HISTURY MAYBE WE'HE LUCKY The Class of '48 has been lucky because all of us have had an opportunity to go to school as long as we liked, while in some countries students may go to school only until they are a certain age, often only fourteen. Our boys have been lucky because they weren't drafted for war before they could graduate. The girls have been lucky, too, because they could plan their marriages and homes without the fear that their loved ones would be called to war and taken far away from them and their families. It seems that we have been lucky throughout our four years in high school. In our Freshman year we enrolled with fifty-four students, most of whom have remained with us through these four years. We chose as our ofiicers Donald White, president, Dick Pence, vice-president, Virginia Baker, secretary-treas- urerg and Betty Jones and Neil Towns, advisers. During the year Thelma Betz and Dorwin Oswalt entered as new students, and Dwight Rogers withdrew. Our class party and a convocation were the highlights of the year. Mr. Craig and Miss Johnson were our sponsors. Just before the beginning of our Sophomore year, it seemed as if had luck had come to us in the loss of our principal, Mr. Wilson, to the U. S. 0. However, we were fortunate in having a very capable substitute, Miss Nelson. Also, we were lucky to obtain Mr. Dick as a teacher. We chose as our leaders for the year: Jeanne Burson, presidentg Betty Jones, vice-president, Keith DeBatty, secretary-treasurer, and Garnet Nuckols and Charles Pethtel, advisers. Our sponsors were Miss Morton and Mr. Brinkerhoff. Our first party was a Halloween backward party, held at the High School Building on October 15. We won tl1e War Bond Drive with the help of Neil Towns and his thousand-dollar bond. Our class convocation was given on April 26. Our biggest and best year yet was in '47. Mr. Wilson came back, and he and Miss Nelson helped us in every- thing we attempted. Under their direction and that of the class officers, we had a magazine subscription drive, ordered our class rings, held a class party, gave a convocation, and presented our class play, 'LDate Bait. Our class officers were: Janice Ford, presidentg Richard Love, vice-presidentg Elonda Rinker, secretary-treasurer, and Patty Reasoner and Dick Pence, advisers. During tl1e year Dessel Beavans and Gene Dawson entered as new students. We worked very hard on the Junior-Senior banquet. The Ball State orchestra played for the dance, held after a wonderful banquet. In our senior year we were lucky to have an opportunity to publish the Hlndianiani' because of the lateness of the '47 Annual. However, early in the year we sponsored the Spar Brothers Circus to raise money for the publication of our Annual. Early in the year we organized the Annual Staff and began work on our yearbook. On January 28 we pre- sented a skit introducing the Annual subscription drive. This was presented as a radio broadcast. It included a parody of My Merry Oldsmobile by the Shy Songbirdsg the Too Fat Polkan by the Trembling Troubadours and Little Fredrikag a skit, Don't Be Too Late , and a speech given by our class president. Our aim was to reach 350 subscriptions in two weeks. We had elected as class officers Jeanne Burson, presidentg Dick Pence, vice-presidentg Virginia Baker, secretary- treasurerg and Janice Crider and Dessel Beavans, advisers. Our sponsors were Mr. Morgan and Miss Albertson. Our convocation was presented on March 24. The Senior Class play, g'Coing Places, was very successful. We enjoyed very much the Junior-Senior banquet held on May 14. Baccalaureate was held on May 16 and Commencement on May 19. The speaker for baccalaureate was the Reverend V. O. Vernon. Mr. Lewis Cishler spoke at commencement. All in all, we feel we have had a lucky four years in high school. PATTY REASONER. Pagesixteen THE INDIANIAN
