MIDDIETTE Published by the Middiette staff of Middlebury High School, Middlebury, Indiana Volume 23 Likedead, remembered footsteps on old floors --Edwin Arlington Robinson Table of Contents Student Life.........................4 Sports .............................16 Academic ...........................32 Organizations.......................46 Album...............................66 Advertisements.....................104 The first high school was established in Middlebury in 1885. Prior to that public education was housed in a brickbuilding constructed in 1857. A new building was constructed in 1907, and in 1923 a new gym was added. These were located in the area where the Middlebury cold storage is now located. The present high school was built in 1939, and the gym was added in 1948. In 1957 the stage and dressing rooms were added and a new building was constructed to house the Industrial Arts classes. 2 We ll Remember . . . As students lookback on the years they spent roaming the halls of Middlebury High School, communicating with fellow M.H.S. students, and participating in various activities, they can't help but feel a longing in their hearts to relive those golden moments. Hardships such as book reports, term papers, exams, dodging teachers in the halls, running through the rain and snow to get to classes and going to the office for tardy slips, seem minute as students recall M.H.S. school days. The future holds in store a new high school with new facilities. Northridgewill offer more opportunities, better facilities, and in general more room to move around. Proms, class plays, convocations, ball games, parties, musicals, concerts, play days, pictures, and just being with friends , will always linger in the hearts of previous M.H.S. students. The tears that are shed will be tears of happiness as we remember our school days at M.H.S.

Team Ends Middle Era with Winning Season The Middlebury Middies finished their basketball career with a fine J 4 - -6 season. Since this was the last year for MHS, the team put forth great effort to end the Middie era in fine style. Some of the outstanding players included brothers Steve and Doug Yoder, who led the team in scoring respectively. Other fine players were Jim Shoup, who was third in team scoring, Tom Sherck, a scrappy guard, and Jay Bistline, who was the team's tallest at 6'3 . Carl Eash, a fine defensive guard, and Tom Adkins, a relief center, added to the Middie line-up. Doug will return next year aided by classmate Galen Hershberger who proved to be a defensive coach's dream as he stopped leading opponents throughout the season. Another fine prospect was freshman Dean Weirich. 20 Doug Yoder tries hard to out-jump a Jimtown player but can't quite do it. Jim Shoup moves in for another two-points to aid the Middies in an easy win over Bethany. Steve Yoder grabs another rebound ev.en though he seems surrounded by white jerseys.

Miss Picard led the girls in vigorous basketball practices in the morning before school. The girls were rewarded for their efforts by receiving awards at the end of the year. G.A.A. gives the girls of Middlebury a chance to participate in activities, make new friends and keep physically fit. Basketball and volleyball were the main features of the year, but swimming, horseback riding and skating are included too.

