A. 1,4 School Paper 4 This page sponsored by Vanity Department Store Senior Class History The class of 50 descended upon G. H. S. In the year 1947. Those answering the roll call on the first day were, Robert Drury, Frank Ratliff, Mary Young, Adeline Orzechowski, Donna Spalsbury, Carl Shenberger, Howard Washburn, Jr., Delores Watson, Bureta Dyer, Marian Erbs, Pat Felver, Virginia Tucker, Anna Sutton, Shirley Walter, Donna Barre, Gertrude Leak, Joy Lee Garner, Martha Rice, Marie 3ehuller, Bud Aukerman, Dick Hartley, and Richard Rhine. Mary Beth Bowen Joined our class during the last semester. The first few weeks were spent worrying about Initiation. When the big day finally came, we found ourselves garbed as Gravel Gertie and B. 0. Plenty. In the evening many contests were held, but the outstanding was the beauty con- test In which Delores Watson and Carl Shenberger topped the list. Little else was accomplished that year besides choosing our class officers who were: Pres., Martha Rice; Vice Pres., Bud Aukerman; Sec. and Treas., Virginia Tucker. Rev. Reiser was our class sponsor. The day came when we were no longer Freshmen but big, superior-looking Sophomores. In our sophomore year we lost, Russell Hall, Adeline Orzechowski, Charles Shepherd, Frank Ratliff, Bob Drury, Mary Young, Jr. Washburn, and Bureta Dyer. A great loss came to our class during our sophomore year by the untimely death of Martha Rice. Since our class had dwindled in number, we started making money for the Junior and Senior Prom that we were to give the following year. Oi r largest Income for the year was the money we received from serving at the Legion Games. As is tne custom In G. H. S., the sophomores serve at the Junior ana Senior Banquet and this year was no exception. It was hard work, but we enjoyed every minute of It for we knew that we would be taking the places of the juniors next year. Our class officers for the year were: Pres., Virginia Tucker; Vice Pres., Martha Rice; Sec. and Treas., Mary Beth Bowen. Our class sponsor was Mrs. Schantz. In our junior year the work really began. We had lost still more members leaving a grand total of thirteen. Those among the missing were: Marian Erbs, Delores Watson, Delores Spalsbury, and Marie Schuller. To offset our loss we gained Peg Carey who made up for all the rest dropping out. The first thing accomplished for the year was the election of our officers; Pres., Joy Lee Garner; Vice Pres., Charles Philbrick; Sec. and Treas., Oert Leak. Mrs. Low This page sponsored by Greenwich Delicatessen was our class sponsor. Our main business was determining how much money we would need for the Prom, and operating the candy booth. In October we selected our class rings which. In our estimation, were the best ever obtained by any class of G. H. S. At the end of October we had a theater party, after which we went to Joy Lee’s for refreshments. This was also the month In which we chose our Junior Class Play. The one chosen, was Let Me Grow Up In which Donna Barre had the leading role. Others In the cast were. Peg Carey, Pat Felver, Jinx Tucker, Shirley Walter, Gert Leak, Joy Lee Garner, Bud Aukerman, and Dick Rhine. Mrs. Low and Mr. Hoag directed. The Junior girl chosen by the student body as Business Manager of the Athletic Ass’n., for the year, was Joy Garner. Another highlight In our Junior year was the Junior and Senior Banquet. The auditorium was decorated to represent a garden on an Old Southern Plantation Judy Reynolds was chosen as the Belle of the Ball . The latter part of the evening was spent in dancing to the music of Don Amsden and his orchestra. The Prom ended our social activities and the rest of the year was devoted to studies. We started our senior year with an addition of four members to our class: Wesley Brewer, Dean Shoemaker, Ted Bittner, and Mary Young, we soon lost Mary. After the excltment of the first week was over