Clay is very fortunate in having a program of four years of high school mathematics available to interested students. Advanced algebra students found the study of quadratics intriguing, but difficult. The Latin students studied vocabulary, grammar, religion, and the many ways the Roman civilization influenced ours. A scrapbook was made to find how Latin is used in modern advertising and language. l -A ffl f JACQUE PALMER B.S., Ball State Physical Science Mathematics wt QI., mg P Milfwl l' ' J'- 'at MARJORIE UNDERWOOD B.S., Indiana Central M.S,, Butler Mathematics Latin Library Music I-4 9 RAY WAGNER B.S., Manchester English and Dramatics Social Studies JOHN WARD B.S., Manchester John Herron Art Institute Art Social Studies The T958-59 school year was the first year Clay required the fourth year of English The class had some very interesting speeches and debates ln the picture the topic being debated was Should The South Integrate Their Schools.

THE CLAY TOWNSHIP BROADCASTING This is Clay Township Broadcasting System CCTBSI bringing you today, May I5, I959, Ralph Ramsey Brinkley and Melvin Wingard Huntley with local and world-wide news flashes. This special news program is broadcast annually to bring you news of graduates of 20 years ago of a small, but world-famous, high school located in Central Indiana. And now we take you to Waupecong for the local news given by Ralph Ramsey Brinkley. Mr. Brinkley: A local housewife, the former Sharon Newman, has recently developed and put on the market a new line of hoola hoopsflop sided ones for odd balls and square ones for block heads. Business for these hoops is really rolling! For meritorious service above and beyond the call of duty, Bill Myers has recently received national recognition in the W.O.L.F. Association, better known as the Worshipers of Lovely Females, but true to form, he was late for his own recognition dinner. Norma Powell, through research of her family tree has iust discovered that she is a direct decendent of the famous Dick Powell family of Hollywood. She plans a trip to Hollywood in hopes of using his prestige to become a private secretary at Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer movie productions studio. A prominent local accountant of our community, John Whitley, who recently invented a new style lawn mower, is now vacationing in sunny Hawaii. While there, he will test his new mower on the native grass. A flash from the West Coast: Beverly Stodgell, a well-known Hollywood dress designer, has iust been awarded an Oscar for the costume designing in the movie of the year, Business Prefers Women. Rhea Hoskins was voted best-supporting actress for her performance as, an efficient, female executive in the same movie. Miss Hoskins rose rapidly from the ranks of the amateur to stardom after her magnificent performances in The All-American Family and Father Was a House- wife. Dr. James Paschal and his nurse assistant, Miss Sondra Rickard, have recently discovered a sure cure for the common cod. Although the after-effect of the cure is an advanced case of pneumonia, the cold is completely gone. Janice Glassburn, well-known Indiana home econcmist, has iust established the National Associa- tion for Batchelor Girls of America. This association is dedicated to streamlining the household chores of one-room efficiency apartments in order that the occupant may do all housework in one- half hour daily while reading in bed. Secretary of the Gormet Division is none other than Janet Dear- dorff. Miss Deardorff's most famous culinary achievements are in the field of foreign cookery, including such delicacies as chocolate covered ants, french fried bumblebees, and rattlesnake steak. She claims the serving of these delicacies reduces the cost of party-giving for no one eats too heartily! Jay Agness, renowned scientist, has astounded the world by recently proving the Einstein The- ory to be false. Next week, Jay will pilot his own rocket to Mars. He claims and is attempting to prcve that the only men living on other planets are decendents of earth men who traveled there manylcenturies B.C. If Mr. Agness returns to earth with proof of this theory, he will surely be nominated for the new Nobel Pride for astronautical physics at the spring meeting of the Nobel Foundation in Stockholm. Lois Myers, named Miss Rocket of I975, in recognition of her exploration of the moon, has volunteered and been accepted to accompany Mr. Agness to Mars. Upon her return, she has con- sented to write a book about her experiences entitled Was This Trip Really Necessary? The world-famous chemist, Kenneth Myers, is on the verge of making a magnificent discovery of an acid that will eat through anything and everything. His most important problem now is: What will he keep it in? F 4 ll 'Q B 3-V, i Q I B T J t v luw1'wr- N R A 5 SYSTEM PRESENTS N WS DF THE D Y The great sculpturer, Sherman Chism, is now working on his masterpiece to compete for the Academy Art Award. Janet Sharp, leading model for Rosenthal's in New York City, has been eating for weeks in order to get in shape for this modeling iob. This is Ralph Brinkley at Waupecong now switching you to Melvin Huntley in Bennett. Take it away, Melvin. An-explorer was found nearly frozen to death today in Alaska. Authorities identified her as 37- year old Joyce Lamb. Although she had six cans of canned heat, Miss Lamb nearly froze to death from lack of a can opener. After many attempts to find a beverage that would not ferment, Phil Lewis has at last succeeded in making a drink that will make the old feel young and the young feel,younger. Lewis, owner of Bennett's local bottling company, received iust yesterday a patent from Washington for Lil' Abner's Famous Kickapoo Joy Juice. Showman Roger Glassburn, the owner of the internationally famous Glassburn Flea Circus, scratched himself to death. Friends report that he had been leading a dog's life. Larry Peters, former understudy to George Mikan, is currently starring with the House of David basketball team. After he ioined the team, he was not allowed to play any games until he had grown a three-inch beard. After three months' useless effort, Larry finally resorted to Dudley Gree- non's new product, Hairback. His major problem now is to keep the beard trimmed so that it does not obscure his sight on lump shots. Two local school teachers, Alice Lape and Carol Binkerd, took leave of absence today to pursue advanced study of nature by traveling. Being fresh-air enthusiasts, the ladies plan to travel by bicycle around the coastline of South America. Upon their arrival back in San Antonio, Texas, they will sell their bicycles and hike back to Bennett in time for the opening of school in September. Merle Birkey, a graduate of Purdue University, has iust received recognition for his recently de- veloped techniques in the field of animal biology. He has developed a strain of odorless skunks which will prove to be the most re-scent achievement to lovers of pet skunks. Rosalie Yoars, first woman to enter the 500-mile race at Indianapolis, has just set a new record. She completed the 500 miles in 35 minutes 33-2 seconds. She was driving the Green Dodge Special. And, now a news flash from Washington. lt has iust been announced that Renee Pond will fly tonight from LaGuardia Airport for immediate assignment as language interpreter to General Merrill Martin in NATO Headquarters, in Naples, Italy. General Martin, a 1963 West Point graduate, iust recently assumed command of American personnel at Naples. The New York Times has recently added a new literary editor to its staff. Janet Hedrick, the ap- pointee, has spent the last five years as editor of the Bowery News, Miss Hedrick will continue teaching debate in the local Bowery school. Nancy Chism has iust put on the market a marvelous new baby-sitting kit. This kit includes: I skeleton key for all refrigerators and 2 bottles of sleeping pills for non-sleeping little 'pills'. The president of the Pickled Peppers and Packers Association, David Spangler, was recently ad- mitted to the city hospital for treatment of a heart attack. Julia Hostetler, head supervisor of nurses, has assumed complete charge of Mr. Spangler's convalescence. That is the local and world news from Clay graduates as we know and see them tonight. Good night, Ralph Good night, Melvin And good night from Clay Township Broadcasting System. -Written by a committee from the CLASS OF 1960.

