In a well-ad- justed school, the feeling of friendliness and goodwill is reflected in everything they do — their classes, their extra-curricular activities, and their athletic events. Every phase of their diversified life blends together to make one joyous symphony of clean and bal- anced living. Our high school is one such as this. In every one of our students a grand feeling P e 2 . . . OUR SONG of cooperation prevails. We have few problems of juvenile delinquency — we are all far too busy being useful and enjoying ourselves. Here we are not only learning the lessons which lie between the covers of our textbooks; we are learning to think intelli- gently and to live together harmoniously. What’s more, we love it! In this year's Flight we hope to give you a glimpse of that happy spirit which is so prevalent in our school life. We would like to share with you the joy we're singing from the house tops. This is our song! Page 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS faculty students activities athletics advertising Pa e 4 the editor speaks There are many beautiful things in the world, but what could be more beautiful than the thousand blended notes of a great symphony? We have all heard one at some time or another. But no matter how many times we listen to it, we never cease to be amazed by the miracle of harmony which results from the blending of different instruments and note patterns. When each part is played alone it lacks power and magnificence; but when it is combined with the rest, the result is a brilliance of song beyond comparison. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if the nations of the world could blend together as do the notes of a song? This has been man’s goal for a long time to no avail. There has always been one nation or another who couldn't work with the others to create this feeling of unity. As a result we have never had world peace. Instead we have had times of war, impending war, and armed truce. One of our main troubles has been the fact that we've tried to create a unity of purpose through ac- tual bonds between human beings. We’ve overlooked the fact that it is impossible to say presto-change-o” or to sign a treaty, and then sit back expecting mer to automatically dwell together in harmony. If you will look behind the scenes of that great symphony, you will find that that magnificent harm- ony didn't just happen.” It was planned. It started with a contract of some sort, but it didn’t stop there. Mary Esther Johnson Every note pattern had to be adapted to the others by skillful arrangers; every instrument had to be tuned so it would harmonize with the rest; and fi- nally, every musician had to play his instrument so that it would blend with the others rather than clash discordantly. Everything had to be checked and dou- ble-checked, then executed with the skill that only practice brings. Likewise, a treaty is a fine beginning but not an end in itself. It takes the cooperation of the people involved to make the treaty meaningful. Everyone must work together. Such a skill in human relations requires much practice. Just as the executors of a great symphony must have practice, so must the exec- utors of world harmony. We are getting that prac- tice every day in Fairborn High School. The great challenge is for us to apply that knowledge in later life to the creation of an even greater song — that containing world harmony. —Mary Esther Johnson Page 5 DEDICATION God created earth and made it beautiful. He gave it to Man for his enjoyment. He made Man the master over the elements. He made Man supreme. But Man has done very little to thank God for his precious gift. Man has destroyed the beautiful, distorted the good, and enjoyed the evil. He has, at times, made the earth glow with the fires of war. He has, at times, let his animal instincts conquer his human emotions. He has, at times, struck a discordant note dimming the bright hopes for a harmonious world. Yes, man has done all of this and yet for every wrong thing man has done, God has given him another chance—another chance to enjoy, not destroy the beauty around him—another chance to let the vibrant strains of harmony prevail. It is the hope of us who are young and idealistic that man will recognize his chance —that he will use it, in the best way possible, to promote that beauty of brotherhood which God first created. And thus we dedicate our yearbook Flight 1957 to strong men and women who have gone before us, who are part of us, who will come after us, and who are constantly promoting unity among man and nation—strong men and women who are using the second chance God has given them. We dedicate this book to them, and in doing so, we realize that it is our responsi- bility to be those strong men and women. It is for us to be the individuals who will live, work, and if necessary give our lives for the extension of an idea and an ideal. This ideal was formulated many years ago and yet the challenge it offers has never been mastered. It lies ahead and we who have been given our second chance can, if we are willing to do so, conquer it. Then and only then will we have the true harmony which is, after all, the essence of the ancient and modern ideal of peace. — Sudic Duncan — Spare Moments Between Classes ?acutty they direct our song The theme of this annual, “This is Our Song,” suggests to me that high school can be likened to a medley of songs. Teen-agers have only to tune in on the many high school subjects and activities to find the right pitch for their future lives. It is my sincere wish that these high school experiences will help develop adults who will live in harmony with their fellow men. H. K. Baker Superintendent of Schools —H. K. Baker BOARD OF EDUCATION There must be a glow in the hearts of our planning board when they look out on every side and survey the majestic educational structures that have been erected through their organization and planning. We cannot help but wonder at the terrific sacrifice that they must have made to materialize such an undertaking. We believe that the citi- zenry of this community owe a very great debt of gratitude to these five individuals who so faithfully planned our modern educational facilities.

