State and Sttep L fyoteue i (Class Prnphecn While sitting in their peaceful surburban home one warm May evening in 1953, MR. AND MRS. RICHARD STREITWIESER sat looking over their high school annual. As GRETCHEN opened the 1943 year-bcok a cloud of smoke rose from the paper. ,and there stood a funny little bright-eyed man with dazzling green hair and a jolly pink face. ‘Who on earth?” said DICK, astounded at what he saw. Oh, I’m the ghost of the class of 43 and tonight, ten years after graduation, I am allowed to live—but only briefly. To the happiest couple of the class I can give one wish—anything you want.” DICK and GRETCHEN looked at each other and then at the open annual. Together they asked if they might be allowed to see what some of the members of their class were doing. The funny little man took a long scroll from his pocket, “We’ll start and go down the list—I can’t stay long, so let’s begin.” First, they went to New York City and there, sure enough, in the Ayres’ Institute was JO CAROL who was trying to find a way to save pencils and thus use no raw materials in the manufacturing process. In the same city we found JUNE BECKMAN showing the latest Fashions at a style show for the 400.” HENRY AYERS was found in Brooklyn editing the Brooklyn Every Once in A While Gazette. On his staff was BOB ESTES and HARRY JACOBSEN who sat in the office all day trying to figure out startling news that would make the Gazette a top-notch paper. In the same city they found JOE CADWELL who was publicity agent for the brilliant new Opera star, MAXINE WELDIN. Then to Washington. D. C., to see senators CALVIN BROWN and ROBERT CLAUSSEN who were trying desperately to pass a bill to install learning machines in the schools to save wear and tear on the pupils. Washington was also found to be the home of JOHN BOWLING and the world’s largest bowling alley. Known all ever the world were, Bowling’s Bowling Alley. JAMES CAYWOOD and CLYDE BOOKS were found in Washington. They were running the Books and Caywood” Bus Line. Probably a throwback from their high school days, but both of them would start out on the interurban bus every morning. The employees always wondered if they would return. But when the bus came back there would be the two men laughing about trips of other years. Then to Richmond. Virginia, went the happy trio. Here they found DONALD DOUGLASS. JACK HIGGINS. FLOYD DEAL, and ORVILLE HAROLD getting in shape for the professional track meet. Their slogan was If you try to train—you’ll never gain- anything.” At the University of Virginia they found AGNES SWICK and FAYE DOUGLASS studying for their final degree. They have reached their goal and will take positions as instructors in the fine new University at Gates. Nebraska. Then with a sweep of his hand the little old man took them down to Houston. Texas, where FRANCES and FLORENCE FARMER were teaching the ladies of Houston how to make the food you have go twice as far. FRANCES told how to make it go and FLORENCE explained the twice as far. Then they were off again. This time to Los Angeles. California, where they found MRS. BOB CHRISTIAN as JEANNE FISKE. MRS. CLARENCE GESTWITE. nee BETTY JEAN WARNER, and LYLE VANHORN and his wife the former LUCILLE RYAN. The four couples lived side by side on the sweetest little street in the city; two blocks down lived LaVERNE IVERS- uh—oh I mean MRS. CALVIN CLYMO. The five girls were such friends,” said GRETCHEN, Isn’t this a small world.” DICK was a little worried that he was going to miss the Pacific Ocean but right then they found themselves on the beach. GRETCHEN waved hello” to a girl on a small boat. It’s MAURINE HUFFAKER.” she said happily. “Yes,” said DICK and there’s BIGGERSTAFF to prove that school romances are O. K.” After talking a few minutes the old man informed them they had better hurry. San Francisco was beautiful. And who should be found here but BETTY ROSSOW, the foremost woman foreign correspondent of the Century. BETTY had made herself a balloon out of her old si k stockings and was floating on all of her assignments. Suddenly GRETCHEN and DICK find themselves at home. Feeling a little sorry that they would never see their old friend, the ghost of ’43 again.

