Of the class starting in Plymouth Grade School under the loving and capable care of Miss Stella Nye only twelve survive the graduation in Plymouth High School. They are: Donald Bettac, Betty Briggs. Lucille Carrick, Thelma Caywood, Gene Cornell, David Dick, Gertrude Echelbarger, Margaret Gowitzka, George Hough, Harlow Ken- dig, Kathleen Martin, and Marian Ruth Nimmons. In September, 1928, eager and excited because we thought ourselves quite big and were very proud to think we were in the second grade under the able guidance of Miss Maxine Hartsel. The next year opened with a Hbangv. We were sorry to see that George Hough hadn't re- turned for the third grade with us but were too excited over going upstairs under the supervision of Miss Mary Sheely to think much about it. In 1930 we started in under the very ellicient teaching of Miss Florence Danner and were glad to welcome LeRoy Ellison to our class not dream- ing that he was soon to be one of our star basket ball players. In 1931 we advanced even farther and were allowed both Misses Lucille Fenner and Ruth Mc- Clellan as our supervisors. We were sorry to see Kathaleen Martin leave our happy group but were glad to welcome Kathryn Predmore to it. In 1932 we thought ourselves quite big be- cause we were the oldest class in the grade school building. Both Misses Florence Danner and Lucille Fenner supervised our group and tried to help us learn as much as we tried to make people believe we already knew. In 1933 a proud but shy group made their way to the high school building and although it was all new and strange to us, we soon became ac- quainted and happy with the help of Mr. Clifton Olds, Mr. Jason Murlin, and Miss Naomi Young. In 1934- we were ready to start in on another year of study with the help of Miss Clarabell Spacht, Miss Julia Joliff, and Mr. Vvilliam Miller. In 1935 we started on the most important part of our education. We welcomed Eugene Beech- ing, Haldon Cheesman, Dorothy Cheesman, Buth Hunter, Lois Knaus, Margaret Sampson, and Kathaleen Martin to our group. This year we were fortunate to have for our teachers: Mr. Paul Lati- mer, Mr. William Miller, Miss Clarabell Spacht, Miss Lorene Billman and Mr. E. L. Bailey. ln 1936 we advanced another year and wel- comed Earl Cashman, George Hough, and Evelyn Steele to our class when school opened. Guy Cunningham came for the last semester. This year we had Miss Alta Bancroft, Miss Helen Summer, Mr. Morris Oldham, Mr. John Maxwell, Mr. Sher- man Moist, and Mr. E. L. Bailey, as our super- Visors. In 1937 we welcomed John Rudd, Ina Mae and Inez Merree Keinath, and Betty Schreck to our group and had Mr. E. L. Bailey, Mr. John Maxwell, Mr. Morris Oldham, Mr. Sherman Moist, Mr. James B. Derr, Miss Jeanette Reese, and Miss Kathaleen Amos as our teachers. And now in 1938 we started on the last year of our education together as one happy group. We welcomed Mrs. Eva Watts Hough and Mrs. Mariam Carwood Johnson to our graduating group. We are happy when we look back over the many joy- ous times we have spent together and it makes us sad to think we may never meet again as one happy class. Good Luck to each is wished by us all and we hope that some time we may meet again to spend maybe, just an 'hour as the gradu- ating class of '39, Our group has increased from twelve to thirty and we have met and lost many friends along the way, but really, we are still just the same joyous children who started school- in 1927. ... t.. th...

In this dream I found myself walking down the streets of Paris. I came upon a sign reading Beeching's Famous Beauty Salon. Well, being in the market for a shampoo, and hair dress I walked in to find myself face to face with a person with whom I had gone to school back at P. H. S. He then told me he was busy but if I could wait a few minutes he thought he could find room for an old class- mate. I sat down on one of their large lofty sofas which was in the waiting room and was ready to pick up a mag- azine when out walked Earl Cashman who is now substi- tuting for Clark Gable and was in the beauty salon getting his regular beauty treatments which he told me consisted of arching the eye brow, a facial, shampoo and finger wave. Finally getting out of the Salon I started on my way to do some shopping. Wanting something different in the hat line I inquired to find who was the most popular hat de- signer in Paris. I was directed to a shop which has a sign reading 'Styling For Your Own Individual Personality. Upon entering I found a quite distinguished looking gen- tleman who turned out to be my old classmate Haldon Cheesman. While in my hours of conversation with him I found that LeRoy Ellison was the head coach at Yale. Dorothy Jean Cheesman, now the proud mother of four children, prays ,nightly for their papa, John Rudd, who brings home the bacon by driving a Rolls Royce special, on the dirt tracks of Paris. I next found myself walking in a large tent of the Barnum and Bailey, Ringling Brothers famous circus. Here I found Lucille Carrick selling popcorn and peanuts while the graceful Ruth Hunter is doing the trapeze act. In Ruth's dressing room I was informed that Kathryn Pred- more is Richland County's health nurse and Margaret Sampson is now with an opera which is in New York. Guy Cunningham is president of the W. C. T. U. and Gene Cornell is the boss over the W. P. A. workers of Richland County. After a few more very enlightening stories I was directed to the next tent where I was to find something of interest. Following her instructions I found myself in the tent where the well known Betty Schreck is training under Clyde Beatty, with the intention of taking his place upon his retirement. After conversing with Betty for some time she handed me a newspaper pointing out articles of inter- est to me. The first article was about my classmate, Thel- ma Caywood who is Plymouth's kindergarten teacher, she is now taking a three months vacation in Europe, accom- panying her is her personal maid Margaret Gowitzka. I next discovered a new radio program coming on the air which was a children's story hour, directed by Marian Ruth Nimmons, under the auspices of N. B. C. There was also an article about the Kentucky Derby which for the first time in history was featuring two lady jockeys and upon reading farther I was very much surprised to find that they were the quite unheard of Keinath twins. In the advertising department of the Kroger store I found Donald Bettac preparing the Kroger bills for his chain of stores over which he is the manager. From Donald Bettac I learned that Harlow Kendig was in Cali- fornia getting ready to make a trans-continental flight in his new airship which he designed himself. As I was about to leave, Donald happened to mention a radio program which he had heard that morning, it had been conducted by the former Gertrude Echelbarger and her husband, who was a well known orchestra leader. Continuing my journey along the streets I saw many billboards reading, Come one Come all, to the Cosmetic Auction, at the Arena in Cleveland Saturday evening at 8:00 o'clock. Auctioneer, Evelyn Steele. On my way I stopped at a little novelty shop to buy some gold fish and I noticed on the label that they had been raised by Betty Briggs on her Goldfish Ranch in Arizona. As I was com- ing out of the shop I bumped into a smart looking young man who immediately started his high pressure sales talk on Heinz 57 varieties with his 57 notions. After he was all through talking I recognized him as David Dick. In passing the hospital I saw a much worried man Lacing up and down with his open bank book in his hand and he informed me that his wife the former Kath- leen Martin had just given birth to sextuplets. I decided immediately to go in and see my old classmate, and proceeding to the Maternity Ward I met Lois Knaus who was head supervisor of the hospital. To my surprise, Lois informed me that Mrs. .lohnson was undergoing a very serious operation performed by the famous surgeon, Mrs. Bill Hough, who got her technique from William. Suddenly, I awake to find myself on the floor, and Junior yelling, Mom, I want a drink of water.