You students have shown your pride in it by treating it well. You have proven yourselves to be outstanding in spirit, in devotion to your job, in school citizenship. Success has come your way in scholarship, in music, in speech, and in athletics. We have received our share of honors and commendations for which we are all proud. May your community, your parents, and your school con- tinue to be proud of the work you do at Fairborn High. —Edwin Burkhart under their leadership . . . Every song must have a director to work out various parts, blends, and effects. The leader of a choir, for example, spends hard and long hours in preparation, training his choir, trying to make them into a piece of perfection. Then comes the day of the per- formance. The choir rises, the director comes to the front, raises his baton, and conducts the group in one of the most beautiful concerts the audience has ever heard. The crowd brings down the house with thundering applause. We wish to give our directors of Fairborn High School the same kind of thunder- ing applause. Mr. Edwin Burkhart, Principal; Mr. Fred Buschemcyer, Assistant Princi- pal; and Miss Millie Parker, Dean of Girls, work many long and tedious hours to bene- OFFICE STAFF Mrs. Charlotte Bleininger, Mrs. Cravens, and the office aides are really the best pals a student could have. They always have a smile on their faces and arc willing to help out in any phase of school life. We wish to extend our sincerest thanks to them for doing such a wonderfully efficient job. Page 10 SEATED: Artis Hampton, Charlotte Bleininger (Sec.), Mrs. Cravens. STANDING: Ann Brammer. Fred Buschemeyer Assistant Principal Millie Parker Dean of Girls ... we aspire to greater goals fit their students, just as the choir director does. But their applause is not represented by one single ovation. It echoes throughout the year. It comes from executives, business- men, housewives, clergymen, mechanics — all types of townspeople who have children in school, or those who are connected with the school system in any way. And most important, this applause comes from us, the students. We appreciate all that they have done to help us develop into individual personalities and to become a part of what we hope will be a harmonious world. They have given us the staff, the notes, the G cleft— all the necessary parts of the framework for life. They have given of themselves, and, It is when you give of yourself that you truly give. —Judy Landrum TEACHERS' COMMITTEE Every executive; no matter how compe- tent, finds he cannot carry the burden alone. We arc fortunate in having a group of fac- ulty members who serve as an advisory board to Mr. Burkhart. They meet each week to discuss the needs of both students and teachers, and to perform the tasks nec- essary in keeping our school running smoothly and efficiently. FACULTY COMMITTEE Mr. Buschmeycr, Miss Baver, Mr. Burkhart. Mr. Marshall, Mrs. Keeler, Miss Randell. Miss Parker.

Education Birthplace: Yorktown, Indiana College: Wittenberg Subject: English Activities: Freshman Advisor english and related subjects . . . Throughout our high school years, we have continually been told English is a must. In our modern day and age it is essential that every member of society be able to express himself clearly and intelligently. In our English Department grammar is not the only phase of English stressed. The study of great foreign and American authors and their writings was also in- i . Jtorporatcd into our education. After studying the writings of others we gingerly y took pen in hand and tried to express our own feelings. These three phases of English have given us a well-rounded knowledge of this primary subject. Energetic students who desired to put their English talents to further use found just what they desired in the Speech and Journalism Departments. The Speech Department teaches the fundamentals of public speaking and gives students self confidence in expressing themselves before a group of people. I SPEAK FOR DEMOCRACY CONTEST WINNERS One of the activities in which the mem- bers of the speech classes participate annu- ally is the I Speak For Democracy Contest, sponsored by the Fairborn Junior Chamber of Commerce. The winners this year were, from left to right, Mary Esther Johnson, second place; Ken Mitchell, first place; and Sudie Duncan, third place.

Struggling out of bed at the crack of dawn on Saturday mornings, the stout-hearted speech students set out to win a name for themselves and their school in public speaking. This speech experience will prove valuable in the years to come. When a student feels he has a workable knowledge of the king's English he might try his hand in the Journalism Department which consists of the newspaper and annual publications. Mrs. McMahan's department will produce the editors and reporters of the future. Since English and its correct usage is of primary importance in journalism, it is necessary for a member of the journalism staff to have a firm grasp on the subject. But to know the language is not sufficient. He must be original and be able-to express his thoughts clearly. When a member of the journalism staff scans the pages of a copy of the weekly Flyer he can be proud of a job well done. ■'MTS ANN LANGSTON, A.B.

Whenever a member of the Journal- ism, Speech, or English Department, or, for that matter, any member of the schol, had reference assignments he would find the correct answer in the innumerable reference books in the school library. Under Mrs. Langston's careful supervis- ion the library was kept in excellent con- dition and at the disposal of the student body at all times. JOURNALISM CLASS AT WORK PAUL TROTTMAN, B.S., Ed.

The Foreign Language Department contributes to a well-rounded education in various ways. Not only does the student learn to express himself in a second tongue, but he also acquires a knowledge of the country from which the language came. Courses are provided in French, Spanish, and Latin for those who are interested in expanding their linguistic abilities. When the job is done the student has a bright, new feather in his cap. The reward is magnifique! ” WHEN IN ROME, DO AS THE ROMANS DO With this old saying ringing in their ears, the members of Miss Parker's Latin II class endeavored to turn the'F.HS cafeteria into an authentic Roman dining hall. Dressed in togas, tunics, and stolas, they ate their dinners reclining as the best of Romans did. Pictured above enjoying the meal are Mike Nagel, Jud Dicello, and John Rawlings. UNO, DOS, TRES . . Spanish students find that counting, adding, and subtracting are considerably more difficult in their newly-adopted tongue than in English. MARTA GERHART. A.B.

Subject: Social Studies . . . promote world understanding The record of past ages contributes to a better understanding of the future and of lands across the seas. A student of history has a broader outlook on distant countries and understands the problems of their past. He has become conscious of the outside world and is also friendlier towards it because he has discovered what makes it tick.” History at Fairborn is not dates, figures, and hard facts. Rather, it is a subject that is composed of concepts, beliefs, and important events woven together to give us a clear and interesting picture of the past. This knowledge will be beneficial to us in the future. Many people today believe the old adage, History repeats itself.” If this is the case, Fairborn students will be well prepared.

