-LJ THE FAHRICA 1952 SNIITHVILLE HIGH SCHOOL SMITHVILLE, OHIO Published by me efemoofz sky Mary Ann Burkholder, Editor ' anage FORE ORD . . . The students of Smithville High School have found much joy in the many activities which they have participated in during the past years. These activities served as accessories in making their lives a truly joy- ous one. Thus, we chose as our theme for the Fabrica, OUR 52', CAR. It, too, has to have accessories added to make it an up to date model. The purpose of this book is not to instruct but to re- cord, not to evaluate but to tell a story. It is interested in moods and events rather than ideas, thus, We have the pictures. To those who wish to remember because of the joy and participation and their love for Smithville High School this book is affectionately inscribed. . . MAB two DEDlCATION We, the class of '52 dedicate this 1952 Fabrica to Mr. Wayne B. Wheeler. His keen wit and leader- ship have been gready appreckmed by aH of us Also, his patience amid the diversified opinions will always linger in our memories. We, the Senior Class, wish him much joy and happiness in the future. three Q ,RA V of 52 II 47 Q, 5Hs Ei. '5?

The goal of all of us was that long Walk of the graduation processional and a successful completion of public school life. fourteen MOTTO Ever . . . Backw COLORS Blue and Whit FLOWERS CLASS HISTORY FRESHMEN Into the halls of Smithville High came a group of bashful green freshmen. For some it was the second entrance into the hallowed halls, for they had already greeted these halls in the capacity of eighth graders. Others came from distant places of learning, including a great number from Madisonburg. They acquired a class sponsor, Miss Porter, by name, who lent her able assist- ance to their endeavors. They were ably initiated into the new high school life by the Sophomores, who were not merciful or sympathetic. Some members of the class were on the baseball team, which captured the County championship in that year of 1949. The duly elected officers were as follows: President .......................................,..,.............. ...,..... D ick Hahn Vice-President ....... .,,..... R oger Johnson Secretary ............. ,.... R uth Donaldson Treasurer .....l............. ...... D on Dravenstott Student Council .,..... ........ S ara Burkholder Gene Caskey Reporter ...................,.. ..... M ary Jane Johnson Sergeant at Arms ...............,.,........................,..................... Carl Beichler In addition the reserve cheerleaders were chosen by the school from their class. They were Mary Burkholder, Sara Burkholder, and Ruth Donaldson. SOPHOMORES At the 'start of the sophomore year they remembered the former year, and they themselves initiated the Freshmen. This and others were accomplished with the aid of their advisor, Miss Porter. After much discussion they selected their class colors of blue and white. They ordered sweaters, which arrived in December for a Merry Christmas. Mary Burkholder, Sara Burkholder, and Ruth Donaldson were again elected as reserve cheerleaders by the school. The projects that year of 1950 were selling basketball schedule pencils and a bake sale. The officers were: President ........... Vice-President ..... Secretary ....,...... Treasurer ............. Roger Johnson Gene Caskey Ruth Donaldson Steve Burington Sara Burkholder Student Council ....... ...... Reporter .................., Sergeant at Arms sixteen Dick Marthey Ruby Zimmerman Tom Bowman CLASS HlSTORY JUNIORS As Juniors the class had a new sponsor, Mr. Wheeler. One of their first actions as upper classmen was ordering rings. They were very much delighted when their purchases arrived. A play named We Shook the Family Tree was given. It was a comedy directed by Mr. Krohe. With lots of practice and a good director the play came out a success. They planned a Junior-Senior Banquet, which was a hard drain on their col- lective pocketbook, whereupon the treasurer pleaded loudly for the payment of dues. The banquet was held at Smithville Inn, on May 9. A Hawaiian atmosphere was provided by the waiters, waitresses and decorations. During the year of 1951 they also had a carnival and a bake sale. The officers were: President ......,.v..... Vice President ....... Secretary ............. Treasurer .............,..... Don Dravenstott Gene Caskey Student Council .,...... ...... Sergeant at Arms . Martha Miller Steve Burington Ruth Donaldson Roger Johnson Tom Bowman Reporter ...................... ....... SENIORS Glenn Zimmerly First on the calendar for the Senior year was the class play Just Ducky . It was directed by Mrs. Murray. The play was a comedy and was well accepted by the audience. The senior class held a carnival and several bake sales to raise money for their Washington trip. They also sold refreshments at basketball games, plastic towels. vanilla, and Christmas Cards. Leaders for the year of 1952 were: President ......................................... ............... M artha Miller Vice President ........ .....................

