SENIOR CLASS HISTORY On September 2, 1941, 36 boys and 25 girls began their high school adventures at Win-Co-Hi. As usual we were known as the green freshr.enl All survived the initiation and knuckled down to school activities with real zest. We elected as our class officers the following: Tom Springer, President; Jean Day, Vice President; and Betty Rue Schwab, Secretary-Treasurer. When we began our Sophomore year we had lost William Sitton, Liman Sutton, Robert Wills, Frances Ryan, Virginia Reynolds, Virginia Cventings, Eleanor Cooner, Maurice Cooper, Jean King, Charles Seymore, Mae Ruth Stone, Clarence Williamson, and Fred Martin. During this year we added Charles Overton and Charles Whiteman to the class. Officers for this year were: Jean Day, President; Walter Wilkins, Vice President; and Eddie Kirkpatrick, Secretary-Treasurer. The big event our Sophomore year was a weiner roast enjoyed by the class and the faculty. Remember when Joayne Hinegardner tore the seat of her slacks and had to borrow one of the boy1 s sweaters to cover it up? Our Junior year we won our social standing in the school when we initated the freshmen. The highlight of the night occurred when Tom Springer, acting as surgeon, operated on Edwin Evrnt and then placed the heart in Maxine Gregory' a hands. Do you remember how Maxine screamed? During this year we sold magazines and won the Navy goat. The Junior-Senior banquet was quite a success, the thane being Pan-American. Remember how Joayne and Bill Milstead could Conga? The annual Junior play, Almost Eighteen was given by the Juniors and was directed by Miss Mapes. Those v io didn't return this year were Bert Evans, Robert Claywell, Jacqueline Frank, Eddie Kirkpatrick, Bernard McGuire, Francie McGuire, Leo Summers, Junior Wilcox, Ralph Byers, and Charles Whitmnan. We had one addition to the class this year—Betty Duncan. We elected as our officers: Agnes Ann O'Donnell, President; Betty Reu Schwab, Vice President; Deraid Baird, Secretary-Treasurer. During our Junior year we lost the followirg: Herchulee Elliott, Donald Putnam, Rollin Taylor, Francis Welsh, and Gwendolyn Wilcox. We gained Maxine Guinnane and Evelyn Evans. Now we are Seniore. We have gone through four years of high school and are ready to go out and make our own way throi jh life, but these days at Win-Co-Hi will always remain in the pages of our memories. This year we lost William Simmons and Betty Duncan, but Russell Dunn ag an, Darrell McGlaeeon, Hal Smith, and Jinroy Woodall were added to the class. Our class officers are: Agnes Ann O'Donnell, President; Jimmy Woodall, Vice President; and Dick Bums, Secretary-Treasurer. Through these four years the class has had Mrs. Hobbs, Mr. Palgier, Mrs. North and Mrs. Glossop as advisors. Mrs. Hobbs has remained with ue through these years but Mr. Falgier and Mrs. North were called to work elsewhere. Mrs. Glossop was chosen for our class whan die came here to teach. We take this opportunity to express our deep gratitude for the way in which they have helped us in our happy four years of high school.
