CLASS HISTORY The members of the class of 1949 were first organized inSeptember 1945, under the able direction of Mrs. Helen McGinnis. There were twenty-eight of us from New Straitsville Elementary School, St. Augustine Parochial School, and Maxville Elementary School. Our class officers were: President, Dolores Coakleyg Vice- President, Bill Rushiag Secretary, David Jones: and Treasurer, Nancy Hartman. Our Freshrnan class had a larger number of members in the band than did any other class in school. Dues were assessed at the rate of twenty-five cents for each six-weeks period. We made money by selling high school badges. Our Halloween Dance was considered a great success since all reported a good time and the financial returns helped to swell our treasury. We received our share of the profits from the operetta, SUNBONNET SUE. We became Sophomores in 1946 and our class officers were: President, Don Brown, Vice-President, Fred Aukerg Secretary, Ramona Mohler, and Treasurer, Roy Grandy. This year there were 26 members in our class. we brought the same amount for dues this year. Also, to increase our bank balance, we sold Scarlet and Gray pennants. Due to a shortage of teachers this year our class had many advisors. These advisors were: Mrs. Esther Bigley, Mrs. Irmgard Terrell, Mrs. Lottie Porter. and Miss Elizabeth Robinson. Our Junior year started in 1947. Our class enrollment was decreasing every yearg we now had only 20 members. Our class officers were: President, Roy Grandyg Vice-P resident, C arolyn Howdyshellg Secretary, Laura Louise Eckhartg and Treasurer Jo Ann Ennis. Our Junior Class Play, THE CHARMING INTRUDERU, was directed by Miss Joan Tharp. We gave a reception for the Seniors on May 14, 1948. We pur- chased beanies to sell at the home basketball games for the 1947-1948 season. Some of the members of the Junior English C lass, with the help of our Junior C lass Advisor, Mr. Edgar Kellar, published THE SCARLET AND GRAY, our first school paper in several years. To enlarge our treasury, we sold pop and potato chips at the basket- ball games. After three years of studying, we reached our Senior year. We now had 17 members. Our Senior Class officers were: President, Ramona Mohlerg Vice- President, Harry Strain,Jr.5 Secretary, Nancy Hartmang Treasurer, Bill Rushia. This year we were represented in the operetta, WILD ROSE. We gave our Senior Class Play, TOBY HELPS OUT , on December lO, 1948. It was also directed by Miss Joan Tharp. We gave a very successful candy sale and bake sale with the help of our Senior Class Advisor, Miss Edna Price. We sold pencils in our school colors this year. From these activities, we obtained a rather large sum which, with the dues collected in both Junior and Senior years, we intend to use to take a trip. Our destina- tion is yet unknown. ---Jo Ann Ennis 12
