CLASS HISTURY On the seventh day of September of 1950 the class of 1954 entered the New Knoxville High School. Our class consisted of eleven girls and sixteen boys. We had fourteen members of our class in chorus and ten in the band. We also had nine boys out for basketball and six out for baseball. During the year we lost one member of our class, Robert Eisert, who found other interests. In the fall of 1951 we entered the Sophomore Class with twenty-four members. Pat McCue moved back to her home in Connecticut and Vernon Stienecker found new interests. Our class took an active part in school activi- ties. We had eight boys playing basketball and four on the baseball team. We also had interest in music, for we had fourteen in the chorus and thirteen in the band. The two flag bearers and a cheerleader were also in our class. On September 2, 1953, We had twenty-four members in our class. Our class had seven boys participating in sports. There were fourteen in chorus and band. There also were two cheerleaders elected from our class. On the seventeenth of October we presented Excuse Me Please, which was a great success. Also on May first we presented the lunior-Senior Reception in honor of the Seniors. During the year we lost Don McCullough and Carl McCune who took up farming. The Senior Class of 1954 entered their last year of school life with twenty-three pupils. Our class took an active part in sports and music as we had done in the first three years in high school. During the year Larry Westbay joined the Armed Services so we only had twenty-two members left in our class. On the twenty-sixth of March the Seniors presented Mother is a Freshman, a three-act comedy, which was a great success. 22
