In 1911, New Haven High School was established with an enrollment of 50 students. Mr. B. H. Smith was prin- cipal, and in 1913, four people received diplomas as the first gradu- ating class. Today around 200 will graduate in May 1976. Always accomplish a little more and be somewhat superior to the pre- ceeding class, but by all means be original. This was the advice given by the class of ' 23, to the remaining classes in NHHS. On November 30, 1923, the bas- ketball team started the season by defeating Woodburn 51-13. The sea- son went by with 10 games played; New Haven won seven. In 1 920, the Girls Athletic Associa- tion was originated with basketball the only sport. One evening a week was devoted to practice; the season ended with five wins. From 191 1 to 1976 there has been approximately 7900 graduated from New Haven High. If all goes on schedule, the class of 1977 will be graduating from the new New Haven High School. That Down Home Feeling . . , It was some year. It saw New Haven record a 6-4 season in football.

It ' s 3:1 7 on a Friday afternoon and those students who have stayed a- round for the activity period are busily contemplating the course of activities planned for the upcoming weekend, while some seniors who failed to neg- otiate the twenty-five minute naptime are already indulging in the frolics of weekend nieana. As the clock on the wall clicks to 3: 1 8, a passer by would tend to wonder what a normal student would do on a normal run of the mill weekend. The answer to that ques- tion is really quite elementary, noth- ing. A thriving midwestern community such as New Haven, has basically, nothing to offer the adolescent citizen that isn ' t illegal, immoral or costs you an arm and a leg. So whatever the student has planned for a weekend is really a product of long studious men- tal labor, which indirectly finally reveals some relevance to Friday activity period, it gives students time to plan for the Friday — Saturday — Sunday, mini-vacation.
