HAROLD BINKLEY A former member of Wayne Hi, left school to enter the armed services. He recently completed his high school course under the Veterans Re- habilitation Program. The seniors of 1951 are glad to welcome him as a member of their graduating class. Shame on you Turtle . Cautions . . .Grab him girls, he's happy . . Watch that flashlight, Jim . School days . . . One little, two little three little Seniors. enior Class History In September of 1947 thirty students assembled at Wayne Hi to begin their Fresh- man year. This was the beginning of their high school career. They elected officers as follows: President, LaDene Shaw, Vice Presi- dent, Charles Spencer, Secretary, Beth Pepple, Treasurer, Esther Spaulding, Student Council Member, Charles Hammer, and Re- porter, Ruth Wireman. The Freshman were represented in football, basketball, cheerlead- ing, and other school activities. After summer vacation twenty-five stu- dents returned to good old Wayne Hi, to begin their Sophomore year. Mr. Miller had a pretty hard time of it that year the was our home room teacher! because you know boys will be boys. That year the officers were as follows: President, Charles Hammer, Vice President, Jerome Fagan, Secretary, LaDene Shaw, Treasurer, Dick Barnes, Student Council Member, Charles Spencer, Reporter, Ruth Wireman, and we can't forget Beth Pepple, who was voted watch dog of our class that year. The Sophomores were also active that year in school activities. Again after summer vacation the new Juniors started the school year with twenty students enrolled in their class. This was a busy year for the Juniors, with the annual to put out, things to sell, and being the hos. at the Junior and Senior Banquet to the class of 1950. Mrs. McKibben was our adviser, and did a very good job of helping us over our difficulties. The Juniors worked hard but had a good time doing it. Dick Barnes was elected President, Charles Copeland, Vice President, Beth Pepple, Secretary, Shirley Minnich, Treasurer, Charles Hammer, Student Council Member, and LaDene Shaw, Reporter. The Juniors again appeared in quite a few activities. After a brief but pleasant summer vacation the Seniors of 1951 again gathered at Wayne Hi to commence their final year's work. There were now twenty-three members in the Senior class. If the Junior year was a busy one, the Senior year has been twice as busy. Mr. Hemphill has done a very good job advising our class, and we appreciate it immensely. The dignified Seniors chose for their class officers: President, Jim Moss, Vice President, LaDene Shaw, Secretary, Brooks Bush, Treasn urer, Esther Gilroy, Student Council Member, Beth Pepple, and Reporter, Shirley Minnich. The Senior Class has been quite popular in school activities this year, too. As we have said before, this year is a very busy one for us, with invitations to order, pictures, cabs and gowns, and the Senior Class play which will be held this spring. The Seniors are looking forward to their trip to Washington, D. C. We hope this History of the Class of 1951 will live in the hearts and minds of each one of us, and the students who have known us. Class Colors-Blue and Silver Class Flower-Red Carnation Class Motto-Forward Ever, Backward Never. by Ruth Dawson and Jack Barnes Cl ss Prop ecy After being on the planet of Venus for several years I decided to look up some old classmates. I boarded a Strato Cruise Airliner for Washington, D. C. As the plane was about to leave, a beautiful stcwardess told us to fasten our safety belts. I was so stunned I forgot to fasten my safety belt for the stewardess was none other than Ruth Wireman. As we were flying along' one of the passengers became airsick and the chief pilot was called back. 'l'he pilot turned out to be Happy Go Lucky jcronie Fagen. Jerome has settled quite a bit from his high school days as he has a wife and nine children to support. After the plane landed I proceeded to look up my old classmate, Dick Bames, who is a Senator from Ohio. I inquired about Dick and was told he was attending a session of Congress. So I decided to attend. Dick was waging a terrific battle against race prejudice. After visiting with Dick, I journeyed to Columbus, Ohio, to attend the football game. At the start of the game the Coach was introduced to the crowd. I was almost bowled over when Emerson Staup took a bow. He had just succeeded Woody Hayes. I boarded a train for Waynesfield. As I was riding along, I noticed a handsome Marine sitting across the aisle. I took a second look and discovered it was Bob Keith, who was now a fighting leatherneck. Bob told me that Jack Barnes had a job as dress designer for a New York Style Center. After Bob left the train I bought a newspaper and as I was scanning the news I came across the glaring headlines: Boyd Moore appointed State F. F. A. Supervisor . I lr-ft the train at Lima, Ohio and hailed a taxicab. The cab came roaring to a stop and I noticed a familiar figure driving. The driver was Nelson Bowsher. After paying my fare I decided to visit the school house. I entered the office and much to my surprise, I discovered Mr. Hupp was the new superintendent. Mr. Hupp told me that Mr. Bailey was a scientist at 'he atomic plant at Oak Ridge, Tennessee. As I was talking to Mr. Hupp, Mr. Wolfe walked into the office. He told me that the basketball team had won three straight state championships. They also told me that Mr. Hemphill was a Broadway