SPONSORED BY LAKESHORE CAFE - Storm Lake all 'r'l W'f' wwf SENIORS VISIT OMAHA ON SKIP DAY At 5:00 A.M. thirty-one sleepy eyed Seniors and our sponsor, Mr. Ham- mond left for Omaha. We stopped at Denison to stretch our legs and eat breakfast. Upon our arrival in Omaha we visited Boys Town. We got to see their trade school and huge field house. All of us were quite impressed by the size of Boys Town. Our next stop took us to the television station KMTV. We were very lucky to see one of their live colored shows. After a tour through KMTV we had a few hours to go shopping. At noon we were guests for dinner at the large Brandise Department Store. A delicious meal was served. The high point of our Skip Day took us to Offut Air Force Base. After a guided tour on the base, we were told the history of a jet trainer and we got to look into the seating compartment of a jet. On our way home we stopped at Missouri Valley for supper. A group of tired Seniors who had enjoyed Skip Day very much arrived in Alta at 9:00 P.M. Sponsored by HORNER AND OLSON and LAKE SHORE GROCERY--Storm Lake fr Q I is graduation I! Baccalaureate service for the senior class of 1956 was held in the high school auditorium May 13. The Rev. R. M. Lammers delivered the sermon. His topic was The Things That Count Most in Life. Commencement exercises were held Wednesday, May 16, in the high school auditorium. Dr. John H. Olson of Omaha, Nebraska, gave an inspiring address, entitled Tomorrow - Today's Dream. Highest scholastic awards for the graduating class went to Joan Anderson, valedictorian, and Richard Peterson, salutatorian. The four other top students were Barbara Hanson, Roy Axelson, Karen Stille and Joan Jarvis. Bill McDonald and Barbara Hanson were the recipients of the Conner Awards. LeRoy Peterson, president of the Alta board of education, presented the diplomas to the thirty- three seniors. The benediction, given by the Rev. E. R. Peter- son, brought the memorable four years of high school to a close. . .. aiffsnwlf . 's- we if QAM- ,. , -yew 1-: so fftttei..,p,c.

NO MORE HOMEWORK is the successfully tested and colorful account, suggested by a newspaper story, of what actually happens when circumstances propel three students into the roles of principal, vice-principal, and school secretary at Ames High School. It all begins because Principal Lundquist just has to be away to speak at the State Principals' Convention. Miss Dill, regular school secretary, has a terrible cold and insists on going home for the day. The vice-principal, Mr. Obermayer, is confined to his bed with a high fever. Then it is that Mr. Ames, school board president, decrees that the student council officers shall take over for the day. And that's how Pamela Jones becomes acting-principal! She gets off to a bad start when, in trying to buzz for the jani- tor, she rings the fire alarm bell instead. Then she has to decide whether to stand behind an unpopular teacher and whether to keep the schools star athlete out of the State Basketball Tournament. Not the least of Parn's worries is good-natured Buzz Bailey, acting vico- principal, who grandly advises a gossipy student that There will be no more homework! Then theres Faversham Lightly Jr., who would rather sleep than eat - and spends most of his time doing both! To add to Pam's grief, the home ec. teacher is lateg and Shalimar Ames, her hated rival, turns on her honeyed charm to lure the reluc- tant Buzz into taking over the class - with some truly astonishing results! And finally, with the school play, Rusty Wings, set to open that very night, she loses the key to the trunkful of costumes. However - complications are convincingly resolved in the end. Shalimar's conspiracy to implicate Pam in the robbery of the play- ticket money is exposed, much to the dismay of her pompous father. Rusty Wings takes an unexpected flight of success, with Pamela starring. Even the audience finds itself playing an unexpected part! SPONSORED BY PETERSON MOTOR COMPANY - SPORTSMAN'S Storm Lake - Cherokee Storm Lake SENIOR CLASS PLAY Inner Willy is off to college - relentlessly goading poor Will- oughby into becoming a man. Of course Willoughby needs just that sort of character around. Having led a sheltered life with his three maiden aunts, he's become about as spineless a creature as ever there was. In the college dorm, he's the one who makes the beds and lends the money and clothes tuntil he hasn't even a pair of trousers to wear when his aunts arrive to visitJ. That is, until Inner Willy materializes. Then gradually - very gradually and painfully - Willoughby begins to act like a man. Willoughby has the makings of an athlete, a star football player, but he insists that he comes from a Ulong line of faintersf' And be- sides, there's always the danger of a smashed nose and broken bones and all. His three aunts agree, they even decide college life is too strenuous for their frail boy and insist that he return to the home town. And he would have gone, too! But there is a certain blonde -- a college newspaper reporter, no less - who tries to encourage Willoughby to stay and become a hero. The college rooters, too, put the pressure on him, and of course there's Inner Willy, who twits and tortures the poor fellow with jibes likeg Water on the knees, you know. The family tree had weak lim s. Small wonder then that Willoughby finally decides to stand up to his aunts and announce that he's going to stay and play football. Even those doubtful demurrers are happy when they see how striking Willoughby looks in a football suit. Most wonderful of all is pretty, blonde Sally's reaction - well - not quite as wonderful as Inner Willy's disappearing act when he sees that the outer Willy has shed his shackles at last! if Willoughby Adams Inner Willy Chuck Martin Johnny Newton Harvey Downs Ralph Jones Coach Lloyd Hank Johnson Sally Bishop Aunt Louise Aunt Olga Aunt Hester Marybelle Turner Lottie Marion Anna Kay Dorothy Bill McDonald Bill Hitchcock Vincent Moser Dennis Peterson Chuck Ford Ronald Murphy Gary Johnson Ray Grienke Barbara Hanson Maesel Lietz Susan Hetrick Joan Jarvis Faye Huseman Nyla King Karen Stille JoAnn Kent Lorna Hitchcock Joan Anderson I . s-ey -sitvzgle .talawfaef f' A I '7l1e Bum Sioux Front Row: Lorna Hitchcock, Joan Anderson, Susan Hetrick, Nyla King, Maesel Lietz JoAnn Kent.

