Class History
The impressive class of 1940 started in its humble beginnings with only three of its now twenty-four members, namely, Peg Voorhees of the enormous questioning eyes, bouncing Sue Ramsey, and round and fat Bobbie Smith. They played con tentedly through the Kindergarten and were joined happily in the first grade by Susy Long, who was to become the eternal class treasurer, and Phebe Stevens with the Vitamin A hair. The five of us gained rapidly in knowledge. In the seventh grade along came Nancy Rausch, destined to be at the head of everything. As we made the break from the Elementary to the awe-inspiring Academic, the class was enlarged by a noisy bunch, Shirley Mulford, Jean Barlow, Anita Elmes, Dickie Sumner, who won all the athletic honors, but wc found we never were to have any peace again. Aimee Lacombe of the “Golden Locks” was another welcome addition that year. Second Academic, and at last we were grown up! Nancy Cooper, Bar bara Coleman, Jean Haydock joined us, and Ginny Coerr came up from the Sunny South and impressed us with her accent. Dot Linke and Patty Rentsler augmented our Sophomore year and soon proved their debating ability.
Our Junior year we were so popular that five more girls, Jessie Nunnally, Karla Yepsen, Betty Thomas, Betsy Royal, and that dynamo of energy Ruthie Fin- ninger, came to raise our scholastic standard.
1940 — Hail! To the Mighty Senior Class. We were proud to welcome the winsome B. L. Daubenspeck to complete our number and make us one of the largest and best classes ever to be graduated from the Hartridge School.
B. S. and S. R., '40.
