Hanover Indiana University Indiana State Teachers College Ohio State University Principal, Science Our Principal Speaks One of the great, if not the greatest, responsibility of our schools today is that of character education. There was a time when the home rendered this service to society. g Time has found many changes in the past few years, and many children today do not have that home environment which taught kindness, thoughtfulness, thrifti- ness, loyalty, and reverence. They are kicked or left out in a scramble to survive. It is the duty of every teacher to spend some time in their organized classes to teach all children those things pertaining to good character and the value of such. Character is never complete. A reputation can be made or lost in a day, but it takes a lifetime to build your character. If this be the case, surely twelve years of a person's life spent in a public school is an excellent place and time to start him or her on charracter building. A good character works wonders for all excellent, average and below-the-average students. . 6 NORMAN HARNER, B. S. Indiana Central College Physical Education, Social Studies GLENN DOUTHITT, B. S.

QZEA55 3535 on In September, 1939, the doors of Harrisburg School were thrown open for another school year, and we, the first graders, marched in to take our place in the life of Harrisburg School. Many changes have come about during our twelve years here, but we have loved every minute of it. Names such as Barbara Smith, Jo Ann Scott, Shirley Meek, Ray Hadley, Cledith Koohns, and Margie Schultz were among the first graders of 1939. Some have come and some have gone in these past twelve years. Hadley left our little brown school in the third grade to attend Bentonville, but returned to Harrisburg in the fifth grade. During the same year, Marianne Houston came from Raleigh to join our class. During the fourth year, we welcomed our little boy, Willie Anderson, from Eighth Street School, in Connersville: also, another little boy, Dicky Gibbons, came to Harrisburg from Bunker Hill in his fourth year of school. Betty Dunn came from Madison during her fifth year and has continued at Harrisburg since. Besides Betty, Robert Ashcraft decided to leave Maplewood, Connersville, and spend his remaining school days with us. Don Broughton, too, came from Eighth Street the next year. Martha Kunkel made her appearance at Harrisburg from St. Gabriel in the ninth grade. Also, we remember Margie Schultz leaving Harrisburg, in the second grade, and going to St. Gabriel, but returning to our class again her ninth year. Our Freshman year was uneventful except for the warming we received from the Seniors on initiation day. Our class sponsor was Miss Langston, and officers were Don Broughton, President: Dick Gibbons, Vice-President: and Ray Hadley, Secretary- Treasurer. fEveryone wondered why we didn't have any money that year!! We find that Barbara Smith was President: Don Broughton was Vice-President: and Jo Scott was Secretary-Treasurer during our Sophomore year. It was about this time that Clarence Back came into our class from Brookville. l e With the beginning of our Junior year, life became more interesting. We were thinking of our class trip and how we would finance it. We sold ice cream, magazines, etc. and we featured a carnival, two dances, three bake sales, and a play called Whoa, Auntie. With these profits, we made our trip to the East. During our Junior year, we elected Barbara Smith, as President: Martha Kunkel, Vice-President: and Richard Gibbons, Secretary-Treasurer. After some serious talk- ing and persuading, Mrs. McCallister' became our sponsor. . Marianne Houston, Presidentg Jo Ann Scott, Vice-President, and Margie Schultz, Secretary-Treasurer are the Senior Class officers. Our Senior sponsor is Mr. A Glenn E. Douthitt. We produced The Bashful Bachelor a Samuel French production, for the Senior play. With Baccalaureate Sunday, May 6th, and Commencement, Thursday, May 10th, we will complete twelve years of schooling and embark on new careers which we hope will find everyone successful. 15 GRASS 719311 We, the Senior Class of Harrisburg High' School, county of Fayette, city of Connersville, state of Indiana, being of unsound mind, dare to publish this, our last will and testament to be read by the future students of Harrisburg High School.

