8 . Q President - - WARREN LATSHAW Secretary - - ROSALINE BRANT Treasurer - DAVID WEIMER 'Twas that eventful year 1940 . . . cmd with a boisterous Company halt! . . . one . . . two a troop of greenies, 275 strong. marched up and stopped before the wel- coming portals ot S. H. S. These were the new draftees under Commanding Officer, Robert Morin, arriving to begin their basic training. They immediately fell-in to their work with unsurpassed viw and vigor. In midwinter to boost the morale of the camp a Freshmen Circus was presented, in which the Rookies very realistically portrayed clowns, strong men, comedians, skaters, and even a true-to-life bull fight. Of course, they had K. P. duty, too . . . serving mess to the hungry football fans. This was done to finance future class activities. Iames Critchfield, who was later trans- ferred, served as their C. O. for the follow- ing two years. Under his supervision they sponsored a most unusual dance-The Cod Fish Ball-for the Seniors. And having pep and talent galore, they gave us many un- usual and original assembly programs. fAs Iuniors many of their gifted musicians began to hold prominent places in our band, orchestra, choruses, and operetta cast. Sev- ., an-1 ,... '-' fi Qi if Brant, Weimar, Latshaw eral of their sportsmen began to see some real varsity action. But 'twas in drama they excelled!-their modern version of The Taming of the Shrew will long be remem- bered. The high light of this year was the Iunior-Senior Prom with it's quaint Holland setting.-Their ingenuity even included a large tulip-strewn dike and a colorful wind- mill-to make the Dutch atmosphere au- thentic. And now another promotion-Seniors. At last our goal is almost within our grasp. After four years of strenuous work and play only 154 members of our class are left. Al- though we have not the quantity, our qual- ity is supreme. We can always be seen breathlessly hustling about in an attempt to set the pace for the various activities that are taking place. And to top them all, we presented the Seniors' annual class play, The Fighting Littles. Soon with the brisk command Forward march! we will proceed onward-rout into this wide and warring world to man our stations and help win and preserve our rightful heritage-peace!
