HISTORY OP THE CLASS OF '48 President . . Bob Deacon Vice-President . . Hobie Helman Secretary . . Norma I. Scott Treasurer . . Lawrence Hoffman MOTTO: Bravely, faithfully, successfully. COLORS: Maroon and White. FLOWER: Carnation. What a wonderful day it was in 1936, when Miss Crabtree and Miss Keechle greeted our class of ninety-two first graders. Only the following nineteen of the original class remain in the class of forty-seven graduates: Curtis Kordell, Margery Miller, Morris Swiger, Norma lean Scott, Thelma Tackett, Betty Fulscher, Donna lean Breitsn- bach, Mary Woods, Dolores Whaley, Dolly Zonner, Iohn McCoy, Ioe Rhoads, Iuanita Keechle. Pat Moore, Herman Harris, Annetta Armbruster, Hobart Helman, Ann Beninger. As we studied and played, time and grades slipped by rapidly. We especially enioyed home-made candy sales, making rag rugs, special programs, double recesses for perfect spelling, and the Junior American Citizen Club. After finishing the sixth grade, we felt quite important as we marched into the Clough Street High School, but that feeling soon changed to amazement at the long corridors, all those bells, and a new teacher for every class. The eighth grade test climaxed our junior high school. We were rather proud of the results. During our freshman and sophomore years we were constantly looking forward to publishing the Hi-Lltes and to doing all the wonderful things that iuniors and seniors do. Then our turn came. Publishing the Hi-Lites was a mad scramble: producing the junior class play, Apron- String Revolt, was hard work but lots of fung and the Iunior-Senior Banquet was a delightful social affair given at Lake White. Finally came our big year packed full of senior activities. We immediately went into action to produce a bigger and better Waverly Novel. To meet the demands of our budget, we sold subscriptions for the year book, procured advertising, published the school paper, and gave after-game dances. Mr. Marble took care of the photography while we snapped and snapped snaps. We also typed and retyped manuscripts until the dummy was ready. Meanwhile many of us were also busy playing basketball, cheerleading, playing in the band, and singing in the glee club. Then, to tax our brains were the Bank Essay Contest, the D. A. Fl. Test, and the Senior Scholarship Test. We felt however that the crowning events were during that last week: the Baccalaureate, the Class Play Quiet Summer, Commencement, and the Alumni Banquet.
