SENIGR HISTORY In the fall of 1937, at the Shellburn Public School, a group of youngsters embarked on their scholastic voyage. For the first three years, they had smooth sailing, but as they mounted, the work became harder. The first seven years were uneventful, except the class became the favorite of most of the teachers. The most important event was the graduation from there to high school. Then came the September of 1944, and they were Freshmen in high school. This was a grand experience. Of the group that entered school in 1937, only fifteen remained. The Freshmen and Sophomore years were only routine with nothing so very important happening. The class became well known for its sportmanship and ability to lead in activities. The Junior year was a full and busy one. Both the Juniors and Seniors enjoyed the Junior-Senior Banquet and the Juniors enjoyed a trip on Junior Day. One member of our class during this year met death in an automobile accident. ln September of 1948, a group of eighty-six entered as seniors. Of this group, only nine entered together in 1937. Some highlights of the year were: Senior Day, the Senior Play, 'Bolts and Nuts . The class is very grateful to the parents, teachers, and friends who helped, guided, and inspired us during our early years of training. Because of their training, we expect to he better citizens of tomorrow.