Math is essential to engineers, doctors, housewives — to every citizen of our mod- ern-day world. It is the foundation of our modern civilization. That’s why polynomials, theorems, logarithms, and cosines arc among the terms necessary for a well-rounded vocabulary. With a sound knowledge of algebra, geometry, and trig we can feel more secure in our quest for a place in the world. Under the expert guidance of Miss T,” Mrs. Clark, and Miss Hastings we are gaining this vital information. Solving the Problem Plane geometry students get a taste of solid geometry. Whew!

With a sound understanding of math, these inquisitive students can discover the how” and why” of basic science problems. These classes are not only delving into text books, but experimenting in the labs as well. This gives them a chance to see the wonders of science first hand. From the freshman year to the senior year we have a good opportunity to gain scientific knowledge. From general science we progressed through biology, physics, and chemistry. With these subjects under our belts” we are ready for the future. MARY FAILS, A.B.

Our art department has taken big strides under the capable direction of Miss Crumrine. Many fine pieces are exhibited, and our students have proved themselves to be excellent anists. Cece Walden and Fred Buschemeyer industriously work on the silk backdrop used for the Christmas Concert presented by the Fairborn High School Choir, under the capable direction of Mrs. J. E Crawford.

Immaculate kitchens are a must with Mrs. Wilson, cafeteria manager, and her team of ten workers. The best of food products are used in preparing our attractive and scien- tifically balanced meals. No doubt this is one of the major factors, that makes for a happy atmosphere in our school. (2) Ready for Action Equally important is the job of keeping the building clean, neat, tidy and attractive, not only for the good health of the school, but as a mighty force in teaching students to respect public buildings. Our custodians are most agreeable and efficient. They take much pride in their work, and are ever ready to perform the many little tasks that teachers and students continually desire, when a project is being materialized. We owe a debt of gratitude to these fine helpers. Mr. Sink, Mr. Reynolds and Mr. Haney.

You along with all the potential athletes, who never quite made the varsity, but were long on the ’know-how’ faculty members, who wished to stretch their tired muscles, and former coaches who were aching to get the feel of the ball once again, all made up a benefit team to challenge the regulars and play Santa Claus to the un- fortunates. Fairborn Globe Trotters A mighty host of rooters awaited the signal bell. The tussel was on. Whether bas- kets were made or how was of little consequence. Not to go unnoticed were the attrac- tive faculty cheerleaders clad in quaint costumes, cheering their team to victory with clever yells, hand springs and snappy songs. Censors will not permit a play by play re- cital of the game, so the final note must be left to the imagination of the audience. Enough to say, some found keeping fit is not a one day process, mental functions Faculty Cheerleaders: Titlow, Keeler, Langston, page 23 Heimbach, Crawford. MR. JOHN SHEPHERD IN MEMORIAM The students and faculty were saddened by the death of our wonderful counselor and shop .teacher, Mr. John Shepherd, who died October 4, 1956. He always had a smile and cheery word for everyone. He was dedicated to his work and served the school well in classes, at outside activities, and at athletic events. Mr. Shepherd had a very great love for nature. During his summer vacations, he served as a forest ranger in the Black Hills of South Dakota. Page 24 He was never too busy to lend a helping hand to a student in distress. Although his jolly presence is greatly missed by all of us, he will live on in our hearts and minds. Senione 1— Marilyn McCoy 3—Sudie Duncan (Pres.) 2— Barbara Clemmer 4—Thom Layne today we follow . . . tomorrow we lead The chords and passages which blend together to make a harmonious school spirit are evident in every phase of our high school life. As members of the class of 1957, we feel that we have provided one of the dominant chords which make our high school's song so beautiful. Ever since wc stepped into our new building as freshmen, we have marched for- ward with strident steps to make a place for ourselves. We never felt very lost in our new building because it was new to the other three classes as well. The freshman dance, Sweetheart Swirl, was our crowning glory. Soon after this we were sophomores. Proud were we because we were no longci the new ones. Wc proved that we were good workers, by being very enthusiastic and bringing in tax stamps, and giving Fairborn the best Christmas formal ever. Our class picnic was the climax of the year and as old friends graduated, wc moved up another step on our high school ladder and began our junior year. At last we were upper classmen! At last we could wear those shiny, gold class rings. Many exciting things happened this year, as we began to accept the responsibili- ties as well as the honors allotted to upper-classmen. What one of us can ever forget the magazine campaign or the thrill of spotlights as we presented our first play, Riddle Me Riches. But the most memorable experiences of this year developed as we planned, and gave the seniors a Roman Holiday.” Then came the one and only senior year. It was hard to realize that graduation was so near, but our last Homecoming dance made us painfully aware of the fact. Every- thing we did took on added significance. The Perfect Idiot” was a roaring success, and soon after that we were caught up in the rush of ordering name cards, invitations, and being measured for caps and gowns. Commencement was facing us squarely, and all our final flings became gay but touched with sadness. For, we were leaving our school, leaving the harmony of the song we had helped develop. Yes, today wc follow, tomorrow wc lead;” but wherever wc go, whatever we do, the song of Fairborn High School will remain with us forever; for, this is our song! —Sudie Duncan Page 27 PHYLLIS ANN ADAMS Your quiet manner it your golden key to happiness.” Birrhplacc: Salyersville, Kentucky Fairborn 1,2,3,4 Senior Scholarship Team 4; Journalism Club 4; Newspaper staff 4; Annual Staff 4; Chorus 2.3,4.

