There were other hob- bies as well, not the least of which was girl -watching; of course, not too many fe- males took part in this plea- surable pastime but they were quite satisfied with ogl- ing all the handsome guys. Many students held jobs in or der to put a little extra money in the pocket or to meet a myriad of pressing expenses. Examples of kids occupied by occupations when not in school were Stan Kola- kowski, who was a ski in- structor at Mt. Wawasee, and Ruth Meredith, who was employed at G, L. Perry ' s in Goshen. One of the big fads this year- especially for some juniors and seniors on Special Stu- dent Statis--was playing pin- ball.

In 1834 early settlers from New Paris met in a building like this to get an education. Later it was moved in town, where the drug store now stands. The only schools that most people would prob- ably remember are the old grade school where the Par- isian Apartments now stand. Located on U. S. 6 some of the kids went to Bethany to further their education. Stu- dents went to New Paris High School for the last time be- fore coming to Fairfield High School. New Paris Grade School as it appeared in 1950. 16 Bic entennial The first school house in Millersburg furnished places for social and other assembles, where the preacher might deliver the gospel message. It was a log house built in 1855, 1 1 2 miles northwest of town. In 1866 a larger school was built. By 1890 the school was in poor re- pair and yet another one was built. For a few years the school closed because of lack of interest. In 1900 if a student wanted to go to high school he or she had to take a one -coach train to Goshen. The main part of the present Millers- burg building was built in 1914. The kitchen and caf- eteria were added in 1952. At the present time the school board and community are considering replacing the Millersburg building. 4|  - - « ' The Millersburg School as it stoo d in 1855. 17 Bicentennial 18 Organizations 19 Organizations Convocations for Students.

Being in school was nine months out of the year but the Bi -Cen- tennial was just one year out of a life time chance for us to be Getting Into The Spirit. 65 Education Centering in on Your Career The area vocational school program was a cooperative venture between West Noble, Wawasee and Fairfield high schools. The program pro- vided the students with an opportunity to enlarge their curriculumn choice by per- mitting the student to take vocational classes at any of the three schools. Also, students could enroll in special classes at either the Wawasee or Elkhart career centers, providing they were a junior or senior in high school. Students had to provide their own trans- portation, and the classes met everyday for half a day, in the morning or the after- noon. Some of the courses offered were cosmetology, restaurant management, computer programming, and horticulture. Some Fairfield students who attended classes at the centers included Lavern Nissley, Harry Goodman, and Earl Keim. Makes Big Plans.

The industrial arts teachers at Fair- field this year were Mr. Rickard and Mr. Auker. In auto mechanics class, students did actual repair work on their own cars, some of the teachers ' cars and even the automobiles of certain members of the community. In electronics and woodworking, stu- dents learned the basic fundamentals of these two fields, developing the talents necessary for the electrician and carpenter work.

Fairfield ' s mechanical draw- ing teacher was Mr. Rickard. This class was a basic course in graphic illustration which prepared students planning on taking future courses in drafting like architectural and machine drafting. Areas included in the course were sketching, printing, drawing, dimensioning, pictorials, working drawings, and blue - pring reading. In vo. ag. I, which was of- fered to freshmen, sopho- mores, and juniors, the stu- dent could gain meaningful experience in careers related to or involved in agriculture. The ag. II student gained basic knowledge in soil man- agement, crop production, livestock production, and the proper use of shop tools. For boys only? Being the only girl in Mechanical Drawing class doesn ' t seem to bother Donna Black very much. Painting and Painting and Painting. Painting seems to be one of those endless jobs made possi ble in Ag. Class. Paul O ' Biyant, Biff Lantzer and Jim Bitting seem to be enjoying it very much. 70 Mechanical Drawing Lots of erasing.

Mrs, Hughes and Mrs. Metzler were the business teachers this year at Fair- field. For those students --pre- dominantly girls --interested in pursuing a secretarial ca - reer, they had the opportuni- ty to take a shorthand class, in which they could learn the speedy method of taking dic- tation. Courses in general business showed the students sensible ways in which to manage their money, delineating the importance of a budget and planned parenthood. Mean- while, bookkeeping educated the student on how to keep financial records straight among other things. . Not $35 off again !

Courses offered in this alien tongue were Spanish I and Spanish II. The other language, German was taught by Mr. Miller. As with Spanish two levels of Deutsch were offered: German I and German II. German I was an introduction to the language and some of its less difficult facets, while German II progressed into the harder dialect. El espanol es facil, iverdad? Spanish verbs and adjectives are not easy. Working at the board seems to help Maria Thomas, Elaine Anderson, and Diana Rorabaugh. 79 German Get the point?

The historical side of the coin included the classes world studies Amer- ican studies and government. Economics, values and is- sues, sociology and library science were also an integral part of the humanities pro- gram.

