Page Seventeen DUR HIGH SCHOOL DAYS There has been some years a-flying. It seems only yesterday that we became eighth graders with seats in the little assembly of the high school building. It was fun trying to find the right rooms, and being right in the same build- ing with all the upperclassmen. Oh, sure, we got those square looks, too, but we didn't mind. This year we chose Frank Messer for our presi- dent, Pat McGiffin for vice-president, Joy Pres- ton for secretary and Kay Kirkwood for treas- urer. Mrs. Lieb was our class sponsor and she was a grand one. Our motto was No Victory Without Labor : our flower, a red rose: and our colors, blue and white. Our class party was a scavenger hunt which everybody enjoyed: also we had dancing and, in case anybody was hungry, we had refreshments. We, the Green Freshmen. started out with one hundred and eleven students, quite a few from South Milford, VVayne Center and Jeffer- son Schools were added to our list of students. This year we chose Max Barker for president, Kay Kirkwod for vice-president, Joanna Ran- dol for secretary and Rosalie Davis for treas- urer. Miss Aungst was our sponsor. In our Sophomore year we moved over to the big assembly where we could watch the seniors go in and out. Miss Aungst was again our sponsor and we really liked her. Kay Kirk- wood was our president: Howard Hanes, vice- president: Rosalie Davis, secretary and Albert Reed, treasurer. We chose the brightest green we could get for our class sweaters with a green 'K' outlined in white. Almost before we knew it we were the up- uerclassmen. We were busy this year. prepar- ing a banquet for the seniors: giving our play A Date With Judy and ordering our class rings. We sold all the magazines we could and our sales were very satisfactory. In the spring we elected an editor and business manager for the next year's annual. Jim Maloon and Don Moore were chosen for those jobs. Miss Power led us that year as our sponsor. Our class officers were president, Dick Mory: vice- presi- dent, Betty Stephens: secretary, Joy Preston and treasurer, Kay Kirkwood. At last the year we had all been looking for- ward to was here. We knew that our class members would soon be separated and each individual would be doing his own work, but we didn't have too much time to think about that. Our class officers, Dick Mory, president: Betty Stephens, vice-president: Rosalie Davis, secretary and Kay Kirkwood, treasurer, were chosen at an election modeled after our Nation- al Republican Convention. Miss Goodwin, our sponsor, helped us through this last year. We had a grand old-fashioned square dance for our class party. We ordered new class sweaters which were gray with red K's and sleeve em- blems this time. Our senior pictures were taken, graduation announcements and name cards were ordered and we started thinking in terms of caps and gowns. We presented our senior class play, One Foot In Heaven. in March. Then we began going to Farewell parties in our honor. There were sevently-three of us when we came to the finish. We are all grateful to the teachers who have helped us so much to get the education we wanted and needed. To YOU. underclassmen, We say, HK. H. S. is a grand school and right along with getting an educa- tion there is a wonderful time to be had.

