SENIOR CLASS HISTORY This was quite the case in the fall of 1941 when t ent f r ' t w y- ou innocen s made their first appearance in thle Petroileum School, for you see they were not typical first graders. Miss Mary Blair was the teacher w.o gui edlus through the first grade. The members of our class were: Dorothy Gaskill, Earl Brickley, Elizabeth Pinkerton, .Eugene Allen, Rex Gentis, John Henry Binegar, Forrest Earl Ramseyer, Dale Holloway, Norman Bisel, Dorothy Mae Ley, Jimmy Mosser Elmer Bower, Deloris Kleinknight, Leon McCormack, Charles Ray Barnes, Frederick Settle, Martha Harris, Donna Kay Brumbaugh, John Stude- baker, Ra d J l ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ymon r. B air, Christine Egly, Shirley Schlagenhauf, Norma Jean Risser, Ninetta Barr. t It was a bright morning, early in September, 1912 when the school bus arrived at its destination.. Our eacher for the Second, Grade was Miss Steiner. We had lost two of our members, Norma Risser and Donna Brumbaugh. This left our membership at 22. J In August of 194153 we continued our excursion, with the exception of our new members, Paul Zimmer- man, Silberia Benavidez, Roger Humphrey Jack Monce Ned Murry, Michael Ulmer Christiam Wicke 1 1 , Y, Daphene Bunch, William Wagner. We had lost Deloris Kleinknight, Forrest Ramseyer, Jimmy Mosser, D0I'0thy Ley. Our teacher this- year was Mrs. Neuenschwander. Our Fourth -Grade teacher was Mrs. Egly. We had gained 3 new members. Connie Pursley, Sandra Pursley,-and Carl Stauffer. We had lost Raymond Blair, Norman Bisel, Dale Holloway. We enjoyed the Fifth Grade because for the first time in school we had two teachers in one grade, they were Mrs. Egly and Mr. Reynolds. This year we gained 8 new members. They were Carol Smith Lucile Kingen, Patricia Wall, William Harris, Max Goodspeed, Gerald Grinm, Norma Risser and Donna 'Brumbaugh had returned. Our Sixth year Mr. Reynolds was again our teacher. We had lost Gene Allen, Elmer Bower, Eliz- aheth Pinkerton, Sandra and Connie Pursley. We had 2 new members, Nancy Rosinski and Billy Wheeler. In the Seventh Grade we found a whole new life planned for us. We elected Mr. Carnes as our Sponsor. This year we lost Dorothy Gaskill, Billy Wheeler. Our new members were James Bunsold, Charley Gonzalez, Bethany' Millett. In the Eighth Grade we again elected Mr. Carnes. We lost Billy Harris, Lucile Kingen, Earl Brick- ley, and Richard Martin. We -gained John Bunsold. , The first day of school, August, 1949, will never be forgotten by us. It was on that day we entered the threshold of our high school career. Twenty enthusiastic pupils gathered for the first time as a Freshman class. We felt green and awkward and hardly knew how to act. Gradually this awkward feel- ing left us and we felt more free to become acquainted with our classmates. We followed our teachers to classes for fear of getting lost. This habit, however, was soon overcome as we were becoming in- quisitive as to the manner of our upper classrnen. We again elected Mr. Carnes as our Sponsor, and our ofticers as follows: President, Shirley Schlagenhaufg Vice-President, Paul Zimmerman, Secretary, John Studebakerg Treasurer, Charles Barnes. The Second year we continued our duties as Sophomores. Although our number had been dimin- ished by two, we kept up our spirits and took an active part in athletics and literary work. This year we elected Mr. Gyer as our Sponsor. Our officers were: President, Shirley Schlagenhaufg Vice-Presi- dent, Max Goodspeed, Secretary, Nancy Rosinskig Treasurer, Christine Egly. This year We presented our first Class Play, 'Beacon Hill Billy. By the Third year we .changed our name to Juniors. Eighteen members we were, proving the They conquer who endure!! This year proved to be a very successful one in every respect, during which we purchased our class rings and also sold programs, candy and pop. We elected Mrs. Mead as our Sponsor and officers were: Pres.. Shirley Schlagenhaufg Vice-Pres., Charles Barnes, Secretary, Nancy Rosinskig Treasurer, Byron Myers. Throughout the four-year course we have pursued our studies diligantly, and never has the black cloud of disagreement riven our class in twain. We have taken an active interest in all school activ- ities, and our parties, have been whaling successes. The Fourth year we elected Mrs. Mead and our officers were: Pres., Shirley Schlagenhaufg Vice- Pres., Rex Gentisg Secretary, Nancy Rosinski, Treasurer, Christine Egly. We are now on the last lap of our High School career, and after all is said and done we feel that the time has been well and profitably spent, 1
