In the first grade Lucille got her mouth pasted shut and Don M. got a spanking, in the second grade a new school was built. QSome people have ideas, but we know it wasn't us., For the first two years, we had Miss Zimm-5'man, in the third grade: Miss Toothacker was privileged to have us little angels. The class made scrapbooks of people of other lands. In the fourth grade Miss Rhea Yoder let us have projects in the sand table. The fifth grade found us with two teachers, Mr. Perry G. Miller, and Mrs. Tom Sovine. People say we were rowdies but we don't believe it. Dis- cipline was different in the sixth grade with Mr. Walter Babb. Mr. Babb was elected township trustee that year and left us at the end of the first semester. Miss Rhea Yoder took over the second semester, and we came back to all our old tricks. Many of us participated in Tom Sawyer , an operetta. Hooray! We arrive in Junior High! Now we got lockers and can go from one room to another! We get awfully restless because we have no recess. My, how time flies! We arrived in High School. Well, we got a few things accomplished in our Freshman year. The class colors, green and white, were chosen. We chose lvlr. Overmyer as our sponsor. The initiation was easy. The return party was really something. We also sponsored a skating party. ln the Sophomore year, we elected Donald Yoder, President: Jeanne Schrock, Vice-President: Paul Swartzentruber, Secretary: Martha Yoder, Reporter, Toby Miller, Sergeant-at-arms: and Mr. Winger as Sponsor. We were too busy studying to pass them there old tests to get much else done. In our Junior year things really began to happen. We elected Paul Swartzen- truber as President: Jeanne Schrock, Vice-Presidentg Martha Yoder, Secretary, Donald Yoder, Treasurer: Dalis Ann Yoder, Reporter: and Miss Mary Berkrnan and Miss Annis as our Sponsors. First we gave a play, Jane Eyre . This was the first draxna ever to be put on in Middlebury. Next we got our rings and flashy green sweaters. Our Banquet went off with a bang! Of course, we were a bit scared in formals, but all enjoyed it anyway. y The Senior year found us jumping and raring to go. We elected Charles Yoder, President, Don Yoder, Vice-President, Martha Yoder, Secretary, Jeanne Schrock, Treasurer: Virginia Schrock, Reporter and Mr. Immel and Miss Shoup as our Sponsors. We had some roaring class meetings but they tamed down. The first thing we did was to put on The Campbells Are Coming , it was the best play ever put on in M. H. S. It was a great success. We spent many hours in getting out this annual. Next we sponsored the Foghorn, the gossip that went in there, Wow! We sold concessions at Basketball games and sponsored a puppet show. As this book goes to press we are still undecided as to where we will go on our Senior trip and who will remain here at M. H. S. But we hope that we have made some cherishing friends and have done something to better this school. We wish to thank everyone who has made this the farnous class of 49ers . 24 CLASS WILL Since we are leaving this dear old school, to undertake new enterprises, we wish to leave a few things which will make better or worse the best school on earth, dear old M.

Z5 CLASS PROPHECY There came a vision of the future, The veil was rolled away, I saw the Forty-niners, In quite another day. So I wrote as I saw it-- As the future was revealed to me, And I saw twenty ships sailing, On life's rough and rugged sea. Martha is now teaching our children, About our country so great, She makes them learn all the Presidents, And the Capitals of every State. Jeanne is now in dark Africa, A missionary so brave, Night and day she teaches the savages, Their precious souls to save. Don Yoder is a great professor, He teaches the subject of Math, He is so absent minded, It almost makes you laugh. Paul is employed by a chemical company, He is now a chemical engineer, He has all the modern equipment, In a lab that is so sheer. Charles finished his college work, And received his precious degree-- The next day he hung out his shingle, Which said, Charles Yoder, M. D. Virginia Schrock is a leader-- In the fashion world, you see, She tells the women how to dress, Which is, Oh! so lovingly. Dalis Ann is a great actress, She lives in Hollywood, In all the hits she is the star, For she really is very good. Don Mockler who was a Middie Star, In the World Series next appeared-- He pitched for the Cleveland Indians, While thousands watched and cheered. Gloria is now a beautician, Making all the girls so nice, Which goes to prove the old saying, That girls are made of spice . Lucille is a private secretary, Her boss is so nice and kind, He says she is the best wife, That he will ever find. Toby specilized in farming, And is growing corn and wheat, He sells it to the baker, Who will make the bread that we eat. Kirne is now head operator, But she can't get it into her head, To stop listening in and hearing, Everything that is said. Eli is still selling meat, He has a market of his own, He is the very best butcher, This town has ever known. Roger is out at Krider Nurseries, Hoeing with sweat on his brow, Virginia Carper is cooking his meals, Because she is his dear wife now. Bob Barnes is a sailor boy, Out on the ocean so blue, He was finally promoted to Captain, And is directing the shipping crew. Elden and Harold couldn't leave their chickens The business still was nice, They raise the finest broilers-- And get the highest price. Leanna is a nurse, Alleviating pain-- She helps the sick people, As good health they try to gain. Harry is a mechanic, His work is to be adored, He fixes any make of car-- From Cadillac to Ford. In the same way that it came, The vision disappeared, But this startling revelation, Made us all feel rather weird. To each is given a bag of tools, A shapeless mass and a book of rules, And each must fashion ere life is flown A stumbling block or a stepping stone.'