and things began to settle down to the same routine we elected our class officers: Pres., Peg Carey; Vice Pres. Richard Rhine; Sec. and Treas., Shirley Walter. Class sponsor for the year Is Mrs. Low . In October we motored to Tiffin where we had our pictures taken at Boles-Dandurand Studies. Our class was noted for always Jumping at any suggestions offered. When It was suggested that we might raise enough money to take a trip, we were imme- diately sold on the Idea. Since the Prom of '49 had lowered our bank account, we had about 500 to earn before May 1. In our effort to raise money we have held square dances, bake sales, a card party, a bazaar and have sold greeting cards and other small items. We have held no class parties this year because of our financial difficulties. The play we have chosen this year Is Out of this World . The cast Includes: Donna Barre, Peg Carey, Jinx Tucker, Mary Bowen, Shirley Walter, Gert Leak, Joy Garner, Bud Aukerman, Ted Bittner, Dean Shoemaker, Dick Hartley, and Dick Rhine. Mrs. Low and Pat Felver are directing. Our High School career Is swiftly coming to an end. Commencement will bring to us mingled feelings--a feeling of triumph that we have actually arrived and a feeling of regret that we must soon pass on. —Joy Lee Garner This page sponsored by F. A. Carroll haberdashery We,the Senior Class of Greenwich High School, in the County of Huron and State of Ohio, being of sound mind and memory, do make, publish, and declare this our last Will and Testament: That our divine rights as Seniors shall be given over to the class of 1951. That our extreme impetuosity be transferred to the Sophomores who seem to be a bit cautious. That our average figures and physiques be given to the Freshmen who have quite a number of assorted sizes and shapes. That our ability to see eye to eve in all matters with the faculty be handed down to the next ten classes of Seniors. We, the class of 1950, being very generous, wish to make several personal bequests also: Bud Aukerman leaves his square shoulders to Barton Derby. Dick Hartley, in attaining manhood at graduation, gladly wills his Joyous boyhood days in GHS to all the Freshmen boys. Wesley Brewer, an eloquent speaker, leaves his ability to thoroughly disrupt the English classes to Alfred Oney. Dean Shoemaker wills his height, pretty legs, and curly hair to Donald Ropp. Patricia Felver wills the Editorship of the 1951 OHS Annual to Donajean Pettit. Naturally all of Pat's troubles, headaches, and worries are thrown in on the side. How about it, Donajean, are you willing to accept? Virginia Tucker bequeaths her pleasant. Jovial personality to Ginger Kramer, and her big, soft, brown eyes to DiAnn Logan. Peegy Carey leaves her ability to get along with Ted Bittner to Jacque Brooks and tier ability to talk fast to Carole Keiser. Anna Sutton will gladly exchange her red hair and freckles with Mary Weimer. Donna Barre wills her weight and height to Elolse Ebinger. Joy Lee Garner, with the consent of her parents, wills the Garner Cadillac to Joanne Shoemaker as a means of getting around in case her horse is lame. Oert Leak leaves her ability to get along with the males to Jane Harmon. Shirley Walter, a friend to everyone, leaves her soft voice and placid manner to Veloice Rhodes. Mary Beth Bowen, discovering her dormant talent in voice as proved by the Senior play, decided to share some of it with Tillie Fry. Chuck Philbrlck wills the use of his horse to Mike Carey in the hopes that Mike can get to school on time in the future. Richard Rhine bequeathes his well-used chewing gum to Mrs. Schantz. In fact, he is more than glad to leave a piece of gum for every faculty member. Ted Bittner doesn't have anything in particular that he wants to will, so he is consenting to give FREE lessons to all underclassmen. The lessons will be on his own technique with the women--specializing in jujitsu.

