QUR TOW il 5-QX4 OUR TOWN Attica was laid out in 1825, the first plat being filed by Dan Stump. The original plat extended from the corner of Brady and Washington streets west on the latter to the river front, thence north to Perry Streetg thence east to the alley running west of the Revere House, thence south on a direct line to the place of beginning. It was primarily a river front town, but shortly after 1825 it enjoyed a boom in manufacturing. The Wabash and Erie Canal was constructed to Attica and had much to do with Attica's rapid growth. The Wabash Railroad constructed through Attica in 1857 brought Attica out of a standstill which had begun ten years earlier following the boom. Attica was first incorporated as a town at the June session of the Board of Com- missioners, 1849, and on June 25, the qualified voters assembled and elected the first Board of Trustees. The city obtained its charter in 1866 and on the third Monday in June of that year the first election was held. The industries of OUR TOWN have grown and spread throughout the years and to- day it is largely an industrial city. As OUR TOWN has advanced and will continue to advance, so the youth of Attica High will advance, holding not only cherished nuemories of their wonderful school and activities, but also looking forward with great expectation and high hopes for their part in OUR TOWN. We, the Crimson Staff of 1950, take great pleasure in dedicating this Crimson to Mrs. McKinney, who has devoted much of her time in developing an efficient commercial department and making this yearbook a success. ADMINISTRATION The Board of Education has effectively carried out another successful school year. Through their wisdom and good judgment they have provided many facilities for our education, culture, and recreation. We sincerely thank them for the untiring effort they have put forth for our educational benefit. Superintendent G. E. Ebbertt, a capable and energetic personality, has been more than superintendent to the students of A. H. S. He has been our friend to whom we could look for advice and help, whether on problems regarding ourselves or some school activity. Principal Kenneth C. Shafer has shown his devotion to youth and interest in activi- ty in his success in leading us through another year. OUR TOWN is indeed fortunate in having an Administration so well qualified for the position which it holds. S U P E G. E. Ebbem Superintendent ' Principal A. B., Indiana Central A. B., Oakland M.

RICHARDSON our friend and senior classmate who tragically left us on September 19, 1949. The good one does in a lifetime is not measured by the number of years that he spends on this earth. This is true of the life of Warren whose quiet, reserved way and kindly attitude toward his fellow men will serve as an influence for good always. xl! wg For us, The Class uf 1950. it is Journuy's End, a twelve year trip whieh has been so full of work and enjoyable events that we can count it one uf the most memorable events of our lives. Our senior year was especially outstanding because of the great leadership displayed by our officers: Bob Drake, president, Don Hawkins, viee-president, Keith Collier, secretary, and Gary Purvianre, ll L'2iSUFl?!'. The senior treasury was enlarged upon by our working at conres- sions during all basketball games, individual and tourney, and by the receipts from our play, The Campbells are Coming, under the dir- rs. Mn'Guire. ection of M May 212, 1950, s.iw us in Chicago on our trip during which we spent some of our money, However, our thoughts were not only on our own ple..-.ure for we prl-sentn-ml the srhool with an up-to-the-minute automat- ut -wt url- lvo.u'1l Mrs Mt-Gmre and Mr. Shafer were sponsors for the class of 1950 whim-h vhosn- thu- following for its motto, colors, and flower.

Its purpose is to promote student leadership, to encourage and initiate student view points, to take charge of intra-mural sports, and to organize a suitable convoca- tion program. Arrangements were made during the year by this organization for a Homecoming football game, with a huge bonfire rally the night before, and a parade of floats and the crowning of the Homecoming queen the evening of the game. Marilyn Kirby, who was selected by the team to be queen, reigned over the dance which concluded the Home- coming festivities. For the first time, this year the student Council presented a student talent show in which many of the hidden talents of the students were displayed.

These people must be able to type and being able to take dictation is an asset that is not overlooked in making selections. Other duties that they have are answering the telephone, taking up the attendance slips, and doing general office work. Some of these workers have definite jobs such as filing.

