LOUISE HIERONYMUS AND MR. HENRY CORRIE 'DetUcatcoit The senior class is pleased to dedicate the 1956 Wildcat to Mrs. Louise Hieronymus and Mr. Henry Corrie who each gave twenty-five years of service to Winchester High School. Both were capable teachers. Mrs. Hieronymus was assistant principal and dean of girls. As head of the Commercial Department, she helped many students to begin their life work and to find employment after their school days. She was the organizer and adviser of the Commercial Club. Mr.Corrie, who taught agriculture, was the sponsor of the F. F. A. He was interested in the boy's farm projects and was a loyal sport enthusiast, serving as announcer at the many football games. We appreciate their kindness and the guidance which they gave the students during the years they were here. We were sorry to see them leave Win-Co-Hi but are glad that they still are engaged in school work. 3 SEATED, left to right: B.F. Green, Harold Morris, Dr. Wallace MacMullen, W. A.

Settlor (?Cci44, Something new, something blue- --September of 1952 found ninety-four freshmen quiet new but not so blue--just puzzled. It did not take long to solve the puzzle despite the pajamas, limburger cheese, pony tails, and ribbons worn for initiation. Soon the group was well on its way to a very active and successful four years of high school. The officers for the green year were Don Fox, president, Jackie McGlasson, vice-president, and Bill Drummond, secretary-treasurer. The advisers were Mr. and Mrs. Springer. In the second or Silly Sophomore year, as it is better known, the class participated in the many events of the year. The members began to take part in band, sports, clubs, and the other activities of the school. The junior year was the most active one. Activities began with the magazine sales which amounted to $ 1565. It wasn't long before class rings were selected. The highlight of the year was the junior-senior prom which was financed by the magazine sales. Mr. and Mrs. Springer, the advisers, helped a great deal on the theme, How Deep is the Ocean? Under the direction of Mrs. Glossop, the class play, Girl Shy, was a great success. Officers for the year were president, Gehrig Robinson, vice-president, Carole Lashmett, secretary, Jackie Barber, and treasurer, Hazel Evans. Linda Peters and Jim Wade were elected for the Student Council. The last year Miss Priest was annual adviser. Mr. and Mrs. Springer continued as class advisers with the assistance of Mrs. Glossop. This year the class elected Harold Brown, president, Eddie Young, vice-president, Arlene Little, secretary, and Richard Miller, treasurer. Robertine Hoots and Jim Wade were senior members of the Student Council. Baccalaureate, Class Night, and Commencement brought to a close the record of the class of 1956. 20 lyjnclerc t er cl ci Admen Beware. Do Not Feed the Animal! Lover, When You're Near Me!
