V ice-President REME BER HE On that memorahie day in September 1949, about 180 green and eager Freshmen en- tered those mighty doors upon the windhiown hill to revel in the knowledge that they were all free and equal. Yes, we the class of '52 once were those green Freshmen. Remember the razzing we got from the upperclassmen as we frantically rushed hy them to get to classes? During our first week as Freshmen many of our classmates had the misfortune of meeting up with some of these loving UQ upperclassmen, who deposited them on the water huh- hier. Like good sports we laughed and thought about next year when we would have the chance to initiate the next victims to enter the mighty doors of TI-IS for the first time. On

December 9, 1949, we staged the annual Freshmen Day Program. Many proud parents witnessed the Yuleticle event. Another year has begun and again the mighty doors swing wide with a promise, yet a challenge, to meet with joy and pride. As sophomores we understood more fully just what Tomah school lifeis. School life is the glory of seeing THS etched against the slcy day after day, of sipping colces with the gang after classes, it's the thrill of malcing friends who will never be forgotten, hum-drum days of gruelling classes, report card days, basketball and football games, and canteen. The big event of the year was our Sophomore Day Program. Even though many of us were scared stiff, Sophomore Day was very successful and from the Various comments heard, it was enjoyed by all who attended. When we entered the mighty doors of THS as Juniors, we realized that this was to be a special year for us. The big question that seemed to hover over the Junior Class was Who would be president and prom king? After quite a bit of campaigning, we placed our stamp of approval on Jim Lenz, president. This was the year we chose our class rings. Then before we lmew it preparations were started for the big event of the year, Junior Proml After much consideration April Showers was chosen as the theme. Originality combined with the genius made our Junior Prom something that will be a cherished memory. Realizing that we the Senior Class of '52 have come a long way since that day three years ago when we entered THS as bewildered, but eager Freshmen, we were determined to malce our Senior year tops. The year began with many students wishing that physics wasn't required. It isn't that it's hard it's just -1 oh well, we can wish can't we? We be- gan to thinlc more and more of the future as we discussed everyday problems in Room 214. Our class play went off beautifully. Commencement Day came all to soon and then our high school days were gone -1 but not forgotten. We still have our memories of it and although there were some unhappy moments, there were many more pleasant and happy ones. When we loolc baclc and remember our good times and the funny things that seem silly to us now, we smile and say, Remember When -1 ln
