A sign of spring came to us as juniors when all the girls appeared in pigtails with bright ribbons attached. Ann Lefelhoc, beautifully arrayed in a white gown, with Nina Stinch-comb and Lois Green as attendants, was crowned Queen of the Firemen’s Ball for 1945. The junior and senior years at the Christmas Luncheon when all accidentally received two dishes of cake and ice cream? How did Jr. do it with his mother facing him at the next table? You’re on stage!” a familiar cry of Mrs. Few, our speech class teacher, when all the students were everywhere but on stage? Who could forget the big night? Chocolate cake, and sighs of relief followed. Erma loved jumping hurdles in gym class, or should I say knocking them down? Coach’s favorite sandwiches are paper with mayonnaise and lettuce? Varsity club boys know he has a tough stomach. The spaghetti feast party that the speech class never had? The demonstration on how to cook and Emma Lou’s famous statement— If they don’t fit in little pans put them in big pans and if they don’t fit in big pans put them in little ones”? That day in 1943 when the upper hall was filled with the music of Lay That Pistol Down Babe” and other renditions of the American history class while teacher was absent from the room? Fifteen minutes in detention hall just for chewing a half stick of Juicy Fruit?

The first day of the freshmen year? What we didn’t do? Surprise! Surprise!” we shouted to our sophomore home room teacher, Mr. Skriletz, at a pot-luck supper party we had for him. The can-can” dancers of 1941! Long dresses, big hats, high heeled shoes and hairy legs with the dainty 1-2 step, attracted people to our freshman show at the Carnival. There was a strong lady with her muscles of pillows and the fortune teller with her crystal ball. Who could ever forget a ride down Main St. in mid-winter in AverilPs old Ford? Did we forget something—our stomachs, perhaps? Who ever ate all of Mr. Skriletz’s sandwiches which mysteriously turned out to be bricks? What senior physics student could forget experimenting with ice cubes? (Mr. Stirm won’t forget either.) Hallowe’en 1943! A lot of letters were stamped at this Hallowe’en party. Wet seats, cold feet, snow faces, and red ears! Sounds like one of those bob-sled rides. Why would Nina rather walk than ride? The football banquet 1944. Ray and Ezra got gold footballs for their good work during football season. Why don’t you wear them, boys? Mistletoe and all it suggests! This appeared over the doorway periodically every December. As seniors, the boys tried to catch our Miss West. Did they succeed—Well?
