CLASS HISTORY Twelve years ago, thirty-nine frightened little brats entered the first grade of the Peabody public school system. Our teacher was Martha Fost. Of the thirty nine only eight students finished their schooling in Peabody. These eight are: Marjorie Buell, Clarence Buller, JoAnn Cracrnft, Arlene Goentzel, Eetty Lou Kellum, Phyllis Kellum, Edward Nicklaus, and Clair Schelske. Seems like we never learned to ask for permission to speak; as a result several of us had our mouths taped shut. After trying to learn the main fundamentals we were passed on to the second grade where we were greeted by Miss Pauline Roby. This year we made a grocery store to try and learn about the grocery business. We then entered the third grade under the guidainship of Virginia Keating. Some of the boys didn t seem to want to mind so as their nunishment they spent several minutes under the teachers desk. This year we tried to learn to write with ink but the result v as more ink on the floor than on the oaper. In the fourth grade Lucille Sandquist greeted us as our teacher. Dick Astla joined our class this year. We can all remember how Dick wore knee pants and thrilled all the girls 1 After another trying year Miss Sandquist gave ud and sent us on to the fifth grade. Miss Frances Graves welcomed us into her fifth grade with a smile but by the end of the year that smile was worn off. Stewart Kirkpatrick joined our class this year. Miss Graves tried to get us ready for junior high but she didn t have too good luck so she passed us on to venture into junior high. In Junior high we learned we had to change rooms for each class. Our sponsor was Miss Hearon; we will never forget the masquerade Halloween party out at the old haunted house. In the sixth grade P . ul Gaede joined our class. After struggling through our first year of junior high we were passed on Id enter the seventh grade. We had been v arned how hard the seventh grade really was; we soon learned. Bill Lackey and Duane Fisher joined our onward marching class • At last we reached the long awaited--eighth grade• Nadine 3rewer joined our class and we settled down to act as dignified eighth graders??? Climaxing a hard year of studying we held our last eighth grade chapel and that evening we enjoyed our last party as eighth graders. We received our grade cards with the glorious news that we could at last enter high school--as green freshnenli At last we entered the red brick building at the north end of town. This year we were greeted by Re-ita Gaines, Evelyn Hess, Dick Janzen, Bob Manahan, Maxine Ulsh, and Jeanne Vantuyl. Our sponsors this year were Miss Ansdell, and Miss Hawthorne. They seemed to think Clarence was an animal and treated him like a puppy. Then we finally reached the sophomore year. Our new student this year was Leonard Goering. Our sponsors were Miss Hinshaw and Mr. Brown. Finally we had attained tiB position if being upoer classmen; we were Juniors at last. This year we had our Junior and senior banquet, and our junior nlay en- titled nHere Come The Brides'1 Our sponsors were Mrs. Martens, Mr. McGill, and Mr. Higgins. Here we are seniors at last. Our new students this year were WDbur Leppke and LaVon Williams. Our sponsors were Mr. Talley and Miss Lamberson. We published our annual The Warrior . And thus ended our high school education at Peabody High School. THIS PAGE SPONSORED BY THE PEABODY STATE BANK
