The student council, composed of the presidents and vice-presidents of the upper six classes, has held meetings this year for the purposes of organizing and electing officers, approving the banishment of gum chew- ing, and resolving to begin the censorship of all pocket books. At the beginning ofthe second semester, the council elected officers. Otis Port was chosen president while Don Grabach was elected vice- president. Pearl Lucas was elected secretary. A committee composed of Pearl Lucas, Bud Berberick and Otis Port drew up a resolution recommending students turn in books to Mr. Coon for approval. As a result of the council's action some books were re- moved from the shelves ofthe public library. At the time of this writing, the council has not yet completed its work. The possibility of a student court is being considered. We hope that the latter will become o reality.

H. S. --forever. This time it is the senior class of l955. Sixteen of the present members of our class started on their iourney together: Ruth Keith, Sue Helbig, Jim Brown, Dick Goldsmith, Bud Garrett, Pat Chronister, .bannette Bettac, Otis Port, Howard Compton Bill Ellis, John Fox, Kent Knaus, Nancy Barbour, Alice Mumea, Nelson Roberts, and Carol Jo Cunning- ham. Through the capable hands of Mrs. Harry we started our first year together. Learning the alphabet was the main thing that year. Betty Reed ioined us in our second year. With Mrs. 'VlcFadden as our teacher, I remember how diffi- cult it was to write the ABC's just the right way. With WS. Huffman to lead us through the third grade, we started the year with Pearl Lucas as a new member. I never will forget that day in the fourth grade when Nellie Roberts and Jenny Brown came to school with very curly hair--the result of pin curls the night before. Mrs. Farrar, as our teacher, led us in c good laugh that day, but we were soon back to our struggle with the multiplication tables. Howard Compton and Pearl Lucas left us that year, but both returned later. We started the fifth grade with two new members, Carol Cobb and Dorothy Binion. Mrs. Ervin led us through that year with a Halloween Party being the big social event. We gained two members in the sixth grade, Janet Smith and a former classmate, Pearl Lucas. Dur- ing the last year in grade school, Mrs. Davis answered our many questions and settled our many squabbles . Junior high at last! We were in the seventh grade but how bewildering, this going from class to class, was. Mr. Bishop was our sponsor that year, and a very trying year it was. Larry Vanasdale ioined us in the eighth grade. With the help of our sponsor, Nr. Samaha, we chose our subiects for the coming year. Our freshman year was one we will all remember. Miss Patton, as our sponsor, helped us put on our first dance Buttons and Bows . Howard Compton reioined us this year. In our sophomore year we really began to make money for our trip. Miss Patton, who was again our sponsor, helped us with our Superstitious Shindig . We were now more familiar with high school life. Our iunior year was a very full one. We presented our first class play A-Feudin' Over Yonder . It was a huge success. We had all looked forward to receiving our class rings, and when we did re- ceive them, we exhibited them proudly to everyone who was the least bit interested. Before long it was time to plan for the Junior-Senior Banquet. We chose as our theme Stardust Serenade . We hope Mr. Sarpa, as our sponsor, has as many enioyable memories of that year as we have. We have finally reached the end of the trail. As we took up our classes this year, we came back with a feeling of dignity and a little sadness because this is our last year. This year we welcomed a new member, Marilyn Fisher. We have presented our play, Gown of Glory , and given our annual dance. We have enioyed the Junior-Senior Banquet given us by the Juniors. Mr. Hobson, has helped us a great deal through this quickly passing year. Now as we pass on to a new phase of life, I think we will all look back with a smile to the events of our school life that have led us up to our final year. We will long remember the work and the fun we had with our many teachers and friends as we face the road ahead. Carol Jo Cunningham 20 Marilyn Fisher, secretaryg Carol Jo Cunningham, treasurer. vl- Pearl Lucas, vice-president This is the year 1955 The year we've been waiting for The year in which we labored on To make our goals show more. Each person has a certain goal To achieve after leaving school. And this is the year for each of us To use our knowledge as a lasting tool We have many memories this very year And years that have long since passed But all of these will ever live on Each one filed and classed. Our motto a lasting one For us Is Victory is Ours Forever . It will always remain the same To achieve it is our endeavor. The class who has a chosen flower A carnation so pure and white Shows our thoughts to be the best And our dispositions gay and light. Our colors which are blue and white The blue for loyalty stands The white is tor our purity ln this we all ioin hands. The seniors will join me in saying For the day is approaching to leave. We'll miss this school and its teachers But new seniors you soon will receive. ---Marilyn Fisher C. Otis Port, president ,K f 2, , Nancy Jane Barbour Toots F.T.

