THE FRESHMEN On the bright sunny day of September 9, 1940, a group of seventeen shy students entered the large assembly to be stationed there for the school year. Our class organized by electing these officers: Dorothy Douglas, President: Laurene Du- rnar, Vice President: Phyllis Hoaglin, Secretary-Treasurer: Edna. Murphy, Reporter. Mr. Bailey was our sponsor. After a few weeks of study, we were greeted by a group of jolly Sophoniores at the home of Ruth Mefferd for a hale and hearty initiation party. We were unfortunate, however, to lose three classmates between November and Janu- ary. George Henibrecht quit school to move to Indiana. Earl Rickard moved near Detroit yvhere he is continuing his schooling. Doris McCandlish left us in January and moved to Tif- fin, Ohio. We were sorry to lose them because it left our class with an enrollnient of four- teen tseven boys and seven girlsl. As one of our English projects, Mr. Schafer had us each write an essay on Lincoln and the Constitution to compete in a State Contest. Two essays, one girls and one boy's were selected from each class. Ours were Laurene Duniar's and Ersel Rice's. Throughout the year several roller skating and house parties were enjoyed by the class.