There were 43 who started to climb the first flight of stairs. As president, Kenny Myers led the group and to help him were vice-president, Jay Agness, secretary, Janet Sharp, treasurer, Sharron Faw- cett, and sponsor, Mrs. Underwood. That year Barbara Bargerhuff and Mike Zehring were chosen king and queen candidates for the Halloween Festival. To the delight of the class, Juelda Hostetler was chosen varsity cheerleader. Freshman cheerleaders were: Sondra Rickard, Janet Sharp, and Rosalie Yoars. ln the fall of 1956 we approached the stairs leading to our sophomore year. That year David Spangler led the group. Vice-president, Jay Agness, secretary, Joyce Lamb, treasurer, Janet Hed- rick, and sponsor, Mr. Baker, assisted David in the leadership. While climbing the second flight of stairs, we lost Barbara Bargerhuff, Lester Miller, Jim Paschal, Blaine Pond, and Patsy Stark- weather, but Rhea Hoskins, Lea Mosier, and Ann Varner ioined our class. We again participated in the Halloween Festival by electing Janet Hedrick and David Spangler as our king and queen candidates. At the top of this flight, we acquired our turquoise class sweaters. ln September 1957, we continued our climb with 33 members. Again David led the group, with vice-president, Sharron Fawcett, secretary, Joyce Lamb, treasurer, Janet Hedrick, and sponsor, Mr. Palmer, to help him. We were very active that year. We sold magazines, Christmas cards, and were in charge of the concessions. We presented our first big dramatic production, The Family No- body Wanted. Sharron Fawcett and Merrill Martin were our king and queen candidates for the Halloween Festival. While climbing the third flight, we again lost several students: Doyan Riley, Albert Thieke, Lea Mosier, Ann Varner, Waneta Mast, Larry Huffer, John Horner, and Mike Zehring. To add to our pride during this third flight, Sharron Fawcett was elected varsity cheerleader. At the top of this flight we acquired those long-awaited senior class rings. We also entertained the seniors at Honeywell Memorial in Wabash. Mrs. Velma Woodmansee entertained the group with humorous readings. The last flight of stairs was finally in sight, September 1958. With David to lead us and Janet Hedrick, Sharron Fawcett, Jay Agness, and sponsor, Mr. Freed, to help him, we were sure of a successful year. Those leaving us before commencing the final flight were: Loretta Birkey, Elijah Hawkins, Wanda Mast, John Shrock, and Carolyn Watson. We were happy to see Bill Myers, Carol Binkerd, Janet Deardorff, Jim Paschal, and Larry Peters join us. Juelda Hostetler and Bill Myers were our king and queen candidates for the Halloween Festi- val. Juelda was also elected varsity cheerleader, and Sharron Fawcett we re-elected cheerleader. On our second try at dramatics, we presented, Father Was A Housewife, starring Jay Agness. We finally reached the top of the stairs, enioyed the climb, and some regretted it was the last flight in our high school education. To climax the top flight, 33 happy seniors, chaperoned by Mr. and Mrs. Freed, left for New York and Washington. ?a'U5i'S e '1f!

