l z y c to Four years ago, in the fall of 1957, the class of ' 61 left the launching pad and rocketed into outer space, commonly called high school. The four years of space travel ahead would be hard, we knew, but our ship was sturdy and well-built. To guide our ship the first year we chose George Luginbill, pilot; Gail Egly, co-pilot; Stanley Augsburger, radioman; and Anita Yoder, navigator. Our extra blasts were our initiation from the seniors, and two parties, a skating party and a gym party. Our officers for the sophomore year were Keith Kingsley, president; vice-president, Marjorie Liechty; secretary, George Luginbill; and treasurer, Jerry Zeigler. Our parties were a skating party and a party at the State Forest, The highlight of the year was order- ing our class rings. The third year of space travel was windy and gusty, but fun. The officers of our spaceship were Pat Raudenbush, president; George Luginbill, vice-president; Anita Yoder, secretary; and Gail Egly, treasurer. To raise money, we presented Finders Creepers as our class play. We made ourselves known by becoming the Yelling Champs of i960. In the spring, we respectfully invited the seniors to the Junior and Senior Reception. The theme was Hawaiian Holiday, and the cafeteria was beautifully decorated for this event. We rode full steam ahead into our senior year. We stopped at a space station just long enough to have our portraits taken. As chief instigators for our last year of space travel we chose Eugene Liechty as president; Jud Sprunger as vice-president; Sherill Beer as secretary; and Rita Wulliman as treasurer. We proudly presented The Little Dog Laughed as our last great dramatic masterpiece. We dedicated the publica- tion of Our Yesterdays to Mr. William Spurgeon, one of our math and science teachers. For our class motto we chose A winner never quits, and a quitter never wins. The class flower is the carnation, dyed to match our class colors, lavender and silver. Reaching our destination, we enjoyed ourselves with short stops at the Pops Concert, the Junior-Senior Reception, and the Alumni Banquet. On May 26, we received our diplomas, awards for four years of good space travel. STAN AUGSBURGER Better men than 1 have lived, but I ' ll make a study of it.
