Board member jtekulve posted six wonderful late 1940 and early 1950 pictures. Board member Jack Hinkle has done extensive research with family, friends and books. He has compiled names for most teachers in the picture. There were only two that a name could not be determined. Most of the names used on the picture (in white) are their last names. Alpha A and C has not been determined.

WE COME NOW TO THE SECOND GRADE, PERHAPS THE MOST CHALLENGING ACADEMIC YEAR OF MY LIFE, THANKS TO MRS. EVELYN DEES. SHE IS NOT AMONG THE TEACHERS IN THE COLLECTIVE PHOTOGRAPH I HAVE, SO PERHAPS I HAD HER THE YEAR BEFORE SHE LEFT—SOMEONE SAID, . . . DISMISSED. THEY SHOULD HAVE DONE THIS ONE YEAR EARLIER. NO MATTER; HERE ARE THE I.D.’S AS I HAVE THEM FOR MRS. DEES’ SECOND GRADE CLASS, 1948-1949, McKINLEY SCHOOL. (LEFT TO RIGHT): FIRST ROW: SCOTT BANISTER, WAYNE SANFORD, CAROL LOU WALKER, CONNIE MESHBURGER, SHARON LEE GILLILAND, CHARLES CLARK, SALLY LOU OSTICK, MELVIN HUNTINGTON, DINA BERRY, KARYN GENTH, CHARLES DENNY, AND LESLIE BLUHM. SECOND ROW: MARGARET CUMMINS, SHEILA KAY STEELE, NEDRA GALBRAITH, SHIRLEY HILL, SANDRA ISLEY, NANCY THOMPSON, BARBARA McGINNIS, BEVERLY SUE LAWLESS, PHYLLIS KENT, LOIS JANE WILBUR, DAVID AHLBRAND, AND RONNIE ORMAN THIRD ROW: DONNA KAY DAVIS, LOUELYN BAKER, BILLY SKINNER, WILLIAM T. McANELLY, DAVID ALKA, LOIS WHITTINGTON, AND STUART BROWN. AND, FINALLY, MRS. EVELYN DEES INTERESTING COMMENT ABOUT MELVIN HUNTINGTON WHO LIVED ONE BLOCK FROM ME ON CALIFORNIA ST I WAS NOT AWARE OF THIS STORY JH WAYNE COMMENTS MELVIN HUNTINGTON (SEATING BETWEEN SALLY OSTICK AND DINA BERRY AND WEARING A SHERIFF’S BADGE ON THE WRONG SIDE OF HIS SHIRT) WAS A SAD STORY, AND STILL IS. AS OF LAST YEAR, WHEN MY MOTHER WAS STILL LIVING, WE (MOTHER AND I) WOULD HAVE LUNCH AT McDONALD’S ON THE BY-PASS—‘CAUSE SHE LIKED TO EAT THERE. MELVIN MUST HAVE LIKED EATING THERE, TOO AND MUST HAVE EATEN AT McDONALD’S EVERY DAY, FOR HE WAS ALWAYS THERE WHEN WE WERE. MELVIN WAS A BRIGHT YOUNGSTER WHEN I FIRST MET HIM IN THE FIRST GRADE. ONE DAY, HOWEVER, MRS. HEAVERN CAME INTO THE CLASS ROOM WITH “BAD NEWS.” WHILE RIDING IN THE CAR WITH HIS MOTHER, SHE TOLD US, HIS DOOR CAME OPEN AND MELVIN FELL OUT SUSTAINING A SERIOUS HEAD INJURY. THE BRIGHT YOUNG BOY WAS NO LONGER THE WAY HE HAD BEEN. LAST YEAR WHEN I SPOKE TO HIM HE HAD NO IDEA WHO I WAS, BUT HE ENJOYED TALKING, AND I LISTENED. NOTE THE DATE ON THE BLACKBOARD: FRIDAY, APRIL 29, (1949), AND . . . IT WAS 7:30 AT THE TIME THE PICTURE WAS SCHEDULED TO BE TAKEN. SO MUCH FOR THE MYTH THAT KIDS DON’T FUNCTION WELL AT THAT HOUR OF THE MORNING. I GUESS WE WERE “TOUGHER” IN THOSE DAYS.

