Class History In the fall of 1951, a group of seventeen hungry Freshmen, willing but frighten- ed, gathered for the long journey on the high seas of knowledge (sometimes the waves got a little rough). They were as follows: Larry Bellamy, Darrel Burndage, Don Ciem, Dallas Fowler, Jack Hadenfeldt, Beverly Hargens, Walter Johnson, Norman Kirschbaum, Fred Meyer, Lela Meyer, Dennis Murfin, Jerry Myers, Wanda Myers, Ray Poehler, Gary Rogers, Frances Runge, and Patsy Stairs. Early in the Freshman year Fred and Lela Meyer decided to leave us and at the end of the year Walter Johnson was enticed away by the promise of a good job. In our Sophomore year, with Seaman Anton Lawry at the helm, Gary Rogers was swept over-board and lost. We, however, added for a new crew member. Bob Luther. During the middle of the third year at sea Norman Kirschbaum transferred to a different ship. Mess Stewardess, Miss Johnson, tried desperately to save Patsy Stairs and Ray Poehler, who were dying of indigestion, but they went anyway. Sandy Hayden decided to pay fare and boarded our ship. We started to set sail once again but were detained when we decided to give a little entertainment at Carnegie Hall. We decided on the play, The Antics of Andrew . During the early part of our Senior year Sandy Hayden became seasick and transferred to Sick Bay. Rear Admiral Nelson took over command and guided us through the Storm of Final Exams. Chief Petty Officer Colman instructed us in the use of the gyro-compass and we navigated the Gulf of the Senior Play by the channel of Mr. Merkle’s Muddle. This voyage is not completed; this ship is not anchored in home port; this story has yet to be ended. 12
