Senior Facts The class of 1952 b egan high school in 1948 with thirty-six members. The highlight of their year was initiation, November Sth. With the help of Mr. Max Mitchell, the class sponsor, they elected as class president, Richard Chapin; as vice-president, Bob Burch; secretary-treasurer, Arden Berry; Phyllis Beams and Jack Sprague, Student Council. As sophomores, they took great pleasure in helping the freshmen into high school. Tw o members were gained, Judy Myers and Jack Lantz, but they also lost three classmates, Lucille Birchfield, Helen Smith and Bill Wilcox. Class officers for 1949-5 were: Arden Berry, president; Bob Burch, vice presi- dent; Julee Mitchell, secretary-treasurer. Phyllis Beams and Les Peeler capably represented the class on the Student Council. Mrs. Marion Clark was faculty advisor. After becoming sophomores the class of ' 52 made itself known by taking an active part in all school activities. Most outstanding were Blaine Harding, Richard Chapin and Perry Stauffer who were chosen to play varsity basketball. Probably Fremont high school ' s jolliest junior class, they started the 195 0-51 term with thirty- two members including two new arrivals, Bob Tober and Bill Palmerton. During the course of the year, however, they lost Abbie Pansier, Donna Antrup and Anne Johnson. As officers they elected Blaine Harding, president; Jack Sprague, vice-president; Jim Gary, secretary-treasurer; Student Council mem- bers, Joyce Lomont and Bob Tober. Judy Myers and Joyce Lomont managed the canteens with Anna Champion and Mona Triplett as assistants. The outstanding events of the year were: the magazine sub- scription drive; the selection of class rings; their first formal dance; the junior-senior banquet; and the exceptionally successful presentation of the class play, which was directed by Mr. G. W. Moreland. The fall of 1951 found a slightly depleted senior class starting the final term. There were two new members, Nancy Lacey and Carol Huffer, but Bob Tober and Les Peeler were no longer with the class. During the year, the seniors lost Carol Huffer and Joann Chapin. Mr. J. L. Mertz was elected class sponsor with Phyllis Beams, president; vice-president. Bill Snyder; secretary-treasurer, Judy My- ers; Sharon Weigle and Roger FoUett, Student Council. In between money-raising events, the seniors managed to produce a class play; publish the Vistula ; and print the Tatler . Most of the year ' s activities, though, were centered around making money for the proposed class trip. Some of the seniors were rather glad to leave, others would, perhaps, have liked to say awhile longer. But all of them looked back with pleasure at the things done well, with regret at things done poorly, and with sincere relief at having finished one phase of life. a € a % I Top Row: Peggy Taylor, Janet Mounts, Ann Hadle) ' , Delores Schaeffer, Nancy Keith, Cecil Cobum.

They chose as class president, Graham Sellers; as vice-president, Joyce Booth; secretary-treasurer, Janis Baird; Student Council, Ann Hadley; and Mr. Richard Latier was elected class sponsor. After being officially welcomed into high school by way of the usual initiation, they settled down to an interesting if incon- spicuous, first year. When the class returned to school as sophomores, they had lost six of their number but had gained one new classmate, Beverly Leas. Class officers for 1950-51 were: President, Peggy Taylor; vice-president, Beverly Leas; secretan,-treasurer, Don Meeks; Student Council, Joyce Booth and John Gar). The sponsor was Miss Doris Davis. The class began taking an enthusiastic part in high school affairs. Two of their num- ber, Janis Baird and Beverly Leas represented them as varsity cheer-leaders. As juniors, they were in charge of the canteens with Peggy Taylor and Ann Hadley as managers; Joyce Booth, Janis Baird and Nancy Kinsey as assistants. Class executives were Don Meeks, president; vice-president, Nancy Kinsey; secretar --trea- surer, Joyce Booth; Janis Baird and Cecil Appleman, Student Council. Probably the most outstanding events of their 1951-52 term were the class play, directed by Mrs. Mariellen Pettr -, and the magazine sales campaign. The latter brought recognition from the Curtis Circulation Company for an unusually successful and profitable drive.

