Class History

Remember when we were Freshies 'way back in 1936, starting our high school career/ Wasn't it fun? Such a scramble for lockers the first elected Bill Truesdell as President of a bunch of 40 wild Apachees: The next year we settled down and were "very model" students. HoPert(aZ) Grimes found himself in the honorary position of president. Many spreads and parties were enjoyed and, as a result, our treasury sank 'way out of sight. Junior year-and we were off again. Paul Doty was our worthy president and we started out the year by ordering our class rings. Our class play uThe Red-Headed Stepchild," was a huge success, and our annual J-Hop rxrthe endors was a Four Star Hit with music by Ernie Hayden, "The Little Maestro." "The Senior year is the most exciting!" How true! We swung into the grand finale, out for all the fun we could get in our last lap of High Bill Truesdell served his second term as president. On November 29th we scored another dramatic hit with "Comm' Thru The Rye." Then began our money-making campaign, chicken-pie supper, baked goods sale, rummage sale, paper pick-ups, popcorn stand, concessions at the F.F.A. Fair, dances, etc.--all served to boost our treasury higher and higher. To cap the climax the Juniors presented a superb J-Hop in our honor, and two days later we sailed away on a cruise of the Great Lakes for four whole days: Back again we plunged into Graduation preparations. To bring all to a happy ending we enjoyed a schoolpicnic, Alumni Banquet and Alumni Dance on June 6th. We are now out to face the world, a bit sad at the thought of leaving but indeed hapPy for all the good times U.C.H.S. has given us. Five of us started the first grade together, Jean Standiford, Kathleen Danberry, Bill Truesdell, and Jim Snow. Now thirty of us stand on the threshold of life. We hope that the Juniors will carry on bigger and better than ever. Our class motto is "Today we folloO, tomorrow we lead" should be an ideal inspiration to the whole class. MAROON AND GREY 9

Our first attempt at were as follows: Betty Beeman-President, Douglas Hobday-Vice-President, Lucille French-Secretary, Mary Brandt-Treasurer. Many of our boys became member of the football and basketball teams. There was hard struggling sometimes for the boys to keep eligible. Our Sophomore year found us a little more accustomed to High School life. We were better organized and our officers were as follows: Olin ident, Howard Wells-Vice-President, Thelma Collins-Secretary, Treasurer. The Union City High School Band was formed and added a tivity for the members of our class. 1940 found us headed toward another exciting year. We elected our class officers which were Mary Bell-President, Mary Margaret Henderson- ident, Thelma Collins-Secretary, Mary Brandt-Treasurer. Our class play was a grand triumph. We presented the three act comedy 'Mama's Baby Boy.' In closing our Junior year we can say we feel confident that live up to the standards which the Senior Class have left behind with the help of so many active members of the athletic, musical and zations. 14 MAROON AND GREY

SOPHOMORE HISTORY

Yes sireel We're Sophomores, We Sophomores had a party, With two more months to go. We had a skating ball. We'll make the grade somehow, We went to Battle Creek, Although it's awfully slow. And fun was had by all.

We elect our class officers, New students entered our class, With the very greatest of care. This past and present year. For to establish our classroom, They made a great addition, Is no little affair. And we're glad they're here.

Charles George is President, Now this is the end, For his ability to lead. Our class history I've told. Mary Knauss is Secretary, In two years we'll be Seniors, With them we should succeed. And walk the "gang-plank" bold.

With a nucleus of nine Seniors who had played on the same team for four years gave the Maroons a good start for 1940. The regular team consisted of William Truesdell and Edwin Watkins at the Ends, Paul Doty ard Parks at the Tackles, Robert Grimes and Linzel Hill at the Guards, Wells at Center, Leroy Truesdell at Right Halfback, James Snow erback, Jack Reed at Left Halfback and Olin Jones at Fullback. The first game with Reading was a nip-and-tuck affair with showing much offensive drive and the score ended in a tie. In the second game with Homer the Maroons made several long runs to win the game 21 to 7. The third game was with the Bronson Champions and we tied them with the score ending 7 to 7. The fourth game was with Litchfield. Red and White had scored in the opening minutes, the Maroons came back strong to push over two touchdowns and register a safety. The was one of the most exciting of the season with William ing a pass the last play of the game to win 13 to 12. The annual game with Athens was a thriller to the end with Athens winning 7 to O. The sixth game was with Quincy and they won in the last minute of game by the score of 7 to O.

This year's basketball team found themselves with only one veteran from last year's quintet. This made it necessary to rebuild a new quently the team lost a big share of it games. However it did improve as the season progressed and toward the latter part of the year made a very good showing. James Snow was the only member to return from last year's team and did remarkably well to lead the team in scoring honors. Howard Wells, a substitute center from last year, played the pivot position and with the experience that he gained this year should be a big cog in next year's team. Jack Reed, the other Senior, played guard and though he capped for height did well in protecting the home basket. Raymond Grimes and Linzel Hill shared the other forward position and both boys showed up well after a few games experience. Richard Parks, a sophomore, played the other guard most of the time and "Dick's" height and aggressiveness will prove most valuable to him next year. The second team was made up mostly of freshman. Eirht turned out for the team and though they had never played together before, did very well in winning a third of their games. John Schwendener and Robert, Brooks along with Neil Moen and Richard Ashdown played the forwards. Eugene Hedrick and Ruseel Brandt along with Charles George and Duaneturgartheld down the guard positions. Richard Grimes played center. The Little "C" Tournament was held in Union City this season and proved a big success both for the conference and the Athletic Association. The Tournament winner was Jonesville.

There were good tim,,7 hrd at practice and the games scheduled were played rith an excellent show of good sportmanship. They hr ,4 a very broad streak of bad luck, however, and lost all of their gamEs.

This year they lose four girls throu7h rraduation, Jean Standiford, a good forward who has annexed a lot of bas!:ets for the 1:aroon and Grey, Carolyn Casper, a fomtard; Vera Harper, a ruard; and Frances Krimnel, a guard.

With the loss of only three players from last years team and ance of several freshmen to fill in these gaps promises to give a hustling nine for 1941. 40 aspirants appeared for practice in ium at the start of the year but this number was cut to 25 with the opening game at Sherwood. Parks and Rosenberry will take over the pitching duties for the Maroons, with either Hedrick or Wells handling, the the catching ass1,7nments. Snow, a veteran of four years experience, will hold down first base ord as his understudy. Brandt looks the best at second base with Moen or Burvart as second choice. Ray Grimes has the "hot corner" cinched nnd Jones is by far the best at shortstop. In the outfield there is a wealth erial with Baker, Loser and Reed the pick.
