The Senior Class OF THE VERSAILLES EXEMPTED VILLAGE SCHOOL PRESENTS The Versailles of 1956 VERSAILLES, OHIO VOLUME 31 THE LAND WHERE HATE SHOULD DIE This is the land where hate should die— No feuds of faith, no spleen of race, No darkly brooding fear should try Beneath our flag to find a place. Lo! every people here has sent Its sons to answer freedom’s call; Their lifeblood is the strong cement That builds and binds the nation’s wall. This is the land where hate should die— Tho dear to me my faith and shrine I serve my country well when I Respect beliefs that are not mine. He little loves his land who’d cast Upon his neighbor’s word a doubt. Or cite the wrongs of ages past From present rights to bar him out. This is the land where hate should die— This is the land where strife should cease. Where foul, suspicious fear should fly Before our flag of light and peace. Then let us purge from poisoned thought That service to the state we give, And so be worthy as we ought Of this great land in which we live! —Denis A. McCarthy. —2— THE AMERICAN SCHOOL From the very beginning of man’s struggle for knowledge, self-respect, and the recognition of his inalienable rights, the school has been his greatest ally. We refer to the school as “common” because it belongs to us all. It is ourselves working together to meet a universal need. But it is a most uncommon institution. It is relatively new. It is democracy’s greatest gift to civilization. Throughout the world, among upward struggling peoples, wherever parents share in the aspirations of their children, the American common school is being copied. —3— TABLE OF CONTENTS Title Page 1 Introduction 2 Table of Contents 4 Class Will 6 Seniors 7 Can You Imagine 19 Class Prophecy 20 Baccalaureate 22 Commencement 23 Classes 27 Grades 39 Activities 45 Sports 59 Faculty 65 Alumni 75 Advertisers 81 4 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS We extend our sincere appreciation: To Miller Studio, and Osborne Studios, Inc. for their interest and help in securing good pictures.

Until the day of graduation we are considered only children, but from that day forward we are adults to the rest of the world. We can go forward in life, unafraid, because of our high school education. This year seventy-nine seniors will take their place in the world. Some of the events which occurred during our senior year were: Election of officers— President Ken Booher Vice President Bob Turpen Secretary Peg Pequignot Treasurer Hazel Marker Student Senate Nancy Barga and We are real proud of the senior boys who participated in the sports activities. They did a real good job. Connie Clark and Nancy Barga were chosen as cheerleaders. We were honored to have Miriam Ashman as Homecoming Queen this year. Connie Clark, Mary Meyers, Hazel Marker and Donna Rhoades were in the queen’s court, and Nancy Barga was senior representative. Our class has been well represented in various activities such as band and school clubs and organizations. The day of graduating is upon us, a day which many have been awaiting for sometime. As anxious as we are to graduate, we know we are leaving something behind us, which no amount of fame or fortune can ever regain for us. Roger Petitjean —Nancy Barga.

