SENIOR The clock on the tower of the high school read 8:15. Excited freshmen watched its huge hands as they ticked nearer the time when the doors of the school would be opened. Slowly, those hands seemed to move; and, when they reached the hour of 8:30, it was as if a new world had begun. The doors of the school were Hung open; the students pushed merrily to their home-rooms; that is, all except the freshmen, for the freshmen were lost. In all this turmoil of unfamiliar people and in an unfamiliar school, those undiscovered scholars moved shyly about hoping that some kind soul would recognize them and inform them as to where they were to lodge tor the next nine months. Those first four weeks were the most trying on that class of 1945, but all 109 of them soon became accustomed to the school and its operation, and they settled down to a year of study and enjoyment. Since every class has its executive committee, the freshmen, like their big sisters and brothers, elected their class officers. Virginia Schneider was chosen to be the president of the class; Ann Stritt- holt was her able assistant; Lela Clark kept the minutes of the meetings. twhich were very fewl; and Marian Nieporte had charge of the treasury Joyce Myers was elected to represent the freshmen class on the Student Council in that school year of 1941-42. The freshmen students participated in many varied organizations, :1 few of which were the Stamp Club, Girl Reserves, Glee Club, Better Speech Club, and the Band. hlany of the boys were accepted on the iootball and basketball teams, and they displayed, in these sports, their zrliility which was going to be recognized by all in the later years of their high school life. As for the girls, a basket- ball team was organized; but because of their lack of experience and stiff competition from the other class teams, not many games were won. The months rolled by very quickly. The freshmen gained more and more knowledge every day They had enjoyed their hrst year of high school life but, like all students, were eager for the summer vacation to begin. That year had taught those tenderfeet :1 great deal. They were now :1 part of the high school world. They began to realize the importance of :1 credit toward their graduation, which appeared to them to be far off in the future. They learned to be proud to sing,r their school song, and they learned the custom of the school to stand when the song was sung. They learned to use the correct Hight of stairs at the correct time. They learned to love the dear old school itself. Those freshmen had proven themseleves to be true freshmen, and they were now ready to advance into their sophomore year. In all the confusion and excitement of advancing from one class to the next, several of the mem- bers of the class of 1945 were lost on the way. When school resumed in ,42, only 89 students were present, including Bud lVIart and Jim Dickman, who were new members that year. The class of ,4-5 was sorry to lose twenty of its brothers and sisters; however, it plunged in the tasks ahead by selecting its board of directors. A happyugo-lucky sort of a chap by the name of Gene Ohert stepped into the oHice of president of the Class. Jim Dickman, the newcomer that year, was voted vieetpresi- dent. Fred Strittholt gathered his pencil and paper, for he was chosen secretary and treasurer. The sophomores were permitted to send two delegates to the Student Council. Dick Huffmann and Dan Costa were chosen to represent that sophomore Class. Something wonderful happened that year to the sophomore boys. They were awarded a beauti- ful plaque for having collected the greatest number of keys when a key-drive was held at N.C.Hr The members of the class of ,45 were equally as industrious as they were studious, and these two assets, working hand in hand with each other, made that sophomore class tops, said they. Elmer Glasmeier and Sylvia Tiefermann stepped into the roles of cheerleaders that year. Dur- ing three years they led the students in yells and cheers supporting the teams of the schOOl. T0 the sophomores, the junior and senior years of school were the most glamorous of all. In fact the mere thought of soon becoming juniors made those sophomores more anxious then ever to begin their next year of high school. eel 2e
