She, also, was born on a farm near Metamora and attended Metamora all twelve years. Joanne was born to Mr. and Mrs. Ollie Van Coppenolle on September 22, 1935 She was cheer- leader all four years and she thinks that was what she liked most about her high school days.

The experience in his school days that he will remember most is the senior play when he sat in the coconut cake. The stork visited Metamora on April 21, 1936, and stopped at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Welch. It left them a baby girl whom they named Marilyn Lois. Marilyn attended Metamora from the first grade through the twelfth. She'll remember cheerleading when she thinks of her high schooldays, especially the tournaments of '53 CLASS HISTORY Kenneth Garlick, who attended Metamora for 12 years, was especially thrilled when the basketball team won the runner-up trophy from Delta Kenneth was born near Metamora on September q., 1935� to Mr. and Mrs. Ira E.

Keith Smith, only son of Mr. and Mrs. Doyle Smith, was born in Adrian on September 5� 1933 He came to Metamora from Ridgeville in his freshman year. Everything about the junior prom was most pleasing to him. On January 11, 1935� in Riga� Michigan, Mr. and Mrs. Otto Holtz became the proud parents of James Holtz. Jim attended Reed School for eight years and then came for his high school education to M. H. S. Jim thinks the best thing about school is graduating. Richard Roznowski was born quite a way from Metamora. He was born in Chicago, Illinois, on April 25� 193 1� to Mr. and Mrs. Edward Roznowski. Richard started school at Meta- mora, but during grade school he left to go to Fulton for a while. He came back at the beginning of his eighth year.

I, George Tack, do will and bequeath my ability to get along with the girls, especially in ?th period study hall, to Karl McMunn. Also, for that bass voice of yours you may have what is left of the Helps that Jim Miller left to me last year. I, Keith Smith, do will and bequeath to Karl Miller my ability to always keep my car in perfect condition. You may also have my slightly used bobbi pins that were originally Eileen Malburg's. If you set your hair with them every night, it will soon look like mine. I, Alice Suchy, do v ill and bequeath to Edwin Pifer my ability to always take an active part in class discussions. It helps out on your grade if you get in a pinch. Also, you may have my typing eraser, even though it is a little worn down. I got it last year from Mary Ellen Zenk. CLASS WILL I James Holtz, do will and bequeath to Wilbur Nichols my school spirit. Never let it down, Wilbur. You like baseball, don't you?

By the way, I hope you and Wilbur learned a lot from us girls in English class last year. I, Carl Stieb, do will and bequeath to Beverly Wotring my ability to buy new, flashy clothes all the time. Get a job; it helps. You may also keep the Spike Jones record that Allen Pifer left me last year. I, Richard Roznowski, do will and bequeath to Irene Griesinger my front seat in problems class. It keeps you on your toes, Irene. You may also have the tennis shoe that I received from Kenny Langenderfer. From what I hear about some of those girls' physical education classes, you may be able to use an extra one. I, Lanny Gleckler, do will and bequeath to James Mohr my ability to work hard (at home). You may also have Jim Wilson's old set of teeth. It makes it nice; you don't have to brush your own every day. I, Donald Doyle, do will and bequeath my nice clean gym locker to Jim Eisel. Please keep it neat and clean as I always did. I'll also leave you a joke book. It is pretty well worn out now since Kenny Langenderfer used it before I did, but the jokes are still there. I hope you get as much enjoyment out of it as I did. We, the Senior Class, do hereby solemnly swear that the above statements are true and perfectly legal according to all the laws of state and nation. We hereby set our seal this sixth day of May and appoint Miss Ruth Nachtrieb as our sole administrator. WITNESSES SIGNED POEMS ABOUT THE SENIORS John Baden John is not bashful. And he is not shy.

Perhaps this is the reason He has so many pals. Marie Stieb To everyone she is a friend. And her work will never end. She will help you if you a3k Which seems to be her task. Alice Suchy Alice is a brave girl; She'll do most anything. And for entertainment. She likes to dance and sing. Pat Sul1ins Pat is the girl we know Who flirts with all the boys. And sometimes in English She makes a little noise. George Tack George is a friendly lad And sometimes he is bad. Someday he'll probably be a king, 'Cause he can do most anything. Joanne Van Coppenolle She has such pretty blue eyes. And she really hooks the guys. But in English she is a whiz. She passes every little quiz.

