Text from Pages 1 - 44 of the 1947 volume:

We, the Senior Class of 1947, dedi- cate this Year Book to those who are still in these halls and those who are yet to come� May they carry on the traditions of the School and keep its honor high� ■ 1 Greetings The underclassmen will recount with pleasure the experiences of the past year and look forward in anticipation to the offerings of another school year. They will feel a sense of loneliness which separ- ations always bring, but the hope of a reunited association and the thrill of being one more year closer to a goal are sufficient to enliven the spirit and to rekindle ambitious aspirations. To seniors the closing of the term means much more. The realization of attainment becomes a hollow sensation when the future is so uncertain. It is then, for the senior to muster ail the courage of his Inspired convictions to grit his teeth with a determination of confidence and to rededicate his energies to the most productive means at hand in an effort to attain the objectives wherein he seeks satisfaction. Por parents the year marks another period of self-sacrifice and denial. The future becomes more perplexing as the ex- pected means for further training may not be at hand and the disturbed social order la constantly growing ■ore disrupted. p r f 7 4 Superintendent Science The world now, as never before needs trained talent. And it is true that competition la more keen and that specializations are necessary to adequately supply the demand of tomorrow. Opportunity once wel- comed buttftffr it challenges and this challenge must be met b’ individual desire to prepare better, to work har o accomplish more. B.

To tue class of 48 we give our distinguished position In this school providing they discard their childish ways and assume the Importance of seniors We leave the faculty silently praying that sometime they may again have the honor of Instructing pupils as fine as the class of 47 . As individuals we leave the following: George Banta leaves bla mo the:- and sister to carry on the Banta name In Baker High Bussell Clarke leaves playing I ll Be Glad When You1 re Dead You Rascal, You I Lynn Blckle leaves because Mr Heftle Is quite insistant that she depart Immediately (Now why would he Insist on a thing like that?)

Signed, Delphine Fos Louise Braun Lynn BieKLa We've struggled, we've 3weat, we've worked and we've pained. By Jeepers, you students, we've finally made a poem that is reasonable, plausible, could it be tnset Well, think it over klddo's, we'll leave it up to you. There's Banta for Instance, he's fat you'll agree. When It comes to the women, he a stumped, but they say. That real hard chess playing is his specially. Take Rakes though, he's different. Just a farmer that's all. When classes are settled, he’s out in the hall Now Blckle, she's different, that's a faot. You'll agreee Horses and cows are her pastime. Maybe. Harkl I hear the roar of a ford V-8, Why it's Lover Boy North a looking for dates. When it comes to this athlete, handsome and tall, Mary Ann Ideker says he's best of all. Then there's Robert Christianson, In study halls he has his fun. But Wait, three teachers disagree with me, Wilson, Pries, and Casady Talk about red heads , we've seen quite a few. But Dickie Molstad'a brush does hit make him blue. He's brushed it, oombed it, purexed it too. And has finally decided that the red will do. When we come to gossip I think that ve see that Audelle Schneider can beat you and me. cause she's listened, she's called, got all the rumors. GeeI It's a wonder Bell Telephone would keep a girl like she. WaitI I see visions of Medicine Rocks, of a fellow that's cure. In bright blue socks. There's a girl beside him, 0h, can it bet That the girl we are kidding la Clarice Richey. While on the subject of romance, I think we should see, , What Remlllard thinks of the girl problexa-ly, Ob. skip it, don't worry, he's over a blook. He's cutting up fat down at Redlske's shop While talking of shorties, I think ve should speak.

