With Eddie Linthicum as Chief Guide, Martha York and Robert Conley as Assistant Guides, June Schell and Eddie Linthicum as Council Members, the remaining twenty-six climbers, Bonnie Criswell, Pat Bowser, Kenny Ryan Frank Taylor, Betty Knott, Dick Stiles, Margaret Emlnger, Cecil Klmmell June Frederick, Honey Jean Shelvis , Alice Krotzer, Paul Hosted, Ivan Malone, Herbert Donat, Virgil McDonald, Charles Rabbitt, Robert Browning Alvin Potee, Ruby Johnson, Mary Jo Growcock, and Freddy Peck, managed to survive the initiation afflictions heaped upon them. Before many months had passed Freddy Peck withdrew to join the Merchant Marines and, Dick Stiles moved to Chicago. Before the year ended, Dick Cutler entered. As the second lap of the journey was being organized, Betty Treesh, Sally Donat, Franklin Nickolson, Katherlne Hulen, Dick Stiles, and Jerry Runyan came to reinforce our troop. During the vacation, Margaret Eminger, Bonnie Criswell, Ruby Johnson, and Martha York had dropped out. This year Robert Conley served as Chief Guide, and Eddie Linthicum, Virgil McDonald, and Betty Treesh as Assistant Guides, and Edith Cook and Jack Edmonds as Council Members. At Christmas , Dick Cutler withdrew to Areola, and Frank Taylor joined the Navy. The Sophomore Carnival was given successfully, and the class colors, red and white were chosen. Also sweaters, red with white letters, were chosen, and the class f lower the gardenia, was selected. At the end of the expedition the class total was twenty-nine. In the year 1947, the Jolly Juniors, having lost Jerry Runyan to the Marines, Frank Nickllson to Yakima, Washington, and having Bonnie Criswell, Herbert Donat, and Cecil Kimmell withdraw, gained Donna Murphy, Marjorie Snooks, and Ed Sattler. On October 18th, the Juniors presented their play, The Angell Brats , which was well presented and well received. Also the rings were received and well liked by everyone This year Eddie Linthicum was again elected Chief Guide, with June Schell and Katie Hulen as Assistant Guides. Roberta Eckhart, Jack Edmonds, and Robert Conley were Council Members. On the last lap of their upward journey, the class elected Eddie Linthicum, Donna Murphy and Roberta Eckhart as officers, and Edith Cook Paul Hosted, and Eddie Linthicum as Council Members. Over summer vaca- tion, Alice Krotzer, Pat Bowser, Betty Knott, Marjorie Snoo ks , and Kenny Ryan all withdrew from the climb. Then a short time after school had started, Charles Rabbitt joined the Navy, leaving twenty-two Seniors to reach the goal of Point Graduation. Of the twenty-two graduating Seniors, only three have spent their entire twelve years at the Rome City Sohool. Edith Cook, June Schell, and Robert Browning enrolled in the first grade at Rome City in 1936, and have continued their schooling here without withdrawing. In January, work was begun on the Gladiator . The Senior play given April 23rd, and the Junior-Senior Banquet, held at the Country Club, April 17th. Baccalaureate was May 2nd, with the final activity Commencement, May 6th. 10 SENIOR WILL We, the Senior Class of Rome City High School, Orange Township of Noble County, state of Indiana, in these United States of America, do hereby, this year of our Lord, nineteen hundred forty-eight, declare this to be our last will and testament.

