Old Doc Hillary thinks his son Bob is coming home from medical school to practice with him, But Young Doc has been offered a rich and easy big-city practice with Dr. Brand- -and also a chance to marry Helen, his daughter. It all sounds fine, but for two things: First, Young Doc is still in love with his home-town girl, and second, he doesn ' t have nerve enough to tell his father that he isn ' t going to practice with him. The home-town girl breaks off her engagement when she hears of his plans, and Bob goes off on a trip with the Brands without facing his father. He leaves him a note--and when Old Doc reads it, he suffers a stroke. It ' s then that neighborly Ma Brown takes things in hand. She fakes a telegram to Old Doc, that makes him think Young Doc is taking over the home-town practice after all, and Old Doc dies happy in that belief. But Young Doc has no intention of doing any such thing--and says so when he hears what Ma Brown has done. Then, in a com- pelling scene of great emotional force, Ma shows Young Doc what half a century of practice with the home folks has meant in human lives saved. It ' s up to Young Doc to choose his practice- -and his wife! 11 SENIOR PLAY RINGLE FURNITURE STORE Warsaw, Indiana HARTSOCK MOTOR SALES Warsaw, Indiana CHINWORTH ' S APPLIANCES Warsaw, Indiana BALL BEAUTY SHOP Warsaw, Indiana CLASS 0F ' 53 JUNIOR PLAY PLAY CAST Dr. Allenby, a dentist Jerry Rhodes Mrs. Wagner, Dr. Allenby ' s mother-in-law Judy Hunter Hannah Hawks, the hired girl from the country Marlene Bennett Chuck Allenby, trouble is his middle name Daryle Hill Barbie Allenby, his sister Donna Barnhart Janie Allenby, another sister Mary Ann Butler Billie Allenby, The baby brother Nub Niles Patsy Gardner, a neighbor girl Arlene Valentine Nancy Pomeroy, Barbie ' s friend Dixie Kuhn Hugojarvis, a sophisticated youth Warren Sloan George Bennet, friend and ally of Chuck Bob Likens Ginny Grant, Chuck ' s girl friend Sue Ferverda Director, Lester Young ■■V5 jgS ;M ml ' : ' 3 s ' Hla V MB ' i f --i ! ■W i.y ■38r. % w 13 CLASS POEM Each year from Webster High School, About the end of May, There go a group of Seniors, To make their life-time way. This year the Class of ' 53 Will leave these halls of fame, And here and there we ' ll see them go, To play in life ' s big game. This class has twenty members Who hope they ' ll see the day, When that bright red diploma Is in their hand to stay. With seven boys and thirteen girls, The girls could have full sway; But usually that ' s not the case For each one has his say. Each class must have a president To help them on their way And so to Jake the Honor came To lead them day by day. Now just in case that Prexy ' s gone The vice must take the ' chair ' Nub Niles is much the shorter man But he can do his share. A money man is most essential In handling all the business, And Warren Sloan is just the man To keep it straight, I guess. In this, the class of ' 53 Each member has a place And if he fails to do his part The class soon sets them back a space. To name the others of the class Will be quite easily done, So let us start at the top of the list And name them one by one. A Barnhart girl is first in line, She ' s oftimes called just Bumper And when it comes to grades and sports She ' s certainly quite the jumper. Judy Hunter went a hunting Many, many months ago, Soon she found her one and only, Now she has him under tow. Ray and Louie, the bachelor boys Travel along, quite happily too, But I ' ll make one guess, so will you, It won ' t be long until their attached too. Mary Ann has quit her flirting, For she ' s found her ideal man. Time will tell if she can mould him, Into Mary ' s little lamb. Bobbie Likens like ' s his hunting When it comes to catching Kuhns Since he caught his little Dixie He is singing lover tunes. Sue and Nub have quite a problem, After school just what to do. Shall it be ' I do ' forever-- Or ' till then ' I ' ll wait for you. Lorena says she ' s college bound, We do hope she likes it there, For we know its folks just like her That can take the college dare. Arlene has the nickname Ar And she likes it very fine, But she wonders who will ask her, Will you be mine ar Valentine. Daryle Hill has quite a record Which he ' s made in High School here, For in sports and also romance, He is thought of as a ' Dear ' . Marlene, Carol Dolly, three, Are widows they say, who can ' t you see, And over and over again they say, To you dear one, so true I ' ll be . Bonnie and Joyce were settled they thought, But things have changed, you see And now they both are puzzled As to what their future will be. Norma Kaufman is back again To join our class once more. This makes us just an even twenty Who in May will leave these doors. So as we leave these halls of fame, We ' d like to leave this thought. We hope we always will retain The best of all you ' ve taught.

