We as seniors look back on the year 1948 and remember our first day of school. It is with regret that we leave all these days of trial and fun behind us. That first day was a mad rush from one class to another, looking for someone from whom we could buy a study hall book. We, all 119 of us. were taken in by usual pranks and jokes that are pulled on green freshmen. But then we had our first class meeting. It gave us a feeling of importance, when we elected as our first class officers: Earl Malone, president: Joe Paulin, vice president: and Ronnie Birchler, secretary- treasurer. For our student council representative we chose Joe Spencer. Our sponsors were Mr. Hollen and Miss Royal. For freshman cheer leaders we chose Earl Malone, Joyce Kramer, and Tootie Frieler. Tootie was also elected Junior Carnival Queen. Bob Freeman received high recognition as an outstanding football player. As we were yet rather unfamiliar with extra curricular activities, our only sponsored activity was a Sadie Hawkins dance, which proved to be a huge success. We soon found the end of our first year swiftly approaching, so we made plans for the annual class picnic which was held at Lincoln City. Ready for vacation, we closed our books for summer. The vacation passed quickly and we again found ourselves back in school, electing officers to aid us through our sophomore year. They were: Ronnie Birchler, president; Bob Freeman, vice president; Mary Lou Hoffman, secretary-treasurer; and Charles Schrieber and Sue Hubbs as our student council represent- atives. Mr. Hollen and Mr. Sprinkle were chosen as class sponsors. Disregarding school tradition, we ordered our school Jackets and sweaters in the late fall instead of waiting until our junior year. On December 2, between halves of the Tell City--Mt. Vernon game, we presented the coronation of T. C. H. S. 's second basketball queen. In early spring our class sponsored the annual Faculty vs. Seniors basketball game. We had accomplished very much this past year and looked forward to our next year, when we would be upperclassmen.
