FRE HNIE In September the Freshman Class strolled through the portals of Smithville High with a new and long sought dignity. True, we were only green little Fresh- men, but after all, wasn't that an improvement over last year when We were lowly eighth graders? We called a meeting and selected these worthy characters to guide us through the year of 1951-1952. President ........... .... R oger Ramseyer Vice-President Maxine Sheets Secretary .... . . .. Marion Falb Treasurer ..,....,...,,. .....,.. J im Mu.sser Student Council .... Bonnie Wagers Gene Kauffman The Sophomores, sensing our growing superiority, took it upon themselves to initiate us. This rather gruelling affair took place in November. But the fun We had afterwards more than made up for it. In December We had our first class party of the year in the roller skating rink at Madisonburg. We are all looking forward to next year when, instead of being initiated, we initiate!

We gave a Welcoming Party to the Freshman Class at the beginning of the year. Or rather it was the old traditional initiation. One of the great events was the arrival of our class sweaters. They were gray with green emblems and are we ever proud to wear them. Our class was represented in school activities including the reserve basket- ball team, speech activities, and music. With the help of our sponsor, Mr. Taylor, we have had a very successful year and hope the next will be just as successful.

Our first excitement was a Halloween party which was held at Janet Lytle's. Then our interest went for our basketball team. It wasn't the best team, but it was one of the teams that tried to do their best. Those who served on the team were Ward Murnaw, Dick Beaver, Dexter Woods, Gerald Harrison, Charles Fetter, Charles Troyer, Robert Starn, Robert Wirth, and Raymond Hoff. Mr. Krohe was our coach and did a wonderful job. Janet Lytle, Janice Shisler, and Phylis Swisher were our Cheer-leaders. They also did a good job of backing the team, besides the nice work they did in cheerleading. twenty-eight