The chosen theme, Under the Big Top, had the characteristics of a circus. On one wall was Silly Sam's Side Show. It consisted of a juggler, a strong man, sword swallower, fat woman, magic man, fire-eater, and two barkers, all of which were painted figures fastened to the wall to appear as the picture in front of the large tent. Across from the side show were three stands. One was a fortune teller, a place to have your pictures taken, and a game of throwing rings and win- ning a prize. Another act, and side rings were made up of a seal act and a lion act. The background for this was a parade of two elephants, an ostrich, two cages of monkeys and on horse-back, and a large bear. streamers and two large clowns decorated the stage. The ceil- attraction was the three ring circus. The center ring was a dog lions, a girl Colored ing was made of multi-colored streamers of red, green, white, blue, and yel- low. It draped so as to resemble a circus tent. In the center, it reached a peak, where the balloon bag hung. The entrance was of white lattice work in a lover's lane style. Red hearts hung from the streamers with the names of the Juniors and Seniors on them. A merry-go-round was the center of attraction. It consisted of red, white, and green polka dot horses which revolved in the center of the merry- go-round. Pink lemonade was served at the pink lemonade stand. The tables were very colorful with merry-go-rounds as center pieces. Colored horses on the merry-go-rounds were used as place cards. Circus animals were the favors, and pink, green, yellow, and red animal nut cups were also used. After the delicious three-course ban- quet dinner, which was served by the Barker and Clown waiters and wait- resses, a short dinner program followed. The guests enjoyed dancing to the music of the Tommy Thomas' Combo until 11:30, after which a balloon shower fol- lowed. This concluded a very beautiful and successful Junior-Senior Banquet.

The entrance was composed of Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck displaying the banner entitled, Garden of Fantasy. The coat check was made up of latticed blue and white stream- ers, with an arched doorway entwined with pink and red carnations. The side sections of the south wall depicted a storybook theme from Disneyland, The characters shown were Uncle Scrooge: Donald Duck: Grandma Duckg Daisy Duck: Huey, Dewey and Louieg Mickey and Minnie Mouse: Pluto, and Lady and the Tramp. The antimated section displayed the scene of Minnie talking to Goofy in front, of a little cottage. Uncle Scrooge, Grandma Duck, the three nephews, and Pluto by his dog house were spectators to the scene. A sloping grass hill led to the stage. Welcome Seniors was spelled out in colored carnations on tne green slope, A stairway, bordered by rocks and flowers cut through the center of the hill and led to the stage. A statue of Donald Duck at the top of the steps resembled a master of ceremonies, A white fence entwined with colrred flowers bordered the stage, The ceiling consisted of French Blue and Light Blue streamers, -is ler,4fsaf..mastua1ftfw vlas1ws1:.1.giiMNssivr'jff .ml ww-w U ' ' 1956 The punch stand was decorated as an old stone wishing well, complete with the old oaken bucket. The north wall continued to carry out the storybook theme of Disneyland. Horace Horsecollar, Donald Duck. the three nephews, Pluto and the two little pups and Goofy thumbing a ride were all traveling the winding road to the Fantasyland Castle. The west wall was a. beautiful forest scene including green trees, a waterfall and colorful mountains. Many forest animals, a mountain pool and lovely flower beds completed the scene. Dumbo, the flying elephant, winked gayly at the guests from his perch high on the west wall of the gym. The center of attraction was a beautiful blue and white fountain in the center of the dance floor, Out of the high stone center flowed showers of sparkling blue water. The waiters and waitresses wore costumes resembling those of Peter Pang green shirts, yellow pants, and bright colored hats with 9, feather in them. These waiters and waitresses served the banquet dinner and acted as hosts and hostesses at the open house held on Saturday and Sunday afternoons. The music for the evening of dancing was furnished by Jimmy Smith and his orchestra. At intermission, a minstrel show was pre- sented by sixteen freshman students.