Class 1938 ACADEMIC Math and Science, Important Tools in the Laboratory is an important part of any science program. Here scientific observations are being made by senior Bruce Sellers and eighth grader David Volgehang. Being able to apply mathematical formulas is very important. Mark Frederick and Steve Yoder are demonstrating the application of two formulas to their classes. 34 Rapid Development of Our Space Age World The science and mathematics departments offered numerous courses to the Middlebury student this year. In math they ranged from General Math to Introductory Analysis. In science they ranged from General Science to Physics. The main objective of the math courses was to help students ready themselves for college and for their future after their high school graduation. To some, math and science were just required subjects which they managed to stumble through and pass. For others, who realized their responsibilities were not only responsibilities but learning abilities, there w'ere lots of interesting and sometimes exciting moments. The main objective of the science department is to help educate for college but mainly for life after graduation. It showed how science plays a part of everyday life and taught the students how to apply science to every day life. During eighth grade science, Gerald Miller carefully performs one of the required experiments. Dog gone it! 1 burned the beans again! Ben Corson and Brad Stouder look over the Foghorn during journalism. Brad points out a sports article he has written. The English department uses the new speed reading machine as Willard Beachy looks on. No, Erma, it is not a bird house. It is a theater in Shakespeare's day. 36 Spanish students receive help from Miss Hoover. Anita, why aren't you paying attention? Express, Comprehend, and, Communicate Communication is a necessity in the advanced age in which we live. English and Spanish students attempted to meet this need through continuous use of the tools of language. This has been accomplished to some degree through an independent study initiated this year in junior and senior English classes. The expression of these studies were conveyed through oral and written reports. The Journalism class learned to communicate information by writing for the Foghorn, while the Speech class presented ideas through use of the oral medium. For some students the Spanish language will be important in future studies of work. HereatM.H.S. a three year course of study is offered. A portable language lab and new teaching techniques make the learning and the teaching of Spanish easier. Gerald Miller and Steve Mockler listen attentively to Spanish tapes during class. 37 During a brief study period Ernest Cross takes time out to study a map of England. During the new world problems class Mr. Shellenberger was required to point out many countires and discuss their importance. Political Year Made For a special project in government Larry Yoder was required to portray a senator from Alaska. Social Studies Year World tensions and current problems were discussed in history classes this year along with past happenings . The social studies student seeks to become informed about peoples and cultures of other lands. He also examines various governmental systems. Supplementing the program were guest speakers, relevant films, and a few' field trips. Politics played a major part in the discussions since this year was an election year. A mock election, sponsored by the Seniors, was held at M.H.S. M.H.S. students participating in the program are now better citizens, having added to their knowledge of the world. Students Learn the Business Dilemma The business students at Middlebury High School were kept quite busy this year. The typing I classes were introduced to the typewriters, while the typing II classes learned to use the dictaphones, procedures in filing, and adding machines. Those interested in secretarial jobs worked hard at shorthand I. There was no shorthand II this year. The bookkeeping classlearned to balance ledgersand journals. They had two practice sets besides being confronted with tax returns. Much more was also involved in preparing the students for future careers. In typing II students were taught to work with office machines in preparation for a secretarial job. Getting your fingers tangled up? Cindy Schrock found that learning to type wasn't easy in her typing I class. Baffled, Sandy Mast hurriedly struggles to finish an assignment before class. 39 Students Enrich Lives with Music and Art Mrs. Hochstetler prepared the choir for the Christmas Concert. Great interest was displayed by students again this year as they actively participated in the music department. Students were also given an opportunity for self-expression through the art department. Through courses in Fine Arts, students are given the chance to escape from the daily tensions that often result from studying. The art class enjoyed several field trips including one to Goshen College and one to Chicago. Among the choir's activities were concerts, contest, and participation in the Elkhart Music Festival. The highlight of the year was the production of My Fair Lady. Included in the band's activities were a performance at Ball State high school day, concerts, and contest. Through participation, M.H.S. students developed their talents and enriched their lives. The art class inspired creative drawing from its students. Pep band practices numbers before playing at a big game. See Glen blow. Glen blows good. Glen blew it. The band practices hard every morning under the leadership of Larry Shafer. Plaster Paris figures represent different activities of M.H.S. 41 Larry Miller skillfully displays the use of an electric sander. Skills Acquired Through Industrial Arts This year the Industrial Arts department of Middlebury High School offered interesting, as well as educational, opportunities for students. In the Freshman Year there is a semester of electricity. The sophomore year is an introduction to woodworking. Arts Mechanics is taught the first semester of the Junior year, and the last semester is spent in metal working. During the Senior year, a student may select any project that he chooses. This year as always many fine projects were made. Even the Senior boys created some fine projects, that is when they weren't busy throwing small blocks of wood at each other. Next year the facilities of Northridge will be added to this department. David Slabach finds his shop class an interesting relief from the hard everyday grind of school work. 42 Home Ec. Challenges Future Homemakers From sewing to cooking to making an afghan, that is what the girls in Home Economics class learned to do this year. The girls in Home Economics were also taught home management, child care, and other items that would be needed after school and after marriage. They drew blueprints of their dream house that they would like to live in after they get married. They were taught how to rearrange a room so it won't look cluttered . They took field trips to different places such as to a dress factory, a model home, and a school for retarded children. Another activity was preparing a savory meal for the faculty. Anna Mast learns to concoct some new and exciting dishes during Home -Ec. Under the direction of Miss Hooley, Kathy Miller is given the opportunity to make some of her own clothes. 43 Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall . . . Humpty Dumpty had a great fall! Randy Hostetler displays his trampoline skill during a Phys. -Ed period. Students Discover Need for Good Health The study of the body and its functions is a fascinating experience as M.H.S. health students can verify. Mental health as well as physical health was studied and discussed. The students learned the importance of good health and the tragedies of various diseases. While the development of the mind was stressed in health classes, physical education courses helped to develop the body. Exercises were a common way to start the period while activities included volleyball, basketball, softball, tumbling, wrrestling, and jumping on the trampoline. Through participation, students also learned the code of good sportsmanship. Tilt his head, open his mouth, hold his nose, and blow. These are the steps in performing mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. During health class, Judy Hershberger and Diane Showalter study a chart of the human anatomy. 45 ORGANIZATIONS Alberta Hartzler Roberta Jackson Hope Kauffman Student Needs Discussed hv Student Council The Student Council was very active this year. It was composed of 3 members from each class, plus the officers elected. The S.O.S. met during activity period. The Dress Code was a topic of much discussion. The S.O.S. sponsored the annual Christmas party. The S.O.S. also sponsored a Carnival at the school in which each club and class had a booth. There were also various displays . The Student Council represented the en -tire student body, and was sponsored by Mrs. Miller and Mr. Gordon Kauffman. The S.O.S. members listen to Carl's suggestion. FIRST ROW: N. Oesch, J.

