Class History Twelve years ago we Seniors of '47'’ walked through the doors of various school buildings for the first time and optimistically demanded an education. Of the thirty-one who started at Waterloo—only fifteen have finished at Waterloo School— Beverly Duesler, Florence Crooks, Anita Rainier, Dale Kohl, M ax Fee, Donna Jean McBride, Willidene Crowl, Patricia Dull, Mary Jo Turner, Martha Gratz, Doris Weicht, James Hoxie, Haroid Shultz, Robert Knott, and Gail Smith. The rest of the Seniors of ‘47’ joined the school in the grades or in High School. We started our High School with an enrollment of fifty eager Freshmen, brimming with self- assurance that only Freshmen possess. We had that taken out by initiation though. However, we recovered in time to enjoy two class parties and a skating party. We were greatly assisted by our sponsor, Mr. Bowers. We gained Betty Likens from St. Joe the latter part of the Freshman year. We entered our Sophomore year with the enrollment of forty-eight. Our sponsor, Miss Yoder. y One big event was getting our class sweaters that year instead of in our Senior year as was the y usual custom. We also became active in sports and other activities. Some of the boys joined ly the Hi-Y and a few girls joined the Girl Reserves, but we weren't extremely active in sports or y other extra activities. j In the Junior year we had eight boys playing basketball and five boys playing baseball. Again we were under Miss Yoder, who directed us in the play, “The Daffy Dills.”” Our Junior- Senior reception was the best yet, at least we thought so. As Juniors we got our class rings, and as usual some of them didn't keep them long on account of girls. As Seniors we started out with an enrollment of thirty-eight but we lost Betty Frick and Eugene Gael. George Strock, Charles Wilson and Aubrey Treesh were discharged from service and came back to finish school. However, they took a Government test and passed it so they didn't continue to attend classes in school. They graduate in May along with the rest of the class. For funds this year we sponsored two successful wastepaper drives and a class play en- titled, “The Meddlesome Maid.” The Speech Class gave three one-act plays called, ‘‘Midnight Ghost,” ‘The Ghost Wore White,” and ‘The Little Red School House.”’ Five boys got basketball sweaters given to them by the school. Our sponsor this year was Mr. Bowers, who also gave us a big help with the Yearbook. We will always be grateful to our parents for providing us with the opportunity to receive a high school education and to our teachers for the patience and consideration that they have shown throughout the years we were with them. Our faith in our homes and our school is the basis of the confidence with which we face the future. —JAmMES Hoxie PAGE 24

Junior History We, the class of '’48,’’ started on our long, hard, journey for knowledge in 1936 with 30 pupils under Miss Bolton. Most of us possed on to the second grade, our teacher being Miss Brandon. Miss Hamman and Miss Dirrim did their best to increase our knowledge in the third and fourth grades. In the fifth and sixth grades Mr. McIntosh and Mr. Gurtner gave us a helping hand. From there we passed into Junior High. Our home room teachers in Junior High were Mr. Shore and Mr. Blomeke. Through our Freshman and Sophomore years Mr. Bowers was our advisor. As Juniors we have 38 pupils. To enlarge our treasury, we have sponsored two dances, a skating party, a successful play, and sold pop and refreshments at the basketball games. We also gave the annual reception for the Seniors. Miss Noffsinger has been our advisor this year.