S ara Burkholder Gene Caskey The Juniors gave a banquet in honor of the Seniors on April 26. The seniors thanked them heartily and then went their merry 'way to enjoy the later evening at various entertainments. Baccalaureate services were held in the high school auditorium on May 18. Rev. DeMass was the speaker. On the evening of May 26, 1952 forty young men and women graduated from Smithville High School. They were happy to graduate, but sad too that they would no longer be together. The speaker was very good and inspired them to make the best of their lives. ' They left on their trip to Washington May 27 and returned May 31 with tired bodies and happy memories of the good times they had enjoyed together.

Claribel Walters Ruby Zimmerman Sara Burkholder Paul Snure nineteen ,W ww v, .V ,M lla l PROPHECY 0F CLASS 017 52 In a quiet suburb of Lincoln, Nebraska, stands a neat little house withanice green lawn. This is the home of Ruth and Ronnie Fike. Ruth, the former Ruth Donaldson, and Ronnie, who is now head coach of a large high school in Lincoln, have just gotten word that a rich uncle has died and left them a lot of money. Immediately Ruth suggests a trip, in which they decide to hunt up their old classmates, those of the class of '52, of course. Right away they call Claribel Walters, who is in the business of selling and planning trips for people. She works on a nation wide basis and is consulted by many famous people. She lays out a splendid trip, after she has done a lot of re- search to find out how far this trip must extend, in order to catch all '52ers. According to the itinerary set up by our expert, Miss Walters, we journey first to Chicago and are entertained that evening by the Acorn String Ensemble, in which Pauline and Arlene Smucker are talented artists. We also spend an evening in Chicago at a debate between Ivan Yoder and Wil- fred Meyer. It has been rumored that this series of debates is the best since the famous Lincoln-Webster ones. Ivan and Willie are debating the subject Resolved:- That All Drips Should Stop Dripping.- Our next stop is Weilersville, where we are treated like royalty by Nancy Kaufman, who is the Stewardcss for our trip. We also see Harold Joe Blough at the Haley-Blough Store which is in connection with the railroad station there. We are to go to Smithville and visit in the home of Mary and Sie Burkholder Schrock. After catching up on a little bit of the news there, we go back to our old Alma Mater just for memorie's sake. As we enter the sacred halls of S.H.S., our ears are met with the melodious sounds of many voices blended in one great mass of choral music, under the expert and unfaltering direction of Sara Burkholder, as she prepares her students once more, for one of their well known and well loved operettas, which were famous even in the years that we were students at old Smithville High. And here, too, we find Don Moser has taken over the place once filled by Vern Sinclair. When we are about to leave the sacred halls of S. H. S., we find Stan Smucker backing up to the side door of the school, where he is about to unload the milk and ice cream for the school's use, which has come directly from his dairy. A little farther north, we find that Martha Miller is now running a country children's home and taking care of many a little angel with a dirty face. After visiting Martha, we find ourselves moving northward toward Crile Veterans Hospital at Cleveland, where we find none other than Lucille Haley. She Writes letters to Sweethearts for the Handicapped Veterans, and entertains them with songs. Then boarding the trains, we travel on to Niagara Falls for Ralph Woods, ac- cording to the newspapers, will today dare the powers that he can go over the falls in a Barrel'l of his own construction. Also, we learn that Peggy Wirth and Wynona Pfouts will be there at that time, on an anniversary trip. The anniversary is that of their double wedding. As we find that Paul Snure is a professor of Physics at M. I. T., we head for Massachusetts to see how he is coming. twenty PROPHECY 0F CLASS 0F 6'52 Our next stop is to be New York