Ca rol Cobb 28 eniot 61444 ptopieay After warning the passengers to fasten their safety belts, I returned to the rear of the plane to dream of my two free days in New York City. I enioyed my job as hostess but I enioyed more my days off in between flights. Lpon arriving in New York City, I made plans to attend the opera. Looking over my clothes, I decided I needed a new evening gown, so out I went to buy a new one. While walking down 5th Avenue l spied a dress in the window of an exclusive dress shop that I liked very much. But inside the saleslady refused to take it out of the window. So I insisted upon seeing the manager. The manager land owner, as I later found outl was Jeannette Bettac. She asked my plans for the evening. When I said that I was going to attend the opera, she advised me to see Aida which was featuring Janet Smith and Nelson Roberts. Janet and Nelson had come up fast in the entertain- ment field, and were the favorites in Metropolitan Opera. Jeannette also advised me to see the stage production of Love ls Eternal , in which Howard Compton had the role of Abraham Lin- coln. After my two wonderful days were over, I reported back to the airport. This time my flight went to Washington D.C. Having heard that Carol Cobb was working as Private Secretary to the President, I decided to go see her. She had an appointment to go to a beautician, so she in- vited me to go along. The beautician was Alice Mumea. Vlhile Alice was busy with Carol Ann, I settled down in an easy chair to relax with the morning paper. I lazily turned pages until this headline caught my eye, Senators lose again, as Fox leads Indians to victory. Reading farther I found that it was John Fox, who was now playing his 5th year of ball with the Indians. That evening, while having dinner, I kept staring at a couple at the next table. There was something familiar about those two. In leaving, I walked past their table, and the girl sudden- ly gave out with a laugh. I stopped dead in my tracks, because that laugh, I will never forget. Going back to their table, I found indeed, Nancy Barbour and Kent Knaus. Nancy said that she was in 'Washington as the representative of the Ohio 4-H. Kent had iust been appointed Secretary of Agriculture. Arriving back at the airport, I was thrilled to know that my next flight went to South America. On my day off, I rented a car and started driving around. After driving for a few miles, my way was obstructed by a crowd of people. I impatiently honked the horn and shouted for them to move. Two angry missionaries pushed their way through the crowd and were ready to tell me off, when they recognized me. Here in this obscure place were Marilyn Fisher and Otis Port. On the way back to the states my plane was grounded on a tiny island in the Caribbean Sea. In order to get us immediately back to the states, they chartered a Navy cruiser. This being my first cruise, I became sea sick. The lady whose room I shared advised me to go to the ship's doctor. After entering the office, I decided I wasn't sick anymore, so I turned to leave. Before I reached the door, iron hands gripped me and a voice said, Hello Babee . I turned, 0St0niSl1ed, to look into the face of Jim Brown, uniform and all. He hadn 't been able to avoid the Navy after all. He gave me some pills and said I could wait and see Betty Reed, his nurse, if I wished. 29 Prophecy continued Feeling better that night, I took a stroll around the deck. About halfway around, my feet found a wet spot, and down I went. Two embarrased sailors picked me up. Somehow the red faces looked familiar. Sure enough the faces belonged to Bill Ellis and Dick Goldsmith. They were making a career of the Navy. A couple of hours later I found myself in a hotel dining room in New O'leans, listening to the band with a pre-occupied air. A girl started to sing and she had my undivided attention. The voice sounded so familiar that I asked a waiter what her name was. He told me Pat Chron- ister. Imposed to talk he also told me that she was running for Mayor of New O'leans. Before my final flight and a three month's vacation, I was ordered back to Cleveland for a special service. I was to play nursemaid to two television comedy-singer stars. Oh, how l was going to hate this fob. But after I found out that they were Ruth Keith and Carol Jo Cunningham I enioyed myself thoroughly. My last flight was to Paris, France. Now I would really enioy myself. Oh, those sandy beaches of the Riveria and those divine Frenchmen. But it just happened, that every man on the beach headed for one girl. Going closer to see what the attraction was, I found Sue Helbig. Getting her away from all of those men, she said that she had finally realized her dream of five years--travel, but she wasn't so sure she was going to leave France. On my vacation, I was iust going to stay home and rest. But I received a letter from a friend telling me what fun she had had on a dude ranch in Wyoming. This made me restless so I decided to pack up and go. ln the train station at Columbus, I picked up a discarded newspaper. A pic- ture on the front page caught my eye. The Captain with the picture read like this Bemard Garrett, appointed head basketball coach at Ohio State University . Another one ofthe Class of '55 who made good. At the station in Wyoming, a broken down ieep met me. I tried to talk to the driver, but all he ever said was yep or nope. Even the yep's and nope's sounded familiar so finally I asked him his name. I almost fell out of the jeep, when he said Larry Vanasdale. He had bought the ranch after he had made his millions manufacturing little yellow whistles, but not for children to annoy teachers with . A few days after my arrival, I noticed a cute little girl who went around flirting with all of the cowboys. I asked Larry who she was. He said he was surprised I didn 't know an old friend. Yep, that's right. Dorothy Binion was her name. She worked for Larry in his horse show every s rung. P Well, that takes care of the Class of '55, and I hope every other class that graduates from Plymouth has as much success as ours does. Pearl Lucas 30 I .feniot 61455 play Under the capable direction of Superintendent Coon, Gown of Glory , a drama in three acts, was presented by the senior class of l955. This play took place at the turn of the l9th century. It starts out in the summertime with the church committee on Reverend David Lyall's neck, because they believed his family was not living up to the morals of a good minister's family. We learn about the joys, disagreements and loves of the humble preacher's family. Lucy, whose lover, Ninian, was in serious trouble, because of neglect from his millionaire father. Faith, who gave music lessons, and who fell in love with John Jenkins, was the oldest daughter. Then vs.: have Jeremy, another member of the Lyall family, who didn't want to become a preacher and, consequently, had to go against his father's wishes. We could not forget Mary Lyall, David's wife. She kept David on the right track and with the help of Mr. Dilling, a friend of David's, put the church committee in its place . This family and its adventures fumished one of the most exciting plots for any of the plays here at P. H. S. This senior class deserves a good hand for the good acting and the marvelous costumes that were seen and qapreciated in this play. unioz Elan play M'. Norlock, a money hungry businessman, won't let daughter Mary marry Joe Lanconi be- cause .be's papa is poor. When Joe's papa, Luigi, goes over to plead his son's case, he is practi- cally booted out of the house. This starts a feud that puts the Hatfield-McCoy fracas to shame. Nr. Morlock says if Mary weds Joe it will be over his dead body. The excitement is,too much for Luigi and he dies of heart attack. lt looks like all is over but Luigi gets permission ta come back and haunt Morlock 'till he. gives permission for the wedding. A ghost is too much for Morlock, in his despair he takes too many sleep. ing pills and kicks the bucket. Lucifer comes after him but Morlock refuses to go until things are settled. And to top it all off, he watches Mary prepare for her wedding, daughter Jessica, pre- pares to start her wrestling career, Mother Morlock is actually smiling again and family Doctor Brown, right in front of the deceased Mr. M. , actually holds her hand and hints at matrimony. Just when Morlock realized what a heel he has been,Mildred awakens him--he spent the night on the sofa. He didn't die and neither did Luigi--it was all a bad dream. Needless to say, a very reformed Mr. Morlock makes vast promises, and okays the wedding, and peace final ly reigns at the N0rlock's. 31 S 5? 1 5: f, '? ,,, Q, 9 X II ii E r 2 ,.

