GRADE SCHOOL The old school house is altered some, the benches are replaced By new ones, very like the same our jark-knives had defafed. But the same old bricks are in Ihe wall and the bell swings to and fro Its music's jus! the same, dear friends, 'lwas twelve short yeafs ago. JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL Sufeess is failure turned inside out- The silver tint of the clouds of doubt- And you never can tell how close you are, It may be near when it seems afar. 5 SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL Il's .s'l1'1lgglif1g on will: the will to win lin!

Who would ever believe that that group was the present junior class of Plainfield High School? Although some of the original members no longer are in the group, others have been added: and all have proved their loyalty to the class. Mrs. Dalta Hodson greeted the class as its sponsor in the freshman year. jane Rosch was elected president, Bob Koho, vice-presidentg jean Houston, secretary: and Roy Long, treas- urer. During the sophomore and junior years, the class sponsored the Dixie Four Qua-rtette as a money making project. The sophomore class officers were Bob Koho, presidentg jim john- son, vice-president: jean Houston, secretary: and Bob Cline, treasurer. The junior year held the bright prospect of selling refreshments at noon and of conduct- ing the magazine sale, both regular projects of the juniors. To add interest, two teams, the Martins and the Cols, were chosen. The Martins, led by Patty Downs, won. As head of the class its junior year, Peggy Buell presided as the big chief, Barbara Reeves took the minutesg jim Raber added the figures and Tom Delashmit headed all committees. The class rings arrived in time to be Christmas presents and the owners are still proudly displaying them. Contributing their bit to school activities, the class had members in the Honor Society, Sunshine Society: F.F.A., F.H.A., 4H clubs, and the Parliamentary Club. junior boys were prominent in athletics. Koho and Delashmit played on the basketball and football teams, and jim johnson also was a member of the football squad. Dramatic ability was exhibited in the junior production, Relatives By Affection, which was under direction of Miss Stuart and Mrs. Osborn, November 6. A reception at the Washington Hotel May 6, honoring the seniors, completed a successful junior year. It is with eagerness that the class awaits another year with determination to dis- charge successfully added responsibities as well as to enjoy the pleasures it will bring. 20 First Row Cleft to rightj Imogene Skinner, Peggy Pratt, Harold Dugger, jane Newlin, Myra Price, joan Emblen, Carl White.

S0jDk0l7ZOI'6 i6l55 The sophomore class of Plainfield High School is proud of its small but industrious class of thirty-two members. At the beginning of the school year, we elected the following class officers: president, john Martin: vice-president, Barbara jenkinsg secretary, Tom Hilligossg and treasurer, Conrad Stephens. Our motto, Find a path or make one, is typical of our attitude, as an observer can plain' ly see that our paths through Plainheld High School are already well charted. Our Colors, green and white, symbols of freshness and vitality, portray the character of almost all of our classmates. This class has representatives in all but three of the extracurricular organizations of the school. The Art Club, Sunshine Society, Hobby Club, Dramatic Club, Future Farmers, Future Homemakers, 4-H, Student Council, band, chorus, and the newly-formed orchestra all have sophomores as active members. Our pantomimes, Rosie O'Crady's Fate and The Lamp Went Out, which were pre- sented as convocation programs. were entertaining to the student bodyg and their presentation displayed the initiative and the ability of the class.

They were young, but they were many, and they soon had taken their places among the student body. At the first class meeting, officers were elected to lead them dur- ing their first year of high school life. The officers were as follows: president, Tom Myers: vice- president, Norval Reeceg secretary, john Aikeng Treasurer, joe Case. Mr. Lowell Cox was named sponsor of this group. At the beginning of the year, they proved their musical ability by contributing worth- while talents to both band and chorus. Three of their members-Eileen McNelly, Phyllis and janet Murphy-were chosen drum majorettes. This class has been especially outstanding in the field of athletics. It not only had many players on the second team, but it also had a very capable freshman team, which won the Freshmen Mid-State Conference tourney lw tlcfeating Speedway, Mooresville, and Decatur Central. Two of the freshman girls, jean May and Barbara Trent, were elected cheer leaders for the high school team. Considering the progress of the group during their hrst year, a successful high school ca- reer is predicted for the class of 1952. 22 EIGHTH GRADE CLASS First Row llc-ft to rightj Margaret Peck. jimmy johnson.

