We chose as our sponsor, Miss Winifred Clark. Out of our class came Wanda Bauer, as presi- dent; Donald Wilson, vice-president and Jeanette Parks as secretary-treasurer. The first semester Ruby Varner was forced to leave school because of illness. At the be- ginning of the second semester we lost two pupils, Wanda Bauer and Ethelyn An- derson, but gained Phyllis Stephenson. The next milestone found nineteen mem- bers and that year we did not gain nor lose any members. Miss Vera Lawshe was our sponsor and our officers were Charles Yei- ser, pres, Phyllis Stephenson, vice-pres., and Jeanette Parks, sec.-treas. As we entered our third milestone, two members, Carol Pfafman and Helen Viet left us to attend Kendallville; however, George Febles entered our ranks. We ap- pointed Miss Lorena Justice as sponsor; Donald Wilson, pres.; Cleta Fisher, vice- pres.; Janis Busch, sec.; and George Febles treas. We received our class rings and al- so presented our Junior Class Play, ‘“‘Phan- tom Bells’, which proved very successful. Our fourth milestone! We are now Sen- iors! Due to the abandoning of LaOtto High School, we are glad to welcome to our group of fifteen, a like number from LaOtto. They were Dorothy Harrod, Alice Schutt, Robert Croy, Ted Owen, Eugene Balliet, Jacob Lochner, Bonnie Gorrell, Paul Grav, Max Bruce, Max Fasoldt, June Landgraff and Samuel Myers. Mayland Warble and Teresa Ley also enrolled in the class while June Sheets and June Rod- gers left school. Miss Fern Miller was chosen to sponsor the class and the offi- cers are Donald Wilson, pres.; Phyllis Ste- phenson, vice-pres.; Louise Castator, sec- retary and Ruth Shenck, treasurer. At the end of the first semester, the class was left in sadness over the death of a popular classmate, Janis Busch. Now we have thir- ty-one members, the largest ever to gradu- ate from A. H. S. and the honor of being the fiftieth graduating class.
