Barbara Wolfeg Sponsor, Mr. Coppess. We had one class party during the school year at the school. Everyone enjoyed a fine time. The outstanding remembrance of the year was freshmen initiation.

The following officers were elected for that year: President, Jim Priceg Vice-President, Dorothy Myersg Secretary, Erma Fortneyg Treas- urer, Ben J ones, Sponsor, Mrs. Frances Frey.

Twenty-two members returned as Juniors intending to stick it out for the year. We lost Donna Allen, Bob Grim, Bill Sipe, Marvin Watkins, and Virginia Taylor. The class officers were chosen as follows: President, Dorothy Myersg Vice-President, Bill Workingerg Secretary, Ruth Gephart: Treasurer, Jim Freyg Sponsor, Mr. Coppess. We had two parties during the year. One at Hanna Nuttman Park and the other one at the school. We presented our class play, The Angel of Red Canyon , March l7, 1950. It was well received and appreciated. We all enjoyed our class trip with the Seniors to New York City, Niagara Falls, and Canada during the spring. We were kept very busy during the year selling Christmas Cards, magazines, and learning our class play. We all enjoyed a successful year. Dignified Seniors-that's us! Twenty-one of us returned to struggle for our goal - graduation. We lost one member, Betty Roebuck, who entered the army for Uncle Sam. After giving much thought to choosing our Senior class officers, we chose: Eleven President, Dorothy Myersg Vice-President, Marjory Millerg Secretary and Treasurer Erma Fortneyg Sponsor-Mr, Vizard, , We enjoyed one party at the school entertaining the freshmen. We thought it would be a good idea to Welcome them to good old P.M. H. S, We are looking forward to a class play and class trip during the spring. CXHJ5 Oelll If nobody smiled and nobody cheered and nobody helped us alongg If each, every minute looked after himself and the good things all Went to the strongg If nobody cared just a little for you, and nobody thought about me. And We stood all alone to the battle of life, what a dreary old world it would be! Life is sweet just because of the friends We have made and the things which in com- mon We shareg We Want to live on, not because of ourselves, but because of the people who care. It's giving and doing for somebody else-on that all life's splendor depends, And the joy of the world, when you've summed it all up, is found in the making of friends.

