x I 1 .x,..,...- - in -.....,,,..t 9. :S Presented by THE SENIOR CLASS of DELPHOS HIGH SCHOOL S Delphos, Ohio Jmavmd Love of country is indeed a sentiment common to all peoples and to all agesg but no land has ever been dearer to its people than our own Ohio. No state has a history more inspiring, no state has institutions more deserv- ing of patriotic love. Ohio stands for democracy, for liberty under the law. Ohio stands for the heroic courage and self reliance of her early pioneers, for the equality of opportunity which led her canal-boat boy to the presidency. Ohio stands for the great system of free public schools, for service and self sacrifice in the cause of humanity. Always, and above all else, Ohio stands for loyalty to the Union of States. When you salute the flag of the Republic, you should resolve that your own life will be dedicated to these Ohio ideals, which are likewise the ideals of America. You should remember that he is the truest American patriot and the best son of Ohio, who understands the meaning of these ideals, and who pledges his own life to their realization. Ohio, land of freedom, culture, and beauty, is celebrating its one- hundred and fiftieth anniversary of statehood this year, 1953. Ohioans are proud of this and are working hard to make the Sesquicen- tennial a success. We, the class of nineteen hundred and fifty-three, are proud of our heritage. The task of carrying on the leadership of our beloved State will soon be ours- Our foremost desire is that posterity be able to look back on our deeds with gratitude. For this reason, the class of '53 wishes to contribute its share to the suc- cess of the Ohio Sesquicentennial by incorporating within this book a short history of Ohio and its progress. We have striven to show by comparison the similarity between the State and its functions and those of our school. Our thanks to the people of Ohio who have assisted us through the years by giving us time, financial aid, and knowledge. fbecficcafian 2 .Ll, if J -iii 4 r wx , 5 M? si? ,N v :lv g To our advisor.

Jia Mary .lane Meyers - .xltftlllllllll +- .Io Ar October 17 was Homecoming Night at Jefferson. The queen and her attendants ar- rived at the football game in a new conver- tible and were presented with huge bouquets. A gala dance, held in honor of the charming Queen, Jo Ann Welch and her attendants, III is K- ! 1 11-li - Queen i Judy Kissell - Attendant Mary Jane Meyers and Judy Kissell, was fun for all who attended. As the highlight of the dance, Keith Kiggins, Vern Gonyea and Roger Briggs escorted the girls to their thrones. Then Keith, captain of the football team, crowned the queen. .Schonl Qancu, There were many dances throughout the school term Several of these were co-sponsor- ed by the P. T. A. The formal dances included the Y-Teen Stardust Serenade and the J unior-Senior Prom. The theme for the prom was Paradise Beneath the Sea and was successfully car- ried out by the Junior Class. The music room was decorated with fish and mermaids and other scenes from the undersea world. After several of the football and basket- ball garnes, informal dances were held in the gym. Two of these were sock dances , a novelty for Jefferson students. The G. A. A. sponsored the home-coming dance October 17. The gym was gaily adorn- ed and a throne was constructed for the Queen and her attendants. On March 13, the students enjoyed a St. Patrick's Day Dance complete with a blarney Stone. All of these dances contributed to the social life of the Jefferson students. Some work, some fun. makes school life an interesting one . These snapshots help to picture some of the activities which are going on continuously at Jefferson. However, from the looks of the first picture, it isn't all play. As you can see, the education at Jefferson High is well rounded ! !

The need for companionship and the mutual co-operation of the settlers soon led to the development of villages, the first being Schoenbrunn in 1772, and Marietta in 1788. The church was the center of the early community. spiritually. politi- cally. and socially. No modern day metropolis can boast more enthusiasm then these early settlements. . . . . . .....

It was usurped either by constant vigilance against the Indians or by the maintainance of a livelehood. However as the wilderness was gradually tamed. the pioneers en- d ho were d d more recreation. They learned many sports from In ians, w ore excellent athletes, and today we still practice many of the old Indian games such as the relay race. wrestling, and archery. .... . . . . .

