Hllllllll IHT ITA lil Morning - 8:45 AM and we are herded inTo our respecTive corrals by The local vigilanTes. The laTesT developmenT Trom The Gensville Gulch GazeTTe is nailed To The nearesT coTTon wood and a day on The ranch is well under way. A caTTlemen's meeTing is held TirsT and The origin, hisTory and rules of The WesT are considered. All cowpokes musT pass This hurdle in order To compeTe in The rodeo held early in The spring oT The year. NexT a liTTle recreaTion geTs under way wiTh lariaT Throwing and bronc busTing. IT is now abouT The middle oT The morning and some oT The hands reTire To The bunkhouse where They polish Their gear and ready Themselves Tor The resT oT The day. OThers go on The ride To The Gulch where The money maTTers are Taken care of and The Tinancial siTuaTion of The Spread is balanced up. JusT before chuck, The cowpokes divide inTo Two groups: one does a liTTle pracTicing on branding while The oThers go over The land and inspecT The grazing lands and waTer supply. Chuck! And There is a mad rush To The chow line and plenTy oT good Tood. For a liTTle while, There is a lull in The day's work and music Trom guiTars and a blending oT voices can be heard as The hands Take a 'breaTh- in-spell.' On wiTh The days work now and pracTice geTs going Tor The big Round- Up To be given Tor The resT oT The surrounding ranches. FarTher along in The aTTernoon, There is a gaThering and all hands meeT To geT beTTer acquainTed wiTh Their Tellow cowpokes and acquainT Themselves wiTh The Talk and life of The sheepmen and oThers Than Those of The caTTlemen.

THE Glllll RUSH Thirfy-one would-be miners enfhusiasfically shouldered fheir picks and shovels on fhaf brighf Sepfember morn and sef off in search of gold. Yes. fhey were fhe Eorfy-niners. They had long heard if said fhaf gold is where you find if, and fhey were surely going fo find if if anyone could. The leaders of fhe expedifion were Dallas l-ligh, presidenf: Coral Taylor, vice-presidenf: Ardyfh Prichard, secrefary: and Edsel Brown. Treasurer. Along fhe way a carnival was held for all fhe caravans, each selecfing ifs own candidafes for King and Queen of fhe fesfivifies: we selecfed Paffy High and Edsel Brown. Lafer we sfopped af a pool whereif was rumored gold had been found and fhere selecfed an annual queen, Bar- bara Walls: however, someone else had preceded us: and we were forced fo confinue our search. In '46 we sfarfed on wifh renewed vigor: a rich vein had been discov- ered by fhe caravan ahead. Gold! gold! was our cry. New life was added by new leaders: Pearl Bolenbaugh, presidenf: Edsel Brown, vice-presidenfg Joanne Sidle. secrefaryg Carolyn Agler, freasurerg and Alice Mae Krugh, reporfer. By fhe side of fhe road we picked a whife carnafion for our class flower, and flew our newly selecfed banner of purple and whife. By fhe second half of fhaf year's iourney we had picked up miner John Sigler. We also had a Chrisfmas parfy af Phyllis Faurof's fo pep up our spirifs. Toward fhe end of fhe second year, several gave up hope of ever finding gold: fool's gold had deceived fhem foo many fimes, and 'rhey decided fhaf if was of no use. So Sepfember found iusf fwenfy-six of fhe original Forfy-Niners in search of gold. Wifh new-leaders-Dallas High, presidenf: Carolyn Agler, vice-president Joanne Sidle, secrefary: Ardyfh Prichard, freasurerg Coral Taylor, hisforian: Lowell Sfemen, sergeanf-at arms: and Marlene Meeker. news reporfer-we pressed furfher on: for by now we had realized fhaf We Finish fo Begin and defermined fo make fhis our moffo. By some sfreak of luck a rich deposif of valuable ore was discovered in The Cusfers' Lasf Sfandf' Several weeks were spenf here, and fhen we fraveled on again, sfopping iusf long enough fo have a scrap-paper drive fo raise more funds for our expedifion. Affer a shorf skirmish wifh Indians af exam fime, we found ourselves a liffle nearer our goal. Gold rings now adorned each hand as a symbol of our quesf. Onward, sfill on- ward was our cry! In May. as skies began fo clear, we enferfained some fribes of friendly Indians who had helped us on our way. Yes, we have learned many lessons from fhe Indians. and warm skies above remind us fha? The quesf is yef ahead. And so-wifh renewed vigor on go fhe Forfy-Niners! Wifh 'rhe changing colors of fhe fall season, came also fhe lasf lap of our iourney fo fhe Wesf. Twenfy-six miners were all fhaf were leff of fhe original fhirfy-one, and fhese were defermined fo find fhe gold of California. New leaders: Dallas High, Presidenf: John Sigler, Vice-Presidenf: Joanne Sidle, Secre- fary: Ardyfh Prichard, Treasurer: Coral Taylor, Annual Edifor: Pearl Bolen- baugh, News Reporfer: and Carolyn Agler, l-lisforian. The expedifion sfopped fo fill fhe wafer barrels af an oasis and were enferfained by one of fhe following caravans, who were following us. On and on and fhen California! The land of promise-a golden goal is iusf wifhin reach. l-lere we come fo fhe end of our journey-fhe gold of educafion is ours.

