Class Poem Vie, the Class of 50, Bid our friends a fond adieu As we leave the halls of Homer High These years that have seemed so few. We leave the old red school house Our departure we regret; We leave with a thousand memories Some we may forget. We each have a seperate destiny, We each have a different scheme. We each have a different goal to reach, And each has a burning dream. Our Pate now lies within our hands The world Is ours should we desire. Shall we smoulder like slow dying embers Or devour the world with our fire? --Roxana Oxenrider njjflTScf) kms jossJhsu Standing: J. Swope, T. Anderson, W. Lawrence, P. Howe seated: P. Mickle. H. Thomas. H. Finley, D. Easton 222 t?7 r r r r - NN r STORY In September, 19U6, sixty-three students began their high school careers by enrolling in the ninth grade. During the year we acquired one more member, Dean Safford. Our freshman class advisors were Mr. Oates and Mr. Wolfe and our officers were as follows: President, Virginia Hartman Vice President, Earline Miller Secretary, Pauline Howe Treasurer, Patty Mickle We had hardly gotten used to the glory of being full-fledged high school students, when the sophomores spoiled it all on the evening of September 20 by initiating us. Shortly after the initiation exercises the freshman boys gained the recognition of the school by pulling the sophomores through the river in the tug-o-war. The freshman girls, however, were a bit less fortunate as they were defeated in a softball game by the sophomore girls. In September, 19U7, fifty-seven students, with one year under their belts, were proud to enroll in the sophomore class. Our advisors that year were Miss French and Mr. Rowland and our class officers were as follows: President, Norman Plttelkow Vice President, Lawrence Wirebaugh Secretary, Wilford Lawrence Treasurer, Terry Anderson The annual freshman-sophomore field events took place during the latter part of October, the sophomore boys winning the tug-o-war and a touch football game while the sophomore girls lost their softball game to the freshman. We held the annual initiation reception for the freshmen on the evening of October 27 at which time we probably were a little harsh on the freshies. Following a much needed vacation, marking the middle of our high school careers, forty-eight of us returned to take up where we left off as sophomores. Our class advisors again that year were Miss French and Mr. Rowland. Our class officers were as follows: President, Eleanor King Vice President, Patty Mickle Secretary, Dorothy Vincent Treasurer, Joyce Wilson On the evenings of April 7 and 8 we presented our Junior play, While Wifey's Away before a large audience. We honored the Seniors on April 29, by put-lng on the customary Junior-Senior Prom. To enrich our class treasury so that we might take a Senior trip, we employed other money-making schemes such as running refreshment stands at ball games and sponsoring school dances. Forty-one proud year. For our final Hlghlund and Mr students enrolled in September, 19U9, for their Senior year of high school, we elected as our advisors, Mrs. The class and to receive the D. A. R. Hillbilly Courtship, on finance our Senior trip Community Fair, a baked Winchell, and as our class officers: President, Pauline Howe Vice President, Nancy Finley Secretary, Joyce Wilson Treasurer, Patty Mickle the faculty selected Eleanor King award for this year. Ae presented our Senior play, November 17 and 18. Other projects we sponsored to were a minstrel show and refreshment booth at the goods sale, a magazine subscription drive and a Christmas dance. The itinerary of our Senior trip was as follows: We left Detroit at 3 30 P M. on a D. k C. liner Monday, May 15 end arrived at Buffalo at 9sl5 A. M. on Tuesday. From Buffalo we went to Niagara Falls aboard a train. After visiting the falls we returned to Buffalo in the afternoon and left Buffalo at 6:00 P. M. aboard the liner. We arrived back in Detroit at 10:00 A. M. Wednesday. Our high school careers will be climaxed by the graduation exercises in May. Baccalaureate will take place on the evening of May 1I4., Class Night May 17, and the time which all Seniors have been looking forward to. Commencement May l6‘ - Charles Curry and Wilford Lawrence- CLASS PROPHECY As we gaze into the pool of the future with ripples smooth, we see ourselves at a dock bidding farewtll to Charles Curry now president of the United States with his secretary Laura Cha.nDerlain. They are about to board ship for South Africa. The captain of the boat, Lon Logan, comes out on deck to converse with his able