, ..,.,..,.A x .3-frm-.'-,.,, J' dass History Way back in the year of our Lord 1936, fifty nine uneducated and unorganized students invad- ed the Ogden High School. History was in the making as this class was the largest ever to camp on Ogden High's doorstep. This clan elected as their leaders Kenneth Webber, President: Normand Davies, Vioe President: Edwin Anderson, Secretary and Treasurer, and as our chief, Miss Hauff. Im- mediately the group set out to conquer Science, Algebra, English, and Home Economics, or Latin. The Seniors took us in hand and attempted to re- fine us by an initiation. However, the attempt was rather futile for we were determined to ex- plore the highlights of high school. Eagerly we awaited the announcement of our first party. At last it came in the form of a skating enterprise at Perry. Due to the marriage of Miss I-Iauff, Miss Dye completed the year as our sponsor. Remember some of the Freshmen puppy-loves, such as Marion Wolber and Lorraine Wright, and when Lu Verne Thiessen's flame was Doris Claus- en? That IS history. We did up our Freshman year in a high way by holding our class picnic at Ledges. Alas! We forgot our weiners. What could you expect? VVe were only freshmen. After three months of roaming the country we again invaded the premises of good old O. H. S. But this year we were sophomores. Maynard Hammarstedt, Junior McMillian, Bonnie Williams, Janice Ohlson, Gladys Campbell, Floyd Hubby, William Shaw and Neva Knickerbocker had stray- ed from our group, but to replace them we cap- tured Janice Garland, Naomi Hicks and Bill Mur- dock. The leaders elected this year were Doris Clausen, President: Dorothy Donelson, Vice Presi- dent: Pat Tilley, Secretary and Treasurer, and Mr. Nelson, sponsor- One of the outstanding social events of the year was the sophomore scavenger hunt that was topped with a party at Mr. Nelson's cabin. How that Irish temper flared when Janice Garland was told to sit in the Freshman rows and she haughtily informed them she was a soph- omore. ' To climax our sophomore year we held our annual picnic at Ledges. After a lapse of three months we entered our Junior year with a much broader knowledge and understanding of the ways of the world. Our num- ber was decreased to fifty-one by the loss of Ruth Lamb. Jeanne Wilson was soon welcomed into our class as a new member. This was a big year! We began by electing Merle Sherbring, President: Doris Boehm, Vice President: Rosella Freie, Secretary land Treasur- er, and we had as our class sponsors, Miss Martin and Mr. Hammond. The first event on our social calendar was the Junior-Senior hunt. Eager and confident we set out to make a record breaking discovery but history repeated itself and the Juniors were un- successful in finding the Seniors. Consequently the treats were on us.
