'dfaaewf In the year 1946 a scared but determined group of freshmen trooped into room 24, where Mr. Cunningham was seated behind his big desk. This group is better known as the nforty-n1ners', a group that had not set out to find gold, but knowledge! C?J Our officers that year were Bill Gleason, Mary Williams, and Lloyd LeBaron. We felt we had a hidden ability, and we did have--in sports. The fellows were doing a wonderful job on the P.H.S. squad. In the tournaments the girls beat the sophomore girlsg our boys beat the sophomore boys. We didn't win the trophy, but we hoped to the next year. That year we sponsored a skating party at the Madison Rink. We called it the 'Floor Dustersu, and as freshmen trying to stand up on wheels we couldn't have picked a better name. As our first year in High School came to a close, Mr. Cunningham found himself with a few more gray hairs and with doubts as to whether we had learned anything or not. Nevertheless, we were all promoted to the tenth where the title 'sophies' was tagged on us. We were sponsored that year by an Army flier, Mr. McKenna, who faithfully guided us through our first class meeting. The officers in our sophomore year were Berdina Kangas, Lloyd LeBaron, Lorraine Robinson, and Mary Williams. We welcomed three new members to our clans that year. They were Owen Cottrell, better known as 'Gotty', a fellow full of lifeg Jeanette Pocza from Fairport, who proved to bs a very good worker, and Bill Ashoraft, a fellow who brought 'us all' a touch of the South. In October our class began to make big plans for a 'Dogpatch Dance', in recognition of Sadie Hawkins' Day. After much campaigning Berdina Kangas and Bob Hilborn were elected to be Daisy Mae and Little Abner for the evening. Some girls caught their man that night! What say Jeanette?? with the big idea of turning the coy's locker room into a fun house iwhich materialized! we helped make the P.T.A. Carnival a success. Also, in our sophomore year, we tried our hand at dramatics. We presented a one act play, nPeace It's wonderful', directed by Mr. McKenna. Our boys were now playing on the varsity team and the girls won the basketball trophy--their pride and joy. We finished that year by having a class picnic at Perry Park and everyone had loads of fun. In l948 our address was: Junior Class, Room 27, and were we proud of it! Only one more year to go. we were very proud also to have Mr. McKenna for our class sponsor again. Our boys were still doing well in sports, but at the tournaments the seniors walked off with the trophy. he hoped that they would get it the next year. The girls won the basket- ball trophy again! Much to our sorrow we lost a few membersof our class that year. There was our all-star basketball player, Charlotte Bunnell, who moved to Madison, Mary Lou Eckert who thought Arizona might suit her better, Mary Ilardi, who switched her school life to a married one, and Don Vanderveer who decided to work on a farm. We had one new member, Don Schmidt from Madison. During our junior year the girls got their chance when our class sponsored a Leap Year Dance entitles, NFlannigan's Shenannigan'. The class officers that year were Lloyd LeBaron, John Pierce, Mary Williams, and Aletha Taft. After lugging cases of pop, stumbling over potato chip boxes, and cooking hot dogs for the football and basketball games, we finally accum- ulated sufficient funds to have an elaborate Prom at the Manikiki Country Club. We really worked hard but it was worth it. We had now reached our final goal--seniors. As last year, we lost a few more members from our class. They were Bob Brown, Berdina Kangas, Randall Smith, Bill Ashcraft, and Bill Gleason. We welcomed on new member, LeRoy Cole. This year our officers were Mary Williams, Jeanette Pooza, Lloyd LeBaron, and John Pierce. Student Council representatives were Mary Williams, Jeanette Pocza, Sue Coffman, and Lloyd LeBaron. Red and white reigned as our class colors with the American Beauty Rose as continued on next page 12