City. Don Bucher will meet us with his cadallic taxi and take us to the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, where we will meet Glenn Zimmerly, as manager. In the dining room, we are greeted by the host, Tom Bowman. Also, after our first fine meal at the hotel, we meet the dignified floor detective, Bob Conrad, who is chasing down some stolen towels. In the evening, we will attend a stage show by Danny Sauders and Glenn Swisher, who have run Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis out of business. No such trip, however, would be complete without visiting the capitol of our nation, so we head for Washington, D. C. Steve Burington is now Secretary of Treasury of the United States Government. Twila Conrad is his capable secretary. The treasury has made great increases, during the time that Steve has been in office. We visit many great buildings in Washington, among them the National Art Gallery. Here we view the great masterpiece of Modern Art, done by Gene Caskey. He got his start in this field of art, when he spilled the paint one day. When we visit W. W. V. A., we will see Ruby Zimmerman featured as their hillbilly star, who has wooed many a young man by her wonderful rendition of Pistol Packin' Mama. We are southward bound now, as we head for Florida. Here we find hand- some debonair, Dick Marthy, lolling on a beach with many pretty debutantes near at hand. He is on one of his many extended vacations in the height of -his glory. We visit the winter quarters of the Ringling Brothers Barnum and Bailey Circus and here we see Bob Lonier, giving out with the encouraging yells of 'tCome to the Big Top. We go in to watch the aerialists and soon we recognize Melf-Uwe- Lorensen, who has returned to America from his homeland of Germany and taken up the life of the circus. Gymnastics was too calm for his high spiritedv blood. There is a National Home Economics Convention in Florida and I being in- terested attend a session. Then I see Mary Ann Hostetler, who is a teacher of Home Economics and has brought her youthful girls to it. Dick Kinney, who is atraveling salesman and who can relate many Dagwood- door experiences, We can only hope to meet on the train, as we start west. We arrive in Tucson. Arizona, where We have a short layover and meet Rog J ohnson, who is stepping off the train and is about to leave for Training Camp with the Cleveland Indians. Rog, as many of you know, is a pitcher and has by far out- done the once famous, Babe Ruth. A little farther north in Arizona, we visit a great construction project. It is a bridge that spans the Colorado River and is made of plastic in its newest form. The plans for this were drawn up by Carl Gerigg Don Dravenstott is the Builder. In Utah, we visit the Steiner Brothers dude ranch with its spacious and beau- tiful scenery. Mary Jane Johnson and her husband are here soaking in their health vitamins. We start off on horse back along the old bridle paths and the trail leads us up hill and down. My horse is no easy rider. Ruth! Wake up! What do you think you're doing, riding a horse? , said Ronnie. What?-Well,- I guess I was. We had just passed Frank Carney's shack, where he works on his comic strip 'Leapin' Liana's Lingo. Wasn't it fun, Ronnie? , Ruth said. What? Oh! I guess it was just a dream. But let's take a trip like that some day. When our ship comes in, of course. And she told him of the many adventures in her dream.

Perhaps the greatest was our class play You can't take it with you, directed by Mrs. Prichard, given March 25. Also we will remember receiving our class rings. sponsoring a bake sale and a roller skating party at Madisonburg. To complete the year, the annual Junior-Senior banquet was held at Smithville Inn, April 24. The class has been very active this year, participating in speech, music and athletic activities. We are proud of Carol Miller who won a bronze metal in the Prince of Peace contest. We must also rezognize Bill Buckwalter, Gene Stuckey, Darrel Indermuhle, Jim Singer, Harold Conrad, Fritz Bland, and John Bupp, who appeared on either the Varsity or Reserve squad.