In the senior scholarship tests, twelve of our students were among the first twenty-five per cent of the entrants, with Emmett Keeler making the highest score in the history of the county. Dave Hines placed second with the other twelve following close behind. In music, both the senior sextette and Don Lawyer received the highest honor possible — first place ratings in the State Music Contest. In sports, two of our seniors were elected all-M.V.L players. Indeed, these honors are not to be minimized and are paving the way to many more successes for these talented people.

THE PERFECT IDIOT- —Senior Clots Ploy— It seems incredible that dignified and intellectual seniors should choose a play with such an idiotic title. You will never forget the all-star cast headed by Emmett Keeler, with the Smart- me, Dumb-you, attitude, and the one and only, Sudie Duncan; nor will you forget the High School Gang —including Jane Greeny, Mike Padovani, Marty Saylor, and her Puff, Doug Lykins (who kept saying I’m not so dumb, I just can’t remember. Fred Buschemeycr, in his hypnotic state thought he was a rabbit, and ate carrots while Mary Esther Johnson, the sedate, fussy school teacher, reported Emmett's actions at school to the dismay of all. A brain specialist. Jack Shuck, was called, and declared Emmett was a perfect idiot. The colored maid (Keatha Kiser) tried to make Emmett see the folly of his ways. Last but not least we introduce Mom and Dad—Judy Landrum and A1 Dulevitz. Page 58 MAKE-UP TIME IS PLAYTIME Schaller, Gill, Lawver. OUCH! WONT YOU EVER LEARN? Emmett Keeler, Sudie Duncan. the pied piper left us... We have heard the Swan Song of the Seniors and assure them, that for the past three years, we have been ardent imitators of their noble principles, their fine leader- ship and their cherished advice. As you follow the Pied Piper into the unknown, we as the weaker brother, will take stock of our assets, and wait until the melodious strains of sweet music call us to follow you. As upper-classmen we have enjoyed the fellowship together and the first feel of leadership. Junior Achievement Day was first of importance, as we were briefed in the set up of many business and educational activities. Selection of class jewelry was next and what a thrill to wear the insignia of our class. Then came the big, big event of the first semester, the Magazine Drive” with the tune of Sell Eleven, Beat '57. It was a huge success and brought many dollars into our coffers. Other smaller projects were likewise successful. Too, the Juniors were prominent figures in all of the school activities, speech, music, athletics and clubs. The second semester brought the Class Play, on the scene which furnished enter- tainment to the public for two evenings. The greatest event of all was the Prom, which upheld all the traditions of the past, and was a most glorious event. We hope the Pica Piper of old will not have to punish us for our misdeeds, but will make life pleasant with his melodious tunes for the coming year. —Judy Null CLASS OFFICERS: Jane Van Thiel, Judy Null (president), Jack Bowermastcr, Ann Kinscl.

That first year we spent most of our time getting acquainted with high school life. In the spring, after we had gotten used to the high school way of doing things, we made our first attempt at an activity of our own: The Valentine SwirL This was quite a successful event and gave us much recognition. On the crest of this wave, we entered into our sophomore year. During this past year wc presented another big dance and chose our class rings. Now we are eagerly awaiting the arrival of our junior year when we will officially be considered upper-classmen. As we look back over our short class history, we are impressed to see how won- derfully the members of our class have worked together. It is our hope that this will continue so that we may always have a school united in spirit as well as in body. —Gary Henry Page 69 Dorothy Adkins Ronald Adkins Norman Akins Bill Alexander Darlene Allen Richard Allen Pat Altman Sue Amlin Neal Amstutz Ed Armstrong Richard Armstrong Bob Ashbaugh Kay Bair Dorothy Barrienger Sylvia Barron Jane Batdorf Ronald Beverly Judy Blair Gerry Blazer Dolly Bowling Peggy Bowman Bobbie Bradshaw Linda Brammer Roger Brandenburg Bob Brashear Lourienia Brewer Ruby Brewer Bruce Bridge John Burns George Buzas a ■HHH O •i ■ O - l.- e V J o p p rv 0 m Ml.j 1 IS u Q % ft Pat Cain Brenda Calahan Gary Campbell Jackie Carroll Jane Carroll James Carroll Cora Caudill Linda Charlton James Clapperton Jim Colgrove Mark Coburn Carol Colombo Freda Coleman Betty Combs Doris Combs June Conley Barbara Conners John Coren Lyle Cottrill Judy Covill Leslie Coy Carol Cox Carl Cox Tom Crawford Richard Croskey Bill Crowl Barbara Crummie Larry Cummins Georgiana Cunningham Douglas Curt Dave Davidson Kenneth Davis Sharon Davis Bill DeCloedt Collenc DeLawdcr Judy Dapore L Yj , ft n O 4Mt ' ■ n o A Adi F ■ V V X 11- n V w V 2 v o «i p B ! 1 Vr fi W a V 8 Q s 'M Dorothy Diedericks Georgia Dillie Tom Doan Harry Donaghy Bill Donnaly Patsy Dunn Jerry Dyer Judy Eden Angela Ehrenfried Travis Elam Carol Ellis Jo Emerick Ronnie Fisher Cynthia Fortune Marie Fouchc Mary Foucher Sally Fugate Herma Gayheart Nancy Glaser Emma Godfrey Lynn Gooseman Patty Green Connie Griffeth Alvena Gross Sandra Gross Robert Hall Joyce Halldorson Doris Hamblin Helen Handwerker Elizibeth Hartman ry ‘ T 9 00 y'f . n £ o' cy 0 i 1 o r V; p 4 A a a -f5 P c t i- O Robert Hart nun Sharon Hayward Carol Haywood Georgia Helmer Edna Helton George Henley Gary Henry Jerry Henry Jo Hensly James Hentrich Jannie Hill Janet Hisey Vicki Hollingshead Barbara Hoover Carolyn Horn Ruby Hoskin Leroy Howard Tracy Howard David Hoy Roger Humphrey Florence Immle Ronald Impson Judy Jerome Roland Johnson Ada Jones Bill Jones Bucky Jones Glenda Jones Loretta Jordan Marinelle Keeney O ) P, £ p —• j I t cs 0 ts i Ah W - ■£ !i CSft F V.

