Class History Amidst the clamoring of the upperclassmen, OES sppes ten in the halls of Ashley High, in the Fall of 1950 a new group of “greenhorns”. Coming from all directions we assembled in the assembly. There were so many of us that more seats had to be added to the freshman part of the assembly. Our sponsor was Mr. Fee who had the job of starting us 49 scatterbrains on our way to learn the rules of “Old Ashley High . We had a class meeting and elected Glora Warner, president, Shelia Forrest as secretary and Shirley Metzger as historian. Betty Jo Parnell was reporter. It wasn't long until we lost some of our classmatese. In March, Sally Allen moved to iiichigan, Laurine Henderickson leit us, Donald Stomm could not finish the last semester because of sickness. In March, Kuth Bowerman came from Angola. November 28th we sponsored a skating party. On March 24th we had a pot-luck supper at the schoolhouse after which iir.e Parker took us to Auburn to a showe The sophomore year found us minus two boyse We had gained a new ones Danny Wright from Saleme By now we were all accustomed to lessons and studying so before long we choose John Shipe, class president; Van Smith, vice-president; Glora Warner, secretary; Shelia forrest, treasurer; Maryellyn Smith, class reporter, and Paul Everitts as our sponsor. On October ¢nd we picked out and ordered our class rings and received them on Lecember 18th. On Lecember 20th we had a Christmas exchange and attended the show at Angola. We must never forget our sincere gift to Miss uckles, limburger cheese which left the schoolhouse with such a good odor that we were told we could not have anymore parties at the scnool- house. On May 16th we had a party at Judith Shores after which we went on a hayride to attend the show “Iwo Weeks With Love at Waterlooe Under the guidance of John Shipe as president, Joyce Hecht, vice-president, Glora Warner as treasurer, Maryellyn Smith as class reporter, Shirley Metzger as class historian and Dolly Arney as sponsor we began our Junior year with determination that we were really’ going to work so we could have a four day class trip. elma Beard and Brian Hamman discontinued their schoolwork and Jewell Hall moved to Auburn. On December 13, 195] we had a Christmas Party at the town halle On March 25-26 Glora Warner went to Bloomington to a geometry contest. We had two bake sales and two paper drives. On April 19, 1952 we presented our class play “Handy Man which was very successful. Maryellyn Smith represented us at the music contest at Indianapolise We started on our longed-for trip on May 7th. The senior year opened with but 55 left. Joyce Hecht was elected president Maryellyn Smith, vice-president; Shirley Metzger, secretary; Judith Shore, treasurer; Shelia Forrest, reporter; von Kanaga and Phyllis Perkins, historians; Mr. Fredrick, sponsore We presented the play “Love Is In The Air“ which was a great success. Next on the agenda we attended a thrilling hockey game at the Coliseum. From then on we found ourselves ina turmoil of completing the annual. Finally there came the end of our school days-the trip, baccalaureate, and from all these activities we know that WORK WILL WIN WHEE WISHES WON'T . Class Prophecy One bright worning in the spring of '63 1 decided I'd liks to fina out what my olu high school classmates had been doing since our graauation ten years ago. So 1 jumped in my antique woael-T ana started on my tour. I began my trip at Chicago wheve 1 went to Marshall Fielus to buy my traveling wardrobe and who should be modeling the gowns but our own Carolyn Brand. She stiil lboked good in ner knit dress too! After 1 finished buying my clothes I still nau a couple hours till my car would be ready so I thought I would go to the Chicago Conservatory of susic to visit my ola friend and classmate, arlene brenneman, who teaches piano there. 1 hear she is scheduled to do a concert tour which will include Communit, Concert at Auburn, Indiana (Only eleven miles from our old school house.) 29 I then traveled to New York to visit our “would-be butter and egg man, xed Mavis, Wuo enued up as a wrestler! He's at wadison Squars Garden this week. What a physique! By this time my hair was looking a sight so I asked mrs. Thomas vewsy to tell me what she considered the best beauty salon in New York, ‘and without hesitation she referred me to Anita Clark's beauty salon on riftn Avenue. I1 went, and 1 must say my hair looked lovely for my visit to kaine and the Low Air Forces base where, as you know, the former Glora Warno2r is living witn her husband, sda eeaar tee tod nobert Se Hartman. We hau tea in tneir lovely house trailer. f then traveled uown the Atlantic Coast to Washington b.u. to visit. our shy guy of 1953, Charles Kessler who is now Senator Kesslsr of 1y63; he is strickly against ths filibustsring law, which is still trying to bs passed. As 1 entered his office who should greet me, but Lora Kneubuhler!