an Q rv- I-X CLA:,:, J-Hr, IOM In the fall of '39, thirty-one freshmen took their places in the large study hall to begin four years of work and fun together in high school. Most of us had an aim to strive for. Before the year was over, we lost Esther Jacobs. This started a decline in our at- tendance which somehow never stopped. We had a great time during our initiation, and, on the whole, our freshman year was a good beginning. At the opening of the sophomore year Jack Jennings entered our class to make thirty-one of us together again, eager to plan the freshman initiation and show our authority. At last we were boss over someone! What an achievement! To put a damper on our spirits we- lost two more members, Mary Young and Joan Soles. When we finally revived from our sophomore whirl, we awoke to find ourselves juniors. Imagine that! We soon began to realize that we were in the midst of a large task. With a great deal of team work, we success- fully put over our junior play, HBo1ts and Nuts.W In an early American Indian atmosphere we enter- tained the seniors at the annual banquet. The men's quartet from Bowling Green University furnished music. After the banquet we went to Toledo to see a stage show But again that dark cloud hung over us. This time more than ever, for we knew five of our classmates were leaving us. Anna Tracy and Lester Jacobs quit school, Jack Jennings moved to Edgerton, Joe Young joined the C-C-C, and Jean Aspacher moved to Gibsonburg. Then came the fall of '41, We were seniors at last! Marietta Fausnaugh entered our class to make twenty- five members, but before the first semester was over we had lost Lois McCrary and Fern Soles. We gave two plays, nThe Great Ben Allahu and WThe Antics of Andremw Ordering our rings, gowns, invitations and the like played a big part in our senior year. Leading up to the climax of our high school life was the Junior- Senior Banquet, which we all enjoyed. Then came that for which we had been striving, our Baccalaureate and Commencement. ,4,,.,
