.IUNIUHS Class History August 31, 1944, sixty-five green freshies entered Bingy High for the first time. As we launched out upon our high school career, we looked forward to four years of study, fun and cherished friendships. Nancy Haupt, Jack Pugh, Joan Zenor, and Bernard Bartlett were our class officers, and Miss Childs, our class sponsor. During the year several parties were enjoyed. Although we admit we were very green at first, we soon took our place among the upper classmen. Our Sophomore year brought new pleasures. Miss Overpeck was our class sponsor. Marty Byers, Bernard Bartlett, Dick Stump, and Eileen Lanie were our class executives. We enjoyed many social activ- ities, such as-GIider's Club, Athletic Association, class parties and in- formal get-togethers in the homes of various members of the class. Guess what '?-we're Juniors! No longer underclassmen. At our first class meeting of the year, Dick Stump, Jean Pugh, Phyllis McLain, and Joan Zenor received the votes. Miss -Bierly is helping us on our way. Preparations for the play began the second semester. Our class is very active in Band, Glee Club, Athletic Association and Glider's Club. Many of our boys are on the basketball team. The three cheer leaders also were elected from the Junior class. We concluded our year with the J unior-Senior Prom. Q 'tegg23- ma. Page Twenty-two