Honor Students Are Inducted into N.H.S. The National Honor Society was created to promote such qualities as leadership, scholarship, service, and character. This club contains five percent of the sophomore class, ten percent of the junior class, and fifteen percent of the senior class students that are eligible. The induction of new members occurs once every year. They are chosen by the faculty, and this decision is kept secret until the ceremony. This traditional ceremony is always very exciting, especially for the newly elected members. Sue Balyeat; Sally Yoder; Galen Hershberger; Bruce Sellers, Vice President; Steve Yoder, President; John Coil; Patti Kindy. Erma Miller; Bob Miller; Julie Frederick; Larry Miller; Grace Bontrager; Elnora Troyer was not present. Middiette Staff Compiled Book with Memories The Middiette staff has been working hard this year to complete the yearbook on time. Most of the work was done during the 7th period of every school day. Some of the work could not be done during school. Our photographer, Brice Bock, had to spend many Saturdays and after school hours collecting ad pictures. To help prepare themselves for the job of creating a yearbook co-editors Susan Balyeat and Sally Yoder attended a two week course in yearbook production at Ball State University, Muncie, Ind. Ruth Troyer and Patti Kindy were the business managers . Don Miller and Larry Yoder wrote the copy for the activities. And Gloria Heaven and Donita Mishler did the typing. Miss Hoover, Middiette sponsor, helps co-editors Sally Yoder and Susan Balyeat prepare the layout of the Middiette. Ruth Troyer and Patti Kindy, business managers, were in charge of the financial matters. of 69, Plus a Historical Review of M.H.S. The copywriters, Don Miller and Larry Yoder, were kept busy as they wrote copy to aid the Middiette Staff. Gloria Heaven and Donita Mishler proved to be a valuable asset to the Middiette Staff as they typed copy, identifications, and captions. Brice Bock, the photographer, displayed his talents by taking shots of various school activities. £1 Hershberger; M. Frederick; C. Corson; B. Stouder. THIRD ROW: S. Yoder; S. Miller; B. Sherck; B.

