NEW KNOXVILLE VILLAGE SCHOOL 1938 NEW KNOXVILLE VILLAGE SCHOOL 1950 The Class of 1950 has the honor of being the first class to complete its entire grade and high school education in our new school building. In the top picture we see the school as it appeared in the fall of 1938, when we entered it as first graders. The lower picture is the building as it appears today. The Class of 1950 feels deeply indebted to the members of this community who feel education is one of the important achievements of an individual and therefore have provided such excellent educational facilities for its youth.

Page Fifteen I CLASS HISTORY We, the Class of 1950, are proud to state that this is the first class to have completed twelve years of education in the building from which we are graduating. Excellent facilities have been provided by this community to give us a varied and complete education. We entered this school in the fall of 1938 as first graders and gradually wogbgd our way into high school. Our class consisted of twenty shy freshmen wherfwe began our high school education in September, 1946. During the year Betty Elshoff moved to St. Marys and attended school at Memorial High School. Raymond Sholler joined our class but found an interest elsewhere and left before the year was finished. We took an active part in the school activities. Eight members of our class belonged to the band. Three of our boys came out for basketball. The next fall, 1947, we began school with a total of twenty members. Carol Kuck moved in from Anna, where she had attended as a freshman. Our band membership dropped to seven that year but we had eleven members in the chorus. Two additional members of our class came out for basketball and the original four were still playing baseball. Two of our girls were elected cheerleaders. The same twenty members spent their junior year together. Our class rings, of which we are very proud, were purchased during the junior year. We presented our junior class play, Father Didn't Bother to a large and appreciative audience. The junior-Senior reception in honor of the seniors was successfully given by our class on May 6, 1949. Our two cheerleaders were reelected for another year and our boys were again active in the field of sports. The band and chorus were also well represented by members of our class. In September of 1949, the one time shy freshmen were elevated to the rank of dignified seniors. Gladys Rostorfer joined her family in Wapakoneta decreasing our membership to nineteen. On March 24, 1950 we presented our senior play. The junior-Senior reception was given in our honor on May 12th by the Class of 1951. The week of May14, 1950, will long be cherished in our memory as the beginning and end of our many graduation activities.

Club Treasurer 5, Halfway to Heaven 4 o CLASS PROPHECY Years have passed since that eventful graduation day, and as I sat in my lonely room reviewing these happy days, a longing to know what had been the fortune of my former classmates crept over me. The desire became so strong that I determined to consult a sorceress whom I knew to have unusual powers. As I rapped cautiously at the door, my heart pounded gladly for I felt certain my visit would be successful. The room to which I was guided was very dark. I wondered as I sat there how long the sorceress would keep me waiting, but-I was startled! What was that in the corner? Now it movedg ah yes, it was a woman. As she advanced toward me I noticed that she was very tall and powerfully built. There was a mystic charm about her that inspired in one a feeling of awe and fear. Your purpose? She said pointedly, in a deep contralto voice that roused me from my reflection. When I had stated my mission, she moved to a farther corner of the room and produced a large crystal and placed it on the table a little distance from me. Now, she said, if you will close your eyes and remain silent, I will read to you the crystal's revelations. It seemed hours before she began, and then her voice sounded hollow and far away. I see, she said, a group of bright energetic young people entering life's road. Some are going one directiong others in anotherg still others are hesitating while they watch with wonder the course of their fellows. Ah, the picture fades and the figures are no longer discernible. There was a few minutes silence, then her voice roamed on. Again the picture comes into view. There are a great many people moving about while adding machines are clicking busily. Across the door is printed in large black letters, MALCOLM KANTNER, Chief Accountant, Kruse Bolt and Nut Company. Malcolm's greatest ambition has come true. Across the hall the owner, LESTER KRUSE and a Constructionist, KENNETH ELSHOFF, are talking over a design for a new plant. Lester has built the company from a small plant in one building to a plant that covers three blocks. Kenneth is the manager of the largest construction companies in the United States. His firm built the Etnperess building, consisting of 210 floors, in New York City. Lester's private secretary, KATHRYN COOK, waits patiently for directions. Kathryn is chief secretary over fifty other girls. She handles all of Lester's private business. Suddenly the door is thrown open and MERLIN STOLZENBURG enters. He has come to see Kenneth about a new hotel which he wants to build on the West Coast. Merlin owns a chain of hotels which are located in New York, London and Paris. Here the picture grows dim and another scene comes into view. This scene is a Premiere showing of a new picture, The Great Lovers. The star actor and actress are LARRY KATTMAN and BETTY KIEFER. Larry is the current glamour boy of the silver screen while Betty is the favorite pin up girl of show business. On hand to see the premiere is EILEEN HABER- KAMP with her husband. Eileen has won the title of Mrs. America and the best housewife of the year. With Eileen is another friend, LOIS SCHROEDER. Lois has just returned from Europe where she serv- ed as a captain in the Army Nurse Corps. Here the sorceress explained that again the picture had faded, after a few minutes she resumed her revelations. I see, she said, the University of California. Here FOREST SAWMILLER is the star halfback for the football team. The team has just played a tough game, but they have won. Frog, as he was called in his high school days, made two touchdowns. Also here is JOHN SCHNEIDER, who has added the title of Professor to his name. John is a professor of Psychology, a genius with I. Q. tests. My picture now changes to Ohio State University. Here VERNON CLAUSING is instructor of Vocational Agriculture. Vernon has developed a new kind of corn which he guarantees will produce 250 bushels to the acre. Next I see NED HOGE, who is an atomic chemical expert. Ned and his secretarial assistant, JOYCE NIEMEYER, are working on atomic energy which will replace gasoline. It will also heat houses for two months without refueling. The picture of Toledo Hospital now comes into my view. Here LOIS ANN MONTGOMERY is superintendent of nurses. Lois is also president of the visiting nurse's association. Now I see a large dairy farm. It is the most beautiful place in the country side. This farm belongs to ROGENE LEHMAN. Rogene's farm is the largest of its kind in the country. And now still another place comes into my view, the sorceress said, this is Mademoiselle Carol's Millinery Shoppe. The owner of this exclusive shoppe is CAROL KUCK. Another friend, GRACE EVERSMAN, who is a Powers Model, models Mademoiselle's gowns at the fashion reviews. Both Carol and Grace have been very suc- cessful in their occupations. Also in New York is ROBERT SETTLAGE. He is the minister at the famed Little Church Around the Corner. And now, said the sorceress, the crystal remains blank, which means that there is no more to tell. I left that dark and gloomy room much satisfied with my visit, though I did not recover for many days, from the surprise of these revelations.

