Q- .fl - X CLASS HISTORY w ln the fall of 1945, forty-two players of the Class of '49 lined up for the X opening tip-off of a four-quarter game at New Paris High School. They knew they had four hard quarters ahead in the game of high school. Miss Agnes Cripe was elected coach of this team of '49, Don Hoover was chosen as captain with Conrad Neff as co-captain. Betty Mishler was the scorekeeper with Marilyn Shannon as financial agent. A short, much-needed rest periodwas enjoyed at the high school in the form of a backwards party on December 4. Believe us when we say the party was well named. The whistle blew and the ga.me started agpin until an automatic timeout was called for Christmas vacation. We also had a short tirneout for a kid party on March 29, 1946. The first quarter ended with the following players having fouled out: John Bleskesley, Lois Flora, Richard Wagner, and Georgia Hite. 5 The whistle started the second quarter. Our team started with Marilyn 9 Shannon leading as captain, Ruby Clark as co-captain, Betty Mishler as score- keeper, and Roma Herrington as financial agent. New teammates were: Kime L Tahara, Richard White, and Doris Lehman. The game was interrupted two times, , , 5 once for a party at the scout cabin and once for one at the gym. Seven more of r . our teammates fouled out in this quarter. They were Billy Boyer, LeRoy Grabill, N Alice Miller, Kime Tahara, Mary Wharton, and Arlen Slabaugh. , The third quarter started with Don Hoover again leading our teaxng Mary Lou Stuckxnan was his co-captain, Betty Mishler again our scorekeeper, and Junior Beer. our financial agent. Mr. Anstead was chosen as an assistant coach to Miss Cripe. New members of our team were: Evelyn VanDiepenbos, Harold Miller, ' Q I John Haville, and Phyllis Reixnschisel. After a short scrimmage we called time- K A ,ZH out and held a box social in Betty Mishler's barn on October 16. It was one of the I 'P- J most successful class parties ever held at N. P. H. S. What other class ever V made money from a party? Bob Frenger was given some livestock besides. Mrs. V Herrington was appointed by the PTO as class mother to act as manager. We g . added more points to our goal by selling more magazines than had ever been sold ' before. We enjoyed another tfrneout at Geyer's Dam--the occasion being an ice- skating party on January 24. After this rest period we renewed the ga.me with vigor. Automatic timeout was called so we could have our Junior-Senior Recep- tion on April 23. Our theme was 'Starlite Garden . As speaker of the evening we had Rev. Conway from Bristol who gave bird calls in the moon light. Pat Miller, harpist from Goshen, furnished dinner music. After this quarter the following players fouled out: Richard White, Arthur Hunsburger, Harold Miller, John'I-Iavflle, and Phyllis Reimschisel. We rounded out this third quarter with , I' a play called 'Aunt Tillie Goes To Town . I The fourth and last quarter brought our players back on the floor thirty- , four strong ready for the last struggle in the game. Don Hoover as captain, S Conrad Neff as his co-captain, Betty Mishler as scorekeeper, and Junior Beer as financial agent, were our leaders. Mrs. George Neff was appointed as our ' class mother to act as manager. Mr. Hollar was chosen to take the place of Mr. Anstead as he too fouled out. As seniors we fought hard until timeout was called to give our senior play, 'Spooky Junction , on October l4 and 15. We re umed play until we retired to a rest period on January 1 for a New Years Party held at the high school. On January 8 our entire school was saddened by the untimely death ofCarl Blosser, one of our faithful teammates. To honor Carl we dedicated our annual to his memory. OnApril Z9 the Class of '50 entertained us at a banquet and reception. This gave us renewed strength to complete our year with another party, a senior trip, and baccalaureate services on May 1. On May 6 comrnence- ment, the final gun, pronounced us winners in the high school game, better pre- pared for the bigger game of life, which is 'Not Finished Just Begun .