MM 3.263 , 'Pwr 16 TASS 7PlB.03'.9?-HIE Q4 an Grandpa Cledith Koohns was sitting in his rocking chair smoking his corn cob pipe up in them thar hills when suddenly there came rushing twenty-four grand- children on the porch answering the call for dinner. Poor Grandpa was thrown over and landed on his head. Instead of seeing stars, his memory wandered back and his fir st vision was of Willard Charlie Anderson, chug, chugin' along in his 1902 Steamer, stopping at H. H. S. to begin his daily duties shoveling coal and sleeping in the furnace room. Upstairs in a room, once occupied by a man named Darby Davis, sat Clarence Back with his feet propped up on the desk and smoking a big cigar. Well, it looked as if Jack finally made his goal. Next coming into focus was a dairy farm. Wandering from the big white barns was Raym Hadley, and standing at the door was his loving wife, and what do you know- she was Marianne Houston with their ten children. His vision changed and there was Ashcraft. Iggy was now grown to be a man and the greatest-known boxer of the l960's. Grandpa Koohn's mind started getting hazy--then it cleared--corning into view on top of one of those hills of Kentucky, was a great mansion, and a figure seated in the huge garden. Who was it? Why, there was Shirley Sam Meek and a man that Sam' was calling Hooter. Well, Shirley finally married and owned her own home--every- one knew she would change her mind about being an old maid! Then Grandpa Koohns began thinking of the little girl of his 1951 Senior Class that the other girls used to play jokes on. Now the biggest joke falls on Grandpa, because his little girl, Betty Ruth Dunn, was now a commercial teacher. And I had better add, she was taking Miss Jones' place completely as she was not interested in marriage, either, Grandpa Koohns' rnind wandered farther and he saw a gracious mansion. Well, shut my mouth, and call me Shortie! If it wasn't J o Ann and Glyndon Ashcraft.' As Grandpa started a convex' sation, telling of his illness, there was a great commotion in the hall. It looked as if Jo' and Glyndon-would have to leave because Joe, Jr. had just fallen downstairs. M Grandpa Koohns almost had a convulsion next thinking of that mischievous little short-wave brain wonder -you guessed it-none other than our own Marjorie Schultz. 'Twas hard to believe, but Marjorie had her own TV show, and the latest news I heard was that she was suing her manager because he suggested she plan out her script before going on thevshow. But, you know Margie, when she had something to say, she didn't have to plan it. Then as Grandpa Koohns dreamed on, he could see Barbara Smith, a social butter- fly-still carrying on Miss Langston's and her ideas of catching a man. She was still a little backward until a man came into the hall, then watch out! And on down the road a little farther, he could see Dicky Gibbons and his beautiful little wife, Mozell. Dick Gibbons was sitting smoking his pipe and watching his ten kids cut tobaccer to help support him and his hard-working wife. ,Next Grandpa could see our ambitious Don Broughton, but much to his surprise, Don had lost all his ambition and gained lots of weight. Of course, he could understand why for Don's loving wife, Mary Ann Heck, had a college education and Don wanted her to use it. She was employed at Joe's pool room, Grandpa then believed he was entering the Y. M. C. A. and beheld a figure diving into the swimming pool. fThey were trying to revive Grandpa with cold water now., When Martha climbed out, she explained that she was the sports instructor at the Y until she was promoted to the candy counter selling Life Savers. And now you know what to expect from the graduates of Harrisburg of May, 1951. 17 391143 03 -53555011 3113? On Tuesday, May 9, 1950, we, the Harrisburg Classes of '50 and '51, boarded a Miller Tours' bus and were on our way East. The first night we were unloaded at Pittsburgh for an overnight stay and were carefully watched by the sponsors of our classes, Mrs. McCallister, Miss Jones, and Mr. Morrett. That evening some went to shows while others roamed over the big city or stayed in the hotel rooms, bothering the hotel clerks and calling for room service. On Wednesday, the second day, we toured the battlefield of Gettysburg and saw where Lincoln made his Gettysburg Address, where many Generals and Soldiers were buried, cannons, and high wall fences, which are still standing where the