QiCISS iDI'OPi'1eCy The cycles of time had rolled by since the class of 1947 had completed their preliminary courses in dear old E. H. S. Madame Raija, known to us as Helen Kantak, a famous World-wide fortune teller of San Diego, California,, was aroused by a rap at the door. When answering the door an elderly gentleman entered. He seated him- self across the table from her. He told her that his purpose in being there was to locate an old friend of his from Iowa. All of this time Madame Raija had been combining familiar traits and characteristics. "This is Mr. Vanderstoep, my senior superintendent," she said to herself. After having conversed for awhile Madame Raija discovered that the friend was Mr. Kline, her senior sponsor. Looking at her crystal ball she was able to locate Mr. Kline. He was broadcasting the Rose Bowl game from Pasadena, California. He could see Kenneth Magnuson playing football as he was broadcasting the game between Iowa University and U. C. L. A. Suddenly his face beamed with delight as Kenny made a stirring sixty-three-yard dash for a touchdown which won the game for Iowa. Mr. Vanderstoep was very much interested because Kenneth was a graduate of Ellsworth Schools in the year that he was superintendent there. This interest caused him t-o inquire about the other graduates of this class. Madame Raija, in her quiet manner, began to explain what the Ells- worth seniors of '47 were doing. Dale Magnuson, the cartoon artist, was busy in his for his next cartoon in the 'iChicago Daily Sunf, Hazel Koop had completed her course at Capital City lege in Des Moines and was now a secretary to the United Rubber Company at Tampa, Florida. A After a few minutes of concentration she began to studio preparing Commercial Col- president of the speak again. "I sec Max Appelgate and his orchestra tuning up for their nightly perform- ance at the Stork Club in New York. Further west in this continent she saw VVallace Caruth at the Des Moines air port giving his final speech before taking off for his sena- torial position in Washington. Bonnie Johnson has continued with her 4-H work and is now holding the position as a state 4-H leader. 14 Qloss Proplwecy In a large building on Oak Street, in Denver, Colorado, Darrell Kallem walked into his laboratory to begin research on a new disease that was spreading over Cuba and was threatening many lives in the United States. ' While Dorothy Johnson was in high school she cared for children and now had made it her profession because she had opened her day nursery in Walla Walla, Washington. Our Russian Ambassador Eugene Ballantine was in conference with General Stinosky deciding on world peace. . Kathryn Sogard now owned a very exclusive Salon in Hollywood, Cali- fornia. At the present she was giving Jeannie Darnell a latest hair-do. Bill Pomeroy was bidding farewell to his wife before taking off on his transoontinental flight from New York to San Francisco. Arthur Espeland, wi.th his skilled salesmanship, was found in his pri- vate office giving last minute instructions to his associates before they left on their business tour. In the Black Hills, Darlene Peterson was an executive in a large mail order house that was located there. Stanley Valde was approaching his graduation day from Harvard. After receiving his diploma he would begin practicing law in Augusta, Maine. The results of the Kentucky derby were very surprising because an un- known individual had oome down and won the title against all odds. Madame Raija can see Norma Thompson accepting her award and can hear the cheers from the crowd as she rides her horse, Napoleon, off the race track. Madame Raija lifted her head and told Mr. Vanderstoep that she could see no more in her crystal ball. Startled, Mr. Vanderstoep asked, "What had become of the sixteenth member of the class, Helen Kantakf' With a slight chuckle, Helen stood up and walked across to the window and stood looking out for a moment. She then turned and said nonchalantly, "I am Helen Kantakf' From then on time passed very quickly because there were so many enjoyable happenings of the past to discuss. 15 X I ix 51 Qgig f it ff 1 1 Q 45 , .333 Qioss oem The senior class of '17 Are in number five and eleven. Although most of us know not what welll do When we find out weill sec it through. No doubt some will go to college To gain a little extra knowledge About this world we're going to face To make it a stronger and safer place. Mr. Vanderstoep is our superintendent this year In physics and geometry he makes things clear And Miss Huhn our principal dear Has worked with us throughout the year. Now Mr. Kline we like so well To our class he's been so swell Class sponsor and annual too XVithout him weid know not what to do And as for our music the credit goes T-o Mrs. Marshman who always knows The songs to choose for us to sing, For the contest that's held in the spring. And Mrs. Accurso with her patience so rare In bookkeeping no one else could compare And Miss Holt with her winning smile Has helped us in English all the while. Thereis a clever kid whose name is Eugene But we call him 'i.less" just to be mean. And then there's Stanley with his eyes so brown lVe're very proud that he lives in our town. llazel with her ambition and all Will enter college in the fall. And Wallace Caruth who is quite a lad Will do the farming for his dad. 16 Qlass Poem Our basketball games require pep Into this bracket Dorothy and Helen step. We're grateful for the way they take the lead, When the basketball players are lacking speed. Dale has artistic hands we say Lets hope he continues drawing after May. As for his brother who we call Kenny A finer person there isn't any. And Kathryn with her winning ways Was our president during senior days. And Norma, our basketball manager true Who always knew just what to do. And Bill's alertness is at a high rate He's bound to get someplace in a near future date. And Darrell who is growing so tall Will we know him in the fall. Darlene can really play basketball She makes a good guard even though she's not tall. As for Bonnie who's in the swing She likes to play and also sing. Of Max we hardly know what to say He managed baseball in the best way. Last, but not least, we come to Art Ile's always ready to do his part. We'll say farewell-not good-bye To our good old school Ellsworth High May this dwelling continue to bc A place for our posterity. 17 f is f' SX , Q xxf 1 X I ' 1 S ' N-f 1 in if 13 5 5 E 2 I' , A ,435 Class ARTHUR ESPELAND wills his ability to get along with the teachers to Joan Naglestad.

