 We, the Seniors of the most illustrious, energetic class of 1951, being of sound mind and presence and realizing our nigh school life is nearly over are wondering how, under any circumstances the underclassmen can ever get along without our fascinating presence. Since there is nothing else we can do, we will the following to the poor unfortunates wno are still trudging along in Eagle High School. To Mr. Dufphey, our appreciation of nis nard labor in trying to keep us out of miscnief, four basketball and tnree football players to take the place of tne ’51 Senior boys. To Mr. Moeller, the pleasure of helping the '52 Seniors get the Annual out on time. To Mr. Hunt, a class that can understand Cnemistry and live up to his expectations. To Miss Berg, a Pep Club that doesn’t spend all of its time fighting. To Mi3S Berndt, the joy of pulling some other Senior class through Shakespeare's works. To Mr. Nelson, some music minded students. To the Freshmen, our many headaches over every subject. Be careful, Ike, George, Jim and Lebert, these headaches are large and might get such small boys as you down. We know you Freshmen will appreciate our kind thoughts. To the Sophomores, the Chemistry books. Hope you get more out of them than we did. Now we have left everyone but those Juniors a piece of our will, so rather than forget them, we leave them our sorrows, heart- breaks and hard luck.

 As I was resting in the shade of an evergreen tree in the Canadian forests I began to dream back into my school days. Suddenly a small whirlwind of dust attracted my attention. On the first dust whirl I seem to see the face of my old school chum, Bruce Price. It seems he is doing quite well for himself as he is now in command of the Navy. Slowly fading into another whirl, Bruce's face is re placed by that of Jane Dices'. She has long been married and there are twins at her side. She is the wife of an auditor. On another whirl there is Tom Russell along with Jack Whittaker who are the owners of immense ranches. They are just sitting back and taking life easy. Must have made their living a long time ago. They always were the easy- going type. Glenn Smith is riding a blinding, blustery whirl of dust and is a minister now. He seems perfectly satisfied to seek out the unruly towns and tame them. He turned out to be somewhat of a surprise to his old classmates. On the last tip of the whirlwind, there are Shirley Eaton and Virginia Cramp. They are both in business now. Shirley is running an office and Virginia is a beauty operator in a classy beauty shop. There seems to be a man helping her. Must be Harold Oleson. Oh well, guess I'll be on my way. What became of me? Oh, I'm a retired race track owner on my vacation in the north woods of Quebec, Canada. ---Larry Russell