Thirteen Seniafz May 2, 1961 Dear Mr. Vizardz Joan and I just arrived home after a very interesting visit with our former class- mates, The Senior Class of 1951 of P. M. H. S. We thought maybe you would like to know what has happened to us during these ten short years. We all met at the Schnitz Restaurant, formerly The Pioneer in Decatur, Indiana. The restaurant is owned and operated by Mary Ohler and her husband, Al Schnitz. They have three little boys, who keep Mary very busy at home, The guests started arriving at 7 p.m. and among the first visitors were Barbara Wolfe and her fiance. Barbara is head of the mathematics and physics departments of the Pleasant Mills High School. She says that they have an enrollment of nine hundred students. While we were chatting with Barbara, Dorothy Myers, Gloria Merriman, and their beaus arrived. They both are living in Ft. Wayne where Dorothy is Superin- tendent of the Methodist Hospital and Gloria is in charge of the Merriman Music Center, formerly the Ft. Wayne Music Center. Mr. and Mrs. Waldo Salway, Ruth Gep- hart and her fiance came strutting in. Mrs. Salway, formerly Alice Musser and Ruthie own the International Harvester at Ft. Wayne. Alice's husband and Ruth's fiance are the head managers. They all were elaborately dressed, We were all happily surprised when Jim Price arrived. He now is the owner of Price's Dairy. He has decided to leave women alone, because they cause him too much interference. Jim told us that Ben Jones is now an Admiral in the Navy. We were all sorry that he couldn't attend our reunion. He is stationed in Japan and from what we hear, he is in love with a little Japanese girl. Annabelle and I were looking out a window when a taxi cab drove up. We immediately recognized the passengers as Jane Smith and Ellen Jones. They had come to Decatur by way of an airplane. Jane is an airline hostess with the T W A Airlines. Her main headquarters are in New York City where Ellen and she room together in the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel, El- len is the owner of a swank dress shop on Fifth Avenue. Erma Fortney didn't have far to come as she owns the Kroger Store in Decatur. Fourtagn 0 She hasn't found the man of her dreams, yet, but is still looking. Wava Fox and her husband came about tive minutes late. They explained that they had trouble finding a baby sitter. They have two darling baby girls, They live in Ft. Wayne and own the Ft. Wayne Co-Op Milk Plant. We heard a horn tooting and rushed to the door. There was a new Cadillac and it looked as though it was going to stop. When it finally slowed down, we could see that Paul Daniels was the driver. Jim Frey was along with him. They informed us that they are now the owners of the A Sz P Chain Stores. They leave the girls alone and for that reason they are extremely wealthy, A chauffeur helped Arlene Geisler and her fiance into the restaurant. They were heavily laden with packages. Arlene is the owner of Sac's Fifth Avenue Store in New York City. She brought each of us a nice souvenir. Her fiance is the manag- er. They are planning on getting married this June. We received special invitations to attend the ceremony, Herman Kelsey came next and alone. He owns the Salem Store and is engaged to a beautiful redhead. When asked where she was, he told us that she is sick in bed with the mumps. We were all sorry to hear the news. Mary Frey and Marjory Miller were the last arrivals. They are movie actresses in Hollywood, California. They are both mar- ried to actors, but their husbands were too busy to come. They brought a movie cam- era along and took pictures of the entire celebration. The movie will be called Happy Reunion and will be shown in all movie theaters next December. I suppose you know that Annabelle Be- bout and John Johnson are married. They own a beautiful 500 acre farm near Pleas- ant Mills. They now have a darling baby girl and a herd of Holsteins. It's now time for me to tell you about Joan Riley and Bill Workinger, our last two classmates. They are married and op- erate Workinger's Chevrolet Garage in Pleasant Mills. They also have twin boys who are very cute. This happens to be the end of our happy reunion, but we are looking forward to meeting again in 1971 in the Waldorf-As- toria Hotel in New York City. Sincerely, Annabelle and Joan. WI-IO'S WHO Who's the most argumentative? - Who's the most ambitious? - Who's the most excitable? Who's the most sociable? Who's the Tom Boy ? Who's the Southerner?

We visited Forbes Field, home of the Pittsburgh Pirates, and other points of interest, including libraries, universities, and colleges as we left the smoky city. We traveled on the Pennsylvania Turnpike, going through the Appalachian Mountains and seven tunnels, some of them more than a mile in length. We ate lunch in Gettys- burg, after which we visited many points of interest, including the famous Civil Wai' battlefield, the peace monument, and other famous monuments and statues, represent- ing both the Confederate and Union Armies. Later in the afternoon we visited Yalley Forge, where we saw the former home of Washington and went inside a chapel dedicated to General Washington by Dr. Burke. We arrived in Philadelphia to stay at the Sylvania Hotel where we repeated our experiences of the previous night. On the bright Sunday morning of April 16, 1950, the Junior and Seniors of Pleasant Mills assembled in front of the school to begin a wondrous trip of seven states and Can- ada. After farewells were said, baggage installed, and everyone seated in the bus that Miller's Tours provided, we were on our way. We traveled through Ohio and ate din- ner in Mansfield, Ohio, and in the afternoon we visited the McKinley Monument in Can- ton, Ohio. We touched West Virginia while traveling to Pittsburgh. We arrived in Pittsburgh about 6:30 p.m. to stay at the Pittsburgher Hotel. Since staying in a hotel was a new experience for most of us, we immediately explored each other's rooms. That evening some went to a show, while others went sightseeing. Tuesday morning as we left Philadelphia we visited Convention Hall, the historic site of the signing of the Declaration of Independence as well as the home of the Liber- ty Bell. We saw Benjamin Franklin's grave and the home of Betsy Ross. We traveled through New Jersey and by early afternoon we went under the Hudson River through the Holland Tunnel to New York City. Immediately we boarded a sightseeing boat and took a three hour cruise around Manhattan Island. We saw Yankee Stadium, The Polo Grounds, Statue of Liberty, George Washington Bridge, Brooklyn Bridge, Manhattan Bridge, Naval Yards, and many ocean liners, after which we traveled up town to the Ho- tel Shelton. We spent the evening sightseeing New York's wonderful sights. Most of us attended Radio City Music Hall. Wednesday we took a glass top bus tour of the city and saw China Town, The Bow- ery, Rockefeller Center, Madison Square Garden, Times Square, Wall Street, The Little Church Around the Corner, and other places of interest. We went to the top of the 102 story Empire State Building and viewed the city. As we had the afternoon free, most of us visited St. Patrick's Cathedral, Macy's, Sac's Fifth Avenue Store, and various other sights. That evening we visited Times Square, Brooklyn, rode the subways, and various other things. Thursday morning we had cause for anxiety when three of the girls failed to appear at 7 o'clock. Mary, Alice, and Ruth had overslept. That morning we visited Columbia University, Grant's Tomb, and Riverside Church. We went inside St. John the Divine Cathedral, the largest in the world. We visited West Point Military Academy in the afternoon. That evening we stayed at Mark Twain Hotel in Elmira, New York. Friday while traveling to Niagara Falls, we passed Seneca Lake and other points of interest. We viewed the Falls from the American side and then crossed the Rainbow Bridge into Canada and viewed the Falls from the Canadian side. All were properly impressed by this majestic wonder. After traveling on the King's Highway, we spent the night at the London Hotel, London, Ontario, Saturday we left Canada and crossed into the United States over the Ambassor Bridge into Detroit. Some of us exchanged the Canadian money we had acquired for United States money. We traveled through Ohio. We had our last lunch together at Maumee, Ohio. We arrived in good old P.M.H.S, at 2.30 p.m, Everyone was very tired and glad to be home again but enriched from the wonderful experiences of our trip.

