iSnecik Dciy Friday April 3, found the Seniors’ desks in the study hall empty. We Seniors and our sponsor, Mrs. Henry, went on our sneak day. We left Meadow Grove at 6:00 A. M. bound for Lincoln and Omaha by chartered bus. We stopped in Seward for breakfast and got into Lincoln at 9:30. W'e then went on a tour of the Capitol. Highlights of this were visiting the State Legislature, which was in session, and going to the dome which was fourteen stories up. From there we went to the State Historical Society building on the University of Nebraska Campus. We then ate our dinner at the Student Union. After dinner we went on a tour of Morrill Hall Museum. In it we saw all kinds of prehistoric, stuffed animals, some dating back 35 million years, and other animals of every description. W'e also visited the Theater of the Stars in the Ralph Mueller Planetarium. The rest of the afternoon found the Seniors scattered throughout Lincoln doing whatever they wished. We left Lincoln at 6:00 P. M. to go to Omaha where we attended the beautiful Ice Capades. We arrived back in Meadow Grove at 3:00 A. M. tired, but happy. littery In the fall of 1955, fifteen bright-eyed freshmen started on the road to graduation. Leading us was Darrell Wyatt. Mr. Merklinger was our sponsor. During the first semester we lost Vivian Svehla, but gained Sandra Lewis. Gary Werner was elected as president to lead us through the sophomore lap. Mrs. Rice was our guide. Charlie Barton did not return to our ranks, but Milan and Leon Praeuner and Richard Wichman joined. For the Junior-Senior banquet Kathleen Meyer, Karon McKnight, Bonna Margritz, Rachel Wieting, Roger Suck-storf, Rodney Suckstorf, Gary Werner, and Leon Praeuner served as waitresses and waiters. We started on our third lap led by Kathleen Meyer. Coach Anderson sponsored us. Leon Praeuner did not return. Charlie Barton was with us for a few months. Karen Granger joined our ranks in the winter. We presented our class play November 22, “If Mother Only Knew.” In May we gave the seniors a lovely banquet. The theme was “Tropical Isle.” On a later evening in May we formed the aisle for the seniors to march up for their diplomas. We came back strong for the fourth and final lap with Karon McKnight as president and Mrs. Henry as our sponsor. Judy Masterson joined our ranks for several months. Richard Wichman left the class, and Karon McKnight left to become Mrs. Eldon Wilson. In the spring we presented three one-act plays, “The Happy Journey to Camden and Trenton,” “If Men Played Cards As Women Do,” and “It’s Cold In Them Thar Hills.” In May the juniors gave us a very beautiful banquet, the theme being, “W'ith A Song In My Heart.” We finally reached our goal. May 20, ,1959, the night which we received our diplomas. The journey was hard, but the hardest one is the one ahead. —28—
