O17 file Back in 1941 a storm arose. bringing in the Class of SS, At that time we thought it would be heavenly to be a Senior. but now that the big year has come l think we all regret saying such 21 thing. Let us all relax and think back about twelve years ago to all those wonderful memories we will cherish forever and ever. As the storm grew worse our class began to grow a little large. Our first few years of school kept us all pretty busy getting accustomed to our classmates. home- work. and teachers. By the time we were in the third grade. we were accustomed to school and all its connections.

By that time Miss Nc- Calmont was glad to see the party break up. Then came the time when we graduated from junior High to High School. As freshmen, we enjoyed many activities such as scluare dancing. twirp dancing. flirting, and dating. The latter was something new and wonderful to us younguns. We then had the experience of electing our class officers. The first few days of school were very exciting because we had a new homeroom teacher, Mr. Byler. ln- cidently he hasnt been able to get rid of us since then.