assistant Ea Kohne. As the boat embarks out to sea we hear the piercing voice of Elden Winchell shouting, Fresh fish for sale , as his wife, Helen N«ntz holds a dead, dripping codfish by the tail. Further ciown on the street we see a large crowd anc on drawing nearer hear the lusty voice of Russell Williams announcing the greatest show on earth, Alva Ke.npton's one and only All St r Review featuring Roxana Oxenrider as Bubble Dancer , and companion Wesley Steen. Leaving the crowd we travel on to the heart of the city where we stop in cry-goods store managed by none other than Jack Swope with his wife, the former Patricia Mickle, as floor-walker. It is now lunchtime and we enter a nearby restaurant owned by Mildred Koch with Terry Anderson as chef. While waiting for our lunch, whom should appear but Denzil Easton peddling red worms, grubs and nightcrawlers. This causes us to move on and we stop at the University where Robert Semon and Dean Safford are busy shattering Einstein's theory. Looking out the wine our eyes fall upon the greatest football halfback of the twentieth century, Willie Lawrence with Coach Sharon Booth giving him instructions. The scene in the pool changes ano we see several small children quarreli.g. Who are these ladles coming to br ak it up? Why of course their mothers, Katherine Zuck and Joyce Wilson. Now we se Robert Thomas president of the Dairy Association getting his milk truck filled with gasoline at Dale Pratt's Sinclair station. In big lights on Broadway are the worcs, iargaret Truman's , Successor, Nancy Finley, and at the Plano is P9ulire Howe. A siren sounds and we turn to see an ambulance appear driven by Donald Henderson with Dr. Gerald Mees and his nurse Eleanor King on their way to the hospital. We are now entering a night club where Sally Nelson is hesa-check girl. After finoing a table none other than Richard iwcCullcugh comes to take our order. The floor show consists of Herbert Haight's orchestra with Joyce Malsner, Arlene Radee and Dorothy Vincent among his chorus. A ballet dance is being done now by Norman Pittelkow and his wife Mary Thomas. We go to our apartment now and I turn on the radio just as the news commentator, Clyde Wonders sums up his evening news broadcast and it's very interesting. It seems David Butler has Just been pinched by Harold Nelson for having two wives, namely Mary Tesh and Joan Sweet. -Pauline Howe and Nancy Finley- GLASS JUILL Be It remembered that the Senior Class of 1950 being of sound but tired minds, and knowing that the end is near, do hereby revoke all previous wills and testaments, and do generously bequeath to our beloved classmates our most valued possessions.

He was followed very soon by Lawrence Evans. Both of these men completed their training. From the Inception of the program, up to ran, 30, 1950, seventy-eight persons have been enrolled. Forty-six are now In membership. Twelve have completed their program of training. Thus twenty men or twenty-six per cent have dropped out before having completed their eligible time. At the beginning of this fiscal year In July, C. M. Lane replaced Mr. Gates as director. In October seventy per cent of those enrolled began keeping dairy records. Each month they have weighed, tested, and figured out their feeding program. Since July 1949 eleven specialists have participated In class discuss'on. Also six educational trips have boen taken. Many small area group meetings have been held. At the latter problems of common interest are discussed. All class members take the Hoards Dairyman and The Michigan Farmer. Motion pictures are -.sed for visual aid instruction a. a part of each week's discussion. Members of the class prepared a large booth at the county fair. This public display was to show the public the goals of training. The Instructors have been active in attending In Service Training meetings, monthly county agricultural council meetings and other like gatherings. From these, up to date Information on farm problems are discussed and plans made to put them Into use. Each week prior to class the Instructors meet to review week's activities and plan future activities. On Dec. 6 all veterans who had completed their training were graduated. Guy H. Hill of Michigan State College was the commence sent speaker. To enhance the training program for the remainder of the year, several specialists will appear for class discussion. Adltlonal educational field trips have also been arranged. T.iis assures continued educational progress throughout the school year. Top rc-w: L. Evan3, ... .«icNallyf «. Cooper, R. Mai-she 11, D.

