CLASS HISTORY The beginning of the first year of our high school career started with the following pupilszl William Helton, Bill Hech- stedler, Don Cranor, Eugune Schaaf, Paul Hainlen Jr., Tom Harper, Phil Hueston, Ruth Ellen Moss, Esther Harger, Meds Froelich, and Sue Hullinger. We elected Byron Iockhart as our sponsor. Although we thought we knew about everything there was, hav- ing acquired it in our first eight years, we found out soon enough that there was much to be learned. At the end of that year, we lost William Helton and B111 Hochstedler, but we had the remaining nine to finish our Sopho- more year. They were Don Cranor, Eugene Schaaf, Paul Hainlen Jr, Tom Harper, Phil Hueston, Ruth Ellen Moss, Meda Froelich, Esther Harger, and Sue Hullinger. Again this year we chose Mr. Iockhart as our sponsor. To begin our Junior year we had lost Esther Barger to the 'sea of matrimony' but had gained Eddie Minnich. So again the class had a count of nine. Being a good sponsor to us, we chose Mr. Lockhart to serve us in our third year of high school. A lot of activities took place for us. We prepared and served the Institute dinner and proceeded to present the play 'Grandpa's Twin Sister' with the help of two members of the class preceding us. ' To start the last year of a long twelve year journey, we en- tered just a little older and dignified. We added two members to our class which makes the '49'ers' with eleven members the same that started in our Freshman year. The new members were Joe Watkins Jr. from Ohio, and Carol Baker from Arkansasg also the 'old bunch' consisting of Don Cranor, Eugene Schaaf, Paul Hainlen Jr., T m Harper, Phil Hueston, Eddie Minnich, Ruth Ellen Moss, Meda Froelich and Sue Hullinger. The honorable officers of the Senior Class were chosen as follows: President, Ruth Ellen Moss, Vice-President, Sue Hullingerg Secretary, Meda Froelichg treasur- er, Paul Hainlen Jr. We chose as our sponsor for our final year after three sucessful years, Mr. Iockhart. We have come a long way but we still have a much longer way to go. with happy mem- ories and graying teachers we bid our High School a very fond Ad-ieu on, May 4, 1949, the day that ends our high school days. 11

CLASS PRQPHECY Weary from driving I decided to stop at the next farm house to stretch my legs. When I pulled into the drive I saw a woman with beautiful blonde hair, hanging up a wash- ing. As I walked toward her she turned around and much to my surprise it was Sue. She told me that she and Jim were quite successful as farmers. After leaving Sue, I drove on, anxious to reach my des- tination before dark. As I entered the suburbs of New York, I saw the name 'CRANOR FOR PRESIDENT' on the billboards. That brought back to my mind my high schools days when big, tall Don Cranor was captain of our basketball team. Ah, what wonderful days. Driving on, I came to the Hueston Hotel and remembering Phil I decided to stop. As I stepped out of my car a door- man rushed to take my bags. After I was settled in my room I found that there were no towels so I decided to speak to the manager, and was informed that I would have to talk to the owner. As I walked into the office I was amazed to find that it really was Phil Hueston. As I sat talking to Phil about the classmates that I had seen on my trip, he called out a name which sounded familiar and as the lady walked into the room I saw that it was Ruth Ellen, holding true to her ambition of being a bookkeeper. I asked Ruth Ellen if she had married and she said, 'Of course.' Phil told me of a prize fight he had attended the night before when the Middle Weight Champion of the World had been knocked out by none other than Paul Hainlen. Just then our conversation was interrupted by some one else who wanted to talk to the hotel owner, and who should walk in but Ed Minnlch, a successful cattleman from South Dakota, who with lynemah was visiting New York. They were going to attend a basketball game to see Indiania U. play New York State. Ed said he was sure that Indiania would certainly win for their head coach was none other than Tan Harper. They had just come from attending a circus at which the star clown performer was Eugene Schaaf, following in the footsteps of his father who was the circus owner. We were again interrupted by a very flashily dressed play boy, complaining about his room service, it was Carol Baker. Carol was walking with a limp and said he was just out of the hospital where the head nurse, an old maid, led: Froelich, had cared for him. Continued iz
