CLASS HISTORY In September, 1950, we began the first of our THERESA LYNN KAIL twelve orbital flights under the meticulous guidance of Miss Patterson, presently known as Mrs. Katz. Tessie Elevating us further to our goals were Mrs. Monta- gue, second grade, Mrs. James, third grade: and gggflui 1- 2- 3' 4 Mrs. Pfeiffer who became Mrs. Huebner during Track 1- 2v 3, 4 our fourth year. Our last two years of grade school glass II-'lai 33 4 were memorable ones under Mrs. Lyon and Mrs. Hfdxnqgr lgbnquet 1, 2, 3 Dayfaf- . . . Varsity Club 4 e were quickly led through our Junior High Athletic Club 2, 3, 4 years by Mr. Llnard, seventh grade, and Mrs. Beg- gg FGIELJE 23 34 4 land and Mrs. Virtue, eighth grade. Then we took Gfttes 14 L34 3. 4 our giant step of entering High School. Goal 4 Mr. Brown was given the task of leading us through our first year in high school. Starting our Freshman year we began to earn money for the senior trip which would come after graduation. Our Sophomore year, Mr. Gaume helped us to make the important step of choosing our class rings. Our Junior year was very memorable for all of us. Our home-room teacher, Mr. Larrick, directed our Junior Class Play, A Little Honey. With the help of Mrs, Virtue we successfully gave the Junior-Senior Banquet, with the theme Under the Magnolias. At last we reached our final orbit, the Senior Class. Knowing this was our last year, we tried to make it a good year by working hard. Mr. Padgitt was the conductor of our final orbit. Our Senior Class Play, Nothing But the Truth, was directed again by Mr. Larrick. We were guests of the Junior Class at the Junior-Senior Banquet. The final and moft important event of our last year was the Senior Trip to New York City, being accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. Padgitt. It was the most wonderful experience of our school years. CLASS PROPHECY All aboard for Friendship 1962, flight ii25! As the pilot James McCreery announced over the loud- speaker, Zero minus five minutes until blast-off, I, William Padgitt, boarded the space ship for my journey to Mars. Recognizing a familiar voice telling me to prepare for the launching, I looked up to see the reassuring face of the stewardess, Joyce Lee Kohl. As the rocket lifted off, I could see the American Grand Prix at Sebring where Bill Davis was a professional race driver. Now that I was comfortably on my way, I thought over my last experience on Earth. Since a physical examination was required for my journey, I had gone to the Cape's clinic. When I walked in, I found Joyce Robinson as the receptionist. Looking around, I saw Marlene Miller and Diana Crites working as secretaries under the executive secretary, Paula Peoples. After entering the doctor's office, I noticed Polly Fox and Theresa Kail were employed there as registered nurses. They directed me to Robert Ervin, optometrist, and Philip Garrett, dentist, to complete my examination. Now I was looking ahead to Mars which was drawing nearer and nearer. While waiting to get there, Joyce and I talked about her other classmates. She told me that John Ulrich was working as an account- ant, and Glenn Miller was workirg under him as a junior accountant. She also told me that Homer Helter was a successful merchant. When the ship finally landed on Mars, I said my Hgood-bys to Joyce and Jim. I had heard of the new modern school there, so I decided to go see it. On my way to Lunarville High, I passed Morton's Space Garage, owned by Robert Morrison, head mechanic. Beside his garade I noticed Shull's Barber Shop, owned by Dick Shull. A little farther down the street, I passed Carolyn Baker, a suc- cessful housewife, livirg in her new rocket house. Then I came to the school. Helen Rauzi had come to look at it for ideas to improve Gnadenhutten High. As we entered the gymnasium, we heard the crowds cheering wildly. Bradley Kaiser's Moontown Raiders were battling against David Struchen's Lunarville Lariats for the championship. The noise being too much for me, I decided to get something to eat. I went to the world famous Fellers' Quarter, owned by Bob Fellers, who was also head cook. I saw Linda Gooding sitting there watching a Hoor show, so I decided to join her. She told me that she was the new Home Economics teacher at Lunarville High School, and that Dana Laughlin was the school secretary. Then she informed me that Bob Weingarth, who Was in the carpenter business, had a lot to do with the building of the new school. She added that Mary Jane Wolf, Mars' richest woman, had contributed the money. I left the restaurant and walked toward my homeward-bound spaceship. fifteen
