Freshman Class History 'A' 'A' 'ir if if September fourth, nineteen hundred forty-five, marked the beginning of high school life and a higher step in education for thirty-seven fresh- men. We are grateful to Miss Ainsworth, our class adviser, for helping us through those first few days. On October third, our first class meeting was held, during which we elected the following class officers: president, Mary Wise, vice-president, Joanne Hicksg secretary, James Smith, and treasurer, Howard Bushnell. Our first entertainment was a hayride on October nineteenth. We also had a party in the gym on March twenty-ninth. We were pleased to have a large number of students participating in extra-curricular activities. Football attracted seven of our boys. We were also represented in basketball by eight boys. Several members took part in Mixed Chorus, Glee Club, T Club, and G.A.A. We were sorry to lose one of our classmates, Etna Monroe, the sec- ond semester, but we were glad to welcome to our class two new pupils, Ruth Goacher of Patterson, and Carl Evans of Murrayville.
