As the Seasons Echo Through Pierceton High 1966 - 67 DEDICATION MR. LEE NICHOLS We, the annual staff of 1966-67, wish to dedicate this yearbook to Mr. Lee Nichols, who for sixteen years served as custodian of the Pierce ton school. Mr. Nichols, who is fondly remembered by many students as well as the faculty, became custodian in 19U2 and served until 1958. At the time of his death, November 12, 1966, he was serving as janitor at the First National Bank in Warsaw. Mr. Nichols also served on the town board for three years and was a member of the Masons and Eastern Star. His pleasant smile and cheerful disposition were attributes which made the day a little brighter for students and faculty alike.

PIERCETON, INDIANA SERVING THE PROSPEROUS WHITKO AREA ! 20 PIERCETON, INDIANA, WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 10, 1969 NUMBER 33 Based on a plan for improving standards of giving, broadening the potential for total communi- ty participation and encourag- 2 THE PIERCETON PRESS — Wed., Sept. 10, 1969 New Goal Set r If all goes well, this year’s United Fund campaign will far exceed its goal and will be the pace-setting campaign for all future campaigns in Kosciusko county. Under the direction of Joseph J. Shellabarger, campaign chair- man for the September - Octo- ber drive, a new direction for the campaign is already taking effect. and weaknesses derived from previous campaigns, the aggres- sive plan for the fall campaign will hit hard at turning the tide of successful campaigns of the past, but ones which lacked depth in organization and parti- cipation in both fund raising and giving. Shellabarger stated that we have successfully met our goal each time. “However,” he said, “we have neglected to take into account what the real potential of the county is and have no) set our goals on what we car accomplish for our own bene r United Fund Campaign following as examples: 1. Kosciusko county per capita income (receiving) in recent years has consistently been in the top three in the state. In 1967 we ranked second, topped only by Bartholomew county (Columbus). 2. Kosciusko county per capita contribution (giving) to its Unit- ed Fund has consistently rank- ed in the lower half of those in the state. In 1967 Allen county (Fort Wayne) per capita giving was more than 50 per cent high- er than ours with less per capita income. 3. Only an estimated one out of two families contributes to the United Fund effort, although an estimated four out of five will have occasion to use at least one of the agency’s serv- ices in the course of a year’s time. 4. Only an estimated one fami- ly in fifty are Fair Share Givers C6 of one per cent of income — $30 for each $5,000 of income). Shellabarger believes the U- nited Funds real potential can be met if they can motivate campaign workers and donors. “With the proper desire, cour- age and pride we all have in us,” he says, “we can put our past performance in this yearly cam- paign to shame. But it will take far better effort from all con- cerned — campaign leadership, volunteer solicitors, raised levels of giving by everyone in- stead of the few to meet our fair share goal regardless of the campaign goal.” Building a fire under cam- paigners and contributors is not the only effort being undertaken to put a new face on the cam- paign. Plans for 1969-70 cam- paign include recruiting, edu- cating, training and motivating enthusastic volunteer solicitors. Organization of the campaign be- gan early and refinement and re- classification of campaign divi- sions were made for better con- trol and effectiveness. The en- tire potential list of donors is now assembled on data processing cards and is being used for bet- ter organization and planning to cover 100 per cent of all residents in Kosciusko county. The cam- paign team believes this plan- ning will help in the long run toward meeting the goal. The campaign begins Septem- ber 15. Approximately 1000 peo- ple are involved in one way or another, all with his or her own degree of involvement, concern and desire to do a totally suc- cessful job. The aggregate ef- fort will spell success or failure. But with its sights set high, as they are, the United Fund cam- paign of 1969 appears to be head- ed for more than one new goal.

