CLASS WILL We the senior class, of the city of Atkinson, county of Henry, state of insanity and Illinois, being of sound mind and memory?, do make, exaggerate, publish, and promulgate this our last philanthropic inclination and testament in lack of manner and word as follows: I, Gordon De Vriezer, give my ability to jump five feet nine inches to Wayne Misfeldt in hopes he will be able to do so. I also give my speed in basketball and football to Francis Cathelyn because I know he needs it. I, Richard De Decker, leave my new rocket ball point pen to Bettie Wilson, who is always borrowing it, and my liking to follow certain girls to Wayne Misfeldt. I, Danny Freddy, leave my ability to get along with teachers, women, and others to Winfred Gentry who I think will come to need it. I, Royce Van Vooren, leave my rusty, well-combed hair to Charley Ouart. I, Robert Brown, leave my love of school books and ability to study to Ruthie De Roo. I, Richard Moens, leave my admiration and devoted respect of teachers to Joan De Decker.

I, Mary Ellen Van Opdorp, give my simplicity, modesty, and quietness to Donna Jean Quayle. I. Donetta Taber, bestow upon Ed Little my dainty manner. I, Doris Plummer, leave my last name to whoever will use it as I shall not need it for long, and my ability to do studyless lessons to Annabelle Rahn. I, Elsie Mille, leave my sense of humor and great enthusiasm to Rhea De Smith. I, Rose Marie Lund, leave my apple polishing to Francis Cathelyn. I, Elna Nordstrom, leave my high grades to Mary Lou Causemaker. I, Dorothy Verbeke, leave my ability to get away from school fast to Rowena Walker.