stage producer and was doing very well for himself. Also I learned that Mrs. Newell and Mrs. McKibben had both retired. Mrs. Newell was living in Florida and Mrs. McKibben owned a large resort on Lake Winnipeg in Canada. Thev said that Mrs. Wissman is a great vocalist and leads her own band. As I left the office I saw LaDene Shaw leading the first graders to the gymnasium. LaDene said she en- joyed her work. By the actions of the children it looked as though she was doing a wonderful job. I walked down the hall to Room 7, the old Ag-room. I paused and listened before entering and the voice I heard seemed familiar. It was Charles Copeland, now the Ag. teacher at Wayne High. Charles could never give up the association with the F. F. A. Charles said the chapter was one of the best in the state. I noticed that there were six straight gold bars on the State Chap- ter Contest and eleven gold bars on the Parliamentary procedure plaque. Charles told me that Esther Gilroy had finally consented to be a farmer's wife and she and Gene Barnes have settled down on the lone prairie. I decided to go out to Edison Wreede's farm. Ed has 'urned the farm into one of the most modern dairy farms in the state. I left Wreedeis and went to Jim Line's to spend the night. Jim is the farm reporter for the Lima News. His job as the F. F. A. reporter proved very valuable. I learned from Jim that Charles Hammer was a car designer for General Motors. It seems that Chuck got disgusted with the design of the Plymouth and decided to design his own. Jim and -I decided 'to attend a movie. ,,, .1 - As we were walking through the lobby we-met our old friend, Earl Dawson. We asked Earl what he was doing. Earl promptly answered us by giving us two free passes to the show. Earl had risen to great fame as one of the state's better known theater managers. The show- ing was very thrilling and'exciting as it starred our classmate, Shirley Minnich. Shirley has been rated as the number one star in Hollywood. ' A As we were leaving the theater we noticed a fire several blocks down. We hustled right down to the fire, and saw a brave fireman climb seventeen stories high to rescue a little girl. After returning to the ground he collapsed. We were startled to find the 'fireman was Jim Bennett. Jim had achieved his boyhood ambition to become a fireman. Bennett was taken to the hos- pital so Jim Line and I went over to see how he was comin? along. Much to our amazement we found the head nurse was Beth Pepple. Beth told us she was happily married to Brooks Bush, who is an art student at Ohio Northern University. We went up to Bennf-tt's room and talked with him. He told us that Jim Moss was one of the most respected lawyers in Lima. In his snare time Moss heads the Lima Little Theater Move- mf-n'. As we were about to leave we ran into Ruth Dawson, who was a special nurse assigned to Jim Bennett. After so much fun and excitement Jim and I decided to return home. On the way we had a flat tire and had no tools to fix it with, so I went down to a farm house to secure some help. I knocked on the door and was verv much pleased and surprised when Shirley Newland stood before me. Shirlev and Dwight Gratz are married ani live on a beautiful farm close to Lima. Dwight helped fix the tire and we went on home. After meeting many classmates of 1951 I went to New Mexico to see a man about an expedition to Mars, but I hope to come down to earth, now and then.

Varsity Dickie Arthur, Fred Taylor, Dwight Gratz, Charles Spencer, John Swartz, Leonard Bertrand, Wilbur Painter, Gene Barnes, Brooks Bush, Emerson Staup, Coach Mr. Wolfe. The Blue and Gold basketball squad thrilled their faithful following with a surprisingly successful season, in which then were able to match quality with virtually every winn'nq team in the district. Ably led by Coac Ed Wolfe, the Tigers ended the season in tie with Minster and New Knoxville for secon'd place in the county league following the league leading Cridersville five. After a slow start, the Waynesfield five caught fire after the Christmas vacation, with only a loss to Cridersvllle marring a thrill-packed season climax. Among the wins were a coveted over- time win over Lima St. Rose and a one point victory over the eventual tourney winner, Minster. The season was climaxed in the county tourney when the Tigers met the Cridersville Rams for the third time during the year. Though beaten twice before by the Green and White and playing a team that at the time was rated among the top ten Class B squads in the state, the boys from Wayne High forgot all about reputations and promptly put on a show of high quality basketball that nearly provided one of the big upsets of the year. The Echo is proud to honor this bunch of basketeers as one of the school's better basketball aggregations.

This is a sure criterion of your ability to see the joys which are about you. A careful observation of your surroundings make of you a critic of good and bad. A smile from you when another succeeds is indicative of your pleasure in another's accomplishments. One may gain popularity, but the question is, How was the fame secured? It is the desire of all with Whom you come in contact, that you face the World honestly and honorably. Wealth will not be your measure of success, but how well you worked with your fellowmen for the good of all mankind. We wish you success, honor, and fastidiousness in all that is worth while. Mr. E.
