'L l . Qmdaatccw Left - Commencement Exercises of the Class of i957 on June 5. G 4 La ll g l Left - Our Superintendent, Mr. Hetrick, addressed the class with a very appropriate and interesting talk and then pre- sented the class to the Presi- dent of the Board of Education, Mr. Beck, to receive their diplomas. At this point the solemn class is probably reliving old memories. Left - The Senior Class marches out of the school auditorium to the Reces- sional played by the Harris-Elmore Band. At first, the class had some problems about march- ing, but everything went very well on Graduation Night. Left - Rev. Bates of Elmore delivered the lnvocation at the beginning of the service. Our guest speaker, Dr. Clyde Hissong, inspired the class with his speech based on the wrecking bar. The Benediction was delivered by Rev. Schmidt of Elmore.

79 As soon as we can recover from this heavy blow, we venture into the main part of the school. As we enter the lower hall, a blood curdling scream greets us. We run down the hall and find in a small room, Danny Wood, who was given detention his last day of school. Under the new administration, headed by Mr. Herbert Katko, Danny's release date was postponed until this spring. In the room with Danny is a henchman of Katko's, a man who calls himself Mr. Clarence Egert. This fellow shares the Katdo man's ioy in watching students on deten- tion suffer. From N le Kardatzke, who is expecting to graduate this spring, we learn that Danny is to be released into the custody of Shirley S2-lu, who runs a day nursery. This place is hoped to settle Danny's shattered nerves. Nyle hopes to secure a position at the Elmore bowling alley upon graduating. After this shocking bit of education, we find it necessary to go outside for some fresh air. ,As we are cleared by the guards at the outside gate we see a crowd milling around a small platform on which a man is standing giving a fiery speech. We elbow our way through the crowd and find that the speech-maker is our fellow class- mate, John Votaw. John is an avid vegetarian and is now giving a well demonstrated speech on the evils of eatinggzt. John reminds us to be sure to stop at his barbecue before leaving Elmore. The crowd is growing fast so we iump in our car and start for the downtown area again. On the way down, we see that we are low on gas, so we stop at a prosperous looking gas station. While our tank is being filled, we notice one of our classmates inside. We go inside and find Trinidad Cuevas, manager of the station. We learn from one of the attendants that Trinidad is an expert at changing the tires on army tanks. Right next door is Nanc Haar's fender and body repair shop. lt is rumored that she works in collaboration with ex-driver train- ing teacher, Mr. Bob Netz. People say he is providing her with business. Our tank is now full and we pull out. After traveling a short distance down the street, we see a huge crowd gathering around the auction stand. In the center of the crowd is the world-famous auctioneer, Carol Fondess . Carol once got a farmer so confused that he sold his entire estate for a large family economy sizg?cracker iacks. Here, we encounter two more of our classmates. They are the farmer, Robert Waterman, who has a huge poultry ranch entirely devoted to being a refuge for the remaining world population of albatrosses. The other classmate involved was Linden Damschroder. He was the prize in the box of cracker jacks. At the auction, we see Janet Kuhlman. She tells us that she studied in universities all over the world for T7 years and finally decided to become a housewife. She is very successful, but does not claim to be a success- ful as Lisa Sparkes, who has six little sparks who, she says, often provide her with a very hot time. Ncxthe crowd begins to shift and we see a parade of soldiers coming down the street. We run out and see that the rather mean looking drill sergeant with the bull whip is our classmate .2-dy Owen. When Judy spots us she gives us a cold glare and then gives us the following advice: Discipline is the best policy. As we walk a few blocks down the street, we see the new Elmore Museum of Anything That Might Attract Attention. The plaque on the front says the building was sponsored by the great painter, -LA2Schlievert. Lyle has done some rather famous paintings including Dr. Charles Rymer's Mother's Barn, used primarily by Dr. Rymers for the storage of tardy slips he has required of students. This has become quite a hobby for habitl with Dr. Rymers. All guests to the estate are shown through the Tardy Slip Museum. All the slips have an interesting his- tory. Back to the museum. We walked around in Lyle's museum for some time before we came to the room where Marilyn Nissen is giving lessons. Marilyn has become a successful ventriloquist and is hoping to have some successful students such as Catherine Anstead and Ray Goetschius have been. In the next room, we find Carol Guth, a color technician and artist. Carol was the artist who developed the other shade of black. At the end of the hall, we find Shirley Griffin, delivering a lecture on the trials and tribulations of the Siberian muck-ox louse. ln an isolated room, we find Karen Hetrick hard at work writing a book to be titled Ivanhoe. This is expec- ted to be a great seller. As we are leaving the museum we happen to bump into John Morris, who has been ianitor of the place for the past 20 years. We stop to have a chat with him and he agrees with us that the Senior Class of '57 has been quite a successful class. 22
