The question Wwhyn dashed in all our minds, until we heard the rumor that we were going to practice our graduation march J After practice and after the confusion was over each girl and each boy headed his own way--just waiting for fall to come when they would become high school students. Now, -fall is here and we thirty-three bashful Freshmen began our first year at M. T. H. S. As the first weeks were set aside for organizing, we waited until later to elect class officers. With the help of our sponsors, Miss Alderson and Mr. Turnbaugh, we elected Gene Callahan, President, Ivan Cox, Vice President, and Phyllis Beatty, Secretary. Our student council members were Bob Hix and Carolyn Brewer. In October we also chose Queen candidates and King candidates for the Homecoming Dance. The Queen candidates were Phyllis Beatty and Rosanna Hawthorne. Bob Hix and Don Hodge were King candidates. d lM G1 we Ivan Cox Gloria Evans Rosalie Hartman Rosanna Hawthorne Robert Hix Kay Hixson We had had elections before in grade school, but no such formal meeting as this. We thought we were orderly from grade school days but all of us could see room for improvement. I regret to say that little headway was made as far as gathering together much money. Of course, you can't expect much from Freshmen, but you could rightfully expect more than we had. As the year drew to a close we looked forward to summer free from study. Oh, here's an announcement. Class meetings today fifth hour. Undoubtedly, this is for electing class officers, but who would be good as president and the other offices? It seemed to occur to every- one that Rosanna Hawthorngwould fit perfect and so she was elected by a unanimous majority, President. Then came the other offices. We chose Bob Hix, Vice President, Louise Zinn, Secretary-Treasurer . Phyllis Beatty and David Van Hoveln were Student Council members. Mr. Hitchens and Miss Brunskill served as our new class sponsors. During the year Gloria Evans and Carolyn Brewer served as assis- mnt cheerleaders. -x Don Hodge Wg , fx 5 Frieda Luening 1 . 5 N , wa, Jerry Jones Maralyn Lauterbach Sandra Lowe Robert McCoy October now and we must have two candidates to ride in our con- vertible through town. We chose Phyllis Collins and Lois Van Hoveln. To prepare for this lavish occasionue began decorating our float. The theme was 'Cooking Catlins Goose' and, of course, with a little pre- judice we bragged to opposing classes that our float would be the best there. And it must have been because we won first prize. Not only was that a great honor but we also won a five dollar bill. To increase the cash in our treasury we decided to put on a dance early in spring and the dance was very because here it is next year we should Back in school call it the Spring Hop. We did make money because successful. That money won't be ours long though the middle of May and when we come back to school be planning on spending money for Promcbcorations. again new, we hear whisper's about the Homecoming Dance. We sent an announcement through school telling the classes to elect their queen candidates and to fix a num float for the parade not forgetting to mention that the first prize would be 85. The dance the following night of the parade was sure to be fun because we were offering door prizes, corsages, and a wonderfd.orches- trac 'B r as Roy Miller Donald Natschke K6HH9th Hollins c BP 3' Gilbert Schleef Lois Thomsen Carl Smith Our treasury was beginning to increase again now with1 e proceeds of the Homecoming Dance. Put again we looked forward to spending some of that money on Prom decorations. Our class voted not to have a banquet. The theme was April in Paris and we had Chuck Granger and his Orchestra provide music. Both our Homecoming Dance and the Prom were successful and much credit must be givento our able sponsors Miss Dittlinger, Miss Brunskill, and Mr. Kunz. Officers this year were Bob Hix, Presidentg Don Buhrmester, Vice- Presidentg Carolyn Brewer, Secretaryg and Dolores Brutlag, Treasurer. Student Council members were Phyllis Collins and Kenneth Rollins. By this time we were looking forward to school letting out and especially to heing Seniors--the leaders of the school. Oh, yes and during this hard working year Louise Zinn, from our class, was elected as one of the cheerleaders, and Gloria Evans was substitute. - As the year came to a close I heard rumors abouttwo other Seniors to be that were planning on going out for Cheerleading. We all wished our fellow classmates luck and as you know Carolyn Brewer and Gloria Evans did get it. K Wh ana 'road Louise Zinn Alvin Buss David Van Hoveln Lois Van Hoveln ?' L M nj 1 Z iq! We n We K Ralph Mann Norman Luecke Senior year was filled with numerous decisions that had to be made ooncerning commencement invitations, class motto, color, and flower, and the type of programs to be passed out to our friends at graduation services. Perhaps the most im- portant decision of all was where to go on our class trip. 'We decided on New Orleans and are already talking of clothes to take. Our sponsors this year were Miss Schultheis, Mr. Carpen- ter, and Mr. Turnbaugh. Don Hodge was President, Gilbert Sohleef, Vice President, and Sandra Lowe, Secretary-'R-easuren Our Student Council members were Rosanna Hawthorne and Don Buhrmester. In October we chose Phyllis Collins, Lois Thomsen, and Lois Van Hoveln as our Homecoming Queen Candidates. During the year we staged a play entitled 'Skidding' under the di- rection of our able Speech teacher, Mr. Hike. So went the class of '5l's activities. We've had four wonderful years here, but now we must look forward to e new life keeping in mind our class motto: With the Ropes of the Past We Will Ring the Bells of the Future. its y Y . , , P 4 W T ' T bf' ,IICJII ,JU ,J Yerr Book Staff Class Play Staff Bruketball Football CAEOLYH Elin?

