SENIORS

Last fall when th© old school bell resumed Its chime,

we the class of 1948 once more gathered together our text-

books and proceeded back t o Monroe High School for the final

lap of our twelve year journey. After going through eleven

years of struggles, we came back prepared for any obstacle

which might attempt to hinder our progress. Now at the end

of this great journey, we face the future wlcrh brains that

are swelling with knowledge.

In this our last year, we have had both ups and downs.

Somehow, the ups have always managed to overpower the downs

and have carried us through with smiles on our faces.

To start the year off with a banf-, we elected a full

force of efficient class officers. For our chief executive

we chose Charles Habegger in the office of president. As

vice-president we chose Chester Hirschy who very ably man-

aged affairs in the absence of Charles. Mildred Schwartz,

who was elected secretary, was kept busy with minutes and

records. Finally, we bestowed upon Vera Yoder, as treasurer,

the headache of keeping the class funds out of the red and

making both ends of the financial problem meet.

^e ^

On November 11. and apain on the 15th, The dramatists of

our class were made famous through their production of a do-

mestic comedy entitled, "Polishing Papa," The cast included

Sidney Smith, a rich sausage manufacturer-Ernest Steury;

Arthur Smith, earer to invest his dad's money-Donald Wittwer;

Jane Smith, Arthur's sister, also possessed of illusions-

Vera Yoder; Mrs. Stevens, housekeeper for Sidney Smith-Mildred

Schwartz; Marie, a maid-Bonnie Christener; Samuel Karman,

an advertisin • solicitor-Chester Hirschy; Dick Brainerd, a

young attorney-Carl Kussbaum; Rose Parker, with whom Arthur

is in love-Rebecca Nussbaum; Re inald Dabney, an English

Lord-Weldon Nussbaum; and Pegpy Sampson, a friend of the

Smiths-Rosanna Sprunger,

Two score less thirty yearsThe Class of '48 have picked careers.Let's look into the crystal ball.And see what has been done by all,

A church--by the road side,A clergman--ho's short and wide;He's now coming through the door:Who could it be? Rev. Becker] Porevermore 1

Now who's this? Oh, its Bonnie;She's now the wife of Johnnie.Could there be a better pairliVho never have a trouble or a care?

Oh, Someone's caught for double parking.Bill Ehrasm on his paper is marking.Can't you see why he's on top?

It's Charlie just as happy as can beWell—he's shouting L. S, M, P. T.On WGN we hear him dailyWith his voice he sings so gaily.

"Mary, what's one plus two?"Now that isn't much of a clue.Ray Kauffman, remember him?He's a school master, tall and slim.

Oh no, she's not a slop.She's modeling in a Juvenile Shop.You'd think she's some years younger;She could be— it's Rosanna Sprunger.

Wow I look at that skater]Let's come back and see her later.Sure she's skilled in other sports;Yes--it's none other than Mildred Schwartz.

Sure, that's Weldon we just saw.He's now working for an in-law.Sellinp- ,c^as to everyone;Oh, he thinks it's so much fun.

e ^JUNIORS

Hop, ski/, and a jump] Last September we juniors trotted

gaily back to school to display our wisdom or perhaps ignorance

would be a better word. After adjusting ourselves to the long

grind we elected class officers as follows: President, Paulin*

Nussbaum; Vice-President, Gladys Zurcher; Secretary, Milton

Kabegrer; and Treasurer, Dick Coppess. Our class sponsor is

Mr. Knauff.

In april we presented the class play "But Fair Tomorrow"

under the direction of Mrs, Neuenschwander.

The twenty-seventh of April was an important day. We

juniors played host to the seniors at the Junior-Senior recep-

tion.

Our class enjoyed several parties during the year.

By the time Kay rolled arround and the report cards made

their last appearance, we were plad to see enough credits to

return as seniors next year.

SOPHOMORE HISTORY

Aftei' Strug-ling through the many hardships of the

Freshman year, we have at last gained the dlstinatlon of

being sophomores. We did nothing startling in our Freshman

year but have become renowned through our excellent behavior

and scholarly abilities.

At the beginninr of our Sophomore year we elected the

following officers President, Doyle Lehman: Vice President,

Virginia Habegser: Secretary, Darleen Yoder: and Treasurer,

Curtis Nussbaum. Miss Miller is our class sponsor, whose

pride and joy is her new car.

The sophomores enraged in some very worthwhile activities

this year includini'- the selling of ma-^azines and Bearkatz

pins.

We enjoyed two class parties this year and are looking

forward to more in the future.

Our second year is now at an end and we look back with

pleasure to those years not altogether spent in throwing

paper wads and writing notes. However, in spite of these

things we look eagerly forward to our next two years in

which old M.H.S. will know Who's Who.

FRESHMEN

We are fortunate in being Freshmen because we envy the

upper classmen and sympathize with ourselves. We are an

exception to most Freshmen because we aren't in the least

"green"! We are thirty-five members in our class.

At the start of the year we elected the following class

officers which proved to be very efficient. Our President is

Donald Kaines; Vice-President, Beverly Lobsiger; Secretary,

Irene Schwartz, Treasurer; Diana Crist. Mr. Byrnes, our

teacher and principal, is our worthy class sponsor.

We participated in a contest with the Sophomores to see

which class could sell the most map:azines. Although the

Sophomores beat us bv a wide marrin it helped raise the

Freshmen class fund.

We have had one class party this year and ti.at was a

skatin-- party at "Si.nset" in Decatur. We are plannlnr to have

another party before school is ou which we are sure will be

as much fun as the first one.

We went on a field trip to the New Sentinel buildinr: in

Fort Wayne. We all enjoyed it very much and found om how

our news-papers, which we read daily, are printed.

Most of us are plonninr to be seniors and graduate from

Monroe High School in "51".

^BASKETBALL

The year of 1947-1948 has not been to successful as far

as winning games has been concerned, but we have mastered

many things that we feel has developed more character than

just winning games. There were five Seniors on the squad:

Weldon Nussbaum, Lee Moser, Chester Hirschy, Paul Nussbaum,

and Charles Habeg,7er,

The team won 8 and lost 14 games for their season's record,

The seconds have accomplished almost the same record as

the first team. They are players that will help the future

teams of Monroe High School. For their season's record the

seconds won 8 games and lost 10.

SOFTBALL

The team as a whole had a food year, they had a lot of

fun in Softball and baseball. They won 6 and lost 2 games

in Softball and won 1 and lost 1 in baseball.

There were six seniors on the regular squad; the rest of

the teaita was mad* up of under classmen. Seniors were as

follows: Bill Ehrsam, Chester Hirschy, Weldon Nussbaum.

The underclassmen were: Claren Lehman, Milton Habegt'er,

Byron Liechty, who are Juniors. Sophomores: Robert Ehrsam,

Doyle Lehman, Glen Rowdon. Freshman: Charles Huffman,

Demetri Hendricks, Don Haines, Gerald Nussbaum.

Here's hopinp that the team has a better season and

more luck in sports next year.
