SOPHOWORET Our junior year was a busy one. We were herded through it by our very compe- tent sponsor, Mr. Bereman, and our class president, Robert Lee. We sold concessions at the football games, basketball games, and the Halloween Festival. Several boys made the varsity basketball and football teams. They helped to win the County Basketball Championship and the Wabash Valley Football Trophy. Nine of our group became members of the National Honor Society. After days and nights of working and decorating for the Prom we, the Junior class, crowned Rozanne Cox as our '52 Prom Queen with Florence Thomas and Dorothy Dickerson as her atten- dents. We thought our prom was the best one yet. That year we elected our class officers in a new way. The, then new, Student Council directed the election. Our class was the first to serve in this new function of the school. Now we are practically at the end of our journey. Looking over our school years we find that twelve of our class of the original twenty-eight have gone to the Rock- ville schools all twelve years. These mem- bers are: Doris Cooper, Dick Cottrell, Hu- bert Hall, John Hudson, Robert Lee, Gerald Lenover, Barbara Martin, Tommy McMurtry 1, James Monroe, Marilyn Neet, Jerry Neid- linger, and Sharon Stutler. Many of us will go on to college but others will immediately enter into some business. It is sincerely hoped that all of us will become useful citizens in the world we are about to enter.

SENIOR CLASS HISTORY In September 1941, twenty-eight little boys and girls tremulously entered the new school building on West Elm brimming over with a thirst for knowledge but a little scared too. There we met our first teacher, Miss Charlotte Albert, who soon dispelled all our fears and gave us a good start to the road of knowledge. The next seven years passed very swift- ly and suddenly we found ourselves in the eighth zrade--which was in the high school-- practically grown up or so we thought. That vear was filled with many activities. Our parents were just beginning to comprehend the transportation problem. Following the foot-steps of the preceeding class, our basketball team won the county championship. The year, 1949, saw this same little group start out on another venture in learn- ing--High School. The Green Year passed swiftly and successfully despite the pessi- mistic predictions from upperclassmen. Mr. Anthis and Mr. Lawrence were our patient sponsors and Tommy McMurtry I was elected as our president. Several members of the class, both boys and girls, attended the State Latin, algebra, and musical contests. In our sophomore year, Mr. Williams was our sponsor and Doris Cooper was our class president. Several in the class made fine showings in the State Latin, geometry, and musical contests. Our B team made the fans sit up and take notice. FRES HMAN Compliments of: n: W arden Insurance John Alden
