There were fortyftwo of us, twentyftwo girls and twenty boys. After much confusion on our part we finally settled down and elected our class officers. Arlo Plough guided us through that year with the assistance of Mary Sacha. Donald Irvin recorded our meetings and collected our money. Donna Wright and Leland Conn very ably represented us in the Student Council. Mr. Kinney made a very good class adviser. Our irst year in high school went with a bang. Our first party was a weiner roast held at Shaw's Woods on October 25. Even though we forgot knives which made it necessary for us to spread the mustard and split the buns with our fingers, we had a delightful time. It was during this year that, since many in our class played instruments, we organized a class orchestra. We were well represented in athletics in our Freshman year. Some of the boys were on the Varsity. We were also happy to have Donna Wright and Mary Zehner chosen from our class to be school cheerleaders. They held this position during our four years of high school. However, we lost nine members from our class. The months flew by and soon our first year in high school was ended. Along with this, we were looking forward to seats in study hall the next year. When our class assembled in Nineteen Hundred and Fortyfone we had two new members added to our class, namely, Stella Yoder and Esther Beyeler. We again gave the leadership of our class to Arlo Plough and Donna Wright was his assistant. This year, Lois Meyer took down the minutes and Donald Irvin collected our hardfearned money. Our representatives on the Student Council were Mary Sacha and Milton Blough, Jr, We again chose Mr. Kinney as our class adviser. During this year, with Mr. Kinney as director, we produced a play for Chapel. It was liked by almost everyone. Lois Meyer represented Creston in the Dramatic division at the County Declamation Contest. We were again well represented in basketball and baseball, Even though we lost some members during the year, we were eager to go on to achieve our goal 4 graduation. When we came back to school in the fall of Nineteen Hundred and Fortyftwo, we were glad to find a new member in our class, Lucille Evans. Thus we numbered thirty. We changed presidents this year by electing June Blough president, and Donna Wright as his very able assistant. Mary Zehner was our secretary and Marjorie Weigley took up the duties of the treasurer. Our Student Councilers this year were Arlo Plough and Marjorie Reese. As Mr. Kinney had left Creston, we chose Miss Koehlein to advise us. N We astounded the high school by ordering class sweaters of Old Gold with black emblems. We also ordered our class rings which we were to receive when we came back to school in September. N fPage Elevemj l IIQI44 ANNIUAIL lil CLASS HISTORY We contributed a number of boys to our successful basketball squad of that year. They were june Blough, Jim Slater, Arlo Plough, Junior Henry, Bob Giet, and Donald Irvin. We had several parties during our junior year. On October 14, a farewell party and hay ride was given for Mary Sacha. We did not like to lose her as she was one of the leaders of our class. In May, our class play, The Red Spider , which was directed by Miss Mcllvaine, was a real success. This was the first mystery play given for some years. Using the proceeds from this play, we gave the Seniors a banquet on May 14, at the high school building. Dancing was the activity of the evening. On September seventh, Nineteen Hundred and Fortyfthree, we assembled for our last and busiest year in high school. Our class had now decreased to twentyftwo members. Milton Blough, Jr. and James Slater had left us to join the Marines. Wallace Totten moved to Congress and Arlo Plough moved to Pennsylvania. We chose Donald Irvin as our captain and Donna Wright was elected vice president for the third consecutive time. Ena Dyck received the position of secretary while Louise Metsker handled our money, Marjorie Reese and Bob C-iet were on the Student Council. We unanimously elected Miss McIlvaine for our adviser. On December second we gave our Senior Class Play, A Lady to See You , which was directed by Miss McIlvaine. This was an acclaimed success. On December 23, we had a Christmas party and exchange at Helen Dunlap's home. We had several other parties, including some birthday celebrations for members of our class. January 5, we held Senior Day. Every member of our class was given a chance to teach or at least to assist in teaching. We gained valuable experience through this and appreciated the teachers more. As a part of our education, our Problems of American Democracy Class visited the Wayne County Courthouse at Wooster on February 24. We gave our main at' tention to the Common Pleas Court, which was then in session. We were scheduled to stay there for just a half day, but the case was so interesting that we stayed the whole day. We came back from Wooster much wiser students. During this year, we made money by our class play, by sponsoring bake sales, a rummage sale, and by collecting old rags. For our class flower we chose the blackfeyed Susan and for class motto, Be not simply good, but good for something. -Opal Fry MORRISON GIFFEN-Army JOHN HALEY-MNavy FRED GLIEM-Army RICHARD HOLDERBAUM-Navy JOHN GOEMBEL-Army WILLIAM HUFFMAN--Army ROBERT GRAFY-Navy BERNARD IEFFERS-Army Air Corps CARLYLE GRUNDER-Navy DONALD KELTZ-Army fPage Twelvej 1-li-1 IIQII44 ANNUUAXIL CLASS WILL TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: We, the Senior Class of Nineteen Hundred and Fortyffour, about to depart from this our high school life, do hereby declare this to be our last will and testament.