Only the upperclassmen can ever begin to imagine the thrills and excitement we felt as we walked through the doors that first day. It was a day which we shall remem- ber for many years to come. What then seemed like a vast jungle entangled with many students, teachers, and class rooms has turned out to be one of the most important influences in our life. Our days as Freshmen have been filled with fun and laughter along with our work. Many of us have already received honors bestowed upon us by teachers and students. All of us have been accepted and we feel that we are wanted. We wish to express our deepest gratitude for all of this. Our greatest desire for the four years to come is to become as great an inspiration to those who follow us as the upperclassmen have been. We hope to make such a good impression on the numerous students and teachers that the class of 60 will always be remembered. —Elizabeth Smith Pa e 79 Darwin Adams Ernie Adams Bob Adamson Dallas Adkins Judy Adkins Phil Ackerman Jim Allen Lillian Anderson Tim Apple Charles Armstrong Jim Armstrong Nan Augenstein Judy Baldridge Linda Barber Avonella Barker Klydia Barker Barbara Bartels Sally Barton Bill Bos so Robert Bourn Gillian Bayley Fon2ie Beaty Bill Bennett Carolyn Bennett Bill Berry Norma Berry Danny Bentley Joel Benfield Maurita Black Claudette Blaylock 'Nl r - Sa 1 f JP i D 1 A Mi Q r ; csfy dk., 7 1'' ' r a q v f • ; a a j j ... a _c; Karen Birch Barbara Bogner Virginia Bogrees Susan Bolin James Bozarth Marcia Zrackney Phyllis Brashear Bill Bridge Gwen Bright James Brinegar Warren Brown Jim Bruggcman Pam Brun Dan Bryant Linda Bryant Mary Lou Baumgardner Bill Bunn Judy Bunn Hershell Burchett Vicki Burnett Joe Buzas Robin Byrd George Carmen Diana Carroll Joann Carson Michael Carr Mary Chaille Sally Chambers Willie Cherryholmcs Karen Churchill Keith Clark Klydia Clevenger Tunia Collett Sue Collins Laquatta Combs Frank Connelly Cl ■rrmt a n r V lidit, O ■ w • - ; v V 0 9, k rs T - f 2) T- % t f' m a MJ t!'

These inspiring programs are presented monthly through the combined efforts of the speech, music, and art depart- ments. Each of these departments is outstanding in its own realm; but when each works with the others to produce these services, the results arc both amazing and im- pressive. They engrave in our hearts a deeper understanding of God and His Plan for our lives. As we fill the auditorium with our songs of praise, we feel a blending of minds and hearts that comes only through spiritual harmony. The lovely chancel setting, consisting of spreading palms, shining candles, Salman’s Head of Christ,” the cross, and the Holy Bible, only sets the scene. What makes these chapel services truly dear to us is the grand feeling we gain from working together. By this we’ve come to realize that it takes harmony to insure a perfect product.

Students with these qualities can be depended upon to contribute much to the communities in which they live. Fifteen per cent of a class is eligible for member- ship in the local chapter. Five per cent are chosen at the end of the Junior year and ten per cent at the close of the Senior year. It is a big day for all contenders, as they await that eventful hour for pinning. Those pinned at the end of the Junior year are considered active members, and those pinned as Seniors are considered honorary members. To achieve scholastically is a must if college doors are to open to the many who desire further education. Membership in this society is a mighty passport to any intellectual realm that one might care to visit. A beautiful induction service is the highlight of the year, as students dressed in the proverbial robes accept the charges of the organization before the student body and guests. They are presented with the emblem of the club and soon will be genial workers in the field of learning.

They may well be called The Go-Betweens,” for their purpose is to promote better relationships between the students, faculty, and the administration. They do just that, as well as sponsoring many other ventures and pleasantries that make student life so enjoyable. Soon after the closing days of the school year, this group began planning for the coming session, getting hand books compiled and setting up the framework of the orientation program. They met throughout the summer in order to select our varsity and reserve cheerleaders. On the first day of school, we found them ready to extend the hand of welcome to the new and old alike. The Student Council sponsored Howdy Week.” This was a week designed to help the students of Fairborn become one big happy family. The week was climaxed with the mixer dance, highlighted by the appearance of Jolly Rodgers, a popular disk jockey in our area. The dance was greatly enjoyed by all. Football and basketball seasons meant the concession stands and the sale of stadium cushions for the fans. The group also managed the supply shop for the convenience of the students. The school year climaxed with the Honor Banquet, an annual affair at Fairborn. This is held in recognition of scholastic, speech and individual attainments. Truly, the Student Council is one of the most imponant organizations in the school and our thanks go to them for all that they have done to make this year so pleasant.

Throughout the year, this Department, under the direction of Miss Donna Burns, works and per- forms in order to bring honor to Fairborn, as well as the individuals themselves. The National Forensic League is the very core of this department and with and through it, the Speech Department, beginning with the Prince of Peace Contests, reaching to the chapel services and Voice of Democracy Contest, and climaxing with the district and state contests and Speech Play, does much to nurture and shape that harmony which can only be heard in the vibrant and earnest voices of young men and women.

