1. W.,-.4 .f 2... Age: 6-11 To all Seniors, 1936 is a year we will always remember, for that was the begin- ning- Skipping rope, playing marbles, and dodge ball, kept is busy at recess. Each year we received a few more books than the year before, and we found we had to study a little harder. Spelling bees and writing contests are still happy remem- brances. We can never forget the bell that someone had to hit with a hammer so we knew when classes were to changefand remember those exciting fire drills! Age: 12-13 A group of curious youngsters entered junior high school in l942. Anxiously we looked forward to meeting new teachers and taking new subjects. By selling candy, seeds, and war stamps we started to build a class treasury. We attended our first dance that Freshman year and even fi- nanced a banquet. Age: 14-17 High School, what a big word! And in 1946 we were there! The first activity of the year was the Sophomore Skating Party followed by the Autumn Frolic, a social success. Both proved beneficial to our treasury. Our class took a leading part in the athletic teams, band, chorus, cheerlead- ing, and clubs. Forty-five of us became juniors in a year that brings back fond memories. An outstanding event of the year was the Hal- , y if Kybbir lowe'en Party with its traditional decora- tions, unique costumes, and original imper- sonations. Our class rings which we anticipated with eagerness arrived before the Christ- mas Holidays. A magazine campaign con- ducted by the class proved to be a benefit. On April 25, l947 the juniors presented, For Pete's Sake which proved a big suc- cess under the fine direction of Miss Lillian Pogachnick. We entertained the seniors at the Pines on May 15- The banquet was the biggest social event of the year and the group who attended the affair was the lar- gest ever entertained by a junior class. September, l947 brought forty-three seniors to Room l of R. H. S. We eagerly looked forward to our last year of school and its activities. Our biggest success was our senior class play, The Hoosier Schoolmaster, presented on November 21 under the able direction of Mr. lames I. Cullianane. lt was the most original play ever presented in our school because of the large cast consisting of twenty-eight seniors. The Christmas Party with the large tree, beautiful lights and decorations will long be remembered. We gathered around and sang our favorite Christmas carols before parting on this last night of the old year together. The selection of announcements and name cards and the measuring of caps and gowns reminded us that graduation was only a few months away. At Commence- ment on May 25, l948, we sang our Alma Mater as undergraduates for the last time. The days we spent at work and at play here at R. H- S. are some of the happiest days of our lives and always will bring back pleasant memories. ft rw ag, . Q .tl t T N px I Civvf GJ ij ,lb Fourteen