Just ten years since I graduated from M. T. H. S. Thinking back over the best years of mv life I decided to take a trip and find out what my former classmates were doing. I didn't know just where to start so I got on an airliner and flew to Washington D. G. I arrived there early and who should meet me, but Gene Callahan, Cadillac and all. In the recent November election, he was elected President of the United States, Democrat, of course. Met the first lady, too. You guessed it, she was Gene's high school sweetheart, Maralyn Lauterbach. Leaving there after a very enjoyable time, I traveled to Hollywood to see how Bob Hix and Alvin Buss were doing. They've been in the recent mus- ical which just came back, HSouth Pacificn. Bob sings while Alvin dances. Smash hit, too. I wasn't a bit surprised when I got into Great Lakes to see Phyllis Williams, the former Phyllis Collins and her husband, Admiral Williams liv- ing in the officers quaters. Phyllis and I talked over old-times and to my surprise she told me Louise Ferdinand, nee Louise Zinn, visited her a week ago while her husband was there on special orders. Oh! Yes! Louise also had along her four boys, Phyllis put me on one of her husband's best ocean liners and I ended up in France. It has always been my ambition to attend an opera so while I was in Paris I went. And who do you think wrs the star of that opera? Mhdam Rita Todd. Seems Rita fulfilled her life-long ambition, went to music school, and is now one of the great stars in the entertainment world. From Paris I flew by airliner hack to the United States. While riding in the plane it was my privilege to visit the cockpit. There in the pilot's seat was none other than Carl nDutchN Smith. He told me he had been flying for United Airlines for five years now. He also has a small cottage in San Francisco, California where he and his little blond-headed wife live. Upon my arrival there I spent a few days and then journeyed on my way to Texas. As I arrived in Houston I was greeted by Lois Van Hoveln, now Lois Decker, and she took me out to her ranch which covers several thousand acres, She took me all over it in her new station wagon and showed me their huge herds of cattle. Oh! Yes! There were also two little cowboys running around. From Houston, I traveled to the Yankee Stadium to see my old classmate Roy Miller. Roy always did like football so after he left Milford he de- cided to go on to college. He did and is now coach of the famous Army Cadets. They haven't lost a game for the past decade. While attending this game I ran into Don Natschke who is now playing professional baseball with the Chicago white Soxs. We had a long talk and he told me he saw Carolyn Brewer not mnlong ago and she has become the wife of the fanous President of the Purdue Universitv. It seems there was a slight bit of rivalry betueen the University of Illinois and Purdue so her husband put his Toot dovn and Carolyn married him. It all ceased. is I vas already in New York I decided to spend e night at the fabulous Stork Club. I hrd 2 little trouble getting in at first but then I told them I knew the manager they let me in right away, He is the former URomeon of our class, Kenny Rollins. Ken told me Lois Thomsen had recently been to his tl ce and she is now going to Hollywood for a screen test. She is one of the lovely Povers Models. CThnt always ues her ambition.D I ran across Gloria Evans in New York, too, She was there at an Olds- gobile Convention with her husband. She told me there has been quite a bit of excitement in Milford since I left. Gilbert Schleef decided to set up His barber shon right across the street