The Bathshcba Rouse chapter of this national organization began its second year as a Fairborn High School Club. Through their activities they proved themselves to be interested in civic affairs as well as thoughts of preparing for their future life's work. The Cancer drive was one of their most important projects; as they joined with other school clubs to help fight this dreaded disease, they showed the understanding, com- passion, and feeling for others that will make them fine teachers in the years that lie ahead. Other projects of the F.T.A. included welcoming the teachers on the first day of school, instituting new chapters, co-sponsoring a Christmas party for the Greene County orphans, and providing a general good feeling between the faculty and the student. Yes, the F.T.A. has done much to raise the standards of Fairborn High School. Thus, again, harmony prevails.

It requires meticulous care and stamina to execute such a task. The greatest handicap that builders face in this project is that of breaking down the traditions that cling so tightly in the hearts and minds of those stu- dents who have no pattern to follow other than mom’s or grandma's yearbook, which contained long prophecies, well-executed wills, fantastic poems and ready wit. These were more personal items, true, but today, we substitute for all of that, the actual happenings in the school life of students, at work and play, which is of interest to more individuals as well as giving to the taxpayer an account of school life in its multiple phases.

In their short time of singing together, this group of juniors and seniors has won the admiration of the school and community for its outstanding performances. The Christmas Concert, consisting of sacred and secular music, was wonderfully pre- sented and received. The choir was organized as a club this year for the first time at Fairborn. Judy Landrum served the group as president, Janet Marshall as custodian, and Linda Kieffer as librarian. Besides the Christmas Concert, they sponsored a bake sale, co-sponsored the appearance of the Ohio State University Men’s Concert Glee Club at our school, and sang for the school's chapel services. We owe much to this fine organization which adds so greatly to the atmosphere of the school.

This year they have sung in chapel and Christmas services, and will participate in spring concerts. This year Jim Tankersly and Dave Hewlett were chosen to represent Fairborn in the All-state High School Chorus, the highlight of the tenth annual International Folk Festival at Wilmington College. The choir members took their places on Sunday afternoon and thrilled music lovers with their rendi- tion of One World.” Throughout the concert, the arrangements of music from different lands provided an international atmosphere. When the choir sang its final number entitled, “These Things Shall Be,” it seemed to everyone that music is without nation- ality, that beauty has no boundaries, and that har- mony of nations needs no longer be only a dream.

It was a very evenly played game which found us on top at the half 7-0. After Beavercreek tied the score in the 3rd quarter, we scored once again in the final quarter in what proved to be the winning touchdown as we won 12-oT The trip to Northridgc proved to be far from successful as we went down in defeat 25-13. Northridgc scored quickly in the first half for all their points. The first half also saw Dave Bruggeman, our co-captain, leave the game with a serious leg injury. Although we held Northridge scoreless in the second half, their early lead was too much as we went to our final defeat. In our first M.V.L. contest we went down 14-0 at the hands of Sidney. Through- out the game the Flyers were plagued with fumblitis as we repeatedly fumbled away numerous scoring opportunities. After Sidney built a 14-0 lead at the half, we battled them on even terms for the remaining two quarters. Page 118 Our second M.V.L. game saw us going down in defeat once again as we were conquered by Piqua 19 6. Once again we were trailing at the half as Piqua enjoyed a 15-0 lead. The only excitement of the game as far as we were concerned was a 56 yard run by Jack Gayheart' which kept us from being shut out again. In our third conference game we were decisively defeated by a very powerful Xenia team. The first quarter saw the in- jury to Jack Gayheart, our quarterback. After scoring several times in the early stages of the game, Xenia went on to win 33-7 in what proved to be our worst defeat of the season. CHALK TALK After four consecutive defeats the Flyers finally found their winning way by im- pressively defeating Greenville 35-12. Fairborn had a decisive advantage as our back- field men repeatedly broke loose for long runs. Jud Dicello also had a successful day as he kicked 5 out of 5 conversions. One of the high spots in every football season is the annual Dad's Night, sponsored by the Student Council. At this game the fathers of all the players are honored by a special ceremony. Jack Bowermaster and his father are pictured at the right. The Flyers gave Troy, the M.V.L Cham- pions, a much harder fight than anticipated, as we lost a very close 26-19 game. At the half it was tied 12-12 and at the end of the third quarter the score was again tied 19-19. It was by far our best game of the season as Troy was ranked very high in the state. QUARTERBACKS: Jack Gayheart, Ben Mosher, Mike Vance. Our game with Miamisburg was a very evenly matched contest which ended in a 13-13 tie. We scored first and enjoyed a 7-0 lead at the half. In the final seconds of the ball game with Miamisburg leading 13-7, Gayheart threty a long desperation pass to Henly, who ran the distance for the tying touchdown. In our final game of the season we were defeated by a very strong Fairmont team 27-12. The main high-light of the game were the long runs by George Henly and Ron Moran, 56 and 66 yards respectively. Although he had only a 2-6-1 record we played excellent ball and the outlook for next year looks very bright, as several let- termen will return.

We arc going to miss these eleven fellows next year because they proved to be a great inspiration to the team. We wish them well in their new fields of interest. GUARDS: Dave Bruggcman and Don Hines. Dave was injured early in the season so he didn’t get to play too much. However, the little he did play proved that he was no novice and won him the position of co-captain.

