Mrs. Yinger, Mrs. Meyers, Mrs. Norman Newland. Mrs. Fritz, and Mrs. Bob Newland SENIORS GIRLS GET BEHIND THE SENIOR CLASS Whew! We finally made it! We hit the top notch on the totem pole, and have diplomas to prove it. As low men on the fabled pole, we chose Carol Hicks to lead our class and Philip Schlenker as Vice President. Helen Dick served as Secretary-Treasurer and Stella Stroebel as Service Director. Eloise Maxson represented our class in the Snowball court. Our sophomore year was highlighted by victory in the magazine sales and a considerable increase in our treasury. Co-presidents, Joy Fisher and Philip Schlenker were assisted by Denny Link. Offices of Secretary-Treasurer and Service Director were filled by Chris Oyer and Fred Shuster respectively. Chris Oyer was our Homecoming attendent. Our junior year began with another tied vote in the class presidential election. John Elshire and Bruce Kolter shared the post as chief executives. No. 2 spot was held by Denny Link, with Judy Brading as Secretary-Treasurer and Rod Swonguer as Service Director. Our Jr. class play, “I Was a Teenage Dracula,” was a huge success, as was Raintree Fantasy, our Junior-Senior Prom. Kay Fritz and Jerry Howe were selected for Girl’s and Boy’s State; while Stella Stroebel and Rod Swonguer represented our school at the Music Workshop. Homecoming attendent, Helen Dick, represented our class this year. Arriving at the summit of our high school career, we were confronted by a flurry of activity. Mimicking our federal government, we elected Jack Kennedy as president of the student council. For the officers of our class we chose Bruce Kolter for president and Jerry Howe, Kay Fritz, and Judy Schlenker for the other offices. Kay Fritz was honored as Homecoming Queen for 1962, with Helen Dick and Judy Brading as senior attendents. Again we triumphed by winning the $100 prize in the magazine drive. As our final year draws to a close, we are proud to realize that our class was the first to go completely through the two newest schools, Centennial and Wapakoneta High. Donna Jean Wisneer won the Betty Crocker Homemaking Contest.

OUR ROYALTY Royalty for 1962-63 Autumn Harvest Homecoming were: First Row—Jean Clare Sims, junior; Peg Zwiebel, sophomore. Center- Queen Kay Fritz, senior. Top—Judy Brading, senior; and Helen Dick, senior. A white formal gown and sparkling tiara provided the final touches for the Cinderella reign of Kay Fritz, Homecoming Queen 1962. Kay was elected by popular vote of the student body to reign over the football game with Van Wert and the “Autumn Harvest” Homecoming Dance. Kay was escorted from an open-top convertible to a platform on the football field and crowned by last year’s queen, Patty Davis. The royalty and a near-capacity crowd of spectators watched our mighty Redskins lose the contest 14-16. However spirits were not too low to enjoy the music of the Al Best Band as students danced into the far hours of the night at the Homecoming Dance. 47 Queen Kay acknowledges the admiring glances of her loyal subjects during a never-to-be-forgotten ride around the football field.

This year’s team consisted of mostly sophomores and juniors. Injuries hampered the Redskins throughout the season, which affected their play tremendously; but the Redskins rallied to finish the season with outstanding victories over St. Marys and Celina and ended with the third best defensive record in the Lima area. Fourteen lettermen will return next season to continue where they left off this season. 77 Coach gives Ron Keller instructions Our great cheerleaders at the homecoming pep rally.

The record for the season may not have been one of the best, but the scores on a majority of the games were so close that they might be considered as wins. The team’s spirit throughout the year along with the school’s was very high.