from Kay Hixson's place and the fire started flying. So Gilbert moved his place back to Woodworth. Now all is peaceful again. From New York I ranaged to yet a free ride to Chicago with Sandra lows in her new transport truck. Seems her husband Jim is kept busy with the bookkeeping at home and Sandy does most of the driving, In Chicago I ran across Don Buhrmester who has become President of the Illinois Institute of Technology. He told me he ras very fortunate in hav- ing two of the best secreteries in the country, Dolores Drutlag and Frieda Tnening. Recently they both tied in a nation-wide contest as the fastest typists in history, He also told me Dave Van Hoveln, who used to sit across from me in Meth class, is now Farm Advisor for the whole state of Illinois. While in Chicago, I ran across Jerry Jones who has a big Bordens Dairy there. Dick Allen manages the delivery trucks for him when he isn't play- ing basketball for Ivan CoX's Globe-Trotters. Seems they are doing quite well lately. Hnven't lost n game yet. From Chicago I decided to fly to Florida for a two weeks vacation, there. Nothing to do but lie in the sun. I saw Rosalie Hartman at St. Petersburg University. She has become one of its lending professors in Commerce. From there I vent to Miami Beech to the famous Hodge-McCoy Sump mer Resort- There I spent the remainder of my vacation and talked over old times with Bob and Don. They are both simple and from what I hear two of the most eligible bachelors in the country, What an I doing? I decided to take my old job back as usherette in the Milford Theatre and I'm still looking. Looking for what? A husband, natur- ally. F. SENIOR PLAY llll Lois Van Hoveln, Phyllis Collins, Ivan Cox, Carolyn Brewer, Bob McCoy, Louise Zinn, Gilbert Schleef, Gloria Evans, Don Hodge, Gene Callahan. SKIDDING The Senior Class Play was presented November 17, Friday evening with more than 330 patrons enjoying the hilarious comedy story of a typical American family. The play 'Skidding' was presented in three acts from the original play on which the 'Andy Hardy' series of motion pictures is based. It was ably cast and staged under the direction of Donald Hike, speech instructor, with Gene Callahan portraying the role of 'Andy', an exuberant teenager, and Carolyn Brewer the part of Marion, an elder sister recently graduated from college and in love with Wayne Trenton III, a suave young man from an aristocratic Eastern family played by Bob McCoy. Supporting members of the cast included Phyllis Collins as Aunt Milly, Lois Van Hoveln as Mother Hardy, Ivan Cox as Judge Hardy, Gloria Evans and Louise Zinn as the married sis- ters, Gilbert Schleef as grandpa, and Don Hodge as a breezy politician Supporting the re-nomination of Judge Hardy. Family problems arise when the two ekhst daughters come home to mother with imagined marital difficulties. Shocked at their failure, Mother Hardy goes home to her mother. The scene of the play is enlivened by the adolescent antics of 'Andy' and hysterical scenes of the married daughters when they come home to live. The members of the cast expressed their appreciation to Mr. Hike for his direction by presenting him a gift between scenes. CLASS FCEM Richard Allen--Dick to the students here, Who is a senior this year. To classes he way be late, But in football he does rate. When Carolyn Brewer, a business course takes, The 90's and lOO'rds in constantly she rakes. Dolores Brutlag, who we know very well, Is a senior and not quite so shy. Her lessons she has everday, For in the end she says it will pay. Don Buhrmester, he has such twinkling eyes, They must be the cause of many sighs.

