....... WHITONIAN ...... FRESHMAN CLASS On September ll, 1934, twenty-five Freshies Cas green as they make 'emb entered Whitehouse High School. Mr. Raymond Daniels became our class advisor and was burdened with the task of gently guiding us through our first year of higher learning. we were pleasantly surprised to find that we now had Dorothy and Alfred Meyer in our midst, in ad- dition to the twenty-three members who had survived the final examin- ations of the eighth grade. Later in the year we gained another member, and lost two following that: so we finished the year with a membership of twenty-four. Soon after the beginning of school, we held our first class meeting and elected the following officers for the year: President Phyllis Montrie Vice President Horace Allion SecretaryeTreasurer Willard Weber Later in the year, we chose cherry red and white for our class colors, and the red and white oarnation as our class flower. In order that we all become acquainted with our new members, and renew our acquaintance with the remaining members of our class, we held a weiner roast at the Waterville picnic grounds on the evening of Sep- tember 26. By bribing Mr. Daniel's sister we found that his birthday was on December third, so we planned a surprise party for him at the school. He surely was surprised. we presented him with a pair of gloves so that he would have warm hands as well as a warm heart. In looking ahead toward the end of the year, we foresaw the need of funds for indoor balls, bats, and other articles we might need. About this time along came Mr. Neil Huntzinger, a representative of the Crow- ell Publishing Company. It didn't take us long to accept his propo- sition, giving us fifty per cent of all the money we collected in a mag- azine subscription campaign. In all we sold enough to earn for the class a net profit of 3l7.l8. This was regarded as a service to the people of Whitehouse and vicinity by encouraging the buying and reading of good magazines, in addition to proving the fact that we, the Fresh- men, could earn money for ourselves in this manner. At the end of the contest, the losing side gave a party in honor of the winning side, who furnished the entertainment. It was evident at this party that many of us had made changes for the better during the year. On April ll, seven Freshmen, along with scholars from other grades in high school, journeyed to Waterville on the school bus to compete in a scholarship contest. With many qualms we are now looking forward to those nerve-wrecking final examinations which are fatal to so many, but we have hope that at least a few of us will weather the storm. In glancing back over the past year we feel that it has been a suc- cessful one for the Freshman Class, for we have been well represented in the Glee Club, Hi-Light staff, Annual staff, and various other school activities. So, as this year comes to a close, I am sure that the maj- ority of the Freshmen are better and wiser members of society than they were last September. Jeanne Bradley .............31-----.

,.,,,., WHITONIAN ....... SOPHOMORE CLASS After suffering the hardships of Freshmen, the class of '37 started out its second year of high school with a Nbangn, having as class ad- visor Mr. W. E. Thomas, the coach of athletics. At the beginning of the year there were thirty-four members in the class. This was later re- duced to thirty-one when three members moved away to attend other schools. The class elected the following officers: President Robert Barnett Vice President Allen Allion Secretary Evelyn Studer , Treasurer I Robert Green The class hoped that these officers would fill their positions well and found as the school year went on that they had no reason to regret their choice. The class held their first party near Maumee. This party, which was a weiner roast, was thoroughly enjoyed and the class hoped to have another one like it. During the year they had two other parties outside the school, one of which was for Bertha Longenecker, who moved to Penn- sylvania.. Just before Christmas vacation the class presented a program to the high school students. This program, which was enjoyed by all, showed the ability of the class as actors and actresses. In athletics the class was well represented. In football six soph- omore boys made the varsity team. In basketball seven boys were on the first and second teams. The boys are also taking an interest in base- ball and track. The girls were well represented on the soccer, basket- ball, softball, and other athletic teams of the G. A. A. Three girls received letters for taking part in all sports. Besides being prominent in athletics the class took active part in the Glee Club, the school paper, and in student programs. The Sopho- mores placed seven members on the scholarship team. The class also took a trip to the Art Museum in Toledo on February 21. The purpose of going was to see a picture named nThe Human Adven- turen. This feature showed modern expeditions digging up villages, buildings, and tools of ancient civilizations and also translating in- scriptions that were on the buildings. By accident, the class was con- ducted on a tour of a small portion of the museum by a guide, and all were surprised at the skillful workmanship that was displayed in some of the glassware, mummy cases, and other art objects which they examined at the museum. Everyone enjoyed the trip and expressed a desire to go back again. As a history project, the historical movie NClive of Indian was sponsored by the class. The main purpose of sponsoring the show was to increase the funds in the class treasury. The class earned 3l5.00, NBobn Barnett, Chester Strayer, and Evelyn Studer winning prizes for selling the most tickets. The class hopes to prove in their Junior and Senior years that they have the ability and the ambition to make themselves one of the best classes of Whitehouse High School. Robert Green sz
