class of ’45 We are the class of ’45; We’re on our tees and “hep to jive”. We’ve had our fun and worries to, And some are sorry we’ll soon be through. We’ll soon leave school—the world to face, Use our knowledge and find our place. As we’ve a job that must be done— To fight for victory till the war is won. Then peace will send us another way. We hope to meet again some day. No matter when that day may be, Troy High School will live in our memory. —Pauline Ide CLASS SONG ( Tune—Tipperary ) We’ve had a grand time at Troy High School; Now we must say farewell. What we’ve learned here at Troy High School We’re surely proud to tell. Now gooodby Prof, and teachers. Students learn to strive To be as good for Alma Mater As we of ’45. —Adelaide Hulslander. Class History On the eventful day of September 7, 1941, 111 “green” Freshmen met for the first time inside the halls of Troy High School. The staring glances of the upper classmen made us feel as) strangers among so many people. At our first classmeeting we elected Graydcn Fanning, President; Glenn Havens, Vice President; Robert Schucker, Secretary; Agnes Shedden, Treasurer; which proved to be wise choices. On October 23 we had our first social event, the Freshman reception. After the ridiculous stunts we were called upon to perform, we no longer felt as green freshmen, but as welcome students to the High School we have grown to love. (Continued on Page 66) 25