Bowman; J. Dalis Bowman devoted much of her time to typing and helping with various surveys for the Foghorn. Foghorn Informs MIIS Pupils of Happenin The publishing of the four page Foghorn'' takes considerable work and time. Much time is spent doing research and writing interesting articles. The Foghorn includes such things as news stories, fact-findingeditorials, and humorous stories. The chief editor for the first semester this year was Ben Corson. During the second semester Dalis Bowman took over because Ben graduated. Mrs. Miller was always there to offer valuable information that helped the Foghorn Staff to do the great job they did. Producing a paper that was interesting and would sell was a hard task and took many after school hours of work. The Foghorn Staff met this challenge with a special zeal this year to make the last year of its publication here at M.H.S. a success. Art Club Creates Ski Club Enjoys Skiing The Art Club provided interesting, as well as educational, meetings. These meetings provided opportunities for members to create many different projects in art. One of the activities sponsored by the Art Club this year was a bake sale. This bake sale helped earn money for the Art Club's field trip. On their field trip, the Art Club went to Chicago. The members visited many interesting art museums and developed even deeper interests in art. The Ski Club engaged in many thrilling experiences at Mt. Wawasee as they learned how to ski. Approximately 35 members participated in the sport. The club provided entertainment and learning experiences for M.H.S. students. H.S. Art Club--FIRST ROW: K. Want , D. Kalb, V. Miller, C.

Spanish Club: a Club ol Spanish Customs All second and third year Spanish students who are interested in broadening their knowledge of the Spanish language have the opportunity of being in Spanish Club. During meetings students have the chance to increase their understanding of the Spanish language through communication with other students. This is accomplished by having discussions and participating in games which require the use of the language. Spanish Club field trips are taken to give members the opportunity to visit Spanish speaking districts, and taste various Spanish foods. The Spanish Club holds its meetings during activity period, and is sponsored by Miss Hoover, who heads the department. 54 Librarians Assist Inquisitive M.H.S. Students The student librarians proved to be a very important factor for all who wanted to use the library. They assisted Mrs. Smith in many of the tasks necessary to keep the library in a top notch condition. They helped the students in many ways. Some of these included: checking out books, collecting library fines, and keeping shelves in neat order. They also assisted students in finding reference materials and special matters which were kept on reserve. The student librarians could choose to receive a credit by taking library science. These credits are helpful in graduating. The librarians also had a chance to join Library Club, which all of them decided to do. The club met regularly and chose officers. Debra Reploglc is busy signing out two of the many reference materials that can be found in the library. Linda Yoder busily shelves some books which have been returned to the library.

Y.F.C.: Student Assistants; Audio-Visual Club The Youth For Christ offered a spiritual atmosphere to the school day. Special innovations to the YFC Club were the bunsen burner and pie-throwing machine. Skits, musical groups, special speakers, films, and parties all had a place in the YFC Club. Many high school students attended these meetings. Student assistants helped in many ways. Besides delivering daily bulletins, students also collected records and lunch count. Still others served as assistants in the cafeteria. Numerous errands arose which were taken care of by these student as -sistants. The Audiovisual Club proved its worth by assisting the teachers in showing films. Mr. Welling taught this group of boys to operate the school's audio-visual materials.

Middies To Victory The combined efforts of the Pep Club and the cheerleaders inspired school spirit among the M.H.S. students. Blue and white shakers were a new innovation of the cheerblocks. White carnations with blue M's” were worn by Pep Club members at the tourneys. Their Midshipman mascot. Tommy Hellinga, was featured at the home games. A new attraction this year was a hoop, designed differently for each game, through which the players entered the gymnasium. The masculine voices of the Booster Club strengthened the Cheer Block. Together with the Pep Club, they cheered the Middies through many victories. 59 f. • v - •� • n t , • « i« Mi H II 'll i, , - Concert Choir, FIRST ROW: A. Kaufman, S. Balycat, ROW: D. Bowers, L.