Phone 75 North Webster CLASS HISTORY We the class of ' 53 started out as Freshmen with a grand total of 28 members. Before the year was over we lost Roger Mock, Sonny Kaufman, and Jim Marchand. We really went to town in our Sophomore year. We began making money by selling Webster jackets, small cedar chests, a paper drive and bake sales. We also made history by the winning of the class basketball tourney. In the fall of our Sophomore year we lost Judith Wyss and Roger Boggs. In the spring Holly Ann Burt and Jim Mabie left us. We ran a parking lot during the Mermaid Festival this summer to add money to our class treasury. Our Junior year was a full and happy one. We began by selling concessions at noon and at ball games, selling Christmas cards, bake sales, and the Junior Play, Seventeen is Terrific. We worked at the Mermaid Festival selling cokes at the Wrestling matches and ball games. This year we gained a new member, Bonnie Mater, who hailed from Pikeville, Kentucky. We lost Norma Kaufman, John Hiner, and Johnnye Pearson during the course of the year. Our senior year began on schedule. We had a bake sale, cake draw and set a new record on magazine sales. One of our members, Judy Hunter Blue, had enough credits to graduate from school after the first semester. An old member came trotting back to us from Anderson- -Norma Kaufman. We had six charter members. They are Carol Martin, Donna Barnhart, Jake Rhodes, Bud Neibert, Bob Likens, and Ray Biltz. All in all, with setting new state, county, and Webster records in basketball and the Senior play we had a busy year of 52 and 53.

My, how the class has changed. Carol ' s ambition was to become a model. Well, her dream has come true. She is now a top model for the Hang-over Modeling Agency in Paris, France. You remember all the man trouble she had back in 1953; yes, she solved that problem too. She has settled down with her one and only and is keeping up her career at the same time. She made the trip back here in Ray Biltz ' s new space rocket. He has quite a fleet--from piper cubs to rockets. Judy Hunter Blue , the married member of our class, was able to be with us having been forced to return to America from South Africa with her husband because he is suffering from typhus. Shorty Butler Driver , now in the fat lady act for the Barnum Bailey Circus, and who also features her triplet midgets, provided entertainment for us by tell- ing of her experiences. You should have seen Marlene Bennett Wagoner and her stairsteps of three children. They were all dressed in Blue Bell outfits. Mert is now head of the Blue Bell Corporation. Bud Neibert managed to land a furlough to come to the reunion, because his former four marriages just didn ' t work, he de- cided to make a career of the Army, where he is head cook. He has taken up residence for his ten day leave at Bob and Dixie ' s farm outside of North Webster. Bob has it pretty easy with three husky boys to help with the work, besides the three boys there are also two girls, which makes life easy for Dixie too. Daryle Hill, a former 4 stripe Trojan, has graduated from Manchester College and is back in Webster coaching the Trojans. He hopes to have a County Tourney team like there was the year his class graduated. So far their record is 14 wins and no losses. Looks good, Whis. Jake Rhodes is playing for the Rochester Royals. He is thinking about a pro team of his own when he retires from playing. Sue and Nub say they had a pleasant trip up from Florida. They left their two oldest boys in charge of their dairy. They have a good sized dairy now. It took a lot of hard work to get where they are but they made it. We needn ' t worry about accidents or sickness at our reunions. We have two nurses present, Lorena and Norma . They are now on the staff of the Bluff ton Clinic. On their way here they stopped at Indianapolis and picked up Delores Denekas who is a pharmacy at Hook ' s Drug Store, Dolly has worked her way from a soda jerk at Thornburg ' s in Webster, through pharmacist school, to a position in one of the largest drug store chains. Bonnie brought her husband, Tommy Buskirk, formerly from Leesburg, along with her. She tells us they have taken over the- -Newstand in Warsaw. They have enlarged it and have a booming business. Brother, was I surprised when I saw a fashion plate of a young lady coming toward me. I didn ' t think any of our class had children beyond the teens yet. She came over to talk to me and I saw it was none other than our Joycie. She is now editor of the Fashion magazine- -she still is undecided on the marriage side of life--just doesn ' t know which one to settle down with. Donna and her boss, who is her husband, lead an exciting life as FBI agents in Washington, D. C. Warren and Arlene came all the way from New York to be with us. Warren is now head of General Electric located in New York. Arlene is his Private Secretary. That word private sure takes in a lot of territory now a days. It sure was good to see the class after s pending the winter in Cuba. But my wife and I are still lookirig forward to the summer at our Log Cabin resort.