Everyone tried to learn and do the things today that would help make him the Good Citizen of the United States tomorrow. THIRD AND FOURTH There are forty-five of us this year--Richfield and Michigan having added a few to our ranks. We study Good Neighbors from far and near so this proved to us that our neighbors are good--far or near. We had a profitable year together. We joined the Junior Red Cross 100 as a good neighbor policy. Reading Circle certificates are our aim and most of us will be able to have one to add to our collection. All the holidays were recognized with room parties with appropriate decorations and treats. Our annual pilgrimage to Toledo and the zoo ended our festivities. Each year graduation classes have greater opportunities with the roads to success more clearly defined. We wish you all success in finding your places in the world-keep- ing it free so we too can plan our own way of life, with liberty and justice for all. It is a big challenge--meet it with knowledge and courage. FIRST GRADE The first and second grades were together the first week of school. However, because of the number of pupils, we now have two rooms this year. When the year began, we had 31. We have had a great deal of moving this year and at the time we have 33. We have had several seasonal parties. We have con- tributed to school programs. Red Cross, and March of Dimes, We have made special study of the seasons, holidays, wild animals, insects, wild flowers, and birds. The last week of school we had a special program for our mothers. Everyone took part. Many of us read Reading Circle books and received cer- tificates. We had a serious epidemic of red measles. Also, we had flu and chicken pox. We had a new reading series this year and enjoyed the new books very much. We had a good time this year. We hope you have a happy summer vacation. SECOND GRADE Our second grade moved around quite a lot at the be- ginning of the year. We spent a week with the first grade and had Mrs. Gleckler as our teacher. We then moved to the little room by the office and enjoyed Mrs. Parker as a teacher. The second week of October found us moving into the fifth and sixth grade room with a new teacher, Mrs. Kime. At the beginning, there were 24 in our grade. Four dropped out, but four new pupils entered. They were Dollie Anderson, Wanda and Cora Pace, and Donnell Medley. We had several parties to which our parents were in- vited. Contributions were made to the March of Dimes and to the Junior Red Cross. Many children read several Reading Circle books and gave reports on them. There was no one that had perfect attendance SECOND CrRADE FIRST ROW: SECOND ROW: THIRD ROW: FOURTH ROW: ABSENT: FIRST ROW: SECOND ROW: THIRD ROW: FOURTH ROW: ABSENT: Brace Gleckler, Carol Flack, Beth Ann Ottgen, Richard Beam, Claudia Loar, Nadine Woodring, John Vershum.

Eugene Sanderson 5 Total OUR VARSITY TEAM JAKES SNYDER Jim, a forward and a very good ball handler, was very valu- able to the team. He was second high scorer and scored mostly on jump shots. He is a senior. DONALD DOYLE Don, a 5' 10 guard with plenty of speed and scrap and known for his ability to steal the ball, will be missed very much next year as he is a senior. Don scored mostly on drive-in and set shots. JERRY TRIPP Jerry, a guard and the only junior on the first five, proved himself to be a big asset for next year's team, Jerry stands 5' 9 and has a good set shot which he used for most of his scoring. JAMES HOLTZ Jim, who stands 6' 3 , was the tallest member of the team. Jim scored mostly from the side of the basket and on tip-ins. This is his last year of basketball. KENNETH GARLICK Kenny was the leading scorer for the team with 318 points. He was hard to stop under the basket, and was a dead shot on his jump shot. Kenny, a 6' 2 center, got many rebounds from both baskets. Kenny is a senior. GEORGE TACK George proved to be an able replacement on the team at for- ward or guard. His scrappy play and speed enabled him to work the fast break. He stands 5' 10 and is a senior. HARRY KING Harry, a 5' 8 senior, played guard and saw limited action but was always there to help out in an emergency. Harry scored mostly on long shots. RICHARD R0ZN0W3KI Dick proved to be an able replacement at either center or forward. He is a six footer and got many rebounds from either basket. Dick is a senior and won't be around to play basket- ball next year.