It was from Dick Hartley who Is raising cattle on one of his large ranches In the West. Saturday nights are the big nights In Dick's life. He attends the big square dances. Oh, how he loves to swing those western galslll He was In Kentucky recently and happened to run Into Joy. She and her family are living at Fort Knox in a trailer. It's a bit crowded as there are five of them now, but Joy doesn't mind. Don always did say, The more the merrier. And poor Richard Rhine I You know how slow he always was. The other day he started out for the barn to milk the cows and when he finally reached It, the cows had already been milked and were singing, Show Him the V ay To Go Home. Do you remember that trip we took to Washington D. C. In 1950? Wesley Is still missing. I think he got lost In the Capitol. Pat Larry's Cozy Trailer Camp, located at 31 Peach Street, Greenwich Is open day and night. If you ever travel through Greenwich, Why not drop in? Dean Shoemaker has Just accepted his new position as Mayor of Greenwich. He had to perform a wedding ceremony the other morning at 3 A. M. and guess who It was, a couple of our old classmates, Gert Leak and Bud Aukerman. The Drivers Training Dept, at GHS has Just purchased a new 1960 Ford and hired a new teacher. Professor Theadore J. Bittner. I wonder why a certain Junior Girl never got her Drivers Training Certificate. Anna Sutton and Mary Bowen have a large dog kennel Just outside Greenwich. Anna likes Boxers and Mary Beth goes in for wolves. I went to the Rlngllng Bros. Circus the other day and who should I see fly- ing by but Shirley Walter. At the present time she Is being shot from a can- non. Before this she was a tight rope walker and a trapeze artist. Chuck Phllbrick will be In Norwalk next week at the fair. You'll see him In Daredevil acts. He's one of Ward Beams Hell Drivers” or vice-versa. Jinx Tucker took her beauty course. The big question Is Which Grafflce twin has the Toni? She has a time keeping her basketball team In crew cuts. Peggy Carey, such a hit In our class play. Is now dean of Vassar, and a mem- ber of the United Nations Assembly.

They have already flagged down three trains. As secretary of the Greenwich High School Alumni, I wish to extend a cordial invitation to the Class of 1950 to attend our annual Alumni Banquet this year.

H. S. In 1947 with a class of forty students. The highlight of the year was our Initiation. Such agonies as we endured 1 The following year as sophomores we spent most of the time In becoming deeply absorbed In our school affairs. Now as a class of twenty-six Juniors we have successfully presented our class play, Quiet Everybody on November 11, 1949 with a cast of fifteen members. Our directors were Mrs. Schantz and Mrs. Low. Very conveniently, our class rings arrived two days before we presented our play. During the past three years we have held bake sales, sold refreshments for various entertainments, established a high school paper, and at the present time the Juniors, (as has been the custom), are operating the candy booth. We also are planning a musical program In March. We held our first class party after our play. Everyone was just a little bit tired, but we spent the evening In having pictures of the cast taken, enjoying refreshments, singing, and listening to the quartet. On December 23, 1949, we held a combined Christmas dance and party which was very successful. The typing room was decorated In the Christmas spirit, dancing to the accompaniment of records was the main feature. Later In the evening we enjeyed refreshments. At the present time our class has lost: Margaret Murry, Betty Hale, Mabel Britton, Francis Britton, Junior Washburn, Earl Black, Irene Enzor, Ted Collins, Jim GraffIce, Lois Miller Teats, Mary Carey, Alice Tucker, Wanda Adams, and Donald Ray. We gained: Tillle Fry, Jane Harmon, Fritz Raltch. The juniors are represented on the basketball team by the following: Amel Blair, Bob Gorham, and Kyle eysor on the Varsity; Norman Enzor, Earl Griffin, and Roger June on the Reserves. At the beginning of basketball season, when the cheerleaders were chosen, the following four Juniors received the honor; Joanne Shoemaker, Tillle Fry, Julia Predleri, and June Wolfe. This year's officers are Pres.--Judy Hoffman, V-Pre8.—Julia Predleri, Sec.—Alice Morrow, Treas.--Carole Kelser, We are now looking forward to cur Junior-Senior Prom, In honor of the departing Seniors. On behalf of the Junior Class we extend our best wishes to the Senior Class. _ . ...... —Donajean Pettit This page sponsored by Simmon's Cut-Rate Drug Store Bernice Helwig President Sophomore Class Charles !4ay V.President ry A- Walker Blrk Spalsbury Evans Pallor S Carey Brown Oney Schuller Plgley Snapp Dunn Keysor Kramer W.