Its origin and root is a definite part of the school curriculum-vocational agriculture. It serves to motivate and vitalize the systematic instruction offered to students of Plainfield High School, to develop character, leadership, and citizenshipg to develop qualities of service, co- operation, thrift and sportsmanship: to sponsor wholesome recreation and to lead to improved agriculture. Activities of the Plainfield Chapter are annually planned and accomplished by its mem- bers. The chapter has distinguished itself in District, State, and National affairs. This year, Ralph Smith, one of its oldest members, is sewing as State Presidentg he represented Indiana as a delegate to the 1948 National Convention and served as chairman of the National F.F.A. committee. During the last State Convention awards came to the chapter by winning the State Treasurers' Book Contest, by placing in the State News Letter Contest, the Secretaries' Book Contest, and the Reporters' Scrapbook Contest. One of its members represented Indiana on the R.F.D. America program, originating from studios in Chicago, Illinois. 27 Kneeling fleft to rightl Shirley Stephenson, Phyllis Murphy, Alice Daum, Wilma Skirvin, Eileen McNelly, janet Nlurphy.

Kim Band and rcfzesfra The Plainfield High School Band was first organized in the year 1921. This organization, under the direction of Claire Sellars, had approximately fifteen members. ln this year, Mr. Drake took over the responsibilities and difliculties of cultivating the talent to produce music. As the years passed and membership of the the band increased, the first uniforms were purchased. These were blue caps and blue capes lined in red, with which were worn white pants or skirts. In l942 the purchase of the present blue and gold uniforms was made possi- ble by the aid of interested patrons of the community. This year the band had forty-eight members, including five majorettes. The activities were drilling for basketball and football games, entertaining the P.T.A., attending the district contest, and playing for commencement. Sometimes other occasions arose when its services were neededg however these were the main events. For several years the parents of band members have given a banquet honoring the mem- bers of this group. At this occasion gifts or band pins are given to the graduating members. At the beginning of the second semester, Mr. Drake organized an orchestra, which is the first P.H.S. has had in several years. W'ith a will and a desire much can be accomplished by both of these musical groups. 28 First Row: Nida Peck, jean Snepp, Lois Weddle, jean May, Shirley Stephenson.

The freshmen compose one chorus, and the sophomores, juniors, and seniors, the other. This division has been made because of the large class enrolled and a conflict in the schedules of many of the students, however this arrangement was for the first se- mester only. f Mrs. Lucas, director, has completed her third year at Plainfield. She is a graduate of Indi- ana State Teachers College and came to Plainfield from jasonville. Dean Beck has assisted her with the freshman chorus, and jim Durell has acted as assistant for the other group. The activities of the chorus are attending the district contest, singing for baccalaureate, participating in the annual Christmas pageant, and entertaining the P.T.A. The members usu- ally appear for chapel at the Indiana- Boys School once a year. The chorus has no robesg however. they make a very neat appearance, the boys in suits and white shirts and the girls in black skirts and white blouses. The chorus meets twice a week, and it has been Mrs. Lucas' aim to encourage more special numbers-including solos, 'duets, and quartets. Plainfield sent three entries to a talent show at New Winchester this year, one of which, a boys' quartet, won second place. Also a double quartet, from our chorus, went to Danville and performed for Teachers' Institute. There are twenty-one graduating members this year, including the two pianists, Betty jo Spencer and Delores Ellis. This loss will undoubtedly affect, but not hinder, the progress of the group. 29 THE SUNSHINE SOCIETY l-'irst Row qlett to rightp Sarah jane Springer. jean May, joan Emblen. joan jones.