war was fought. The things we saw were what we read about many times in history. Arriving that evening in Washington, D. C., we checked in at the Annapolis Hotel. A few went swimming in the hotel pool while others were sight-seeing. Breakfast was at six o'clock Thursday morning, after which we- hopped on a touring bus that took us past the White House which was being repaired at the time, and Blair House, where the President was staying then. We saw many other important places such as the Capitol Building, the Lincoln Memorial, Congressional Library, and Jefferson Memorial. We went to the very top of the Washington Monument where we could see a beautiful view of Washington, including the famous Pentagon. , In the afternoon, we went to General Lee's home, and Washington's home, Mount Vernon. The guide showed us through these houses, and it was interesting to find that the furniture and paintings were beautifully preserved. The next stop was at the Arlington Cemetery where many of our war heroes were buried, and the Unknown Soldier's Tomb, which is guarded day and night. Later we visited the Smithsonian 'Institute where the Wright Brothers plane, the first locomotives, antique automobiles, models of boats, army uniforms and fashionably dressed forms of the First Ladies were just a few of the many things we saw. The same evening most of the class and the sponsors went on a moonlight boat ride on the Potomac River, where there was dancing and a wonderful view of the lights shining down on the water . Friday, we went through Philadelphia on our way to New York, stopped off at Betsy Ross' house, then on to Independence Hall, where we saw the Liberty Bell. We arrived in New York about five o'clock that evening, checked in the Shelton Hotel and then the group headed for Radio City Music Hall, which is the largest auditorium in the world with a seating capacity of six thousand. They had beautiful stage shows and also motion pictures which are presented daily. After leaving the Music Hall, everyone walked up the street to Times Square, which is known throughout the world as The Great White Way. it is the magnet and high spot of New York, with its huge lighted signs of many theatres, night clubs, and restaurants. Saturday, the bus took us to the New York Pier where we boarded a tourist boat and cruised under the famous Washington, Manhattan, and Brooklyn Bridges, and saw a glimpse of the Bronx and Brooklyn. The most wonderful sight to see was the Statue of Liberty on Bedloe's Island. Then in the afternoon most of us shopped for bargains at Macy's and Gimbles. That evening several went to Coney Island, which would be a thrilling and exciting place to get lost in' ' Sunday morning, a few' of us hurried to church, then rode in a glass topped bus through the Bowery, the slums of New York, and stopped at Chinatown, where the guide took us through the Chinese temples and other buildings. It was interesting to hear the way they talked and see their way of life and wor'ship. We went to the top of the Empire State Building, New York's tallest building. Some went to Grand Central Station, where you'll find all kinds of people traveling everywhere, then on to the famous Rockefeller Center. l8 In the evening, we arrived at N. B. C. studio where the guides showed how the sound effects work, where Portia Faces Life, and many other serials that you hear on the radio. One of the interesting parts was the television of a play in action. We saw Bob Crosby and his Orchestra and the American Album of Familiar Music being broadcast., A few lucky ones got to lee Perry Como television show. Monday, we packed our grips and started back to Pittsburgh for an overnight stay. Then Tuesday morning, we started toward home, but after all that traveling the bus became exhausted near Columbus, Ohio, and had to be repaired. We arrived at Halley's Restaurant early in the evening. Most of us would have liked to stay longer but all good things have to come to an end', and still we were anxious to tell everybody about the things we saw and the fun we had. As Seniors of Harrisburg School, we would like to tell our Principal, Mr. Davis and the teachers, parents, and patrons of Harrisburg, Thanks a lot for making our trip East possible through patronizing our plays, buying ice cream, and candy. It was fun and certainly educational. -f ft f E, ., in l 1 ROCKEFELLER CENTER t MOUNT VERNON, vmomul CAPITOL - wAs1-UNGTON, D. c. f , ' , 4. '.
