Class Hi tory It was early one September morning when the Wildcat Baseball Team gathered for the first time on the Marysville High School grounds for our first season. Everyone was hoping they would make out alright in the new surroundings. We re -organized our team. The pitcher Qpresidentj was Harry Stine. The catcher fvice-presidenty was George Beck. The first baseman fsecretaryj was Gladys Hiddemen and the second baseman Qtreasur- erj was Shirley Rowe. The first part of our excitement came when we were initiated into the league by the oldest team fsenior classy. Our new coaches were Mrs. Eater and Mr. Reed. Everyone was excited over receiving jackets. At the beginning of our second season we decided to re -organize our team again because we had lost some of our players. The ones we lost were John Urban, Thelma Hazzard, Mardella Jumper, Emma Lucas, Alberta Smalansky, Dolores Hoffman, Carolyn Black, Florence Fenicle, Elaine Pierce, and John Bailey. We then elected Harry Stine as our new pitcher fpresidentj, George Beck as catcher Qvice-pre- sidentj, Gladys Hiddemen as first baseman Qsecretaryj, Shirley Rowe as second baseman ftreasurerj and Joanne Jacobs as third baseman fhistorianj. During that year, we ordered our Qclassj rings which we were to receive at the beginning of the third series. A number of things had happened while we were on our vacation. Our league fschoolj had joined with Duncannon. We were called Susquenita Blackhawks. Our team remained the same with the ex- ception of the pitcher fpresidentj and the third baseman Chistorianj. We elected Steve Kenee as our next pitcher Qpresidentj and Lois Zimmerman as third baseman fhistorianj. We received a new player Q mem- berj, Paul Lightner, at the beginning of the third series. Those who had not signed up for another year were Merl Barrick, Edward Snyder, Bernadine Tidd, Shirley Swinn, Frank Dorbert, Gerald Foster, Richard Hepler, Kenneth Jackson, Elwood Miller, Charles Thompson and Joanne Jacobs. Rose Derick left us in the middle of the season. Mrs. Eater and Mr. Reed remained our coaches. We chose Education is Foundation as our team Qclassj motto. Everyone was excited to receive their rings at the beginning of the season. We also received new hats. We sponsored the All Star Victory Dance fpromj which went over as a big success. It was during this year that we lost one of our coaches, Mrs. Eater. Mrs. Scheibley became our new coach and finished the season with us. We sponsored a few dances, a swimming party, soup and bake sales, and we had a play to help raise money for our team.