Congress authorized the voters in that part of the Northwest Territory south of Michigan to elect delegates to a convention for the purpose of form- ing a state constitution. The convention met on Nov. 1, 1802. at Chillicothe and the constitution was prepared within the month. On March L1803, Ohio became the 17th state to enter the Union. Ohio's second constitution which excluded many outmoded laws functioned much more smoothly than the first. We are living under that constitution today. The state capitol was first located in Chillicothe and for a while in Zanesville. Then in 1816 the site of the city of Columbus - named in honor of the discoverer of America - was selected upon which to build the permanent capitol of Ohio. LACULTY ..! Lawrence E. Schmidt, B.

Ohio and her inhabitants are held in high esteem by the rest of the nation. She ' s to come. has earned this high reputation and will strive to uphold it m year SENIOR! Feeling like the settlers who in covered wagons moved into the great new land of Ohio, the young Freshmen entered the unfamiliar walls of Delphos High in 1949. Excited and a little fearful, they plunged quickly into work and activities. Like the settlers, they had many difficulties to overcome, in their new land, and savage Indians were portrayed by such problems as Algebra , Latin , English , and History . But lead by such experienced leaders as Jo Anne Welch, Keith Kig- gins, Bill Mericle, Mary Jane Meyers, and Paul Bryan, they were able to find loads of time to enjoy themselves. Sewing Bees, Hoe Downs, and such were replaced with the Y-Teen Dance, class parties, and ballgames. As the next year found the settlers more sure of themselves, so the students had gained in assur- ance as they entered their Sophomore year. Now their leaders moved aside to let Mary Jane Meyers, Vern Gonyea, Keith Kiggins, Paul Bryan, and Jim VanDemark continued the excellent job they had started. The foundation laid, the job now was to strengthen their hold on education as the pioneers had strengthened their hold on their new homes and farmlands. The difficulties were still about the same, but more advanced. Many of our boys had advanced to the Varsity teams in the different sports and the G. A. A. banquet was a new experience for the girls. Sooner than thought possible, they were ready to move on to a much stranger and exciting field, here excitement was to be found around any tree or hill . An entirely new experience was the Junior Back Bow, L. to R: Lavern Gonyea, John Brenneman. Second Bow, L. to B.: Mary .lane Meyers, Jo Anne Welch, Judy Kissell. P1-ont Row: Sally llienstberger. class play, Brother Goose . Also they were host and hostess to the envied Seniors at the traditional J unior-Senior Prom - the theme being Apple Blossom Time . These past years the band which now replaced the fiddles and banjos of our fore- fathers had been taking many prizes at the annual contests. Along with this, our boys were keeping up the old spirit of friendly rivalry and sportsmanship by taking part of the basketball, football and base- ball teams. Keith Kiggins, Bob Poling, Gordon Gudakunst, Sally Dienstberger and Eunice Mitter- maie'r as our new officals kept everybody happy with new ideas and skillful leadership. At long last, we safely made the long pull to- wards our goal! We have become full-Hedged Sen- iors. Our joy must have been a small part of the joy and excitement which the hardworking settlers felt when they became the state, Ohio. Soon however, we found that this entailed as much work, if not more than we had had before. Such new diffculties as Advanced Algebra, Physics, and Bookkeeping had to be cleared away before we could relax. We published a book called the Delphi , telling about our experiences in con- quering a new land. This was hard work and a lot of fun. It told about our nice Prom given for us by the Juniors, about our dances and parties, about our class play, Father of the Bride , of our class picnic, sports, music and other good times. As we leave the now familiar walls of Delphos High, we hope that we can follow the example set by our ancestors in making Ohio a better place in which to live. .IL ZZ.

