Senior Class History In the fall of 1933, fifteen seventh graders entered Junior High School. When the seventh and eighth grades organized together, as is their custom, all officers for the first semester were elected from the eighth grade. We started out with Miss Householder as our class advisor, but when she left Mr. Canfield took her place. During the second semester John Shedd became Vice-President. For our first semester party, we went to our local theater and had refreshments afterwards. For our second semester party we went to Coldwater to the Tibbits Theatre and after the show we went to an ice cream parlor. When we became eight - graders, Miss Ash became our class advisor, and has continued to be for the last five years. At our class meeting all the officers were chosen from our class. For our two semester parties we again went to the movies and were served with refreshments afterwards. In 1935 we the Freshman class, consisting of twenty-five members, organized and the following officers were elected: President — Jack Fousel, Vice-President — Donna Goff, Secretary and Treasurer — Donald Schofield. Wi were entertained by the Sophomores at the Freshmen-Sophomore Banquet. We also had our two class parties, one each semester, at which we again attended movies at the Tibbits Theatre. As Sophomores, we elected officers as follows: Anita Belle Johnson — Pres- ident, John Shedd — Vice-President, Madge Leatherbury — Secretary and Treasurer. Now it was our turn to entertain the Freshmen, and we also had our two class parties. When we became Juniors Marlin McElhenie was elected President; Madge Leatherbury — Vice-President; Anita Belle Johnson — Secretary and Treasurer. Our class parties became somewhat different. We started having all-school parties which included the grades from the seventh through the twelfth. One of the main events of the year 1938 was the Junior Play, “Bashful Bobby” which was under the direction of Miss Ash. The last great event of the year however was the Junior-Senior Prom at which we entertained the Seniors at the Marshall Country Club. We all had a grand time at, this affair with everything from punch to a swell swing band. The first of this year as Seniors we held a class meeting and elected the following officers: President— Anita Belle Johnson Vice-President — Rose Ellen DeLong Secretary — Madge Leatherbury Treasurer — Marlin McElnenie We are having all-school parties again this year since they were such a big success last year. We Seniors are selling hot dogs, candy, coffee and pop corn at the basketball games. One of the biggest events so far this year was the Senior Play “Bachelor’s Choice” which was a big success. Miss Ash was the director of this play also. We are looking forward to the many other activities of our class such as, Skip Day, Baccalaureate, Junior and Senior Prom, and Commencement. There will be some unpleasant memories but mostly pleasant memories of our high school days in the future.