ARTICLE IV We, the class of '44, extend to Creston High School our most sincere sympathies for the almost unbearable loss of 21 of its most talented pupils. Signed: Senior Class of 1944 Louise Metsker and Lois Meyer 9 fPage Thirteenzl ii-L lIQMl4l ANNIUAIL l CLASS PROPHECY One hundred twenty degrees in the shade! Why did the heat affect me so? It was a great relief to step into the cool library which was located in the outskirts of Phoenix, Arizona. My work as librarian kept me inside till five o'clock. Usually, the library was fairly well filled, but at three o'clock there were only five persons there. Since I was not busy, I decided to spend my time in checking over some new books. I noticed one which I had read while a Senior in Creston High School. This brought back memories of the class of '44. I silently asked myself how each had succeeded in his life and work. It was 25 years since graduation and I had not heard of many of them for years. However, a few were quite famous. The great comedian, Howard Feeman, at the age of 43 still received fan letters by the thousands. This reminded me of his great love for jokes back in '44, In the National Art Magazine of Famous Paintings, I always noticed Ena Dyck's name at the top of the list. She, also, had been a good artist during high school. Junior Henry was quite famous for modernizing the railroad system for those who could not yet afford helicopters. He had eventually reached the goal of president of Erie Railroad. My mind was deep in the realms of memory, when I was awakened by someone who placed a book on my desk and spoke to me. I forced myself back to reality and finished my work for the afternoon. But as I left the library I had a homesick feeling for Ohio. Possibly I could get a month's leave and tour a part of Canada en route to Ohio. I immediately went back to get a leave of absence, which was granted to me. I hoped it would be possible to see many of my classmates during my vacation, A few days later I left Phoenix by plane. During the journey I saw a prosperous looking salesman trying to high pressure two gentlemen into buying a helicopter. He was very enthusiastic in proclaiming its great virtues. Where had I seen this salesman before? Gradually it dawned upon me that it was Bob Giet. He had not recognized me, Here was the mountainous region of Rock Springs, our next stop. The stewardess informed me that the second stop was Yellowstone National Park, which was directly on my way to Canada. The beauty of the park so thrilled me that I decided to spend a day there. I was completely surprised to recognize the guide, who was assigned to me, as Evelyn Reese. She made the trip through the park very interesting for she was a splendid guide. The wild life of the park appealed to me greatly, especially since Evelyn could ap' proach most of them without frightening them away. While there, she told me that Mary Zehner was a retired airline stewardess. She had married and was settled to quiet living on a beautiful estate. I also learned that Stella Yoder had been at the park that summer. She had been a secretary for a few years after graduation and was now married. She had stopped at the park on her way back to North Dakota. After a meal at one of the fine hotels at the park, I boarded the plane for Winipeg, Canada. A few of my relatives were living here, whom I visited the next few days. One took me to see one of the finest libraries in the city. A woman seated at a table looked up and watched me curiously as I walked around in the library. Just as I was leaving she came to the door. It was Bernice Collins. She had recognized me but had to introduce herself, for she was so much thinner. She was an expert in Home Economics in Winipeg, Bernice told me that Donald Irvin was married and the owner of a great dry goods department at nearby Kenmore, Canada. He was doing very well in that business. liPage Fourteenj IIQID44 ANNIUAIL 4 CLASS PRUPHECY The next morning I left for Buffalo. This time my trip was by rail, as I could see much more of the country this way. While on the train, I picked up a newspaper. There in big headlines was the announcement that Opal Fry of Montreal, Canada, had made a big name for herself by proving that a lawyer could be a lawyer without being a liar. The paper also stated that she was not married. On arriving at Buffalo, I went to see the Niagara Falls. As our class had vetoed the idea of going there for the senior trip, I had never been there before. At