Dear Diaryg Freshman. We're on our way up in this old world. This is the future fame of America writing on the assembly walls, running down the halls, and murdering the English language. Around the Pow Wow table was Alton Dougherty, Presidentg Ceamer Denny, Vice-Presidentg Jim Tom Kinnick, Secretary and Treasurerg Marlene Dougherty, Student Councilg and Mr. Hixson, Head Chief over the twenty three warriors. We started the year out in a gay mood with a party at Mr. Holeman's. And set a new world record of fourteen hamburgers for one person. Initiations. The upper-classmen out did themselves. The girls trailed an onion smell for days afterward and for once the boys objected to lipstick. Johnny Ray was bawling about The Little White Cloud That Cried and the Lions were crying victory over Whiteland in the County Tourney. Ivanhoe was the educational movie of the year but most of us pre- ferred a different education-- Too Young To Kiss. We were right up there pitching withthe pros when it came to activities. The Frosty Freshmen were well represented in band, chorus, Sunshine Society, Future Farmers of America, basketball, and baseball. Sophomores. The year of big events. From Here To Eternity was the box-office special--so was Marylin Monroe. Liberace Made his grand appearance but we preferred pops like Changing Pardners. And our back- fire to the teacher was I refuse to answer on the grounds that it might incriminate me quote McCarthy. The mud fight between the Republicans and Democrats still splattered on even after the Republicans won. But back in our bend of the road life traveled at a slower pace. At the round table fwe're no squaresl was Giles Eldridge, Presidentg Jim Tom Kinnick, Vice-Presidentg Marlene Dougherty, Secretary and Treasurerg and Beatrice Beckley, Student Councilg with Mr. Ray as Dictator. As Sophomores always do, we studied when the teachers were looking and sometimes when they weren't. Mr. Holeman's room was still cold as Canada, Mr. Hixson's room was still smoky, and school still got dull at three o'clock. We still threw erasers and ran down the halls but even the teachers had to admit we were improving Qsome.l We were the biggest duck in the puddle. Us high pressure Sophs were in Sunshine, Future Farmers of America, chorus, band, baseball, and basket- ball. And we were proud as punch when Marlene Dougherty was elected yell leader. Our social life was sadly low but we did have one party at school. The boys played basketball and the girls played ping pong. We were at the anti- social age. Clark was the sectional champs and the pass word was Lions. We got a three day parole minus hard labor Qexams.l And shortly after the sectional the red letter day came. The day we ordered our class rings. It took us two periods to decide what kind of rings we wanted.
