SENIOR HISTORY They had told us td.es of horror about high school--- those wicked upperclassmen. They had filled our hearts with feerg our steps with hesitation. , That first morning in 1939 was e memorable one. We were all prepared for the worst, but we found that high school wesn't half es bad as we had anticipated. That is, we thought so until Friday October 13--initiation. Well, after that we decided that strong lenders were necessary to pro- vide us with some protection. Those that seemed well quel- ified were: president,Violet Jncobseng vice president, Betty Osborng secretary-treasurer, Nnioy Cerlisleg sgt.-at-arms, Wendell Beckwith. Mr. Scheele was our advisor. we fared well that first year, and wont beck for more in September 1940. This time we found thot we were among the upper ranks, and could take out our revenge for the pre- vious year on that new class of Fresh. Those selected to Lied us in our sophomore year were:prcsident, Mesemi Kiyone vice president, Richard Brewng secretary, Bette Brenneisg treasurer, Rose Flemingg sgt.-at-arms, Allen Linn. Many of the boys were active in sports, and e number of girls also earned letters in athletics. The rank ef upperclessmen attracted us, end once more, in September l94l, we stood before the door of O.3.S., and felt it beckoning us. This yeer we selected es our leaders, president, Jean Arneldg vice president, James Burnsideg secretary, Alice Bleirg treasurer, Richerd Browng sgt.-et- arms, Dale Woody .and Gloss Representative, Bette Brenneis.