We gave a Welcoming Party to the Freshman Class at the beginning of the year. Or rather it was the old traditional initiation. One of the great events was the arrival of our class sweaters. They were gray with green emblems and are we ever proud to wear them. Our class was represented in school activities including the reserve basket- ball team, speech activities, and music. With the help of our sponsor, Mr. Taylor, we have had a very successful year and hope the next will be just as successful.

True, we were only green little Fresh- men, but after all, wasn't that an improvement over last year when We were lowly eighth graders?

Our first excitement was a Halloween party which was held at Janet Lytle's. Then our interest went for our basketball team. It wasn't the best team, but it was one of the teams that tried to do their best. Those who served on the team were Ward Murnaw, Dick Beaver, Dexter Woods, Gerald Harrison, Charles Fetter, Charles Troyer, Robert Starn, Robert Wirth, and Raymond Hoff. Mr. Krohe was our coach and did a wonderful job. Janet Lytle, Janice Shisler, and Phylis Swisher were our Cheer-leaders.

Mr. Berkey has helped us to solve many problems which faced the Council and we wish to thank him for his help. Each year a president is chosen by the whole student body to preside over the council. This council is made up of twelve members, two representatives from each class. The Council contributes to the welfare of both students and teachers by various projects, and thus the Student Council of Smithville High School has found its place among the functioning organizations within the school. However, the success of the Student Council is dependent upon the interest shown by those within Smithville High School.

Our past year of forensic activities has included such activities as, Prince of Peace, Poetry Reading, Dramatic, Humorus, Oratory, Original Oratory, Extempor- aneous Speaking and Debate. Two of our local winners in t'Prince of Peace went to district competition and one, to the state semi-finals. In the county individual events tournament we had one winner who went to state competition in the oratorical field, placing third in the state, in that field. Due to lack of experience we did not progress as far in this tournament as we hope those will who partici- pate next year. Debate also suffered from lack of experience. Numbered on our calendar this year also is the one-act play. The above items were of the most important activities in our program of Forensic events. We at- tended practice tournaments of various types to help us prepare for the arrival of the larger County tournaments. But it was not all work and no play for the speech club this year for we attend- ed a dramatization of Shakespeare's play, Hamlet Many of our regular monthly meetings were spent with much pleasure as We fearlessly put to use the talent we had gained from our speech work. thirty-three H0 E E 0 0lVlIC We started the year by organizing at a party given by Mrs. Gerber, our ad- visor, in her home.

The scene took place on the campus of a Girls' School on Commencement Day. June and John Ainsworthy's Aunt wants to send Maryida O'Neal to finishing school, but Professor Breakeasy doesn't think she is worthy of such an honor. Mrs. O'Nea1, who does the girls' laundry to send Red to college and to keep Maryida in night school, doesn't want it known that Maryida is Red's sister. After a year has passed and Maryida has surprised everyone with her splendid work during the year, it is found that June and John don't really have an aunt. Maryida cannot go to the Commencement Ball because she has no chaperon. From here on things happen fast. The Professor is overcome with Mrs. O'Neal's beauty, the President forgives John and June and everything is normal once more. forty-one JU IOR- E IOR CHORUS FIRST HUVV: Ode-nkirk, Mi-Clure, J.

It was a great disappointment to Miss Aufrance and all members of the Senior chorus when we Weren't able to give our Christmas Cantata because of the snow. However, since everyone liked the cantata we may use it again next year. The next event was the spring show which we presented along with other musical groups. To end the year, we gave the operetta Ask the Professor . Music is an important activity in school and We all enjoyed being in the chorus, and having a director like Miss Aufrance, Thanks, Miss Aufrance! forty-two FRESH AN-SOPH0lVIORE CHORU FIRST ROW: Falb, Stuckey, Rehm, Ramseyer, Snoddy, Kaufman, Musser, Wanio, Steiner, Bozick, Murphy, Brooks, Buzzard.