Ernie Lee Wallen Killed In Action In Viet Nam Mr. and Mrs. Newton Wallen of Pierceton were first inform- ed of the death of their son, 20- year-old Private First Class Er- nie Lee Wallen, at 20 minutes after 8 a.m. Thursday by two army officers from Fort Wayne who appeared at the Wallen home. Staff Sergeant Elmer Gar- ner and a sergeant Anderson told the Wallens of the death of their son at 10 a.m. August 30, near Da Nang, Viet Nam, dur- ing action. The officers told the couple more information would be forth-coming. They offered to inform another son of the couple, Woodrow Wallen, in the service at Fort Lee, Va., of the tragedy. Pfc. Ernie Lee Wallen had last talked to his parents by phone and other members of the family July 3, this year. They received a letter from him Sat- urday, August 30, which he had written eight days earlier telling them not to worry about him. He also wrote his brother on August 29, (the day before his death), ' which Woodrow did not receive until after army officers had told him of his brother’s death at 4:30 p.m. Thursday. He received it in the regular mail-call that evening. The young Pierceton soldier was a machine gunner on an APC (All Personnel Carrier) at the time of his death. He was drafted into the army February 4, 1969, took his basic training at Fort Knox. He was home on a 14-day leave in June and left Fort Lewis Wash., for Viet Nam July 4. He attempted to enlist in the air force- before being drafted into the army, his par- ents said. Prior to his leave in June, Mr. and Mrs. Wallen had seen their son Ernie for only 20 minutes April 11, when they attended the graduation of the other son, Woodrow, who entered the serv- ice January 7, this year. Both brothers trained for basic at Fort Knox for three weeks. Woodrow arrived home for a 30- day-leave at 7:30 a.m. Friday, flying to Chicago, bus to South Bend and being picked up by friends in South Bend and re- turned to his home. Mr. and Mrs. Wallen although still grief stricken Friday after- noon, expressed appreciation at the consideration of army offi- cers who called on them. They said another army officer, Lieu- tenant James Virest, asked (and was accepted) if he could at- tend the funeral, although not as an escort. Receive Telegram The telegram from the United States army to Mr. and Mrs. Newton Wallen of Pierceton in- forming them of the death of their son was received at 5 p.m. Thursday, September 4, a little more than eight hours after the two officers from Fort Wayne had made the verbal announce- ment. The telegram read as follows: ‘The secretary of the army has asked me to express his deepest regret that on August 30 your son, Ernie Lee Wallen, was kill- ed in action in Viet Nam. He was on combat operation when supporting artillery fire, direct- ed at hostile forces, landed in the area.’ “Kenneth Wickham, Major Gen- eral, USA Fll, Adjutant Gen- eral, Department of the Army, Washington, D. C.” The Wallens were informed there would be another telegram to follow. It arrived about 3:15 p.m., Friday. This telegram of three page length told of the technical arrangements concern- ing the shipment of the body and the arrival time in Pierceton of 10 to 14 days.

The 1967 Pierceton High School Cross-Country Team showed how much pride really counts for, as they would not be beaten in their quest for their sixth straight County Championship. With half a mile to go, they trailed Syracuse, but with tremendous effort in the last half mile they passed their competitors to win by totaling ijJU points to the runner-up ' s 5k- Dana Cone was the usual top finisher, with Bob Osborn second, al- though Jim Faurote with a fine performance was our second finisher in the County Meet. Gary and Terry Hostetler were the fourth and fifth runners, with John Faurote and Bob Espinoza rounding out the top seven. Steve Reed, Andy Martinez, Max Menzie, Rick Coyle, and Dennis Mettler showed much improvement as the season progressed and will be counted on in the future. While losing such outstanding runners as Doug Gregory, Mike Miner, and Art Obregon from Pierceton ' s first Sectional Champions of 1965, the ' 66 team was able to win six out of eight dual meets. This, coupled with their thrilling victoxy in the County, made it another fine Cross- Country season for PHS.

The team then tasted defeat on two other occasions (larwill 10 to f and South Whitley 6 to 0) be- fore facing Sidney again. It was a different story this time around. The Cubs jumped off to a k to 0 lead, in a game played in cold, windy weather. Rager, the starting pitches experienced a sore arm, and Sidney began to chop away at the lead, and pulled ahead 6 to 5 in the bottom of the sixth to win. The starting nine included Bill Keener, Mitch Ousley, Jeff Rager, Roland Espinoza, Bill Kubaeka, Rex Werstler, Paul Carlin, Steve Taylor, and Di ' ck Carwile. Keener and Kubacki proved to be the heavy hitters, while Rager was the main-stay at the pitcher ' s mound. Ousley did a fine job in the difficult catcher ' s position. MACK ' S BULK STATION Pierceton Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening Whose woods these are I think I know. His house is in the village th ough; He will not see me stopping here To watch his woods fill up with snow. My little horse must think it queer To stop without a farmhouse near Between the woods and frozen lake The darkest evening of the year. He gives his harness bells a shake To ask if there is some mistake. The only other sounds the sweep Of easy wind and downy flake. The woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep. And miles to go before I sleep. And miles to go before I sleep. — Robert Frost — THESPIANS During the year Thespian members participated in many contests. Cheryl Lenwell, Marie Beery, and Clint Fletcher earned the right to compete in the Regional at Hammond High in March. The high- light of the year for the Club was the speech con- test held here at Pierceton High which was delayed several weeks because of the snowstorm in the area. Seven schools participated. The Thespian Club is continuing to grow and new talent is being discovered each year at contest time.

