CLASS HISTURY In September, 1950, a green group of twenty-nine young boys and girls boarded the G.C.H.S., a long dis- tance train, with Miss Brinsmaid and Mr. Shadrlin as engineer and fireman. The leader and president of our class was Darrell Weichenthal. Kay Henry was vice-president, jean Van Wagner was secretary, and Shirley Sticlrler was treasurer. Lyman Wood and Beverly Bickel represented us in the student government aboard old G.C.H.S. Our group set out into the sports field in full swing by placing seven on the J. V. and Varsity baseball teams and three on the J. V. basketball team. About fifty per cent of our class also participated in various musical activities. ' At the annual prom, Karl Perry and Shirley Stickler were elected as Lord and Lady ofthe royal family. A bake sale was our last class activity, as June came around the corner. lt was now the end of june and our train had to stop to refuel and be repaired. We all reioiced when the news came through from the big bosses that we were now promoted to Sophomores and would soon take over the Sophomore car. ln September, 1951, we again boarded the train, but in a new and better car. Three of our original group missed the train and never reioined us. Miss Kreutter and Mr. Favitta took over the iob as engineer and fireman to guide us on our way. Kay Henry took over the post as leader of our class, with Bob Ellis as vice-president, Lyman Wood as secretary, and Charles McWilliams as treasurer. Karl Perry and Beverly Bickel represented our group in the student government. T Stepping up in sports, we placed three on the Varsity basketball team, two on the I. V. team, and one girl on the 1. V. cheerleading squad. We also placed five members on the Varsity baseball team. Once again about fifty per cent of our class participated in musical activities. One of our biggest events was our round and square dance. At the annual ball Bob Ellis and Connie Clark were elected to the royal family as Duke and Duchess. Again june rolled around, almost too soon, and we had to stop again for refueling and repairs. We were all happy when we received the news that we were promoted to the junior car and were full fledged juniors now. ln June, 1952, we returned with one less in our class, leaving only twenty-five. Mrs. Skellett and Mr. Smingler took over the iobs as engineer and fireman to guide us further on the road to success. The leadership of our class was turned over to jean VanWagner, with Beverly Bickel as vice-president, Lyman Wood as secretary, jim Norsen as treasurer, and Kay Henry as class historian. ln student government we made another advance, electing Darrell Weichenthal to the office of vice-president, with Kay Henry, jean Van Wagner, and Karl Perry representing our class, giving us a total membership of four. ln sports we kept pace by placing three on both the J. V. and the Varsity basketball teams, five on the Varsity baseball team, and two girls on the Varsity cheerleading squad. Once again our class participation in musical activities was about fifty per cent. We had many activities this year, including two big dances. One was a round and square dance and the other was the biggest event of the year, our junior Prom, Rhapsody in Blue. Babe Polmantecr and jean VanWagner received the honor of being Prince and Princess of the royal family. This year we also had two bake sales-the first in November and the second at the end of the year in june. We made our third stop for refueling and repairs. We were promoted to Seniors and prospective leaders of the future. ln September, 1953, twenty-five of us boarded the train with the next stop to be our destination. This time we had the largest and most glorious car of the group. Mrs. Skellett and Mr. Smingler remained with us as engineer and fireman. Lorraine Youngs took over the leadership of our group, with Karl Perry as vice-president, Martha Gifford as secretary, jim Norsen as tressmer, and jean Van Wagner as historian. Darrell Weichenthal was elected president of the student council and Lorraine Youngs, lean VanWagner, and Lyman Wood represented our class, giving us a total membership of four. There were many great events during this year. One was the Senior Play, Mr. Barry's Etchings , which was a big success and proved that we have some actors and actresses in our group. Two dances were held, the first in October, the second was our Senior Ball, Dreamer's Holiday . Bruce Depew and janet Hamm, a Senior at Penn Yan High School, were chosen King and Queen. Placing six on the Varsity basketball team, two on the Varsity cheerleading squad, and about fifty per cent of ora' class in the band and chorus, we expect to have a good year in both the sport and musical fields. With many surprises in store, we will reach our destination on june 28, l954, as educated young men and women of the future. 19