Z9 JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY In the fall of 193 8, twenty small excited students started their educational career in the old Middlebury School Building, In 1939, however, we moved along with the rest of the pupils of M. H. S. to the new school building. Entering Junior High, we had many new experiences. We started the year by electing Bud Cripe as our President: Marcia Miller, Vice-President: Gail Miller as Secretary-Treasurerg and Mr. Shetler as our Sponsor. Starting our eighth year in school, we elected Julian Schrock as our Presi- dent: Gail Miller as Vice-President: Bonnie Lou Miller as Secretary-Treasurerg and Miss Virginia Yoder as our Sponsor. In 1946, we anxiously entered High School. We chose as our class officers: Gail Miller, President: Allen Norris, Vice-President: Bud Cripe, Secretary: Tom Yoder, Treasurer: Dick Bowman, Reporter: and Mr. Sample as our Sponsor. The highlights of our Freshman year were the initiation party. The return party to the Sophomores and a picnic at Mr. Sample's cottage at Baldwin Lake. Returning to M. H. S. for our Sophomore year, we elected Allen Norris as Presidentg Bonnie Lou Miller as Vice-President, Ruby Eash as Secretary: Julian Schrock as Treasurerg and Judy Cummings as Reporter. We again chose Mr. Sample as our Sponsor. In October we gave an initiation party for the Freshmen. The class placed their order for class rings and pins.

We elected Julian Schrock as our Presidentg Gail Miller as Vice-President: Bonnie Lou Miller as Secretaryg Bud Cripe as Treasurer: Dick Bowman as Reporter. To increase our class funds we sold concessions at the basketball games the first semester. The height of our Junior year was the pre- senting of our first class play.

With the above there are now forty members in our class. A -number of our boys are taking an active interest in basketball and are learning the fundamentals of the game. The class elected Gayle Albert and Ruth Hostetler for their cheerleaders. We are learning a lot of interesting games in our gym periods. We are having lots of fun and are looking forward to a lot more. Next year we hope to reach .Iunior High so that we can have the exciting time of changing class.

Because there were too many pupils i.n each grade for one teacher, fourteen third graders, eight fourth graders, and ten fifth graders were put into one room. Mary Ellen Lehman left our room to attend the Christian Day School so that left us with thirty-one pupils. We are a happy group of boys and girls that have learned that school work is a pleasure. A flagstaff and flag, a new table, maps, globe, and books are new equipment we are enjoying.

The first to leave was Edna Paulette Bicknell who went to Eaton, Indiana on October 6 to live with her 'father . Beverly Stalter attends school only a half-day because she isn't strong enough to come all day. Mary Ellen Kauffman came part time for one six-weeks period, but she had a relapse of rheumatic fever and is in our class no longer. Homer Schrock left at Christmas ti.rne to go to Shipshewana. During exams Ester J. Miller got rheumatic fever and had to quit school. She will not return to us since they are moving to Clinton. New pupils in our room are Dave Johnson from Jefferson, who came right after Christmas and Mary Miller from Honeyville. We hope that these new pupils like us as much as we like them. . 40 glaircf, gourllz and gifllz graded gourllz grade 41 THIRD GRADE ROW ONE: Clarence Whirledge, Stephen Swihart, Paul Short, Donavan Miller, David Steel, Elmer Stutzman.