Vocal Departments Aid Talented Voices The choir displayed its talent and ability to work by presenting a fall, Christmas, and spring concert, competing in vocal contest, and finally presenting My Fair Lady. The props, choreography, costumes, make-up, and accents called for special attention. The choir, under the direction of Mrs. Hostetler, finished a successful year by singing at Baccalaureate. A selected, mixed group known as the Dandee Diddletons, were kept busy with practices and performances throughout the year. Besides performing at various churches, the Diddletons gave concerts for several social groups and also gave a concert at Goshen High School. 60 Dandee Diddlctons SEATED: B. Bock; P. Kindy; J.

Practice and Hard Work: Key to Achievement BAND Middlebury High School welcomed hack an old friend in the Instrumental Department this year--Mr. Shafer. Last fall he immediately began working with the marching band so that only a couple weeks after school started they could participate in the activities of High School Day at Ball State University. The concert band met each day to develop its skills in instrumental music. The Pep Band, composed of volunteers from the Senior Band, provided peppy halftime music for the season’s basketball games. The Stage Band proved to be very enjoyable for its members this year. Their music included a lot of hit tunes. They were featured at the Fall and Spring concerts and at a few concerts of their own. The Senior Band and the Stage Band displayed their talent at band contest where individual talent was also displayed as members participated in solos or ensembles. Pom-Pom C-irls.

To help students recognize and develope their musical talents, we provide a Junior High band program here at M.H.S. Under the direction of Larry Shafer, the band practiced daily. Private lessons were required to aid in full comprehension of the various rhythms and note fingerings which sometimes created problems. Throughout the year the Junior High band performed in the Spring and Fall concerts with High School band. They also spent much time preparing several numbers for contest. The year ended successfully, and was enjoyed by all who participated. Jr. High Band--FIRST ROW: A. Miller, J. Myers, D. Brandenberger, C. Hershberger, L. Weldy, C. Craber, P. Kauffman, V. Mockler.

Frosh Sophomores Learn Basic Voice Skills Under the direction of Mrs. Hochstet-ler, sixty some freshmen and sophomores learned to train their voices for future years in the Junior and Senior choir. This was done through their choir periods as well as practice on each individual's own time. The choir participated in several concerts during the year, some of which were the Spring and Fall concerts. All were thoroughly enjoyed by those who attended. Starting in February, most of the students aided in the preparation and performance of My Fair Lady, which was presented by the music department. Some helped on various committees, while others were in dancing or singing groups. With their help and co-operation the musical was a success. The experience and information gained throughout this year will prove valuable to each student in future years. 65 Students learn the basic skills of voice training during their choir periods.

Class -room discussions and special projects add to the topical exercises . The faculty also participated in various extracurricular activities. They sponsored school parties, clubs, coat check, the selling of concessions, and other activities . The faculty is eager to help students who need counseling. Students learn to accept responsibility, build their character, and cooperate by following examples set by the teachers. Encouragement as well as criticism, offered by the faculty, help students learn. Happiness is . . . being a teacher and leading an exciting life!

There is a lot of work to be done both inside and outside to keep MHS looking neat and clean. The cooks are kept busy planning and preparing nutritous meals for the student body and the faculty. The bus drivers have a very important task as they provide transportation for rural students to and from school. The bus drivers have a great deal of responsibility. They assist in transportation for field trips also. In order to establish a method of handling the lunch line quickly and efficiently, a cashier was needed.

