SENIOR CLASS HISTORY JN SEPTEMBER of 1943 the Princeton school system got its first look at the class of 1957. At once we began to acquire a vast knowledge in the kindergartens of Logan, Lincoln, and Douglas school. The long awaited first grade became a reality only after a hard introduction to education. The years passed lazily, and soon we had reached sixth grade. We had the distinction of being the last sixth grade class in Junior High School. It was quite a change, but we made the skip anyway and were introduced to a bell sys- tem, a loss of recess period, and Mrs. Berensmier. Looking back now, it seems that this was where our group began to organize. The rivalries be- tween the three elementary schools were erased, and the biggest remaining disagreements were over girls, snowball fights, and teachers. It is interest- ing to observe that this was the fateful year in which romance made its entrance into a large num- ber of our lives. Remember ? Seventh grade—sometimes called the Castle era in honor of one of the faculty—passed much the same as the preceding year, only more so. Sud- denly we were sitting on top of the world as Eighth Graders. We became the first class to utilize the new addition to the school. Industrial arts and home economics became part of our cur- riculum, and Miss Harter returned to help Mr. Stamm make use of the new music room. We learned a lot, became pretty cocky, and finished the year with the annual magazine sale, trip to Chicago, Meet Your High School Day, and, finally, graduation. We advanced to High School—the last step in the formal education of many of our group. We were the average terrified freshmen—except that we were disturbed over our small number of about seventy. We survived the book-carrying routines and penny-pushing contests which were royally ended on Thuse Day. Perhaps the most exciting event of the year was the basketball team’s performance in the Sweet-Sixteen.” As freshmen we were properly impressed by the proceedings. Then there was our first Senior Farewell Assem- bly.” Our sophomore year rolled around, and with it a return trip to Champaign. However, the gen- erally increased activity of the class caused other events to share the limelight with the Sweet Six- teen —in which we finished fourth. The Sopho- more Banquet was the big event, but increased participation in band, chorus, and other activities made this year more full than its predecessor. Finally we were upperclassmen. The class made its biggest step forward in organization, and somehow we were able to present a class play, keep the Weekly Tiger in print, and inaugurate a special edition which was never given a name. It was in these activities and in three wild Amer- ican History clashes that we came to know Miss Luchsinger. We kept her fine help in mind to- ward the end of the year and made sure that she was to be class sponsor for our senior activities. I'he year ended with our first prom and a strong anticipation of what was to come in the succeed- ing year. We, along with Barb and our new principal, entered our thirteenth year of education by realiz- ing that already we were pressed for money. We had hall hops, candy sales, clean-up days, and we even resorted to selling stationery. But the money problem pressed on, and so did we The class play came and went. Christmas vacation passed, fol- lowed by concentrated studying for semester exams, after which we began to think about col- lege. The object of our financial worries was also taking up a considerable amount of time. The year began to draw to a close. We met deadlines on the annual and finished paying for it. We planned the prom and our first class reunion. And Bac- calaureate, Commencement, and Prom were soon history—and so were our High School days. Page Twenty-five
