By his optimistic philosophy of life and his wholehearted desire to contribute something of beauty to his fellowmen he endeared himself to those who knew him and left last- ing memorials for enjoymentafter he was gone. We express sincere appreciation for the gift of The Band Concert , his painting of that event on the main street of Conrad. It will hang in the assembly hall of CHS and give pleasure to its observers for years to come K 1 4 t mimi J. ED SIIVIMS J. Ed Simms was born on a farm near Beaman, Iowa, September 28, 1917. He attended the Conrad Consolidated School and was graduated with the class of '35. In '39, '40, and '41 he exhibited at the Art Salon at the Iowa State Fair. Grant Wood became interested in these exhibits and in the fall of '41, Wood invited Ed to enroll in S. U. I. and attend his art classes. Due to Wood's illness and death he received only a few lessons,'but they had a lasting influence ,in Ed's life. Wood encouraged him to paint what he knew most about: Iowa farms, fields, hills and streams. His paintings were acceptable and hung in Denver, in the Colorado Art Museum show in '42 and '43 and in the Joselyn Memorial Gallery in Omaha, Nebraska. He was a member of the Cedar Falls Art Association and sponsored several shows in the gallery ,in Cedar Falls. In August '46. he won top honors at the Iowa State Fair with his painting, Spring Plowing . This picture has been in the traveling exhibit since that time. A number of his paintings are in the home of his parents, and in the homes of his friends throughout the country. He passed away on September ZZ, 1946. Superintendent R. G. Smith, Mr. George Hurlbutt, Mr. Ralph Fink, Mr. E. J. Brockway, Mr. Clarence Hogle, Mr. Delbert Douden, Mr. Clyde Newton Few people, while yet in school, realize or appreciate the efforts of the Board of Education. Too often the only notice they pay the organization is at Commencement time, at election time, or perhaps when they see the name on the little room at the left of the main entrance into the hallway of the school building. However, with in the confines of this Sancturn Sanctorum , the Board of Education, representing the community, makes many decisions relative to the administration Of this local educational institution. They select the faculty, who teach the children of this communityg they hire the bus drivers, who safely transport the country children to and from schoolg they hire a custodian, who makes it possible for us to live in gf warm, clean buildingg they scheme to make the income of the district comply with the necessary expenditures for and adequate curricular and extra-curricular program, they make decisions relative to replacements of worn-out equipment and the installation of new equipment to keep the school plant in an efficient and economicafoperating conditiong and many times they are confronted with problems which demand a declaration of their own ideals and standards of citizenship for which they wish their school to stand. To these people, we wish to extend our heartfelt appreciation for the non-remunerative service they have rendered throughout the years of their terms. Pres. of the Board of Education -- E. J.

INITIATIONHIZYI September 2.0 , 1944 Another fall means another crop of freshmen, and another crop of freshmen means another initiation ceremony. This year's ceremonies , in charge of the sophomore class, were unusually severe, say the martyred freshies . The regalia in which they appeared Friday was as worried as it was amusing to upperclassmen. For instance, LaVere appeared as Wee Willie Winkie, Dick as Betty Blue, Maxine as .Tack Horner, Cecil as Mistress Mary and Betty as Tom, the Piper's son. All the rest, including Virginia S., Kenneth I S., J.D.T., Bob W., John W., Marilyn J., Eleanor B.,'Dale G., Russell K., Richard S., Dale M., and Gordon H. were duly rigged for the occasion and received appropriate treatment' that eveninglfll WHAT DO YOU THINK? September 10, 1945 About this time of year, once a year, someone on the newspaper staff roams the halls seeking everyone's opinions of school in general. Some turned Ollf unprintable, but the naive sophies all had appropriate and relevent remarks to make. Eleanor Bartholomew- Do I have to answer? g LaVere Clay, This is the 1ife! g Betty Eggleston- It's a necessary evil, I guess. : Russell Katzer- Why ask me? : Virginia Simmons- School's okay if you like to work, but who's that crazy? 3 Kenneth Stevens- I don't let it bother me. g J. D., Bob W., and Gordon all agreed that school is swell . Their favorite subjects are basketball, football, and baseball. Homer Ross- Conrad's fine-plenty of gals. Bob Stover, John Wood, Richard Stackhouse could only be reached for comment through the land of dreams, for they were found snoozing behind biology text. Dale Mast- I don't know, and please don't quote me. g Marilyn Jeannoutot- Work's a little tough. : Maxine Wandel- It's getting too deep for me! : Cecil Wehrman- Oh, to be a senior, or at least to act like one! g Deick Leonard- The new teachers interest rl-e.

