— 1957 ORACLE— FOREWORD This, the 1956-57 Oracle, marks the 21st anniversary of the publication. We, the staff, have endeavored to make this edition a lasting record of the many treasured moments of the past year. In this yearbook we have tried to present, through pictures and carefully chosen words, the sad, joyful, and humorous events of the past school year. Countless hours of planning, writing, and assembling have been spent in order that we might bring you this Oracle. We are honored that we were your staff. We hope you will treasure this book, and in later years let it be a reminder of the wonderful days spent at Hartley High School. — The Staff THE SCHOOL BOARD Seated — Ed Popp, Virgil Treimer, Dr. J.

SENIOR CLASS HISTORY On August 28, 1944, twenty little angels toddled into the kindergarten room of the Hartley School. We were greeted by Miss Dorothy Lee, who was kept busy trying to keep us out of mischief. The class included Cheryl Baird, Donald Bethel, Margo Brinkert, Frederic Brummer, Jean Fechter, Patricia Foley, JoAnn Hesse, Vance Kel- ley, Marlys Klinker, Lois Linder, Barbara Olhausen, Marcheta Olhausen, Roger Ol- hausen, Robert Peters, Jerry Watts, Don Weber, Jerry Williams, Gerald Nissen, Pat Dillehay, and Pat Fanning. During this year Cheryl Baird transferred to May City, Patricia Dillehay transferred to Whitehorse, Canada, and Jerry Williams transferred to Sanborn. On September 3, 1945, seventeen of the original members started on their sec- ond year of school. Miss Onken did her best to increase our intelligence by teaching us the A-B-C’s. Jeanette Boetel, David Roth, Thais Triplett, Joe Wille, Rodney Krebs. James Heckert, Larry Wills, and Arvin Schumann joined our class; and we lost Rod- ney Krebs. lJage Fourteen — 1957 ORACLE— CLASS HISTORY (Continued) We started our second grade with twenty-eight pupils. Miss Lucas was our teacher this year. We were joined by Patricia Gowan, Sharon Lux, Glenda Meyer, Bob Anderson, Garry Mussmann, and Larry McCarty. Freddy Brummer transferred to Melvin the second semester. Miss Hiubregtse greeted us as we invaded the third grade. We were joined this year by Peggy Bryant, Irene Heuer, Mary Jo Ostrom, Harland Cummings, Dean Kru- ger and Lester Muilenburg. 7 his year we lost Glenda Meyer. Irene Heuer and Pat banning. We were greeted by Miss Robinet in our fourth year. We now numbered twenty-seven. Harland Cummings left and Marlys Gruhn joined us this year. Twenty-five pupils answered to roll call in the fifth grade with Miss Meyer as our teacher. This year we lost Vance Kelley who was promoted. Dean Kruger, Thais I liplett, bred Olinger. Arnold Harris, Curtis Lappegard, Cheryl Baird and Thelma Shaefer joined our class. Miss Jones greeted twenty-nine sixth graders. We thought we were pretty smart, but teacher dear soon had us under control. Barbara Rounds, Homer Ewoldt, Connie Maurstad and Rita Thorne joined our jolly class. We lost Harland Cummings. Upstairs at last! Miss Koch and Mr. Fox welcomed us and soon put a damper on our spirits, or at least tried. We shall never forget the expression on Mr. Fox’s face the day his suspenders snapped. Delmar Brockshus, Charles Allred, Denise Dykstra, Mary Lou Westphal and Karen Wiese joined us that year. Mary Jo Ostrom moved to Galesburg, Illinois, during the first semester. Miss Jones took Miss Koch's place; we assume she just couldn't stand us. I hirty-three pupils started eighth grade. Betty Dykstra, Harland Cummings, Gerald Nissen and Jay Hofmeyer joined us; Marcheta Olhausen and Lester Muilen- burg left. We started our freshman year with a bang-freshman initiation. Somehow we managed to survive the day which consisted of long-legged underwear, corn starched hair, work shoes, Lifebouy soap, onions and the paddle line. We started our high school career with fifty students. This year we had many new names to learn. They were Virgil Fink, Curtis Bremer, Gilbert Denny, Dennis Ewoldt, Bob Feddersen, Leland Glaser, Harlan Heetland, LeRoy Krikke, John Noonan, Mable Groff, Rosalie Habbena, Kar- lene Kluender, Glenda Meyer, Phyllis Mohni, Marilyn Peterson, Marlene Schwein, Betty Speck, Glenda Uittenbogard, Sharon Harms and Roy Peterson. JoAnn Hesse and Harland Cummings were our homecoming candidates and Marlys Klinker was our Oracle candidate. Our freshman year ended with a picnic at Lake Okoboji. This ended the days at Hartley High for Virgil Fink, Curtis Bremer, LeRoy Krikke, Glenda Uittenbogard and Roy Peterson. Page Fifteen — 1957 ORACLE— CLASS HISTORY (Continued) After three months of wonderful vacation, we returned to school and our sopho- more year. We began with forty-five students this year. Candidates for homecoming were Betty Speck and Bob Anderson. Our float received a second place rating. JoAnn Hesse reigned over our Oracle and Pat Foley was her attendant. We entered our junior year with forty-two; our class seemed to be getting small- er all the time. Those who left us were Cheryl Baird, Rosalie Habbena and Sharon Harms. Although we lost three, Norman Kroese from Moneta joined us to make it total forty. Our homecoming king and queen this year were Mable Groff and Jay Hofmeyer. Our float, which was very well constructed, won first prize. Another great moment during our junior year was when we received our class rings. Although some didn't keep them very long, they were very pretty. Mary Lou Westphal was our Oracle candidate this year. The biggest event of our junior year was getting ready for our banquet. The theme was Hitch Your Wagon to a Star. We had a delicious dinner and a dance afterwards. Oh, those late hours, but it was loads of fun! Our last year in good old Hartley High School began with forty-two. Homer Ewoldt left us at the end of the junior year. Lyle Stoterau graduated and Jeanette Boe- tel left us at the end of the first semester, which left us with our present number of forty. Our first big thrill for the year was freshman initiation. Oh, those poor fresh- men ! Then came homecoming. Our float received second prize. JoAnn Hesse and Harland Cummings reigned over the festivities. Barbara Olhausen and Mable Groff were the attendants. For our pictures all forty of us made a trip to Spencer to Medlar’s to say cheese.” The queen of our yearbook, the Oracle, is Margo Brinkert. So now we must say goodbye to thirteen years of hard work. There have been good times and bad ones. Now we, the class of '57 must step aside and let another class take our place. The school life for us ends, but a new and different life will soon begin as we leave these doors of this, our beloved school. Rage Sixteen — 1957 ORACLE- LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF THE SENIOR CLASS We the Sewor Class of '57, being of sound mind and body, despite what the faculty may tell you, do hereby leave to you just a few of our many outstanding quali- ties, too numerous to mention with the profound hope that the future seniors will be just one-tenth the marvelous class we were. Enough of that — so here goes! I, Bob heddersen, president of the Student Council, will this office to my brother. Jun- ior Feddersen, so that it can stay in the family.

