SENIOR HISTORY number of times they were called upon to meet with salesmen, etc. Everyone enjoyed the weiner roast which was held near Scotch Ridge in October. Was everything to happen on one day? The seniors received notice that their rings were at the post office. That same day they traveled to Livingston Studio in Toledo to have their pictures taken. Oh, that's right! the seniors decided to publish the first annual of Troy High School. This demanded a considerable amount of their time, but with the help of Miss Rolfes and Mr. Grubaugh, they managed quite well. Of course, the seniors attended the Halloween party held in the gym and everyone had a good time. Since the class is known for its ability to cooperate, the selection of the various graduation necessities was an easy task. Oh dear, only a few more weeks left! Ah! what's this! An invitation from the juniors! For what? The Junior-Senior Banquet held at the school on May 2. The room was decorated in Indian style. The seniors presented their class play, HYoung Doctor Youngn, on May 8. Well, well, here they were at the end of their high school career! The class receiv- ed much good advice at the Baccalaureate, which was held in the school auditorium. Rev. Veler delivered the message. On May 20, the senior class was assembled for the last time as a class--at the Commencement Exer- cises. Rev. Humbert was the guest speaker.

SENIOR HISTORY lRemember the beautiful mustaches the men teachers had that night.l Several members again took part in the music festival, some of whom played in the band and orchestra. At the end of the year they enjoyed a weinf er roast with the juniors. Here they were again--back in good old Troy High! This time as juniors. This was certain to be an event- ful year! -For one thing, two wings had been added to the school and the old building redecorated. New equipment was installed. These improvements made life much more pleasant at Troy and made it possible to add a few-new subjects to those offered. Miss Rolfes be- came the new advisor. The officers elected for the year were: George Brinker, president, Bruce Baker, vice president, and Catherene Christiansen, secretary- treasurer. Oh, they must get busy and select a class play at once! The junior class attended the high school Halloween party and had a very good time. The play was selected and presented on December 12, 1939. The title--HThe Scarecrow Creeps.N O-o-o-oh, what a scare! It proved to be a great success and - the pro- ceeds made their bank roll much larger. In January, the class held a party at the home of Eloise Moenter. Everyone reported a good time. Alice Schmeltz decided to set sail on the sea of matrimony, so the class en- rollment was reduced to sixteen. Toward the end of February everyone seemed to be very happy and excited. Why? The Troy Trojans were Wood County finalists and doing very well in the district tournament. The school year quickly drawing to a close, they honored the seniors at a WDutchN banquet, which was held in the new cafeteria room on May 3, 1940. After the banquet, the group attended the Cla-zel theater at Bowling Green, Ohio. The juniors sadly realized that next year it would be they who would have to leave. What, only eleven? Yes, only eleven of the former sixteen students enrolled for the senior year. They felt very down-hearted about this. To think that the others did not consider it worth while to finish high school!