Tom lawyer By Mark Twain The grade children of the Metamora School presented the operetta, Tom Sawyer, March 27 with Miss Vera Ham directing. Tom Sawyer was full of pranks, but had many redeeming qualities. His Aunt Polly, who adopted him, tried to be stern, but was always won over to leniency by his lovable- ness. Huck Finn, his bosom friend, suggested that they go to the cemetery at midnight to get rid of warts, and they ran into true excitement in discovering Injun Joe, who was there to commit a dark deed. The position of a hidden treasure was revealed, and through their eavesdropping, the boys were enabled to save the lives of Muff Potter and Widow Douglas. Tom, Huck, and Joe Harper became pirates and established their hiding place on a deserted island, going there on an improvised raft, but later giving up their pirate life. Becky Thatcher, whom Tom admired, gave a picnic and the young friends who were invited visited a great cave. Becky and Tom got lost and after all the others had gone, they came across Injun Joe in hiding there and learned the exact spot where the treasure was hidden. A big party was given in celebration of the heroism of Tom and Huck. The Widow Douglas wished to adopt Huck and educate him and he finally consented to this. The boys then showed the treasure they had found and all ended happily. The cast included: Reader of the poem..... Aunt Polly............. Tom Sawyer............. Joe Harper.............

Rob, later known as Sir Gilbert Howe, was stolen when an infant, by his nurse, Meg, who later became the wife of Marto, a gypsy. Rob grew to manhood amongst the gypsies believing Meg and Marto to be his parents. It happened one day, while riding with her fiancee. Lord Craven, Lady Constance Martendale became lost in the woods� They wandered to the gypsy camp where Constance and Rob had met and fallen in love at first sight. Craven objected to Rob's attitude, but in a very funny comedy scene with Marto and Sinfo, he was made to tell Sir George, who later came in search of Constance, that Rob was a charming fellow. Later Rob went to the home of Constance and serenaded her. They planned to elope but were overheard by Craven who informed Sir George, and plans were made to capture Rob. This was successfully accomplished and Rob was thrown into prison, but later escaped. Two years elapsed and Rob came into his estates, his identity having been proven by Meg. He became a successful composer, a friend of the Prince, and a social lion. Con- stance remained true to her love for Rob and on his return to England, he won her for his wife.

M. and was directed by Mrs. H. A. Rush. The comedy takes place in a mid-v estern town on a morn- ing in late spring. Clarice Borland is determined her daughter, Trudi, shall marry Gilroy Gundy, a young globe-trotter, who is rich Miss Letitia Gundy’s nephew and heir. Clarice bribes Madame Gasparilla, a fake medium, to tell Tish that the fates decree her nephew, Gil, must marry Trudi. Although Trudi is in love with Hap Hazard, a pre-medic student, she becomes engaged to Gil, for she doesn’t dare cross her mother who has high blood-pressure. V.Tien it is learned that Gil has been a victim of amnesia and can’t recall what happened to him during a blank period in his life, Hap Hazard and his side-kick, Fats Fulton, de- cide to spring some wives on him. The two brides quarrel furiously over him. Hotchkiss, the butler, suffers from a toothache, but he fears a dentist chair, so Tish sends for a dentist to come to the house.

Unless Dr. Wylie Angell widower and absent-minded college professor, finds a stepmother for his three wild harum-scarums before his rapidly approaching fortieth birthday, his eccentric old uncle, Azarias Peabody, swears he'll disinherit him. As soon as the three Angell Erats hear of their father's predicament, they each loudly declare their favorite for his new wife. Poor Cousin Ruth Alden, the Angell's housekeeper, is in love with Br. Angell, but she is so unattractive she is soon made to realize she is out of the running. The brat's choices for their father's wife have furious quarrels and he somehow manages to get engaged to all three of them. Grandma Grimes and Uncle Azarias--both hot from the farm—come on the scenes and try to help Cousin Ruth out. Ruth finally gets disgusted with the family and leaves. Br. Wylie goes out to find her and the brats decide they like her, too. Ruth and Br. wylie come back married. Ruth has become beautiful and all ends happily. The cast included: Rydrangia Iodine Jimpson..
