There were 32 of us that entered this important building in 1946. Little did we expect that we were getting into something that would affect us for the rest of our lives. It didn’t take us long to get into the swing of things, and before we knew it, we were stumbling up the steps to the seventh grade. Two years later we were initiated into high school as green freshmen. Then we started thinking of projects to help toward our Senior Trip. We sold pen sets, had several car washes, a turkey contest, skating parties, and our Junior Play, “Be Happy? Go Wacky!” In our Senior year we really got our noses to the grind- stone. We had a magazine campaign which broke the school record; also concessions at home games and the four-way tourney, a Senior Play, two cafeteria suppers, and Christmas card sales. Some of our memories linger with us. We remember plainly our trip to Chicago, the time we went to “The Rock and Roll Show,” and the many parties we had out at the “White House.” We have been honored to have Ned Schuler as our president for the last four years. There are eleven of us that have been here twelve years. They are: Tom Pence, Marilyn Swygart, Jan Ohmart, Phil Clingenpeel, Don Drudge, Judy McCullough, Ned Schuler, Don Mylin, Penny White, Larry Davis, and Max Nehler.

While making our annual trip through the S.S. Laketonian, which has been in dry dock since 1958, we were taken on a tour of the Captain’s cabin. To satisfy our curious nature we searched the cabin thoroughly. During our search we found a log, in which was a list of the crew of ’58. Being of an inquisitive nature, also, we asked the Captain about this former crew. Here is what he told us: Commodore Schuler (They liked him so well as president of the class that they made him head of the ship.) was so studious while in high school that he has been hired as a special tutor to tutor the teachers at Laketon. After leaving the crew in 1958, Steve Butterbaugh began play- ing his saxophone in the famous Lawrence Welk Band. They just returned from an around the world concert tour. While in Monaco, Steve met the former Grace Kelly, who introduced him to a beautiful lady singer. We hear that Steve is soon going to return to Monaco. Jan Ohmart has put her gift of gab to good use and is now a world famous orator. One strange thing about her is. she can’t seem to speak very well without music. She got the habit from chorus class. First Mate. Harold Harmon, always had a great love for basket- ball. He is now coaching the world famous girls’ basketball team, “Harold’s Harem.” P.S.: He loves his work. Barbara Entsminger, who was president of so many things while in high school, has written a book entitled. The Poverty and Progress of a President. It is fast becoming a best-seller and is especially popular around Washington, D. C. First Lieutenant, Max Neher, has gone far! So far. in fact, that we don’t know where he is! He is believed to have volun- teered for the job as pilot of the first satellite to the Moon. Larry Davis, with his trombone, and Don Mylin, with his drum, have formed a little musical group known as. “The Cotton Pieken’ Combo.” They are touring the country with their latest hit record, Julie, if you’ll be my Special Angel, At the Hop, ’ Get a Job and Stroll down to the store and buy you some I’enny Loafers and Bobby Soxr Judy McCullough, who was a nurse on the S.S. Laketonian, has become head nurse on the Queen Elizabeth. Her latest project in the field of medicine is making “seasick pills for seasick sailors.” Seamen, Jim Wing and Gene Kirby, put both their secrets of keeping slim together and are now running “Gene’s and Jim’s Slenderella Salon.” Now plump ladies are able to wear jeans (Gene’s) and slim-jims (Jim’s). Darlene Schipper revolutionized the greenhouse business. She has found an amazing new use for it. She is now growing “little green men.” P.S.: She is putting Mars out of business! The last time the Captain saw Donald Drudge, he was taking a beauty nap. He was getting ready to compete for the Mr. America title. Sharon Fairchild, through her love of underwater activities, has become a noted skindiver. She has the world’s collection of skins. She is now exploring the Wabash River chasing her latest victim “The Rockin’ Rollin' River Eel.” Penny White is now editor of the Laketon Daily Blabber. She got her experience by being one of the editors of the gossip column of the Tiger News. Floyd Bradford and Merle Fryer have gone into business to- gether. They now own a printing shop. They are making lots of money. Orpha Louks, who was on the quiet side has now crossed over to the other side and is now starring as Sheena in her own television series. Tom Pence was chef of the ship. (He got his cooking ex- perience that week he stayed with Max Neher.) He became so talented with the pots and pans, and was so good-looking, that he is now doing a television commercial cooking “the weiner the world has awaited.” Marilyn Swygart. during a vacation in Alaska, fell in love with a handsome Eskimo. They are now married and own a thriving business making “Eskimo Pies.” Second Mate, Phil Clingenpeel, has become a world famous electrician. His latest project is lighting up “Darkest Africa.” Sherry Harmeson has changed the color of her hair so much during school that she is now doing it for others. She has her own Beauty Shop in Stringtown. Her sign outside says: “If you would like to die, do it here!” Seaman, Floyd Sims, through his experience narrating the band shows, now has his own radio show. It is called the “Simmie’s Singing Sailor Show.” Glenna Brubaker is now married and is taking over the United States Government. In addition to her husband, Ike, she now has four little Senators. Howard White, known as the eighth wonder of the world, has just completed a space ship to take people on pleasure trips to the Moon. We hear the Class of ’58 is planning a reunion on the Moon. Thus was our curious nature satisfied and we restored the log to its former place. We thanked the Captain for this interesting information and bid a fond farewell to the S.S. Laketonian.

