FRESHMEN HISTORY THE FIRST YEAR OF OUR HIGH SCHOOL CAREER OPENED AUGUST 3, I948 ABOUT 67 STUDENTS ENROLLED AS FRESHMEN OF THE VIPER HIGH SCHOOL. SOME OF OUR GROUP COULD NOT BEAR T0 SIT ON THE INSIDE OF FOUR DULL WALLS WHEN THERE WERE So MANY INVITING THINGS ON THE OUTSIDE. THE MASTER MIND OF THOSE WHO HAVE QUIT COULD NOT BE CONTENT' ED WITH THE LITTLE INSIGNIFIOANT THINGS THAT WERE FOUND IN THE SOHOOL ROOM. WHERE ARE THEY TODAY? LOOK INSIDE OUR NEW ATOMIC RADAR FORETELLING DE' VICEQ WHERE ARE THE BOYS? OF THOSE BOYS wHO ARE LEFT, WE FIND FREDDIE ROBINSON AND FRANKLIN CORNETT TAKING THEIR PLACES AMONG THE FIRST TEN OF THE BASKETBALL SQUAD.f THE TEACHERS MIGHT HAvE GAINED A FEW GRAY HAIRS DUE TO WORRYING OvER SOME MIScHIEvouS STU- DENTS, WHO CAME TO SCHOOL ONLY TO HAVE FUN AND MAKE TROUBLE. PERHAPS THE KIND HEARTED TEACHERS WILL REMEMBER THE GOOD THINGS ABOUT Us AND FOR- GET THE MIScHIEvouS STUNTS PULLED, SUCH AS ONE BOY SHOTTING A PAPER wAD AT ONE OF THE TEACHERS BY ACCIDENT THOUGH. TEACHERS MAY SOMETIMES FEEL HARD AT Us AND THINK WE ARE INCAPABLE OF LEARNING BUT WE PROMISE T0 TRY TO MAKE THE BEST OUR OF EVERYTHING. WE MAY BE GREEN HORN FRESHMEN NOW,BUT THERE ARE STILL MANY THINGS FOR US T0 LEARN. WE WERE PROBABLY THE GREENEST GROUP OF FRESHMEN EVER T0 ENTER VIPER HIGH SCHOOLQ FOR AT THE FIRST OF THE SEASON WE HARDLY EVER KNEW IF WE WERE COMING OR GOING. WE NEVER COULD GET TO OUR RIGHT CLASSES WITHOUT THE PRINCIPALIS TELLING US WHERE TO G0. IN CONCLUSION AND IN BEHALF OF THE FRESHMAN CLASS OF I948-I949, WE MAY BE GREENHORN FRESHMEN THIS YEAR, BUT WE ARE LOOKING FORWARD T0 BEING SILLY SOPHOMORES NEXT YEAR.