In early May we ordered our class rings which we like very much. In June we parked cars at the Mermaid Festival which was a very good project. As soon as school started we sold con- cessions for home ball games and noons. The first day of school we chose new class officers. They are as follows: President, John Weimer; Vice President, Douglas Bowser; Secretary, Martha Fordyce; Treasurer, Anna Henwood. Two very good sponsors Mrs. Richard Beck and Mrs. Mark Copeland. We had one new student this year, Shirley Butler, from Albion. She left us after the first month of school. At the end of the first semester Mary Lou Gaerte heard the Wedding Bells ringing and left us to go into the married life. The first week of school we chose our class play and started practicing right away. On September 26, 1952, we presented the play, Deacon Dubbs. The characters were as follows: Deacon Dubbs -Richard Bennett; Amos Coleman- John Nine; Rawdon Crawley-Dave Abbott; Major McNutt, Douglas Bowser; Deuteronomy Jones-John Weimer; Rose Raleigh-Carroll Thomas; Miss Philipena-Shirley Gregory; Emily Dale-Martha Fordyce; Trixie Coleman-Leora Warble; Yennie Yensen- Elaine Boman; several other class members acted as villagers and sang special songs. The Story: Deacon Dubbs--A folly, Middle-aged widower from Sorghum Center, State ' o West Virginny, decides to visit his nephew, Amos Coleman, and the play concerns itself with the laughable adventures of the Deacon in the village and in the city. Amos is in love with Rose Raleigh, the brave little school ma ' am, who is something of a mystery to the inhabitants of the village. Her little farm is about to be sold by auction as the result of a foreclosure suit, but Amos and the Deacon have raised enough money to cover the note. The note is held by the Empire State Trust Company, and one of their agents, Rawdon Crawley, in looking over the property, discovers a valuable vein of iron ore on the hill belonging to the little school ma ' am. Crawley decides to bid on the farm and has unlimited capital at his control. The Deacon tastes the water in the cooler and becomes a little jolly. He determines that the farm must remain in Rose ' s possession at all events, and to prevent the Trust Company ' s bid he pushed Crawley in an old well, and sitting on the cover calmly bids two thousand dollars and the farm reverts to its original owner, Rose Raleigh. Several weeks later is the morning of Rose and Amos ' wedding. Rose has spent three years in the city and during that time had married Rawdon Crawley, but he deserted her and she returned to her little cottage and began to teach school. Later she learned from Rawdon ' s mother that he had been killed in a drunken brawl in Canada and she finally consents to marry Amos. The Deacon is smitten by the mature char ms of Miss Popover and tries to propose to the charming Philipena in a ludicrously funny scene on the morning of Rose ' s wedding. Many pranks are played on the middle-aged couple by Trixie Coleman, the village cut-up, who steals Miss Philipena ' s headgear and poses as the object of the Deacon ' s affections. Rawdon Crawley, Rose ' s husband, turns up and interrupts her wedding ceremony, but he is arrested. Rawdon escapes from the penitentiary and interrupts a husking bee held in honor of the Deacon ' s return from a trip to New York. After many interrruptions the Deacon finally puts the ring on Miss Philipen ' s finger and announces their en- gagement. Rawdon, in trying to escape from the police, is killed in a railroad accident, and the play closes with the Deacon proposing a honeymoon for four back to old Serghum Center, State o ' West Virginny. Much additional comedy is furnished during the action of the play by the bibulous Major McNutt and the efforts of a Swede hired girl to make the farm hand Deuteronomy pop the question. Country song, country dances, and plenty of action characterize the adventures of Deacon Dubbs. ADY ' S TACKLE BOS Live Artificial Bait NESTLE BEAUTY SHOP B. B.

