LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT of the CLASS OF 1974 We the Seniors, being of sound mind and body, do make this our last will and testament. I, TINA KRIPAL, will my great big brown eyes to Karen, Tim, and Rog, in hopes that next year they will still have something to laugh at, and least but not last I will my natural blond hair and black roots to Mark Christensen, so he’ll never get bored with one color, and finally I will my extra loud vocal chords and big mouth to Cindy Anderson so that from now on she will be heard, then seen!! I, ROCKY OLIVERIUS, will my XL 175 to Douglas Schmale in hopes he will realize that he should own one and to Reid Block I will my ability to walk and do things slow so he doesn't become overexerted. I, BEV NARJES, will my mind, and a scrub brush and soap to Benita Ramirez so that she can clean it up some day, and my pickle to Roger Behrends so that he will have something to keep himself occupied. I, STEVE TAYLOR, will to Charlie Leach 1 full pack of cigarettes in order to prevent him from having to borrow so many from everyone, and to Larry Stoll, I will what is left of my car so he can have fun trying to wreck it as many times as I have. I, CINDY NIELSON, will my driving ability to Benita Ramirez so that she can keep her car in one piece. I, STEVE BRUNS, will my ability to put air shocks on to Ben Jones, so that next time he'll be able to do it himself. I, SUSAN HOUSER, will my long, dark hair to Rog Behrends to cover his legs, in hopes that in years to come people won't think he's waiting for a flood, and my ability to stay in my dorm room, at night, during Cheerleading Camp to Pam Smith in hopes that she won’t be found under the library . . . doing research. I, RICK HAYS, will my ability to skip school and not get caught to Ben Jones and Dan Dickinson in hopes that they won't have to make up double time again. I, MARGO WIEST, will my ability to put a pop can in my mouth to Doug Schmale so that he too can set some kind of record. I also will my wild, hilarious laugh to the Pep Club bus so that Miss Frantz won't ever fall asleep. Finally, I will my ability to have a long, fun, and loving relationship with the same guy to Miss Nerve Pill, so that she too may know what true happiness is. I, RICK CHRISTENSEN, will my car and ability to go get my girlfriend so that Michael won’t have to go along with Ben all the time. And 1 will my ability not to smoke to Dan, in hopes that he can be a better athlete. And finally, I will my soft and kind touch to Reid, in hopes that he won’t beat up his chick. I, VICKI HORST, will my short hair to Holly Jones, so that she won’t have to keep brushing it out of her eyes when she gets nervous, and my cheerleading shoes to Karen Huff in hopes that she has many prosperous years of mountain climbing.
