May he make a private fishing hole out of his bath tub. Second, to Mr. Culbertson, we leave all the dimes he collected for some purpose. Someday may he be able to buy himself a new Ford. Third, to Miss Baars, we leave all the music that we didn't receive I's on at con- test that she may have something to remember us by. Fourth, to Mr. Ihnen, we leave all our left over pages from our bookkeeping books. May he put them to good use next year. Fifth, to Miss Fortna, we leave all our romantic inclinations. May she use them as she sees fit. Sixth, to Mrs. Pettersen, we leave all our old quiz papers. May she use them as scratch paper in Pennsylvania next year. Seventh, to Mr. Lockhart, we leave all the ability we have for ironing clothes, that before too long in the future he will be able to iron pleated skirts. Eighth, to Mr. Hansen, we leave all the paint he scraped off the bus so that he may use it for a new paint job on his car. Ninth, to Swede Batt and Cliff Abbas, we leave all the mud we tracked into the school. May they use it in their gardens to grow nourishing vegetables. Tenth, to Madonna Vogel, we leave all our gripes about the mimeograph machine. May she make good use of them when talking Mr. Castor into buying a new one. Each graduate doth also wish to bequeath a portion of his individualism to the mem- bers of the coming senior class: I, Judy Woltz, do will and bequeath all the stories left from our gab sessions to Helen Harms, and my love for a certain Tyke boy to Judy Weiske; may her results be as reward- ing as mine. I, John Smidt, do will and bequeath my height to Pamela Andrews, that she may use it to see things that she has to look up to now, and my exquisite riding ability to Lois Lichter. May she not have as many callouses as I have. I, Deloris Ackerman, do will and bequeath all my love for some of the human species to Helena Meyers, so she may have as much enjoyment with them as I have, and my ability to roll a basketball between a forward's legs to Sherry Bernau. I, Ladell Olson, do will and bequeath my ability to sing to Dennis Shipler, that he may rejoin mixed chorus and glee club and give Miss Baars the same happy, thrilling days that I did, and my haircut to Grover Giddings, which he liked so well. May his grow out and be as long as mine some day. I, Roberta Hamilton, do will and bequeath my skating ability to Linda Larson so that she may have as much fun as I have had, and all the tight spots I get into to Gordon Gid- dings. May he get out of them better than some of the spots that I have not gotten out of. I, Edith Smith, do will and bequeath my floor burns from skating to Judy Bonney and my driving ability to Margret Moore. May she never use it. I, Gary Nauman, do will and bequeath my ability to drive my motorcycle to Harris Harms, and my car to Donna Teeter. May they find as much enjoyment with them as I have found. I, Barbara Dremmel, do will and bequeath my ability to open my mouth at the wrong time to LeRoy Davis, and my ability to stay out of difficult situations to Barbara Parsons. May she never get into these situations in the future. I, David Stewart, do will and bequeath my convertible to Marvin Peterson so that he can watch airplanes with the top down, and my ability to talk in the study hall to Gary Ackerman. May he soon overcome his shyness. I, Judy Hinckley, do will and bequeath my tarnished horn and position in band to Gary Gifford, and my ability to make last minute dashes to study hall for roll call to Patty Groen. May she never be late. I, Eugene Heerdt, do will and bequeath my 38 chevy to Richard Johnson and my pocket radio to Clifford Curtis. May he use it for the latest news as much as I did. I, Karen Bernau, do will and bequeath my fondness for Chevies to Sheryl Smith and all my trips to Algona, to go skating, to Wayne Christenson. May he have all the fun I did. I, J. D. Andrews, do will and bequeath my curly hair to Grover Giddings and my ability to play bass horn to Shirley Schwietert so she can get good, strong tones out of her flute. Any beneficiary attempting to change or disrupt the provisions of this last will and testament will be deprived of the usual privileges given to the students of this high school. Furthermore, he or she will be punished by washing all the windows in the school with a toothbrush and must keep the library in PERFECT condition for one semester. On September 2, 1946, fifteen bright, shining and eager youngsters made their way either with older brothers and sisters or their mothers, to the Burt Public School where they were greeted by their teacher. Miss Edel. This day began their twelve year stretch. The members of this illustrious class were: Deloris Ackerman, Shirley Ackerman, J. D. Andrews, Karen Bernau, Clifford Curtis, Dale Cushman, Barbara Dremmel, Grover Gid- dings, Marlene Haack, Judith Hinckley, Jerry Lewis, Ladell