As eighth graders we entered the sacred portals of Willard High School eager to learn and become successful in life. To be our guides we selected Roger Smith, president, Donna Kennard, vice president, Paul Hill, secretary-treasurer, and john Wallace, social chairman. Miss Margaret Vida was chosen as our advisor. We sponsored a dance and held a bake sale that year. In search of our treasures of knowledge we moved up another notch to the ninth grade. Roger Smith was again chosen as president, along with him as assistants were Alice Acton, Bill Steinmetz, and Leroy Sayre. Mr. Harry Duffy was the advisor. Many of us believed in Aladdin's lamp bringing luck when they made choir and the boy's made the team in various sports. The highlight of the year occurred when our one-act play Sparkin' won a S1000 prize. As we began our sophomore year we were more into the swing of high school life. The boys were initiated into Hi-Y and the girls into La Clef d'Or. We added a bit of gold to the treasury by sponsoring football and bas- ketball dances, holding a bake sale, and stag- ing a one-act play The Perfect Gentlemen . john Wallace was chosen as captain of the class that year. His staff included Mary Lee Vogel, Donna Kennard, and Alice Lydy, with Miss Maryann Dinkel advising. Next came the busiest year of all--we were juniors! Leroy Sayre headed the group with Mary Fields, judy Watson, and Alice Lydy serving under him. Miss Mary Hocken- bury was selected to help steer the course. Our treasury increased greatly through selling popcorn balls and candy, sponsoring bake sales and dances, collecting dues, and presenting the annual event, the junior play, Best Foot Forward , a three-act comedy of college life, directed by Miss Virginia Bau- man. One of our biggest thrills of high school life was on December 22, i950-when our class rings arrived. We truly felt like Kings and Queens wearing our gold rings with the crest mounted on white gold. lt was the first time the initials of the owner were on the outside! ln March a one-act play Not Tonight helped our growing treasury a bit. Silver and green were selected as our class colors, the yellow rose as our flower, and The best preparation for the future is the present well seen to was chosen as our motto. The biggest event of the year was the junior-senior prom in which we all spent an enjoyable Evening in Paris . Shops and scenes of Paris including the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe made up the decorations. A running fountain in a park completed the setting and provided an ideal place for the crowning of the queen, joyce Wiers. She led the grand march with Prince Charming, Robert Bohn. Opening up our long awaited senior year with a bang, judy Watson, Mary Lee Vogel, john Rosso, and jack Gordon, were selected to reign over the i952 Annual Staff. Arabian Nights was chosen as the theme of our lOO page Chief. Leroy was elected for a second term as president of the class of l952. judy Watson, Mary Lee Vogel, and jack Gordon were elected as his assistants. Miss Hocken- bury was again the advisor. To earn money for our senior trip we spon- sored the annual senior hayride, dances, and held bake sales. We also sold candy, sweaters, pencils, fruit cakes, soap, and vanilla. Alice Acton was selected pigskin queen by the members of the football squad, and reigned over the Crestline-Willard game along with her court. One of the highlights of our otherwise not too successful sports season was Bill Stein- metz's being placed on the district NOL hon- orary teams. To climax our high school life we marched across the platform and received our long awaited diplomas. Our last phase of school life was our trip to New York City. We had looked forward to this adventure all through the years at W.H.S. Thus ended our rich, full life at Wil- lard High School!