THIRD GRADE BY WAYNE SANFORD By the way, you and all others seeing these pictures should take note and appreciate that we of the late ‘40s and throughout the ‘50s still lived in an era where the “young men” were taught to be gentlemen and the “young girls” were ladies. As a result only the boys sat on the floor—never the fairer sex. Now days, when kids gather for mass events, everyone sits on the floor. Just an observation in passing. Here we see Mrs. Etta Dettmer’s Third Grade Class, 1949-1950. I seldom missed a day of school, but this year I had a couple bouts with tonsillitis and missed six days during the second grading period and 7½ during the third. That summer, when school was dismissed, I had my tonsils and adenoids removed at Methodist Hospital in Indianapolis. My reward (besides ice cream which is always promised and never wanted once one swallows the first time following the procedure) was a stack of comic books from my grandfather as tall as I was that kept me busy until I was permitted to be “normal” again. Here are the kids in Mrs. Dettmer’s class: First Row: (Left to row, “seated on the floor like gentlemen”): David Hunt, Jimmy Jackson, Billy Jordon, Steve Burns, Stanley Alis, Wayne Sanford, Melvin Huntington, Frank Tull, and Larry Thomas. (Frank Tull was held back this year, thus (I believe) he graduated in the class of 1960. I think Frank is retired in Arizona now. Second Row: Julia Rees, Glenda Russell, Sandra Isley, Judith Manus, Larry Hurley, Ray McQueen, Dina Berry, Barbara Hurley, and Sally Ostick. (Larry Hurley was one of my favoriteplaymates. I think he lived on Home Avenue, about 22nd, on the east side of the street.) Third Row: Barbara McGinnis, Virginia Turpin, Shirley Hill, Don Butler, Charles Denny, Martha Mundell, Phyllis Kent, Jimmy Rodgers, and Stuart Brown. (Shirley Hill was always very pleasant and quiet. I thought she was the most graceful in manner any girl in grade school. She had lots of freckles and was had a small smile on her face.) Fourth Row: Elizabeth McLain, Marjorie McPeek, Nancy Thompson, David Adler, Louelyn, Baker, Nedra Galbraith, Kenneth Sexton, David Alka, Richard Hardin, and Ken McDermott. (My favorites in this row were Ken McDermott and David Alka. In fact, Dave and I were inseparable—from first grade until high school. He lived very close to McKinley, on the west side of Union Street a couple houses south of 16th Street—not far from Fisher’s Drug Store One will notice that “brownies and cub scouts were dressed in uniforms. Mrs. Detter suggested this and we prevailed. I was a member of Den 1, Pack 52, a cub scout troops sponsored by the “big” Christian Church downtown. Charles (“Chucky”) Shaw’s mother was our “Den Mother”. (I believe they lived west, over in your area, Jack. Chuck would have graduated the same year as your brother Jerry—1958.) Mrs. Dettmer was my second favorite teacher at McKinley—next to John Elliott. She would read to us during what was left of the lunch hour, and I loved the books she chose for us. Great lady!

FOURTH GRADE BY WAYNE SANFORD This is Mrs. Mary B. Harris’s Fourth Grade class, the first of three classes (Fourth, Fifth and Sixth) on the second floor of McKinley School. I will get to the I.D.’ in a moment, but first I would like to share a personal challenge that had a happy ending many years later. Although I generally enjoyed school, I was a consummate “C” student—even got a “C” in history, which was my college major and my very profitable avocation for the greater portion of my life. I got a “C” in social studies, reading, English, . . . even art. And I usually performed at a“C-” level in arithmetic (math) eternally. The only higher grades of “B” and “A” were achieved in writing, spelling and music—at least during the fourth grade. The truth is, I struggled in school—elementary through college. My only good years during all of this time were sixth grade and my senior year in high school; the later years in college were also pretty good. I had a tremendous difficulty “keeping up” with the assigned