The individual talents of members of this class were nurtured as class mem- bers participated in sports, clubs, and other extracurricular activities. Early in September, class sweaters were ordered, but upperclassmen were kept in the dark as to the color. Finally, one day in November, sophomore class mem- bers excitedly wore and displayed their flashy red sweaters. During the year, sophomores gave more and more time and thought to consideration of what careers they planned to follow after graduation.

At the conclusion of the first year of high school, each student had shown physical, mental, emotional, and educa- tional growth resulting from being one year older and one year of high school at- tendance. l FRESHMAN CLASS OFFICERS ON THE STEPS: Roger Oldham, President, John Rickard, Vice-President, DiAnne Childers Secretary, Anita Miles, Treasurer.

This helps students to develop an appreciation for science and the laboratory tech- niques necessary for further study in this field, if they should so desire. The new chemistry laboratory has been in the planning stage for two years and this year became a reality. The laboratory is set up on a semi-micro basis, where each student has smaller equipment and uses smaller amounts of chemicals, but produces the same results produced by bigger equipment, Experimentation on a small scale is a safety measure against large, dangerous explosions and is also more economical. The laboratory is complete for six- teen students. There are four student laboratory desks with two general laboratory tables. Each desk is equipped with bottled gas, electrical outlets, and an open drawer for the student to keep his books in. For each pair of stu- dents there is a locker to keep their equipment in. Clay community and school should be proud of this modern up-to-date laboratory where many students will learn more about the scientific world- 43 Editor ,,,,,,,,,,, L , ,,,,,,,, ,, Assistant Editor . ,,, ,,,, L Advertising Manager ,ii,,, Circulation Manager ee.,,w.

Very little time was wasted, while not on stage, there was a lot of mem- orizing taking place on the side lines.

COMMENTS FROM THE COAC This was Clay Twp's first year to participate in the summer baseball program ot the Tri-County Conference. Our record wasn't too impressive, but the expe- rience gained was the greatest asset acquired. Most ot the players had little experience, most of them had played in fewer than seven high school games. The six graduating seniors were the most experienced members of the team. Six of the returning members will have to till the open places lett by the departing seniors. Since the returning players are not experienced in some ot the vital positions, the future still isn't the brightest. Clay hopes to have a winning team in addition to gaining experience and developing sportsmanship next year.

We cer- tainly enioyed their expert meal preparation, planned by Mrs. Maple, home economics teach- er. From early in the morning until late in the evening our faithful ianitors, Levi and Grace Mil- ler, could be found at Clay working very hard to make school pleasant for us. Every morning and afternoon those yellow buses appeared. Behind the wheels we found men who were pleasant and willing to help us arrive safely to our destination.
