They were Dale Lucas, Virginia Alt, Kathleen Kuhnel, Jlee and Jnel Miller, Lois Carter, Norma Jean Gable, Mary Lou Fyfe, and Lavonne Dinges, who in the earlier part of the year moved to Osceola.

As usual we were greeted by the mighty seniors who extended us a most dreadful but cordial welcome 2 After that we were ready to settle down to business. We first elected class officers as follows: president, Ronnie Schinzel; vice-president. Pal Lyon; secretary and treasurer,Emery Burgess; sponsor, Harold Haberman. Our subjects for the year were general mathematics under Coach Haber- man, general science and English 9 under Mrs. Ruby Young, and world geog- raphy under Miss Mamie Ryan. Outstanding events of the year were a wie- ner roast at Sokol s Lake and a party in the gymnasium. Graduating from the title of green freshies the beanies and puzzled looks were cast aside and we took on the intelligent look of upper class- men. Our roll consisted of sixteen members sponsored by Mr. Boyd. Jack Houdersheldt who came from Columbus was the only newcomer to our class that year. After about a week we elected the following class officers : Janet Coleman, president; Jack Houdersheldt,vice-president; Pal Lyon, sec- The subjects set before us were English 10, biology, world history, and algebra.