FOOTBALL SEASON The Cyclones started the season at home by losing a hard fought battle 19-13 to the Maple Valley Champs, Holstein. Alta's inexperience in the line was the determining factor. The Cyclones then started Sioux Valley Conference play with Milford. They were defeated after a hard fought game 13-O. They then played Paullina, who eventually won the con- ference title. The Cyclones used everything in their power to win, but finally fell in the last half 7-6. Alta started their three week homecoming series of two away and one at home. At Primghar the half time score was 6-0 in favor of Primghar, but a determined team took the field and tied the game 6-6. This was the final score. Alta, after spoiling one homecoming, journeyed to Sanborn with hopes of spoiling another one. The Cyclones lost 18-O. Our Homecoming proved to be successful by downing young, inexperienced Sutherland 21-6. Then the annual Alta-Aurelia battle proved to be a losing cause in a 27-6 defeat by a strong, fast Aurelia club. The Cyclones rebounded to defeat Hartley 20-13 in the final outing for the year.

Senior Bill McDonald, taking over at quarterback for the first time in his career, hurled two touchdown passes and scored once himself. Jerry Mills headed the early drive. Larry Zwemke swiped a pass which set the Cyclones up for a touchdown. Don Swanson booted the extra point to put the Cyclones in front 7-0. Bill McDonald passed a long toss to Chuck Ford and the Senior hauled in six points. Don Swanson again kicked the point and Alta lead 14-0. Chuck Ford caught a beautiful pass from Bill McDonald for the locals' final points. Don Swanson made it a perfect night with his third conversion and a 21-0 Alta lead. Sutherland passes counted for the Tiger tally. Dean Peters was hurt in the third quarter. This vic- tory gave the locals a 5-4 mark for Homecoming games in the last nine years.

The season opened with the state indoor meet, held at Iowa City March 24. The boys proved to have some very hopeful prospects. On April 3, Alta, Albert City and Aurelia held a triangular meet. The squad did a good job, placing second, It was a cold, windy day on April 9, when Alta participated in the Holstein Relays. Despite the bad weather, the Cyclones finished in fifth place. April 13 proved to be an unlucky day. The boys did not do much at the Pocahontas Relays as most of their tries were unsuccessful. Alta took part in the Cherokee Relays on April 14. Although they showed improvement over Friday's meet, they could not get the needed points to place in the meet. The Sac City Relays were held April 20. Alta seemed to be out-classed by the larger schools. Our own meet, the Alta Relays, was held April 27, The boys were well adjusted to working on their own field and the en- tire squad did a good job. The Sioux Valley Conference meet was our most successful of the season. It Was held May 1, and the Cyclones were in good shape and placed second. Gary Johnson set a new record for the discus throw at the Aurelia Relays May 4. The whole team worked to turn in the necessary points to give them a second place. The Cyclones took part in the Estherville Relays May 7. The squad brought home a third. In the District meet at Aurelia May 12, the following boys qualified for the State Meet at Ames May 19: Bill McDonald, high hurdles, low hurdles and high jump: Gary Johnson, discus: Dick Lund, high jump: Dennis Brechwald, pole vault, mile relay team fChuck Ford, Howard Lietz, Dennis Peterson, Ray Grienkel: two mile relay team iMilo Kindwall, Gaylen Hinkel- dey, Kenny Watts, Chuck Fordjg Ray Grienke, quarter mile, The Cyclones had a dual meet with Storm Lake May 15, bringing to a close a very fine track season.
