CLASS HISTORY of the Class of 1957 THE YEAR ...... 1945 THE DATE . ..... September 3 4 THE PLACE ...... School Starts THE EVENT ...... Caledonia School Yes, twenty future men and women stand on the threshold of a new life. They're very young but can still rea- lize that something new is stretching ahead of them and that there is a long road they must travel. lt's a long road on which they will grow in knowledge and experience. Of the twenty to start, five remain together. Some of the others have left and returnedg others have gone on other ways. I salute, as the members of the Twelve-Year Club, Leona Belt, Inez Gist, and Rebecca Scheifler. Others stood with them whom you should rememberg Melvin Bryant, Bill Hurtt, Janet Benge, Marjorie Irey, Maynard Mulvaine, Joyce Smith, Pat Landes, and Bud Bending, these and seven others. The ones mentioned here being back memories, but the nicest memory of all is that of our first teacher, Miss Porter. To her we owe much, for it was she who started us on that road to the future. Well, we have come a long way. Down through the years, many things have happened tn us. We have leamed through books and experiences to do the things that we must know how to do when we reach the outside world of con- fusion and complexity. From simplest reading and writing we have advanced to higher science and literature un- til, we hope, we are ready for what the world may bring. What happened to those who started out? When did we receive those we now have? Let me enumerate. Bud Bending left us in the early stages and we gained Darlene Cochran and Bob Detwiler. In the fourth grade, Kirk- patrick School closed and gave us three more of our graduates, Virgil Hildreth, Janet Perry, and Marilyn Under- wood. In the fifth Doris Walkerjoined us. In the sixth, Marilyn Sullivan joined our ranks and Pat Landes left us. In the seventh, Janet Benge returned. In the meantime, we gained Don Crissinger, Ivan Bayles, Raymond Morrow, Don Miracle, but they were lost to us before we reached high school. Yes, many who have been with us through the early years drop away. In the eighth, we lost the boys previously mentioned and Melvin Bryant. In the ninth, Bill Hurttg the tenth, Joyce Smithg the eleventh, Marjorie Irey and another girl who came to us in the seventh and whom we always will remember. The most outstanding person in the history of our class was Lois Anne Levien. She was as much a part of our education as the books we studied. In learning how to understand her problems, we came to understand the world just that much better. May the Lord bless her wherever she goes and whatever she does. Then in our junior year we gained the last of our eminent class, Barbara Hildreth and Harold Lyon. Pat Landes also returne'd. Then in our senior year, Katie McKinsn'y who had been with us in our freshman year, returned. Now with these we stand on another threshold and are ready to step out into the world. Will our training be enough to guide us during the trials to come? We can only wait and see. Janet Benge 11
