OUR FRIE DS, THE FRO H . . In the fall of '47 this class began its first lap around the track of higher education. With Fred XN'ingert in the front car and Barbara Richards tailing him, the class got ofi' to a smooth start. Nancy Heston kept the account of the first lap while XVanda .-Xrmentrout handled the finances. Yes, the Freshman class started their first high school year with a burst of speed. Their Pump- kin Polka, a juke-box dance held after a basketball game, was quite a success. Starting this year right found many of the class members joining numerous clubs. Among these more enthusiastic mem- bers Cynthia Campbell and -lim Breen were elected reporters for the Debate Club. Cynthia was also elected Scriptor of the Latin Club. On Student Council meeting days George Vance and Tom Suth- erland were found voicing their opinions along with the rest of the council. Helping hir. Jordan with a great deal of work in the ofiice were Sue C rumley and Cynthia Campbell. Shelving and stamping books in the library, under Miss Stout's direction. could be found Iileanor Garnier. I orma Hackle- man, and Rosemary Doran. l Some of the more musically minded individuals found their way into the High School Hand and Choir. Under Miss Shull's direction, John Nadolny, jim Delloss, and George Vance lend their vocal talents to the newly organized Boys' Octette which participated in both the elimination and the final solo and ensemble contests in February. .-Xt dramatics these freshmen were the tops. Dee Covell and Nancy Heston presented their talents in the Dramatics Club play. Christmas In Her Eyes. in which they portrayed two high school girls in a small town. In the Latin club play prese itcd for convocation, jim DeMoss played the God of Love, Cupid: John Nadolny played Apollo. Col of the Sun: and George Vance played Hercules, God of Strength. Both plays were greatly added to by these talented freshmen. In the Sports Department these freshmen really excelled. Some of the fellows pla 'ed both varsity football and basketball. This class also had a cheer ltader to represent them. Dee C vell, going out for her first time as a Varsity Cheerleader, deserves a round of applause for the excellent job she did all year. Harold liuykendall deserves praise fir the outstanding job he has doiie for his first year of varsity football and basketball. Harold really knocked 'em dead on the gTidiron and cer- tainly played admirable ball on the hardwood. The Freshman basketball team after a very successful season won their Freshman tourney. liach member of this fine team contributed to their success and all are equally proud of the tourney trophy present acl to them. I This class has had a splendid year full of wonderful memories. The Freshman initiation. their new club activities. all the new friends they made, basketball and football heroes. meeting at Nadol- ny's faithfully after each game, school dances, are only a few of the unforgetable events that took place. Also there are probably many things only individuals will remember. That first thrill of mak- ing a basket or a touchdown in a real game, that first heartthrob, that tirst office held in the class that coke at Eclclie's after a hard day at school, the day you found your name in the school paper, and many more. Freshmen, here's hoping that your second lap of education will be just as successful and prom- ising as your first and while completing this lap you have just as competent a carload of leaders and just as good a time,-so when the checkered flag is waving for you, you can look back with pride and say, I was a member of the class of '51.