Since we have also gained three members, we are still he largest class In Greenwich High. As should be the case in a l«arge class, we are wexx-represented in all activities. Nine of our members play in the band, two are major- ettes, eleven sing in the glee clubs and fourteen are in the mixed chor- us . Sophomores are not lacking in athletic ability. Dunn and Schantz are on the varsity basketball squad, and on the reserve are McLaughlin, Brown, and Shafer. Bill Schuller is team manager. In baseball—Dunn, Shafer, Lykins, McLaughlin, Brown, Schantz, and Fast promise good teams for the future. ¥ On the annual staff Bernice Helwlg is Sophomore editor and Jim Schantz is photographer. Our social activities have been quite limited. In the freshmen year our big affair was, of course, our initiation by the seniors. Early this year we enjoyed a hayride to the home of Barbara Kramer, There, under a magnificent display of northern lights, in the shadow of a haunted barn, we devoured huge quantities of cider and weiners. The ride home in the horse-drawn trailor, driven by George Moss was the most enjoyable part of the evening. On March 17, we held a skating party in Mansfield. Including guests, there were about twenty-five present. Mrs. Ehzor acted as chaperone. Our first attempt at making money was at the Fireman's Ball in October, when our class had the refreshment concession. The class officers this year are; president, Bernice Helwig; vice- president, Charles May; secretary, Robert Lykins; treasurer, Jim Schantz. —Bernice Helwig.

H. S. a most unusual group of new students. Faculty and student body noticed with approval the diligence and determination with which the class of 1953 settled down to a new routine of school work. To this outstanding group East Greenwich sent Mary Angel, Qlen Boardman, Howard Qraffice, Harold Haynes, Harold McDougal, Mitchel Oney, Donald Ropp, and Doris Stewart. Ripley Township gave us Dean and Joan Beck, Roberta Dyer, Darlene Ebinger, Mary Leak, Georgann Lusher, Raymond Lykins, Tony Predieri, Richard Moser and Edward White. The local school added Doris and Dorothy Francis, Bernice Hale, Kaye Hans, Charles Hawkins, Grace Nead, Charlene Ratliff David Stevens, and Marlene Westbrook, Wanda Wittebort came to us from Morgan- town, West Virginia. Ruby Hancher, from Circleville, Ohio. Our initiation by the seniors into the fellowship of G. H. S. was perhaps the most grueling to which any class has ever submitted. Our girls were oos- tumed as Indian squaws, and on their backs they carried papooses in half-bushel baskets. Very brief dresses exposed the bony knees of the boys, feathers dec- orated their scalp locks, and heavy socks were their only footwear. The very cool day added nothing to our comfort, but we endured our torture without com- plaint. Our great courage gained for us the approval of the noble seniors, who treated us after the evening session. We have proved our loyalty to G.H.S. by engaging in its various activitiea Our boys are well represented in sports, both basketball and baseball. In the music departments, our members are doing cheir best in band, orchestra, glee clubs and chorus. Our girls all belong to F. H. A. and to the Fresh Fifteen English Club. Our officers this year are: President, Dick Moser; Vice President, Bemioe Hale; Treasurer, Charles Hawkins; Secretary, Wanda Wittebort; Assistant Secre- taries, Dean and Joan Beck. We’ve made new friends in high school; we’ve developed class spirit and school loyalty. We look forward to our sophomore year, but we will never for- get our freshman year at G. H.

