SENIOR HIQWRH In September, l9h5, five girls and four boys began their freshman year at Neptune High School. We entered with the attitude that we had just begun and were going on. During our freshman year one mem- ber, Ruth Goodwin, dropped out because of a change of residence. Herbert Harner also left us during the summer, leaving only seven of us to continue on, To direct our activities for the year, we chose Lois Baer to be our president, with Mrs. Stratton as our class adviser. The next fall our class began another year as sophomores: we numbered seven this year. This year we had a change of supervisors: Mr. Grice was ready and willing to help us solve any problems that would hinder us from going on. Elden Houts was chosen to tuide us during the year. Beginning the junior year, our number was in- creased to eight by Jack Sweigart who decided to re- turn to school after dropping out the year before. This balanced our class with four boys and four girls. This year was the beginning of larger activ- ities. We gave our class play entitled nHere Comes the Princev with Miss Yewey as director and adviser of our class. On May 17 we held a reception for our upper classmen, the Seniors, in Fort Wayne at the Hotel Indiana. Lois Baer was our president to lead us through the junior year. We all went on to the last year of high school. Our fourth year saw a small senior class take over at Neptune High. We are all still working faithfully for our goal. Many events occurred this year. We had our pictures taken at Van Wert, Ohio. We chose our Commencement speaker and decided on other smaller items that go along with the closing of our high school days. On March 25 we cave our class play entitled HHere Comes Charlien with Miss Yewey as director. We were very pleased to have Miss Yewey as our sponsor again after a successful year when we were juniors. Lois Baer was chosen to lead us through our senior year. Our greatest high- light of the year is our plan for a class trip to Niagara by boat when school is out. At the close of the year we look back realizing that we have just begun and are going on for we will be on our own from now on. -1-1-,-.,w.-.., ,.,. -, ,lx .-..... ,..v ..,..-f,.,,-Y V,-.-.-.,.....,- -.,.,.w--fff..e---f-..-1-.....,..-,-T..-.ff --J N-v-,ef--.-..,., --.-1 l I li, H E5 f. it G T l If, ga, L.

All of our experiences through high school have been worth while. We can look for- ward to an even footing when we go on out into the world with the high school education and experiences that we acquired. USES MUPHECEI When I got out of high school, I went to col- lege to become a teacher. After I got my training and taught for several years, then and only then could I afford to subscribe to the Standard. It had been several years since I had heard much from my old classmates. I was a little 'sur- prised when I received my first Daily Standard, for the new editor was 'Elden Houts. I really shouldn't have been surprised, because I had heard'he went to Capitol University to take up journalism. The following editions were just as interesting because I read of many of my classmates and teach- ers. In the want ads one time I saw: nwanted--Dish washer. Apply at Lois Baer's Service Station, form- erly Carl Wright's Service Station. Picking up the paper one day, I was surprised and alarmed to see that they were building a new school building in Nep. It seems that there was an explosion during physics class that was rather hard on the old building. What really slayed me was that Dean Lewis, who had gone to college to take up en- gineering, was now heading the company that was building the new school. In that same issue I road of the Michael's sta- bles. I read further, and sure enough Waneta Mich- aels, another classmate, was running a riding club. I must get back to Nep and take a ride, Quite some time later I read of the opening of a Junior Carnegie Hall right in the middle of good old Nep. I was greatly pleased when I saw that the opening night featured Mqdame Dorthea Wurstaro--of course that had to be Dorthy Wurster, another class- mate.' She had really made good use of her fine voice. . ,l
