Cridersville High School - Lest We Forget Yearbook (Cridersville, OH)

Text from Pages 1 - 64 of the 1955 volume:

I LEST WE FORGET 1955 There has always been a general agreement among educators that all children in a democracy, regardless of economic status or any other difference, have equal rights to all privileges and opportunities that are available, be that health, happiness, education, or any other. It, therefore, is the aim and the duty of us in the Cridersville School to help adjust the curriculum and methods of teaching so that each youth can profit to the utmost of his ability. . . . . Vaughn C. Blauvelt Published by the Senior Class of 1955, Cridersville High School, Cridersville, Ohio c ,,,.

I tossed the letter on the desk, and walked to the tiny window, trying desperately to suppress the glow of excitement that surrounded and enveloped all in my attic apartment. The evening light was waning, but it was still bright enough to glimpse the cold frothiness of the rolling, thundering ocean below, lapping the New England rocks. The tears began dripping disconsolately down my nose, for my financial position was dire, indeed, not having sold a story in months. But I became hopeful, and a week later I was on the train, rumbling its way to Cridersville. A flurry of excitement - Cridersville, grown to enormous proportions - the gym that was new in 1955 - that was my destination. So many faces - then I spied the former Marlene Mayer. In addition to being married, with two children, she also has reached the height of success in her field - private secretary to the president of the Westinghouse Corporation. She led me to more of my classmates - bachelor Don Smith, who now farms seven hundred acres and, as if that weren't enough, he manages to have dairy cattle and hogs on what he has named the Smith Ranch. Several boys seem to have become successful farmers - such as Roger Butch Thompson, of the well-known Thompson Ranch: 1000 acres, 6 tractors, and his own dairy cattle. Roger has remained single, and so has Jerry Snider. Jerry has a 500 acre farm, and raises a few hogs and some beef cattle on the side. Just when I was about to draw a hasty conclusion that all farmers are bachelors, Jim Toland and Harvey Kiser stepped up. Jim farms 120 acres, owns his own machinery, is married and has 3 children. Harvey owns the Kiser Farm and is prominent in dairying. He has '75 milk-cows, and is also married with 3 children. By now I wondered whether either of the other two feminine class-members had been successful. I dis- covered that Gretchen Wolfe is married with 3 children, and, in her own home in Piqua, is the town's leading beautician. ln Joan Butterfield I found a kindred spirit - she writes too, for she is a reporter in a small midwestern town. There were still several more of my classmates that I hadn't seen, then I caught a glimpse of them shaking hands with everyone. Darrel Chapman is a chemical engineer, building a rocket ship to the moon. He is married and has 2 children. Don Bambauer also is married, with 2 children, and is now a doctor in Los Angeles. Jim Roser, I found, is now a civil engineer, who, like Denny Mooney, is married and has two children. Denny is now Lima 's foremost barber. Ion Rigg has been out of the Navy for 2 years, and is now the Assistant Manager of the Ohio Theatre in Lima. Gordon Sass is the Principal of Shawnee Elementary School. Outstanding in education, he is a bachelor, owning his own home and automobile. The rounds were made - there was nothing left to do but return home. So return I did, after a warm fare- well, though my thoughts still lingered on the achievements of my classmates during that brilliant, but brief span of ten years.