the Niagara Airplane Terminal, I was told that planes traveled directly from there to Wooster Airport which was now a huge concern, Of course, I availed myself of this good opportunity and went to Vxfooster the same day. How good Wayne County looked to me! It was there I saw Helen Dunlap. I stopped to chat with her, as she was just going home for lunch, I went along. She told me she was a beauty operator and owned her own shop, Margie Reese, she informed me, was a relief worker in Greece. She had gone across after the war as a Red Cross worker, and liked her work so well that she stayed there, That evening Helen and I went to Chippewa Lake where Lucille Evans and her husband operated a popular pleasure resort. They were the parents of five laughing children and Mama and Papa were very proud of them. Later, we went to see the June Bloughs. You'd never guess who his wife was. It was Donna Wright, of all persons. Such is life, ever giving unexpected surprises. Mr. and Mrs. Blough operated a selffserve grocery store. One feature of the store was little electric carts to carry the groceries. This was a decided advantage over the old push system, Further questioning revealed that the Bloughs were without children. Annetta Sherwin was happily married and lived in a suburb of Cleveland. She had nine children, all boys. Her cherished dream of a baseball team had come true. Before I realized it, there were only nine days of my vacation left and rather reluctantly I thought of going back to work. My trip back took me through Florida, for I wanted to see Lois Meyer, who I had heard was principal of schools in Miami. Saying goodbye to old friends in Ohio, I again boarded a plane for Florida. Arriving at Miami, Lois was soon located. While visiting with her, I concluded she must have a fairly large bank account for she was living quite luxuriously. Her gray hair reminded me of her part in the Senior Play, A Lady to See Youu. Lois was eager to know about all the classmates and was planning a reunion in Chio for sometime in the near future. Lois knew where Edith Means, one person whom I had not located, was living. She was at Dallas, Texas running a restaurant. The next day I left Miami for Dallas. It was my plan to see Edith while there. Her restaurant was not hard to find as it was a very good one and she was running a very flourishing business indeed. Edith was a very busy person but she took time to visit with me and, for a day, took me to the most interesting places in Dallas. While visiting with her, I was told that Donna Belle Beichler was a florist in Hawaii exporting orchids to America for thirtyfiive cents a dozen. Edith wanted to know where Marjorie Weigley was, and I told her that she was a manager in the Vv'estern Union Telegraph Company in Denver, Colorado. She was very successful and if I remember correctly she was always very systematic in her school work. Upon arriving in Arizona, I was surprised upon thinking back, to find that I had been able to see, or at least find out where all the class members were. And, mentally, I wondered why life had placed us as classmates so far apart. -Esther Beyeler fPage Fifteenj 1lQMl4l AN N IUAIL JUNIOR CLASS Row lflvlargaret Yoder, Marian Johnson, Evelyn Lance, Roberta Rugh, Dean Blough, Dean Mumaxw Betty Plants, Althea Haley, Glenda Yoss, Elizabeth Beyeler.

Our room is always a scene of action. But don't be misled for most of our pep doesn't make itself obvious in scholarly achievement. Please don't criticize us too harshly, After all, we're the greenest green of all six rooms. Some of us don't even know yet why we're going to school. Others of us are in that romantic stage where nothing as common as hooks can keep us in this world. And then we have our day dreamers, But what class doesnt? Are you not convinced by now that we'll improve with age? Miss McIlvaine's assignments have made us a bit more serious. Miss Kalkas and her paddle have worked hard on us this year. Mr. Frey's advice has helped us grow up. And Mrs. Romich's stormy scowls showing her displeasures have kept us from being too pleased with ourselves so far. fPage Twentyfonej SENIOR CLASS PLAY A Lady to See You Row 1-Lois Meyer, Donald Irvin, Mary Zehner, Kenneth Bricker, Donna W'righ1:.

Our Student Council has not been as active this year as in previous years. It had charge of defense stamp sales throughout the grades and high school. There has been over S1000 worth of stamps sold during the year. Row 1 it R. O. H.

