmer. We put on our Sophomore Hop and it proved to be very successful. We lost from our class Harry Zoccoli, Jimmy Hill, Tommy Goff and Julius Schwab. We came to the junior year with Mrs. Kabara as our guide. We elected Walter Urban, Presidentg Audrey Stout, Vice Presidentg Ruth Zeleny, Secretary, Wanda Hall Treasurer. We started early and worked hard on our Junior Prom, which turned out to be one of the best the school has ever had. Gail Burdick joined us once again, and Walter Canfield and Gloria Pendleton left. We finally reached the senior year with Mr. Kozak as our advisor. We elected Bob Yindra, President: Charles Golet, Vice Presidentg Ruth Zeleny, Secretaryg and Frances Kiley, Treasurer. Roger Snell and Herbert Baron joined us while Gail Burdick left. We worked hard all through the year to raise money for our Washington trip. By April we had enough money and on the sixteenth we left for Washington with Mr. and Mrs. Bockstein as chaperones. We had an eventful trip, and when we returned. we got back to things at state, but soon we had to prepare for graduation, And here we are before you tonight waiting for our diplomas. 24
