efadd poem We the class of '54 Are no better and no worse Than the things we aim to tell In this simple little verse. A nice girl from over the river The one who lives by the bridge Is none other than Dorothy Anderson A very sweet girl she is! The two brothers in our class One with red hair and the other brown ls Darle and Donald Bilger Upon them we'll never frown. Leonard Bingerman's third on the list A fine looking boy of our class. How he likes the A 8K P-- This we needn't ask. The girl who puzzles the teachers With the questions that she asks Is June Lucinda Brubaker Who never shirks her tasks. Ronald Casner's our class president When we elected him we knew. That for years he would guide us And bravely lead us through. To Shirley, Lois and Mary It seems a big thing In their last year of high school To receive a diamond ring. Jennie is the clown of the class You never know what she'll do Because she's always cracking gum She's continually annoying you. Jean Notestine is a timid girl She never makes a sound But when in the pea-green Pontiac You know that she's around. In English, French or Chemistry And even in P. O. D. This fellow named Bob Yoder Seldom makes below a 'B'. Beulah is the only one Who is married in our class. We wish much happiness in the future To this very charming lass. Around the corner down the hall We hear giggling loud and clear Because of this we readily know That Nannie and Shirley are near. This is our she-hot-rod She has a temper too, But if you're Shirley Dunmire's friend Her temper's not for you. Martha, who is better known as Miss Is very well liked you see Since devoting much time to the piano A great player she should someday be The Editor of our Broadcaster Is Marlin, a very tall lad Whether he becomes an editor or salesman We feel sure he'Il never be sad. Don Knepp is the hot-rod Who likes to run around But when he's in study hall He can truly be a clown. We have a boy named Fisher Whose willing to give his aid lf you ever need a friend Of him you needn't be afraid. 'Though Stanley's not as tall As most of the boys in class This doesn't mean he has no brains Because he still works fast. The girl with the trumpet? Oh! That's Nancy, you see To the door of success She holds the key. You hear a rattle down the road It's a vehicle nothing can lick ln case you see this car approach lt's the one driven by Dick.

elau Poem cewof-mit Don Knouse, a member of the class At making posters is a whiz With skill he measures, paints and trims In his field he's the best there is. Another lad comes into view His name is William White As Randolph in our Sophomore play He was an interesting sight! Almost any hour of the night Or anytime during the day You'll find Bill Crosson in Ferguson Valley Because that is where he stays. Bill Dunmire is a friendly lad Who likes to help at home With the sawmill business going well We know he'll never roam. Rich .is the athlete of the group He's rather tall and thin When he shoots the basketball lt almost always goes in. Larry Mertz who's next in line A play writer wants to be We hope he'lI be a big success But we'll have to wait and see. Anna Mary's rather short But at laughing she's an Ace When you enter our classroom You first see her smiling face. Glwu One who keeps our spirits up And seems to never tire ls Shirlee Yoder, who likes to act Now this gal we all admire. A distinguished looking person Who likes to play her flute Is Miriamg who we call 'Mim' And we think she's rather cute. From Mattawana we have these three: Donna, Nina and Jean . After crossing the railroad tracks These three are usually seen. Richard Harshbarger's rather quiet 'Though he likes to have his fun But when it comes to school work It seems it's never done. Eugene Miller is surprising His nickname's 'Pumpkin ball' When it comes to hunting He's the best one of us all. If you haven't liked our bit of verse Or thought our gems were pearly Cast credit, blame or praise upon Sunderland Martha and Campbell Shirley With school days now behind us We with a courage bold Turn to face tomorrow The future to unfold. dl We the members of the class of Nineteen Hundred and Fifty Four being of sound and disposing mind and memory, do make, publish, and declare the following as and for our last will and testament, hereby revoking all former wills, devices, and bequests by us at any time made. PART I To the Junior Class we will our ability to keep the halls in an uproar. To the Sophomore Class we will Novak's for roller skating parties. To the Freshman Class we will Abe Johnson's green apples.