D. and we four, Kay, Janie, Cynthia and Judy, members of the Versailles High School graduating class of 1956, have returned to our old alma mater for a reunion with our classmates. Since we arrived early, we decided to lunch together in the new Hotel a la Tigres that was buildt with the money donated by the successful class of ’56. After lunch, we reminisced over our school days and recalled many of the hopes and ambitions of our classmates. Then we noted all the actual achievements which we had accomplished. Here are our findings: Tom Apple has developed a new breed of noiseless turkeys. Miriam Ashman has now retired and given up her title of Miss Universe, which she has held for the past 40 years. Part of her success was due to her capable manager, Linus Mescher. Nancy Barga and Marilyn Dapore are joint owners in a Vita-Health Bar which specializes in atomic capsules guaranteed to cure your liver and foot ailments. By the way, they’re very good for hangovers, too. Roy Baucom and his wife, the former Peg Pequignot, have been working patiently to raise a football team of their own—but so far they have only succeeded in getting a baseball team. Herb Bayman, Fred Bohman and Dick Christian are now professionals at making out income tax form 1040, although they are still trying to figure out Mr. Wiebrecht’s explanation of this subject. Carol Berger-Long has succeeded in raising a little air force of her own. Her grandchildren are now space patrolmen. Guess it runs in the family. Dick Berger and Fred Deagle are owners of the Pluto or Bust gas station. Chuck Young, though still trying to pass English IV, is their very successful helicopter mechanic. Kenny Booher has taken over Mr. Rhoade’s position as time keeper. Kenny recently retired as janitor of VHS. Ivan Brenneman and Billy Fisher have been singing on the Midwestern Hayride for the last 20 years. They recently turned down an offer to join the Metropolitan Opera to stay on the hayride. Caroline Broerman has invented a new cigarette holder, devised for people under six feet only. Jim Coffield is interpreting menus in his new French restaurant called Vive la Coffield. Now being featured in his floor show is Pat Gross and her Dixie Doodle Five. An act held over for the last two weeks is Fifi and her Fans. Fife was better known to us as Phyllis Simons. Bob Copeland has drifted out west—of Mars, that is. We hear he has been successful as the first prospector on that part of the planet. Shirley Derr has been successful in her life’s work to get enough names on her petition to obtain street lights for Webster. Bernard Drees has developed a new Vitamin X, which is being used for—well, actually, there’s no use for it yet, but he’s still hoping. Myron Fast has become widely known as the famous man who developed a formula for growing a mustache over night. Carol Fritz is the chief lady surgeon in the new hospital at North Star. Incidentally, this town has grown in leaps and bounds. The population is now 200. This figure has been increased with the help of Amelia George, Betty Huber and Suzanne Subler, who are raising typical American juveniles. Frenchtown is competing with North Star, and with the help of Doris Gigandet and Ruth Hemmelgarn, they are running a close second. Leonard Goubeaux has finally made the last payment on the popcorn machine at Crystal Ball. We understand that Joann Hartzell now owns the Crystal Ball with John Voisard as her chief bouncer. They seem to still be having a thriving business. —20— Dan Hart is now head speaker at the annual Liar’s Club Meeting. He has also been very successful in revising his old song, “See You Later, Alligator.” The teen-agers are wild about it. Don Hemmelgarn and Joe Berger are still working to get Yorkshire on the map. And are doing a good job of it by building a factory which puts ov.Hnkless pens for thoughtless people. Donna Horner and Lavon Wright’s wedding will be an event that will take place at our fiftieth reunion. This will mark the end of the world’s longest courtship. Glenn Jenkins is still living like a millionaire from the proceeds of his book that has been a best seller for the last ten years. The title of the book is “How to Get Along With Women.” Mat Kelch is still teasing the girls and has even developed a remote controlled wav to stack lockers. Shirley Keller developed a new formula called Keller’s Kalorie Killer which guarantees that you’ll lose weight without dieting. Ivo Knapke is now farming the entire Darke County but he wishes to move to a more hilly country-side because he still believes that hillsides provide more land to cultivate. Marvin Keiser, the present Secretary of Agriculture, is helping Ivo prove his theory. Carl Langenkamp is teaching bookkeeping at VHS. Oh, yes, he was the onlv one who actually passed this subject in ’56. Cynthia Loxley is a very successful guidance councellor at UCP (University of Confused People). Hazel Marker-Nickol and Jean Miller are great coin collectors—by some strange coincidence, they’re almost all “nickols”. Jean has also written a book entitled “Blue Hearts and Pink Elephants”. Joanne Matthieu has become a world traveler since her marriage to a famous engineer. She is now living in Timbuktu. Ron McClurg has been a prominent lawyer and is thinking seriously of running for president in the next election. His worthy opponent will probably be Prosperin’ Paul Parmenter. Gerhart Mekelburg has been a very successful scientist. He’s keeping right up with Einstein—he plans to leave his brain for scientific research. Mary Meyers is the head nurse at St. Elizabeth Hospital. Her grandchildren have all attended Randolph High School. Carl Neargarder is the head of the science department at Russia College of Knowledge. All of his children graduated from this immortal institute. Shirley Oliver is a public relations officer who is in charge of keeping friendly relationship with Bradford, a new suburb of Versailles. Larry Pearrell, famously known as ‘Alfred Lord Pearrell’, is now retiring as the champion wrestler of the universe. His very capable manager and instructor was Bob Poly. The closest Pearrell ever came to losing the title was in a match with ‘Gallopin’ Gerald Swallow’. Ginny Pequignot is now designing clothes and has developed the new “G” look—one look and everybody says “Gee”. Roger Petitjean and Harold Pohl are owners of the Versailles Atoms For Peace Power Plant—makers of power units for your farm, home, and industry. Jane Phelan has become Speaker of the House and has taken a more common name—Smith. Judy Phelan has been successful in training all her children to be swimmers. Incidently, Judy’s granddaughter was the first to swim the Atlantic. Janet Pitsenbarger manufactures ‘Pitsenbarger’s Pickled Potatoes’, which have taken the place of potato chips.

