CLASS HISTORY Pirate's Log Here it is, the spring of 1952, when we as Seniors of Perry High, the largest graduating class in its history, are almost through our formal education. Doesn’t it seem strange that only six years ago we were a large group of 62 scared seventh graders. The study hall of 22 was our home room and Mrs. Corwin our sponsor. Jo Carter was our class president and Helen Kurtz our vice-president. Ruth Uhrman, Edward Wolf, George Schlauch and Alex Barbato entered that year and added to the class. We presented an Amateur Show at the P.T.A. Carnival and made a good profit to he added to our treasury for our Prom. Jean and Jack Hawkins left us that year to journey to Keokuk, Iowa, and we all were sorry to see them go. We ended the year by having a picnic at Perry Park which was a huge success if judged by baseball scores and stomachaches. Due to the crowded conditions of the school, the study hall was divided into three rooms and the library became the study hall which was also our home room with Miss Few as our sponsor. That year Bob Stephens was added to the flock. Helen Kurtz was promoted from the vice-presidency of the year before and served as our president with Edmund Kulinski as her aid. Following the footsteps of our “elders”, we sponsored a skating party, but being a more “modern” class, we held it in the newly opened Roller Drome in Painesville. Not content with just a fair amount in the treasury, we also presented the Log Cabin Boys which the public seemed to like. Due to the damp weather outdoors, we held our picnic that year in our room. What a racket!! And do you remember, the ninth grade when we as Freshmen could at least look down on a few classes? We all felt more grown up that year and felt that now we were getting somewhere. We hung our hats in room 22, with Mr. Harrington, the new Industrial Arts Instructor as our sponsor. Did you notice that the poor man’s never had a homeroom since? Following the tradi- tion, Edmund moved up a notch and became our President. Nancy Williams served under him as vice-president, and Ruth I’hrman was secretary, and Robvn Yon Lehmden treasurer. Do you remember those noisy classroom meetings? How could you forget! Leaving our class that year were Shirley Hendrickson, June Heath, Joanne Cross, Florence Bittig, and Donna Freidel. Sally Mantle, that Southern Belle, entered our class. That year the boys played football and basketball while the girls played hockey, basketball and walked away with the baseball trophy. We sponsored the Alumni Christmas dance and we were the first class to make money at this affair. Of course, to accomplish this we had to sell the refresh-mentts, instead of giving them away, true to tradition. Remember when the girls served at the Football Banquet? Aren’t you glad nobody poured hot coffee down the speaker’s neck? That year Ed Kulinski received his football letter. He was one of the first players ever to earn his Varsity letter in his freshman year. We again went to Perry Park for our picnic and true to tradition it rained! Although only a few members of the class attended, enough ice cream was consumed for all. The next year we traveled to the other end of the hall and camped out in room 27. Mr. Inscho, our class sponsor, started the year as a bachelor, but along about the end of October he took a vacation. We wonder why. That year the tradition was broken as a newcomer in the line of succession moved into the presidency. Leonard Trubiskv was president, Bill Hutchins, vice-president, Lester Elliot, treasurer, and Jim Mackey, secretary. Lida Martin entered that year along with Paul Janos and Wilson Judd. Mitchell Robertson, Geraldine Rossv and George Nemeth left. Some of the class helped out on the newly revised “Peri-scope”, tried out for plays and the girls won the hockey trophy and also the baseball trophy. We ended the year with a hang, by traveling all the way to Nelson Ledges for our class pic- fourteen
