THE FRESHMEN 'W7HEN the class of ’43 entered high school last fall, it proved to he no more gullible than other freshman classes of the past. The students were ambitious and courteous, but not afraid to match wits with any of the upper classmen. For their initial year in high school, Rodney Satter was elected president; Dick Bunders, vice-president; and Virginia Cooper, secretary-treasurer. The class chose Mr. Smith as its advisor. In the beginning of the year the class was divided into two home rooms. The officers of Home Room 1 were: president, Dorothy Heisz; vice-president, Robert Hagensick; secretary-treasurer, Charles Elvert. Home Room 11 officers were: president, Donald McCloskey; vice-president, Doris Weightier; secretary-treasurer, Bernice Wagner. The class president and the home room presidents represent the class on the Student Council. The freshmen made their social debut at the Freshman Mixer given by the sophomores. The trials of the initiation certainly proved the pluckiness of this freshman class. They sang songs, danced jigs, and played the piano, much to the amusement of everyone present. Many boys in the class participate in athletics. The most outstanding is Richard Bunders who played on the undefeated “B” squad in basketball. The freshman class was in evidence in nearly all the Forensic groups. In Extemporaneous Reading the class was represented by Catherine Lechnir. Woody Schmidt entered the Extemporaneous Speaking group. The only representative of the class in Non-Hum-orous Declamatory was Dorothy Heisz. Two members of the class joined the Humorous Declamatory. They were Gloria Robertson and Dorothy Wolford. All of these students competed in the local Forensic Contest. If the freshman class keeps up its good work, much may be expected from it in the next three years of high school.

EIGHTH GRADE HEN the eighth grade, a class of thirty-seven, returned to school last fall, one of the first tilings they did was elect class officers. The following were chosen: Erby Satter, president; Veryl Laird, vice-president; and Betty La Rocque, secretary-treasurer. The president was made an honorary member of the student council. Their adviser was Miss Nona Deary. Members of the class took part in the Grade Operetta, “The Legend of the Snowman Delores Robinson played the part of Mary Carroll, one of the leading characters. A number of eighth grade hoys were members of the Junior High Basketball team. Many boys also belonged to the Junior High Tumbling Club. The main activity, however, was the Safety Patrol. I lie fiirls acted as an auxiliary unit. Miss N. Deary SEVENTH GRADE fJillE thrill of being in the seventh grade lies in the knowledge that at last “High School” may be tacked after your name, even if it is Junior High School. This active group of young people under the instruction of Miss Lila Murton have accomplished much in the way oi scholastics and extra-curricular activities this year. The grade school operetta found many of its members from the seventh grade. All of the gymnasium classes found seventh graders as leaders and some fine material for basketball is in evidence. Robert Shaw represents the grade on the Student Council. Jrun Miss L. Murton Gene Pkti rs (Deceased)
