C. Dear Mr. President: The Class of '44 recently held its first reunion: remember that was the year you were in doubt of being reelected. I know you like to meet people of intelligence, and we are the class that has just thai. Take 'Darrell Piersol for instance, he is president of nGet You a Date Club.n Perhaps this doesn't sound important, but you don't know hOW'g19Qt a problem this is since World War II. His most freqae L client is Janfnnc Sivill. If you could see her, you would realize the great job confronting him, as she didn't have trouble before the war, Then there was a girl that came from Stockland. Her name is Wouneta Oak. She is an instructor at the University of Illinois, teaching the boys to walk like men when they grow'up--interesting work, don't you imagine? No doubt you have hoard of Jim Garner beforeg he is the one that invented invisible school books. Hildegard Benner had the life-long ambition to be a nurse. Ambition usually brings success as she is the head nurse at the Iroquois Hospital. She almost failed the course, however, when Professor Wbsle holder asked the question what was the greatest operation in the United States. She couldn't answer--the answer was Lansing, Michigan. Bob Carter, the glamour boy of the class, has a bus route between Nhlford and Hoopeston. Two of his steady customers are Boland Henke and brris Adams. I don't know the attraction, but it seems very magnetic. As usual, some people always get married. Arvella Windhorn married some Wolf, that is the last name of course. Catherine Shoufler had her future planned before graduation, but we rust have farmers and her husband, Henry Hartman is a very good one. I can't quite figure this out, but Don Ervin is a minister and his friend Don Evans is his assistant, but time brings changes.

y Q 3- For our officers this year we chose: President ....... . Donald Breeding Vice-President ...... Darrell Piersol Secretary-Treasurer . . . Waneta Callahan Reporters ........ Geraldine Henry . . . . . . . Catherine Shoufler Student Council . . . . Robert Carter . .... Mary Anderson Miss Firchau, Miss Butscher, and Miss Schneider were our capable and efficient advisers. We entered the Junior Frolic with a clever stunt entitled Boogie or Bach. This year our efforts were justified and we received first. After the Junior Frolic came our play And Came the Spring. We had a fine cast of characters and a good director so therefore our play was enjoyed by the members of our community. Giving a play is fun, training, and work combined, so we felt as if we had learned and accomplished a great deal. For our motto to guide us we decided upon nHitch Your Wagon to,a Star.u Our flowers are violets and lilies of the valley and our colors are pastel green and white. Our senior year was the most exciting year of all. Almost every day something reminded us of Commencement. we received our pictures, name cards, and we had our Senior Play. After the Junior and Senior Prom oame,tQaxmost important week of all--Graduation Week. New we bid farewell to the juniorsf sophomores, freshmen, the teachers, and to dear old Milford High. :'5'fTlS' CS Z OLDEST Don Breeding Lulubelle Goudy YOUNGEST Marvin Natschke Annabelle Schroeder AVERAGE AGE: 18 years TALLEST Bob Carter Mary Anders on' SHORTEST Don Ervin Vivian Johnston AVERAGE GRADE: 84.9173 MEDIAN.GRADE: 84.9375 HIGHEST GRADE: 94.065 .L 'i LOWEST GRADE: 75.0625 ,a

Joan Akerly is the name and is in charge of en old meid's home. She seems ves5riessy'ras she has no man to tell her what to do. The Strong Company that is so large and well known is under the manage- ment of Harry Wcekloy. Kathleen Gooding is his secretary. Gerry Eenry is a florist at Marshall Fields in Chicago. Her old friend Dale Plummer naszzlerge account with her, for his hobby is to send flowers to the bealftifnl women, however, he makes plenty money in raising Air Dales. Writing always appealed to lulubellelgpudy and she has just completed her second novel titled, SOME GIRKS ARE JUST NATURALLY CATTY. Don Breeding has a farm in back of his home here in the village of Milford and' recently won grand champion on his prize cet. Another home town success is Ruth Newtsgn. She is commercial teacher at MTHS and has students that are typing faster than when she was in high school. Her best student is Lucille lMohlerj Stidham's daughter. Inheritance, evi- dentlyo There were several students who came from Woodland, a suburb of Milford, to enter our class when we were Juniors. Theresa Martin, Buethene Nhller, and Joanne ,Johnson have taken onthe difficult t7fs'k B'f EK':!1l!TJ.-Q 'E5 m'Z'E5 Weodlfnd as lively as Nilford. Frankly, I don't see how there could be unch differencaf Lorraine, Arleen, and Roma Hartman have formed a trio and travel all over the world singing. The biggest hit of the year is nThe Threq Little Bears. The pianist is Mary Andersen.- Eenneth Weber, the first to leave our class to enter the armed services, is now Afrflral in the Navy. He entered as Ensign because he just couldn't see the use of being an Apprentice. There is only one of the girls in the beauty operating business. She is Annabelle Schroeder and has a shop in Williamsville, Indians: it seems the name W:LlTiYixTE 5.Tways did appeal to her.
