Class of ’29 Remembers Four Years at Brimfield High
A condensed history of Brimfield High School’s Class of 1929 recounts nineteen freshmen in 1925, nine boys and ten girls, with early bashfulness, initiations in Clark's woods, and several transfers. Leroy and Chester Bruninga joined as sophomores. Viola Harty led as president through graduation. The group notes growing confidence, a seniors’ reception, and the class play Tell It To Your Mother In Law. Gerald White joined their final year, keeping numbers even with the start. They reflect on hair turning gray for teachers and leaving with wisdom, though not without minor mischief and gum chewing.