MARTIN'S MAD HOUSE The time is fifteen minutes until nine on an average school morning. The scene is the study hall of dear old Creston High School. Scattered here and there are students in their seats studying industriously. Others are laughing and talking, yes, and even arguing. Arguments are heard on almost any subject. 'LChester will take the tournament Ifll bet. Chester? Don't you know that Smithville beat Chester not very long ago? NI didn't like that show last night -Htoo much sob stuff. Oh, you don't know what you're talking about! I like that kind better than those old Western shows. I think we should go to some big city and visit night clubs and all the hot spots, a senior is heard to say. Another im' mediately answers, Well, I don't have money to spend like you do. It costs a lot to visit a city. 'iWell, why don't we visit some of Ohio's beautiful spots? Oh, gosh, who wants to do that? I do. just then in walks Mr. Don Martin, lord of study hall. Will you people please take your seats and be quiet? storms Mr, Martin. After this I don't want to tell you again. During the next ten minutes pupils go in and out the spacious hall. As one sits in the room trying to study, he can hear much talking and laughing in the outer hall. Now more and more pupils are taking their seats in study hall and one knows that it is near nine o'clock. Suddenly a bell rings and in walk students of all shapes and sizes. For about three minutes, there is quite a commotion taking place, much to the annoyance of Mr. Martin. While everyone is trying to get settled, Miss Betty Plants gets up and strains her neck. Vxfhy? Because she is official roll taker and she must see who is and who isn't there. just about this time, Donna Wright and Mary Zehner find set mouse traps in their desks and are afraid to take them out. Back to the senior section walks Mr. Martin. Into the desk goes his hand, but out it comes much faster. Finally, with much skill on his part, he pulls both his hand and the mouse trap out without being injured. 7 Mr. Martin then proceeds to his throne at the front of the room. just as the tardy bell rings, in walks Kenny Bricker exclaiming, Whew, I made it! He is closely followed by Bernice Collins. just about this time, Ena Dyck trails along in, too. Sudf denly, a loud crack is heard, and Bernice Collins is heard to exclaim as she places her hand on her heart, OfOh! Then everyone bursts out laughing, including Berny. Finally quiet is once more regained. Just behind me Opal Fry whispers, Now I suppose he'll give some detention hall sentences! Mr. Martin pushes his chair back and stands up. All, especially the guilty ones, hold their breath. Why? They fear def tention hall sentences. , Boyes, Zehner, Irvin, Meyer, Henry, and Collins will visit Miss McIlvaine for one hour tomorrow. First classes are now called. After a few outraged protests from these offenders, everyone, or almost everyone, files out and a new day at Creston High School is begun.

They were hard fighters from the time they entered the game until the closing whistle blew. They did not win quite as many games as last year's team, but they surely did their best. The boys showed much improvement as the season progressed. They proved their good sports' manship by their playing whole heartedly on losing games. Much credit is due to the coach, Mr. Martin. He has proved his ability by getting the team organized and starting the new recruits. The five starting men were Dean Blough, Bricker, Slater, Giet, and Henry. Dean fBlukej Blough, forward, A substitute from last year, Dean has earned a regular berth this year. As Dean is a Junior he will probably be a valuable player next year. He is second high scorer this season. Kenneth fBrickj Bricker, forward. He also is a substitute from last year and has gained a regular berth on the varsity. He will probably hold the position next year. Carl QWhiteyj Slater, Jr., center. Whitey is a new player this year, but is a very valuable one. He is always there to iight and to score. He was high scorer for the team this season. Robert fBobj Giet, guard. Bob is a good man on defense and as a back guard. He is also good on offense. Bob graduates this year. Junior fHenj Henry, guard. From a substitute of last year, Hen', has worked himself up to be one of the Hrst men on the Varsity. He has worked hard playing basketball and was a mainfstay of the team. Hen will graduate also. The four substitutes of the Varsity deserve much recognition also. Although they didn't see much action on the Varsity, they really showed the spirit. They are: Harold Reese, Arthur Meyer, Eugene Sigler and Jimmy Blough. . BASEBALL Although our baseball team lost quite a few of its Varsity members, it has made a ine showing, The boys out for baseball are: Henry, Giet, Markley, Sigler, Bricker, Reese, Coffey, D. Blough, J. Blough, Meyer, Ripley, and Lucas. Considering transportation difficulties, the baseball team has played quite a num' ber of games. For further details read the Athletic Calendar. TRACK Last year was the irst year Creston participated in track meets. The boys made a fine record last year and we hope that they might make a better one this year.
