How We: got CTh'ui Wag History repeats itself so the historians tell us. This may be true, but I believe that no graduating class in the history of Plainville High School has ever had a more eventful and varied career than the class of 48. This industrious class entered dear ole' P. H. S. in 1942. Not a more capable, hard working. cooperative bunch has ever been seen in these halls. Dotty Blakeney started off our glorious reputation in the seventh grade when she was elected president. Our cap- able and most willing advisors for that year were Miss Millisor and Doc Kusel. As eighth graders we rose higher and were not referred to as Plainville's little devils quite as much as the year before. Our president for that year was Terry Baker and our advisers were Mrs. Kreider and Mrs. Barnes. The eighth grade tests came and we were to test our knowledge, it we had any. We finally came to our graduation in Tune. It was quite a big affair. The stage was decor- ated with ferns and flowers and our class prophecy helped spur our ambitions, al- though I doubt if many of the predictions will come true. At last, we were Freshmen; a wiser and much quieter class. We had a little more to worry about that year, what with the Fresh- man Frolic. our big, well-attended dance, sports which occupied most all of the boys' and girls' time, and the carnival concession. Our officers for that year were Bob Larson, president; Iim Anthony, vice president: lerry Baker, treasurer; and Joan Reid, secretary Mrs. Schaeffer and Miss Fields were our advisers. Another step toward our goal, graduation, was the sophomore year. Most of our boys participated in sports and the girls were not to be left behind. They were active in G. A. A., Y-Teens, and various other Clubs. Our annual Sophomore Sweater Swing was a big success. Mr. Miller and Mr. Saiter were our advisers 43 for the year and Iim Anthony, Bob Larson, Yate Deer and Barbara Dieckbrader were our officers. As upper classmen we really made history. Our Junior Class play, Skidding, was tops, and our Junior Prom too! 1a! lall. What a time; no circus could have been any more fun. Our capable chairman were loan Reid and Bar- bara Dieckbrader. Our president for that year was Bob Radle; vice president, Nelson Beck- ler; treasurer, Gordon DeWeese: and secre- tary, Joan Reid. And so we reached the final stretch with our last year before us. We felt pretty won- dertul being Seniors and being able to oc- cupy that most sacred room 310. Our never- tirinq advisors were, ever-taithful Mr. Martin with the same ole' jokes and Miss Patricia Cloos, a newcomer fresh from Bowling Green University, but full of new and bright ideas. Oh, what fun we had, but we also worked hard. Our officers were Jerry Roberts, presi- dent: Mike Coleman, vice president; Richard McLeish, treasurer; and Sally Constable, sec- retary. We started off our year with a paper drive which was very successiul. Christmas card sales. candy sales. cokes and hot dogs were also a big help in payment of this glor- ious annual. Our formal, Santa Claus Ball, which was the first of its kind to be held out- side of the school, was well attended and great fun. Christmas vacation was most wel- come, especially to Seniors, who had been working so hard. Then the final half of our last year. With exams out of the way we looked toward the coming of the Carnival which turned out to be more stupendous than ever before with Suzanne Vosmer as chairman. The Senior Play was another great milestone in our pathway to success Now you are reading our final contribution to dear P. H. S. With much regret and sadness but with even more apprehension and eagerness we leave to go on to a bigger and better life ahead
