IPFHS PERRIURIHD. PUBLISHED BY we CLASS mr 1953 DI CIHTI QD ' 1 ii if f QV 'Q f Wil. 5, We the class of 1953 dedicate this memoir of our high school days to Mrs. Jennie L. Seaman, the oldest living graduate Cl905D of Perry High School Nearly a half century ago the foundations of our high school were laid thru the first class to graduate. Ever since 1905 our school has stood as a monument to education, built not only on the sands of time, but out of them. Since then, there has been a constant flux of new faces, new ideals, and new ideas, yet the school has been to both her class and our class a house of learn- ing. Its walls protected us against the ill-winds of fear and ig- norance. Its roof withstood the storm of intolerance. Its win- dows let in the light of knowledge and truth. Its chimney loomed well as a landmark. Its heating unit served as a hearth, radi- ating the warmth of friendship with teachers and classmates. As its lights shone thru her life, may its lights continue to shane thruout our lives, making footprints Non the sands of time.

Daniel Kline Carl Hartman LHSS IS The door of this, our school, is swung wide in welcome to you, our parents, teachers, and friends. Step over the threshold and join us as we retrace our steps up to the present time. Twelve years ago a group of six year-olds with varying emo- tions entered a new world. Clinging to the reassuring hands of our parents, brothers or sisters we were confused by new faces, new manners, new customs, a whole new environment. Learning to read, to write, and to work with numbers were our accomplishments these first years of which we are justly proud. Eventually ed- ucation became a reality in our lives. For some, school was sheer drudgeryg for others, there was a thrill in discovering the unknown. Another new world unfolded as we entered Junior High School. The new system of changing from room to room frequently confused us and we sometimes found ourselves in wrong classes. Thru par- ticipation in extracurricular activities we gained skill, lasting friendship, and the qualities of good sportsmanship. Then the day came when we became Freshmen. We were really in High School, on the final road to graduation. On our faces could be seen determination, ambition, industry, and fearlessness to face new subjects. A complete athletic program, made avail- able to us in our Freshmen year, engaged the interests of many members of the class, we responded enthusiastically. David Smith represented our class on the varsity basketball team that won a division championship. In our Sophmore year we listed 25 members. Once again we were well represented in sports. Jeanette Adam, Dolores Lamm, and Doris Kreider played on the lassie's basketball team. we visited the County Jail as a social studies project. We spon- sored a cake sale that year. Our Junior year found us ready and eager to grapple with more complex problems. We chose our class colors, green and gray we purchased jackets and rings. On November lO, 1950, Mr. Lamm directed actors of the class in their first auditions for our Junior Class Play, nln The Doghousen. Our class was graciously blessed with those talented musicians, Patricia Adam, Daniel Kline David Smith and Robert Dunkelberger. 6111 At last we acquired the lofty, often envied, title, nSeniorn. This was the most eventful year in our entire history. We assumed complete responsibility of the candy business and with it we developed the patience and courtesy needed to deal with noisy and impatient customers. On October 30, we sponsered the annual Halloween Social. This among a series of other activities constituted fund-raising projects to support our trip to washing- ton. Our sport shoes were worn by the members participating in CLASS HISTORY Ccontinuedl intramural sports as well as by the varsity players in basketball soccer, and baseball. Karl Engel, John Leibensperger Daniel- Kline, and Robert Dunkelberger, played the game well whether Perry lost or won. Dolores Lamm and David Smith represented Perry ln panel discussions with Topton and Longswamp. Seniors took leading parts in the operetta, 'The Governor's Daughter' under the direction of Mr. John Talnack. we chose our class flower, the yellow roseg and 'Tonight We Launch, Where Shall We Anchor, became our motto. As a Problems of Democracy class, we visited the County Courthouse and City Hall, accompanied by Mr. Harold Klahr. As we close our books, we look back and recall sweet and cherished memories. Our baby shoes are out grown. Our sport- shoes and our dress shoes are stuffed away with pleasant memories Our work boots have become stronger in spite of hard usage. But now we choose another pair of shoes--shoes that will make firm imprints on our journey into the future. Hats off to the past, but coats off to the future. LHSS ILL With thousands of other graduates in the high schools of our nation, we, the members of the class of l953 of Perry High School close the doors on twelve eventful years of school.

Q students of Senior Class of May in the and name next to carry out CI LHSS PRQPRHQ This being the age of modern inventions it would be quite common for someone to invent anything from a radar controlled space helmet to a pair of magnetic socks. Being interested in inventions myself, I began to experiment one day. Having fastened a few boards over an odd looking metal frame, attaching several wheels and a small self-made motor, I attempted to start the con- traption. Suddenly I was engulfed in a cloud of peculiar smelling smoke. I began to feel dizzy, almost as though I was in a dif- ferent world. It seemed as if many years had passed and it was the year 1973. Suddenly I saw a crowd of people, some of whom were quite familiar. Look at that Naval Officer walking down the street. It looks like Karl Engel. He always did want to join the navy. And that building! It must be a doctor's office -- and there is Doris Kreider, a medical secretary, working in the office. I always knew she would make good some day. Who's that coming out of the doctor's office now? It's his nurse, Marie Gehret, who has reached her life's ambition. Over there is Carl Hartman, coming out of that store. He is married and the owner of a successful farm. As I passed a building, I saw this sign on the door, nElla Miller's Seamstress Servicen. No wonder everyone around here is wearing such pretty clothes. There goes Dolores Lamm with her arms full of luggage. She must be taking another vacation. She always said she wanted to travel. When I passed that store, I saw David Smith, a physical edu- cation teacher at the local high school. And there's Dorothy Strouse, a secretary for a local firm. And that tall fellow walking behind her--why it's none other than Robert Dunkelberger, an electrical engineer. Janice Henry and Patricia Adam have just gone into that very clean-looking building, where they are em- ployed as medical secretaries. Here comes Richard Herbst in a sailor's uniform. He has at- tained his life's ambition with a career in the Navy. That looks like John Leibensperger out for an afternoon drive in his new car. He must be making plenty of money on that big farm of his. I just passed Jeanette Adam down the street. She was on her way to work. I understand she really enjoys her job as a hygienist here in town. And Elaine Adam is walking out of the local hospital where she has worked her way up to supervising nurse. Who's that distinguished looking gentleman coming outcM'that store? Why it's Daniel Kline, who is now in show business. when he was still in high school, he always said,nCalifornia or bust.n Being in the Armed Forces myself, I was certainly glad to see all my former classmates again. Suddenly the crowd began to fade. My head began to clear and I could no longer see my friends. Even my invention faded away into nothing. I must have been dreaming, for here I sit, still wondering what to include in that Class Prophecy I'm sup- posed to write. Any suggestions?