' rAlORA fesr w� J Seldom is any program thoroughly effective unless it is generally accepted by the public. Especially, it is desirable that people should understand all governmental services available in a community. Most groups appreciate the necessity of having up-to-date methods in their profession or vocation. Veterans had no opportunity of learning changes in farming methods and other vocations while in service. People believed these men should receive free training in their chosen field. Training from The Cradle to the Grave is the philosophy accepted as a must by many leading educators. Thus many schools have made an adult training program available in their communities. Any school whether they had pre-vlousl” sponsored an adult program or not, could apply for a veteran's training program. The Homer Community School Board took advantage of this possibility and their application was accepted. Supt. E. C. Highlund sincerely believed the public should be further enlightened concerning the objectives in the training of agriculture under Public Law 377. Also, that all veterans in the service area should have full knowledge of this training program. When Mr. Lane, director of Veteran's Institute, suggested an exhibit at the County Pair, Mr. Highlund agreed enthusiastically with the idea. After suitable publicity, a well organized program for an exhibit was carried out--complete with detailed explanations of the opportunities offered by our Veteran's Institute to the farm veteran. The above picture shows a part of the resulting exhibition. The Interiors of the Homer Community School classrooms have remained unpalnted drab, grey cinder block. Noe a school painting project has been Initiated whereby the teachers, piplls and parents are painting the classrooms. The rooms are being painted in colors which are right for light reflection and selected by the teachers andc lla. The above picture was posed by the cheerleaders as they helped Mr. hrblsch paint his math room number 210. By next fall moat’of the rooms In the building will have been painted. Here our Journalism Class receives Its tjulll and Scroll Charter, admitting the Homer Journalism Class to the International 4uill and Scroll Society. CHEER LEADERS Cheerleaders were chosen this year after tryouts before the student body. A group of six girls, Carolyn Curry, Rhode Conklin, Charleen Polk, Barbara .veils, Virginia Hartman and Marcia Lane were chosen. These girls led the spectators in yelling throughout the football season. With the advent of the basketball season, two other girls, Marjorie Mickle and Helen Nantz Joined the group. New suits of orange and black were ordered and have been In use since January 10, 1950. Due to regular and strenuous practice our group of girls are one of the better trained groups in our area.

G. serve An activity for every student has been the thought of the administration this year. This is coupled with the knowledge that a happy youngster, one who likes school, progresses well in his studies, gets along well with others, creates good school morale. Student participation was excelent. A feeling of closeness and understanding was manifested between them and the faculty. An unusual array of talent in the faculty was a great stimulation. The overall program was in charge of Coach Winchell. Coach Dralme took charge of the Fifth and Sixth Grade boys. Supervised playground activity was in charge of Mrs. Roepke. The Arts and Crafts group was supervised by Mr. Tregloan, shop instructor, and Mr. Erbisch, who had done considerable work in it as a hobby. Kits were furnished the students. The group started their work with plastics, later working with copper. Early American Folk dancing was supervised by Mr. Stewart, who had had the assistance years ago of Mr. Benjamin Lovett, Henry Ford's dancing instructor. Excellent music was available with Mrs. Pauline Arnold and Mrs. Helen Whitney at the piano and Mr. Miller with his violin. A highlight of the season was the presentation of six sets in a demonstration at the half of the Athens-Homer basketball game. Mr. Winchell arranged for Kiss Harris, Ypsilanti State Normal College dancing instructor, to present a program of instruction in social dancing. Miss Cameron and Mr. Stewart assisted in this phase of the program. Shuffleboard was introduced and found many active devotees. A ping pong tournament was run off for girls and boys. An intra-mural basketball tourney composed of boys in the 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th grades developed considerable interest. Coach Drai-ne is Intent upon developing a basketball