This season featured the inauguration of the Lake ton, Chester Township, Urbana, and Noble Township Junior High Tournament. We battled our way to the championship game only to lose to Noble by three points in a hard-fought contest. Next year should be our year! The Junior High baseball team finished the season with a three won—two lost record. We are now looking forward to a successful track season.

Mr. Joe Ogden Mr. Ray Moore “The Cannibal Queen” The Junior Class presented their class play on Friday evening, October 11, in the high school auditorium. The play, “The Cannibal Queen,” was a farce in three acts. It was the story of Bruce Clyde, a young newspaper reporter, about to be fired, unless he could find some sensational news. Along came Professor Kent with the news that his nephew, Aller, is bringing back a real, live Cannibal Queen from the Solomon Islands. Bruce Clyde was horrified when Allen came back without one. So he induced his fiancee to act like the Cannibal Queen. Everything worked out fine until Ju-Ju, the real Cannibal Queen, arrived. We wish to express our appreciation to Mr. Ray Moore for his patience and guidance in directing our play.

Junior Class Play Sponsored by PARKER IMPLEMENT SALES Silver Lake, Indiana “Hoppsville Holiday” The Senior Class presented their play on Friday evening, April 11, 1958, in the high school audi- torium. The play, “Hoppsville Holiday,” was a comedy in three acts. The story takes place around the 4th of July. Everything boomed, but there were hardly any firecrackers! Liz and Connie, two teen- aged girls, were boy crazy and tried everything pos- sible to-get their men. But there was one obstacle— Aunt Elizabeth. She was old-fashioned and tried to hold the girls down in every unbelieveable way. The girls weren’t about to give up without a showdown, so as you can imagine, boys were as thick as flies. Naturally, they all had to show off the things that they could do best, such as jitterbugging, squaw wrestling, and even upsetting the center table. It ended up as the most explosive 4th of July ever. We wish to express our thanks to Mr. Boyer for directing our play. Standing: Philip Clingenpeel, Max Neher, Sharon Fairchild.

Immediately following, conventions were attended. Later, we sold pecans, and had a coat check and ball feeds at the basketball games. We chose our ideal ladies and in the spring had a party in their honor. At Christmas time we had our traditional gift exchange and our caroling party. All through the year we had a lot of good times both in service to the community and in fun. We hope people will always remember us for the Sunshine we have spread.

They live forever in our hearts instead. How exciting these years have been, With their many problems and our will to win. The path was rugged, but the goal is near, And We face the future without doubt or fear. The encouragement of a teacher, the smile of a friend— They last forever, they never end. Our memories will linger thru many a year; Thru darkness or sunshine, thru sorrow or cheer. How fast the years in school have fled, Four years of life together, dead. No, not forgotten! Never dead! They live forever in our hearts instead. 5 a r$« IB�
