CLASS HISTORY On that memorable day in September, 1955, the day we entered Saxton Liberty High School, our elementary school days became a memory. Our group of 106 soon was introduced to the problems of finding a suitable routine. Before long we became veterans of the first few days of confusion that all freshmen must experience. In due time our class met under the direction of our class advisers. Miss Winnick and Mr. Dodsop, to elect officers. They were: President, William Axon; Vice-President, Wayne Schenck; Secretary-Treasurer, Donna Baker; Historian, Beth Fluke. Our social event for the year was a skating party held at Martinsburg. On September 4,1956, the sturdiest of us were on hand as eager sophomores, with a backward look of accomplishment at our freshman year. Our group now numbered seventy-seven students, anxious for the education which would promote us to a higher level. When the class held its first meeting on September 20, the following class officers were chosen: President, Larry McCahan; Vice-President, Wayne Schenck; Secretary-Treasurer, Donna Baker; Historian, Elouise Thomas. The class sponsored the Saint Valentine's Day party under the direction of the class advisers, Mr. and Mrs. Witowski. Our junior year proved to be a very eventful one for us. We received our class rings, which we shall always treasure. That year our business activities began with selling refreshments at home games. We were responsible for two social events, a gala Halloween party and the Junior-Senior Prom, held on May 9, 1958, with “Oriental Gardens” as the theme. We shall al- ways cherish fond memories of these occasions. Our class officers this year were: President, Larry McCahan; Vice-President, Wayne Schenck; Secretary-Treasurer, Donna Baker; Historian, Elouise Thomas. Our advisers re- mained the same. When September 1958 came, we began to realize that our school days were few. We immediatley began making plans for our yearbook. At our first meeting we elected class officers: President, Larry McCahan; Vice-President, Gary McGraw;Secretary-Treasurer, Donna Baker; Historian, Elouise Thomas. Mr. and Mrs. Witowski continued to be our helpmates. In the spring we took the annual educational trip to Washington D. C., an experience we shall never forget. On May 17, Baccalaureate Service was held and on May 19, Commencement. Although we shall greatly miss our experiences at Saxton Liberty, we can look to a brighter future because of them.
