TO THE CLASS OF 1948:
I congratulate you on your record of achieve-
ment over the past twelve years. The opportunity
to get an education was given to you and you availed
yourselves of that opportunity. Many times you
found the road rough and difficult but you continued
to the end and finished the course.
Today you are ready to leave this institution of
learning and go out to meet the problems of life in
the world’s greater school and as you go you have
our best wishes for your continued success and
happiness in the years that lie ahead.

CLASS HISTORY
Our “School Days” at F.T.K.C. have many pleasant memories. We shall never for-
get our first few days in high school. At initiation the upper-classmen put us through
the ropes and we became full-pledged freshies. Our homeroom teachers were Miss McM-
Collough and Miss Wingert. We acquired many new friends during this year—some from
Kaylor, Bradys Bend, and Petrolia. We shall never forget some of the songs that were
leading the Hit Parade: “Seems Like Old Times”; “Don’t Fence Me In”; and “People
Will Say We’re in Love.” We elected the following officers:
President George Hobaugh
Vice-President Ben Rice
Secretary Elsie Williams
Treasurer George Croyle
When September came around again, we had as our teachers Miss Emrick and Mrs.
Myers. Elsie Williams was elected as one of our Cheerleaders. The songs for this year
were: “In My Arms”; “Sioux City Sue”; and “To Each His Own.” Our class officers for
this year were:
President Ralph Futcher
Vice-President Donna Andre
Secretary Doris Vensel
Treasurer Dora Galassi
Soon we heard the school bells ringing again. Now we were Juniors. This is the year
William Schrecongost joined us and Alvin Klugh left for the Army. Eleanor Bishop was
chosen as our Cheerleader. We had our “Harvest Moon Dance” on November 8. We swell-
ed with pride when we ordered our class rings on September 10. To raise money for our
all-important Junior-Senior Prom and Banquet, we sold Christmas Cards. This year our
team went as far as Irwin and we were certainly proud of them. Songs popular were:
“Five Minutes More”; “Heartaches”; and “Oh! What It Seemed To Be.” Our Officers
were:
President
Vice-President
Secretary
Treasurer
Bob Groves
Helen Buzzard
Joanne Barnhart
Curtis McCollough
We at least have come to our most important year. We entered the halls of F. T. K. C.
as Seniors. Our Senior class play “Ghostly Fingers” was a successful mystery-comedy,
thanks to the direction of Mrs. Myers and Mr. McCullough. At one of our class meetings
we selected our class song—“The Whiffenpoof Song”; our class flower—White Roses;
and our class coirs—Green and White. Name cards, Senior Pictures and Announcements
were the grand finals to our Senior year. Popular tunes of the year were: “How Soon”;
“Beg Your Pardon;” and “Now Is The Hour.” Our officers were:
President Bob Groves
Vice-President Helen Buzzard
Secretary Joanne Barnhart
Treasurer Curtis McCollough
We soon found our happy school days ending—and we knew we were graduates of
the F.T.K.C. class of ’48.