They participate in many activities, giving a helping hand to the Junior-Senior chorus whenever it is necessary. Under the direction of Miss Aufrance, the chorus has completed a successful year and will be useful material to help build next year's Junior-Senior chorus. forty-three B D Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday 8th period the sounds coming from the gym are produced by the band. If you would enter the gym, you would probably hear our instructor, Miss Aufrance, saying, Not so loud drums , or Slow down trumpets . We all feel that the hand has played an important part in the school activities this year. The Band members took a trip to Canton at the beginning of the year. At basketball time they played at some of the games and then did a good job of performing at the Spring Show. Thanks a lot, Miss Aufrance, we certainly appreciate your help throughout this year.

That is the question a stranger would ask if he should enter the Smithville High School building during the 8th period on Tuesday and Thursday. The answer to that question is: the music comes from the gym and is made by the orchestra. The public has heard this musical group play at the Junior Class Play, Spring Show. a P. T. A. meeting, and the operetta. The members of the orchestra practiced long and hard hours to be ready for these events and we hope you have appre- ciated their fine work.

Naturally, the five Senior boys will be difficult to replace, but if the ones moving up will work as hard to excel as these boys did, another good season can be had next year. FIRST ROW: Dravenstott, Mr. Berkey, Stuckey. SECOND ROW: Carney, Johnson. THIRD RUVV: Fike, Buchwalter, Schrock. Roger Johnson, the Smithie's tall pivot man, was selected on the first All County Team. He was our regular center for the past three seasons and will be a most difficult player to replace. Frank Carney, the smallest player on the starting five, was also a three year letterman. Frank was a spectacular type of player and his cleverness more than made up for his size. Ronnie Fike, changed from a forward to a guard position this year, developed into a very fine passer and ball handler. He set up many plays for his teammates and was always a constant threat to score himself. Darrell Schrock was our first string guard substitute. Sie was always ready to do his part when called on and often found himself replacing a teammate when the game was in its most exciting moments. Don Dravenstott was our fifth Senior letterman. He was our first string sub- stitute forward. Like Sie, he, too, often found himself in an important spot when a teammate fouled out but Don never left his team mates down. Bill Buchwalter will be moved up next year to replace Roger Johnson at center. His fine playing this year has indicated he will do a good job there. Bill picked a good time to play his greatest game by contributing 19 points when the Smithies defeated Northwestern in the semifinals of the County Tournament. Gene Stuckey, our other Junior letterman, was a very important player on this year's varsity. His coolness in the back court helped to steady his team mates and worry the opponents. We are glad to have Gene and Bill back next year, as they will make a good nucleus to build around. fifty VARSITY BA KETB LL TE M FIR3ST ROW: Fike, Carney, Johnson, Buckwalter, Schrock, Dravenstott. SECOND ROW: Mr. Berkey, Bishop, Singer, Stuckey, Indermuhle, Conrad, Wanio. Basketball is considered an important extra curricular activity at Smithville. It is an important factor in creating school spirit and morals, and at the same time, its income makes possible the entire athletic program of the school. Our varsity squad was made up of five Seniors and five Juniors. The team im- proved steadily during the season which was climaxed by their outstanding play during the tournament.

Burkholder We got the coach- We got the team- We got the pep- We got the steam- Yes, we have all this and a trio of excellent cheerleaders, too. Our cheerlead- ers for the past year were: Mary Burkholder, Ruth Donaldson, Sara Burkholder. Although, they made this cheer to describe the team they were cheering to victory, I think it could well describe the cheerleaders themselves. These three cheerleaders have been doing this task for the last four years. They completed two years together as Reserve Cheerleaders, and then finished their high school life by cheering two years for the Varsity Team as Varsity Cheerleaders. We will always remember them for their fine cheering, but especially We'11 remember the Farewell assembly they gave to the team and the school. All in rhyme, it really set the year off! Thanks, kids, for a good year and grand cheering! fifty-six 3 me ,gf Z 4 Compliments of Compliments of The J. M. smucker co.