Our play was Rest Assured and everyone congratulated us on its success Lenore Briggs was the iunior attendant at Homecoming and Bud Berberick was her escort. During basketball season we sold concessions at the games to earn money for our treasury. Rose Fenner was football cheerleader from our class and Mary Robertson and Bette Carter were bas- ketball cheerleaders. March l8th we had our class dance. May 6th was our Junior-Senior Banquet. We had planned all year for this and were not disappointed by it. .golalofnote -Hctivitied The sophomore class had a very active year. They did a number of things this year to make money for their class trip and to iust have fun. They had their class dance, The Merry Mix Lp, on October 22. Pot Markley was chosen to represent the sophomore class as queen's attendant. At Christmas they had a turkey raffle which gave them a good profit. A group of sophomores went on a skating party the first part of January, and had a lot of fun. Now they are planning a bake sale to make some more money. They will have another party towards the end of the year. Tteslman -Hctivities It would be hard to tell the many activities the freshman class has participated in this yearp but here are a few of the many. The freshman boys were ready and willing to fight when football season came. At the Homecoming, Janet Mclntire was chosen as the Oueen's attendant and she was escorted by Larry Taylor. There were four football lettermen from the freshman class this year. Wnen basketball season rolled around, Shelby Reed was chosen as cheerleader from the freshman class. There were four boys who played first string reserve and three of these played varsity. The freshman class girls who belonged to the F. H.A. participated in a program about the United Nations. The Freshman Dance was held on April 29. 58 ssl' if . BACK ROW: S. Myres, H. Conklin, S. Reed, E. Binion, M. Robertson, M. McGregor, E. Ousley. MIDDLE ROW: Mrs. Waynes, C. Schnider, E. Trauger, P.