Olson, Barbara Parsons, Gene Ward, and Judith Woltz. In the first six weeks Gene Ward moved to Minnesota. During the summer Miss Edel became Mrs. Keeneth Hammerstrom and in the fall was again at the door to greet us. Our class increased by three people: Paul Kern, Gary Woods, and Denny Grubb. On the third step of our ladder our teacher was Miss McMahon. We lost Dennis Grubb and Gary Woods during the year but gained Marlin Olson, who left again after nine weeks, and Eugene Heerdt. Our teacher was again Miss McMahon in our fourth year. Carroll Jenkins entered our class and Deloris Ackerman moved at the end of the fifth six-weeks. During the year Gary Koslowski and Donald Kenne both entered and dropped. In the fifth grade we had two teachers, Mrs. Virgil Schrader and Norma Dutting. Deloris Ackerman realized her folly in leaving us and rejoined the class at the beginning of the second semester. As our climb on the ladder progressed we were headed in our sixth year by Miss Mildred Setter. Gladys Jansen joined us at the beginning of the year and dropped at the end of nine weeks. Donald and Helen Scherbonda entered during the fourth week and dropped during the seventh week to move to Monona. Roberta Hamilton joined during the seventeenth week of school. Eugene Heerdt moved at the beginning of the fifth six-weeks. As the seventh grade class of 1953 sat in their room the first day of school we had one new member. Her name was Darlene Gifford. 15 As the class started Its eighth year we were joined by Gary Nauman, and in 1955 the Burt High School was blessed with a new crop of Freshmen who were eagerly looking for- ward to their last four years of school. Little did the school know what this class would come up with next. At the beginning of the year the class was rejoined by Eugene Heerdt. David Stewart, Jerold Fish, and Howard Chipman also joined the class. On October 11, Darlene Gifford left and on November 5, Howard Chipman left to return to Austria. During the summer Ladell Olson moved but as we continued our climb we gained John Smidt in our sophomore year and lost Jerold Fish on Jan. 18th. The class, one never to give up, kept climbing and entered our junior year. We picked up Gene Cummings at the beginning and Ladell Olson realized his mistake, and again be- came a member on January 21. Gene Cummings dropped from the ladder on October 11 and Shirley Ackerman on December 19. Then came the last and final step. We had reached the top and to help us on our merry way was Edith Smith. Of the original fifteen members there are five who have gone all the way through school together. They are: Karen Bernau, Barbara Dremmel, Judy Hinckley, Judy Woltz, and J. D. Andrews. Good Luck for the future to the class of 1958! ! I was wondering recently what had become of the members of the Class of 58. Because my curiosity became so aroused, I returned to the fair city of Burt and called on a young bride, the former Judy Woltz. Talking to Judy, we find out many things about the Class. Karen Bernau and Roberta Hamilton are doing their best trying to catch the eyes of the young pilots while trying to keep their jobs as airline stewardesses. Edith Smith has become successful in the laboratory of science with the wonderful help of her assistant, Deloris Ackerman. John Smidt, who coaches basketball at the University of Iowa, has become famous for coaching the top team of the season. David Stewart now has a TV show of his own which receives the highest rating in the world. He is having J. D. Andrews on his show. J. D. is the noted Academy Award winner for the show, The Girls and I . Judy tells us there are many of her classmates who stayed in Burt. Gary Nauman now has his own garage in Burt. His main occupation is building and repairing hot rods. Judy has just received a long distance telephone call from Judy Hinckley. She said that she is going to teach fourth grade in Burt. Barbara Dremmel, the chief telephone operator, soon made this known around town. Eugene Heerdt is running his own dairy farm, while Ladell Olson is doing the account- ing for the Burt lumberyard, elevator, and bank. Well, that covers the Class of '58 who has gone out into the world to try to do their best. 16 SUNDAY, MAY 18, 1958 Piano Prelude.....................................................ShirleV Schwietert Processional ...........................................

They won few games following these but had a lot of fun and learned more about the game thus developing sportsmanship. iSoys { Basketball Garry Davis, Dennis Shipler, Wayne Christensen, David Stewart, Ladell Olson, J.

A lot of hard practice overcame the graduation of four members of last years team. Two new additions to our trophy case are the County Tournament trophy and State Line Conference trophy. With a lot of good talent coming up the Bears should have an- •other good season next year.
