Motto- Onward Ever, Backward Never Colors- Ice Blue And White Flower- White Rose Advisor- Mr. Masten Flower- White Rose Advisor- Mr. Masten 4 As j 15Grumblers I wonder why they picked us for class grumblers. After all we're the angels of the class, and have never done any griping before. I don't see why Mr. Masten doesn't like his nickname Bobby . Why can't Mr. Prediger get to school in the morning. He never gives us an excuse for being late. We can't understand why we, the Seniors, never make any money on parties when we try so hard to do so. Can't the lower classmen understand and co-operate??? Why couldn't four Senior boys finish making the fudge they started in the home economics room..? Mr. Momany just threw it out any way. Why are the teachers allowed to smoke in the boiler room and the students can't. I think the janitors by this time ought to know how to regulate the heat on that new boiler. I don't see why the Seniors can't have a sound proof room so when we have a class meeting we won't distrub other classes. I believe they should have a phone booth in the hall so that we wouldn't have to tell anyone our business. As long as students have to come to school I don't see why the teachers have to lock the doors when we're only a minute late for class. I don't see why Mrs. Carter hollers so loud when she wants us boys to pay attention we're not deaf. We don't see why Mrs. Ferris picks on Bob Peever all the time in her classes, he's a nice boy. (ha ha) I wonder why Eagles watch their nest. Huh, Mr. Prediger. I don't see why we have to pick up paper after school because that's why we have janitors. I don't see why Mr. Masten's always griping about the Seniors, after all, he is our sponsor. I don't see why we Seniors can't make arrangements to come at ten o'clock so we'll be able to catch up on our sleep. It seems to me the lowerclassmen could leave the Seniors enough hangers for their coats. I wonder why the study halls have to be quiet, the commercial classes don't. I don't see why Mr. Prediger wouldn't change the seats in sociology class this second semester. Maybe he thought we would cheat. It isn’t right for the Senior girls to have to share their pies with the Sophomore girls after all, they only made the crust. 1 don't see why the underclassmen get to sell pop and potato chips at the basketball games. They ought to take it into consideration that the Seniors have a Senior trip to plan on.

Stan's kitchen she's a perfect fit. Ronnie Keigley is still on the farm, and Evelyn is doing the plowing cause he broke his arm. To do things Eugene Allerton never gets around, we hear he hasn't yet returned his cap and gown. Mary Enders we know will be, first woman candidate for presidency. Ken Leach strums a guitar, he should be in Hawaii, but that's too far! Margaret Zuhl has changed her name, her husband now has both fortune and fame. Don Hauht stays at home always, listening to Korea on the radio waves. Arbeautus Hartwlg Just sits on a bench, if she had a piano, this rhyme would make sense. Oscar Cells is still horsing around, but not as Ringling Brother's clown. As Truman's successor Mr. Hasten exults, when he lays down the law, he gets results. And then there's June Waldo, whose wedding gown her nimble fingers sew. Bob Peever still isn't doing a thing, guess he's still having his bachelor fling. If Oval Street competition to Senator Vandenburg gives, he'll be in the Air Force as long as he lives. A hunting every year Ron Beilman goes, he never gets a buck, but he gets the does. Floyd Slatton has struck it rich has his own drug store, we hear he's lent money to the class of '51. As a farmer Stan Zech likes a sunny day because then he can go out and haul in his hay. Kay Landon is an actress in many plays and she says this occupation really pays. Shirley Grant is a model for Esquire if you want a sub. send tier a wire. If you want to see a real dairy visit Bud Harner, he's done well vs a Dairy farmer. Marjorie Tollas is now teaching at Eau Claire, she's due for a vacation but she don't know where. In a great big office in the town erf Niles, sits Jane Howard with her typewriter and files. Rosalind Gustafson, who's intell- igence is high above, is now a secretary for Mr. Love. Stanley Dohm is, you can't guess where, Uncle Sam has him flying through the Air. In a vine covered cottage on Vine and Peach Tree., lives Jean Waldo with her children three. Roy Peachey who has specialized in art, paints pictures that reach straight to your heart. Mrs. Ferris who in 1951 had charge of the commercial room, is'now pushing an old homemade broom. As a cook Shirley Repar takes the cake, She’s known for the pies she can bake. Jean Waldo June Waldo Margaret Zuhl 2122UndeR GRflds24BACK ROW: MIDDLE ROV: FRONT ROW: Juniors H. Stockman, C.

It seems like home to sit in here, And while away the time, And listen to the murmur of; Children, For a goal they work to find. It seems only as yesterday, When we came up your hall, To slumber through and say ado, To you—one and all. We've been treated with courtesy, And guided by the hand, Of honest looking fellows, And the best teachers of the land. Although we're growing up now, We can look back down the trail, And see the happy times we’ve had, That now do not prevail, We've wanted to graduate, For many years that's true, But we didn't know we'd have to say. Our last good bye to you. We have been in loneliness, And saddness we do know, But the saddest slogan we've found yet Is Onward you must go! 44 Ken Leach futocjiuflk: 47DOC'S REXALL DRUGS FOR YOUR PLEASURE CONVENIENCE GOOD HEALTH AND HAPPINESSWITH BEST WISHES TO THE GRADUATING CLASS FROM THE EAU CLAIRE PACKING CO.