Our first grade class numbered sixty and our teachers were Miss Mary Elizabeth Raper and Miss Mabel Scales. Dean Beck, james Bridges, Marjorie Friel, Barbara Layman, Carla Owens, Delores Ellis, jerry Cox, Harry Park, Morey Gladden, jane jared, Arlene Rothrock, Darlene Adams, Shir- ley Stephenson, jean Snepp, Peggy Thompson, Joan jones and Susie Spear are the remaining graduating members of this original class. ln 1943, as seventh graders, we entered junior High School. The outstanding activity of this year was a bond drive during which the junior High School students bought enough War Savings Stamps to purchase an Army jeep, which was delivered to the school by Army officials from Stout Field and presented during an inspira- tional and timely program in keeping with the war effort. The main highlight of our eighth grade year, under the sponsorship of Mrs. Ruth Craig and Mr. Kenneth Norris, was the farewell party, which we gave the freshmen who were leavf ing junior High. ln 1945, although we were freshmen, we still still remained in the junior High building. Our officers this year were: president, jack Xvoodp vice-president, Alice jones, secretary, jean Snepp, and treasurer, jerry Cox. Our sponsor was Mr. Robert Baitz. The most memorable event of this year was trip to McCormick's Creek State Park, given to us as a farewell gift by the eighth graders. Finally in 1946, as sophomores, we arrived at the Senior High School. Our first activity was, of course, election of class officers. They were: president, Larry Hayden, vice-president, jerry Coxg secretary, Carla Owensg and treasurer, Betty Spencer. Mr. Howard Pike was chosen class sponsor. After the first few days of confusion, the class quickly adjusted itself to the new routine and established itself as an important part of life at P.H.S. In the junior year our class officers werer president, Jean Snepp, vice-president, Peggy Thompson: secretary, joan jones: and treasurer, Morey Gladden. Early in the year we ordered our class rings and pins, sold magazine subscriptions, and presented our junior play, We Shook the Family Tree. The rest of the year we kept busy with our money-making schemes. We sold ice cream during the noon hour, and managed to make quite a large sum of money from the sale of concessions at all home ball games. Of course, all this work was leading to the annual Junior-Senior Reception which took place May 7, 1948, in the Gold Room of the Marott Hotel. With this grand affair we con- cluded the activities of our junior year and looked eagerly forward to our big year as seniors. jack Wood, presidentg jim Durell, vice-president, Joyce Fleck, secretary, and Morey Glad- den, treasurer, were chosen for the class officers this year. Since we had decided to publish an annual we immediately settled down to work by choosing Porter's National Studio as photographers for the annual and also for our senior pictures. Mary Pepper and Alice jones were selected as Editor and Co-Editor, respectively, for the annual, which after much discussion was renamed THE PLAINSMEN. All too soon came the first of the end-of-the year activities with the presentation of our class play, One Foot In Heaven, April 22. This was followed May 6, 'by the Junior-Senior Reception in the Gold Room and the Chinese Room of the Hotel Washington. The final reward for our work and contribution as students in the Plainfield School was the baccalaureate service May 14, with the Rev. Albert L. Copeland fContinued on page 445 40 GLB Gldif gjl' Weary from the toil and worry of our Hnal exams and the nervous strain of graduation week, l had settled down comfortably in a big easy chair for a quiet evening at home with my library book. Before I had scarcely begun reading, I heard a faint tapping noise at the door. There was a short silence, followed by another tapping sound, the same as before. Thinking it was one of my friends, I rushed to open the door. To my surprise, no one was there-instead a small, neatly wrapped parcel. I opened it eagerly and lifted the contents, a tlaintily carved lamp. As I stroked the smooth silver surface in admiration, suddenly a blue haze appeared and took form-a genie! He bowed humbly and said, I am your servant. You may have three wishes which I will grant. Quite astonished at this sudden event, I hesitated momentarily: then said, Genie, please take me to the Land .of the Future. The genie, bowing low, replied, Granted, Master. The next thing I knew, I found myself before a magnificent marble pedestal on which lay a velvet bound book entitled Calendar of Time. The title of chapter one was Class of Forty-nine, in the Year of Nineteen Hundred and Fifty-nine. When I saw that the future of each member of the class was written on those pages, I read on eagerly. Larry Hayden is now a Senator in Congress and is well known for his ability to filibuster for hours against most bills which are presented before the Senate. Mrs. jane Hayden, the former Jane jared, spends most of her time going to luncheons and serving tea for the other grand ladies in Washington. However, I'll bet she secretly wishes she were in her dream house, a little rose-covered cottage in Plainfield. Dean Back, president of a large production plant out in California, has a new product on the market called Sudsy-Wudsy Soap-guaranteed not to remove dirt. This he invented for little boys whose mothers insist that they wash behind their ears. Bill Lambert is the featured trumpet player in Harry james' orchestra. He is popularly known as Hot Lips Lambert. He readily confesses that it was Mr. Drake who inspired him. Morey Gladden is well satisfied with his position as an agricultural professor at Purdue University. Betty .Io Spencer has achieved great fame as a concert pianist since she won the national annual contest on the Horace Heidt show. As a reward she was granted a non-expiring movie contract with M-G-M. Melvin Swager, who has been rated the most outstanding football player of Notre Dame since johnny Lujack, is quite a figure on the the sports page. Toots LaVerne, better known as Mary Pepper, has finally fulfilled her ambition. She is the starred dancer in a burlesque show in New York. Alas and alack, our bashful senior boy, jerry Cox, is now a brave, bold man. Since he joined the Navy, he has sailed the seven seas and has not one, but many girls in every port. Susie Spear has become the editor of The Indianapolis Times, however she has changed the name of the paper to The Spear Gazette. jim Durell has slowly climbed the ladder to success. He has been promoted to copy boy in Susie's oliice. Fame and fortune, what more could one want? Wanda Andrews has married a famous millionaire and is now living in the heig-ht of luxury on a large estate in Amitydale. joyce Fleck has become the head nurse at the Medical Center. However, Joyce decided that since she had always had an artistic flare, she would take up sugery. What grace, what talent! The girls who used to commend jimmy Bridges on his danc- ing helped him to decide his career. He is now a dancing instructor at the Arthur Murray Studio. A new drugstore has been established in Plainfield. It is called the Martin, Owens 8: Friel Pharmacy. Marilyn, Carla and Marjorie decided that the teen-agers needed special privileges: so they charge only a nickle for whatever the high school' kids order at the fountain. People have been rushing to their nearest bookstore to get the new best seller, entitled, Flaming Youth, . by Barbara Layman. She used her diary as the source for her plot. The Walt Disney pictures are greater box oHice hits since'Walt has a new assistant. who is none other than Shirley Stephenson. fContinued on,next page, 41 GLB GMS! QD?