The band also served as a background for the choral production given in November by the music department. Second semester activities included a concert to further the sale of war bonds and the providing of entertainment at the Custer County Basketball Tournament. Onciteibia The formal fall concert was the first of its kind to be presented in Broken Bow. During the balance of the year the orchestra played for Red Cross First Aid Graduation, and gave several concerts during the winter and a spring concert was also presented. A unique and novel thing about the orchestra was the use of two pianos. This was unusual because two pianos are seldom used in high school orchestras.

Boys’ glee consisted of seventeen boys who were chosen in the same manner. The two glee clubs merged and formed the choir. These groups gave a choral production, “The Changeover 1492-1942,” which portrayed the history of the United States in musical pantomine, and they also performed in several Christmas services for the student body and a number of churches. Their largest enterprise of the year was Victor Herbert's opera, “Sweethearts,” which was given several times this spring with very favorable results. Toward the latter part of the year these organizations gave an impressive concert of sacred music in which each group performed individually. During the second semester, the students took part in recitals which were given to develop interest in musical activities and to encourage soloists. GIgM. Play Who's Crazy Now?''-—Gerald Bell The scene of this hilarious comedy is laid in the reception room of the Sunny Vale Insane Asylum where a number of school teachers, who are mentally unbalanced, are trying to educate their pupils. A love story develops when the niece of the superintendent meets one of the young staff doctors but each thinks the other an inmate of the asylum and consequently this too is treated in a humorous manner. When the annual went to press the cast for “Who’s Crazy Now?” had not been chosen. FOURTH ROW—Jane McCleery, June Beckman, Vala Dawn Davis, Ruth Miller, Jean Stockwell.

Si(U4,K Duties and aims of the Sioux are to conduct rallies and pep campaigns, promote school spirit and cheer the boys on to victory. Members of the Sioux were selected by a popular vote of season ticket holders who are known as the “Tribe,' and the football boys, and from this group cheer-leaders were elected as follows: Margie Coble, Phillip Gardner, Nona Hawk, and Gretchen Smith. A party was given for the football squad and one was also given for the Sioux and their friends. Officers of the Sioux were Jane McCleery, President; Nona Hawk, Vice President: Jean Stockwell, Secretary; and Vala Dawn Davis, Treasurer. The music department undertook a most difficult production when they selected Victor Herbert’s light opera Sweethearts’ for their major musical activity. The opera provided valuable training for the individuals who participated and much pleasure for those who had occasion to observe this production. The plot is centered around Sylvia, the lost princess of Zilania, and the several politicians who, through her, wish to gain control of that country. After much confusion she finds her true love, Franze, who very conveniently would have been prince of Zilania had she not been found.

The squad was under the direction of Coach Ed Kelly. Coach Kelly built his squad around four veterans. Dick Streitwieser, Rodney Reed. Marvin Booth, and Jack Higgins. This squad won three games, tied two, and lost three making it a better than average season. After three weeks of practice under the new coach, the Indians played their first game on the home field beating Arcadia 20 to 6. In this game many of the new men went into action and received their first taste of football. The next Friday the Sargent Bulldogs invaded the Indian camp and gave the Indians a good fight being beaten by only 6 points. In the fourth quarter with the score 13 to 7. the Bulldogs pushed down to the Indi3n 10 yard line but the game ended at this point with the score 13 to 7. On October 2. the Indians filled the Rimblin Wreck and journeyed to Central City. After outyarding the Bison 2 to 1, the Indians came out on the short end of a 7 to 6 score. Next the Indians played the Cozad Haymakers,” a new foe from the Southwest Conference. This game W3s full of the old thrills and chills as the two teams traded touchdowns all during the first half. The Indians came back the second half and held the Haymakers” scoreless while they proceeded to score. The game ended 41 to 19. On October 19. the Indians lost their second game. This one. a hard fought battle, to St. Paul. Early in the game Marvin Booth, Broken Bow’s fullback, was injured and had to be taken from the field. In the second quartci Clyde Books, left end, received a broken finger. Handicapped as they were the Indians were beaten 21 to 13. The Ord Chanticleers were the Indians next foe. In this game the two teams were so evenly ma ched that it was well into the fourth quarter before either team scored. Ord scored first and then kicked off to the Indians who marched 70 yards to the goal line. The game ended 6 to 6. Loup City then came to Broken Bow for the last game on the home field. In this game the Indians seemed overly confident and as a result the small fast Loup City backs proved to be too much for them. The game ended. Loup City 12 and Broken Bow 6. The Gothenburg game played in November proved to be the most heart breaking of the year. The Indians had three touchdowns called back because of penalties. The Swedes were outdowned and outyarded but the score ended 7 to 7. Thanksgiving came and with it the traditional game with Ansley. From the comparative scores it looked as if it should be an easy victory for the Indians. However Anslely scored in the first quarter on a fumble and made the extra point. The Indians could not make their plays click and it was late in the fourth quarter before they scored. The kick for the extra point was wide and the game ended in an upset 7 to 6. tf-ootball CLYDE BOOKS—B—Senior End Clyde played a hard fighting game from the start to finish.