A. is to develop confidence, leadership, and good sportsmanship. This year the girls participated as a team in softball and basketball. We played the schools in this area. All-in-all the girls did very well. The girls also hiked, skated, and did many other things that they could do by themselves in order to earn points in G. A. A. The officers for this year are: Nancy Barbour-president, Betty Reed-vice-president, Pearl Lucas-secretary, Daher Huzovich-point chairman, and Nida Stroup-reporter. 59 a ,.

The first opponent was Buckeye. The Pilgrims not only lost the game, but also Marty Hampton re- ceived a neck iniury which forced him to the sidelines for the rest of the season. Then on to Maumee Valley. The team proved they could play well in the daylight by chalking up their first win of the season. The Pilgrims then played host to Bellville. As in most of the games, the boys were out-weighed and out-manned, and the game was lost. Butler invaded Plymouth, and before a Homecoming crowd, defeated the Pilgrims in a hard-fought game. The next foe was Lodi. Despite the downpour and the muddy field, the Pilgrims came from behind ir the last quarter to win their second game of the season. The trip to Wakeman was not so successful. With a l9-O lead in the first half, our boys fell behind and were defeated after putting up a hard fight. The last game of the season was played at Seville. Again, the Pilgrims showed a fine spirit of de- termination by leading in the first half, but Seville came from behind to win the honors of the game. Even though they didn't win all the games, the Pilgrims showed an outstanding spirit of sportsman- ship in every one of them. They proved they didn't give up easily and were willing to fight until the end. Coach Kreutzfeld deserves much credit for his excellent guidance as well as for the fine improve- ment the team showed. To the team and to the coach, we all say thanks for another enioyable football Cbmpl iments of ROSS TEXACO SBGSOFI . g fettezm en o 4 J s 'V x l, Q' '11 fir view-a L4 Q -1 x Q Cfis Port-Holfbcck Ed Taylor-End Jim Hunt-Quarterback Tom Marvin-Holfback John Fox-End Mart Hampton-Holfbock 64 F Q Q 1 wp fi AK ' M, X , , if 1 9'J'- Q Don Barnfhouse-Tackle Bud Berberick-Guard John Feffers-Fullbcck Q O .- , ,, Q if GQ 2 of .Y K M. it-X Q64 , me-Sf var , :TMA -W .

This year our Plymouth Pilgrims played eighteen basketball games, and though each of them was played well, the team never once came out on top. The main reason for our continuous stream of losses was our lack in height. We had one player that was 6 feet tall with the rest ofthe team averaging near 5' 9 . Our boys displayed the best of courage and stamina. Their sportsmanship deserves a rating as outstanding. Even though our scores weren't on the top, our team placed First in everything else The seniors the team will be losing are John Fox, Otis Port, Bud Garrett, and Howard Compton They are all energetic, ambitious basketball players and their support will be missed inasmuch as they were the nucleus ofthe team.

They were not able to play any games because they did not have enough equip- ment. Even with the lack of equipment they still had practices after school. Mr. Hobson gave his time to show them how to play football. He taught them how to pass, kick, block, and how to catch a pass. The time that Mr. Hob- son and the boys spent together was well worth while because they are our future team. 7l vs , ,,:' Q!