Freshman Briefs The freshman class of 195 5 got their first ghmpse of life at Fremont high school in the fall of 1951. Not too many days after, they were duly initiated by the sopho- mores and elected the class officers. Mrs. Jessie Mynatt was chosen as class sponsor, lamoine bressler was elected president; david harding, vice-president; gloria kay michael, secretary-treasurer; and betty gary and skip luke, Student Council. All members of the class were very active in high school affairs including band, chorus, F.F.A., F.H.A., basketball, baseball and track. In the future, the class of 195 5 will be a definite asset to the high school. 1. From Adam ' s Evening : J. Sprague, P. Stauffer, B. Snyder, M. Triplett, J. Lomont, G. Falka 2. Operetta Lineup 3.

Student Council Capable Representative One of the many outstanding features of the 1951-52 school year was the Student Council. This was an organization made up of two representatives from each high school class and an advisor. The object of the group was to bring about a closer relationship between the teachers and pupils, present the problems of the students to the faculty, and to plan programs for the student body throughout the school year.

These lines are part of the creed of the Future Farme rs of America. Future Farmers Homemakers of America We are the Future Homemakers of America. We face the future with warm courage and high hope. For we have the clear consciousness of seeking old and precious values. For we are builders of homes, for America ' s future. Homes where living will be the expression of everything that is good and fair. Homes where truth and love and security and faith will be realities, not dreams.

Under John Long ' s direction, the band moved through enough intricate maneuvers to win second place in the Auburn marching contest. There were sixteen Frem ont entrants in the district solo elimin- ations, of which two went on to the state contest: Don Meeks, saxaphone and Jo Ann Taylor, clarinet. They placed second. Don Meeks was elected president; Rosemary Mitchell, vice-president; Janis Baird, secretary; De- Wayne Schaeffer, treasurer; and Jo Ann Taylor, hbrarian.

COACH DAVIS Maurice Davis came to Fremont in 1946, fresh out of Ball State College, to begin his chosen career of coaching. His firy spirit soon caught on and soon Fremont was producing powerful teams. In six years Coach Davis has been at Fremont his teams have won 97 and lost 43. Among these victories are five county championships, a corner conference championship and four blind tourney championships. MAURICE DAVIS Fremont. Indiana; B. S. Ball State Teachers ' College.

Mertz, Compliments Of KEYES BARBER SHOP RICHARD CHAPIN (Senior) Dick ' s third year on the Eagle Varsity was his most successful one. He was one of the Kingpins in Coach Davis ' plan. His fighting spirit will be missed by future squads. JERRY CRAWFORD {Senior) Jerry ' s first full year on the Varsity proved valu- able to the Eagles as his height helped him to snare many important rebounds. DALE DEEMER {Senior) Another big boy, Dale didn ' t see too much action, but could be counted on to give his best when called upon. JOHN DOVE {Sophomore) John ' s first year at Fremont placed him on a county championship team. Sparrow ought to bring great things to the future Eagle teams. ROGER FOLLETT {Senior) Roger moved up to the varsity mid-way last year and earned a starting position on this year ' s County Champs. One of the Eagles most valuable rebound- ers and always a scoring threat. JOHN GARY {junior) John was the only Junior to make the varsity and should be the nucleous of next year ' s team. His re- bounding and scoring eased many a tight ball games. BLAINE HARDING {Senior) Another 3 yr. man, Blaine ' s precision shooting was always counted upon. Always among the top Eagle scorers, Blaine will be missed by the future teams. JACK LANTZ {Senior) Jack was a capable reserve who didn ' t see too much action but was tops when it came to team play. WILLIAM SNYDER {Senior) Bill ' s second year on the Varsity earned him a starting position. He was a defensive rebounder and a good scorer. He will be hard to replace in fu- ture team.s. RICHARD SNYDER {Sophomore) Dick alternated between first and second team ball this year. He will be counted upon for back court duties in the future years. JACK SPRAGUE {Senior) Although Jack didn ' t see too much action he was one of the team ' s best boost ers. PERRY STAUFFER {Senior) Perry ' s third year on the varsity, he saw regular action much of the time. A good passer and a good team man Perry will be missed by future teams.

