Looking back on our freshman year, we re- member our class officers: Arf Wyaff, presidenfg Glen Pierce, vice-presidenfp Lois Porfner, secrefaryp and Dorofhy O'Brien, Treasurer. Some of our mosf vivid memories of geffing sTarTed in school are The mounfain of Texf books They piled on us The firsf day, going info The wrong classrooms. and Trying To work The combinafions on our lockers. Then, foo, mosf of us enfered clubs, one of The mosf popular being The dramafic club. Grand- mofher Nick, given before The sfudenf body as a regular assembly, was a demonsfrafion of our class's dramafic abilify wifh Dave Morris, ArT Wyaff, George Singleferry, Lorraine Marshall, Joy Odcly. and Gloria Maffhews represenfing our class. Demonsfrafing our originalify, The freshman dance, held on May 8, was a cosfume parfy, and Those who came were aTTired in gay cosfumes of every descripTion. Affer finishing fhaf firsf year and becoming sophomores, we sTarTed off The year by elecfing as our officers: Dean Schroeder, presidenfp Don Schroeder, vice-presidenfg Bill Gusfafson, secrefaryg and Bob Wafson, Treasurer. Our sophomore dramafic club presenfed Swep+ Clean Off Her FeeT as The class play. The leading parfs were Taken by Audrey Ham- rin, Melva Yellin, Dave Morris, Paf Benneff, and George Singleferry. We never will forgef The firsf Spring Revue, Going My Way - rehearsing every nighf unfil we could hardly sfand and Then The big 1 The annual sophomore class dance, The Spring Swing, was a big success. The music was furnished by The Rhyfhm Hawks and a record crowd of one hundred and fwenfy-fwo couples affended. Affer leaving The rank of lower classmen, we were-of The world. During our iunior year we elecfed for officers: Glen Pierce, presiclenfg Bill Paull, vice-presidenfg Henry Funk, secrefary: and Tom Palmer, Treasurer. As usual we were engaged in The acfivifies of many clubs. This year even more of us parficipafed in The second annual Spring Revue. Lef's Call lf a Day. Again There was The husTle and fervor of prac- ficing finally climaxed by The opening nighf. Pracfice, pracfice, pracfice, was whaf our junior Thespians did for The class play. On December 3. Thornfon Wilder's Our Town, unique in fhaf no scenery is needed, was presenfecl by The class wiTh Henry Funk, Dave Morris, and Jane Bagley holding The sfarring roles. If was nearly The end of The school Term and Time for The rnosf imporfanf social evenf of The year-The Junior Prom. A formal Grecian garden wifh whife as The basic color accenfuafed by green palms was The Theme of The dance, and The crowning of The prom queen, Jean Day, climaxed The evening. Now The school year was over and many of us were Thinking abouf our senior year. while a few ofhers were making plans for enfering one of The armed services or going To college on The accelerafed program. Senior Class of I945 had a very en- year. The firsT acT of The class in preparaTion ioyable and successful for iTs final year Took place in The spring of 1944 when The class officers were chosen. AfTer a biTTerly conTesTed elecTion Bill FleTcher was made presidenf: Henry Funk, vice-presidenfg PaT Frazier, secrefary: and Tom Palmer, Treas- urer. These officers led The class very ably dur- ing iTs lasT year of high school. Seniors were also elecTed To The imporTanT STudenT Council offices. Bill Gusfafson was presidenTg Paul Riddle, vice-presidenT7 Rose- mary DoroThy, secreTary1 and PaT Nicholls, Treasurer. During The year Bill was forced To leave for The Service and Paul Took over The presidency. The EOS and The Red and Blue were also capably led by members of The senior class. LasT spring Jane Pierce was elecTed Edifor of The I945 EOS. The Senior ediTors of The Red and Blue were Barbara Doane, Jeanne Plain, and Charlene Quinn. The annual Senior dance, The Snowfalke So- naTa, was well received by The enTire sTudenT body. Ralph Weber and Joy Oddy were The co-chairmen. The ouTsTanding feafure of The dance was The elaborafe snowflake decoraTions. AT The annual band benefiT carnival a rush- ing business was carried on aT The Telegraph concession which was sponsored by The seniors. This was one of The mosT popular concessions aT The carnival.

This building was locaTed where Mary A. Todd Grade School now stands. HWell, Bill, it looks like we have an all-day job here-peeling potatoes. Itss mighty tiresome but someone has to do it. You know we shouldn't criticize the officers for assigning unpleasant jobs because after all, itis one of their duties. '6It's the same with school teachers, too. Dur- ing school it's awfully easy to criticize them, but after we get out, we realize there was a reason for all the tough assignmentsf' Yes, Bill, thatas right. We rlon't'really appre- ciate our teachers until we have finished school. Speaking of teachers, do you remember . . . ?,' ,.,.w..

Mrs. Helen T-larshbarger, Tormer English Teacher and advisor To The Red and Blue and EOS, was replaced during The year by Mrs. ArdiThearl Thompson.
