PROGRESS OF YEARS SENIOR HISTORY Amiost the hills of southeastern Ohio were twenty-six tooolers who had mul- tiple PLEASANT EXPERIENCES THAT RESULTEO IN A PROGRESSIVELY BETTER OUTLOOK FOR EACH NEW TOMORROW. THESE TOCDLERS ARE RECOGNIZED AS SENIORS TODAY. TWELVE CF THE GROUP VENTURED INTO THE FIRST GRAOE ROOM AT ThE PLAINS FlEMENTARY SCHOOL ONE humid September morning in 19 4-2. A few were accompanied by mothers, but most of THESE STUOENTS CAME ALONE. The TWELVE WERE GARY ALTON, RONNIE BuMGARDNEP, RlTA Lee, Nancy Lonas, Dennis McAllister, Geraldine Sharpe, Barbara Smith, Dolly Smith, Sue Smith, Frank Stalder, Cheryl Thompson, and Phyllis Winner. The re- maining FOURTEEN ATTENDEO OTHER SCHOOLS. The FIRST GRADE TEACHER WAS MRS. WlL- ma Johnson. Other elementary teachers were Mrs. Camilla Weisenbach, second grade; Mrs. Emma Beckley, third grade; Miss Alta Cooper, fourth grade; Miss Irene Elliott, fifth grade; and Miss Elva Cooper, sixth grade. Dull moments were few. We went to Mrs. Darnell's home to view President Eisenhower's inaugauration on TV. we made a trip to a bakery; following that WE TRIED OUR SKILL AT MAKING BREAD. We ALSO VISITED BEASLEY'S WHOLESALE COM- PANY. WE INVITED OUR MOTHERS TO VISIT US AND ENJOY TEA ON MOTHERS' DaY. ANOTHER TIME WE MADE CAREFUL PREPARATIONS AND INVITED BOTH OUR MOTHERS ANO FATHFRS TO VISIT MIGHT SCHOOL.

We HAD A DOLL SHOW WITH PRIZES FOR THE OLO- EST, THE SMALLEST, AND THE LARGEST ONES; WE ALSO HAO A JAPANESE EXHIBIT. After becoming accustomeo to school life on the first floor, we took the manual ESCULATOR 1 to THE SFCONO FLOOR TO BE MEM6ERS OF THE THIRO, FOURTH, FIFTH, ANO SIXTH GRADES. THERE WE CONTINUED THE STUOY OF READING, WRITING, AND ARITH- METIC. THE MOST MEMORIAL OCCASION, TO BE SURE, WAS OUR GRADUATION EXERCISES FROM THE ELEMENTARY LEVEL; AND THEN WE LOOKED AT A NEW TOMORROW IN THE LARGE HIGH SCHOOL BUILDING. We FELT LIKE VERY SMALL CREATURES IN A NEW WORLD DURING OUR FIRST YEARS IN HIGH SCHOOL. THE COURSES WERE DIFFERENT FROM THOSE IN THE EARLIER YEARS.