Later we welcomed Dick Lauber, but during the year Terry Creadle, Dick Gigandet, Ed Gigandet, Dave Hughes and Paul Stephan withdrew. We ordered our class rings during our Sophomore year and received them in October with great joy. The Junior class play “Mother is a Freshman” was well received. It was ably directed by Miss Eastman. The class of ’57 is well represented in all school activities, especially sports. Virginia Frantz represented the Juniors as attendant to the Homecoming Queen and her Court, and Lucille McClure as a cheerleader. Our adviser is Mrs. Young who directs our activities.

R., local Latin Club with thirty-two members, enjoyed a weiner roast and stunts which “patricians” inflicted upon thirteen more or less willing “slaves”. By the time of the masquerade party in October, the club had affiliated with the National Junior Classical League. In order to insure that Latin was not neglected the members visited the Delphic Oracle and received mysterious answers to their questions about the future. November marked “manumission day” for slaves who were initiated into the group with the formal J. C. L. ceremony. All club members received their silver J. C. L. pins. December found the Latin pupils enjoying a Saturnalia party at which Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Moore showed slides of many places which they visited in Italy and France. There was a gift exchange and lunch, and, again in keeping with J. C. L. efforts, familiar Christmas carols were sung in Latin. Because of semester examinations there was no meeting in January. However the Club plans a guest meeting, a trip to the Dayton Art Museum, Observance of Latin Week, and attendance at the State Junior Classical League Convention held in Columbus in April. —47— FUTURE FARMERS OF AMERICA First row: Eddie Trittschuh, John Armstrong, Carl Langenkamp, Roy Baucom, Dick Christian, Carl Voisinet, Mr. Lconhart. adviser; Second row: John Marshal.

Farm boys are in training today for they are the farmers of tomorrow. The F. F. A. is the social part of the Vocational Agriculture program. Each boy who takes Vocational Agriculture can join the F. F. A. organization. There are forty-four members in the Versailles Chapter of Future Farmers of America. We are proud of our past year of livestock judging. The Versailles Chapter won first in general livestock, second in district, in General Livestock, and third in Dairy. The Chapter also won two gold awards in Public Speaking and a gold in the district Parliamentary Procedure contest. Each summer some boys from the Versailles Chapter go to the F. F. A. camp. This camp is located on Leesville Lake, which is about 250 miles northeast of Versailles. The boys all enjoyed the trip, sports and water activities as well as educational training. Every month the F. F. A. tries to have a square dance or a skating party. The students all have a good time and we hope to continue them in the future.

SENIOR HIGH CHORUS Early in the year, Senior High Chorus work was directed toward voice control and enunciation, principles of music notation, and experience in singing three and four part harmony. December work resulted in a Senior High assembly, using well known Christmas music done with various combinations of voices and arrangements. The spring operetta, “The Forest Prince” is based on many of the major works of Tschaikowsky. Our aim is to gain further knowledge of the life of the composer, his work and to give an enjoyable public performance. —53— 1955 HOMECOMING —54— 1955 HOMECOMING On November 10, 1955 Versailles met Piqua Catholic for the Annual Homecoming game.

CAFE Versailles BARNEY'S BARBER SHOP Versailles —105— OUR GOLD RATING PARLIAMENTARY PROCEDURE TEAM Class Prophecy (continued from Page 21) Donna Rhoades is head model at Carolyn’s Keen Clothing Shop, makers of Cute Clothes for College Kids. The head buyer for this store is of course, Carolyn Trittschuh. Lucille Schrader is the star of the “I Love Lucy” show which is now seen world wide. Oh yes, Lucille got married .... Bud Schultz has bought out the Schlitz brewing company and is selling, instead, Schultz Root Beer. This goes very well with Pickled Potatoes. Dick Subler is the champion salesman of the super-sonic Ford helicopters. The helicopter is the successor of the Ford car, a thing of the past. Jack Subler’s children all have freckles, but believe it or not, they don’t blush. Wanda Seman-Whittaker is still happily married. Most of her children were married at a young age—and very happy. Marlene Swallow has developed a cute li’l old southern accent. Phyllis Treon is the business manager of the Versaillese Frozen Food Center. In her spare time, she plays in the Dixie Doodle Five. Kay Trittschuh was very successful in college. She majored in education and received her Mrs. degree. Bob Turpen is the highest paid bookkeeper in the U. S. On the side, he is the chief bookie at the Three Trees Race Track, located near Skunk Hollow. Carl Voisinet is head of the WFL (World Federation of Labor). Right now this union is trying to have their wages tripled. JoAnn Voisinet manages the Versailles Policy. She does all her own printing—by hand.