ARTICLE Ill In Witness Whereof I have hereunto set my hcmd and seal at the city of Kenclallville, in Noble County, state of Indiana, this twenty-tourth day of May, l949. .i President Signed, sealed, published and declared by the testator as and for his last will and testament in the presencf who, at his his presence, and in the presence of each other have hereunto sub- scribed .nes as dayot May, 1949. ,Qfl,,e.o' i www, f X7 The big day was here at last! Our Hero was coming home! To think that after twenty years, a celebration such as this would bring all the class of 1948 together again. We were gathered at the Kendallville airport to wel- come the President of the United States, none other than Richard Mory, president of our junior and senior classes in high school. He with the First Lady, formerly Margaret Hud- son, would be arriving at twelve o'c1ock aboard the Comet, the Presidential private plane, piloted by Ted Butler, our former classmate. Many other famous personages were also ar- riving by plane, train and what have you. Kathleen Buuck, now a famous authoress, since her book Why Date Fat, Flabby Frust- rated Men was chosen the book of the year, was the first to arrive. Then came Alice Grubb, head of the Girl Scouts of America, and Joy Preston the Joy of the World Ice Cream queen. Sandra Berhalter, most famous Woman mortician, was on hand to greet Secretary of the Navy, Howard Hanes, and Secretary of Labor, Janice Windle and her advisor, Jeanne Borden. Marilyn Axel Robart, wife of the now famous LaOtto Piston's coach, was approach- ing with Betty Stephens, president of the Ste- phens Bank, located at the site of the old Campbell Sz Fetter Bank. They wanted es- pecially to be among the first of the welcom- ing committee. We could hear a plane ap- proaching and were all in a dither but soon found out it was a little early for the Presi- dential plane, and instead was Al Reed. hand- some movie star and his beautiful leading lady, Constance Pfaffman. They were accom- panied by Elizabeth Knight, only known per- son to play the piano and flute at the same time. and the famous woman golfer. Joanne Hossinger. who replaced Babe Zaharias when she retired due to senility. Accompanving them also, was Dean Botchuck with his fam- Page A GLANCE INTO ous invention, the Miracle Robot Woman, his constant companion. We thought the pilot and stewardess looked familiar and discovered they were Richard Poor and Shirley Hill. Kendallville had changed considerably in twenty years. The population was now close to fifty thousand, and the boundaries extended as far north as South Milford, and as far south as Avilla. Since Kay Kirkwood had complet- ed the summer White House on the shores of beautiful Henderson Lake, we were sure that the city would grow even larger. The magni- ficent structure was built at a cost of 31,000,- 000 and was decorated by Miss Joy Weirick. Secretary of the Interior-decorations, that is. A big army transport landed and we were surprised to see Colonels Jim Page and Charles Spidel alight. They were welcomed by Oak- ley Barrett, owner of Kendallville's largest Drive-In theater, the Grin and Barrett . The President's Cabinet and members of the Congress were continuing to arrive, and in one group we noticed Secretary of Agriculture, Jack Fredericks with several of his aides, Bill Fiandt, Wayne Root and John Edwards. They were discussing farm problems with scientist Howard Sell. Jim Maloon, chemistry expert since his discovery of Why Nitric Acid Does- n't Explode was giving them a few pointers. Joanne Frederick and Charlyene Fritz, 4-H leaders, were trying to overhear the conversa- tion. Gloria Shippy, devoting her life to woman suffrage, was explaining a few of her ideas to Arcille Hampshire, Nancy Reed, Hilda Gar- rison and Alice Rice, who were paying much more attention to their handsome husbands than to what Gloria was saying. Twenty OUR CRYSTAL BALL Ah, twelve o'clock, and we could hear a plane approaching. From the other direction came the sound of music and who should ap- pear but Pat Wogoman, expert on baton twirl- ing and strutting, leading the band and dis- playing her talents. As soon as the plane land- ed, the band struck up Go You Old K'vil1e and we all joined in singing our old school song. President and Mrs. Mory alighted from the plane accompanied by Arthur Flickinger, the President's campaign manager: Dr. Frank Messer, the President's personal physician and Bonnie Browand, the White House nurse. Then came Rosalie Davis, Mrs. Mory's secretary: Donnabelle Menzel, her personal beauty con- sultant and Max Barker, noted veterinarian, and hired exclusively by the President for the care of his pedigreed Pekingese, which Max carried in his arms. The President and his party got into the awaiting limousines driven by Joe Shaffer and Gene Kurtz, and contain- ing his personal body guards. Robert Adams and Don Emerick. Secret service men, Albert Truelove and Ronald Schlichtenmyer, were not far behind. Meanwhile, this great event was being broadcast over the air from Station K. H. S. and was being described by announcer Bob Shanower. We all climbed into cars and followed the President and his party through the streets of Kendallville. One of the cars barely missed running down Tom Skiles who was hurrying to meet his radio partner. Marilyn Snook, as they were due on the air in a short time with their program Advice to the Lovelorn . When we arrived at the Summer White House we were amazed at the throngs awaiting us. Pat McGiffin was there with his State Champion K'ville Comets team .Industrial wizard, Paul W eingart, was discussing the business trend with the famous manufacturers, Art 'l'h1eni and Jonn Duciding. Reeve Whitson, Well-known criminal lawyer was telling det- ective Jim Emerick about his last case. Joanna Randol, Naomi Stawser and Iris MeKeever were introducing their foreign husbands and as each talked a different language, it was very confusing. Alice Jaquay was trying to point out to Joanne Good and Nadene Emerick the necessity of a private telephone line. You see, Alice is chief operator of the telephone com- pany. It made one feel very insignificant to be in the presence of so many prominent personages. When we look back twenty years it does not seem possible that so much has happened and that so many in our class have become famous. Near us we could hear Herb Bickley and Paul Kuehn discussing their many adventures in the wilds of Africa. Arneta Uhl and June Burch soon joined them, telling their experi- ences as missionaries in faraway places. It all seemed like just a happy reunion of the class of 1949 as Donnie Moore and his fam- ous orchestra with Mary Hulwick and Mar- garet Menzel as vocalists played The Gang's All Here and Auld Lang Syne . As we sang together we lived again the happy, carefree days of our Senior year at K. H. S. Tears of pride and patriotism filled our eyes as the band changed not to our high school song. but to our national anthem and we realized the many con- tributions of our class members had made to the progress of our nation. At the close of the hymn, a hush of reverence and respect fell over the crowd as our President, Mr. Richard Perkins Mory, stepped forward to address us. beginning with these words, I speak for democracy.