$ I1t sesms she is employed there as senator Kessler's privats secretary. ' As I was passing tnrough Lelewars, I noticsd a hitch-hiker and stoppea to pick HtR upe It was Kuth bowerman, ali dressed up in her Wave uniform anu nzadea for the base aitzr a d-day pass in Washington ..C. I went on down to Georgia to visit Bonnie Wiler wio is there witn her husband, Tufty. They have a nice little family started ana seem very happy. from there I went on to Floriua for a little rest before journeying back west. I stopped at a little place called Days kesort™ in Miiami (vay sleeping only) anu was suprised to ses our own Jackie vays as the propristor who made an exception and allowsd me to stay all night. i aross early in the morning to get started on my way. Along in the aiternoon I became hungry and stopped at a little truck stop in the wilds of Louisanna, where I found Warianne ufeller: back of the counter. She married one of her stzady customers at the North und Truck stop in Watarloo and endau up in Louisanna} rrom thers, on my way to California I remembered something about somebody being in New mexico and sure snough, when I went tnrough, I saw Arlene Kester witn all her kids and her ola fiame, Jonalu Green, as a husband. She's putting her sewing ability to g ood use now} I finally got to California to board my ship that was to tak2 me to the Hawaiian Islands where 1 planned to visit Carol ucClellan who was there on a delayed honsymoon with her husband, or course. We shared old twirling experiances--sspecially witn izzy xeinoehl. She told me Kenny farker was stationeu there as ca,tain of the jet carrierse He's in the Navy, you know. dHarola Smith was there too, as a mechanic. Just as my boat was about to leave our regular captain became ill and haa to be replaced. bo you know who it was? admiral Lavid viiley$ ‘And Bob Bowman as his right hand man’ 4h, the life of a sajlor$}! By this time it was the last of (july ana I haa to be thinking about getting home so I decided to tly back in ordsr to have time to go to the rodso in Wyowing. rat Gramling surprised me’ by appearing in a stewardess uniform. We had fine buzz sessions all the way home. She said this woulda be her last flight because Lonnie had finally askeu her to marry him. I arrived in Wyoming just in time for the rodeo. The big star was “hero ioyer . 1 thought it sounded goou so I hurried in to my seat. The great “iisro finally appeared but it really wasn't a hero at all--it was just old Miike} I still wanted to buzz through Kansas to see Shsila, who is there with her airman husband. We had a good ‘ole jam session reminiscingabout all the times we had in th: office--NO@ Fred's--Glora's${ I heard that Bette Ann was in hi'mesota so 1 stopped to see her tooe It seems Ralph is playing with the Minneapolis Lakers since ikan retired, so of owurse Bette is there with him. Then all of a sudden I was in Fort Wayne--almost home! 1 wanted to go up town to get some school clothes. I discovered Theresa gllert and Carol xogers working as artists for Wolf and Dessauer. As I was passing the Coliseum, remembering when it was built, I decidsai to stop and look around. The Pistons were practicing for a big season Coming up and who was out there yelling instructions but big Don Kanaga, so 1 set down to watcn awhile. ‘Suddenly I realized I wasn't alone. I looked around and sure enough! There was Judy, STILL yelling her lungs out at basketball games. When I looked at my watch 1 noticed it was getting late and 1 haa to hurry home} I guess 1 tried to hurry too fast because I tripped and fell down the ramp. They thought I had broken my ankle so I was taken to the Lutheran jiospital in Fort Wayne 30 —— — in an ambulance driven by John Hartman! When I finally got there (I thought I was never going to make it!) 1 found Waryellyn Smith and Joyce Hecht waiting to assist. They're both registered murgae now. The doctors said it was only a sprain so ne taped it and my ankle was as good as newe I finally arrived at home just in tims to get things around for school. September 5th rolled around and it found me at Asi:uley High School again, as a faculty memb3sr this tims. The fact is tne whole faculty body had been changed. Jean Brand is Home sconomics teacher; thyllis rerkins is commercial arts teacner; John Shipe is coaching and teaching mathmatics; Shirley netzger is neud aietition for our cafetaria, and I of course, was teaching physica. education ana music. 1 was certainly surprised to see all tne kids and 1 tola them of all my experiences and all the othor classmatss I hau seen. Then somebody said, “kay Stahl! What ever happened to him? Jean entormed us that he and his wife had a church in ‘Cincinnati and he was preachingt So that solved all the questions about what the Class of '53 was doing in '63. Class Will We, the class of 1953 of Ashley, Indiana, being of sound mind, even after twelve years of school, in order that the remaining classes will recognize our superiority and importance feel it our supreme and sacred duty to bequeath our talents and most valuable properities to our unfortunate schoolmates, who we feel sure will not be able to survive without them. To the faculty we will our good nature and pleasant smiles, also our ability os continual griping. To the Juniors we will that rare gift, called Senior privileges, with the under- standing that they are not to be handled carelessly, tossed about, or abused. To the Sophomores we will our text books which have all the answers written in them--here's hoping they are right. To the Freshmen we will our long lost love for our studies if you can find it. To the Janitor we will our old torn up love letters and cuds of gum we have thrown in the wastebasket or have left in various places. I, Ruth Bowerman, will my ability to be devilish and get away with it to Davey Hamman. I, Bob Bowman, will my ability to play basketball to Jerry Parnell. I, Carolyn Brand, will my loud and boisterous ways to quiet Sally Mergy. I, Jean Brand, will my worn out horn to anyone who has the ability to blow it. I, Marlene Brenneman, will my music ability to Ark Rinehart. I, Jackie Days, will my fancy skating ability to Pat Walker. I, David Dilley, will to Floyd Schwartzengraber the ability to get along with all the women and not to fool with just one. I, Theresa Ellert, will my love of Ft. Wayne to Carol Leas who is seen more at Auburn. I, Sheila Forrest, will my ability to be satisfied staying home nights to Myrna McClellan.

The third day we started out by going to the Mark Twain Cave where we saw and heard inter- esting sights. From here we went to the Mark Twain lhmseum where he lived as a small boy.
