Senior History In September of 1948, twelve short years, there were 11 first graders: Nancy Ahlemeier, Kenton Eberhart, Larry Hun¬ ter, Irene Jamieson, Dennis Jones, Roman Krypel, Carol Meyers, Jacqueline McPherson, Raymond Stalbaum, Mitchell Suit, and Virginia Womack. The fall of 1949 found us second graders. There still were 11 of us but we did some switching, Kenton Eberhart and Virginia Womack left us and to take their places were Tom Miller and Anne Vendl. Tom Miller and Anne Vendle didn’t stay very long because they weren ' t with us when we started our third grade year. Our class increased to 13—Alice Owens, Robert Calhoun, Steven Dismore, Edward Meyers, and William Cunningham joined our ranks. Fourth graders we were in 1951 and with this our last year for having Mrs. Hershman as a teacher. Joyce Jones entered our class and Jacqueline McPherson and Stephen Dismore moved away. During the year Nancy Ahlemeier left us to attend school in Valparaiso. The year 1952 found us being fifth graders, we moved down the hall into a new room and the pleasure of having Mr. Meyer as our teacher. Edward Meyers left us and Bill Shepherd joined our class. During the year Alice Owens and William Cunningham moved away. Our room was saddened by the death of a very close friend and classmate Roman Krypel. We started our sixth grade year with only seven students. Bill Shepherd didn’t return to our class. During the year Bar¬ bara Bailey joined our forces and Nancy Ahlemeir returned from Valparaiso. We have moved up another step, into Junior High. There are now 11 of us, William Cunningham returned and Harley Hesh joined our class. During the year William Cunningham moved away and Elsie Risner joined our class. Harley Hesh left and Kenneth Webb and Sonny Shindle joined our eighth grade class. Nine of us graduated from the eighth grade. There are 14 Freshmen. Carol Meyers left us. Karen Smith, Arthur Long, Bruce Marcinak, and Stoney Wireman joined our class and Alice Owens returned. We had many good times together. We only had one change in our Sophomore Class, Eugene Risner joined us from Medaryville. The Junior year arrived and there wasn’t any changes. This May, twelve of us are going to graduate with many school memories.
