H:zs..,yg.,1 vmezlff Hi folks! Here I am again ready to take you back through the years to 1947 . This was the year my pet class entered high school. The reason I speak so highly of this class is that it is the apple of' my eye. You know, I've been with this group ever since they were fre'shies, and I, although unknown to them, am the one who has been responsible for all their actions. On the bright sunny morning of September 3 my favorite class en- tered the school as Freshmen. There were fifty-one students in the class, and it was a riot watching them running through the halls, trying to find their right classrooms. In a few weeks or so, they finally settled down. Since the class was so large, it was divided into two groups under the super-- vision of Miss Witchey and Miss Bittinger. Amidst the busy days, time was taken to elect class- oflicers. They were as follows: President, John Shulickg Vice-President, Jack Fritz: Secretary, Joan Wilsong Treasurer, Mary Marko. Since Christmas was drawing near and the freshies had been very studious, I urged them to celebrate the Christmas season. with a party on December 17th. As all teen-agers. they frolicked and ate to their hearts' content. On January 22 and 23 my group made their first attempt at dram- atics with the production entitled The Calamity Kids under the direc- tion of the class advisors. The play was very entertaining and helped to improve their financial situation. In May Mr. Cornelius, class advisors, the class, and I, Duffy, went to Harrisburg and Hershey. In Harrisburg we visited the Capitol and museum. The Hershey Chocolate Plant, Boys' Industrial School, and es- pecially the amusement park at Hershey added interest to our trip. Some of the pupils were having such a grand time at the park that they almost missed the bus. I nearly died laughing at them hurrying and pushing to get to the bus just as it was ready to leave. Because some of the pupils were having a good time, I thought we all should have fung consequently 1 persuaded them to shoot their water pistols at each other. As some were becoming provoked with the other's actions, the bus driver kindly asked them to put their pistols away. A wonderful time was had by all, and everyone wished that we could take a field trip next year. The approach- ing final examinations soon dulled the memories of their exciting trip, and three months of summer vacation was gladly welcomed by the frisky freshies. On September 4, 1948, the old school bell rang out, calling my group back to school. They were now the sophisticated sophomores, who had the privilege of teasing the new Freshman Class, remembering that only a year before they had undergone many trying ordeals. As time went by, class oflicers were elected. They were: President, John Shulickg Vice-President, Paul Kaspickg Secretary, Mary Marko: Treasurer, Joan Wilson. Miss McAVoy and once again Miss Witchey had charge of the group because it was so large. Because of their financial status they held a dance on October lst after the DuBois-Osceola football game. As the dance proved to be suc- cessful, another dance was scheduled for October 29th. The class treasury was augmented by the proceeds from the class play, Polishing Papa. Before they realized it, the summer holidays were once more ap- proaching. To climax the social season of the year, a party was held at the American Legion Home. Dancing, games, and eating provided fun and frolic for the group. September 5, 1949, directed them on their way. Because of Miss Williams' illness, Mr. Ryan undertook the duty of advisor of the Junior
