On freshman deck were found twenty-six passengers with their ' usual green initiation caps. The class consisted of: Frieda Amble, Ruby Anderson, Roberta Barthelme, Cleo Heimer, Madonna Keifer, g Pauline Kloekner, Pearl Knutson, Angella Miller, Lorraine Quale, Eunice Torgerson, Juletta Winkels, lsabel Wohlers, Terry Ganney, James Krebsbach, Alton Johnson, Wilbur Koloen, Willard Knutson, t James Erckenbrack, Forrest Lane, Vernon Schaefer, Vernon Sorflatem, Martin Prescott, Howard Thompson, Roman Winkels, Laurence G00fGCHf. and William Wiste. With Mr. Allyn Hagen as our class advisor we carried the following-subjects: algebra and business training taught by Mr. A, Johnsong general science by Miss Kraker and Mr. Hageng English, Miss Petersong home economics, Miss Krakerg and agriculture, Mr. Hagen. We also took part in many activities such as glee club, basketball, and football. Leaving our freshman year behind, we scrambled up one,deck higher to take the proud title of sophomores. As a class we got the most enjoyment we could out of everything we undertook. Miss Lois Padelford, English teacher, was our aimiable class advisor on this deck. A In l957, we took another big jump and found ourselves on ,third deck and excitedly holding the title of Junior Class. The big event of our junior year was the junior-senior banquet at the Hotel Austin in Austin, Minnesota. Our class meetings were al- ways a scene of enthusiastic and excited pupilsg but when it came to deciding something really important, we were all together and a true class spirit reigned over all, Mrs. Zimmerman was our class advisor during this year. We took part in various activ- ities other than our school subjects. Another important event of the year was our class play, nLitt1e Womenn, presented on March 51, 1958. After selecting our class rings, we felt prepared to go into our senior year. In 1958 we took our last important step on our voyage and became dignified seniors. With a lot of class spirit we cooperat- ed in publishing a very good Argo and presenting our class play WBeyond,Reasonn. , Mr. Sorknes was our class'adv1sor duringuour senior year. During our four years of high school we formed many friendships that will be deemed precious in years to come. Of the twenty-four pupils that started first grade together in 1927, only nine remain to be graduated together. They are: James Erckenbrack, Alton Johnson, Pearl Knutson, Lorraine Quale, Vernon Sorflaten, Howard Thompson, Eunice Torgerson, Isabel Woh- lers, and William Wiste. ' f Leaving dear old Adams High School behind, we are all going out into this big world extending our most grateful appreciation to our parents and teachers for all the,helpful advice and ser- vice they have given us on our long journey through this insti- tution of knowledge, Adams High School. Our most pleasant and remembered days were spent in school f ' Isabel Wohlers '
