D0 YOU REMEMBER ??? In the fall of 1939, the Frazier School was opened. He started our Freshman year at that time, attending Frazier because the High School building was too small and crowded. The Japanese assault on Pearl Harbor stunned us at Brentwood High, as well as the rest of the nation, on December 7, 1941. There was gas rationing, shoe rationing, tire rationing, food shortages and 'meatless Tuesday". Brentwood High School was a very small structure in 1940 but a larger Gym replaced the old one that year. By the fall of 1944 the first addition to the original school building was completed The south wing contained eight classrooms and there was a lunch room in the basement. Our Junior-Senior Prom was held at Van Horn's Farm on Litzsinger Road. (Do you know it's now a church?) Elaine Peterson was the From Queen and Tom Buder was her escort. Class Presidents were Elaine Peterson for the girls and LeRoy Stanford for the boys.

(Before Computers) We were before the pill and the population explosion. We were before television and before penicillin, polio shots, antibiotics, and frisbees. Also, we were before frozen foods, nylons, dacron, Xerox, and Kinsey. In addition, we were before radar, sonar, fluorescent and lasar lights, credit cards and ball point pens. For us, time-sharing meant togetherness not computers or vacation spots; a chip meant a piece of wood; hardware meant hardware and software wasn’t even a word!! We were before Batman, Rudolf the Red Nose Reindeer and Snoopy. Also, before DDT and vitamin pills, disposable diapers, Scotch tape and M&M's. When we were in school, Pizzas, Cheerios, frozen orange juice, instant coffee and McDonalds were unheard of. We thought fast food was what you ate during Lent. We were before FM radio, tape recorders, electric typewriters, word processors, computers, electronic music and disco dancing. Almost no one flew across the country and trans-Atlantic flight belonged to Charles Lindberg and Amelia Earhart. We were before Israel, and the United Nations; before Pakistan, Indonesia, Iceland, the Philippines, and many other new nations were independent countries. He were before pantyhose and drip dry clothes. Also, before ice makers and dish washers, clothes dryers freezers and electric blankets. Before Hawaii and Alaska became states. we were before yogurt, Ann Landers, plastics hair dryers the 40 hour week and minimum wage. We got married first and then lived together How quaint! We were before coin vending machines, jet planes, helicopters and interstate highways. In our day cigarette smoking was fashionable; grass was mowed, coke was something you drank and a pot was something in which you cooked. In our time there were five-and-ten cent stores where YOU C°“ld buy things for five and ten cents. For just one nickel you C0uld ride the bus or make a phone call, buy a Coke or buy a stamP U0 mail a letter and get two cents change. If anyone in those days had asked us to explain CIA, NATO, UFO, NFL, JFK, ERA or IUD we would have said alphabet soup. We were not before the difference in the sexes was discovered but before sex changes. We just made do with what we had! AND S0 IT WAS IN 1943!
