THE SENIOR CLASS HISTORY MOTTO: BEFORE US I.IES THE TIMBER, LET US BUILD COLOHSiblue and white FLOWER: WHITE CARNATION We, the class of ’42, today look back over our four years of high school, the four years that we spent together. Many important things happened in that period of time. Vie, like all the other classes, entered high school as '‘green freshies.” Our chances for progress looked faint, hut by the end of the year we changed our minds. The idea of “eighth grade day” was carried out for the second time. Later we sponsored a mixer for the rest of the school and by the end of the year proved that we are no longer “green freshies.” During our sophomore year our pace slowed down. Many of the members were represented in baseball, basketball and various clubs. We had a great thrill of torturing the freshmen at a mixer. Our junior year was one of excitement. We gave our class plays in the high school. Much preparation and work was put on the prom, which was a great success. Prom King Truman Stelloh and his queen,‘Elizabeth Pischke led the grand march of the last prom in the old gym. Members of our class began to gain fame in clubs and sports. In the fall of 1941, twenty-seven people returned to complete their senior year. This year was really filled with new thrills and happenings. WE, the seniors, were the first class to present our class play on the new auditorium stage. It was a great success. Every member put forth some effort to again put out a perfect annual. We know we will graduate and are glad at the thought. On our faces are smiles, hut deep in our hearts we regret that we must leave {he school so dear to us. As we turn our backs to the doors which we so frequently entered, we try hard to keep back the choking sobs. Vie know we must now break our own trails through life. We leave, with our last goodby, and hope some day.to return as-welcomed visitors of the school we love the best. . CLASS ADVISORS Miss Verna JenSdn ....