Rosalie Hartman--who is quite stout, One whom we know little about. Is a senior and quite shy, But still she seems to get by. There's Rosanna Hawthorne, who never asks why, But goes right ahead and always tries, All the things the teacher's thinks, she knows, If she ever studies, it never shows. Hix goes by the name of Bob, Freund the girls he is a heart-throb. He blows a big blast on his old clarinet, And such sounds issue forth, as you've never heard yet! She dreams and dreams the time away, nut her lessons she has everyday. I wish there were something we could do, To wake Kay up for a while, don't you? Don Hodge to Florida has been, A nice warm tan from the sun did win. Among us we have a knight of old, No other than Jerry, so we are told. Who sits on the davenport night after night, That is--until Dad aopears in sight. Maralyn is as quiet as a mouse, Fnd never noisy about the school hcuse. She's always there when it comes to work, And in her lessons she does not shirk. She goes out with Jim all year, Her name wdll be Brummett very near.

Junior Class History In the fall of 'L8, we Freshmen entered the halls of R. T. H. S. confused and frightened. We finally became accustomed to our class- mates and teachers. We elected as our President, Bonnie Parish, Vice- President, Suzanne Callahang Secretary-Treasurer, Bob Crawford, and Student Council members, Joan Purden and Jimmy Stebbins. Our sponsors were Miss Alderson and Mr. Turnbaugh. Homecoming was our first big activity. Our queen candidates were Suzanne Callahan and Joyce Walken The following fall saw us back to school with higher hopes and success for the new year. To have a good start we elected the follow- ing class officers: President, Charles Hasselbringg Vice-President, Andy Hasseng Secretary-Treasurer,Suzanne Callahan, and Student Council members were Nadine Newtson and Robert Crawford. Our class sponsors were Misa Maxine Bloom and Mr. Eldon Hitchens. with determination to win this year, we chose Ruth Buss and Rose Ann Smith as our Homecoming queen candidates. We were delighted when Ruth succeeded in being crowned queen. On March 17, we had the pleasure of sponsoring the St. Pat's Dance. We had John Piersol's orchestra supply the music. The following September we began the thrill of becoming Juniors. We chose Andy Hessen as President, David Larson, Vice-President, Rose Ann Smith, Secretary, and Joyellen Glover, Treasurer. Student Council members were Marilyn Pfingsten and Delbert Frerichs. Class sponsors were Miss Dittlinger, Mr. Bicket, and Miss Brunskill.

Suzanne Callahan was crowned Queen at the dance that evening by Mr. Turnbaugh. Our class was awarded first place on our Homecoming float. Our theme was Trimming Gilman.

SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY In the fall of l9L9, forty-one anxious WFreshies' entered M. T. H. S. to begin four years of hard learning. We elected, David Crawford as President, Carrell Marshall as Vice-Presidentg Bernadine Paris as Secretary, Marian Lauterbach as Treasurer. Beverly Davis and Kenneth Ecker were Student Council members. Miss Englund,Miss English and Mr. Piersol served as our sponsors. We elected Beverly Davis and Beverly Doud as queen candidates. We enjoyed two parties during the year. When we returned our Sophomore year we found that we had lost several members of our class and had gained one. Mr. Hike and Mr. Hitchens served as our sponsors during the year. When we elected class officers, we chose Beverly Davis, President, Glen Longley, V1ce-Presi- dentg and Bernadine Paris, Secretary-Treasurer. Karen Reeder and Fred Focken represented us on the Student Council. Soon Homecoming came up and we had to elect queen candidates. We chose Beverly Doud, Marge Doud, and Margaret Probasco. We are looking forward to two more years of learning.