Senior In our senior year, we as a class, have noticed the absence of one of our steadfast members. Dennis Rhein -heimer has been spending the year as an exchange student to Sweden. In this strange and new country, Dennis is experiencing many of the joys and frustrations that are a part of growing up and taking on responsibility. It seems that in this country as an exchange student, Dennis finds that parties and school, sports and girls, mothers and fathers are just as vital and real as at home. It was really quite a change for me, coming from Dusseldorf which is considered as one of the largest cities in Germany, to a small town like Middle -bury. Although there are many things alike between the European countries and the U.S., the schools are surprisingly different. Last September, for the first time in my life, I had the privilege to choose my own subjects. Going to a different room for each subject, doing homework in study halls, having boys at school, and eating in the cafeteria--all that was new for me. And how much do Hike the long weekends! In Germany we have to go to school every Saturday. I was amazed by the fact that here in America the school is not only for studying, as it is in Germany, but that it also provides fun and recreation. The extra-curriculum activities are an excellent way to develop your talent in art, music, language, sports, or acting. At this point I certainly have to mention basketball. The words Hoosier Hysteria are the exact way to describe the students' enthusiasm for this sport. Never before had I seen a school that showed so much spirit and loyalty towards its team than M.H.S. did for the mighty Middies . So, coming to a conclusion I should say that in spite of, or better, because of, the many differences in the school, this year at M.H.S. has been a rich experience that I will remember.

Majestic moments, mixed emotions, anticipation, and arrogant pride were all captured in the hearts of Seniors. Smiling faces and high spirits were displayed by the Seniors as they realized that this was their last year together and the last year for M.S.H. Tests, term papers, book reports, labs, basketball games, and other activities were all things of the past. For many Seniors, time seemed to fly. Graduation came all too soon, and with it came tears of happiness and tears of sadness. The Class Play, the Prom, Senior keys, pictures, and finally graduation were all highlights of the Senior year, which will long be cherished by all! The Senior girls took the project of making a hoop for the players to run through at home games. Thomas Kyle Adkins--Choir 3.4; Baseball 1; Basketball 1-4; Glee Club 1; Musical 3.4.

They soon found out that there was still more work than play. They received many new privileges, but along with these came new responsi -bilities. The Junior's first big event was their magazine sales. They displayed great salesmanship ability in setting a new and undisputable record. In the first part of the year they received their class rings and also appointed a prom committee which made plans for this big event. The committee worked hard and progressed steadily for the big day. The prom turned out to be a splendid and memorable occasion which was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone attending. The last fund-raising activity before the prom was the Junior Class Play. Long nights of hard practice made it very successful . The Juniors now have a great responsibility--that of making their Senior year and the first year at Northridge High School a most successful year. The Junior Class officers and also the members mainly in charge of the Junior-Senior Prom were: Reporter, Sandy Mast; Treasurer, Julie Frederick; Vice-President, Dan Shoup; President, Ken Miller, and Secretary, Sally Coil.

