CLASS HISTORY In the fall of 1944, Mrs. Henri Etta Ferguson greeted thirty-two frightened youngsters whose names were finally learned to be: Jim Alexander, Eddie Clark, Jeanette Clements, Jane Cloncs, Nancy Davis, Dianne Delashmit, Rita Hunt, Dick McDonald, Ronnie Whiles, Frank Whiles, Jimmy Smith, Bill Arnold, Chuck Arnold, Morris Lee Barker, Max Blackmore, Millie Brunner, Junior Cox, Danny Lee Gearld, Betty Lorene Gordon, Tommy Goode, Wilma Murry, John Murry, Sandra Murphy, Sandra Sue Miller, Danny Robbins, Bill Rawlings, Robert Russell, Robert Scott, Donald Stewart, Gene Vann, Clay Warren, and Mary Jane Williams. By the time we reached the second grade we were a little more used to this strange business of school, Our teacher was Mrs. Merle Soots. Although we lost Bill Arnold, Chuck Arnold, Morris Barker, Junior Cox, Wilma Murry, John Murry, Sandra Murphy, Danny Robbins, Robert Scott, and Donald Stewart, we gained Versie Capps, Dalpha Warren, Frank Thompson, and Larry Kelley. In the third grade Mrs. Ruby Everman was teaching us more of readin', 'ritin', and 'rithmetic. William Farr, Allyn Hograve, and Nancy Miller joined our class and Robert Scott rejoined us. Morris Lee Barker and Max Blackmore left us in this grade. In the fourth grade Keith Ward was added to our class and by the fifth grade Eugene Ralston, Richard Spelich, Howard Emberton and Eileen Weidman had also arrived. Lost during that time were: Versie Capps, William Farr, Tommy Goode, Betty Lorene Gordon, Danny Lee Gerald, Robert Russell, Robert Scott and Gene Vann. Mrs. Genevieve Owen and Mrs. Julia Nay were our teachers in the fourth and fifth grades respectively. We enjoyed our second year up stairs in the sixth grade and the boys started playing basketball on their own team. Mr. Gossett was our home-room teacher. Sandra Sue Miller and Eugene Ralston moved away and we welcomed Lanny Wilson to the class in this grade. Mr. Kloster was our teacher in the seventh grade. We began our Junior High activities including basketball and track. It must have been in this grade that our class spirit developed' for we attended basketball games and rooted enthusiastically for the team. The only changes in the class were: New- -Barbara Million, Thomas Howard, Nancy Emmert, and Betty Ewbank. Eugene Ralston rejoined our group and Howard Emberton moved away. Our last year in the grades was one of anticipation. Yell leaders were elected from our grade for the Junior High. They were: Betty Ewbank, Eileen Weidman, and Mary Jane Williams, all of whom later moved away. Linda Birdsong and Shirley Delp moved to North Salem and joined our class. Robert Barnhart, Clay and Dalpha Warren, and Barbara Million left us this year. What a thrill when we were finally Freshmen! Some of the new Freshies were even afraid to go into the high school building but with the help of some upper classmen we finally got there. When the first bell rang we all dashed off in different directions. We finally met back in the middle of the hall and turned for help to Mrs. Hanna, who could only say, I'm new here, too. Little did we know then that she would be our sponsor throughout high school. The upper classmen had thoughtfully written on the study hall board. Welcome, Freshies . We were to wonder whether they really meant it in the next two weeks as we went through initiation. What a sight we must have been with costumes all the way from a little baby to an eskimo. During the summer months we picked up Dan Broughton and Richard Lowe and they went through initiation, too. Frank Barnhart, Shirley Delp, Betty Ewbank, and Richard Spelich missed this torture since they moved away this year. Norman Breurer and Helen Bannerman were here during part of this year. No longer green Freshmen we started to enjoy a more sensible school routine our Sophomore year. The high spot this year that every senior remembers was the time that the heat went off in the building. In the chilly air we sang songs, danced and carried on in a most unscholarly manner. Also this year we avenged our initiation on our under- classmen. We were the last class to have this opportunity. We can never forget the fun we had in the old high school building-the fun at noon-time upstairs in the gym, playing ping-pong and learning to dance, the back-stage stairs we ran up and down, the rickety old staircase we leaned against and did our gossiping, and the coatrack that was always in our way when the bell rang. We are thankful that we have had two years in the old building and two years in the new. Larry Laudig and Don Casteel were new this year and Howard Thomas, Norman Brewer and Helen Bannerman left us. We entered the new building as Juniors and prepared ourselves for a very active year. Selling candy at noon, and at the home ballgames kept us busy. Some of the boys fixed up the old popcorn popper and we served freshly popped popcorn at the games. We had the honor of presenting the first Junior Play in the new building, which everyone said was one of the most outstanding high school plays they had ever seen, To go with our gray and blue class sweaters which we got last year we ordered class rings with blue sets. We were sorry to lose Eileen Weidman and Eugene Ralston at the end of the first semester. Judy Selch was welcomed to our class at the beginning of the second semester. After careful planning we made arrangements for our Junior-Senior reception, which was held at the Riviera Club in Indianapolis. As a beginning we enjoyed an afternoon of indoor swimming. We adopted a Hawaiian theme and carried it throughout the banquet and dance. We will remember this evening with a great deal of pleasure in the years to come A record of our Senior activities can be found in the School Calendar. There were no additions to our class this year but during the summer Millie Brunner was married and did not return to school.