DISTINGUISHED sEN1oRs May. 1948 At graduation time, many seniors dream of future greatness, but the graduating class of '48 in Conrad High has past and present laurels on which they can rest.

PROPHECY OF THE CLASS OF 1948 Lila Stackhouse and Jay Kell Feeling an uncontrolable ur ge to see the sights of the more distant regions of the world, I put in my application for a berth on the ISKD jet propelled rocket, which leaves the New York port an 10:00. I approached the information booth and who do you think was the attendant? None other than Eleanor Bartholmew, a senior of CHS in '48. We immediately fell to discussing our old high school days. The next stop was to be Merry Old England. But we were disappointed when a stewardess came and told the passengers that they were unable to set the jet' ' down and we would continue on until it would be possible to land. Finally, somewhere in Siberia, we landed, The passengers crowded out onto the barren land. e While looking around, we caught sight- of a small cabinlike hut and immediately set forth to investigate. As we neared it, a small group of dark-skinned children trouped out, followed by their familiar-looking teacher, whom I recognized as Virginia Simmons. I asked Virginia all sorts of questions and found that she had been teaching in Siberia for four years-and she didn't find it a bit lonesome. In fact she said, it was quite a lively business. The jet was pushing off in a few minutes for Paris, so I hastily said farewell. ,In Paris, I sought a hairdresser: feeling that my own travel-worn coiffure was rather out of style. I was given the name of Cecile's as the most elite salon, It was a pleasant surprise to find that it was managed by the famous hair- dresser, Cecil Wehrman. Cecil was still his same, polished self and was eager to hear of his two former classmates that I had met thus far on my trip. The next day, my course went through Switzerland, and into Czechoslovakia, where we landed for more passengers. One of these was a distinguished-looking professor who was none other than Dale Mast. We chatted for sometime of various affairs and Prof. Mast revealed that he was on his way to Patagonia to assist his noted classmate, Miss Betty Eggleston, in a scientific search for the missing link. Betty was making a name for herself in the scientific field and Dale stated that she had actually proved several Hypothesis .true. A truly great mind, hevput it. I was sorry to hurry away but we were scheduled to go oh to Ywhing-Than, China. This distance was covered so quickly that I found myself regretting that almost half of my journey was completed. In Ywhing-Than, I was engrossed in purchasing some beautiful Chinese curios, and was greatly pleased to find thattthe sales manager was -none other than Robert Weatherman, famous CHS athlete. His high-pressured salesmanship and my variety of curious questions made an afternoon pass all to quickly My next stop was scheduled for -Vladivostok and business necessitated an hour's stop there. I was ushered into a large luxurious business office which was expensively, but tastefully, furnished. There I was introduced to a large, important- looking individual. When he learned that I was from Conrad, Iowa, he hurriedly explained that his wife was the former Marilyn Koehler, and that he had met and married her while he was taking a course pertaining to income tax collection, in an American University. He was the customs official for the port of Vladivostok. As we were crossing over Wake Island, our jet acted up and we were forced to land. We were greeted by the sergeant of the police force and I was surprised to find that official-looking person none other than Russell Katzer. Again I had to hurry on my way to Hawaii and again we were forced down at Saipang this time for an overnight stop. I walked into a tourist court and found that the proprietor was familiar. As I signed my name on the register, my eye was attracted to a large, blinking sign advertising Ma's Tourist Court . I tumbled then, and was happy to greet my old friend, LaVere Clay. At Fiji, we had time to witness a game of basketball that was taking place in a sandlot. Evidently, this was a very important game for the coach was jumping up and down and shouting to his players. Someone said that Coach Stackhouse was on the losing end of this game, the first he had lost in years. After the game, I walked over to say hello to Richard Stackhouse, formerly of Conrad. He said he had been coaching basketball for five years and it was his favorite sport. In Hawaii, I visited the school for the deaf and dumb. I was shown into a class room where a class in clay modeling was being taught by none other than Master Richard Leonard. Examples of his clay work were scattered a round the room and they were truly masterpieces. Our next stop was Panama Canal. I rented a car and drove out to see the farnous Culebra Cut. The road was so smooth that I didn't realize how fast I was going until I heard a long, wailing siren behind me. I stopped and waited for the traffic officer to dismount from his jet-cycle, and as he walked toward me I thought the stride was familiar. As he came nearer, I recognized Kenneth Stevens. We chatted for a whilefhe didn't give me a ticket, just for old times sakej. He said he hadn't been to the States in seven years and liked the country and the people of Latin America. Back to United States and Hollywood! After sight-seeing for a day, a friend and I went to a well known radio studio to see the radio-production of Life with Father . When the cast was announced I was not a little surprised to hear that Gordon Hess was playing the leading role of Clarence Day. His performance was excellent and I was sorry I couldn't see him in his dressing room after the play. We drove across town to see a movie featuring a former CHS star, Johnny Wood, the Great Romancer, who was playing in Loves First Chance . I laughingly recalled his home-town roles in Tom Sawyer and Romeo and Juliet . Back- ground certainly makes a man. The Seniors of '48 really got around the world! WE'LL ALWAYS REMEMBER: Eleanor-basketball, letter writing LaVere-drum majorette, leading lady, cheerleader Betty-editor, book worm, office worker Gordon-a student, forgetfullness, football king Russell- 4-H future farmer.