They were no longer the inexperienced Freshmen, blindly following the example of older students. They were the lower upperclassmen. During this, the students became involved in the activities of the high school. High school suddenly changed from a boring routine to an interesting source of exciting activities, such as roller skating parties, soc hops, and basketball games. The sophomore year was also one filled with anticipation of ordering class rings and becoming honored upperclassmen of Northridge High School. Although the activities have increased, the sophomores still worked hard at their studies. Geometry, English, biology, Spanish II took up most of their time. The Sophomore class officers arc as follows: Joe Bou-terse, reporter; Lois Yoder, secretary; Larry Miller, president; Doug Miller, vice-president; and Kathy Kauffman, treasurer. 87 Barbara Balyeat Brady Bardo Doug Berwick Nelson Beachy John Bender Jeffrey Blough Duane Bontragcr Jay Bontrager Jim Bontrager Steve Brandenberger Sue Butler Randy Christy Claire Corson Eric Cox Daniel Cross David Cross Marilyn Cross Robert Eymer Gerry Fisher Danny Frederick Dannette Frye David Carmen Larry Gingerich John Gross Kent Hankins Cathy Hawkins Jeff Heign Barbara Hershberger Thomas Ireland Peter Jarausch Miriam Jones Donald Kauffman Geneva Kauffman Karl Kaufman Phyllis Kauffman Rickie Kauffman Anita Mast Mike Mast David McKee Cindy Miller Dorie Miller Gerald Miller Irene Miller Linda Miller Lorcnc Miller Mark Miller Phyllis Miller Sharon Miller Denise Mockler Steve Mockler Karen Mullet Jim Newman Mary Jane Nusbaum Marcia Oesch Mary Puckett Martha Puckett Sondra Puckett Ricky Ramey Cindy Rassi Debra Reploglc Lyncttc Rheinheimcr Shirley Rheinhcimer Becky Riegsecker Larry Schrock Richard Sevrey Deanna Sexton Barb Sherck Wayne Slabaugh Ken Smith Bill Stopper 88 Frosh Take Part in High School Activities Numerous challenges and responsibilities faced the freshman class as they entered their first year of high school. Their first new responsibility was to choose their own course for the year and to successfully complete that course. They had many elective courses to choose from after choosing their general course. Some of their more pleasurable experiences were dances, supporting the freshman team and joining high school organi- M.H.S. pep sessions gave the freshmen opportunity to exhibit their talent. zations, such as band, choir, and numerous clubs. The freshmen started to settle down for their four years of high school. They studied hard in their required subjects which included General Science, English, and a math class. The freshmen year did not consist of only hard work and study. They were given an opportunity to raise money sponsoring a soc hop and a skating party. The Freshman class officers are as follows: Dorie Miller, President; Dannette Frye, Secretary; Dave Carmen, Vice-President; Gerald Miller, Reporter.

