They are Cindy Carrahha, Ronald McReynolds, Juanita Reed. Dietrich Braun, Barbara Elmore, and Marvin Brown. The speech department brounght home many honors and medals this year, under the capable assistance of Miss Donna Burns. Events and people in the Speech department which placed fairly high in contests were: Marvin Brown in ora- torical declamation at Oakwood High School and the Ohio State Speech League Contest, Cindy Carrahha in the state finals for poetry, the debate team with Dietrich Braun and Ronnie McReynolds receiving first in the district, and Sue Toops who went to the state finals in the Prince of Peace Contest.

Spencer Schedler. Toby Groves, Lloyd Voelker. The senior class play “You’ll Die Laughing. was a three act mystery-comedy chat turned out to he a howling success. The plot became quite involved when Kim Waller was summoned to an old haunted houst as an heir of Jason Pike’s. Upon his arrival to Creepy Castle, he and his chum met Bridget, the superstitious Irish house- keeper. From then on it was a riot of laughter, ghost-cat sefeams, love entanglements, and spooks.

They performed during football season, putting the band through it’s formation as well as doing some fine routines themselves. When football season was over they kept right on, twirling their way into many honors through contests and other programs. Pack 20 CHEERLEADERS Left to right: Pam Shockley. Cindy Carrnbba. Bernice Cunagin. Janet Rapp. Barba Blake. The rising and effervescent school spirit of the student body was converted into rousing cheers for the support of the sports activities under the leadership of these enthusiastic cheerleaders. Selected by the popular vote of the entire student body the girls proved to be capable leaders in maintaining a high standard of sportsmanship in school activities. Pace 21 1 Aul'. —i. HOMECOMING Sue Toops and Ted Van Meter reigned as Homecoming Queen and King at the Homecoming dance held in the gym. The program at the game with Cincinnati Nor- wood was called off because of rain. The members of the queen's court were Norma Edwards, senior; Cindy Carrabba, junior; Judy Coren, sophomore; and Joyce Ashley, freshman. Sue and the members of her court were selected by the student body while Ted was elected by the members of the football squad.

Inexperienced at the start of the season, the Flyers gained plenty of know-how in their openers and finished the year by impres- sively winning their last three games.

Pace 31 Pace 32 The Fairborn marching hand, under ihe direction of Harry Smith, is pictured in the formation of the letter “F’ for the Fairborn Flyers. Pace 33 “MISS VENUS” Jacqueline Garner, better known as Jackie, was selected ‘‘Miss Venus” of 1950-51. The boys of the senior class were interrogated as to their preference in certain char- acteristics in the ideal girl. These characteristics were published in the “Flyer,” the sponsor of the contest. Their answers became the requirements of “Miss Venus.” Jackie was best qualified because she came the closest to having the following requirements: blue eyes, brown hair, medium dark complexion, 5-ft. 4-in. tall, 120 pounds in weight, friendly, good personality, like children, a sense of humor.

Bob re- ceived both Honorary Captaincy and Most Valuable Player awards. With four lettermen coining back next season, the Flyer squad is expected to breeze through their future schedule under the capable coaching of Allen Knisely. This first winter as varsity basketball coach turned out very mediocre due to the lack of experienced material and the scarcity of time in which Coach Knisely had to weld together a team of almost total strangers. However, when his former Jr. High teams become prominent, a radical change in results is expected. Pacf. 39 VARSITY FLYERS oUtnu.ii . uuii «tuouwi. Jim McCarty, Dick Cowman. Dick Funkc. Bob Hagen.

Of course, each had a different idea as to what makes a sum- mer vacation worthwhile. With Mr. Grayson’s stub- borncss, Rosemary’s haughtiness, Glenn’s jokes, and Jac’s sarcasm toward Rosemary, as well as the unusual antics of the other characters, the play was a roaring success. Much credit is due Miss Riggs who did an excellent job of coaching and to the many juniors who spent their time and efforts toward making “Gome Rain or Shine” the grand production it was.

