'Q lass History use ELLLE As graduation time draws near we find ourselves turning back the pages of our albums. In looking back we find that on September 5, 1938 there were 23 members in the Freshman class. They were: La Vonne Adams, Ruth Marie Brown, Clyde Burton, Christian Burkhardt, Beulah -Clarke, Bill Colburn, Carl Davison, Le Roy Doncheskey Virginia Gee, John Golden, Virginia Hodge, Paul Hunt, Glenola Kunnemann, Vivian- Newlon, Milton Suck, Robert Taylor, Rex Vansickle, Dorothy Weber, Lorene Whited, Marion Winchell, Onilee Winchell, and Louis Zuehlke. Of these we find that Beulah Clarke and Robert Taylor were the only ones remaining together all of the twelve years. Others that joined in the grades were: John Golden, Le Roy Doncheske, Paul Hunt, Lorene Whited, Virginia Hodge, Clyde' Burton, Carl Davison, and Glenola Kunneman. Our class officers for that year were as follows: Robert Taylor, President: Paul Hunt, Vice-Pesidentg John Golden, Secretary-Treasurer, Martin E, Carlson, Sponsor. We were initiated on September 23. During the year we had two roller skating parties, a theater party and a wiener roast at the river. On September 4, 1939 we entered school as Sophomores which we discovered was a little better than beinu: a Freshman. The following were not with us this year: La Vonne Adams, Bill Colborn, Ruth Marie Brown, and Rex Vahsickle. We elected the following officers: Milton, President: Onilee, Vice-President: Virginia Gee, Secretary-Treasurer: Coach , Sponsor A During the year we had a picnic at the home of Margaret Burkhardt, a roller skating party, a Valentine party at the home of Vivian Newlon and a theater party. We gave a one-act play Hold Everything , On September 5, 1940 we entered school as Juniors. The officers were as fol- lows: Paul Hunt, President: Le Roy Doncheske, Vice-President: Onilee Winchell Secretary-Treasurer: Coach , Sponsor. During the year we had two parties, one a theater party and the other a wiener roast at the river. One of the big events of the year was the Junior play Bolts and Nuts . Another big event was the Junior-Senior Banquet. Patriotic decorations suitable to the theme Defense made a very attractive setting. On March 25 we went to Grand Island, for our Skip Day, and visited various places of interest. On September 6, 1941 the dignified Seniors found their places. We lost the fol- lowing from our class: Paul Hunt and Glenola Kunnemann. The class officers were: 'Clyde Burton, Presidentg Dorothy Weber, Vice-Presi- dent: Onilee Winchell, Secretary-Treasurer, Coach , Sponsor. The class colors chos- en were Light Blue and Silver, our flower, white carnation, and our motto: Climb, though the rocks be rugged. During the year we had a theater party, a gum party and a roller skating party. On November 15 we visited the photographer in Hastings. Many of us were sur- prised at the results. April 21 found a majority of the class in Hastings for Career Day at the college. We gave the Senior play Don't Go West, Go Western , April 24 and 25. On April 27 we lost our dignity and went to Lincoln for Sneak Day. The Junior-Senior Banquet was held May 6, at the Methodist church. The Senior breakfast was held May 12 at the H, H. Golden home at 7:45 a. m. Mrs. Alvah Gee and Mrs. Golden were hostesses. Guests included the seniors, the faculty, Mrs. E. B. Marshall and Miss Emma zCarlson. Baccalaureate Services were held at the Methodist Church May 10. The Com mencement program was May 13 with Dr. David Grant, of Hastings, speaker. As we leave Palmer High School we shall take with us the memories of the good times as well as the Ibad. We hope our accomplishments will be worthy of the time and work that our parents and teachers have spent to make this event possible. By Margaret Burkhardt Dorothy Weber Virginia Hodge John Golden