Junior High Cross Country The Pierceton Junior High Cross-Country season was rather abbreviated, including only two meets with Larwill and one with Churubusco. Led by Bill Keener and Jeff Rager, the Junior Cubs posted a decisive win over a visiting Larwill team. The Home course again proved to be good stamping ground as the Cubs enter- tained Churubusco and won their second victory. The final meet was run on unfamiliar turf, and the little Cubs were unable to overcome the same larwill team they had beaten just two weeks before. The final score found Larwill victorious.

Daffodils I wander ' d lonely as a cloud That floats on high o ' er vales and hills. When all at once I saw a crowd, A host of golden daffodils. Beside the lake, beneath the trees Fluttering and dancing in the breeze. Continuous as the stars that shine And twinkle on the milky way. They stretched in never-ending line Along the margin of a bay: Ten thousand saw I at a glance Tossing their heads in sprightly dance. The waves beside them danced, but they Out-did the sparkling waves in glee: A poet could not but be gay In such a jocund company I I gazed — and gazed — but little thought What wealth the show to me had brought. For oft, when on my couch I lie In vacant or in pensive mood. The flash upon that inward eye Which is the bliss of solitude; And then my heart with pleasure fills And dances with the daffodils. — William Wordsworth — VARSITY TRACK Row Is Max Menzie, Robert Espinoza, Tom Pletcher, Lew Kreger, Kent Cone, Gary Hostetler, Terry Hostetler, Pete Yorg, Mike Makemson.

They also won the county champion- ship making it 9 county championships consecutively. The team scored 1U points in the sectional and qualified 3 for the regional. Clint Pletcher, running the high hurdles in an out- standing time of 15.0 seconds, not only set a new school record, but also set a new county record. Barry Reed set a new school record in the low hurdles at 20.6 seconds. Jim Faurote set a new school record in the I4I4O yard dash at 52.0 seconds. Dana Cone, our top two mile runner, also set an all county record and new school record running the mile in 10:28.8. Junior Hi Track There was reason for enthusiasm among the Pierceton Junior High track members during the early weeks of the campaign as the Cubs trounced South Whitley 70-kh on the loser ' s track. The Cub thinlyclads were even more impressive against Talma with a 7 li -26 victory. Perhaps the old saying is true, You can ' t rest on your lau- rels, for Pierceton fell second to Larwill in a 3-way meet which also included Thorncreek. On their final outing before the County Track Meet, the junior Cubs were host to a strong Syracuse team, and dropped a close 53 -U 7 decision. Syracuse showed its prowess once again at the County Meet by taking top honors from defending champion Pierceton. The Yellowjackets rolled up I 4 A points to nip second place Larwill which scored a respectable Ul points. The Cubs fell behind during the trials, qualifying only h men for the final events and found themselves in a difficult situation. They were able to accumulate only 15 points and finished seventh in the County. Paul Carlin was the top scorer and performer for Pierceton throughout the season with a total of 67h points.

To begin with, three groups plus the Dance Band made it to the State Instrumental Contest held at Butler University in the winter. The Dance Band, a comet trio, a sax trio, and a comet solo all received second place medals at the State Contest. The full band performed at the District Contest held in April and a received a first rating which enabled them to participate in the State Contest held at Northfield. At that contest, the band received a second place rating. As in past years, the band played at the home basketball games, with the last game being used to honor the seniors of the band. A new edition to band activities this year was a Whitko Concert Tour. The combined bands from Larwill and Pierceton presented a program to the Pierceton student body and also the Larwill student body.
