CLASS HISTORY Way back in the year of 1945, the class of 56 started its journey through the school assembly line. Members of the original crew of the class of 56 include: Janice Bauer, Richard Bilton, jim Brown, Art Campbell, Louise Denslow, Bill Dunn, Dean Em- erson, Lila Hcitsche, Margaret Hess, Bill King, Susan Lawrence, john Marctt, Beverly NlcQuate, David O'Hara, Barbara Patchen, Pat Perkins, Doris Poole, Ron Runkle, Marie Springer, Barbara Stone, Doug Tulk and Bruce Upton. The chief foremen moving the class along the assembly line were Miss Hubbard and Mrs. Coleman. In the second grade the class continued its trek under the steady hand of Mrs. Brad-v ish. There were no new additions to our hard working class this year. Tom Burrows was added to our closely knit cog in the third grade. We had a rough time with the subtraction problems that Mrs. Cannon and Mrs. Finkel gave us. Miss Paddock and Mrs. Robbins greeted us and three new members, Howard Duta, Ruth Keifer, and Anita Westfall in the fourth grade. Multiplication along with English was drilled into us as the tempo increased. In the fifth grade geography was a new and startling change to our assembly line. Glen Stewart came to us from Anderson, Indiana. I-Ie, with the rest of us, was put to work by Mrs. Charst. In the sixth Grade we were the wheels of the elementar buildin . Mrs. Wisler rs Y 8 was given the job of controling us this year. The seventh grade was our first year in the Big Plant. We were always late to our classes and forgetting our study hall desk numbers. Cal Cole was our only new hand in this year. After a trying year in the eighth grade came the biggest thrill of our career thus far, graduation from elementary school. Now we were promoted to a new job. This was the job of being ninth graders in the high school building, lowly freshmen.. In our ninth year everyone made new friends and acquaintances with the students who came to replenish our class from Clarksfield, Hartland, Fitehville, and Rochester. The mem- bers who joined us this year were: Barbara Blaha, Shirley Byron, Sue Case, Don Chand- let, Howard Cramer, Donna Davis, Donna Foster, Art Franks, Joyce Franklin, Howard Kessler, Ioan Kooken, Peggy Meloy, Carol Meyer, Janice Oney, June Ryan, Barbara Stiles, Dorothy Story, Rodney Streng, and Rosalie Wilson. No new students were added in our tenth year along the assembly line. Many of our students were now assigned special jobs such as football, basketiball, chorus, band, track and many other jobs. In this year the plant CNew London HighD joined a new syndicate, the Lakeland Conference. In our junior year Roger Fowler joined the crew which was now working on assign- ments like they were robots. In this, our twelfth and final year, Fritz Sauer, fresh from a trip to Germany, joined our class as did Luetta Caton and Orlie Close. This brings the membership of the Class of 1956 to a grand total of 52. The 55-56 school year has brought a great many lasting and cherished memories that we will keep for years. We have the distinction of being the last class to graduate from the high school of the old New London Local School District. just as we leave school, the districts of Clarksfield, Fitchville and New London are involved in the process of consolidation.
