Ciass Pot There was a superintendent who lived in a school, He had so many seniors to teach the golden rule. As a solution to his problem, he sent us on our way; But we wrote this little poem, and left it here to stay. _Jl B-is for Barnes, the girl who came this year; There is always excitement when our ’’Oakie is near. C-is for Cunningham whose first love is his car; If he'll just leave the girls alone, we know he'll go far. G-is for Greene, the president of our class; When there's work to be done she’s a willing lass. H-is for Harkness, our boy with the brain; When he studies, it isn't a strain. H-is for Henderson, the goon of our class; With those grades of hers, do you think she’ll pass? H-is for Hurd, one of the wits in our bunch; She always says something which ends in a punch. K-is for Klinger, the future teacher in our class; From her pupils we're sure she'll get no sass. L-is for Lacer, our Zorro fan; He seems to live in fantasy land. M-is for Messer, our annual staff editor; When it comes to such work, she hasn't a competitor P-is for Pendergast, our Romeo shy; The girls would sure change that if he would just let them try. P-is for Preisner who always has a smile on her face; When it’s fun you’re after, she’ll sure set the pace. R-is for Randall, our athletic star; He sure goes whizzen in that little brown car. R-is for Reed who has 4-H work galore; When there's work to do, she'll always do more. S-is for Smith, the girl who’s caught her man; When it comes to boys, Ted is her only fan. We hope you will remember us For each little trait and deed; Now all we experienced seniors say, To all your teachers, take heed. THE STOCKGROWERS STATE BANK Member F.D. I.

Some of the activities for the Y-Teen this year were the Martian and Earthling Christmas Program, Mother and Daughter Tea, during the United Nations weekend by decorating the building, serving or cleaning up after the meal which was open to the public. OUR PURPOSE To build a fellowship of women and girls devoted to the task of realizing in our common lives those ideals of personal and social living to which we are committed by our faith as Christians. In this endeavor we seek to understand Jesus, to share his love for all people, and to grow in the knowledge and love of God. UV-Y qm L Y-Teo Develop ChoMudtpjv The purpose of the Hi-Y is to create and maintain a high standard of Christian character, clean speech, sports, scholarship, and living. Hi-Y is a Christian organization that all high school boys have an opportunity to join. It also represents a movement of Y.M.C.A. The Hi-Y besides having weekly meetings, provides various activities throughout the year.

Tod, borrows the principal's new typewriter without his permission, and conviently breaks the machine, adding to the suspense and mirth of the play. But when Patty's diary was published under the pen name, Ermintrude DeLacey, spreading scandelous, but true gossip about everyone in town the excitement really begins when everyone is trying to find this Ermintrude DeLacy. However, in the end all the problems are solved and a happy future promises to be in store for everyone. ydrnbvrvQ vorjf -wprnp wvicpcntf SPORTS PURE OIL COMPANY EMPLOYEES Ashland had a good turnout in track; 24 boys competed for the blue and white.