The team was under the leadership of three different coaches this year. Coach Ed Kelly opened the season but was called to the army the day of the first game. Supt. H. A, Schroeder then took over the coaching duties until mid season when Coach Wayne Beck came to us from Sidney. The Indians won 13 of the 19 games on the schedule and were never beaten badly. In the first game with Kearney the Indians played one of the fastest games ever seen on the home floor and were nosed out by four points. Callaway was the next game and another defeat was in line for the Indians. After two defeats the Indians went to work and won three games from Sargent, Arnold, and Ansley. All were decisive victories. The team then took on the tall, slender Ord team on the home floor. This game was nip and tuck throughout till the third quarter when the Ord boys height gave them a six point margin which they never lost. After the Ord loss the Indians went on a five game winning spree. They won from Comstock and Mason City on the home floor and from Ravenna, and Arcadia on their floor. Broken Bow’s team then traveled to Sargent to play in the Conference tourney. The boys beat Sargent in the afternoon and played Ord in the evening losing by the heartbreaking score of 30 to 26. The team then played another county team, Anselmo and beat them 56 to 21. The Indians were hosts to the county tournament this year. In their first game they beat Merna 50 to 18. The next opponent was Callaway who earlier in the season, on their own floor, had beaten the Indians. The boys avenged their previous loss and thereby won the right to play Comstock in the finals. This game started off bad for the Broken Bow boys, but they recovered from their attack of over-confidence and went on to win the game by a good margin. Broken Bow then played the Lexington “Minutemen” on the home floor and at the end of the first half it looked as if the Indians would win for they had the “Minutemen” under control, but Lexington came back and took over, winning by 8 points. A return game was played on the Mason City floor. This turned out to be a rough and tumble with the team coming out the victors. In the District Class A Basketball Tournament the Indians drew Minden for their first game. This proved to be a very exciting game with the boys closing a 10 point gap in the last 3 minutes only to lose by some lucky long shots. This loss to Minden officially ended the 1942-43 season. fiacJz THIRD ROW—James Caywood, Jack Higgins, Coach Beck. SECOND ROW—Merrill Neth, Clyde Books.

The first meet was a triangular held between Merna, Broken Bow, and Anselmo. The Indians walked away with practically every first in this meet and won it by a lop-sided score. The Indians next went to the “Wranglers” invitational meet at Burwell. Here a small squad placed third behind Ord and Burwell. The next day Higgins, Gardner, and Booth went to the Gothenburg relays where Gardner placed fifth in the pole vault and Higgins tied for fourth place in the high jump. The 1942 Conference meet was held at Burwell. Here again Ord and Burwell placed ahead of the Indians. In this meet Drake and Higgins set a new record in the high jump at 5 feet 1(H inches while Foglesong set a new record in the discus with a throw of 125 feet 8 inches. The County meet was held at Merna. The Indians walked away with this meet also. The boys took almost all the firsts and plenty of seconds, thirds and fourths. Allen Gardner had a field day winning the 100 yard dash, the 200 yard dash, and the pole vault. Four of the boys went to the state meet but failed to place in the finals. With the 1943 season just around the corner the boys are getting into shape. Due to gas rationing there will be only three or four meets that the Indians will attend.