Charles Dugger, who was so interested in how they got all of the Indians on an Indian reservation. has been appointed Big Chief of the Navajo tribes. Mr. Cox was very much pleased with the new economics book which Jim Maners wrote for him entitled, Theoretically Speaking. Monrovia's population has been increased by one per cent, namely Lois Cummings. She said that the doctor ordered a change of climate for her health. I wonder if any of you recognize the new actress, Joyce Glamour, who is starred in the reproduction of an old show called, Gone With the Wind. Her real name is Joyce Shelley. lt's really amazing what ten years will do for some people. The two former funeral homes of Plainfield have been run out of business by an up-and-coming mortician, Harry Park. Delores Ellis is secretary to a large firm in Indianapolis, but she has almost lost her job several times. The reason? She translated all of her shorthand notes in German. This was because she had so many foreign pen pals while she was a senior. Don Clingerman is a big man in baseball. He now pitches for the Indianapolis Indians. Life was never dull for Betty Hinshaw. She and her husband are now happily married and have a small business on the side here in Plainfield. They deal in used cars, especially Lin- colns and Mercurys. His Honor, Ronald Trent, Mayor of Indianapolis, is very grateful to Gloria Groninger, his campaign manager, for enabling him to be elected on the Socialist ticket. Harry Phillips is now living ncxt door to an old maids' rest home. He claims his resi- dence there was due to the housing shortage. june Price is a happy housewife. She was recently voted The Best Homemaker of l959. Beverly Potts, believe it or not, is the president of a matrimonial correspondence club. Her assistant was Margaret Collier, but she resigned at the age of twenty-one to marry a club mem- ber who lived at Mooresville. The employment agency sent Darlene Adams, a business school graduate, to Beverly to replace Margaret Ann. Dorothy Dix has nothing on Peggy Thompson and her new lovelorn column. By advising perplexed freshies in high school, she has achieved many new theories on this subject. Peggy can do her work much more efficiently since she hired joan jones as her corresponding sec- retary and advertising manager. Alice Jones having won a huge sum of money in an oratorical contest, has traveled abroad to many foreign countries. At present she is staying in Siam with her male harem. Mava Price, famous for her trick riding, is making a personal appearance with the Roy Rogers' Rodeo at Madison Square Garden. Our senior lovebirds, jack Wood and Arlene Rothrock, have become lifetime partners. They have settled down on a dairy farm southwest of Plainfield. As I closed the book, the genie reappeared and asked, Master, what are your remaining wishes? Genie, 'I said, take me back to the Land of Todayg then third and most important, I wish for every member of the Class of '49, happiness, wealth, and health always. eifif 42 Cfze Bas! and gesfanzerzf We, the Senior Class of 1949, of the Town of Plainfield, County of Hendricks, and State of Indiana, being of what we hesitate to call a sound mind, however, since no former examina- tions have proved otherwise, do hereby ordain and declare this to be, our Last Will and Testa- ment, thereby making any other wills previously published null and voidr ARTICLE I To the faculty with whom we have been unduly liberal, we, the Senior Class do will and bequeath all the wrong answers from our old exams, all unfinished homework, all notes which they may find, all forgotten excuse blanks, and last, but most important, peace at our departure.