Summary of the Plot fHill-Billy Version, by Richard Stackhouse At the end of the unit on Shakespear's plays, the seniors wrote brief summaries of the plots. Most of them followed a rather sedate pattern, but this senior varied the style. The Montague: and the Capulets were feudin' people. The Montagues had a lone son, Romeo, and the Capulets .had a lone daughter, Juliet, who was the fairest in them thar hills. Romeo first met Juliet at a masquerade ball and it was love at first sight. The wedding was performed by the Friar Lawerence. As a result of this, Mercutlo was killed by Tybalt in a duel, so to save the family rep, Romeo killed Tybalt in a duel. After this Romeo fled and Juliet drank a potion to put her to sleep so she wouldn't have to 'marry Paris. Romeo thought she was deadand drank poison. When Juliet awoke she saw Romeo dead and killed herself with a dagger. The moi-al of the story is: never be a one-woman man! it is too hard on the population. - LAST WILL AND TESTAMENTH We, the Senior Class of the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred forty- eighf. Suffering from corpus delicti or falling of the ashpan, do hereby bequeath the following said articles to the first party of the second part. However, if the second party of the first part, hereafter known as the alias alien without an alibi should abrogate an affidavit of allegation and slap a lien on the old farmstead we will demand a writ of extradition by a bailiff of consanguinity and subpoena a revocation and waive the summons to sue. I'o wit, to woo .as follows: First of all, to Mr. Powers goes Bob Weatherman's height, providing, of course that he makes good use of it. Marilyn Koehler, on leaving the institution, no longer needs her nickname S1op . This goes to Lila. John Wood generously leaves all of his extra A's in bookkeeping to Charlotte. We know she'l1 appreciate his kind gesture. Dale Mast is tired of his class ring, so he leaves it at C. H. S. for the sophomore girls. May the best one win. Unless Cecil goes to Texas to college, he won't be allowed to wear corduroy pants, for as a rule, neither the noise nor bowed legs are allowed. Bob Reel can have them, providing he can develop bowed legs. C. H. S.'s study halls, just can't stand the noise. Eleanor leaves Big Spencer to the class of '5l. She won't be needing him any longer and I'm sure they will appreciate it. We do ask, however, that you let the Coach have him two nights a week. Even though it may be a little worn, by this time from changing hands, Dick Leonard wills his letter sweater to anyone who can affordgoiperfume. Kenny, since he is a big boy now, may break away from his old habit of staying home so much. Therefore, he leaves his quiet evenings at home to Lee Hogle. You can also have what is left of the Chevy, Lee. LaVere graciously bows out, and leaves her oittstanding basketball record to Delores. Please treasure it Delores. It took a lot of hard work and rigorous training to develop such a record. Ginnie has consented to give her driver's license to Jim Brodkway. Just promise, Jim, to make use of it on highway 14. You can also have the Dodge. Gordon wills his wolfish tactics and his way with women to Steve. It will help, we know, Steve, but remember experience is the best teacher. We feel sorry xor Don McClean's figger, so we give him Russe1l's broad shoulders. Donft let anything happen to theni. Our demure little Batty, leaves -al-L of her spare time, and free study periods to Betty Katzer. Richard leaves all of ms excess ambition to Jaye. Richard has shown far too much eagerness for a senior this year. He also leaves his roller skating ability to Beverly Furneau. Lastly, to the teachers, go our old notebooks, our unsigned report cards, our little chunks of green eraser, all our drawings of K1lroy, our best wishes, the little rea check marks they so graciously gave to us, and our apologies for not being better .