They set about to accomplish this. With the aid of Mrs. Low and r. Hoag their final successful result was Memories of 1949 . The staff of Keepsakes of 1950 has tried to follow the trail they blazed in '49 and hopes that this publication is as big a success as last year's. Although words cannot fully express cur gratitude to those who have made this annual possible, we wish to take this opportunity of showing our appreciation.

Another display was exhibited at the V.’il- Sard United Eank at Greenwich. ihls display consisted of dresses, sport shirts, handwork, such as handkerchief, canned foods, and cakes.

On the 23rd we played Monroeville In a fast moving game, but lost 45 to 35. We won our first game on Nov. 29 from Townsend with a score of 27 to 22. On Dec. 2 we Journeyed to St. Mary's of Lorain where we met defeat 50 to 25. Dec. 9 we traveled to New Haven and were trounced 56 to 26. The boys tried, but all of the odds were against them. On Dec. 10 we redeemed ourselves by winning from Nova 31 to 21. The game turned out to be quite rough and there was a good deal of misunderstanding on the part of both teams. We surprised everyone on Dec. 16 by giving Wakeman a hard fight and although we lost 50 to 42, everyone was In high spirits. The boys certainly put everything they had Into the game. The next two games, with New Washington and St. Paul of Norwalk were both bad defeats for G.K.S. We opened the new year with a much better record by defeating N.Fairfield 34 to 30, on Jan. 6. Then, Jan. 13, we journeyed to Wakeman to be defeated 56 to 30. St. Mary's return game was not as encouraging to us as the 1st one—we lost again, 61 to 42. The boys perked up enough though, to defeat Townsend,there on Jan. 20, 45 to 34; following this, we were defeated by Savannah 40 to 36. On Jan. 24, we played the Alumni and lost 32 to 25, but we certainly gave those old-timers a good fight. Feb. 3 we traveled to New London for a rather unusual defeat of 65 to 51. In this game, Greenwich scored 24 field goals and succeeded In having 31 fouls called on them; while New London made 23 field goals and had only 5 fouls called. Feb. 4 we once more won from Nova 53 to 41. Our worst de- feat of the year came on Feb. 10 when we played New Haven here with a score of 70 to 37. On Feb. 11, the fellows really put on a show against Sullivan when they took the game by a basket that was in the air just as the whistle blew— score 50 to 48. Our last game of the season with N.Fairfield ended In a 57-39 victory for Greenwich. We met New London at Norwalk for our one and only game of the Tournament on Feb. 21 for a 67 to 46 loss; thereby ending the '49-50 Ba3ket-ball season for G.H.S. Four of our fellows, Jim Schantz and Arnel Blair (Green Team) and Bernard Dunn and Bob Gorham (White Team) were chosen to play in the All Star game on Feb. 25—the Green Team was victorious. —Judy Hoffman This page sponsored by Checker Inn B a s e b a II Back row: Coach Low, Predierl, Schantz, Fast, McLaughlin, Shafer, Enzor, Beck, Griffin, Hawklna, Brown Front row: Philbrick, Blair, Aukerman, Keyaor, Dunn, Hartley, Lykens, Moser, Gorham Greenwich's big nine started their '49-50 season with quite a back record. The boys, as county champs last spring, went on to the district tournament where they beat Milan and lost to Woodville. On Sept. 20, we opened the '49-50 season by trouncing Savannah 12 to 2; on the 23rd we lost a thriller to Monroe- ville, 8 to 6. We traveled to New Haven on the 27th to be defeated 4 to 0 and then on to Wakernan for a 7 to 3 loss. In Oct. we rallied long enough to tie Sullivan up 3 to 3 at the end of 3 innings when the game had to be called be- cause of rain. Journeying to Monroeville, we met defeat 7 to 5. Our last game In the fall with N.Fairfield turned into a 5 to 3 victory for Greenwich. With 2 wins, 1 tie, and 4 losses, we look on to the spring of '50 with great hopes and much enthusiasm.