Under the leadership of our excellent cheerleaders, this group of school- minded young people did a marvelous job of cheering our teams on to victory. They furnished the nucleus of our student cheering section and bolstered the team's morale when things went wrong. This group practiced long and hard and surely deserves our heartiest congratulations for a job well done.

CROWNING OF THE QUEEN By Sudie Duncan and Brad Van Sant Page 124 hail to the queen The culmination of the hopes, desires, and ambitions of any high school senior is to be chosen King and Queen of the Football Arena. It is not only a token of respect and interest, but brings untold glory to those chosen to reign. The beautiful, graceful, and petite Joyce Suiters was the chosen Queen and Dave Bruggeman the heroic King. Because of serious Gridiron injuries, Dave was unable to attend the festivities, but Alfred Wooten served in his place. With a most heavenly star-lit sky, the night was ideal for the traditional crowning of the Queen in all her beauty, surrounded by her courtly maidens: Gloria Gill, Beverly Showalter, Sally Schloss, and Marlene Pack, before a stadium filled with spectators and student best wishers. The memories of a wonderful evening will linger long. KING OF THE GRIDIRON Dave Bruggeman THE QUEEN ON HER THRONE At the Homecoming Dance Page 125 Coach Shrider COACH SHRIDER Coach Shrider hails from Glenford, Ohio, where he received his early academic training and started his college career at Ohio University. Then he went to Ohio State University and the University of Mich- igan, with the honor of lettering in all three schools. Columbia beckoned to him next, and he completed his degree work. He played one year professionally with the New York Knickerbockers, and coached six years at Gallipolis High School before coming to Fairborn last year. His fine education and athletic know-how had made for him an enviable record in his chosen field. Potential athletes can be assured that they can get the finest training if they arc willing to follow the rules. RECORD BREAKING PERFORMANCE Basketball is a game requiring stamina, co-ordination, mental alertness, and know- how. Throughout the summer and fall Coach Shrider's boys worked to improve their shooting eyes and give themselves a headstart on their opponents. This practice paid off, as Fairborn whipped Beavercreek and West Milton to begin the season. Then with two regulars sitting on the bench they beat a strong Wilbert Wright ball club. The)’ emptied the bench to beat Butler and Bryan, and set a new school scoring record when they beat Northridge 89-49. This game, however, was a sad one, as big Brad Van Sant, the Flyers' leading rebounder, sprained his ankle badly. The next game, Tccumseh, was the biggest of the season, with the Flyers and the Arrows sporting an Chalk Talk LEFT TO RIGHT: Jim Smith.

The Fairborn team was handicapped by the loss of their regular center and Tccumseh's star, Dave Zeller, proved too much for them. The following night a rugged Stivers team handed them their second straight loss. But the Flyers rebounded to beat Sidney and Piqua in their first M.V.L. games, holding the Indians' star center scoreless Xenia, coming up next, was too big and too hot for the Flyers, JOHN BAKER It counts more on the inside—Boys!

After edging by Greenville 37-33, the team went to Hobart Arena and lost to Ihe Trojans, who became league champs. This loss seemed to fire up the team, as they beat a very strong Columbus Central team next, and then Miamisburg. They finished the league in a tie for second, playing very well as they beat a tough Fairmont team. The next night the Flyers were stunned by Xenie Woodrow Wilson, shooting a poor 44 for 16 from the foul line. After an un- impressive win over Oakwood, the team prepared for the final tournament. Unluckily they drew a bye, and then came the top-seeded team Tecumseh (who were later to be named champions) It was a heart-breaking loss 42-41. Fairborn played a terrific defensive game, especially Jack Gayheart, who held Tecumseh’s Zeller to the lowest ever, but not sufficient to be a trophy winner. The curtain lowers over a very successful and pleasant season. The Conner Reach Action Shot Sink it Smitty Future Globe Trotters 129 The boys have their interscholastic sports and through them they gain sportsmanlike attitudes in winning and in losing. They make many friends among the other boys they play. Like the major school sports are to the boys, the Girls' Athletic Association is to the girls. The expanding interest in this club is shown through its increased enrollment which has grown from 40 active members of last year to 75 mem- bers this year. Besides becoming able to play their favorite sports well, its members learn the value of true sports- manship. With hard work and the accumulation of 300 points either through interscholastic or intramural participation, a girl, depending upon her grade level, is eligible to receive a freshman certificate, a sophomore medal, a junior letter, or a senior letter with the bars for her number of active years in G.

STUDENT OFFICIALS The whistles blew as the game began. Sev- eral female Flyers worked their best at officiating games. During volleyball season they officiated all of the games and did a good job. They work also in basketball intramurals as well. Officials deserve a great deal of credit. It isn’t an easy job to learn all of the rules of a game and then use that knowledge. It is hard to get all of the calls exactly right. These girls should be commended on a job well done. Carol Mercer Gloria Gill Beverly McMillan YEA TEAM !

