G ass gfzstory One sunny mormng rn the month of September 1946 a party of young people came wandering 1nto the portals of Whetstone School They were gorgeously arrayed and everythlng about them be spoke a happy and carefree exrstence Mrs Stone the frrst grade teacher gu1ded them 1nto her classroom Eight of our present day class were in that group Those eager first graders were Iudy Gumther, Sandra Fauser, Anna and Calvln Campbell Ella Kelly M1lton Patterson, Edd1e Snyder and Richard Cotsmire Mrs Kroft guided us through our second year and Mlss Munel Crall taught us when we en tered the

better than anyone else and d1d much to rel1eve us of the feehng of newness and strange surround lngs In the seventh grade we welcomed Larry Kocher to our class and Allen Bower jorned our group 1n the eighth grade September 1954 We had at last attalned the status of Freshmen True the upperclassmen tr1ed to show us how to behave, but many t1mes when detentron slips were passed out we were happy we d1dn't always follow their example We ll never forget our ln1t1at1on' Eddie Snyder sh1ver1ng on that cool October day arrayed ln a grass skrrt and a lei, dropplng hrs books to do the hula dance whenever a Sen1or commanded crawling up the stairs on our hands and knees at noon eatmg beans with a knrfe and the humihating experrence of wearing wide adheslve tape across our mouths during the evemng ceremomes so we could not protest when our halr was shampooed w1th raw egg and molasses We surv1ved and elected Rlchard Cotsmire our Pres1dent and Sandra Fauser our V1ce Pres1dent Iudy Gumther
