At the first of the year there was a question as to what courses to take. After much debating some took Latin and algebra; others took general mathematics and vocational guidance; still others took a mixture of the two. Everyone took the required English, physical education, and home economics or industrial arts courses. Our class was well represented in the music department, having eight in the orchestra, ten in the band, and ten in the chorus. Two of our girls were twirlers for the marching band. We had one solo entry in the Solo and Ensemble Contest this spring. A number of boys participated in the intramural activities while the girls chose G. A. A. Bowling also attracted a few. Five of the boys played on the basketball teams, and we were proud to have two of them on the first team. Kathryn Montano and Robert Caron were elected to act for us on the Student Council. Dorothy Mason, Fairbourne Patchell, and William Dean held positions on the Westerner staff this year and did commendable work. A number of girls wrote articles for the weekly school column in the Times-Gazette. We close this year with success and are looking forward to next year when we shall be “silly” Sophomores.

SOPHOMORES We, the class of ’43, forty-five students strong, have progressed from the ranks of “green Freshmen” to “silly Sophomores,” which we have attempted to live down. Although everyone took the required courses of English and health education, we were divided in opinion about Latin, biology, general business, and history. High school art proved interesting to a few of the students; and most of the class spent two periods of each week in physical education, playing such games as: Indian kickball, basketball, volleyball, ring tennis, ping-pong, and various other games. We were largely represented in G. A. A. with ten of our twenty-five girls participating in the weekly games and the Indian kickball tournament, in which we passed the preliminaries only to be defeated by our long rivals—the Juniors. We are proud of our boys who played as Kittens, and now are waiting for the time when they may “step into the shoes” of the present Wildcats. Our more talented music students did their share in the band and orchestra, while our thoughts and suggestions were presented to the Student Council by Lola Hendricks, Smith Haber, and Leon Teegarden. Under the supervision of Miss Nielson, we ran a column in the Times-Gazette entitled “West Side News,” with most of the members of the class assigned as reporters to the numerous subjects. Looking hopefully towards the future when we shall be recognized as upper class-men, we expect to make a place for ourselves in the history of Union City High School. —Joan Welbourn TOP ROW—William Ely, John Murphy.

The course of study includes English, history, arithmetic, home economics, industrial arts, science, art and music. One of the first events of the year was a Hallowe’en party in the music room. Prizes were awarded for the best costumes. Dancing and games provided entertainment. Appropriate refreshments were served. (Continued on page 28) TOP ROW—Pauline Smith, Eunice Moore.