We shall have new goals to conquer, new ideas to explore, and new experi- ences to encounter; but, wherever we go, whatever we do, whatever we may become, we will never be without a song. For this song of ours will remain forever a part of our thoughts and way of life. We wish to extress our deep gratitude to Jl who have helped to make this yearbook possible. Especially to the merchants and to the Fairborn Daily Herald for the use of their pictures do we ex- tend our sincere thanks. Page 148 lithographed in U. S. A. by Yearbook How Jack Shuck Marilyn McCoy Emmett Keeler Dave Hinej Marcia Jones Brad Van Sant Jane Greeny Don Lawver our seniors excel in many fields It has been said that the merit of a high school can be determined by the achievements of its students. If this is true, then Fairborn has every reason to be proud of our high school. This year’s senior class alone has brought enough honor and state-wide recognition to prove its worth. Many members of this class have distinguished themselves in the fields of scholarship, music, and athletics to further boost the rating of our school. Jack Shuck received an appointment to West Point; Marilyn McCoy, a scholarship to the University of Chicago; Emmett Keeler, a four-year Mary Jewell scholarship to Rice Institute; Dave Hines, an NROTC scholarship to Yale; Marcia Jones, a GM scholarship to Otterbein College; Brad Van Sant, a presidential appointment to the Air Force Academy at Denver; Mary Jewell, a scholarship to Christ Hospital; Jane Greeny and Don Lawver received the Arion awards, the highest distinction given to high school seniors in the field of music; Mary Esther Johnson received the Central PTA scholarship and also one from Oberlin College; and Tom Conner, a four-year athletic scholarship to Miami University. All these honors are products of the fine training these young people have received in Fairborn schools and in their own homes. The students get the rewards, but the thanks go to those members of the faculty who have given their time and effort to the development of the talents of these fine leaders. Mary Esther Johnson Tom Conner FAIRBORN’S THREE GOVERNORS John Rainbolt — Sudie Duncan — Joe Sheridan This year, for the first time in the history of the YMCA's Youth and Government program, a girl was elected governor of the Ohio Model Legislature held in Colum- bus. This girl was our own Sudie Duncan. What was even more astounding was that she is the third successive governor from Fairborn High School; Joe Sheridan was elected to this post in 1955 and John Rainbolt, in 1956. These three have set quite a precedent and we are very proud of their fine achievements. SENIOR CLAS! CUTEST BEST DANCERS o-nc CLASS WITS PRETTIEST EYES MOST ATHLETIC graduation marks an end .. On May 24, 1957, to the solemn strains of Pomp and Circumstance,” 169 seniors filed silently into Memorial Field House to officially become alumni of Fairborn High School. After the impressive ceremony which shut the door on childhood, these new graduates stepped confidently into the future with a challenge ringing in their ears — the challenge to reach up to higher thoughts, higher aims, and higher deeds. With their motto, ’'Today we fol- low; tomorrow we lead” serving as a faith-filled prophecy, we are confident that the members of the class of 1957 will meet that challenge.

Mosher, D. Morgan, B. Hopkins, J. Gayheart, E. Langston, R. Shade, S. Cook, E. Adkins. B. Mullen, J. Null. “curtain going up” Curtain Going Up,” presented by the Junior Class under the direction of Mrs. Keeler, was an unusual and most enter- taining production. It was a comical story of the presentation of a high school play. Young Miss Burgess, a dramatics teacher (Judy Null), was faced with many problems when she tried to produce her first play. She was troubled with a grouchy janitor (Bill Mullen), a stage-struck heroine (Sally Cook), her bewildered boy- friend (Ben Mosher), and a headstrong campus actor” (Bob Hopkins). In the hectic process of rehearsals she became en- tangled in a jumble of high school romances and, most unex- pected of all, found a romance for herself with the journalism teacher (Jay Collins). Supporting roles were well handled by Jack Gayheart, Edith Langston, Mary Jo Rost, Cece Wal- den, Eleanor Adkins, Dave Morgan, and Lee Davidson. Yeh! What do you want to make of it?” Girls just don’t understand me! ORCHIDS FOR THE DIRECTORS J. Null, Mrs. Keeler (director), I). Morgan, Mrs. Teddards (assistant director). 4 CHARACTER LEADS IN FINDERS CREEPERS” M. Johnson, D. Hines, F. Busthemcycr, M. Smith, B. Williams. “finders creepers” The Speech Department presented one of the grandest and most amusing mystery comedies ever published — Finders Creepers.” Hercules Nelson, played by Dave Hines, and Wilbur Maxwell, por- trayed by Fred Buschemeyer, spent a hectic, mysterious, rib-tickling week-end with Here’s Uncle Bob (Moody Tidwell) and Aunt Mary (Loretta Hcdberg) who ran a funeral home. After the boys found out that there was an extra” guest in the mortuary — Jason T. Quig- ley (Doug Lykins) — who won't stay on his slab, they are ready to head for home — fast! However, the sweet young things, Nina and Celeste (Maxine Smith and Mary Esther Johnson), convince the boys that they should stick around to find out who tried to murder Mr. Quigley (who wasn’t dead at all). The plot thickened and finally was climaxed by one of the wildest finishes ever! Supporting roles were expertly handled by Sally Schloss, Jeri McGuire, Bob Williams, Susan Mescal, Tex Watters, Phyllis Murphy, and Wayne Domigan. Finders Creepers” was directed by Miss Donna Burns and Judy Landrum, student assistant. Why, I'd just as soon walk down Main Street in a bikini bathing suit!” S. Mescal, T. Watters. I wasn't making paper airplanes, Clyde!” S. Schloss, F. Buschemeyer. I tell you, I was poisoned!” D. Hines, F. Buschemeyer, D. Lykins. Howdy!” W. Domigan, P. Murphy. 5 medley of spring sports Certainly the whole world has been made conscious of the interest in sports the past year because of the Olympiad.

Yes, too there is a far off dream that sometime you may win an open, which in the pages of golf is the measure of greatness. Fair and foul weather furnished plenty of handicaps, but the fun and desire of competition more than compensated for all the odds. RESULTS 7 wins 4 losses 1 tie Front row: M. Stapleton, ]. Baker, J.