Losing to Jimtown, Wakarusa and two games to Concord to account for the four loses. Hitting honors went to Bud Cripe who slugged out an average of .407 with freshman Ronnie Linton second with an .385 average. The battery for the Middies was Don Mockler and Bud Cripe on the mound with Tom Slug Miller behind the plate. Freshman Ronnie Linton was outstanding in the outfield by making some very good catches with Roger Kindy, Carmon Crips, and Don Kauffman zipping the ball around in the infield. The Middies have five freshxnen, two sophomores, and six juniors to keep the baseball team rolling along to win for M. H. S. The Middies Basketball team was a considerable amount better than last year's team. The Middies coached under their new coach, Robert Biddle, came through in the county tourney, after being picked to lose to a weak Millersburg team, to end up in the final game with their great rivals from Concord. The Middies bowed to the tall Concord team by eleven points on one of the counties most unpredictable tournaments ever to be witnessed. Several players made the county teams. Bruce Barwick, Don Mockler and Don Kauffman were placed on the first team with Bud Cripe on the second string followed by Carmon Cripe, and Dick Bowman on the third team. The second team had a good season by winning 10 and losing 9. The varsity has all but three members coming back this next season. With the second team players and the members of the varsity coming back the school will have a well represented team for the coming season. M. H. S. B asketball Schedule M. H. S.

DON CRIPE Beak , a junior, stands 5' 11 , is one of the Middies sharpest shooters, in fact he is one of the sharpest shots in the county. Don is able to hit from any spot on the floor and is an expert when it comes to free throws. Don will be back next year to help the Middies win their games for old M. H. S. BRUCE BARWICK Bruce, a junior who came here this year from North Webster to star on the Middies team, has been one of the classiest shots in the county.

Dick is noted for his medium long shots and his keen floor play. Dick will be back to spur the Middies on to more victories. JULIAN SCHROCK Julian, one of the boys who were moved up from the second team this year, is getting in some good playing for the next year's team.

Much to her family's disgust, she breaks with sturdy, dependable Jeff Scudder and announces her engagement to a young snob, Kingston Campbell. Learning that Kingston's aristocratic mother believes that the Brannigans are hillbillies, and that Kingston and his mother are coming for a visit to find out the truth, the resourceful Brannigans disguise themselves as hillbillies and re- ceive the guests during the absence of Kaye, who has hastened to a nearby city to purchase everything from caviar to tuxedoes, in order to impress the Camp- bells. The Brannigans appear as hillbillies and carry guns. They frighten the Campbells half out of their wits by mistaking them for revenooers . An old hen lays an egg in Mrs.. Campbell's ritzy hat and Jeff starts a feud with Kingston and chases him with a rifle. Mrs. Campbell faints and is acciden- tally revived with a jug of moonshine, under the influence of which she makes some startling revelations regarding her past life and identity. At last Kingston indignantly refuses to marry Kaye, and the Brannigans rejoice that their scheme has worked. Then just as the Cannpbelll are about to depart, in walks Kaye, wrathfully demanding explanations. The Brannigans finally maneuver to put the Caxnpbells to complete rout and Jeff turns caveman in order to win Kaye. JANE EYRE--Junior Play On the evenings of April 15 and 16, 1948, twelve nervous juniors presented, Jane Eyre . It was under the capable direction of Miss Berkman. It was the first classic drama ever to be presented in Middlebury. Jane Eyre, a governess, came to Thornfield Hall, the home of Edward Rochester, to care for his ward, Adele Yerens, Not knowing that Mr. Rochester is already married to an insane woman, Bertha, Jane falls in love with him and plans are made for their wedding. When Mr. Rochester's wife is discovered, Jane runs away from Thornfield Hall. Three years later she returns to find Mr. Rochester blind, his wife dead and part of Thornfield Hall destroyed. She stays and cares for him until his sight is regained and plans are again made for their wedding. 68 JUNIOR-SENIOR.

A Safety Patrol Squad was organized at the begirming of the school year with boys from grades 5-6 making up the personnel. Four posts were established and you have probably seen the boys on duty, doing what they can to make our school traffic safer, Day by day these boys have been on the job in all kinds of weather, and the task has not been easy. Illness, lack of substitutes, and rainy days cause many headaches for the Safety Patrol Squad: however, they have maintained their watches in good order. As the days go along the Squad hopes to become better organized and to continue its program as of the present year. To all the Patrol Boys, and to the teachers who have worked with the Squad, we say, Well Done?'. 77 XT AUTOGRAPHS Oqufog mpg: K .i A 1 L ' 111 wuswonm um..-.gs-ual..-any IALIUXTI 17511 un.-u.-.I-.u an 82 ,T Middlebury Co-op Creamery Co.
