CLASS HISTORY We are only o class of twelve student filers, not very old, and as yet. Inexperienced. For four years we have been building a plane, T. H. S., 1946. This last year has been the year of our greatest accomplishments to date. Our plane Is a very beautiful, well-proportioned model, as It ought to be. Little by little, during our four years of high school, we have added the missing ports to a carefully planned whole. Four years ago we began In the ninth grade, with Nancy Ryan as our pilot. They called us freshmen. Y e didn't pay much attention to the jeers and slurs of the upper classmen. Y e let then fly away one by one every June until in time it would be our turn. Our main attraction during our freshman year was a hayride on which Don Thompson drove his team of horses. The wagon tipped over, but nobody was hurt. We had a swell time in spite of the misfortune. Mr. and Mrs. Don Huddleston were our chaperons. At the end of our freshman year, we lost three of our class members: Nancy Ryan, Jim Kessler, and Jim Pete. As freshmen, and as sophomores, we didn't have all work and no play, as that would moke us dull fliers. Avis 7icks piloted us through this second year. We hod dances, parties, and varied affairs among ourselves. Jim Vock and Donald Newcomb left us at the end of our sophomore year. As we look back now, we find that the years flew by and soon our junior year was upon us.We called Phyllis as our pilot. This year called for many money-making activities,, as we decided to go to New York after graduation. As juniors, we found it the custom to give the seniors a hop. We planned for several weeks how we would entertain the seniors, and finally decided to transform the gym into a ship. We spent many hours to show our amateur ability in decorating. When we finished, it was really magnificient. We served a chicken pie supper, and entertained by presenting two skits before the dancing. Our junior play, He Couldn't Marry Five, was a three act comedy,with a banker's son falling in love with five girls at the same time.The play was entertaining and proved to be profitable. Willard Osterhout and Ann Stewart left us this year. Now, our senior year! We flew through the year with Patricia Carr as our pilot. To add to its money, the class sponsored a minstrel show, with the whole high school participating. Another big attraction during our last year was our senior play, George in a Jam, a mystery combined with humor. We also sold stationery and Christmas cards, hot dogs and cokes. Five of our ciass are members of the band, several are mem- bers of the Dramatic Club and other organizations. Although we have only four boys in our class, we helped to win basketball honors, and brought achievements to Theresa High. All of us have been building our plane, now bright and shining, ready for its flight into the world.
