Class History of 1951 Thirty-five frightened, but eager pupils entered Willshire Public School on September ll, 1939 to begin learning readin', writin', and 'rithmetic. Miss Beatrice Neiferd was on hand to greet us in our first experiences in school. Miss Edna Eichar was our teacher during our second and third grades, and with her help we soon became fourth graders with Mrs. Esther Dellinger as teacher. We didn't find this grade too difficult, so our next step up the ladder was the fifth grade with Mrs. Edith Bowen. During our sixth grade we had Mrs. Mildred Fisher and Mr. Sipe for the seventh. The eighth grade and we find ourselves the lucky students of a new teacher in our school. His name was Mr. Robert Lucas. This year went fast and we find graduation night here. We all felt proud as we got our diplomas that made us a part of the good old high school when we started our next term. Greenies, at last! and already the Seniors were planning what to do to us when initiation day came. Everyone had to admit that all the boys made very beautiful pin up girls in their shorts and halters, high heeled shoes and carry- ing a baby doll. The girls didn't look quite as pretty in flannel nightgowns, hair in rags, and a black eye , but the Seniors made all this up that night with a nice. party with the class as honored guests. During our Freshman year we had Miss Blankman for our class sponsor. Mrs. Byers was our sponsor during our Sophomore year. We had a pan- cake supper, and a bake sale. Our Sophomore year went fast and we are now Juniors. This was one of our best years. We picked our class rings this year. Our class play. Good- bye Hollywood, bake sale, selling pencils with basketball schedules, and con- cessions at the Junior High Basketball Tournament, contributed to build our treasury. Our Junior-Senior Reception was held in the Auditorium, May 13. All the class enjoyed fixing the gyrn with crepe paper in the Seniors class colors Everyone also agreed that the gym, looked very nice, and that they had a wonder- ful tirne. 'We had Mr. Cowan as our able sponsor this year. This was it! At last we became Seniors. Our first day at school, we re- ceived our class rings, which everyone liked very well. This year the tables were turned and we were deciding the Freshmen's fate for initiation day. We believe we had more fun than the Freshmen. Mr. Cowan was our sponsor again this year. We decided to go to Washington, D. C. for our trip. We want to thank Mr. Cowan for the wonderful help he has given us to make our Senior year, one we won't forget for a long time to come. 19