HISTGRY On Sertember l, 1950, forty-nine Freshmen entered the doors of M. T. H. S. Our first important business was to elect class officers. Sith the help of our sponsors, Miss English, Mrs. Klueh, and Mr. Piersol we elected Wayne Hothgeb, President, Sylvia Allen, Vice- Prfsidentg Hoy Gossett, Secretary, and Elaine Lehman, Treasurer. Our student council members are Gloria walker and Bob Beatty. Being new in school we found ourselves being initiated into many unfamiliar clubs and organizations. Je did not participate in many activities although we did take part in Homecoming. Our queen candidates were: Elaine Lehman, Gloria Walker, and Marlene Bury. .LX2-1-1.-Elk ' ' 3R33- af-af-JF' Football Team Top: Bill Edwarls, Coachg Jim Quakenbush, Nanaferg Roy Gossettg Dicx Alleng Norman Doudg Forrest Lewis, Walter Crcuttg Glenn Longleyg Bob Bcattyg John Shouflerg Middle: Ken Rollinsg Andy Hrsseng Bob Smith Don Buhrmestcrg Alfa McCanng Gerald Shouflerg Don Stebbins: Dave Craw- fordg Ralph Nanny Don Hodge: Ivan Cox: Bottom: Gilbert Schleefg Bob Num g Gene Callahang Ken Sorensong Kenny Eckorg Don Schumackerg Bill Haselettg Bob Zvansg Don Davis. The 1950 Football Season Milford---O Wstseka---33 Milford---O Catlin---41 Vilford---O Ridgefarm-Zl Milford---O Gilman---05 Milford---7 Roseville-gb Milford---O Onarga---45 Although this years football campaign wasn't as succesfful as many students anticipated it was a good year as far rs candidates for the team were concerned. One real encouraging point was the fact that 12 Freshman boys were out for the sport the entire season and some really showed good promise for the future. The returning lettermen who will be back next year, are Dave Crawford, Donnie Stebbins, uDuden Shoufler, Alfa McCann, Bob Smith, Andy Hassan, Kenny Ecker. with these returning lettermen and some big boys from grade school coming over things are looking brighter than it has in the past few years. Other lettermen this year who will be lost by graduation are Captain Don Buhrmester, Dick Allen, Ivan Cox, Don Hodge, Kenny Rollins, Gene Callahan, Norman Doud who is now in the U. S. Marines, and Ralph Mann who joined the Army. Another reason the boys should be in a winning attitude for the football season approaching is the fact that they will be all decked our with new uniforms when opening game comes around next year. Even though the team failed to win a game this year it was with- out doubt a season in which much was learned about the game as well as a lot learned about good sportsmanship which is very important in life today.

Results for this year show six wins and fourteen losses. Bob McCoy broke our free throw record with a .655 percentage. The record before was held by Paul Schaumburg.

Swine Project The Junior-Senior Agriculture class is just finishing up their swine project. The hogs were secured from Charles Smith and Max Craw- ford. The class and Mr. Bickett went up to the local bank and talked to Mr. Davis and then borrowed money for the project. All work is to be done by the ten boys and Mr. Bickett. The feeding program was carried out on a turn-about basis, where every boy did his share of the work. A small part of the lot north of the agriculture building was rented and repaired so that we could fatten hogs. The average daily gain for the 96 day period was 1.5 lbs. but during the last 30 days the average daily gain was 1.8 which is a very good gain. The hogs were fed shelled corn and 35 per cent hog supnlement for the whole period. They balanced their own ration out of a feeder. When the hogs were shipped Monday they averaged around 200 lbs. They were trucked to Chicago by Fred E. Buhrmester. The boys of the class and Mr. Bickett will follow the hogs up to Chicago on Wednesday and follow them through the yards and into Swift's Packing Plant. There they will see the carcasses of the ten hogs they raised. Coming Events The Milford F. F. A. is carrying on many events such as Garden Seed Sales which are being ordered and sold now. The boys have really gone to work on them and this activity will undoubtedly be a great success. About half of the hog troughs ordered have already been made and are selling for 31.25. l -L FUTURE HOMEMAKERS OF AMERICA 222 Row: Joanne Lauterbach, Phyllis Lewis, Waneta Schroeder, Marge DoudT-Ann Todd, Lois Thomsen, Rita Todd, Marylyn Scherf, Norma Reinerq Kathleen Yaden.

The Vocal Music Department has had a very busy and successful year. The early part of the year was spent in preparation for the Iroquois County Music Festival, for which we were the host school. Over 500 pupils were here forthe day and from them Charles Hasselbring was selected to sing the solo part. The program was under the direc- tion of Mark Biddle of Knox College. The Chorus did not present a Christmas concert but almost all the members took part in various church services--many as soloists. The spring was spent in preparation for contests. Charles Hassel- bring and the oy! Quartet were awarded first division in the District and went to State. The last item on the calendar is a spring concert to be given May 6. The theme is to be--A Day With Music. Three smaller groups who performed many times for community activ- ities were the Boy's Quartet, Girl's Sextet, and Girl's Trio. The Boys Quartet gained so much fame that it was invited to sing for the County Teachers Institute. The Gir1's Trio was one of the first place winners at the Junior Women's Club Talent Show. The Sextet was active as usual in various clubs and programs. TWIRLER8 Twirlers: Louise Zinn, Ruth Buss, Joyce Walker, and Marlene Bury.
