Sensor Class History During our four years of wandering through the halls of B. H. S., before becoming the soaring seniors of 1950, we have participated in numerous activities--sports, homecomlngs, dances, plays, and proms. During the Freshman year, we passed the nhorrorsn of the initia- tion at the hands of the Seniors, and were welcomed into B. H. S. with the traditional reception. During the year we became inter- ested in dramatics, which we have kept through our high school years. We finished the year with a picnic at Chautauqua Park, Boulder. As Sophomores, we decorated the gym for the Freshman Reception. During the year, we enjoyed a theater party in Loveland, a Chili Supper at the home of Doyle Englehardt, and a picnic at the Loveland light plant. The high points of the year were the field trip to Denver in March, and the USophomore Nightu in February. The latter was a group of four one act plays given to benefit the Curtain Fund. The boys had already begun to be nbig stuffu in the field of sports. In our Junior year, we simply slaved to raise enough money to give the seniors a big prom with The 49ers as our theme. Several members of our class took part ln the two Junior-Senior plays, NM1ss Jimmy and He Who Hes1tates. At the end of the year we enjoyed a picnic with the Seniors at the light plant. At last the glorious year has comeg we are homeward bound! We're striving to see that the grades are high enough to get the diplomas for which we have waited so long. We were lavishly enter- tained by the Juniors at the prom, April 29. Members of our class participated in the Junior-Senior plays, Mystery at Midnight' and 'Could Bl . On the morning of May 15, we left on our Senior trip. We went to points of interest in the Pueblo, Colorado Springs and Canon City vicinity. Baccalaureate and Commencement are over, and the end of school life has come. We have had one of the most successful years of any class to leave the halls of Berthoud High School. We will our success to all other classes: also to the seniors of the future go our wishes for their success in B. H. S. Senior Prophecy It's a sunny day on the island of Alcatraz. The date is May 19, 1975. Loud voices and sounds of rev- ee elry come from cell block AAA. The guard shakes her Q? . head in despair. Hurriedly the warden walks to the 0 scene to f1nd'fam1liar faces. He sees instantly that the Class of 50 is enjoying a reunion. The warden is known to the underworld Cthis Class of 'SOJ as Lester the Jester Arnold, who al- REI IBTQEN ways gets his man. The guard is none other than Mrs. its Hanna, who in order to be with her 'favorite class' F ' 'T has resigned her position in the Berthoud Schools and come to the bleak rock. I9

Hostesses of the event are Betty Q? Lenhardt and nM1ll1en Adler. Betty, it .ef ay seems had a fine business, that of making cgfizzlp fd books on flea races, until nLester the , Jestern seemed to think it wasn't within the law. Mildred was the queen of a world- Q,e wide underground movement to gain control Agar gg C of the Vigoro Hair Restorern market. W Q-'s Been here since April, remarks Mrs. ' Hanna. Virginia Gerard and Shirley Oberdick, next door neighbors have been here for quite some time. Shirley was supervisor in the infamous robbery of the uM1tey Mite Reducing Pilln factory. Virginia, old 837485746 is biding her time, thinking over the events of her illustrious career, that of flirting with bus drivers, sometimes delaying a bus five or six hours. While they are talking, in the door appear Willie Kauffman and Reuben Reisbeck, Men of Distinction on the local scene. They are old timers, having been here for 24 years ll months and 50 days. After their graduation in '50, they went to work in the LaSalle Pickle Works, instituted a riot there, and have enjoyed the fellowship in Alcatraz ever since. 'Why 1t's old Pete! He was once here for petty robbery several years ago, wasn't he?' asks Mrs. Hanna. Pete really hit big time though, now. His latest accomplishment is the sale of 'Gold bricks at the bargain price of 32.49 each. He is accompanied by a friend, Ruth Ostermlller. Miss Ostermiller has made a career of embezzeling bank clerks. A saddened figure appears in the doorway. With head bowed, Niel Klehn walks into the cell. Mr. Klehn awaits trial on the third of next month for robbing other men's castles. Following close on his heels is Marjorie Johnson. Marjor1e's name appeared in all the gossip columns a few weeks ago when she was arrested while driving under the influence of Grapette. Admiral Don Conklin, better known as uF1ght1ng Doonu, stalks through the doorway. He is dressed in the Naval Prison garb. Don, it seems went AWOL while serving on the battleship Missouri. Bill Deshler, the famous 'Tex Nix' of professional football, sits forelornly in the corner. His thoughts, no doubt, are on the bribe he accepted in the recent East-West Game. Donna Adams, who many probably have heard of as the gest- est soprano of the Metropolitan opera, joins the happy group. Donna is residing on the 'RockU, because of her demanding that women's suffrage be abolished. She was arrested after having been chained to the White House, for six weeks. 'ee It looks as if the whole class will ggg be here, for who appears now is none other ,RQY Jji than LnVonne Zeller. LaVonne is deposited :17,pr0 'f4,, in the cell by a guard who tells us that E . the young lady has made a habit of cdlect- - -g ing Ford Convertibles. Poor Dean McGa:'t- I ney, better known as 8584769, has a few . ,C L ...Z years yet to serve. His arrest followed 'F' ' his apprehension in Reno, trapped as a bigamist. lu
