February Class Cast Will and Testament This is the last will and testament of the February Graduating Class of 1939. In keeping with this modern time Our will is partly done in rhyme. We of the February Class, do hereby leave to our friends of the June Class, The chance to graduate in peace and without confusion, WITH our consent, but WITHOUT our intrusion. To the Juniors—we leave our desks, at which we have ceased to work, including the attached chewing gum, at which we have ceased to work. To the Sophomores— We bequeath the school, Walls, halls and bleachers; The football field, the swimming pool, And a flock of darned swell teachers (now that we're leaving). To the Freshies—Our deepest sympathy; also a hope that your portion of major obstacles will be as skimpy the skirts worn by some of you infants. To the janitors—we leave the job of cleaning up after us. To the lunch room—our last quarter (they usually got it anyway). To the school and especially the Drama department—we leave proceeds from the class play for the new curtain. To the faculty—we leave the right to (and dare them to) show us a group of students who appreciates their interest, efforts and patience more than we do, and with much love, we leave them the honor of having been OUR teachers. Last but not least, we leave the school, still standing on its foundation; a monument of America’s standard of lifting her children onto the very highest possible plane. We leave therefore, our deep appreciation and gratitude, to our wonderful country, our beloved parents, and to those friends and counselors, our teachers and the Board of Education. In witness whereof, we do hereby affix our hand this 18th day of January, 1939. Jean Fessenden Bob Todd William Wadsworth Witness: Miss Sutor Mr. Dunn

National Honor Society FEBRUARY CLASS OF 1939 Admission to the National Honor Society is one of the highest honors which may come to the graduating senior. Members are chosen from the upper sixth of the class. Eligibility is determined by scholarship, leadership, service, and character. The invitation to membership and the initiation ritual is a major feature of Class Day. The Parent Teacher’s Association contributes to the cost of the pins presented to each new member. From the February Class of 1939 these students were elected to membership: Melvin Browning, Betty Ferguson, Jean Fessenden, Betty Fisher, LaVerne Fisgus, Betty Gorsuch, Dorothy Lapp, Margie McGowan, and Leila Sides. 26
