JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY On this page and scattered at random are briefly recorded the prin- cipal events of the Class of '39. To those who hurriedly scan this page this declaration is unnecessary, for who among them will forget even one of the stepping stones toward his career? One bright day, early in the fall of 1935, thirteen innocent boys and girls 'entered this high school and received the name of Freshies . In September, 1936, ten of the old members and three new members again entered the front door with a more solemn and serious outlook on the school life as sophomores. During the year we had one class party and one birthday surprise party at the homes of two of our members. Early in our junior year Paul Baker was elected president and Miss Rupprecht, adviser. Under their diplomatic guidance we have complet- ed the third year of high school without a relapse, and acknowledging that we are not yet fully saturated with knowledge, we are preparing to plunge into our senior and last year. Marie Kafer was elected vice pres- identg Doris Schieber, secretary, and Raymond Stuckman, treasurer. In November our class, portraying its dramatic ability, presented a three act comedy The Ready Made Family . We enjoyed one class party and two birthday surprise parties at the homes of three of our members. We are now looking forward to an enjoyable and successful year as seniors. -Martha Alkire. SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY As we ascended to the seventh step of our shool life we were facing a great change in our lives. We felt like kindergarten children before those dignified seniors, especially when we lost ourselves the first day. However, we quickly overcame that feeling and felt rather grown up among those younger than us. That year we had the new experience of electing class officers. The next year we entered the eighth grade. While on this step we gave debates, parties,weiner roasts, and plays. As our eighteen girls and boys reached the ninth step our accomp- llshments became more noticeable. We had boys on the basketball team, baseball team, girls on the newspaper staff, and in the A Capella choir. The officers elected during that year were: President, Warren Hendrickson: vice president, Loren Walker, secretary, Winifred Baird, treasurer, Mary Shoupg adviser, Mr. Turner. We had our first class par- ty that year at the home of Marjorie Kibler. Philip Cooper, president: Marjorie Kibler, vice presidentg Winifred Baird, secretary, Loren Walker, treasurer, Mr. Turner, class adviser, were the officers elected for this year. We had one class party at the home of Lois Geiger. Our efforts are receiving rewards this year. We have four girls in the A Capella choir and a number of boys starring in sports. There are only two stepping stones left and we intend to make them steps of success. f --Marjorie Kibler.

The next persons I met were Esther Fauser and Ethel Frank. Es- ther took up the duties of a good housewife and Ethel is a famous seam- stress. Donald Brown and Howard Presler were the last two boys to arrive. Donald owns a large farm which-he farms himself and Howard Presler holds the world's heavyweight championship title at present. Last but not least, Eleanor Light is a teacher of mathematics in one of the large universities. -Eleanor Light. Schoolmates, Superintendent, Teachers, Friends and Enemies: - The Class of 1938 of Sulphur Springs High School, City of Sulphur Springs, Coa i- ty of Crawford, State of Ohio of the United States of America, has called you togetacr upon this solemn and serious occasion, to listen to her last will and testament and to receive from her dying hand the few gifts she has to bestow in her last n.oments. Owing to the flighty condition of her brain, and the unusual disturbance in its gray matter, she begs for me to state for her that she may have been mistaken in her inventory: but such things as she thinks she owns she hereby gives into your pos .ession praying that you will accept them as a sacred trust from one who has gone before. Listen then one and all while I read the document as duly drawn up and sworn to: We, the Class of 1938, feel it a great l'onor but yet a sad affair to say farewell and depart from the good old days at Sulphur Springs High School.
