5-sssfsfssfssfss-sfsfssfs -ss SQGV95 SENIGR CLASS WILL We, the class of 1943, in twenty-seven individual and distinct parts, being about to pass out of this sphere of education, in full possession of a crammed mind, well-trained memory, and almost super-human understanding, do make and publish this, our last will and testament, hereby revoking and making void all former wills or promises by us at any time heretofore made, or mayhap, carelessly spoken, one to another, as the thoughtless wish of an idle hour. Each member of the Senior Class bequeaths to an under-classman or teacher the enumerated possessions. I, Dean Anderson, do bequeath, my ability to have so many feminine admir- ers to my red-headed friend Red Medhurst. I, LaVerne Bailey, do bequeath, my curls to Lenore Powell. I, Dorothy Baker, do bequeath, my journalistic ability to Tadpole. I, Ray Baker, do bequeath, my hi-tops to Danny Flaherty. CHD-tops may be more enduring than Dan'.s heel plates to announce his coming.J I, Dorothy Dahl, do bequeath, my giggle to Coach to be used after each losing game. I, Jane Edwards, do bequeath, my positions in the corners to Dorothy Smith. I, Gilda Fields, do bequeath, my quiet disposition to Wilma Root.

I, Barbara McKelvey, do bequeath, my waistline to Bernadine Brown. I, Arch McKelvie, do bequeath, my job of washing towels and cleaning up the boys' dressing room to anyone Coach thinks qualifies. I, Lorraine Olson, do bequeath, my public speaking ability to my sister, Betty Ann. I, Lois Patterson, do bequeath, my scholastic ability to Evelyn Schwartzkopf.
