THE FRESHMAN YEAR While still eighth graders, we thought we would be composed when we entered our first year of high school, but we, too, like other classes, were just as enthusiastic and bewildered as they. With the aid of our class sponsors, Miss Kunkel and Mr. Stauffer, we soon became adjusted to this new order. The year ended with a class picnic at the Spring- Held swimming pool. SOPHOMORE YEAR With Richard Bosacco, President, Charles Dorn- ing, Vice President, Mary jane Rule, Secretary, and Ruth Warrington, Treasurer, as our leaders, we began our Sophomore year. Our class entered into all the activities of the school wholeheartedly. A very successful Sophomore Hop was held in January, and a glowing future was predicted for the class of 1942. JUNIOR YEAR Our junior year began with an unusually large group of boys and girls. A large number of students from Folcroftland Colwyn joined our school, and thereby increased the enrollment of our class. The class officers for this year were Richard Bo- sacco, President, james Lichty, Vice President, Con- stance Kelley, Secretary, and Ralph Rupert, Treas- urer. During American Education Week an assembly program was presented by the juniors, and then repeated for the Parent-Teacher Association. In De- cember a number of the class purchased class rings. LUG Our play, Prize Family, was presented during April. It proved most successful. The class then put all its efforts into our junior Prom, which was held on the evening of january 6, 1941. Our efforts were rewarded by a large attendance. With the end of the year in sight we were eagerly looking forward to our Senior year with its many activities. SEN I OR YEAR Our last year in school began with a bang Everyone was enthusiastic about selling candy and hot dogs at the football and basketball games. Sell- ing Christmas cards and Easter eggs helped us in preparing for the Washington trip. Our ofhcers for the year were james Lichty, Pres- identg Robert Mofiitt, Vice President g Ruth War- rington, Secretary, and Stanley Speaker, Treasurer. Our play, It Won't Be Long Now, was pre- sented on February 28, and was a roaring success. After overcoming many obstacles caused by the present crisis, we visited the nation's Capital for three days. This is a traditional trip to which all classes look forward. Reluctantly we returned home from ours laden with souvenirs. Our Senior Fi- nale, the last dance our class gave, came amid prep- aration for commencement, but it was well attended despite this fact. In place of class night we held a banquet at which knockers were presented to members of the class. Now the class of 1942 goes forth, fully realizing how much our country needs our services to rnain- tain our democratic way of life. 16