ATTer one hundred years Time you can hear every- where ThaT cry, CaliTornia or BusT: BuT This Time, noT Tor mere gold. This Time iT is To search Tor and discover The G-reaT ATomic Power. This power, ThaT can be obTained only in The warm, dry cIimaTe oT CaIiTornia, is so powerTul ThaT you can Turn nighT inTo day. The 49ers Took oTT The day aTTer They received Their diplomas Trom The greaTesT school ThaT ever exisTed. For Traveling, insTead oT covered wagons: They piled inTo The new STudebaker Truck ThaT Dallas had so nicely covered Tor The Trip. IT was a wee biT crowded wiTh The bunch oT 26 in iT buT They man- aged because-as The Tale goes-some oT Them never saw Caliliornia. My, my, before They had crossed The sTaTe bor- der They were aTTacked by a bunch oT unhosTile miners who said The 49ers had previously been uniusT wiTh Them and They could hardly deTray ex- penses on The super prom They had given Them. Those poor Juniors! We gave Them our sympaThy and moved on. California, here we come!!! Dallas was cauTioned noT To drive so TasT, buT you know Dallas. When They hiT The sTaTe border a Tew oT The passengers were Thrown over board. When They goT sTopped abouT a mile laTer and Turned around To pick Them up, They discovered ThaT There were only Three Thrown ouT. One, Mary MoTTinger, said she had changed her mind abouT going: she was going back and live ouT a guieT, peaceTul mar- ried liTe wiTh WiIberT. Coral Taylor, anoTher, said 26 she had promised her dad To be aT work aT 5:00 o'clock and she musT geT back. They all knew, Though, iT was Markie and noT her work she loved ThaT well. The only one To geT hurT ouT oT The Three was Olie STemen. They Told him To jump in and They'd Tix him up on The way, buT he reliused, re- membering ThaT he had a daTe Tor eighT wiTh Lola ThaT he iusT couldn'T break. So They wished The Three much happiness and luck and proceeded wesT- ward wiThouT Them. IT was less crowded now. As The mighTy deTermined gang enTered FT. Wayne and was passing Bell's Rink, Jayne Blush and Boo- gie Woods noTiced Two very Tamiliar cars siTTing in The parking loT. They iusT happened To have Their skaTes along so They blew The emergency horn and Dallas sTopped. Well, There wenT Two more.

She wished us a successful frip and joined him. She said fhal she had no desire for fhaf Afomic Power fhey were seeking: she liked fhings iusf as lhey were. The nexl' poinf of any inferesl on lhe frail was Sl. Louis. Ronnie Edwards signed up wifh l'he Sf. Louis Cardi- nals affer much coaxing from his fellow classmafes. His only obiecfion was fhaf he would have fo parf wil'h his much beloved friend, John Sigler. Buf he consenfed and lhe caravan shoved on fo Denver, Colorado where fhey sfopped af Mary Bolenbaugh's aunl s home. Here fhey resfed over nighl' and sfarfed ouf fhe nexl' day.

When fhey sfopped for a bife lo eaf al' a wayside inn, Pearl Sfufz fell in love wifh fhe place and made ferms wifh fhe owner. She purchased il' and named il' Balyeafs Coffee Shop ll. Before fhe caravan moved on she per- suaded Mariorie Carr fo sfay fo be her privale sec- refary and Dorofhy Long as head cook. Dorolhy's job was only femporary because of her engagemenf lo Lowell Schaffer. As we enfered Salf Lake Cify we were informed lhaf Pearl Bolenbaugh had won fhe fille Miss America. She leff on fhe nexf 'frain for California where she was engaged for screen fesfs wifh MGM. She hired Barbara Walls for her privafe maid and Carolyn Agler as her privale sfenog- rapher.

As fhe caravan enfered California, John Sigler re- ceived word of a chance fo meel Wall' Disney in person fo apply for a iob as carloonisf. He leff lhe group and proceeded by frain. As fhey approached San Diego, Max Kline was affracfed by fhe class uniforms of fhe Unifed Sfafes Marine Corps. He signed up for a life-long career, as a Colonel.