D., M. D., and D. D. T., have just completed a long series of experiments over a period of many gruelling years re- sulting in the discovery of the most astounding boon to mankind since the invention of the toothpick! The FUTURITY PILL! ! As yet, the Futurity Pill is in an undeveloped state and not yet ready to put at the disposal of the general public. However, only this morning, I conceived a magnificent idea which prompted me to rush immediately to the Attica High School, where after having assembled the senior class of 1950, I told them of my discovery and of my wish to use them in the initial experiments. A long deliberation followed, after which the president, Bob Drake, came forth from the consultation room to announce that the class had voted in favor of accepting my proposition. We are now gathered at my laboratory where each member of the class will take one of my pills after which he will immediately lapse into a deep coma which will transport him 20 years into the future in a matter of only seconds. We will then see how he will be living and what he will be doing at that time. For the benefit of human- ity, I will gaze into my futuroscope and report the happenings of each member of the class. After 20 minutes, each person will return to 1950 from the world of the future with no ill effects experienced. Each person has a pill and is now taking it. -------- Everyone is closing his eyes. The year 1970 is before us. The futuroscope is beginning to show an image. I believe it is--yes--it is Bob Drake, the class president. Bob, the State Highway Commissioner, has been boosting the paving of all gravel roads. He .directs his interest to the vicinity of Attica. There is achange and I see that Keith Collier and his lovely wife Marilyn, the former Marilyn Kirby, are starring in the Broadway musical hit, This Time for Keeps. Another scene change to the Williamsport Hospital where Mrs. Jenner Sundt, known to you in her school days as Gloria Hopkins, has just been appointed Head of Maids. Bill Miller, our up and coming lawyer at Newtown is fighting a hard fight against the young people's playing of pin-ball machines. Mary Kurz has been awarded the merit of accomplishment by becoming the first shoe repair woman in Attica. Gary Lane, a noted scholar, is touring the country and lecturing high school stu- dents on the value of studying. I see here that Francis Larson, head of Harvard, has decreed that the Harvard football team should be made up of A students and that one-half the team should be girls. As you know, she has made the University Co-educational. Doris Smith, the former Doris Livengood, is the first housewife to be appointed Secretary of State. Romona Lilly, author of that famous book You tell 'em, goldfish. You'vebeen around the globe, has written another hit, The Case of the Missing Garters , or-- The Last Time I Saw Paris . Dan Bartell has startled the world with his amazing discovery of being able to control his breath so as to stay under water for 10 minutes. Yesterday, he proved it possible by demonstrating before a crowd of l0,000. His condition is improved and he may regain consciousness this week. 1 see that Jerry Clements and Gary Purviance will play tomorrow for the World's Championship Table Tennis Title. It should be a thriller-diller, to say the most. Dick Franklin was high pointman again last night for the Minneapolis Lakers Pro- fessional Basketball Team. He led the scoring with a cool 106 points. Margaret Helms has gone into the business of manufacturing her invention, a sar- dine can one can't open for people disliking sardines. I see that Mary Holsinger is the new rage of the silver screen. She is starring in the latest Universal picture by playing the part of the Frankenstein monster in the ab- sence of Lon Chaney. Betty June Johnson has been hired by Purdue as a specialist. She attended college 12 years to become an expert on polishing carriage-frame-pointers on Underwood Standard Typewriters. Charles Knowles has set a new record by grossing S2,000,000.00 in one month as the owner of the Knowles Mamouth Super-Collosal Great American Clothing Emporium located at Steam Corner. He attributes his great success to the experience gained during his school days by working part-time for Louis Nathan. Pat Hidy has dyed her hair red and is playing center on the Red-Heads , Girls Professional Basketball Team. As you know, several years ago, some Vigero was accidentally spilled upon her at the Hidy Greenhouse which resulted in her attaining a dainty 6'6 Sonny Poston, now known as Irwin E. Poston, Father and Emancipator of the Arn- erican Slide-Rule, is in the headlines these days by proving that all of Einstein's the- ories are incorrect. He thoroughly disproves the theory of gravity. During his high school years, Greg Lawson was always the bashful type, so it is surprising to note that he is now a famous speaker and news commentator. He also cracks jokes on the Arthur Godfrey Show. Ray Green has recently been appointed senator to fill the seat left by Mr. F. E. Boone. Ray was a prominent business man before going to Washington. Tom Lefton is now the owner of the old Jones Elevator and doing quite well. He worked there during his high school days. Tom Fugate is now part owner of the Fugate-Smith Studios, located on U. S. 41 south of Attica. Tom used to take pictures of ball games, dances, etc. Betty Smith, M. A., who is a teacher at Eastern Kentucky Teacher's College, says she will always remember her school days at Attica High. The futuroscope shows us that Charles Tribby carried through on his plans to get married immediately after graduation. We see that Orville Van Dame is now a very successful farmer owning a 2,000 acre farm east of Attica. Donna Wallace is writing a lonely hearts column for the local paper. She also writes murders and mysteries but in her personal life she and her husband, Keith Anno, are two jolly people. Nancy Foster is now a car dealer selling 1949 Hudsons and 1941 Chevrolets. She is doing a thriving business. The great opera star Mme. Nancy Skinner is playing opposite Lawrentz Melchior in the new opera, Rag Mop The National President of the Society for Eradication of Slang from the English Language, Fred Thayer, is making considerable headway in this purpose. I see that Ann Livengood has been appointed matron in the new Department for Wo- men in Alcatraz. n ' Bob Bradbury has just recently been able to use the verbs lie and lay cor- rectly in ordinary conversation. Beverly Fink 'is the first mate on Carl Weigle's slow boat to China. Barbara Brier, now Mrs. Red Skelton has become quite a celebrity in Hollywood. Bill Ferguson is President of the Body and Soul organization for undertakers. He says that his business is rather dead. Don Hawkins and his dummy Sandy McPherson are Edgar Bergen's successors. Susan Rhode who is now Principal of Attica H. S. has just announced that she will hire Mr. Stevenson's brother as a teacher in the school providing he dates only the principal. , This week sees the retirementlof Bob Peterson from his 6,000 acre farm east of Attica. He says his nine sons wilI'continue to run the farm. Lawrence Mitton, one of the Class of '50's most eligible bachelors is doing very well in New York where he and Paul Matthews are running the Stork Club formerly owned by Sherman Billingsley. There has just been appointed a new head of the Speech Department at Attica High to replace Mrs. McGuire, Judy Logsdon. Mrs. McGuire will continue in the capacity of teacher. Bob Wilson is running a deluxe bowling alley in Danville. His main office is in Sloppy Joe's. Esther Null is running an Old Maid's Home in Indianapolis. Bill Perrin has fulfilled his ambition to become a popcorn magnate. The New York Yankees have just announced the purchase of a new pitcher, Wastella Pattengale, at a salary of 25,000 peanuts per year.- Mary Ritchie, now Mrs. William Garrettg is leading a very active life as a house- wife and president of the Loyal Order of Housewives. Fred Osborne is the sole owner of a hole-in-the-wall Coney Island Sandwich Shop. Well, lsee that the futuroscope is going black which means that the 20 minutes have elapsed and all the class of 1950 will return to their own time interval. They are awakening now. None will remember anything of the past 20 minutes. Let us hope that each member of the class may pursue and find his own particular path of accomplishment whatever it may be. I wish to report that the Futurity Pill is a complete success.