I, Karlene Kluender, alias Stretch, leave my height to Mavis Ebel because everyone needs someone to look up to.

I, Lois Linder, will my ability to get straight “A” averages to Sharon Zahn. I, JoAnn Hesse, will my pestering ability to Marlene Tewes, so the school won't get too dull.

I, Denise Dykstra, will my way with men to Delores Perry because I won’t need it any more. I, Marilyn Peterson, leave my shorthand ability to Carole Hoger so Mr. Kelley will have someone to praise next year. I, Betty Speck, will my musical voice to Larry Gathman so he too can croon a tune be- neath the moon. I. Leland Glaser, will my Pepsodent smile and cheery hi” to Roger Westphal so the school can grin and bear it next year.

Rage Eighteen — 1957 ORACLE— LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT (Continued) I, Jay Hofmeyer, wiil my ability to make long shots to Jim Maguire to keep the Hawks rolling next year. I. John Noonan, will my ability to slop up the physics lab to Gary Johnson and Wally English, who are learning fast. I, Betty Dykstra, will my clarinet to Joan Christie so the band will thrive. I, Barbara Rounds, leave my h FA secretarial techniques to Yvonne McCarty so Mr. Kelley will have someone to depend on next year. I, Janna h aye Dodge, leave Irene Heuer and Jerry Scharnberg under the care of Mr. Borchard. We, the class of 57, being of 40 sound minds and a few dead bodies, will to you our amazing capacity for aggravating those poor souls in the teaching profession. We, seniors at last, will our good qualities to the underclassmen. We have so many we won’t miss a few. We, the class of ’57, leave with you our sincerest hope that you find Hartley High School the same wonderful place that we always thought it was.