While recognition is being given to awards made in 1948, certainly as much or more is due to one of our number who has this year won state-wide honor by placing first in the I Speak For Democracy state contest sponsored by the Junior Chamber of Commerce. Refer- ence is made to Arthur Flickinger, whose essay won a trip to the national contest to compete with other state winners. We can feel especi- ally proud of Arthur and our school, because his stiffest competition was probably encount- ered in the local contest, where he barely nosed out Richard Mory, Elizabeth Knight, and Clair Cripe. Thirty-Four 2131777 JUNIOR - SENIOR BANQUET On April 30. 1948, our class, as juniors, with our guests. the seniors. had a big celebration at our big plantation down south. There, in the shade of the old magnolia trees and the beautiful Mory mansion, we had a banquet of southern fried chicken fit for a king. It was prepared by Mammy Vardaman and served by a group of loyal sophomore slaves. Toastmaster Jack Roberts did a fine job in- troducing the program in rhyme. and started the festivities by presenting the famous junior ouartette. The Dixie Airistocrats and our host, Dick Mory, who invited us to Come on Down South. The invitation was accepted by Kenny Lash and Darrell Traster who told us That's What I Like About The South. Uncle Remus Whitson, in song and story, told us of his adventures, after which a negro quartette, the Mulattaires, entertained us with two numbers. Mr. Harold Hanes, the speaker for the evening, entertained us with tales of the customs of the south as he spoke on the subject Southern Traditions. Then, Jack Marti and Tom Skiles gave a hilarious dance and Joanne Hossinger presented a humorous monologue. The Airistocrats joined with the Georgia Peaches to conclude the program with a song. The celebration continued with a grand march in Col. Guvmon's training stables and an enjoyable evening drew to a close with dancing on the plantation lawn to the music of Guv Fitzsimmons' orchestra.

KAY AIT CH ESS 194 Volume XXXVII Published by the Senior Class of Nineteen Hundred and Forty-nine Kendallville High School Kendallville Indiana For the class of '49, the last four years have been filled with memorable events: the thrill of victory: the shock of defeat: the satisfaction of success: the despair of failure. Thus we have. in a small degree. met the problems of life at K. H. S. and have decided our course for the future. Therefore. we humbly dedicate the '49 Kay Aiteh Ess to all who have helped build a greater high school-with the sincere hope that this yearbook may cause these memories to grow more vivid with the years and become a living symbol of our happy high school days.

Betty Stephens Directed by Miss Robertson 985' The class of 1949 presented as its senior play, One Foot in Heaven , written by Anne Coulter Martens from the true novel by Hart- zell Spence. The play portrays the difficulties as well as the humorous experiences of a minister who fights the prejudices and changes the lives of the people in his new parish in a typical town of the early twentieth century. Reverend William Spence, his wife Hope, and their son, Hartzell, and daughter, Eileen, are faced with the task of making livable a dilapidated old parsonage. With the help of kindly Dr. Romer, they settle the disputes of their congregation and are beginning the con- struction of a new church and parsonage when their hopes are wrecked. Hartzell, by mistake, gives their quarterly pay to a tramp: Mrs. San- dow, a rich widow, withdraws her support from the new Ehurchz Rev. Spence is injured at the time that he is to preach the conference sermon: and Major Cooper, the head of the official board, charges the minister with heresy. However. Bishop Sherwood intercedes, and the so-called heresy is found to be the Bishop's own comments. The penitent rebels return to the fold, and the Spence family, with an eye to the future, leave the old parsonage forever.

