CLASS HISTORY CLASS OFFICERS J. Lovett, M. R. Stajakovich, L. V. Meager, J. Berg. Seniors! Ah, the joy of it all! To most of' us it really isn't difficult to recall that day in September, 1944, when into the House of Education we entered ---- 58 of us, full of pep and vitality, and anxiously waiting to tackle Algebra, Latin and English. Which, to our dismay, ended up in tackling us. To prove to our upper classmen that we weren't as gre-en as they supposed, we decided to organize and Choose class officers. Our well conducted election fhmll, proved to be successful and Pete Kucan was chosen president, Chester Szmyd vice president, Dorothy Noll secretary, and Joan Peduzzi treasurer. In spite of all the brawls in class, and fight- ing with the teachers, not counting Ungie's trips to the office, our class had some really fine beginnings. Joann Peduzzi and Mary Rose Turchan helped grace the May Queen's court in their beautiful yellow gowns. Also, to help pep up our cheering section at the games, Joann Peduzzi was sel- ected as our own special cheerleader. Our Freshman parties turned out to be Sadie Hawkins' Day Dances. Any boy lucky enough to get away was spared dancing with a girl. We owe our thanks to Miss Byers and Miss Bierer for helping to make our parties a success. Also to Mr. Steve Turchan, who aided in securing dancing partners for the female members of the class. We wish to add, that in our Freshman year we discovered that we had some talent in our midst. In the presentation of Ask the l'rofessor , Mel Ray, Doc Shane, Bill Camp, and Howard Hauth, played the leading roles, and we might add it was a hit. Both the Freshman Boys and the Freshman Girls were not so suc- cessful in Basketball, being defeated in all our Intrainurazl games. Our pride was shattered. Finally, after much struggling, we advanced to our second year in this mysterious house and occupied the seats of the Sophomores. Now, at last we had someone to pick on! We were no longer Greenies. Our class elections Went over smoothly this year and Thomas Shane came out on top as President, Pete Kucan, Vice President, Joann Peduzzi, Secretary, . and Johnny Lovre, Treasurer. Elva Rubright and Betty Radosh were chosen as attendents in the May Queen election and they both wore aqua gowns.
