'Ztcatony ??e He t e i We would like to take you back, first to 1942—that wonderful year when most of the class of 1960 became active members of the Safety-pin Set of our own V1T community. Do you recognize baby Dennis Abernathy as he enjoys a ride out in the fresh air? It was in 1942 that most of you were sending friends or loved ones off to war, and the nickelodeons were pounding out such tunes as We Did It Before and We Can Do It Again. In 1942, VIT was still Vermont, Ipava, and Table Grove, and the ground on which our lovely building stands became a part of Camp Ellis--a major project which stamped its imprint on the community and certainly had much influence on our future. Now come forward with us six short years to that wonderful year 1948. The war had been over almost three years. You could have all the sugar, butter, and gas you wanted. Cars were beginning to wear shiny chrome again, and come September, the class of 1950 skipped gaily off to school. Here's little Sherill Anderson on way to Vermont Grade School, and little Mike Hulvey on his way to Table Grove, and little Ronnie Horwedel on his way to Ipava. Oh, yes, here comes Mary and her lamb. Song hits of the year, popular with we first graders, were such as All I Want For Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth. Time marches on, so now we take a look at that wonderful year 1956 when we entered high school in the building at Table Grove. Dale Malott was elected president of the class; Jim Bohannon was vice-president; Janet McFadden was secretary and treasurer; and Jack Baily and Johanna Howell became our Student Council representatives. Our class sponsors were Mrs. Clendenny and Mrs. Highes. One of the big events, for us, was Freshman Initiation. I can just see Joan Walton and Kermit Easley now. Scrub hard, kids! To the high and mighty seniors we said You ain't nothin' but a hound-dog. Now we come to that wonderful sophomore year, the year we chose Larry Waters for president; Janet McFadden was secretary and treasurer again; Sue Reneau was vice-president; Margo Rimington was reporter; and Marscha Chenoweth, George Craft, Alcinda Richmond, and Jack Baily were Student Council representatives. Did I say wonderful year?!! That was the year of the Asiatic flu epidemic. No Homecoming celebration! And do you remember scenes such as the manager giving the football boys a pill during games? We all lived, though, and hoped for a more wonderful 1958. The year 1958 was when we moved into our lovely new building. It was with some nostalgia that we left the crowded halls of our old building. How we would miss the flying snowballs and the dashes through the rain when classes passed to lunch. Our officers were Sue Reneau as president, Mike Hulvey as vice-president, Margo Remington as Secretary and treasurer, and Alcinda Richmond and Jim Bohannon as Student Council representatives. Our sponsors were Mr. Montgomery, Mrs. Montgomery, and Mrs. Hughes. Our junior class play, coached by Mrs. Baily, was The Able Miss Cain. Remember Sandy Lee in that well remembered scene as she pushed the wheel barrow for tea service. Now we come to the fall of 1959, that wonderful year that we become SENIORS! We start off the calendar of highlights with Freshman Initiation, planned under the guidance of our sponsors Mr. Vanko, Miss Garver, and Mrs.Hughes. This is the year WE get OUR shoes polished and WE administer green persimmons in large doses. Our president is Bary Fawcett; vice-president is Jim Bohannon; secretary and treasurer is Alcinda Richmond; and Student Council Representatives are Lynne Dunne and Jack Baily. This is the year Miss Brown and Mrs. Hughes convinced us we should attempt a dramatic play, and so we produced the mystery drama, The Red House Mystery. It was well received and the cast enjoyed putting it on under the capable direction of Miss Brown. We will all put May 14, 1960 down in our memory books--the Junior Senior Prom, when the royal court was ruled by Queen Johanna Howell and King Ron Horwedel. A fitting climax to our social life at VIT and that wonderful, wonderful year 1960--OUR Graduation year!! w GEORGE CRAFT went to college and took his degree in agriculture. Upon graduation he went into partnership with STEVE HELLER, JOE PALMER, and RUSSELL P1LCER. Ceorge supplied all the brain power and went out with girls while the other boys worked all day and half the night. JOAN WALTON ended up as everyone expected--a Ward. She married Ronnie Ward after she graduated from high school. She was kept so busy looking after Ronnie and the five little Wards that in desperation she ran away from home and was never heard of again. TED NEHMELMAN joined the Marines and won the Distinguished Service Medal for not re-enlisting after his first enlistment expired. CHARLOTTE HOWELL and KAREN KOPP declared in high school that they were going to be professional bachelorettes but Karen was married six months after graduation and Charlotte got married as soon as Cordy graduated. RON HORWEDEL went to college and upon receiving his degree, went back to V.I.T. where he achieved a lot of fame. It was never certain whether he became famous because he coached the VIT Hornets to become the International Basketball Champions or because he discovered that smoking was helpful to athletes. KAREN TAYLOR got a Job as receptionist for a veterinarian. The blonde bombshell of VIT didn't pick just any vet. She picked put the cutest one in the state and eventually married him. JIM and ALCINDA (RICHMOND) BOHANNON got married after they graduated from college. They both had their dreams come true. Jim had his basketball team with a squad of cheerleaders. Alcinda realized her dream of being a primary