SENIOR CLASS HISTORY [Continued]

At last we became seniors with twenty-five left. Jane Marker left us and is attending North Central. This year was filled with many activities. The first was the freshman initiation. Each freshman dressed according to the seniors wishes. The party was held in the evening with dancing and refreshments.

Our class officers were chosen as follows:

The spring activities included the Senior Day, Junior-Senior Prom, and the senior play entitled “Honey in the Hive” in which 14 of us participated. It was a huge success. It was directed by Mr. Lizee with the assistance of Mr. Wisdom and Mr. McKay.

The seniors who have spent 12 years together are: Paul Lillengreen, Fanchon Tramm, Joy Halverson, Bob Stuhlmiller, Charles Anderson, Shirley Ensor, Virginia Thiemens, Betty Brommer, and Joan Dickinson.

The senior class was well represented in school activities. The boys were active in football, basketball, and baseball, Carol Lightle was yell leader for 3 years. Bob Stuhlmiller and Harold Rhoads are on the judging team.

PROPHECY

It is now the year 1963, and we see Mr. Wisdom touring the United States in his new Cadillac. We now find him in the drug store in the City of Reardan, sipping a “coke”. Who do you suppose waited on him? Well, none other than the friendly druggist, Charles Anderson. Mr, Wisdom inquired as to what had happened to the rest of the class of “1953”, and this is what he found out.

Bernadine Schmitt is now in Washington, D. C. as head of the National 4-H camp. Her office is on the seventh floor, tenth door to the right in the White House.

Seated behind a big desk in the office of the Davenport Times-Tribune office, we see Betty Brommer busily writing her answers to her daily column entitled “Today’s Problems on Love” and “How to Catch a Man Without Running”.

In the busy industrial section of New York, we find Frank Nonnemacher supervising his car factory, known as “Frank’s Faster Hotrod Factory’. His motto is “Sell the best and wreck the rest.’

Out on the Antarctic Ocean, on a big destroyer named the U.S.S. Patricia Ruth, we find Henry Thompson as a commanding Officers.

We read in the paper where Bob Stuhlmiller has given up: farming, and is now judging bathing beauty contests, He says “These figures are much easier to work with”.
