J. Simpson Bill Logan Max Sharp Edwin Rees Advisor President Vice-Pres. Sec.-Treas. Freshman History The sun was shining brightly on the morning of the 31st of August. Should one, standing on the steps of VCHS, have happened to look up, he would have seen a great, white stork floating overhead with a light green blanket in his mouth. This blanket contained 74 pieces of hurnanity, each one with his mouth wide open, hungry for the food that he was to find within the walls of Virden High School. Immediately after the stork had delivered his parcel to its destina- tion, the corners burst open, and out of the blanket crawled Bill Logan, leading the group. Max Sharp followed Bill ready to assist him in man- aging the newcomers. Edwin Reese followed Max, notebooks and pencil in hand, ready to record events as they happened and a multitude of other timid children filed in after the leaders to take their places as students of VCHS, Mr. John Simpson was chosen to Chaperone the host of stran- gers. The class took its first step when they nominated Marilyn Walking- ton as a candidate for Homecoming Queen. She attended Phyllis Ham- ilton as queen at the coronation on Homecoming Night. Many of the members of the class took bigger steps when they joined the football team, basketball team, FFA, FHA, Glee Club and Band. By the end of the year the freshman had open their eyes, discarded the modes and manners of babyhood, passed through the stages ofcraw- ling, toddling, and learning to talk, in fact had learned to assume re- sponsibility, and were then ready to proceed into the next three years of high school life striving to become citizens ofwhom VCHS will be proud.