Reserves This year ' s Reserve team was one of the best in the history of the school as they won the County Championship, the Corner Conf. Championship and the Oil Can, rov- ing county trophy and ended the season with a 18-2 record. Many of this year ' s Re- serves will see action on next year ' s varsity, but the 1952-5 3 Reserve team should be back stronger than ever. The County Championship won by this year ' s team was the first in the history of the school.

In their second meet of the season the Eagles fared a little better as they defeated Shipshewana by a lopsided 69-31 tally. Waterloo was Fremont ' s next victim to the tune of 78-37. Auburn displayed its prowess over the Eagles by a 79-37 at Carr Field, where the County Tourney was to be held later that year. Or- land was next on the Thinley clads list of victims as Oyler set a new school 440 record with a run of 56.2 time, and the Eagles went home with a 79-3 8 win. In the final re- gular meet of the season Butler won over the Eagles 60-49. The Thinly Clads ended the regular season with a 3 won and 3 lost record. The County Tourney held at Carr Field at Auburn, with Hamilton the defending champions. The Eagles won first in all running events, both hurdle races, and the pole vault to win the meet and become new county champs. The Corner Conference Track Meet was next and Butler, the defend- ing champion was back as strong as ever, going to the last event, the mile relay, Fre- mont needed only a first to tie the Butler squad but failed to get the needed points and had to be contented with second place. Compliments Of B. L. STRICKLER Cross Country Among Best The Sectional Track Meet was held at Elkhart, and Fremont was very fortunate in placing 3 men to go on to the Regional the following Saturday, these being Jesse James in the mile, which he placed second in the Sectional, Dick Snyder in the half mile, as he placed fourth in his event, and George Baird in the pole vault and high hurdles. Baird was the only one to go on from the Regional to the state finals, and in the state finals he made a very fine showing tieing for fifth place in the pole vault. It was the first time anyone from Fremont has placed in the state meet. -f , FRED JAMES BACK ItOW: Bob Burch, Jack .Sprague, Wendell Burke, Fred James, Bruce Foster, Jerry Crawford, Larry Penner, Jim Gary, John Gary, Grover Oyler. FRONT ROW: Maurice Davis, Jay Mertz, Harry Kelley, Max Mitchell. Cross-Country was new at Fremont this year and having no course on which to run all the meets were away from home. The Eagles turned in some very good times the best by Fred James, 9:5 8, which now stands as the school record. Fred also competed in the Cross Country Regional and earned a right to go on to the state finals as he finished second, ahead of some very polished runners from some of the bigger schools in the area. The Cross-Country team as a whole is to be congratulated on their fine showing at all meets and their fine sportsmanship through out the season.

Letterman s Club The Fremont Letterman ' s Club is composed of those boys who have seen enough varsity action in any sport to earn a letter, and is one of the many organizations which make up our school life. Blaine Harding was elected president of the club, with Bill Snyder vice-president and Jack Lantz as secretary ' and treasurer. Many new members were brought into the club this year, and all of them did their part to make the club a success. Complimenh Of DOVE ' S BAKERY High School Autographs 1K««WI«I 9mf ,01 — -7- Ur .

Grade Team Cops County Title The Fremont Junior High compiled an impressive 20 wins against but 2 losses this season to give Max Mitchell another fine year of coaching. They won the County Championship, playing some of the better ball of the sea- son. They were then idle until they closed the season with another victory, this time over the strong St. Jude team from Fort Wayne. Eighth grade boys on the team were: Ronnie Beams, Phil Gay, Terry Palmerton, Ned Snyder, Jim Myers, Gordon Kuntz, Robert McMurray, LeRoy Siegel, Jim Booth and Bernard Rose. These boys will go into building another successful Eagle team of next year. The grade team next year will be built around little Vernie Bressler, Jim Langley, and Alan Sidel. Congratulations to Mr. Mitchell and his boys for another outstanding season. Grade Track The grade track team had but two meets last year, but made a fine showing. This year they can look forward to an extended season now that the new track is finished.
