X 1 ,cflxf .SSP F . I'd like to tell you a story. It's about me and some of my friends, and it all started about thirteen years ago. One day in August my mommie dressed me in my best clothes and told me I was going to go to school. Oh, I was so thrilled and excited! I I even let mommie comb my hair! I ran happily out the door, but when I turned to wave good-bye to mommie I became very worried. She seemed to be so happy to see me go! How- ever, my sorrows soon left when I arrived at school and found several little girls and boys who were just my age. It wasn't long before I learned all of their names. The girls were: Eleanor Gillespie, Glorianne Gross, Jean Krumm, Viola Lidtka, Norita Long, Edna Moore, and Barbara Sutten, and the boys were Walter Brown and Larry Collumn. It seems as though I always liked the second semester of primary better than the first. Maybe it was because a real cute little boy, Delmar Sharp, joined us. I was sorry, though, to see Edna and Larry leave us. XiW Clms History S After our first few years of school all of us children seemed to be quite well adjusted to our new life. But when we reached the third grade we had to adjust all over again. You see that was when Kenneth Sutten joined our merry little group. Ronald Nott also joined us that year. The next few years passed very rapidly. In the sixth grade we were very happy to welcome Henrietta Hauersperger who had migrated from Gilman. Finally our big year was approaching. We were graduating from the eighth grade!! We had made it, and now we could go into the assembly and really live our last four years of school fat least that's what we thoughtj. We came to school the next year all set to have the time of our lives. And what did we find? We weren't allowed to have recesses. And worse than that, we couldn't chew gum! We were terribly disappointed , but nevertheless we liked high school. We had quite a large Freshman Class. There were seventeen of us: Walter Brown, Glorianne Gross, Jean Krumm, Ronald Nott, Henrietta I-Iauersperger, Delrnar Sharp, Kenneth Sutten, Barbara Sutten, Dale Cooling, Jerry Fuller, Loretta Graham, Helen Schnell, Donnavee Keenan, Dean Goodrich, Jon Wright, Eleanor Gillespie, and Virginia Garrett. Now, as we prepare to graduate, we find that eleven of those seventeen Freshmen have been faithful all four years of high school: Walter, Ronald, Henrietta, Jean, Delmar, Loretta, Helen, Eleanor, Dale, Kenneth, and Barbara. During our high school years we all had our ups and downs, but we always managed to come out on top. We are anxiously looking forward to starting out in the world on our own, but we will always remember the happy times, as well as the sad times, that we had at our dear old alma mater, Newburg Consolidated School. - -Barbara Sutten