They were no longer the youngest students finding their ways from class to class. They could feel superior to the seventh graders. The eighth grade class, like the other classes, had the opportunity of enjoying roller skating parties, ball games, and other activities at M.H.S. They had a team, entirely their own, to support this year. Though it has been an exciting and busy year for the eighth graders they anxiously look forward to the added activities and fun of their high school career at North-ridge. The eighth grade class officers arc as follows: President--LaVon Troyer, Vice President--Randy Heign Secretary --Jane Myers, Treasurer--Jacqueline Brandeberry. ’ 1 John Artley John Baker Mike Barnes David Beachy Richard Berkey Edna Bontrager JoAnn Bontrager Kent Bontrager Jacqueline Brandeberry Steve Breniser Karen Brown Lillian Bryant Shirley Cates Vicki Christy Brenda Clark Creg Corson Alice Cripe Don Cross Jay Cross Ron Cross Tim Dipert Leanna Dolph Creg Fisher Mark Frederick Carol Hawkins Randy Heign Kevin Hershberger Terry Hershberger 90 Wayne Hostetler Beth Johnson Denise Johnson Paul Kauffman Loretta Lambright James Lindlcy Kirby Manges Carl Martin Donna Martsolf Robert Mauck Joan Mast Mary Mast Sharon Mast Sue Mast Brent Miller Danny Miller Duane Miller Doug Miller Fern Miller Cerald Miller Gordon Miller Kathy Miller Kevin Miller Marion Miller Roger Miller Sheree Miller Dennis Mockler Luke Mumaw Jane Myers Sandra Odom Mike Oeash Debra Ramey Richard Rogers Clifford Schmidt Carolyn Schrock Jim Schwietert Ron Sherrill Delores Showalter Linda Simmons Danny Slabach John Smith Dana Smeltzer Dennis Staltcr Sherrie Stutz Terry Tahara Larry Thomas Lavon Troyer Lavonda Troyer Morris Troyer Rosalie Troyer James VanBuskirk David Vogelzang Carla Weaver Tom Weaver Linda Weldy Faron Wicky Robert Woods Anna Marie Yoder Becky Yoder Joellen Yoder Junior Yoder Larry Yoder Myron Yoder Sara Mae Yoder Terry Yoder Teresa Young 91 Christine Allred Bruce Bardo Gerald Bailey Jeff Barnes Willard Beachy Lydia Bontrager Steve Bontrager Debra Brandenberger Vickie Clark Kevin Cripc Tina Fireline Roxann Foreman Philip Frye Tom Geahlcn Carol Graber Billy Green Richard Grccnside Carla Hawkins Cheryl Hershberger Ruth Hershberger Karen Hooley Junior Hostetler Randy Hostetler Ron Hurly Nancy Irelan Albert Jacquez Wolfgang Jarausch Sidney Jones Mike Kauffman Sonia Kauffman Greg Krider David Leach John McKee Margaret McLaughlin Annette Miller David Miller Dean Miller Jerolyn Miller Judy Miller Kent Miller Marvin Miller Rosetta Miller Terry Miller Vera Miller Neil Mock Vicki Mocklcr Patricia Morrell Sandra Nemeth Carolyn Newman Lloyd Nusbaum Shirley Odom Nancy Oesch Darrell Otto Diana Pittcnger Steve Ragsdale Wanda Reimer Caron Rhodes Jerry Ricgsecker Joe Riegsecker JoAnn Riegsecker John Rogers Betty Sanford Alberta Schrock Becky Shoup Bruce Shoup Ted Smucker Terrie Stutz Robin Tahara Shirley Thomas Kevin Trowbridge 92 Anthony Troycr Kemey Troycr Melody Troyer Kevin Buskirk Robert Wade Dick Westfall Edna Yoder Kent Yoder Mike Yoder Monica Yoder Ron Yoder Marla Young Seventh Graders Join in Activities of M.H.S. The seventh graders entered Jr. High with uncertainty and doubts. They had to become accustomed to their new classrooms and teachers. They quickly adapted to Jr. High life and found it to be exciting. The seventh grade basketball team was hard working and eager to earn a name for itself. As a result, they were victorious in most of their games. The seventh graders enjoyed participating in some of the High School activi- ties, too. Skating parties were a new experience. Many challenges confronted the seventh graders. There were tests, book reports, and numerous studies. Experience is the best teacher, and as they are getting plenty of it, next year they will be ready to accept more responsibility, attend more ac -tivities, and apply themselves more thoroughly. The seventh grade class officers are as follows: President--Wanda Reimer, Vice President--Greg Krider, Secretary Treasurer--Terrie Stutz, Reporter--Randy Hostetler. 93 ♦Olive Bontrager Sixth Grade Viola Christner First Grade Geraldine Copp Fourth Grade Donnabelle Hershberger Second Grade ♦Tony Hurst Fifth Grade Sylvia Krcider Third Grade Opal Lantz Third Grade David McGarvey Special Education 3 0 4 Teachers Mold Future of Elementary Students w A familiar face to all the elementary students was Mrs. Kurtz, who was enjoyed by many for her talent as a music teacher.

IV, 46 In the past decade plus, we have faced many obstacles. Some were conquered; others remain to be overcome. Through the experiences in which we have participated, we have gained insights and character traits which will be of great value to us in the future. We have gained knowledge of importance of leadership, scholarship, sportsmanship, friendship, and loyalty. These have been gained and continue to develop. These we will use in the next step of our lives. Although this world is handed to us in a condition which is rather unappealing, this same condition should stimulate a desire to improve it. Along with the education we have obtained, this desire will create the motivation to meet the challenges of world building. We as editors of this final MIDDIETTE, would like to take this opportunity to thank all who have done so much to help us meet our deadlines and provide us with materials, etc. Through this experience we have learned much about responsibility. A special thanks goes to copy editors, Don Miller and Larry Yoder; business managers, Patti Kindy and Ruth Troyer; and to our photographer, Brice Bock. All have spent long hours during and outside of school to help provide you with a yearbook filled with memories. We want to thank our adviser, Mary Hoover, for her co-operation and fine direction. We'd also like to thank the ad- ministration, faculty, and students who responded to our pleas for help. We hope that this yearbook will bring pleasure to all who look at it in the years to come. The Editors, zAj uiJy Sue Balyeat Sally Yoder 144