The rambunctious editor, Bet Tggleston, with the capable assistance of scissors, Scotch tape, columns of print, and a worried look deserves much credit for the consistent appearance of this perpetual public aggravation. Then came days and weeks of agonizing struggle to turn out this work of noble note . 4-nu Front Row: Lila Stackhouse, Eleanor Bartholomew, Charlotte Coulter, Betty .To Cooper, Dick Leonard, Dick Frederick, Wesley McAllister, Jay Kell, Mrs. Fosness, advisor, Betty Katzer, Jack Healy.

The Armistice Day program on November ll was a major project of the year. A rather elaborate stage setting was built to carry out a special, candle-lighted dedication service honoring the men who served in World Wars I and ll. The American Legion participated in the service and were our special guests. In December, a contribution was made to the fund for boxes of food for German school children. A formal initiation service was held February 26 when Delores Bristley and Lee Hogle were admitted to membership.

HIGHSPOTS OF GAMES The Trojans started season play with St. Marys fMarshal1townj. We lost the game 18 to 0, because we lacked experience and during first quarter Dale Mast was injured and didn't play the rest of the game. Next opponent was Melbourne a team highly rated last year. The Trojans overpowered them Z7 to 12. We defeated the eleven-man football Eldora Training School team, 7 to O. Everyone really liked eleven-man football after that game. Eldora B was next on our list and we added another victory to the string, Z5 to 0. The Weatherman to Katzer passes stood out in this game. The Irish foe returned and we really showed them that they had to play football to beat us this time. We lost by one point, 7 to 6. Homecoming featured Melbourne as opponent and we defeated them 34 to 12. The crowning of the queen was an exciting and colorful addition to this event. We journeyed to Eldora Training School one afternoon to win 13 to 6, It was the only eleven-man team who scored on us. Grundy B was our last game of the season and we added another victory by defeating them 13 to 0. Everyone enjoyed mud s1inging that night, especially John Wood. OCT I-I Q r-r-'jp ii E a as 55 T S E 'A ,E Z 3 1. Q i 5 E TEAM PERSONALITIES AND SCORES The 47 Trojans were a hard fighting and high spirited group of players. They showed the greatest success that has been shown in 'C. H. S. in many years. Lettermen graduating were: Richard Stackhouse, John Wood, Bob Weatherman, Dale Mast, Gordon Hess, and Russell Katzer. Lettermen returning wereg Bob Reel, Don McLean, Jaye Kell, Stephen Price, Maurice Smith, and Jack Healey. The first eleven were--Richard Stackhouse, better known as Stacky , at the centerspot. On the quarterback sneaks Stacky said he carried Weatherman. That's how we got so far. We'-ll miss you at center next year, Stacky . Then came the brains of the outfit, Bob Weatherman. Bob played outstanding football this season and we'll miss those brains next year in both six and eleven-man teams. Gordon Hess played tackle on the eleven-man squad and did an efficient job of tackling. Gordy played center at six man and was very successful in that spot too. .Tohn Wood, who played guard, did a fine job of shutting-up holes in the line. He also enjoyed some mud fights. We'll miss that build of yours next year, John. Russell Katzer was an acrobat at catching .Weatherman's passes. Russell played end on both the eleven-man and six-man teams. Last, but not least, rugged Dale.Mast was the fighting spirit on the football field. His motto was shut up or put up. Mast played fine backfield on the eleven-man squad and end in six-man and did an out- standing job of both. Super-charging Big Spencer Price as a half-back on the eleven-man as well as six-man team. The opponents really knew they hit something after tackling Big Spencer . We'1l be counting on you next year, Spencer. Reel played end -on the eleven-man team as well as on the six-man. Bob caught a lot of passes and he also tackled and blocked hard. Don McLean, a tackle on theeleven-man teaxn, put it over to the opponents that he was there and they would have to move him first before proceeding. He hit hard and really fought all the way. J' aye Kell was a hard-fighting back on the eleven as well as six-man team. Maurice Smith played guard and did a fine job filling up the holes and stopping plays coming his way. He'll be here for a couple years and we'll be depending on him. All the other players deserve a hand for their fine support. A great deal of the season's success was due to the addition of-adequate lighting facilities which were made possible by the generdus contributions of the public. Our sincere thanks to you, friend contributor. Football fans enjoyed the evening games under the bright lights. The weatherman was generous with beautiful, clear evenings. Two rains cleared early enough to make it possible. The familiar tent of the Band Boosters Snack Bar added to the comfort and refreshment of chilly fans.