In testimony, we, the class of nineteen hundred forty-eight, de- clare this to be our last will and testament on this first day of Febru- ary, nineteen hundred and forty-eight. President Secretary As the crystal ball from last year la broken, we find we must use aomething else, so we decided upon Madame Zuzu. As we sat Inside her small, dark home, Madame went into a trance and peered into the future. We find ourselves in a large city news-paper office. There on the 3rd 1 or, we see one of our old classmates, Al Potee. Al, we learn is the top sports writer and radio announcer. Al (Gates) Potee, he is known as. Al tella us he had seen another of our olaaamatea recently who la now playing profesaional baaketball. We decided to go aee this boy. We found that Red Conley is the star player with the All-Amerlcan — Red Heads . Red was very glad to see us and told ua that he waa now married and had a red-headed son, Bobbie Jr. We talked with Red for about an hour, and he told ua that he had aeen June Frederick juat the other day. June, now, Mra. Bob Holcomb was very happily married and living In Fort Vayne. As we left Red, he told ua where we might find another claaamate. Tr aveling out into the country, we came upon a large farm; on the mailbox It aaid, Mr. and Mra. Paul Hosted . Aa we approached the farm houae, we aaw pete coming In from the barn. He waved to ua and oame over to talk. Paul had a 350 acre farm and had married a model from New York. He told ua that Jack Edmonda , another ' 48 graduate, alao had a farm down the road about five milea. Jack had taken up dairy farming and he had married a girl from Fort Wayne. He was very- aucceaaful In the dairy farming bualneas. After saying goodbye to Pete, we decided to go back 12 Prophecy (cont.) into the city, passing an art museum, we noticed a familiar name on the outside poster. It said, Roberta Eckhart ' s Paintings Being Shown this week . We were very happy to know this and decided to go in and see Roberta. As we went in where the paintings were being shown, we saw her and waved to her. After the show, she talked to us. We learned that she had gone to college and had good luck after that. We admired her paint- ings and later had dinner with her. She told us that she was now engag- ed to Bernard Chapman and expected to be married the next month. She also told us that she had gone home the week before and had seen Mary Grow- cock, who was now Mrs. Ernie Gard. Mary Jo had been married shortly after school was out and was now living on a farm in the West. Mary Jo had told Roberta that Katie and Don, (the former Katie Hulen), had visit- ed her and Ernie recently. Katie had been married in June following graduation and she and Don were living in Kendallville. Katie was a part time secretary and had her own home and was, indeed, very happy. After bidding Roberta farewell, and good luck, we aecided to find a hotel, and golngintothe largest one in the city, who should we meet as receptionist but Sally Donat. Delighted at our good fortune, we all had tea and talk- ed about the old days back at old Rome City. Sally said that Doris Donat was a very successful hair-dresser in Chicago, and was married to a big hotel owner. Betty Treesh,we also learned was a hair-dresser, and wife, of Dick Faux, and was living in Indianapolis. Sally said that Honey Jean Shelvis was a singer with a name band at the leading night club in the city. We decided to drop over and see Honey. After bidding Sally goodbye, we proceeded on our way. Stopping for a red light we saw a policeman on the corner and thought he certainly looked familiar. As he turned toward us, we were very amazed to find it to be Ivan Malone. We pulled to the curb to chat with Ivan for a minute. We found that after graduating, Ivan had farmed for a few years, and then gone into the city, and decided he ' d like to become a cop . Glad to hear of Ivan ' s success, we continued to the night club. As we approached the uptown section, who should we see coming out of a grocery but Ed Sattler, another of our classmates. Ed told us that he was doing the weekly shopping; furthermore he told us that he now had a large farm and was doing nicely in the farm ing industry. He also told us he was married and had a daughter. Wishing Ed good luck, we went into the night club and without much trouble, found Honey Jean. Glad to see us and learn of other classmates, Honey showed us into her dressing room where we could talk. Here, we met her husband, Gene Paulas, and learned of Honey ' s good fortune. She had begun singing as soon as school was out and had soon acquired a job with a band. Now, she was singing five nights a week with a name band In the largest night club in the city. We learned from Honey Jean that Edith Cook was now a Home Economics teacher in Cleveland, Ohio. Edith had gone to college after working a year, and shortly after college had gotten a good teach- ing job. We were glad to know that Edith was happy and successful. Honey, had many things to do so we decided not to take up any more time. After leaving her, as we were driving along the highway, W e noticed a sign saying Daredevil Racers , The Masked Daredevil , today ' s main attraction. We decided we might find some excitement at the auto races and turned off the side road ana drove about a mile to the tracks. In the bleachers, we watched daring tricks, done by skillful drivers, and, finally the main attraction was on. The Masked Daredevil certainly liv- ed up to hisname.He drove through a fiery ring, went over a hundred miles per hour, and ended with a head-on-collison. After much applause, he un-masked and to our delight and amazement, it was none other than Robert Browning. This was certainly the crowning glory of the day. Talking to Bob later, we found he was a successful daredevil and was happy and con- tented driving recklessly. He owned his own home and was married and had a baby girl. After leaving the race tracks, we decided to try and take an airplane ride as many of us had never been in a plane. At the airport we asked a young man about taking a ride, and he told us he ' d get the in- structor. As we waited, a familiar looking girl walked toward us. At once we Identified her as June Schell, another graduate of 1948. We asked June what she was doing out here and were startled to learn that she was the instructor. We took our rides, which were very enjoyable, and learned a- bout how June had gone to college at Indiana for a few years, and, then had decided she wanted to fly. She proudly told us that she now owned, her own p-38, June told us that she had seen Joyce Schwarz not long ago, Joyce was now married to Fritz Brown and lived in Fort Wayne. Glad to re- ceive this information, we aaked what had happened to Donna Murphy. She, 13 ■ •-- ■ mm Prophecy (cont.) had gone to college for a year at I.U. but had become engaged and was now married. Donna, June told us, was a very nice sister-in-law. After saying goodbye to June, we drove back into the city, talking about our eventful day. Vie named off our classmates one-by-one, discussing what each was doing. At Virgil McDonald ' s name, we stopped. Virgil had worked for a while at home and soon had gotten a farm of his own. He is now a successful dairy farmer and has one of the most modern dairy farms in all Indiana. Eddie Linthicum, for a while, had worked in Fort Wayne, but then had gotten a job on the railroad, and is now an engineer on the fastest diesel on the railroad. Eddie is very satisfied with his pro- fession and is married, as is Virgil, and both have sons. Back at the hotel, we had the radio on and the man ' s voice certainly seemed familiar At the end of his song, we learned that the crooner was Dick Stiles, who was now the Frankie of the age. As we had now seen each of our class of 48, Madame Zuzu fell out of her trance and collected for her trouble. Satisfied by our prophecy, we paid the Madame and went our way. If tbis prophecy doesn ' t hold true, see Zuzu. BABY PICTURES 1. Mary Jo Growcock 2. Edward Sattler 3. June Frederick 4. Doris Donat 5. Virgil McDonald 6. Ivan Malone 7. Donna Murphy 8.