This printer has a twisted name, It'• Albert Malenvosky In our class, Dan Cupid la a fast old bird, he's changed Moody's name to Mrs. Crawford Next comes dark eyed Russell Clarke, He's really got a line. When it comes to playing the clarinet This boy is right on time. In a booth In a big high chair down at the Imke Theatre, Sits Norma Coons a brilliant star. You'll recognise her In Madler's car. At chewing gum and eating candy, I know a girl that la quite handy. This girl I think we all agree. Is dear Miss Evelyn DeGrandeee I know an alto that has sung and sung And this blond alto isn't dumb. Why, Engstrom tuned up many a time. And sung little you and me a line. Next comes Braun and Bucklln, Two people not alike. Where Braun, sweet’ girl Is dark, Lois dear Is light. Take Braun, though, she's quite Homey , She stays home every night. But Bucklln, that girl is different, She's with Collie every night In our class we have a baker. All day at pies and cakes she's stood. But I bet if Alma's smile were eaten. That It would taste twice as good In Fost and Fisk I've hit a stump. One is blond and neither plump. In sice they both do quite agree. But when Nina is In dancing, De pllne is out with Hoenke Well, that's all the Seniors, There aln's no more by gee. We've had a darn good time here. And a wonderful Faculty We hope, no pride Is injured. We hope no one left out. If you think Kochel should be Included, Skip ltil He's in doubtll Signed, Robert Koehel 14 I Last evening eg we were seated in the Norma Coons Swanky Cinema we were Informed by the new ushers, Evelyn De grande and George Banta. that necking and popping our gum Is not allowed. We prepared to put up an argument but the movie was starting so we settled down to enjoy It. The lews of the Day , Cameraman, Robert Christlanaon. Is shooting pictures of the high percentage of car accidents in the United States. The first scene we see is of a reckless driver whom we recognise as George Rakes speeding down main street trying to dodge the apple cart of James Kirachten who is selling apples for cigarette money, but as he dashed around the cart he crashed into Dorothy1 (Stelber, that Is) Beauty Saloon, injuring several customers among whom we find Charles Atlas Hayes, who Is getting a permanent wave in his curly hair. Someone calls an Ambulance and soon we hear the wall of the siren on Clarke's Collection Car. George let forth a cry of pain, Take me to the nearest doctori In the next scene we find the ambulance pulling up to a peaceful hos pltal where we find Robert Kochel M.D.P.F.C,. holding one of hi3 patients hoofs, (the old grey mare, we mean). We leave George there with a ruptured clavicle In the care of Lynn Blckle. Kochel1s head nurse. At last the main feature starts. It is the sad story of Robert Lover Boy North, who has lost his entire fortune while patronising Remlllard 1 a Cockta...er, ah, Saloo...er, ah, Ba.,.er, ah. Hamburger Stand were Whisk,.,er ah, Bae,. er, ah. Chocolate milk Is sold. His Hamburger Stand is a front for his world famous Gambling Palace where iVhlst and Monopoly are the special- ties. Of course Lover Boy lost his money playing monopoly Suddenly there is a commotion at the far end of the bar...er, ah, counter and we see Rody Thomas being evicted from the premises by Milo Young, bouncer. Rody was making with a wolf call, while the Curvy sisters, really Burnette________Hepperle and Ruth Engstrom. were singing. A howl of sirens and a screech of tires and Dick Molstad, Chief of Police , and his men raid the place. Lover Boy gets back his money, every one la happy again and so the movie ends. As we file out of the theatre we see Albert Malenvosky with hla broom and mop, all ready to clean up the place. Just outside we hear a loud clear call, and when we emerge from the crowd we see none other than meek and mild Clarice Richey yelling at the top of her lungs, Violets, Violets I Violets for Balejl Will wonders never cease? We decided to have a snack so we headed for Cliff and Marabelle s Swanky Snack Shoppe and who should meet us at the door to es- cort us to our table than Delphine Foat. Guess she didn't get married after all. We order our sneck and a cute redhead waitress brings it to us. We discover to our great surprise that she is Nina Dell Fisk. When we asked her about her hair she said, The cops think Ifm blonde. There is a clatter at the door and we see Louise Braun stagger In under a huge tray of pies and cakes. The art of baking must have gotten Into her blood At a table near us there seems to be a family quarrel In progress. The wo- man gets so furious she smashes a restaurant platter on her husband's head and stamps out of the room, Lnia Bup.Vhn has certainly acquired a temper. Upon leaving the Snack Shoppe we decide to take a taxi back to our hotel . We flag one and it's Just our luck to get Alma Burklej the most reckless and dar- ing cabby in the city. She delivers us to our hotel much to our wonder and as we enter tired but happy after seeing so many of our former olassmatee we are not greatly surprised to see Audelle Schneider at the hotel switchboard saying, Nuzitoer please? Thank you. Then blissfully plugging In the wrong number. She hasn't changed a bit, has she? Signed, Audelle Schneider Lynn Biokle Rody Thomas 15 I I I I I I I [ I [ [ [ [ I [ 1.
