Eight years rase and forty- three scared freshman marched with knocking kne«-s into their classrooms at Warrensburg High. The year passed with little event e’ crot for initiation and 19 5 found only thirty-two silly sophomores returning. This year was much the same as the last, exceot they weren’t auite so scared and worked just a tin bit harder. Time passed on ara thirty- eight jolly Juniors beganonother year. The first nart of the t. rm vras not so crovded but during the second semester a ''lay, Don't Take My Penny , was soonsered by the Juniors and in ihv tsprin£ ..ho fun; ». . Ctnior prom was held at the Staley Club House Feeling quite proud of themselves, twenty seven Seniors reappeared in 19 6. Th3 Senior play ’’Believe It or jTot. was given in the fall and turned out to be a great success. Then of ter the Senior trio and commencement, the Seniors leave Wrrrensburg with gree.t dreams of the future. 25
