FUTURE TEACHERS ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA VAN BUREN ELM CLUB The F. T. A. is associated with the Indiana State Teachers Asso- ciation and the National Education Association. In high school F. T. A. groups are called clubs, college groups are chapters. The purpose of the F. T. A. is exploratory, pre-vocational, and char- acter-forming. The F. T. A. program is an evaluating one, each club will grow according to the effort of its members. F. T. A. merit points are awarded for achievement. A merit point.is earned by an hour's worx on an F. T. A. project. These merit points may be added to those earned in college. The Future Teacher's Pledge says the good teacher requires: Physical vitality, mental vigor, moral discrimination, wholesome personality, help- fulness, knowledge and leadership. These things will I do now that I may be worthy of the high office of teacher! This is the first of such clubs at Plainfield and although it has been in existence a short time the F. T. A. is proving to be a very active and worthwhile organization. 33 735 a 2, K ,fad f+ei1??Li 5 M M I , .L 4 , . 1 K as 4 ' l ,f K? 1 .

Our first grade teachers were Mabel Ellis and Mabel Boone. The remaining grad- uating members are Roger Castetter, Donald Groninger, Richard Hall, Geraldine Joh son, Marilyn Johnson, Donald Kennedy, Nancy Koho, Rollis Lon, Glen Miles, Janzt Moon Patsy Newlin Ri h d P' ' ' 1 , c ar zerce, Jerry Pike, Jane Shrake, David Spencer, Marsha Stedman, and Jim Tague. During the second grade we gained Joan Lewellen, Marjolane Kellam, James Copeland, and David Owens. Bob Bare enrolled but withdrew during the 6th and 7th grades. Jon Reeves was with us all through except the fourth grade. W The end of the third year found us, plus Marilyn Burns, Bob Durell, and James ard. Marlene Hedrick and Sheldon Houston entered during the fourth grade. David Weddle joined us during the fifth grade. In the sixth grade half of the class was moved to Junior High School. Doris Ford and Barbara Whitaker were enrolled. The seventh grade found us all together again and Ruth Craig honored us by be- ing our sponsor through Junior High. Thomas Calbert, Martha Hayden, Marlene Turner and Sharon Lynch joined our ranks in the eighth grade. We were looking for- ward eagerly to the coming four years. August 28, 1950, we found ourselves at the portals of frolic, learning, and trying not to be too hard on the teachers. As our officers we chose: Jerry Curtis, presidentg Bob Durell, vice-presidentg Dick Hall, secretary, and David Spencer, treasurer. Mr. Albright was appointed our sponsor. The freshmen G.A.A. members sponsored a square dance and made a big suc- cess of the project. Our freshmen football team earned high praise and recognition. Our freshmen basketball team carried home the Mid-State Conference Basketball Tourney Trophy. Marlene Turner and Sharon Lynch were cheerleaders. Bill Kniesly and James Masten entered -the class as freshmen. Our sophomore officers were Janet Moon, presidentg Jim Ward, vice-presidentg Nancy Koho, secretary, and Judy Tipps, treasurer. We sponsored the movie, Satur- day's Hero , and Jane Shrake was Football Homecoming Queen. Loretta Holzknecht joined us this year. In the junior year our class officers were: Roger Castetter, president: Barbara Whitaker, vice-presidentg Jane Shrake, secretary, and Patsy Newlin, treasurer. New members were Neil Alexander and Patsy Poe. Early in the year we ordered our class rings and pins and sold magazine sub- scriptions. We presented our junior play, Down to Earth . The rest of the year we kept busy with money-making schemes. We sold concessions during the noon hour and at all home basketball and football games. Barbara Whitaker was Homecoming Queen for football. Of course, all this work was leading to the annual Junior-Senior Reception which took place May 15, 1953, in the Marble Room of the Marott Hotel. With this grand affair we concluded the activities of our junior year and looked eagerly forward to our big year as seniors. Roger Castetter, presidentg Don Groninger, vice-presidentg Patsy Newlin, secre- tary, and David Spencer, treasurer, were chosen for the class officers our senior year. New members with us were Shirley Liston, Martha Pratt, and Judith Worrell. 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. Janet Moon and Barbara Whitaker were appointed as Editor and Co-Editor, respectively, for the annual, which was named THE PLAINSMEN. We voted, on condition, to dedicate the annual to our sponsor, Mr. Albright, in a small effort to show our appreciation for all he has done for us during our high school days. We gave our play at the first of the year. Mrs. Betty Niles, did a superb job of directing Hillbilly Weddin' . During the holiday season we sponsored a Mid-State Conference Dance at the Public Service Auditorium, which was a carry-over from each conference school's Homecoming. Then, ending procedures began. The P.T.A. honored us at one of their meetings. A reception was given us by the junior class at the Skyland Lodge in Spencer on May 14. The baccalaureate service, May 16, was held with the Rev. S. F. Cook delivering the message. Classnight was held May 18, when the members received their due awards. Commencement was the following Thursday night, May 20. The President of Ball State Teacher's College, John R. Emmens, delivered