CLASS HISTORY Once upon a time, twelve years ago, in fact, we wandered into Miss Hubbard's first grade room to behold the first steps in education. We mastered such arts as the alphabet and the addition and subtraction of numerical combinations, Soon we moved to the second grade room across the hall. Our guide here was Miss Cole. The new students this year were Dean Hansen and Virginia Ray. Mrs. Stentz entered our lives on the third rung of the ladder, and we welcomed Gloria Chase to our midst. The teachings of Miss Burke were appreciated in the fourth grade. Slowly, but sure- ly, we were advancing up that long ladder. Variety is the spice of life, and we found our variety in the many teachers we had in the fifth grade. Miss Upton, Mrs. Swearingen, Mrs. Scheid and Mrs. White took their turns at trying to teach us. Nathan Potts and Betty Showers became fellow members. Allen Keifer, Dale Morey, Marilyn Massie and Dale Luxon joined us as we rejoiced in the thought of being the oldest students in the building. Mrs. Wisler, Mrs. Gharst, and Mr. Chase taught us some more of the fundamental subjects. Having our classes in the high school building and greeting Dixie Hyatt into our class were new to us in the seventh grade. Our home room teacher was Mr. Rogers, who helped us enjoy our first night class parties. Miss Murphy was our adviser in the eighth grade. Here we experienced our first graduation. We turned from our grade school days to the exciting high school career. Fitehville, Hartland, and Clarksfield contributed Lucille Atkinson, George Benear, Gerald Case, Duane Davis, Irene Earl, Barbara Ellinwood, Fred Gibson, jim Kearney, Gordon Marett, LaDonna Moffit, Tom Nestor, Dorothy Ryan, Creighton Staschke, Don Everman and Carl Cawrse. Mr. Semilia took care of our many headaches in the fresh- man class. When we advanced to the sophomore home room, we had Mr. Schmidt as our ad- viser. Oron Wilcox and Betsy Western increased our enrollment. Everyone helped in the drive for scrap which helped boost our treasury. Our junior year was quite active and very nice. Vivian Conklin came to us by the addition of Rochester to the New London School District. We added to our treasury by working at football and basketball games. Among the social events of this year was our junior Thanksgiving dance. We worked diligently to prepare for the Junior-Senior Prom. VVe used the theme Under the Sea, which turned the gymnasium into a very lovely Under the Sea atmosphere. Then we enjoyed working together to present Cheaper by the Dozen . We had an exchange student from Germany with us our last year. We enjoyed having Erwin Scheder with us. Edgar Denger, Morris VVolfe, Mary Lou Garrison and Dick I-lines left in the grade school to resume their studies at Hartland and then joined us once again in their fresh- man vear. Ralph Westfall started with us, but left to join the Fitchville Grade School. I-Ie, too, came back later on in the school career.