work. In college I had to read ahead through the summer, where possible, in order to manage the pace. I recall my least favorite teacher at McKinley (Mrs. Dees) once referred to me in passing as a “dummy,” which was inspiring. It wasn’t until after college, three years in the U.S. Army and three years more as a guest lecturer in a variety of historical subject (primarily Civil War history) that I discovered my problem; at 28-years-of-age I was diagnosed as dyslexic. Wow! What relief that was! Suddenly I understood why I couldn’t memorize Oliver Wendell Holmes’ Old Iron Side, and Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address (which I finally mastered after two and one-years of struggle during the 1970s. How lucky children of today are, or at least have a chance to be, compared to kids like me during “olden times” of the past. Miss Bollinger was our art teacher and Miss Judah taught music—each once a week, and I recall. Of the two, Miss Judah was my favorite—inspiring and creative. I have enclosed a photo of me, standing in front of an Indian wigwam in the middle of the Badlands of South Dakota during the summer of 1949. Beside me stands a very old Lakota Sioux Indian who advertised himself as being among the warriors who “took care of” Lt. Col. (brevet major general) George Custer at the Little Big Horn in 1876. If he really was there he had to be 90+. (Note, I refer to the gentleman as a Lakota Sioux Indian and not “something else” which is considered by some to be “Politically Expedient.” The gentleman and I were both Native-Americans. I learned in 2000 after lengthy conversations with both Ojibwa (Chippewa) and Lenape (Delaware) natives that they preferred to be referred to by their native heritage, or as “American-Indians.” Just something I wished to pass along.) At any rate, while having my picture taken with the old warrior, my mother told me I should tell him I knew an “Indian song.” How embarrassing for me! Miss Judah had taught us this so-called “Indian song” during the 1948-1949 school year (sometime), and now, at my mother’s coaxing I was supposed to sing it for the old native warrior who may have killed “General” Custer. I did: “Na-na-ni-na, ha, ha; Na-na-ni-na, ha, ha; Na-na-ni-na, ha, ha; Na-na-ni-na, ha, ha. Ho-o-o-o-o; Ho-o-o-o-o.” The old gentleman nodded, said, “Hum-ph!” which I gathered, meant he wasn’t impressed. He merely patted me on the shoulder with his large, dark leathered hand, then collect the dollar he charged for the photo from my father. Miss Judah was a fine lady. The “kids” in my Fourth Grade class are as follows (left to right): First Row: Billy Walker, Thomas Marshall, Stanley Alis, Scott Banister, Wayne Sanford, Billy Jordan, David Sublette, Charles Denny, and Ray McQueen. Second Row: Phyllis Kent, Nedra Galbraith, Lois Wilbur, Melinda Brougher, Glenna Russell, Sandra Isley, Donna Davis, Phyllis Heavern, Nancy Wolbers, and Karyn Genth. (In previous I.D.’s I may have spelled her name “Karen”. That would be wrong.) Third Row: Dina Berry, Sally Ostick, Beverly Sue Lawless, Shirley Hill, Louelyn Baker, Carol Simmens, Julia Rees, and Martha Mundell. Mrs. Harris is standing beside Martha. (I may have added an “e” to the end Rees before, and that would be wrong.) Fourth Row: Don Butler, “Kenny” McDermott, Scott Wood, Jim Willmotte, Stuart Brown, John David (J. D.) Gugel, Ken Sexton, Tom Stewart, and George Russell. (Scott Wood had jumped a grade to the “Fourth.”) A quick story: In Fourth Grade we studied “Indiana history”, and one day Mrs. Harris had us reenact the “Battle of Tippecanoe. We cub scouts, who had uniforms, wore them and played the role of “soldiers”. In this drama, Tom Stewart depicted the Shawnee chief, Pilot (or Ten-sqúat-a-way). As a soldier, I went for the source of tribal leadership from the get-go, knowing if I killed the chief, the battle would be over. Since, according to history, that was incorrect, I was chastised by the director/producer. Perhaps that’s why she gave me a “C” in history (called social studies in those days).