the message. Our goal attained, and our diplomas in our possession, we were made Alumni on Saturday evening, May 22. At two o'clock Sunday, May 23, we set out on our trip. We visited Valley Forge, New York City, Niagara Falls, and Detroit. l We are very proud of our class and the many activities in which we have partici- pated while in high school. We have had many active members and officers in all of the clubs. We have taken part in band and chorus and have had many outstanding students in both fields. We are proud of our classmates who have participated in all types of athletics while in high school. Truly, we're proud to say, We're the Class of 1954! CLASS PROPHECY Dear John: I hear the class of '54 of Plainfield High School is having a reunion. From what I hear they're going to have it at the famous Plainfield Athletic Club 0Wf10d, Of Course, by Crosscorner Castetter. As everyone knows Mr. Cas- tetter also owns Beano's Place , formerly the C8aE Drugs. One of the class- members attending has just returned from a world hot-rod tour in his famous Pink Lady. We're talking about Hot Petunia Long. All of the other members have gone out on their own and are living very successful lives. Neil Alexander heard the call of Go west young man, go west , so he went NORTH. We heard that Bob Bare is head custodian at Indiana Boys School and that Joan Lewellen is now district manager of Kro- gers. Also somebody said that they had seen Tom Calbert in a hardware store the other day still looking for a left-handed paint brush and some striped pain . Jim Copeland just bought out the Plainfield Block factory, fell in a vat of cement and they're still chipping him out of it. I heard that Bob Durell was very happy over his promotion to chief engi- neer of rockets at the Easy-Pop-O Firecracker Company. Don Groninger is water boy 1n chief of the Cartersburg Creeps. He's too small to play football :afraid he'd get hurt. Boretta Holzknecht is starting fullback for the gallant reeps. Dick Hall is the nation's worst orthopedics doctor and married inmate Sharon Lynch, Central No. 0000.6. The ceremony took place in Cell 17. Bob Harvey is chief barker for the Bunglung sisters Circus. Also starring in the circus is Nancy Koho and Her Flying Fleas. Marlene Hedrick has become world-famous as Studebaker's grease-monkey. David Dillinger Owen and Sheldon Capone Houston are still terrifying the south side of Belleville by soaping windows. Marjolane Kellam also heard the call for Go west, young man, go west , but as a woman would she went too far west and fell in the Pacific Ocean. Don Kennedy owns a Wrecker service that specializes in pushing 1939 Olds- mobiles. Jim Masten has attained his long awaited goal as Fire Chief of the metropolis of Plainfield. Glen Miles is in his eighth year as President of Vassar College and Janet Moon is chief chimney sweeper for her father's furnace business. Jim Ward is working El Rocko Rocket Plant putting turn signals, mud flaps and rear View mirrors on space ships. Bill Kniesly is leading the revo- lution between the North Ubangis and the South Ubangis in Argentina. Dick Pierce is a die-hard. He failed to get his flying license so he spends his time jumping out of trees with uumbrellas and throwing rocks at air- planes. Bill Plunkett is still working at the Prewitt Theater as a midget walk- ing under the seats and picking up paper. Jim Tague is still playing the field with his dates, He has a babe lined up in Belgian Congo for Saturday night. David Spencer, that famous Romeo, finally made a world hit by crack- ing a smile in his latest movie, The Mad Lover . Marilyn Burns has just starred in her latest movie, f'Sister of Lassie. Art Snodgrass was voted the nations hog-caller most likely to succeed and Martha Hayden just won the National Spit-toon Spitters Championship. It was the third straight year that Miss Hayden took home the crown. Jerry Lou Johnson just bought the Triple R Bar Running Rat Ranch in Raccoon County on the Red River. Doris Ford has the world re-nowned job of putting the curl in pigtails and pig's tails. Marilyn Johnson has been named the champion cigar-smoker of Lower and Upper Slabovia. Barbara Whitaker is still working at her life's ambition of rubbing spots off the leopards. Jerry Pike is well satisfied with his new job as overlooker of the Empire State Building. David Weddle has joined the Foreign Legion as a carpenter and is in charge of contracting outhouses in the Sahara Desert. Marlene Turner is chief test-pilot for witches-brooms and also has perfected radar for her own personalbroonr Bobbi Porter has returned to the Union fNorthern Gasburgl because the authorities found her whiskey still in operation in Southern Gasburg. Patsy Poe married a twelve foot giant and settled down. John Reeves just won the 500 mile race in his super-charged Crosley V-2. Martha Pratt is now making a success growing African Violets in South Am- erica while her dear friend, Judy Worrell, is a pansy grower in Northwestern Antiartica. Jane Shrake and her husband are now the world's champion tag-team wrestlers, while Marsha Stedman manufactures hose for bow-legged women. Shirley Liston is now Mayor of Brazil and last but not least is Patsy Newlin. Poor Pat is still a student at P.H.S.---reason she's never recieved her diploma because she hasn't paid her Freshman Class dues.
