C. Lucas Instrumental Music Arthur Miller Choir Director Harold Rensburger, is presently in his 25th year as Janitor at Mill Creek High School. Unk as he is common- ly called, is more like a cornerstone at Mill Creek than a Janitor. In his 25 year span, he has seen countless stu- dents graduate. Students who frequently visit the school always stop to talk with the man who has seen the first Mill Creek School burned. Seeing the new school built and put into operation was another step in Unks life. We the m Ce staff, speaking for the entire school, would like to extend our congratulations on a happy 25th Anniversary at Mill Creek High School, To Harold Unk Rensburger. Williard Paige-Asst.

Over the loudspeaker a voice began counting, 5-l4-3“2-l-Blast off! With a mighty thrust the rocket leaped inot the air and so began the first flight to Mere. The seventeen trained scientists, each one a spec- ialist in a specific field, looked at each other with a faint murmer of re- cognition. After a period of several seconds, although it seemed like sev- eral hours, we were finally able to breath more easily. I then began to look around and the first person I noticed was the pilot. He looked very fam- iliar, why of course! It's JIM KAUTZ. I always knew he woul'd fly, one way or another. Right next to Jim was the co-pilot, who suddenly burst into song. It was the singing member of our class, RANDY JONES. He turned and looked at the navigator and I turned and looked too. Surprisingly It was BILL GODFREY. I found out later that he had started out to be a lawyer, but found that his Interest lay in trying to figure out where he was. He is still trying. My eyes then turned toward the stars and there I saw the official astronomer for the Journey, JIM WODAY. Jim always did have stars in his eyes. This Is X-195 calling earth, come in earth. These words were spoken by the man with the The Voice . Yes, It was BILL ZEITZ. I was sure that voice of his would get him somewhere. Seated next to him was LAUREEN PEERY, who had charge of the communications within the ship. Suddenly, a splotch of purple paint shot into the air. MELVIN GREENE had tripped with a can of paint. He was the official painter for the trip. He was to bring back his impression of Mars. Bang, Clank, Creek! Creek! It seemed as though the motor was going out. This was the Job for the chief mechanic, GENE SMITH. He rushed in followed by the technical advisor, ORESTE LANTERO. They quickly set to work correcting the trouble in the motor. It was then discovered that It was not the motor that was having trouble, but JO-ANN PULASKI, the cook. She had dropped some pans while fixing dinner for the crew. In came DIANA HENNING, the nurse for the Journey, who promptly set about bandaging Jo's injured finger, about which Jo was hollerine. It was then that the Radar Technician, BOB BOYER, found an unidentified object on the radar screen. We were all rather worried about it. However, we soon found out that it was only a flying meteor. Only a what? , scream- ed MARCELLA BRACKEN, who was a Hollywood movie actress on the trip for publicity only. Her official title was Morale Builder. Rushing to Marce's assistance was the stewardess, CHARLENE SCHWEN’K. While all this was going on, rushing to and fro with her pencil and paper, was the historian, CATHY HARTIG, getting in everyones way. She especially got In the way of the recreational director, PAUL PERRY, who was trying to prepare some sort of recreation for the group. All of a sudden the motor began coughing and wheezing, no one could fig- ure out v:hat was wrong. Oh, by the way, in case you are wondering Just who I am, my name is LINN IANTRIA, who was in charge of the fuel for this rocket. Yes, I forgot the gas or whatever you run this thing on. After the advice of the whole crew we decided to try and make it down. The rocket fell to the earth, but lucky for us, we landed in a lake known as Fish Lake. And there we were, back home in INDIANA.

There were no happier children than these forty-three Soon they entered Junior High and felt as smart as whips. They soon learned to behave and also make no slips But now the number fell down to a meager thirty-nine And soon the children realized that they were losing time. They knew that soon their high school years would come within their grasp, And wondered if each one of them would make it to the last First the Freshman year and the number went down five. Then the Sophomore year came and went and twenty survived. They were Juniors now and numbered still twenty, But with them came the loves and cares, the hopes and dreams of many. The year is I960 and they are Seniors few. Happy go lucky, fun loving, but serious too. The time is 8 p.m. and the date is May 16 And seventeen Seniors in caps and gowns are walking in a The song is Pomp and Circumstance and tears are in their eyes For even the hardest of them realize now how the time flies No more halls to walk through, nor more friends they knew. No more to see that carefree fun that echoed from those few. They wondered what life would give to them in days so far ahead. Would they be living, regally or living down Instead? Would they ever, ever see again this solemn seventeen? Or would the years bring them closer than they could ever dream? Now the diplomas were being handed out to trembling hands. And tear stained faces marched out to the music of the band The congratulations are given and all of them softly sigh. Then each one looks at the other and smiles and says Good-by. This, then is the story of these first forty-three. Their life at school is now just ancient history. They have gone through the years as a King or as a Queen, But I believe they truly were Mill Creek's Sweetest Seventeen. Young love W6 did it all ourselves We re working (?) Your hanging from a what?