teacher by teaching the little Bohannons. JANET McFADDEN went to business school and became a bookkeeper. I don't know if she was very good or not; she worked for DON DERRY, who was the only failure of the class of 60. He was always in trouble with the government for evading income taxes because they couldn't understand that all those nicknames were for Don. He was in and out of prison all his life. SANDY LEE became a medical social worker and traveled around the country-side in her dispensary trailer. LYNNE DUNN became an excellent dental nurse. She spent most of her time making false teeth for Liberace. SHERILL ANDERSON married an interne while she was in Nurses Training and together they set up a clinic where Sherill was kept busy showing patients to the doctor and raising young doctors along with parakeets and dogs. PECCY ACANS became a noted psychiatrist but no one could ever understand her because she never spoke in the same language twice for any patient. LESLIE BELV1LLE did quite well for himself. He joined forces with the Flynnes in more ways than one. When he wasn't repairing Television sets, he was taking care of all the little Bclvilles. DENNIS ABERNATHY rivaled the Rockefellers' fortune. They made their money with Standard Oil and he made his with his Super Ab Rocket Fuel. His slogan was 'You can't be had with Super Ab.' SUE RENEAU got a degree in English from Western and went to England where she taught the British how to speak without an accent. LARRY WATERS became an ag teacher at VIT and upon retiring, went to farming. He was voted the Best Farmer of 1989. MARSCHA CHENOWETH went to the University of Illinois and majored in physics. In two years she knew more than the professors so they let her teach the class. She wrote a thesis for a degree but they could never find a degree for it. She worked at Cape Canaveral and just before she committed suicide she launched the five millionth astrounaut in the five millionth unsuccessful space ship. MARGO RIMING TON received her Bachelor of Law degree from the University of Illinois. She was the corporation attorney for John Creen's Department Store. Her most famous case was the Case of the Stolen Night Carb. JANET HUMMER took ten years to get the Bachelor of Arts Degree that most students get in three or four years. She couldn't break the habit of skipping classes that she picked up in high school. JOHANNA HOWELL went to college to study English but she was the queen of so many dances that she finally gave up the English and became a professional dance queen. MIKE HULVEY became a forest ranger but lost his Job because he didn't follow Smokcy Bear's advice. He forgot to crush out his cigarette one day in late September and started a multi-million dollar forest fire. MAX KESSLER joined the Navy and contrary to popular opinion, he didn't have a girl in every port; he had two or three. DARRYL WATERS won the Nobel Peace Prize by solving the racial problem in the south. He did this by devising colored glasses which made everyone the same shade of gray whether they were black or white. LUCILLE RICHARDSON finally achieved her dream of flying to Germany. She worked in the Waters (Ed) Travel Agency and made regular trips to Germany to check up on things there. The firm finally went bankrupt because she made so many trips to Germany to see Ed. MARY BAIR became a famous Hollywood beautician. She was most noted for her styling of Yul Brynncr's toupee. JAN HAYES and LOIS NOBLE established the internationally famous Noble-Hayes School of Business located In Bcmadotte, Illinois. BOB COOK went to work for the State Department at Ambassador to Timbuktu but resigned that post to run for United States Senator from Illinois. He set the record for a one man filibuster of 137 days. He talked about World War II. JACK BAILY became an international play-boy but that's understandable. He soon owned the MG Company and had a different MG for every girl he dated. They were in the girls' favorite colors. BILL SCHAVONE made a lot of money by selling notes to history students for exams. He had different types for different people. GARY FAWCETT bought up the old Camp Ellis area and began farming on a big scale. He spent his time raising hogs, horses, and little Fawcetts. MICHAEL1NE HARRIS married Carl Jocklsh in June, 1960, and they moved into their trailer. They were the only people in lpava with six trailers. Mickey and Carl enjoyed trailer life so well that instead of moving into a larger house as their family grew, they just bought more trailers. HAROLD ROYER, HUCH THOMAS, and DON BAIR enlisted in the Army after school was out and earned the undying devotion of all draftees when they convinced the Pentagon that it was cheaper to use Instant potato flakes. It took them 25 years of peeling potatoes and crying over onions, however, to do this. NORMAN GU1LLIAMS spent most of his time in the guard house. He enlisted in the Air Force upon graduation from high school and was assigned to driving trucks and that was how he got into trouble. He was always being arrested for flying without a license. He drove the trucks so fast that they took off the ground. JULIA ELLISON was the only woman to win the Indianapolis 500 eight years in a row. She credited her success to the driving she did while In high school. LARRY LAFARY built up his own fleet of long distance hauling trucks. His favorite run has been from Table Grove to Sciota. KERMIT EASLEY spent years trying to become a Master Carpenter. He would get on a Job and Just as his three yean were up, he'd be fired and had to start all over again. Finally he formed his own construction company where he couldn't be fired and eventually became a Master Carpenter.