Alfred Gutstein Arthur Flickinger Betsy DeBelius . Kathleen Buuck David Moses Amos Hall Director, Miss Robertson This year was the twentieth anniversary of the Wig and Paint Dramatic Club. The celebra- tion of this event called for a dramatic produc- tion that would demonstrate the talents, skills and equipment that twenty years of training and experience had given the club. The play chosen was As You Like It , the delightful Shakespearian comedy. As the play opens, we are introduced to Or- lando, who is unjustly persecuted by his elder brother Oliver. Orlando is soon to wrestle with Charles, the Duke's wrestler, and Oliver contrives with Charles to kill him during the match. We then find that recently the former Duke has been banished by his elder brother Fred- erick and has gone to live in the Forest of Arden with a loyal band of lords. Rosalind, the banished Duke's daughter, had been retain- ed at court with her cousin Celia. As the two cousins are talking in the court garden, they are joined by Touchstone, the court fool, and Le Beau, a courtier.. who tells them of the wrestling match which will soon take place there. Then Duke Frederick, Charles and Or- lando enter. When Rosalind sees Orlando she falls in love with him at first sight. Then, to the amazement of the crowd that is watching. Orlando foils Oliver's plans by defeating Charles. Page Forty-Eight SHAKESPEARE'S Hiowever. when Frederick finds Orlando to be the son of one of his former enemies, Or- lando is warned by Le Beau to leave the coun- try. So with his faithful servant, Adam, he flees to the Forest of Arden. When Duke Frederick finds out that the fighter has taken a liking to Rosalind, he ban- ishes her also. But because the two cousins like each other so well they decide to leave together disguised and take Touchstone with them. Rosalind takes the part of a boy. Gany- meade, while Celia becomes a country maid. Aliena. In their disguises they. too, set out for the Forest of Arden. On reaching Arden, Rosalind, Celia, and Touchstone come upon two shepherds: Silvius, who is love-sick over the shepherdess Phebe. and Corin. who offers shelter to the three weary exiles. Meanwhile, Orlando and Adam have met the banished Duke and his merry band, and are living with them. Poor Orlando, who still has on his mind, begins the beautiful Rosalind hanging love songs on the trees. Rosalind and Celia find these, and, still concealing her identity. Rosalind speaks to Orlando saying that she will cure him of his love-sickness if he will come to her every day and woo her as if she was his Rosalind. However. one day Orlando does not show up on time and Rosalind fears that he does not love her any more. But then, a strange man comes to her and relates how Orlando saved his life from a lioness. but was wounded him' self in the struggle. The stranger proves to be Oliver. who was sent by Frederick to get Or- lando. Oliver repents for his former deeds and falls in love with Celia, in her disguise as Aliena. To complicate matters. Phebe falls in love with Ganymede who is really Rosalind. Rosa- lind decides the time has come to make known her identity. This she does very cleverly. In the final scene she is married to Orlando, Oli- ver to Celia, Silvius to Phebe. and Touchstone to Audrey. a country wench he has humorous- ly courted throughout the play.

AS YOU LIKE IT Page Forty-Nine THE CLASS OF 48 PRESENTS Ring Around Elizabeth , a sentimental, yet merry, three-act comedy by Charl Armstrong, was presented by the senior class of 1948 under the able direction of Miss Thelma Eminger. The stage was transformed as if by magic, to a livable and smart American home. As the curtain is drawn, we find Laurette Styles CPat Greeni, a little old woman, who is constantly meddling in other people's business, talking to Hubert. Darrell Traster portrays Kimi Hubert, the oldest charter member of the vo- lunteer fire department, who is always arous- ing the household with his own fire alarm. The pair are discussing, in an argumentative man- ner, their memories. Mercy CPat Hartl is the brainy, spoiled child of fifteen who keeps her audience wide awake with her tantrams. Pat Graybill plays the role of Elizabeth Cherry, the head of the household, who has just received a legacy of S1500 in which the whole family is interested. 45 ...f lla: I ll il ti lr s ji r Page Fifty RING AROUND ELIZABETH Elizabeth's other daughter, Jennifer tMary Heywoodl. is the elder of the two by three years. Jenny has a crush on a man approxi- mately twice her age. He is Andy Blayne CPhil Conklinb, a lazy but amusing fellow. whom Elizabeth wishes to meet for her daughters welfare. Vida CPaula Sheetsb is the bossy maid who threatens to quit a half dozen times a day. Ralph Cherry tLeland Jarrettb. Elizabeth's hus- band. is a dullard that keeps himself and all his family in a rut. To offset this rut, Elizabeth invites a good friend Irene fSue Stromanl. from the city to give the family a boost. r ' 'il Steiff With all the new excitement, Elizabeth loses her memory all the way back to her school days. During this lapse she proceeds to tell all the members of her family what she thinks of strangers in her house. She finds Andy amus- ing and so proceeds to take him from Jenny. Ralph and the rest of the family just try to humor her along. After she is the gossip of the whole town and finds out that Andy is just trying to get her legacy for a south sea expedi- tion. she recovers her memory. All of the household are so relieved at her re- storation that they treat her wonderfully and in turn she sees that she has a lovable family. ., we-..,,, H-,Isl 153i1?,l U l HA P if I . vs Page Fifty-One THE CLASS OF '50 PRESENTS Daffy Edwards ,...,,, Mathilda Brooks Fred Edwards .,.....