TEAM PERSONALIT IES Delores Bristley, junior forward, was the mainstay of the teams offense with a high of 95 points. Betty Jo Cooper, who worked in the pivot all year, accounted for 89 points. Donita Brown, a freshman, poured in 70 counters and should be a great help next year. Lila Stackhouse and Beverly Smith saw a considerable amount of action on the floor, and in doing so, flipped in 39 and 26 points, respectively. Eleanor Bartholomew and LaVere Clay, only two seniors on the squad, were regular guards and should be commended for the fight and spirit shown. Joan Reel a freshman, was the other regular, guard. Other players who were frequent substitutes as guards were Betty Lou Johnson and Joyce Long, two very promising freshmen are Isla Mast and Virginia Clay. ll If 'Z J 4 -1 14 31 E 2 3 E GIRLS' BASKETBALL by Wesley McAllister-Robert Reel The 1947-1948 Girls' Basketball team had one of the most unfortunate seasons in years by losing 14 of 16 contests. The single win came from the Liscomb sextet and a tie was played with Whitten. Beaman spoiled Conrad's bid in the Sectional Tournament at New Providence by downing the locals, 38- 24. The letter winners who will graduate are LaVere Clay and Eleanor Bartlfdornew. Those returning will be Delores Bristley, Betty Jo Cooper, Donita Brown, Beverly Smith, Joan Reel, Lila Stackhouse, Joyce Long, and Betty Johnson. Just before the sectional tourney, the girls congregated to elect honorary captains for the year. The captains were judged not only in popularity, but also on scholastic ability, achievements, and contributions to the team. Eleanor Bartholomew was elected from the guard court, and Delores Bristley from the forwards. The squad journeyed to Des Moines to the Girls' State Basketball Tournament on March 4. At the end of the season, the girls' and boys' teams enjoyed a basketball banquet.

BOYS' BASKETBALL bl' Cecil Wehrman- Gordon Hess The lettermen this year were Gordon Hess, Dale Mast, Bob Weatherman, Junior Price, Jay Kell, Russell Katzer, Bob Reel, Jerry Reece, Jerry Dooley, Dale Smith, and Maurice Smith. Others on the traveling squad included Kenneth Stevens and Robert Smith. The first few games this season were little more than experimental affairs, as Coach Powers tried out different combinations in an effort to find five boys who could click. The first five games were dropped by wide margins, but after this the boys really began to play ball. The first victory came at the hands of a good Beaman five, 37-38. After a few close games the boys got back in the win column by upsetting Gladbrook 43-33. Other wins over strong teams were Whitten 38-35 and Grundy Center, 40-3 'WA lg S W 0 R T Lnn...g..,r.-4 A asm..-1 bv wJu.swon-ru BROTHER M.m1a-.., Ma, u. s. . 7 From the Gladbrook win until the county tournament, the fighting Trojans showed local fans the best brand of basketball seen in several years. Their style of play with a lightning-fast break and fast-passing rated them as one of the best teams in Central Iowa. Much credit for the skill these boys developed is due to Mr. Powers expert coaching and the co-operation he received from the boys. The Trojans' chances in the tournaments were ruined when Kell broke his arm in the first game of the county tourney. Although Katzer did a good job of filling in, the team never seemed to click after that, and was eliminated by Dike in the county and by Beahman in the sectional. After the season was completed, the boys enjoyed a trip to the Boys' State Tournament and a banquet with the girls squad.