Rather than selling Webster jackets, we decided to sell sweat shirts with the Trojan on the front. We also sold red and white car plates with Webster Trojans written on them. After-the Pierceton game we had a cake walk in which we added $91. 34 to our class treasury. Our class also had a very exciting thing happen to us this year by picking out our class rings which we get in our Junior year in September. On October 11, 1952 we all gathered at the schoolhouse at 5:45 on a Saturday morning and embarked in a bus for the Science and Industry Building and the Field Museum in Chicago. After we spent the day in the building we went on top of the Board of Trade building and looked over the City of Chicago. Then at 8:00 we got to see an ice show which we enjoyed very much. We arrived in Webster at 4:00 A. M. Sunday morning. We had a class party on May 8, 1953 out at Rodney Baughn ' s house and we had a lot of fun together eating and playing games. It was a potluck supper. Our class sponsor this year is Herbert Moore and he has assisted us in our events. At the beginning of the year we started out with 27 members in our class with one new member Joe Sizemore, later on Joe moved. Now, we are down to our regular 26. FRESHMEN NEWS We lowly Freshman went through initiation with a bang. Most of us thought it was a lot of fun. We elected our officers and selected our colors, motto and flowers.

Our class name is Spartans, our colors are blue and white, our flower is the white rose, and our motto is ' Onward ever, Backward never. ' Our class sponsor is Mr. Young. We had a bake sale last fall which brought in over thirty dollars. We are plann- ing another for this spring. Our class dues this year are five dollars. We had a skating party for one of our class parties and had a very nice time. We are looking forward to our Sophomore year.

One of the unusual games of the season was the Pierceton game. The Webster players stood in groups on the floor while the Cubs took turns holding the ball. The final score was 18-13. It was very unusual winning over Warsaw, twice in the same season. The first game was won by the narrow margin of six points. The second game was won by the magnificent score of 65-38. Another unusual thing was meeting and defeating Sidney in the finals of both the County and Sectional Tourneys. The Sidney boys rallied in the County from an 1 1 point deficit at the three quarter mark to come within three points of a victory. However, the tide had changed in the Sectional and Webster rolled to its 26th victory easily. The highlight of the year was the winning of the County and Sectional Tourneys and advancing to the South Bend Regional. In the afternoon game the Trojans overcame the tremendous height advantage to scalp the Knox Redskins to the tune of fourteen points.

We also had a cake draw at one of our ball games. To help make points for organized activities we went to Warsaw to bowl for six weeks. I ' m sure the girls enjoyed themselves. This year we were happy to be able to welcome eight new members in to G.A.A. They are as follows: Diane Pierce, Peggy Rhodes, Janet Luce, Nance Carter, Jean Anne Maloney, Norma Barnhart, June Conley, and Bev Beckler.