Betty Spencer and Delores Ellis were piano accompanists for the chorus, and Bill Lambert was trumpet soloist at many school and social function.

The Spences are quite shocked when they discover that the parsonage is a run-down, dilapidated, little house which looks as if it had been abandoned by the County Poor Farm: however, it doesn't take long for mother to make the parsonage into an attractive home. Hartzell, a rather homely, gawky kid, with whiskbroom hair, has a genius for getting into trouble-like the time he unknowingly gives away a box of old clothes, containing the church collection, to a tramp, and the time when he is put in jail for throwing a brick through a store window. Eileen's fight against prejudice and the bickering between the church members are only a few of father's many grievances. One Foot In Heaven is a play which affords the audience with an evening of enter- tainment and many delightful surprises. Cast of Characters Reverend William H. Spence, a minister ......

D elores Morrison The story begins when Shirley Evans writes a literary masterpiece of twenty words, which wins a six month's trip to the Orient. While there she gets mixed up with the war, and Ho XfVang saves her life and is wounded in the process. In other words, Shirley's life belongs to Ho Wang. The Yens come to America because Ho Wang is lecturing in this country. It is only natural that they stay at the Evans' while in America. The Yens want Ho Wang to marry Shirley because he saved her life. This leads to many upset love affairs of both the Evans and Yen families. Complications arise between mem- bers of both families and servants, before a family council is called. Romances sprout like mushrooms: Hobart, the butler, and Emma, the cook, confess a fondness for each otherg and Sing, the No. One boy, and Bird's Nest, the twittering Chinese maid, provide delightful sur- prises. Events take a surprising turn when Generalissimo Chiang Kai-Shek's wife is held up as an example of modern Chinese womanhood and the women-both Chinese and American- begin to assert themselves in straightening out affairs-to the relief of the men. 46 'tcm Shook flze gem! y green From the Book by Hildegarde Dolson JUNIOR CLASS PLAY, 1947 Xlrs. llolson is moved by Hildegarde's fear that if she misses the prom for lack of a date, it's the beginning of the end. However, she has a plan to get her daughter a date with a perfectly nice boy, but she will not tell her who the lad is. ln ecstacy Hildegarde lays it on thick to the more popular girls who have lorded it over her. Poor Hildegarde, how mould she know that her mother had picked Freddie Shermer, the only boy in school who wears knickers. Nleanwhile, Hildegarde, in a debate against drinking, has only convinced people that her father must be a terrible drunkard. These wild stories almost cause Mr. Dilson to be fired by Mr. Shermer, Freddie's father. The plot becomes more entangled now as Hilde- garde becomes the laughing stock of the school because of Freddie. Then to top it off, Mr. lJolson's old love letters to his wife get distributed to all of the neighbors quite by mis- take. In at hilarious climax an-d a whrilwind finish, a happy solution is reached that solves the problems ol all. Cast of Charcters Hiltlegarde. tiretl of being zi wzillflower ....