This concert was to have been part of an ice cream social presented during the summer, but due to the polio epidemic it was postponed and the social part was cancelled. At Christmas time the band was joined by the chorus and presented a sacred concert, incorporating tableau scenes as part of the program. The auditorium was filled to capacity for this annual event. A large audience attended the New Knoxville School spring band concert. A very inter- esting program, including modern and popular numbers was presented to an enthusiastic audience. The Senior Class expresses its deep appreciation to Mr. 84 Mrs. F. F. Eversman for their interest and kind direction, which has produced such a fine band for our school and com- munity.

The opening game of the season was lost by the margin of one run to Cridersville, the score being two to one. The loss of five regulars of the previous season was keenly felt, especially in the hitting department. The Rangers went on to win their next three consecutive games. In winning the game with Buckland the New Knoxville team scored nine runs, and were aided materially by nine Buckland errors in achieving their victory. In the return game with Cridersville the Rangers turned the tables and they garnered ten hits and made only one error. The last game of the season was played at Anna and the Rangers came from behind in the top of the seventh inning to score eight runs and defeat the Shelby County undefeated league leading Anna Rockets by a score of nine to eight. The Rangers finished a more successful season than was anticipated when the season began, having a percentage of 750. , Page Sixty two 1949 FALL PLAYERS AVERAGES Players POS.

In gaining more experience in the early season games they hope to be a real contender for the Auglaize County tournament championship. improve their baseball team combined fall Eleven of these boys Four of the regulars are seniors and they with their teammates will strive to hitting and fielding to give New Knoxville High School the same high class it has enjoyed in former years. In this way the Rangers hope to bring the and spring baseball campaign to a successful close. FRESHMEN BASEBALL PLAYERS freshmen boys came out for baseball practice during the fall season. None had a chance to break into the lineup of any of the regular games, but daily practice and intrasquad games has given them invaluable experience. There are some promising rookies among this group, who will undoubtedly play a lot of baseball for New Knoxville High School before they graduate. Definite positions have not been determined for these young players, but they have been shifted around tomsttludy them and make an analysis of where they can play best and do the team the most g . These freshmen rookies will be competing, with underclassmen of this year's squad, for positions vacated when four regular seniors graduate this spring.

RESERVE SEASON The reserve basketball team had a record of seven victories and nine defeats for the 1949-1950 season. Early in the year the team was made up mostly of freshmen and sophomores. Later three underclassmen of the varsity squad, played on the reserve team to give them valuable playing experience. Ten members of the reserve squad were freshmen. There are some very good prospects in this group as well as in the other underclassmen. With added experience their ability as basketball players will improve. Also, with a year or two to go these boys have a good chance to grow up giving New Knoxville the size it has been accustomed to in former years. 1949-1950 RECORD New Knoxville St. Henry . . .... 20 New Knoxville Minster ........ . .
