Senior history Four years ago the class of 1951 en- tered high school and was initiated in the usual manner by the sophomores. These twenty-three freshmen elected Bernice Rupp as their president, Roger Gilson as vice- president, and Sarah Jane Robinson as sec- retary-treasurer. Mr. Ray sponsored the class. As a project, the home economics girls sold sandwiches. They used the pro- fits to pay for more than half of the com- bination dishwasher-disposal and electric mixer purchased for use in the home eco- nomics department. Sarah Jane Robinson was president during the sophomore year. Marilyn Gearig was vice-president, and Shirley Grime,sec- retary-treasurer. Mr. Ray again sponsored the class. As an English project, t h e class gave the play WEvening Clothesn under the direction of Miss Wyse. All of the class was in the play. Margie Burkholder,Lester King, Sarah Jane Robinson, Roger Gilson, Anna Nofziger, and Bernice Rupp had the leading parts. As president for the junior year, the class chose Lester King. The vice-presi- dent was Margie Burkholder, and the secre- tary-treasurer was Anna Nofziger. Miss Hostetler sponsored the class. One of the high spots in the year was the production of the play nBrother Goosen on April 20 and 21. Anna Nofziger and Roger Gilson played the leading roles. The play was directed by Mr. Ray. The junior-senior trip to Columbus took place the latter part of Apr i l. Several institutions and radio and televi- sion studios were visited. On May 6, the class gave a banquet for the seniors and faculty members. The banquet was built around a southern theme. One third of the junior year was spent selling sandwiches, while candy was sold the entire year. Lester King was elected president for the senior year. Sarah Jane Robinson was vice-president, and Anna Nofziger was sec- retary-treasurer. Sarah Jane Robi n s o n served as nresident of the Student Council the p a s t year. Lester King was vice- president and Bernice Rupp was secretary. Early in the fall, the seniors gave their class play, WFor Love and Money.n S a r a h Jane Robinson and Roger Gilson played the leading roles. Because of the lack of boys,John Rychener and Wesley Wyse of the junior class had parts in the play. The production was given in the Wauseon Memorial Auditorium because of the building project at Pettisville School, which occupied the entire year. Bernice Rupp, Anna Nofziger, Sarah Jane Robinson, and Richard Gautsche took the senior scholarship tests in Wauseon. As a result of these tests. Bernice Rupp placed fourth in the county, Anna Nofziger was fifth,and Sarah Jane Robinson received honorable mention. Because of the size of t h e junior class, the practice of an annual junior- senior trip was dropped. Instead, a sen- ior trip was taken. Several institutions in Columbus were visited, and a tour of the Ohio State As editor chose Bernice sociate editor ness manager. of writing the der Fern Moll copy was done Jane Robinson University campus was made. of the nLariatN the class Rupp. Lester King was as- and Richard Gautsche, busi- Anna Nofziger was in charge copy and the typing was un- The job of mounting the by Marilyn Gearig.

The class scholastic honors w e r e awarded to Bernice Rupp and Anna Nofziger. Bernice was valedictorian and Anna was salutatorian. All of the graduation exercises were held at the Memorial Auditorium in Wause- on. The baccalaureate service was held May 20. The sermon was given by Rev. Bertsche of the Archbold Evangelical Men- nonite Church. May 22 was the date of the commencement exercises, at which Dr. Carl Kreider, acting president of Goshen Col- lege, Goshen, Indiana, spoke o n nEarth- quakes.N The last event the seniors took part in was class night, May 2b. A short playlet and the valedictory and salutatory addresses were given then. The coveted citizenship award for the best school citizen was given to Sarah Jane Robinson, as a result of voting by the faculty and class presidents. The Babe Ruth sportsmanship awards, again pre- sented this year, were given to Sarah Jane Robinson and R o g e r Gilson by vote of grades seven through twelve.
