FIRST YEAR AT O.H.S. We, the freshmen, 51 in all, gazed upon that awe inspir- ing structure, the high school, with slight trepidation on that memorable August 31, 1943 morn, and finally the braver ones of our ranks lead inside. After our first few days of bewilderment, we began to realize that unorganized we could not stand, so turning to our adviser, Coach Stultz, we went into a huddle and came out with the following officers: president, George Keenan, vice president, Ronald Schuttieg secretary, Alice Burchettg treasurer, Helen Lindenang and serge ant-at-arms , Elmer Rachau. ' We were just beginning to decide that high school life was comparatively calm, after all, when our conclusions were swept to the wind by an enrush of initiating sophomores. Bedecked in everything but what we should have been, we were herded in a very impressive march through the very heart of Onalaska. we were individually put through the most ridicu- lous routines before the entire student body, and after an entire day of this treatment, our nerves ,were seuthed by a greatly apprediated initiation party. New we found our- selves ne longer treated as green recruits but rather as full fledged high school freshmen. A return party was in order, and we cane through with a very successful one. Duly initiated and accepted we launched forth on a full year of diligent study and participation in school activ- ities. we were handicapped by the departure of eleven of our class members during the year, but nevertheless we 20 freshmen were prominent in all possible activities. Edward Rogan achieved a rare honor by making a ' letter in beth football and baseball in his first year. Ronald Schuttie distinguished himself by earning his letter as a first string pitcher. George Keenan, and Ronald Kirkpatrick were also outstanding in the field of sports. Not to be out done by the boys, Anna Bingaman, Helen Lindeman,' Eileen Erickson, Beverly Judd, Alice Burchett, Viola Parnel, and Rosalind Davis made all of the girls in- tramural teams.
