STUDENTS TO ENJOY THANKSGIVING VACATION Students in the Lakeland Community School Corporation's schools will enjoy a Thanksgiving vacation next week. Schools will be dismissed at the regular time on Wednesday afternoon and classes will begin again on Monday morning. Milford School News By EARLEEN FISHER Recently I was sauntering down the upper hall of our dear old high school. At the eye-level of an overgrown giraffe the pictures of byegone graduates of Milford high school perched precariously and slightly askew. Deeply influenced by my endeavors to comprehend the symbolism of French writers in senior lit. class, I mused and pondered this thought: Will our lives perch precariously and slightly askew, as our pictures will ten years from today ? This one thought in my rambling mind bred another more realistic: What is going to happen to Milford high school within ten years? After the proposed consolidation solidifies, Milford high school will be abandoned —a perpetual ghost town. What then? The classrooms — names < from another generation carved on the desks, tons of gum adhering to the bottom of chairs; the halls — the squeaky floors, the battered walls; the “Trojanette” and “Trojan Teller” offices — will these be nothing but vague memories? SENIOR OF THE WEEK JACQUELYN SUE EUTSLER Last week Jacquie told me, “I don’t like to see people unhappy so I try to make them happy. I’ll never grow too old to laugh.” To me, this statement sums up Jacquelyn Sue Eutsler. Jacquie is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs, James R. Eutsler of Dewart Lake. She is the exuberant and capable president of the Pep club and a member of the GAA. Jacquie is majoring in English, social studies, and home ec. She plans to go to college after graduation and study to become a speech therapist. Her ambition in life is to teach school and do social work. Her secret ambition is to be a movie actress. Jacquie advises underclassmen: “Keep your nose clean, and set high goals in life.” Her pet peeve is people who gossip, A change she would like made in MHS is the presence of a counselor. A famous person Jacquie would like to be is “my mother — she may not be famous to you, but she is to me.” Given a million dollars, Jacquie would build homes for the aged and the orphaned. Among Jacquie’s favorites are color, blue; sport, ice skating; food, T-bone; book, the Bible; singer, Dion; song, “Sugar Shack;” actor, Rock Hudson; actress, Doris Day; movie, “Pillow Talk;” subject, speech; pastime, listening to the radio and drinking Pepsi. SENIOR NEWS By SALLY KELLER The senior class has two new members: Phyllis Gose and Sandy Zartman from Alex, 0., and Nappanee, respectively. We join in welcoming them to Milford. Ken Beer gave his speech on the Constitution in Mr; Dorsey’s class. Ken has won the county American Legion oratorical contest and will go on to compete in the district. Judging from his speech and the many comments, Ken will be stiff competition. We’re trying to finish up annual sales, and' Earleen can be seen running in circles the whole day long. Most of us are having our names engraved in gold on the cover. We have decided to dedicate the annual to Mrs. Dorothy Willliams and the senior section to the memory of Mary Ruth Overstedt. Friday, Nov. 15, Mr. Beiswanger received a letter from Mrs. Williams addressed to the entire senior class. This was' in answer to Our letter of last month when the seniors (individually) wrote to her on a roll of paper twenty feet long. Our class president, Dick Sharp, chose a planning committee for the senior trip. The members are Terry Beatty, Ken Beer, Earleen Fisher, and Carol Rassi. \ A birthday party was given for Connie Hartter by Earleen. We had quite a time keeping it a secret, but we succeeded (I think.)

I have a feeling the teachers will be glad when the practice sets for bookkeeping are completed. All the questions keep them running. Have you noticed how nice the seniors look in their band and chorus sweaters? They are now adorned with medals and chevrons of various types. Until next week when you’ll hear from us again. Farewell. JUNIOR NEWS By PAM PHEND The best junior class ever is busier than ever! I asked several fellow class members to each name at least one activity we juniors are taking part in, and I came up with the following: We'have been busying ourselves selling candy at noon and at ballgames. . Many junior girls are active in Pep club (Don’t forget the two junior cheerleaders, Sharron and Ginger.) Sevehal of our boys are on the basketball teams and are doing a fine job. A few of us “Spanish-speaking amigos” are member of the Spanish club. . And there are at least a hundred and one more activities we are keeping busy at. So you see, juniors are scattered everywhere! Wherever you look you will be sure to find us! FROM THE SIXTH GRADE Why I Need An Education By FRED HOERR In the year of 1963 education is a vital necessity. A man could hardly feed his family without an education. He could not farm or own a business, figure to pay his bills or taxes. For myself I know education is important, although I sometimes wish it wasn’t. The education I would prefer to have would be an agricultural one, because when I get older I wish to go to Purdue and then farm. Why We Need An Education By BARBARA WILSON I think we all need an education so we can live a better life. You may think you know everything but you don’t. There is always something to learn. For example, you learn how to live, so when you grow up and become mothers and fathers and your children come to you with a problem you can help them solve it. Since you have had the same problems and .needed help too, and your parents helped you. Let’s think about the teachers. They have to know what education means, they have to teach so you will know what it means. So when you ask for a job you can get it because you have had a good education. You have to know how to do arithmetic for everything you do. If you are a store clerk you have to give the right change back, if you are a scientist you have to know what and hdw to put in each formula. If you are a housewife you have to know how to measure flour, sugar, and other things. You have to know how to read. Reading is the most important kind of education there is. You have to learn to read before you can be a store clerk, scientist, and a housewife and many other things involve education. |L READ KITTY | ) AMO eiAMtRID* V-Ty V RVRBY WRKK
