E H? 'Gi 1ffw1'ff- f ?v3F'.iT'V ' 'f ' 4 'V' A . . 'J 4' X - I GRADE SEVEN A Seventh A has had a grand time this year. At the beginning of the term we elected the following class officers: president, Arbutus Lawrence, secretary, Delores Durnellg and treasurer, Thelma Gaither. We conduct class meetings every Friday during our Home Room period. We enjoyed parties on Hallowe'en, Christmas and Valentine's Day. At Christmas Time Richard Ellis managed to get us a big 10 foot Christmas Tree for our room.which we decorated with things that we brought from home or made in art class. During some of our homeroom periods we have played bingo and danced. In our Home Economics Class we made the Blackout curtains for Mr. Shank's room for the purpose of showing movies. We also made some things for the Red Cross. As a class we contributed to the Red Cross Fund, achieved our room quota for War Bonds and also did our part in the paper drives. We have tried during the year to be worthwhile citizens of the West Goshen School. GRADE SEVEN B The Seventh B class is an unusual group this year. we have several characteristics of which to be proud. In our class of thirty children, twenty-five of us were born in the years 1931 and 1932. This helps in coordinated thinking and cooperation of the group. We have done nmny fine things. In September we organized our class with the following officers serving for the first semester: president, Richard Brosius, vice-president, Ruth Chambers, secretary, George Crosley, treasurer, Marjorie Satterthwaite. In January we elected Hale Browne, president, vice-president, Joan Ellis, secretary, Patty Winters, and treasurer, Lenore Jones. We hold our class meetings every Friday, practicing parlia- mentary procedure. Our group is a live wire crowd as you will see by the list of prizes we have won. We won the P.T.A. prize for membership, seven P.T.A. attendance prizes, first prize in the sixth bond drive. Our class received the certificate for the upper grades in the salvage of records, books, and toothbrushes. we have taken an active part in other school activities. Everyone in our class, except one, has served on the safety patrol. Five of our members were in the Christmas Play. Five girls from our group worked hard in composing the words for our school song. Many of our members serve on the glee club and one is in the orchestra. Nine of us serve on the Newspaper Staff. Our Class believes in making good use of our money, having given five dollars to the March of Dimes, and three dollars to the Red Cross. We are very proud of our group, and we have faith that next year we will do bigger and better things for our school.