Second Row-Lee Ferry, Coach, Jack Edmonds, Paul hosted, Russell Ramer, Claude Hoffman, and John Biddle. The varsity team has had a very successful year as the record will prove. Mr. Perry, in his second year here at Rome City, has guided his team to 11 wins and 5 losses during the regular secheduled season. The boys won 1 game in the county tourney and then lost. A very successful season was enjoyed by the Romans who usually played a beautiful game of ball and came through with flying colors. The high score man for the season was Ramer, with Racht a close runner-up, and Hosted following closely in third place. 27 Tnsr-C. SECOND TEAM First Row-Barnard Chapman, Donald Worman, Donald Spillner, Warren Hague, Jack Ward, Lynn Van Aman, and Larry Van Aman. Second Row-George Fipp, Virgil Hiatt, Tim Acklea, Don Havert, Jim Fipp, Dean Grlswell, Max Miller, Duane Stewart, and George Kerr. The Junior Romans have done very well, winning about fifty per cent of their games. They lost a lot of their games by a thin margin of one or two points. It wasn ' t because of lack of fight, but lack of the ability to hit at close range. There was no real starting line up. Most of the boys got into each game and had a chance to prove what they could do. Their positions are as follows: Larry Van Aman g; Lynn Van Aman g; Bernard Chapman g,f ; Donald Havert F,g; Virgil Hiatt c,f ; Tim Ackles f, g; Jack Ward g; Duane Stewart f,g; Donald Spillner f; Walter Kandetzki f Max Miller c,f ; George Fipp g; James Fipp c; Warren Hague g; Dean Criswell c,f ; Donald Worman f ; George Kerr g. £8 Left— Tim Ackles Forward Right— Max Miller Center Wayne Shull Wayne Shull, a Junior this year, has been student manager for the gast two years. Being depend- able and reliable — Wayne has done a good job of managing and taking care of the basketball equipment. The coach and basket- ball team will look forward to his effi- cient services again, next year. 1 M i I- L H . M h± Max Rhea Even the best, need a manager. That 1 s the second team. And, as Max Rhea fits the bill, he is now man- ager. Having started this year as manager, Max haa to hang up uniforms, clean the basketballs, and in general, be responsi- ble for the second team and their equip- ment. Lee Perry Basketball, I believe, is one of the most Important extra-curricular activities in our Indiana High Schools. There are over a thousand high schools in this state and each school has a varsity basketball team. The type of individual who partici- pates in this activity, both as a player and a fan are the ones who would be prone to juvenile delinquen- cy. Thus a good basketball game is an excellent source of letting off steam. For this reason alone basket- ball is well worth the time and ef- fort of all those who have any part in it. 29 Left-- Eddie Linthicum Guard Right — Paul Hosted Forward Below--Jack Edmonds Forward Left — Bob Conley Forward - Guard Right-- Virgil McDonald Guard 30 31 YELL LEADERS Dorothy Kerr, Robert Browning, Donna Murphy On, Rome City, On, Rome City, We must win this game.

This year was the first year we have had baseball at Rome City since the year of forty-two. The boys seemed to like it real well and played hard at it. They had a fair season by winning one game and losing two and tying one. The team was led by Chapman, who had a very good batting average of .500. Conley was second in batting with a .420 average.
