Page 28 THE HI-ROCK Alumni iiotrs In the first and second issues of our school paper, the HI-ROCK. I summarized what the class of 1942 and 1941 were doing or had been doing since they left school. Joseph Armer, a member of the class of 1942, was the only one in the armed forces when the first issue was printed. Now there are two other boys from the same class who have joined, Thomas Har rington and Richard May. Every girl from this class had worked except Lorraine Perry but now she is working in Schenectady. When the second issue went to press, there were three boys of the class of 41 who had joined up with Uncle Sam. Daniel Hewitt, Walter Grinnell and James Alger. Since that time Arthur Stone and Kenneth Johnson have been called. All the girls from this class are either working in offices, married or going to college. To make the last issue of our school poper for this semester a little more interesting and more complete. I’ve de- cided to give the name of each student from the class of 1940, their address and a little paragraph telling what has been occupying their time for the last three years. Jasmine Hull Ithaca College Ithaca. New York Valedictorian and most valuable student of the class of 1940—now studying to become a music teacher. Jasmine, we all know you will be a success, as we have heard you sing as well as play. We wish you the best of luck. Doris Reynolds Middleton 5 Commercial Avenue Warrensburg.
