PARTIES The high school classes and their sponsors have had a number of good parties this year. The Freshmen were the first to have a party and they invited the Seniors to accompany them to Hannibal to the skating rink and later to a show. Mr. Smith provided transportation in his school bus. The Freshmen were also the class to have the last party of the year. They invited the faculty and student body to a party held at Buzzards Roost, near Florida, Missouri. The Sophomores Invited the Freshmen to a party at the skating rink and later attended a show at the Orpheum. For their second party the Sophomores invited the Junior Class to a woinor roast held on the banks of Salt River near the Asher Bridge. The Juniors invited the Sophomores to a party at the skating rink and snow at Hannibal. Later in the year they invited the high school teachers and stu- dents to a party at the skating rink. Mr. Smith provided the transportation. The Seniors, because of their busy schedule, have had only one party this school year. They held an all school party in the gymnasium. Everyone attending was dressed tacky and prizes were presented to the tackiest dressed persons. Shirley Salsman and Thomas Vahle received first prize, while Sara E. Cowden and Bobby A. Palmer received second prize. SENIOR DAY The Senior Class, accompanied by their sponsor, Mrs. Fanning, and Mr. Dick Wisner, attended Senior Day which was held at the Northeast Missouri State Teachers College at Klrksvllle, Missouri, April 9, 1948. The program, held in Kirk Auditorium, consisted of several numbers by the college band, opening remarks by Forrest L. Crooks, greetings by President Walter H. Ryle, selections by the college quartet and an address by Mr. Roe 3artle, an attorney from Kansas City, Missouri. In the afternoon we attended a one act play presented oy the colie-e stu- dents, visited the John R. Kirk Memorial and enjoyed an interesting tour through the School of Osteopathy. After visiting some of the storeB we returned home feeling that this day would always remain a favorite in our memories. ■ - ■. GIRLS' BASKETBALL The girls' 1947-'48 season was a very successful one.

Yes indeed . They were so anxious to know what would be taking place in their lives and in the lives of their fallow classmen five years from now that they made an appointment with Professor Zero Zero Plus, a highly recommended prophet. Of course we shall never know everything they found out about the future of the Seniors of 1948 but they did divulge the following information. Donald Calhoun is working as a farmhand for Henry Pabst. He has worked out most of the seven years Mr. Pabst required of him before giving Stella s hand in U marriage. Frances Herring has dyed her hair red and has Joined the All American Red Heads—a girls basketball team. Paul Reeves has become third vice-president of the International Shoe Fac- tory at Hannibal but he has to take out 50% of his income in shoes for the little feet that patter around his house are growing in number. Harold D. Lieurance is a baker and is Just rolling in dough. Patsy Hickerson has graduated from a Plumbers school for wosea. She has a prospering little business in Center. During her spare moments she is studying bit parts in plays. Peggy Carter is with the Rlngling Brother's Circus as a tight rope walker. She has Just become engaged to the elephant washer who turns out to be our good friend Don Chenoweth. Anna Schnetzer is happily married to her first love and listens intently every evening for the putt putt of a Ford truck which heralds the coming of Eugene. Adeline Anderson, head bookkeeper for the Center State Bank, is at home suffering from shock and wounds received while resisting a bank robber. Her pretty nurse is none other than our own Marilyn Schaffer who has Just graduated from St. Mary's at Quincy. Adeline is her first case. J. W. McIntosh remains single but still quite popular with the ladies. The lady of the moment, John Kohler, never lacks the little attentions that make J. W. popular—he never forgets candy and flowers. Glorietta Egbert married Spud Lewellen soon after leaving school and we see them now fresh as daisies as they alight from a huge air liner in San Francisco where Gloria is appearing as a concert singer. Kathryn Cowden has given up costume designing and is now making last minute plans for the elaborate church wedding that she and Horace Berry have planned. We find Rex Cragen chief chef at the Mark Twain Hotel in Hannibal. He has persuaded Ruth Briggs to resign as President of the Maiden Ladies Club of Ralls County by promising to do all the cooking in their home while she pursues her her executive interests in other fields. Shirley Kohler, after completing a course in beauty culture, refused to marry Jack Palmer until he gave up truck driving and learned the barber trade. They are quite busy in their respective trades. Everett Pabst, after trying a number of odd Jobs, has finally decided to quit drifting. He and Thomas Vahle have bought the Ralls County Motor Company. Thomas is head of the mechanical department and Everett is the super car sales- man. Jim Brown has persuaded Shirley Roberts to give up her teaching career to become his wife. They are living on a farm west of Center and during the school term Jim drives a school bus. We see Imogene Whitaker settled on a nice little farm, too. She and Jim have started a poultry ranch. Imogene's turkey's have taken the prize at. all the local fairs as well as the State. She is now planning a turkey dinner for the reunion of the class of 48.
