SENIOR CLASS WILL We the class of 1953, being of sound and dis- posing mind and memory, and calling to mind the frailty and uncertainty of our existing life and being desirous of settling our worldly affairs, make and publish this, our last will and testament, hereby revoking and making null and void all other last wills and testaments by us heretofore made. And as to our worldly estate, and all property real, and personal, or mixed, of which we shall die seized and possessed, or to which we shall be entitled at the time of our decease, we devise, bequeath and dispose thereof in the manner following to-wit: James Allen Adomeit wills his ability to cut up in play practice to Glen Connor. Phyllis Buxton wills her gabby noon hours to Doris Schram. Mary Ellen Craig, being of VERY sound mind wills her mental capacity to Tehlma Hobson. Shirley Dehmel wills her way with the Diamonds to Norma Jean Zuellig. Shirley Garfield wills her unexcused absences to Dale Schumann and Kenny Gray. Marjorie Grooms leaves the care of Mr. Greene's typewriter to Emma Reis provided that Emma will dust it every day. Joe Hannah leaves his uncanny ability to pester cer- tain young ladies in American History class to Glenn Harris and Eugene Duranseau. Zada Rae Harris, being very glad to be rid of History class, wills her black and blue marks to Carol Ann Morse. (Better watch out, boys! Carol can swat back!) Willa Hathaway wills her histrionic ability (which according to Webster means the ability to act) to Ann Hubinger. Kay Kramer wills her bright green Kaisers and her knit suits to Nancy Fent.
