HISTORV In September, 1930, we started our school career under the guidance of Miss Miller. We are quite proud of our class as we won many honors while in the elementary grades. In due time came eighth grade commencement. In the year of l93B, we entered the portals of higher learning which is sometimes called high school. The upper classmen seemed to have a, grudge against us as we were initiated one week instead of the usual day. After getting into fuIl swing we chose the following officers: Richard Pankhurst, president, Nancy Weaver, vice president, Jean Stull, secretary, Owana Smith, treasurer, and Miss Lee as our advisor. Nancy Weaver and Lois Jean Russell were members of the basketball team with Jean Stull acting as manager. Lester Lindower and Paul Hed- den were members of the boys' team. Jean Stull and Nancy Weaver took part in the Student Council play. Owana Smith and Lester Lindower were on the News- hound Staff. We were now known as Sappy Sophomores but our class feels that the name wasn't suited to our class. We elected Lester Lindower, president, Flor- ence Myers, vice president, Nancy Weaver, secre- tary, and Margie Rutherford, treasurer. We had Mr. Eby as our advisor and I might add that we really gave him a workaut. Lester was the only boy to represent our class in the County Basketball Tourna- ment. Deane Myers was fortunate in winning first place at the home, county and state cream judging contest. Florence Myers represented us in the dis- trict solo contest at Oberlin, and also in the state contest at Columbus. During our Junior year we chose Florence Myers, president, Nancy Weaver, vice president, Porter Mas- sie, secretary, and Deane Myers, treasurer. Miss Alexander was our class advisor and we kept her very busy, especially when the time for the banquet rolled around. We sold concessions at basketball games, gave our class play and had a booth at the fair which increased our savings. Owana and Jean both rated second in the county Prince of Peace contests. Florence Myers, Marvalene Eddinger and Lois Jean Russell were members of the girls' sextette that entered the district contest at Oberlin. Florence Myers again represented us at the district contest at Ober- lin, and the state contest at Columbus with an alto solo number. Lester Lindower was o member of the trumpet trio which also went to Oberlin and Colum- bus. Although girls' basketball was forbidden this year we proved to be the victors in the Brown Derby. Our Junior Class Play Bolts and Nuts was given in February. Jean Stull, Richard Pankhurst, Lester Lind- ower, Florence Myers, Julia Meszaros, Marvalene Eddinger, Owana Smith, and Lois Jean Russell were members of the Honor Society. The last event of the year of great interest was the banquet we gave in honor of the Seniors on May 3, I94I at Findlay Country Club. The class was known as dignified Seniors this year but I think you will recall some times when we weren't so dignified. Our class is all out for fun and so when there was any fun to be had there were al- ways some of the Seniors there. We elected Richard Pankhurst, president, Florence Myers, vice president, Porter Massie, secretary, and Margie Rutherford, treasurer, with Mr. Kettler as our advisor. Margie decided she would rather budget her own money than that of the Senior Class so she became Mrs. James Fruchey. Johnny Lindower was then elected to budget the Senior money. A special county choir of four was selected to go to the choral festival of which Lester Lindower, Florence Myers, and Lois Jean Russell were members. A sextette was chosen to enter the contest at Oberlin which consist- ed of Julia Meszaros, Florence Myers, Nancy Weaver and Lois Jean Russell. Although we won the highest rating along with several other schools we were not selected to go to the State Contest. Seldom does a class have a member with the ability to win honors in the some activity year after year, but such is the record of one of our number, Florence Myers, who for the third time was selected to represent us in the alto solo contest at Oberlin and Columbus. Owana entered the Prince of Peace Contest and went to the district. Under the supervision of Lois Jean Rus- sell, Raymond Nederhouser, and Betty Meyer our class was fortunate in winning first place in room decoration at Christmas time. We are quite proud of the number from the Senior Class that are in the Honor Society, which includes: Marvalene Eddinger, Lester Lindower, Porter Massie, Charles Master, Julia Meszaros, Betty Meyer, Florence Myers, Richard Pankhurst, Lois Jean Russell, Opal Smith, Owana Smith, Jean Stull, and Nancy Weaver. Lester Lindower was president of the County Honor Society and Jean Stull was reporter. The Senior Class Play was That Crazy Smith FamiIy with John Lindower, Owana Smith, Jean Stull, Lester Lindower, Nancy Weaver, Harold Walt- ers, Richard Pankhurst, Opal Smith, Florence Myers, Carl Prenzlin, Porter Massie, and Lois Jean Russell taking part. We are quite proud of the fact that Lester Lindower won the Jack Hoffman Memorial trophy for his sportsmanship in basketball. Again our class proved to be the victors in the Brown Derby by nosing the Junior Class out by one point. The activities that our class has partici- pated in during high school are: G.R,, Hi-Y, F.F.A., F.H.A., Prince of Peace, Mixed Chorus, Girls Chorus, Boys Chorus, Sextette, Student Council, Student Council Play, Newshaund, Debate, One Act Play Contest, Basketball, Class Plays, Track, and Honor Society. Thus ends the history of the Senior Class and what is in store for us in the future we are not able to disclose. Lois Jean Russell. PRUPHECV I opened my eyes one nice morning in May and suddenly realized that ten years had elapsed since the night I graduated. My husband's vacation was to start the next day so I decided to look up all of my classmates. We left little Greely Mortimer with his nurse and started out. I thought Lester would be closest to visit as he had been working at Sears and Roebuck in Fostoria. But, lo and behold, when I inquired about him, I learned that he had been transferred to Chicago as manager of the company there. Then I walked on down town. There, I ran into Owana. She told me that she and Wayne had been married several years. She was due to speak at the commencement exercises that night at Jackson High School in the large and well-developed city of Ams- den. She informed me that she was on her way to the garage where her car was being checked by none other than Raymond Nederhouser and Deane Myers who owned and operated the garage. l was informed by several people that the garage was receiving more trade than any other garage in the United States. They said the service was so dependable and quick. I learned from Owana that Jean was on Broadway so l journeyed to New York. There I saw Jean in a very interesting performance. On the way back to my hotel, l decided to listen to a news broadcast and whose voice should l hear but our own Charles Master. The next morning at breakfast, I picked up a newspaper and was surprised to find that Betty Meyer was the Editor. Upon further examination of the paper I noticed an advertisement in large black letters. An opera was to be given the next evening with that great and well-known songstress, Florence Myers. I was determined to see that opera, but first l needed some new clothes so I decided to see a dress designer for the leading fashions. I came upon a designer's shop that attracted my attention. When I stepped inside I was greeted by none other than Opal Smith. We struck up a conversation. She related to me that the reason Betty had never been married was that she still hadn't been able to go steady that long. Opal also told me that she would soon marry. ' We left New York and started back home. We came home through Columbus. We stopped to visit Nancy. She hadn't been married very long. Nancy had taken up college after high school and had been working with her mother. l learned from Nancy that Richard was doing well in the Senate. He was representing Ohio, of course. I decided to get a souvenir so we stopped to see