He has been an exceptionally good ball player in high school and will be a great loss to the Spartans. Jim was highly hon- ored at the County Tournament by receiving the Good-Sportsmanship Trophy. He was also awarded the most valuable player trophy which was presented by the school. In addition to the above awards he also won the trophy given to the player making the high- est percentage of free-throws during the season. Jim averaged 62 per cent making 88 out of 142. In addition to the above honors Jim and Bill Workinger were chosen co- captains. Bill Workinger playing his third year as a varsity player was very valuable. This six foot, one and one-half inch center started every game this year. Bill using his height tremendously playing his best game against Adams Central in the County Tournament. Bill is a great rebounder and Coach Vizard will have a tough time replacing him. Forty-two Don Crow Suman playing his first year on the varsity squad is a very fine scorer and play maker. Don was usually called on when there was pressure and usually came through. Don being a Sophomore, will be a great asset to the Spartans in the years to come. Lester Painter, one of the outstanding Sophomores on the varsity has come along fast after a slow start and played his best games in the County Tournament where he played every minute. Lester excels on defense and is usually called on to hold the op- posing team's leading scorer. Coach Vizard is counting heartily on Smoocher for next season, Bill Johnson a fine rebounding Junior f orward, played his second year on the var- sity squad. Bill is six feet, one inch tall and a very fine ball player. He was a consistent cool-headed player and proved his scoring ability on several occasions. Much will be ex- pected from Bill next year. Jack Raudenbush is a five foot, nine inch alternating forward and guard. Jack is a hard driving Junior. He played his best game in the County Tourney scoring 17 points. Jack is a fine rebounder and scorer. He will be back hitting for the Spartans next year. Lee Flash Edwards played most of the year on the second team, and as a reserve on the first team. Lee has been a valuable assistant to the Pleasant Mills ball club, Lee will be back fighting for the Spartans next year. Bob Noll is playing his first year on the varsity squad, He has made the best of every chance he has had. Bob should round out a very good team next year. Bud Case, a Sophomore, pivot, is playing his first year on the varsity squad. Bud is a very good scorer and a rebounder. Much will be expected from him next year. John 'tMousey King, a reserve forward, didn't get very many chances to play this year but has taken advantage of every chance. He gained valuable experience play- ing on the second team. We will be watching Mousey next year. BASKETBALL SCORES Pleasant Mills Commodores . , .... . Pleasant Mills Bryant ,. . .. Pleasant Mills Wren .......
