CLASS HISTORY FRESHMEN Into the halls of Smithville High came a group of bashful green freshmen. For some it was the second entrance into the hallowed halls, for they had already greeted these halls in the capacity of eighth graders. Others came from distant places of learning, including a great number from Madisonburg. They acquired a class sponsor, Miss Porter, by name, who lent her able assist- ance to their endeavors. They were ably initiated into the new high school life by the Sophomores, who were not merciful or sympathetic. Some members of the class were on the baseball team, which captured the County championship in that year of 1949. The duly elected officers were as follows: President .......................................,..,.............. ...,..... D ick Hahn Vice-President ....... .,,.....

S ara Burkholder Gene Caskey Reporter ...................,.. ..... M ary Jane Johnson Sergeant at Arms ...............,.,........................,..................... Carl Beichler In addition the reserve cheerleaders were chosen by the school from their class. They were Mary Burkholder, Sara Burkholder, and Ruth Donaldson. SOPHOMORES At the 'start of the sophomore year they remembered the former year, and they themselves initiated the Freshmen. This and others were accomplished with the aid of their advisor, Miss Porter. After much discussion they selected their class colors of blue and white. They ordered sweaters, which arrived in December for a Merry Christmas. Mary Burkholder, Sara Burkholder, and Ruth Donaldson were again elected as reserve cheerleaders by the school. The projects that year of 1950 were selling basketball schedule pencils and a bake sale. The officers were: President ........... Vice-President ..... Secretary ....,...... Treasurer .............