CLASS PROPHECY OF ’48
MY DEAREST DONNA:
It’s been ages since I’ve seen you and it isn’t MISS Andre anymore is it? Well you
have my congratulations—or my sympathies.
Remember the fingerprints the F. B. I. sent me out to trace? The hunt for them
certainly did turn out strangely. Let me tell you about it.
Before I left Washington, D. C., I de-
cided to take one last splurge before start-
ing on my journey to New York. I visited
the Hotel Embassey where the main fea-
ture of the evening was the Ray King’s
Melody Makers Orchestra who was the
former Raymond Klugh. He has as his
soloist Eloise Lane, the former Elsie Wil-
liams. I asked Ray who his business man-
ager was and he said “none other than my
brother Alvin, and there he is right over
there.” The two asked me to stay for the
next number which featured the guest
Clarinet Soloist Joanne Barnhart who
plays with Larry Hames. After her num-
ber I talked to Joanne and found out that
her cousin Bob Groves is swimming in-
structor at the University of Southern
California. After leaving the gang I went
to the United Airlines to purchase my
ticket for New7 York. In getting on the
plane I happened to notice the hostess who
looked very familiar. After a short conver-
sation with her I discovered she was Edna
Brown my former classmate. Before land-
ing Edna told me to be sure to stop in at
the Madam La Salle Beautifying Shoppe—
owned and operated by Mrs. La Salle the
former Oma Jean Miller who has as her
hair styling specialist Doris Vensel.
During my stay in New York I picked
up the New York Times and read where
Kurt Randolph, whom we knew as Curt
McCullough, has just returned from Switz-
erland where he is a skiing instructor. The
sports page edited by Patty Cooper, was
crammed full of pictures of the famous
athletes Bill Schrenkengost, and Ron Rid-
ley who are playing professional basketball
in New York. On the front page of the
Times was a picture of Pennsylvania’s
newly elected governor, James Leadbeat-
er. The financial section stated that stock
in James Jack’s Trucking Co. has risen two
points.
As yea I hadn’t found the missing fin-
gerprints. But I did find the cutest little
restaurant owned by Geraldine McElroy.
From Geraldine I learned that Martha
Shakley has been married for quite some
time and has three children. I also learned
that Edyth Oesterling and Dorothy Young
are nurses at the St. Francis Hospital in
Pittsburgh.
While walking down 5th Avenue later
that night I was very surprised to see
Myron Barger’s name flashing in neon at
the Roxy Theatre. I walked on down the
street and wondered into a tea room which
is jointly owned by Ida Crosby, and Ro-
berta Sutton. From them I learned that
Ed Reese now owns an Automat located on
54th St. He has as his partners, Ben Rice,
Ray Shively, and Lyle Campbell. The next
day I decided to drop in at Ed’s Automat
fo a cup of coffee—who should sit beside
me other than Ellsworth Swartzlander. He
told me he owns a streamline gasoline sta-
tion. He also told me that Lew Garing has
a Bachelor’s Firm which manufactures
Cosmetics.
I then took my leave for London in
search of these fingerprints. While waiting
for my boat I brought a Cosmopolitan and
while glancing through it I noticed an ar-
ticle on interior decorating by Shirley An-
dre, who is now famous in that field.
While on the boat I met the former
Eleanor Bishop and her husband who were
going abroad on their honeymoon. She told
me that Harry Calhoun is now owner of
the Sun Valley Dairy Store and also that
the former Donna Craig is honeymooning
in Hawaii. After getting off the boat I
vras met by Lloyd Shakley who critics say
is one of the ten best dressed men in the
Western Hemisphere. While talking to
Lloyd he told me that Gordon McKinnis is
h°ad mechanic at the Henry Ford Mfg.
Plant in Michigan, where Dean Snow is an
executive. While listening to the radio in
my hotel room I tuned in a short wave
broadcast to Wheeling West Virginia and
heard Gertrude Geibel and her Hillbilly
Jamboree.
Well that is a complete checkup of the
Class of ’48. The fingerprints? I never did
get them! Bye for now.
Sincerely,
HELEN BUZZARD.

AFTERTHOUGHT STAFF
The “Afterthought” Staff of 1948 has given much time, thought, and energy to pub-
lishing this YEARBOOK that will be cherished in the years to come. The Staff was care-
fully elected by the Seniors who were interested. Our Co-Editors, Eleanor Bishop and
Martha Shakley spent much time and effort making the YEARBOOK a success. Edna
Brown handled the money for the book. Curtis McCollough and Dorothy Young worked
vigorously at producing the art. We owe the success of our advertising to Gordon Mc-
Kinnis and his associate, Elise Williams. Our literary editors, Gertrude Geibel, Shirley
Andre, and Ida Crosby handled the job expertly. Patty Cooper and Joanne Barnhart took
charge of the circulation plans. We credit the typing job to Donna Andre, Helen Buzzard,
and Edyth Oesterling. Geraldine McElroy took charge of the Alumni Donor page. Onia
Jean Miller and Lewis Garing succeeded in bringing you a record of the sports. Doris
Vensel submitted the section of music. Other Senior helpers were Lyle Campbell and
Donna Craig. The Staff extends their heartiest thanks to a most capable adviser, Miss
Mackey, who helped make this YEARBOOK a success. We congratulate Mr. Wolfe, on
his splendid job of making the pictures a success. We wish to thank all those who gave
ads and helped in any way in producing the “Afterthought” of ’48.

SENIOR PLAY
- 30 —
SENIOR PLAY
On the night of November 20 at the Fairview Township-Karns City School, 12 sen-
iors were suffering from the disease of stage fright. GHOSTLY FINGERS gave us our
first opportunity to show our ability as actors and actresses.
Every one was either happy or worried when the final curtain came down, happy
because they were no longer suffering from the stage fright or worried about the com-
ments of our huge audience.
We shall always remember our practices, the fun we had and the more serious times
as well.

ATHLETIC COUNCIL
Our third year of functioning as an advisory body is drawing to a close. With another
basketball season behind us, and another banquet yet to be enjoyed, we will soon “fold
our tent like the Arab, and silently steal away.”
Our organization has been extremely fortunite in the personnel selected by the
student body. The work of the faculty members has been lightened by willing and able
students.
Our athletic program at F.T.K.C. is fortunate in having a group of loyal patrons. To
these loyal fans, the council extends its sincere thanks and wishes to express a desire
that athletics at our school may continue to deserve their support.