Smith--Coach Basketball is the most popular of the Junior High School Athletic activities. Emphasis in junior high is placed on teaching thefundamentals of the game rather than on stressing a competitive program. However, enough com- petition is offered to add enthusiasm to the game. The past few years, Conrad Junior High School has made a practice of entertaining an Invitational Junior High Tournament' ' . The following are the scores of games played by the Conrad Junior High Boys' Basketball Team. Conrad 39--Gladbrook 16 Conrad 23--Whitten 13 Conrad 13--Beaman 21 The Annual Invitational Junior High Boys' Basketball Tournament was held at Conrad March 8, 10, 12, 13. Beaman captured the winners' trophy, Union ranked second and Green Mountain placed third. Front Row: Dale Smith, Kenneth Stevens, Jerry Dooley.

TEAM PERSONALITIES The Trojans nrst team forwards were Price and Weatherman. Price was consistantly the high scorer of the team and could score from almost any position. His shots kept Conrad in every game when the going got tough. Weatherman made a good running mate for Price, and could hit pretty well on one-handed set shots. Mast was the tallest man on the squad and usually controlled the rebounds. He was the most improved player on the squad. Kell was the spark-plug of the outfit, and was especially good at sinking two handed set shots from the center of court, and breaking up passes. He saved many garnes for the Trojans with his spectacular play. Hess played opposite him at guard, and helped out a lot on rebounding. 'He didn't score much, but was a valuable part of the team. 1 I 5 E 543 5 2 EQ Front row: James Davis, Teddy Woosley, Leslie Clamons, Jerry Newton, Jack walling, Johnney Dowden, Second row: Jerry Miller, Laurence Stover, Hal Cooper, Roger Hogle, Earl Dean Katzer, Ted Schultz, Mr. Smith.

FORECAST FOR FORTY-EIGHT Prospects for this year's baseball team look very good with almost v .1 the first team of last year returning. Dale Smith and Gordon Hess in the outfield, Russell Katzer, Stephen Price, Jay Kell, and Jerry Dooley in the infield, Bob Weatherman, catcher, and Dale Mast, pitcher are all veterans of last year's team. A possible preview of the team may be se-en from the last year's showing. Last year's team almost won the county tournament, losing to Dike 8-7, and ended the season wining as many as they lost. Russell Katzer, Stephen Price, and .Tay Kell were the heaviest hitters, and Weatherman starred for the Reinbeck Junior Legion Nine during the summer. 5467111 Q17- 25552 5 4 5 51 1 9 4 7 59 1011 12 15 5 5 '73 5.535 14 151617 932,220 IZ l51'4f5 W 78 121 22 25524 255027191 2122 E25 Z8l' NA30f , M 2-226127251395057 , 125Qf:I52L5fi,. 1 1' 7 Q2?f.T 4.

Opal Simmons has been teaching bookkeeping in Richmond, Virginia, and is now living on a tobacco plantation farm near there. Kingdon Stover is now residing in that ever disliked town of Beaman. Dormalee Tranbarger majored in music at Drake and is now a private music teacher in Lincoln. Nebraska. K Charles Tranbarger is the present director of the U. S. Navy Band. Margaret Ann Clarke and her husband are operating a hybrid seed corn plant near Union. Although our class has spread far and wide, I know they still remember the good times- we had in Conrad High School. We can never forget them. I hope to see all of my former classmates at our next annual alumni banquet. CLASS OF 1938 IN 1948 When the prophecy on the preceeding page was written, I suppose it sounded a bit silly and far-fetched to the class, but in some cases it was nearly accurate. Those which proved most accurate were: Wayne Bunn, who has lived in San Diego for some time, but is returning to Conrad this year. William Conrad is raising Poland Chinas, but his locale is somewhat diferent--he's very near Conrad. The rather subtle hint of the possible marriage of Cheryl McAllister and Bethel Hale was none-the-less accurate. Alma Fiscus informs us that she was a beauty operator for a while, but prefers her present occupation as Mrs. Ray Parker, Ir. Gerald Ralston ran true to form and is the barber prophesied but can anyone tell us if he really curls hair, too? Opal Simmons is living on a farm, but she has choosen to stay in Iowa. Donald Hughes was killed in action during World War II. A number of the girls have choosen more domestic occupations than were cited ten years ago. Thelma Carnes, Marjorie Biesnecker, Lurane Koehler, Kathryn Connell, Dormalee Tranbarger, Isabelle McCoy, Carol Hess, Margaret Hraaak, Margaret Clarke, Betty Allen, are among the present housewives. Kingdon Stover resides not in Beaman, But Waterloo while Charles Tranbarger is directing lumber, not musicians. Phyllis Dostal, evidently the author, was not included in the imaginary saga.