The presentation of A Mystery for Christmas . a cantata, won the main project of the older diri� . They also made un appearance In the Spring Festivals. The highlight of the younger group was its part in the Armistice Day Chapel program. BOYS GLEE CLUB The Hoys Glee Club, directed by Miss Bennett, sang for Chapel Programs and the Spring Concert. The Desert Song and April Showers were two of the numbers that they have worked on this past year. Pace 50 ORCHESTRA The fifty-five piece orchestra is a very important part of our music department, the plays presented during the school year, and gave a concert in the spring. JUNIOR BAND the lorty-live piece junior band was not before the public eye much during the 1950-51 season, except for the Spring Concert, when they played several selec- tions. However, the band members did learn many of the valuable fundamentals of music which will help them to perform with the same high quality that is the tradi- tion of the Senior Band. Pace 51 Pace 52 Pace 53 OPERETTA Leads in the operetta are from left to right: Buddy Funke, Bill Vernier. Virginia Presley, Mary Lou Andes, Ray Lankston. Marilyn Hunt, Ted Van Meter. Carolyn Cromer. Below, and on the opposite page, are scenes from the hilarious and well-received operetta “Rio Rico,’ a product of the vocal ensemble. Page 54 ENSEMBLE The ensemble, a mixed group of juniors and seniors, under the direction of Miss Wilma Bennett, was the most active choral group at Fairborn. The high-lighted performance of the year was the very successful presentation of the operetta “Rio Rico.” The ensemble was proud to Ik the first group for several years to give a musical of this type. “Rio Rico’s” setting was in the South Seas on a small island where buried treasure was the main attraction. In a search for this pirate loot, a group of college .students went to the island, only to meet a lot of opposition several of the “two- hundred year old” mutineers who were determined to find their treasure also. The colorful costumes, solos, chorus numbers, and dancing all added to the success of the performance. The more serious side of the work done by the ensemble was displayed at one of the beautiful chapel programs when they sang parts from the “Seven Last Words of Christ.” Page 55 VOCAL, INSTRUMENTAL GROUPS Miss Bennett Miss Wilma Bennett has taught music at Fair- horn H.gh School for three years now. She has been the director of the ensemble for the past two years and has done excellent work. She also is the director of the Glee Clubs and teaches elementary music. Mr. Smith Mr. Harry Smith, better known as “Prof” has taught at Fairborn for the past twenty-three years. He has produced very fine bands. However, lie didn’t take the band to state this year, but concen- trated on the spring concert. Mr. Smith also gives lessons and is in charge of the music ensembles. To go to the state music contest this year was more difficult in the fact that only two ensembles out of all the ensembles receiving a superior rating were al- lowed to go. Flute Trio The flute trio was the only ensemble to receive a superior rating and get the nod to go to state. The trio consists of Overda Lipp, Carolyn Cromer and Judy Kyle. Sextette The girls sextette was the only other ensemble to receive a superior rating in the district, but they weren’t appointed to go to state. Pictured are Essie Gilmer, Virginia Presley, Miss Bennett, vocal instructor, Gwen Kneisly, Marilyn Hunt, Janet Vernier and Norma Edwards. Sax Quartet The sax quartet received an excellent rating in the district. The sax quartet is Jim McCarty, Bob Mitman, Dick Baker and Bob Hagen. Clarinet Quartet The clarinet quartet also received an excellent rating in the district. Playing in the clarinet quartet are John Kendig, John Loudakis, Ronald McReynolds, and Barbara Parsons. Page 56 SENIOR SCHOLARSHIP TEAM Pictured above are Spencer Schedler and Albert Narath. members of the senior scholarship team, who placed highest in the state tests.

Receiving honorable mention were, Dietrick Braun, 11th; James Johnson, 15th: Juanita Reed, 18th; Ray Lankston, 19th; Emerson Gamble, 21st, and William Hoch, 23rd. Other members of the Scholarship Team were: Ernie Barlhel, Richard Funke, Mary Lou Andes, Jackie Garner, Kathleen Ward, Jean Kindred, Ronald McReynolds, Vincie Bolling, Marvin Brown. Joanne Moriarty, Gwen Kneisly. Janet Olson. Bob Hagen, Arliss Rastenburg, Anne Grater, and Bill Vernier. Pace 57 QUILL AND SCROLL The FLYER,” Fairborn's first school publica- tion, was accepted by the Quill and Scroll, the Interna- tional Honorary Society for High School Journalists, this year. The purpose of the Quill and Scroll is to encour- age the idea of scholarship; to advance the standards of the profession of journalism by developing better jour- nalists, and by inculcating a high code of ethics to pro- mote exact and dispassionate thinking, clear and force- ful writing.” Mary Lou Andes, Maryln Brown, Gail Van Ves- sen, Virginia Turnage, Jim Johnson, and Ronald Mc- Reynolds were the six students who were selected as the honor members. They received the Quill and Scroll pins, while the school received the national charter. The six students had to fulfill the following re- quirements: Superior work in writing, editing, or busi- ness management.