team which will be formidable to all teams in the Little C Conference. An excellent stride toward it was his organization of the Eighth Grade Invitational Tournament in which his team was the runner up. iv • t W Herman Teach, Haskell Finley, Theodore Teach, Eddie Janes, and head custodian John Hake3. Guidance has been defined as to include all types of assistance which is given the individual to enable him to make good adjustment, wise decisions, and intelligent plans Involving educational, occupational, social, and personal problems and situations. This definition is being approached in many ways in our school. Correlation and revision of course materials, supplementary material, visual aids, visits and practical demonstrations are being carried on by the faculty. There is integration of practical vocational information and assistance in maintaining proper social interests and attitudes . New courses, such as: Debate, Advanced Algebra, Trigonometry, Bookkeeping, Consumer-Economic Problems, and Occupations have been added to the curriculum. Perhaps, some explanation should be made concerning the latter two. Consumer-Economic Problems provides integration of the most basic economic principles with specific problems of managing and spending one's income, such as: consumer protection, selection and choice making, making specific purchases, and personal finance. Occupations is presented in the Ninth grade. Part I presents to the student his relationship with school and work, providing a brief overview of the world of work. Part II shifts the emphasis from the pupil to a comprehensive and somewhat detailed study of occupations. Part III brings the spotlight back again to the student and his immediate and long range problems in seeking successful occupational adjustment. Part IV attempts to give the student a true perspective of his place as an individual, his relationship to others, and the need for cooperation in occupational life. An extensive diagnostic and remedial testing program is carried on in the Elementary School. This is supplemented with counseling time for teachers and students. The High School program is broadened to Include occupational Interest, aptitude, and achievement tests. Aptitude test results are explained and interpreted Individually with the student. Students arrange with the Counselor for interviews and helps. Plans include work-experience and the placement of students. The Department subscribes to the outstanding guidance bureau publications. Materials are catalogued and filed. The Department is a member of the Michigan Counselor's Association and The national Vocational Guidance Association. Contact is maintained with personnel in business and industry. Many have been invited to present their program or business to the students during the year. A close working arrangement has been carried out with Mr. Kent Leach, Test Consultant, of the University of Michigan. The program is under the direction of Mr. Stewart, who has a Masters Degree from the University of Michigan in Personnel and Guidance. In addition, he has had six years of business and Industrial experience. With this background, he i3 able to bring to the students much practical expedience. Top row (L. to R.) Coach Winchell, C.

Football Homer High Schools 1949 football team fought an uphill battle throughout the season before gaining a win in the final contest from Jonesville by the score of 6 to 0. The victory in the final game from the league’s second place team was a tribute to Coach Wlnchell and the entire squad for their fine spirit and determination to carry the fight to all the opponents although outweighted in every contest. The fine fighting spirit of the 1949 Trojans will long be remembered. Seasons Record Bellevue US U OPP.

This was only the first of many defeats to come to a hard fighting but small Homer team. League play opened at Bronson and the local lost 63 to 34. Litchfield was the next opponent and Homer was on the short end again 46 to 39. Union City came to town for the season first home game and the visitors handed the home team a 36 to 30 loss. As the Annual goes to press the Trojans are working hard to recover from a bad start in basketball but the Little C is unusually strong and the going is difficult.

Track Homer High School hopes to field a complete track team this spring. Efforts are being made by Coach Draime and Winchell to interest more students in the fine sport. In recent years much more emphasis and interest has been shown toward track. Dual meets are being planned for the spring and a Little C Conference meet will be held. cuccrver HOMER.