M iss Bessie Power The Christmas season in the Edwards' household is much the same as that in other American homes-it has its joys and its prob- lems. Daffy Edwards, the teen-age ice-skating enthusiast, starts off the Christmas vacation in a most joyous spirit. Mary Phillips, her girl friend, offers her brand of advice in securing Daffy's latest heart throb, Jerry Burns. But then their love-making plans are dampened suddenly by the receipt of a message which announces the coming visit of the Brookses- Mathilda, Horace and Juanita. Although Daffy had sent to Mathilda for help in breaking up the romance of Fred Edwards, Daffy's brother, and Millicent Russell, one of the prettiest girls in the local college, she did not foresee the un- fortunate events that were to be ushered in by the visitation of the Brookses-especially Cousin Mathilda. Agnes, the semi-invalid mother of Daffy and Fred, continues the plans for the dinner that night at which the Brookses, Millicent Russell and Ben Hilton, the college professor boy friend of Aunt Leila, are to be guests. These plans are rudely interrupted by the arrival of the Brookses. Cousin Mathilda is the domineering adviser of the family: Juan- ita is the mother's little darling type of bratg Page Fifty-Two 'GTHIN ICE and Horace is a perfect example of a hen-peck- ed husband. Leila, the genial caretaker of the family, welcomes the Brookses. Horace reads Leila and Daffy a poem he has composed in honor of Mathilda. He then discusses with Chester, the head of the house, Chester's can- didacy for the presidency of the Chamber of Commerce of the city. Millicent and Ben ar- rive, and Mathilda shows her first opposition to the romance of Fred and Millicent. Every- one goes off to dinner before the friction reaches explosive dimensions. Horace is persuaded by Daffy to take driv- ing lessons from Ben behind the back of Math- ilda. Ben is turned down again by Lelia in his proposal, although he explains to her the domineering position of Chester over Agnes. Daffy reports to Mary that Mathilda is pro- gressing rapidly in her war on Fred and Milli- cent, much to the delight of Mary. When Fred and Millicent drop in for a minute, the climax finally comes: Mlillicent is humiliated and walks out on Fred and his family. Chester. l realizing that his chances in the election are very slight without the aid of Millicent's father, orders Mathilda to apologize or get out of his house. Mary reports that Daffy's chances with Jerry are not very good. John Russell, Millicent's father, comes and demands the apology of Mathilda: he also withdraws his support from Chester in the election. Things become worse and worse. Finally Daffy, dejected but reformed, sets out to Set all things right, if it is possible. The first sur- prise comes when Agnes goes shopping and looses herself from the i'rule of Chester. The unbelievable happens when Horace tells Math- ilda off and gives Juanita a long-needed spank- ing. Mr. Russell, seeing that Horace can now control Mathilda, re-enters his support for Chester. Ben and Lelia are finally ready to be married: Millicent has Fred's fraternity pin! and Daffy's plans come out perfectly when Jerry rnusters his courage in an invitation to the ice-skating tournament.

The record for the year ended with a total of twenty-one wins and three defeats. The regular season loss put the Comets into second place in the N. E. I. C. The K'ville tournament luck was bad this year. The Comets lost to Nappanee in the New Year's Day Tournament and to Howe Military in the final game of the Sectional. It was an l :J 4 v. overtime game and a real upset to end K'ville's chances before they started. The team averaged forty-four points per game against thirty-five for the opposition. The South Side Archers were stopped for the first time in twelve years. Seven boys will be lost by graduation this spring but Kendallville will have another strong team in 1950.

September 21.-The Wolf Lake Wolves threw a scare into the Comets by forcing them to go 10 tough innings to come through 7 to 6. The Comets got 13 hits to the Wolves' 8 but committed 7 errors. September 24.-The Comets got their first taste of defeat for the year when Ligonier came to town. Jumping into an easy lead the Comets proceeded to fall behind. Ligionier got stronger and a K'ville rally fell short. Lig- onier had 10 hits and 9 runs to the Comets' 6 hits and 8 runs.

The Page fed his horse, wearing a Berhalter, with some Strawser Hanes essary for the com- ing long journey: rode off to his Truelove: went to the coast and in a Shippy sailed away to the land of King Edward. Here he and his Truelove lived happily ever after.