One of the newest projects taken up by the Journalism class this year was an independent four page newspaper. It was a great responsibility accepted with much enthusiasm, and 33 issues of “The Flyer” were published. It had a great variety of information and also served as a means of portraying the lives and activities of all the students. Another big job of the Journalism class was to put out the year book. Much time and worry was put into it, wondering and working to assure the publication of the book. Mary Lou Andes was editor-in-chief of the annual and the newspaper with the capable help of Mr. Don Hayward, advisor.

The plot involved a determined George Peabody who was going to revise the family routine by his so-called “Peabody Plan.” After several trials in the Peabody family, the plan was proven to be unsuc- cessful but the play “It’s A Great Life” will go down in school history as a mem- orable event.

Final score was Fairborn 57Vi and Woodrow Wilson, the closest contenders, 57. The 880 yard relay team, pic- tured at the bottom left, of Dick Cowman, Ix;ster Light, Bill Vernier, and Bob Baker, set a new record which now stands at 1:36. Once again the Flyer traeksters have set a goal for future teams to measure up to. and a record which Fairborn can be proud of. Pace 64 G. A. C First Row: ArH s Rsuitenburg.

Outstanding members of the junior and senior classes are elected each year. The number chosen depends on the amount of students in the class. The four standards of the Society are. service to the school and community, schol- arship, leadership and citizenship. These serve as the basis for the election of mem- bers to the organization.

Page 75 Pace 77 CLASS HISTORY After twelve years of school, the seniors of 1951 are embarking upon Flight ’51, their flight into the future. Their destination: the stars. Of the ninety seniors graduated May 24, twen- ty-four began their education at Bath in the first grade. They are Mary Lou Andes, Malcolm Ayres, Mary Lou Boling, Vincent Bolling, Mary Burnett. Mary Anne Gavins, Donna Dersch, Carol Drass, Norma Edwards, Richard Funke, Nancy George, Ethel Godfrey, Hollis Henry, Jean Kindred, Sylvia Koogler, Ray Lankston, Mildred Prestel, Arliss Rastenburg, Marjorie Reynolds, Clifford Smith, Pat Stambach, Don Stuchell, Phyllis Wetzel, and Norma Whitt. The high school activities included the jun- ior play, ‘‘When I Was Green, ' the senior play, “You’ll Die Laughing,” the junior-senior prom, Christmas and spring concerts given by the music department, the operetta “Rio Rico” and the re- taining of the Little Six trophy in track. Several sports honors were awarded the seniors. In his junior year, Bob Hagen was named most-improved basketball player; when a senior, the most valuable. Ted Van Meter and Bill Vernier were co-captains of the football team and Ted was also voted foot- ball king by the 1950-51 squad. Mary Lou Andes received the Arion Founda- tion Award for outstanding musical achievement. Sue Toops reigned as Homecoming Queen and Jackie Garner was the Flyer’s “Miss Venus.” Pace 78 CLASS HISTORY There were sixteen active members in the band at the close of the year and six in the orchestra. The class of 51 had the first band of seniors to ever play at commencement exercises. This again was a step forward. The journalism class pub- lished an independent paper and formed the Quill and Scroll. Albert Narath and Spencer Schedler placed high in exams for seniors. Much credit for the fine high school record of the seniors goes to the class advisors who guided and directed the class on its journey. In the fresh- man year Mr. Glenn Riley, Mrs. Viola Marshall, and Mr. Harold Staley were chosen advisors. In the sophomore year, when the class had a hayride, picinic and dance, Miss Mildred Baver, Miss Jos- ephine Randall. Mr. George Moody, and Mr. Don- ald Hayward were the advisors. In the junior year when the class play, the prom, and extracurricular activities took the limelight. Miss Katherine Moor- head and Mr. Robert Martin served as the advisors. Responsible for the directing of the many senior activities, Miss Mildred Baver and Mr. Robert White guided the senior class on its last journey. The record of the Class of 1951 is a memor- able one, and as it journeys in the airways of life, it is certain that each one will remember the motto: “Too low they build who build below the stars.1’ Pace 79 SENIOR OFFICERS Hubert White.
