Then school days with their mem'ries will bring Classmates, teachers, and parties. How we used to laugh and sing! For these days we can never be sorry. Shed we a tear for days long gone by When hearts were light as a feather When we lived our lives at Paradise High And worried seldom or never. And now to the friends from whom we part, Loyal, true, and clever, The time has come for us to depart, But we'll remember you ever. Twenty

BETTY J. SHIRK llseityll Tanawan Editorial Staff g Class Secretary 45 Intramurals 4. Betty, a Salisbury graduate, has chosen Paradise High as a steppingstone to college. Although she had only been with us a few weeks she was chosen class secretary. Along with a lovely personality, Betty is a good student and plays the piano with the best of them. EARL C. USNER Uaio Tanawan Editorial Staff 5 Intramurals 4. Giggle here, giggle there, giggle, giggle everywhere! It's Usie, the little bundledof nerges tfiathwasi donaged us bby Salisbury. Hc's ready to 0 an t ing or is cass. emem er that poem he recited at the ghristmas dance or those class games at noon? Above all, Earl has proved to be a good student and a good sport. gtaclua tion pay In the past four years of high school days, We've worked to learn the world's best ways. We studied our science and our math, We controlled our giggles and our laughs. Graduation has come at last, The final parting is approaching fast. Will we remember all the faces? Of course, we will, in all their places. Now we are thrown into the future strife Where we must carry on our life, The life which we have tried to mold, To live, to learn, and to hold. Each of us will go his way, But we shall return some day To live again our past together, Which will remain in our minds forever. BETTY SHIRK. Nineteen

So much can happen in a period of ten years. Wars begin and cease. Heroes are made. Others replace them. Classes graduate, the gradu- ates sometimes never seeing each other again. Not so for this class of 1943. Here we are all waiting to enter the dining room of Dorothy Ro rer. Since the night of our graduation, Dot has been climbing higher and higher up the ladder of success. One look at the mansion she calls home verifies this. Kenny Beane likewise has had good fortune with him. Our class Romeo is now a star in Hollywood. Maybe Sinatra made the women swoon, but Beanie-woo-woo! Over in the corner is that vivacious twosome which it seems will never be separated. They even live side by side in two little white houses, trimmed in green, in the suburbs of Strasburg. That's right. It's Pauline and Ruth but not Mowrer and Dull any longer. The other Pauline in our class has become a farmer's wife. What a family she has, Jeepers. Coming in we noticed an autogiro, and just now we've found out that it belongs to Big Willis Herr. Big Willis now manages the store that his father owns. Most startling of the changes is that of Hood Hershey. Don com- pletely revolutionized chemistry at the mere age of 27 by the discovery of the atomesse, the female atom. As we are getting ready to sit down, all of us are shocked to see who is going to ask the blessin . It is Earl Usner, with the prefix Rev. What a change from that fidgety little giggler we used to know. By the way, his fear of never being an uncle has proved useless. Sitting next to Rev. Usner is a dignified lady whom I just now recognize. She is Herb Sheaffer. They say she is now singing with the Metropolitan Opera Company. That contralto voice really took her far. Who is that Army Oflicer? Well, believe it or not, that's Bill Frew. He's a little taller now, and the string of girls that tags after him is getting longer every day. He has been separated from his old partner, Roland Danner, for the first time since 1944. Roll meanwhile has re- placed Mr. Yunninger as the owner of the largest chicken factory in Gordonville. Carl Hohman now is a pilot employed by T. W. A. I'll bet you couldn't guess who is the hostess on his plane! It's a condensed Esther Rynier. During the conversation, we learned that Gloria Feister, after havin won the crown of Miss America of 1954, is planning a Hollywood career. We learned, too, that Skee Ressler is now selling Wembleys in the basement of Sears and Roebuck. Many have taken that fatal plurlrge into matrimony, boys especially. Take Mick Benner, for instance. e plays his saxophone at night and then takes his pay check home to Arlene and the ki s. Jack Acker is busy delivering coal all day. When he goes home, he must take Jackie Jr. and little Loie a pickaback ride. Now it's little Loie who says Faster, Daddy, faster. ' From our class came that speedking of the typewriter, Mary Graybill. Just last week she typed four letters while working at the Paradise Seed Company. Speaking of keys, I forgot to mention another member of Cappy Benner's Band, gianist Jean Kellenberger. Maybe Mary can tickle typewriter keys, ut you ought to hear Jean tickle the ivones. The remaining members of the class are now teaching in various schools. Dorothy Clark came back to Paradise and is now faculty advisor of The Pioneer. Incidentally The Pioneer took first lace at the press conference the first year Dorothy took the reins. Betty Shirk is now teaching at the Pennsylvania State College. Profes- sor Shirk can keep her students under control at all times, so she says. Shortly after graduation Bob Denlinger went to Johnsonburg. The little letter correspondence started in English IV really developed into something. He is now teaching in Johnsonburg. Dinner is over and all of us have returned to our private lives to remain there till 1964 when we shall meet again. Twenty-one