The English courses which composes the humanities department included comm- unications, world studies En glish, American studies English and college English. The instructors were Mr. Harvey, Mrs. Craven and Mr. Miller. In communications a major goal was to improve the writ- ten and spoken communications of the students.

College English was a pre- paratory course for CoUege- Ijound students in which the main considerations were on writing and on improving composition skills. Each student was- required to complete eight book critiques and deliver a formal (?) pre- sentation in front of class dealing with mythology. He ' ll get mad at us if we do that! Working in pairs seemed to make the work easier in Mr. Harvey ' s English class. Dave Holmes and Wesley Drudge use their time wisely.

A New Home for 7th Graders In their first year at Fairfield, the 7th graders were involved in many activities. They held two class parties and helped out a great deal in the Drama Club, In this club they either kept busy with backstage work (props and lights) or found themselves in acting roles.

Much of the juniors ' time was spent in planning for the 1975-76 Prom that took place in May. This involved selecting a theme, a location, a movie, a band and --as if all that weren ' t enough -- the appropriate decorations. Furthermore, a caterer had to be decided upon to provide food for the momentous occasion. Choosing each of these things meant endless voting. Most of this business was officially con- ducted during class meetings held several times each month at the end of the end of the school day. Prom Places Heavy Burden on Juniors.

The couples were treated to goodies like Swiss steak, chicken, mashed po- tatoes, and gravy. Then it was on to the elabora- rately decorated FHS gym- nasium for three hours of dancing and shaking, with the Magi group providing plenty of music. Afterward, everyone was off to the Concord Cinema to view THE RETURN OF THE PINK PANTHER starring Peter Sellers. Finally, as the morning sun was steadily gaining on the eastern horizon, those stu- dents who couldn ' t find the energy for a trip to the dunes simply went hom e to a very comfortable bed. Feelings of Love. A special date. Many teachers and their husbands or wives came to the prom. Only a few of them ended up dancing though. May 14 at 6:30. The prom banquet was held at Das Dutchman Essen Haus and the dance started at around 9:00 in the Fairfield gym. Prom royalty !

Knowing you may never see your classmates, sponsors, or underclass friends again, it all can be sad. Leaving school made us all wonder, and question the future but we also realized we could do anything if we worked hard enough for it then all we needed to do was pray for help.

Some of the kids had some embarras- sing moments like: Cheryl Miller and Janell Whitehead fell down the steps in a church for a Swing Choir performance and Cheryl ' s heel fell off of her shoe. Tammy Nisley ripped her pants as a guest at a roller skating party with pep band. Jennie Wiles always ended up on the floor during Bas- ketball games because the Senior girls pushed her off the bleachers. Annette Pfiester acted like she fainted in the hallway and some people stood there almost scared stiff until Annette got up laughing.

After the weeks of excitement and many long hours, the time finally came. We made our last minute touches and as soon as we knew it, it was time! We were on our way and the Fairfield High School Prom had begun. Little did the Seniors think it was their last prom until it was all over. It didn ' t make that much difference before. We were together . . . enjoying and laughing. Stabler, Deborah Sue (Smith) - Choir 1; Intramuials 1; Pep Club 1; SSS 1,2 Snider, David Leon - Boys Booster 1, 2,3,4; FFA 1,2,3,4; Intramurals 2 ,3 . 4.

Our minds were filled with confusion, loneliness, happiness, and sadness. Was it that bad or will we recall the good times and lasting friendships? As we turned our tassels, we suddenly realized that it was now time for each of us to de- cide how we would start our new way of life. Class of ' 76. The last time together is always the hardest. Being together and saying goodbye left a few tears but the memories went with us. ■ jim • tid ' -. ' •.•- - ' - -. ' ' ' ]  s ' .4 ' '  . ■ - jt mS ii 1 m Singing Seniors. Forty five seniors got together and practiced for Com- mencement. They shared with the rest of the class many words through songs. 130 Graduation First time in Fairfield ' s history. John Brademas spoke abovtt the value and importance of education at gradua- tion. It helped us to apply it to our own lives. Taking one step forward. Senior sponsors showed they really cared by helping the class all through their school days. The seniors walk farther away from school days but the spon- sors will always stay close to us. .-- IBP 1 We shall go out with Joy . . . Twelve years of school will always be remembered by the joy in our heart Jonel Rarick expressed to the seniors of the joy brought to her life. And be led forth . . . Another one of the co-valedictorians, Linda Eve- rest, challenged to the class new ways as we would be led forth. In Peace. Lavern Nissley has the peace in his heart he needs as he gives his speech before he walks out the door into new hopes and dreams. 131 Graduation 132 Finances Financing is a major part of the yearbook.