With Mr. Hobson as sponsor this year the iunior high basketball team played several games with Shiloh, New Haven and several other teams. Although we lost several close decisions, the important thing to remember is that the purpose of the junior hid: basketball team is to learn the funda- mentals ancl to have some competitive sports with other schools. Compliments of MclNTlRE'S 72 Eheezleadeu The varsity cheerleaders were Betty Reed, Janet Smith, Bette Carter, and Mary Robertson. Strict rules were brought forth this year concerning practice and cheers. Each cheer the girls did had to be cpproved by Coach Kreutzfeld. Regular practices were also set up. The girls' uniforms were red cordu roy. They had large sailor collars with white ties and white kick pleats in the skin. The reserve cheerleaders were Shelby Reed, Joan Postema, and Daher Huzovich. Their uniforms were the traditional red and white. Although there were only three of them, the girls did a swell fob of leading the student body in cheering the team. S I 'CL 'x J ., ' Q 0' The girls who backed the football team with cheers this year were Rose Fenner Daher Huzovich .hnet Norris, and Junet Smith.

Practice was a lor more important because the band attvnded the District Seven Bancl Contest held at Newark, Ohio. The Christmas Concert was one of the important events held here at P.H. S. Our Concert Banrl had an important part to play in it. Last sumrrrer the Concert Banrl entertained the people ot' Plymouth with the customary Saturday night concerts on the square. We hope that we can hear and see them again this summer. 80 J. Vogel -- P. Burrer M. Riggle -- D. Hunter H. Simmons -- B. Root P. Pagel -- N. Riggle R. Root -- S. Meiser M. Curren -- E. Renz -- J.

The sparkling routines ofthe band, drum maior, and maiorettes were well appreciated by the football fans as well as music lovers. We believe that there is a sparkling and adventurous atmosphere to a marching band, and we should be well pleased to think that Plymouth has one of the best marching bands in all the Cl schools in our district. Outside of the nerve-racking routines the band members endured for the football games, they Found time to participate in a few fairs, one of which was the Ohio State Fair where the bancl marched and also gave a concert. Another fair was the Richland County Fair in 'Vbnstield where our band played over the radio. We are looking forward, as usual, to see them in all their glory on Memorial Day, where they, as a unit, will take part in the services held at that time here in Plymouth. G. Day, J. Broderick, T.

This year the Mixed Chorus had a special period in which to practice. There were two periods a week set aside for this purpose. The Mixed Chorus opened the Christmas Concert with a candlelight procession. The songs that were sung included: Silent Night, Break Forth O' Beautious Heavenly Light, Adoramus Te, God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen, andihe Twe-lve Days cf Christmas. On March l8, the Mixed Chorus sang for Boards of Education of the county which met at Plymouth this year. Mary l9 found us at Shelby, Ohio. The reason, The County Music Festival. We practiced all morning. Then in the evening we sang, Be Thou Not Still and Adoramus Te for our part in the program. This year marked the third year that Plymouth participated in the District 7 Music Contest. This year the contest was held in Newark, Ohio. We sang, The Lord Bless You And Keep You, and EThou Not Still. We finished a very successful year singing for Baccalaureate and Commencement. I think the Mixed Chorus and their director, IW. Dubbert, should be highly praised for their wonderful work. 85 Quatfet Mixed Quartet---Marilyn Fisher, Ruth Keith, Jack McOuate, Nelson Roberts, accompanist, Carol JO Cunningham.

M QQ Q32 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS We breathe a sigh of relief as the 1955 edition of this year's Mayflower goes to the publishers. We hope that all of the many weeks of toil and worry is not in vain There are many persons without whom we would not have had this annual. We wish first to thank most heartedly Mr. Coon who graciously permitted us to have time during the school hours to take photographs and to otherwise do the necessary work on the annual. We next wish to express our thanks to Mr. Smucker of Smucker's Studio for those many fine photographs which appear in the annual. We owe a debt of thanks to our senior co-editor, Nancy Barbour, whose spirit and determination have made The Mayflower a realization instead of merely a E dream. We especially last wish to thank our sponsor, Mr. Whiteman, for his advice and supervision. We doubt whether we would have completed the work without his co-operation and supervision. His guidance is very much appreciated.