Kline, Spon- sor of the Senior Class. 18 CICISS Song iTune of "Five Minutes More"J We are leaving you now, As we take our last bow, Though we'd love to remain another year. But the juniors so dear, Will take over next year, And we're sure that we need never fear. U All twelve years we dreamed about our graduation, Now for the problems we must face in our great nation. Though the stairs be many a flight, We will strive to the light, And we hope we will reach our own goal. 19 .Qu I Q 1 Qi! f I Q 4. Class l-lislory There were nineteen already studious students who came to E. H. S. in September in 1935. Naturally, we were all very anxious to begin our "life of learning." Those who began were Stanley Valde, Norma Thompson, Gene Ballantine, Gene Swenson, Richard Staples, Donald Sogard, Frances Olson, Doyle Nelson, Kennie and Dale Magnuson, Darrell Kallem, Bonnie Johnson, Reuben Hinderaker, Donald Freese, Art Espeland, Kenneth Brekke, Dick Brattebo, Betty Berg, Dick Benson. Miss Lauer started us on our learning career. In our second year, Reuben Hinderaker, Donald Frccse and Donald So- gard left, and Pauline NVeaver, Kathryn Sogard, Donald lsvik and Dick Krogstie became new members of our class. Our teacher was now Mil- dred Voga. By the third year we all began to like our teachers and sch-ool. Donald Isvik, Richard Staples, Kenneth Brekke and Betty Berg left us, and Ho- mer Peterson and Don Obe came in. The fourth year we liked even better, although Pauline Weaver, Homer Peterson and Gene Swenson left. We Ulearnedl' this year from Miss Wick. The fifth year we felt "grown upl' going to the second floor of the school house. But we soon got tired of climbing the stairs. Miss Hanson was our teacher. Theola McGonigle joined us and Doyle Nelson left. In the sixth year we felt pretty big. Miss Hanson was again our teacher. This year Dorothy Johnson and Helen Kantak came in. In seventh grade we enjoyed our classes QD. Those who left were Dick Brattebo and Theola McGonigle, while L-ouise Chesling, Donald Holt, Virgil Loux, and Robert Hoverstein became members of our class. Our teacher in the seventh and eighth grades was Mildred Brown. 20 Class History Louise Chesling and Bob Hoverstein left in eighth grade, and Hazel Koop joined us. This was the year when the long awaited eighth grade gradu- ation day came. When entering high school some of us were sorry, because of initia- tion. Anyway, we all survived--but barely! This year we had the big- gest class in high school, with twenty members. New "kids" were Max Appelgate, Wallace Caruth, Theola McGonigle, Bill Gabrielson, Dorothy Gruefe, Darlene Peterson, Leslie Peterson and Bill Pomeroy. This year we lost Dick Krogstie, Dick Benson, Frances Olson, Donald Holt and Gene Ballantine. B In our sophomore year, Dorothy Gruefe and Theola moved, and Bill Schneider came to town. The next year, as juniors, we had our play and the banquet to look for- ward to to encourage us. Virgil, Leslie, and Bill Gabrielson moved away, and Gene Ballantine came back. The name of our play, directed by Miss lluhn, "Everybody's Crazy"--which proved everyone really Was,-and the theme of our banquet was the Gay Nineties. Everyone seemed to en- joy themselves-all during the evening and morning. At the end of our senior year we have sixteen members. They are Max Appelgate, Gene Ballantine, Stanley Valde, Norma Thompson, Wallace Caruth, Kathryn Sogard, Art Espeland, Bill Pomeroy, Bonnie Johnson, Darlene Peterson, Dorothy Johnson, Kenneth Magnuson, Darrell Kallem, Dale Magnuson, Helen Kantak, and Hazel K-oop. We had our pictures taken, skip day, the senior play, and the banquet given to us by the cap- able juniors. Then commencement came and we left our position as seniors for the juniors to fill next year. 21 sf Q ' Es, ' f it 5Ci"IOOi CCliSl'lCiCll' September 2-Fifty-three students and the faculty entered upon the threshold -of another school year.

Seniors, who have played their final game for Ellsworth lligh School are: Arthur Espeland, forward, Kenny Magnuson, center, Stanley Valde, guardg Captain Dale Magnuson, guardg Bill Pomeroy, centerg and Darrell Kallem, guard. Art, Kenny, Stanley and Dale, along with Raymond Danielson and Phil Hemphill, both sophomores, who aternated at a forward position, were our regulars. The other letter-winners, all of whom saw much action during the sea- son, were Orlan Magnuson, guardg George Lawson, guard, both sopho- mores: Harold Zager, forward, a junior, and Gail Sogard, forward, a freshman. These men, along with Robert Hall, Gene Brinton and Bobby Candle, will provide Ellsworth with the makings of another strong team to uphold our past record for good, clean competition. Stanley, with 161 points, led the team in scoring for the season: followed hy Kenny, with 154: Art, 143: Dale, with 116: Phil, 743 and Raymond, 58. This even distribution of scoring is good evidence of team play. All of the hoys were more concerned over the team's welfare than their own glory. The hoys reached their peak during the Sectional tournament at Jewell when they swamped their opponents with a barrage of points, a result of aggrcssiveness and eo-operation. 41 Xxx I I N I. in f X!!

However, we failed to come home with any ratings. Credit must also be given to our accompanist, Joan Naglestad, who has more than done her part in playing for the musical groups, as well as all soloists.