Wfwphwf May 1970: Well, Ohio certainly has improved since our thirty-nine Seniors entered into the af- fairs of our busy state. The Moreo 8z Culp Construction Co. is busy putting the final touches on our new capitol building, which was designed by the famous Architectural Engineer, Jay Hinton. Governor David W. Ridenour believes in nothing but the best for our fair state. By the looks of the new wardrobe which his wife, Rose Mary Koenig, is having designed and created by Mary Wreede and Ernestine Vas- quez, she heartily agrees with him These two girl's creations have made Ohio stiff competi- tion for Italy in fashion designs. In the Columbus Weekly we just read of the brilliant, new doctor of Medicine and Re- search at Ohio State. On closer investigation, we find that it is our good friend Gordon Gudakunst. It seems that he and his assistant, Eunice Mittermaier, have found a new cure for Romantic Fever . Jim VanDemark now resides in Dayton, and is working furiously at Wright's Atomic Fission Plant, to finish his new rocket ship so that Bob Miller can make his trip to Mars on schedule. The Elite Dancing Studio, owned by Clifford Wells, is putting Arthur Murray out of business. C1iff's favorite pupil was Helen Rahrig, who is now a colonel in the WAFS. His wife, the former Kay Macwhinney, is a state representative. She travels all over the state giving political speeches. Seniors, Seniors-Those Wonderful People! Prophecy - iCont.l Discovering tomorrow would be Sunday we made reservations on an airline service operated by Rita Carmean's husband. We headed for Toledo to catch the church service of Rev. Vern Gonyea. According to the Toledo Blade, he and his Wife, Mary Jane Meyers, are entertaining Arlene Allen, a missionary from Ethiopia. Taking a Sunday afternoon trip to Put- In-Bay, We enjoyed a Wonderful tour guided by Don Brubaker, caretaker of Perry's Monu- ment. After eating at Barbara Tigner's Snack Shop, we attended a show at Beverly Shu- feldt's new theater. Connie Fritz ushered us to our seats. They told us that Phyllis Bly- myer and her husband are still touring the country giving lectures on improved farm- ing conditions in Ohio. In Delphos We found that Ronnie Mer- icle had become director of the Youth Center. Bill Mericle was visiting his cousin Ronnie. He is now manager of Ohio's State Parks and his headquarters are at the Ohio Caverns. We dropped in on the former Sally Dienstberger and found her disappointed that she could not accompany us to Cleveland to attend the National Nursing Convention. But she was busy using her medical know- ledge in raising her family. We were happy to find Keith Kiggins at home. He is now manager of the four time pennant winner, the Cincinnati Reds. He told us that Marilyn Young was singing at the Zoo Summer Opera in Cincinnati. Prophecy - lCont.l Speaking of sports, Judy Kissell and her husband have also done their part in contri- buting man power to the successful 1970 DHS basketball team' Here we find Bob Poling and his family living on easy street . He invented the De- luxe Amphibious Honeymoon Car you know. Continuing our trip to Cleveland we toured the Art Institute, guided by Shirley Lause, Professor of Art and Design. Cleveland has become a rival of Chicago Paul Bryan and his wife, Helen Brinkman in the meat-packing industry, founded by Bryan. Helen told us that Joan Louth was honeymooning in Alaska. In the evening we attended a lecture given by Joan Lloyd's husband, on the com- parison of Michigan and Ohio. Roger Briggs now owns a chain of Mara- thon Gas stations. Due to their prosperity, he and his wife, Jo Ann Welch, have enrolled their daughter in Dolores Redmon's fashion- able finishing school. On our way home we passed through Akron and found John Brenneman in the lap of luxury . He had married the daughter of a wealthy tire and rubber magnet and is planning to take over the management. So you see, by the looks of things, the '53 Seniors' wish at graduation has come true. They have all contributed towards improv- ing Ohio. -----ef-wr--K ,vnuuwf a Free public education has always been one of the most cherished ideals of Ohioans. The first school in Ohio was taught in a little cabin at Belpre' during the sum- mer of 1789. How far the schools of Ohio have progressed since that little red school house! Higher education soon came into being also. Ohio boasts six state supported ' The are Ohio University Miami University, Ohio State University, institutions. y , Bowling Green University. Kent University and Wilburtorce University. There are also 48 privately endowed colleges and universities. Ohioans truly believe that knowledge is the key to success. UN DLRC LM!

Her fertile soil made' agriculture the domin- ant occupation until after the Civil war. The presence of mineral resources and of ' ' f. t which transformed Ohio water shipping routes and Ohio's central location were ac ors into one of the nation's leading industrial states. Human resources. too, were im- portant in the rise of Ohio from the lonely frontier stage to the complex urban-in- dustrial civilization of today.
