FIRST ROW: Linda Luedtke, secretary; Carol Bartos, vice-president; Stuart Jew- ell, president. SECOND ROW: Mr. Bo- vard, head sponsor; Clark Mullen, treas- urer. Second Year for Class Of ’59 After a very confusing first year in the new Merrillville High School, the Class of 1959 bounced back with a flying start in their second season in the new habitat. Participation in all clubs and extra-curricular activities was typical of this class of energetic boys and girls. Members of the class were the first to participate in the newly inaugurated freshman-sophomore yearly play, under the direction of Mr. Conner Sophomores won some of the leading roles offered in the play. Class officers were Stuart Jewell, president; Carol Bartos, vice-president; Lin- da Luedtke, secretary; and Clark Mullen, treasurer. Guidance in their many pro- blems and decisions was offered by the sponsors: Mrs. Seale, Mr. Bovard, Mr. Demaree, and Mr. Beasley. Class members selected black pull-over or cardigan sweaters with white num- erals as significant of their class, and received them on the last day before the Christmas vacation. The class also sponsored a dance which had a large turn- out and was successful. A number of class members participated in varsity athletics, clubs, and fine arts. There were 1 38 members in the class. The Class of 1959 will have the distinction of being the first class to graduate from the new Merrillville High School after having spent all four years of their high school careers in the new building. 20