FIFTH GRADE BY WAYNE SANFORD I would be honored for you to forward any of the e-mails I have sent you to anyone who might find them interesting. After all, that’s the reason for preserving and sharing history of any kind with future generations. That’s what I’ve been doing my entire adult life. That said, I attached a photo of Mrs. Mary W. Morris’s Fifth Grade Class and will following I.D.’s and a few notes. I had wanted to be in Mr. Jones’ class for Fifth Grade, but alas, it was not to be. I remember nothing at all about Mrs. Morris or my fifth grade at McKinley. In my note for the Fourth Grade I said the Sixth Grade and Senior year in high school were my best years academically. Well, guess what? I lied to you! Mrs. Morris, Miss Judah and Miss or Mrs. Bollinger gave me A’s and B’s in EVERYTHING: “B” in reading, “A” in English, “B” in writing, “A” in spelling, “B” in arithmetic (which stuns me completely), “B” in social studies, “B” in art, and “B” in music. Wonder what I did right? I’d tell you if I could remember the fifth grade. I do recall that during this year of 1951-1952, Miss Judah introduced us to the flute-o-phone—a “kind of plastic hybrid recorder thingy” as one person has written. I really liked that, although that “plastic thingy” drove my mother “nuts” when I practiced at home. I do recall that when Judah came in on Friday morning, Morris when out and remained “absent with leave” for the entire musical session. It was the “plastic thingy” that introduced me to instrumental music and that summer my folks bought me an alto saxophone, and I played the saxophone from 1952 until November 1965, when I laid it down and never picked it up again. I played it in the 6th, 7th and 8th grades, in Columbus High School; was in the I.U. Concert Band, Army ROTC Band, Marching 100 at I.U. and two military bands (the 113th Army Band, Fort Knox, Ky. and 392nd Army Band, Fort Lee, Va.). I also played (later) the clarinet, obey, and every form of saxophone there was. ‘Got to blame all of this on Miss Judah, thank you very much! Now for the kids in Mrs. Morris’s class. Left to right as follows: First Row: Ray McQueen, David Alka, Judy Manus, Scott Banister, Leslie Bluhm, Charles Clark, and Carol Simmens. Second Row: John Nading, Ken Wells, Barbara Hurley, Charles Denny, Billy Carpenter, Karyn Genth, Jimmy Rodger, Cynthia Foster, and Stuart Brown. Third Row: Norman Stucker, Billy Walker, Margaret Cummins, Nancy Thompson, Lois Whittington, Marjorie McPeek, and Steve Burns. Fourth Row: Larry Finkle, Bob Noel, Scott Wood, Tom Marshall, George Russell, and John David (J. D.) Gugel. Fifth Row: Don Butler, Ronnie Orman, Shirley Hill, Melinda Brougher, Phyllis Kent, Martha Mundell, Wayne Sanford, and Harley Hardin. On the last row is Mrs. Mary W. Morris, standing all alone.

WHAT ABOUT THE SIXTH GRADE
WAYNE AND I HAVE A REQUEST
DOES ANYONE HAVE THEIR 6TH GRADE CLASS WITH MR JOHN ELLIOTT AS THE TEACHER
All pictures (Grade One through Six) were taken at the same place: At the west door of McKinley School, facing Union Street. They were taken at this site because there were steps up to the door from the street which provided an excellent riser for photo-taking. I do not have a Sixth Grade photo, I believe due to the fact that some pictures were produced in time for distribution before school was dismissed for the summer, while others were not. Mine never showed up. If someone has a Sixth Grade photo of Mr. John Elliott’s class, 1952-1953, I would be “mighty beholdin’” to that person for a company. ‘Saw one once, at the 35th Class Reunion; David Ahlbrand had it. Sadly, David died in September 1998 and the picture was no longer available for copy. ‘Tis all for now. If I had a Sixth Grade class photo, oh, the stories I could tell about that year. That’s all for now. Regards, Wayne
LIKE WAYNE I HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO SEE A CLASS PICTURE WITH MR ELLIOTT AS THE TEACHER
IT WOULD BE A GREAT ADDITION TO THIS VAST COLLECTION OF PICTURES FROM THE PAST

FOR THE LAST FEW DAYS I HAVE BEEN LOOKING AT THE SANBORN MAPS AND BASICALLY I WAS LOOKING AT MY OLD NEIGHBORHOOD .... 2301 - 03 Taylor Brothers Construction Company(TOM'S DAD/UNCLE) The "Taylor Brothers" of the original business were Foss and Luke Taylor, identical twins. When each had married and were raising a family, they split their business into Taylor Lumber and Supply Co. (which Foss ran and ultimately passed on to his two son-in-laws, Bob Curl and Bob Rodgers) and Taylor Brothers Construction Co. (which my grandfather, Luke, ran and passed on to his two sons, Virgil (my Dad) and Dean (my Uncle) Taylor). Virgil attended McKinley. His first grade teacher was Lilian Schmidt. I attended McKinley for kindergarten, 1st, 3rd and 4th grade before going to 5th through 8th at 25th Street in the first wing of what would become the High School. I really didn't want to have the same first grade teacher as my father and was quite relieved when I was assigned to Mrs Heaveren. Tommy Taylor, CHS '60, IU '65, HLS '68
