By rocket-ship we will visit the class of '49. Snap on your goggles, fasten your safety belts, and we'll be off. As we leave Clayton, we fly over the farm of Rosemary and Jim Moore. Below we see Rosemary feeding her Poland China pigs while Jim tells her how. As we venture south, we pass the 13-room ranch home of Mary Benson and Earl Lierly. Earl farms while Mary teaches piano to her triplets. (Boys of course!) Nearing Springfield we see Junior Walton driving the State Road Truck. Of course he's the State Road Commissioner. (Like father, like son.) Leaving Springfield we go to old St. Louie. There we see Johnnie Barrigar pitching for the St. Louis Cardinals, also his cute wife and BLACK HAIRED SON. Our next journey we visited Iowa, the good old corn belt, and there we saw Marion Marsh coaching basketball with one hand and pitching hay with his other. We visited the multimillionare, Berniece Davis, in Sunny California, who is now president of the Davis Telephone Company. While there, we went over to Hollywood and saw young and handsome motion picture producer, James W, Graham, who has employed Roselee Shepherd as his secretary. He is also part-time admiral on the Queen Mary. While in Rome we ran onto Mrs. Stevens, spending her vacation visiting the places she has been teaching about. She speaks excellent Latin. She told us Mr. Scott has retired from teaching and has a nice farm near Carthage and for a hobby, he is raising hamsters. We found Surgeon Mary Margaret Coggeshall at Barnes Hospital preparing for an operation upon Dick Clark, who has been seriously bitten by the Love Bug. While in New York, we had a nice back-stage talk with Bob March, a concert pianist. He is playing with the New York Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra. We saw Glenn Buss running a dairy farm in Holland equipped with atom milkers, which inventor David Campbell perfected. We found out that Mr. Skouby is farm advisor now and does a good job at it. Continuing on our journey, we went to Champaign and watched ant'exciting basketball game. Guess who the winning teams' coach wasânone other then Coach Raymond J. Ross!!! We wanted to go to a good stage play on our excursion, so we went to Chicago to see John's First Wife , starring none other than Johnny Jefferson and just by a coincidence Betty had produced it. Stopping at Pana, Illinois, we visited Miss Rust, who is now teaching music in a girls' school. (And kids she's still single.) Do we really see Marilyn Leenerts taking dictation from the President of the United States? Goodness sakes, she's his personal secretary. In Panama Canal we get a glimpse of Lavoie Ackelson swabbin' decks with hubby Gerald Bowman as captain of the vessel. Well! Could it beâyes it is. There's Bob Artis as a barker at the sideshow on Coney Island. We stopped in Honolulu and talked to Duane Kestner, navy uniform and all, dancing the samba in one of the city's largest nightclubs. Duane told us that Harry Pratt, who is in the Navy had decided that After his salt-water days he was going to settle down and raise a family to keep the Navy supplied. Our last journey was at the Coffee Shop on Highway 24 to see Glen Vollbracht. We had quite a surprise because the Coffee Shop is now a combination radio store and night club named the Tiny Twitit . Our rocket-ship has lost all of its evergy so we will have to put it away till next; year. am-jKitm mt-rmm.a ' 'vssfr ft . .'. - .'A i'l i'T ' cf.

S We, the Seniors, bequeath to Mr. Scott a strong will power to cope with any situations that may arise with the Seniors next year. We, the Seniors, bequeath to Mr. Clapper everything that we had to dp with the annual and all our carefree ways when work was to be done. We, the Seniors, leave to Mrs Jefferson all the good grades and good times in English and play practice in hopes she will be as sweet to the Seniors next year as she was to us. We, the Seniors, leave to Mr. Ross our loyalty in standing by him in the hour of need, despite all the trouble we may have caused him. We, the Seniors, leave Mrs Evans our appreciation for the wonderful cooking aromas that drifted up to the study hall, when we were all starved. We, the Seniors, leave to Mrs Stevens the Latin language in hopes that next year the Latin class will speak fluently. We, the Seniors, leave to Miss Rust all our musical talent especially in girls' chorus. We, the Seniors, leave to the Juniors all our dignified and quiet ways. Maybe when they are Seniors they will be just as poised as we were. We, the Seniors, leave to the Sophomores our studious actions in the study hall, because we know they are always being called down. We, the Seniors, leave to the Freshmen our bold and daring way in hopes that when they are Seniors they will not be so shy. I, Harry Pratt, bequeath my excellent shooting ability in basketball to Frederick Ball and may he make as good a record as I did. I, Bob Artis, bequeath my ability to sleep in the study hall and classes and get away with it, to Bobbie Breneman, who also has a goofl start. I, David Campbell, bequeath to David Knight my names and innocence. He may need them when he goes to the office to get excuses. I, Duane Kestner, bequeath to Clarence Stevens my gift of gab. I, Marilyn Leenerts, bequeath to Mary Wear my cute giggle. We, Rosemary Roy and Mary Jane Benson, bequeath to Nedda Jefferson our height and all our charming ways. We, Lowell Tenhouse.and Glenn Buss,bequeath to Glen Mixer our tactful ways with the women. He already has a good start by having a car. We, Marion Marsh and Bob March, bequeath to Bobbie Breneman some of our height and especially our singing abilities. We know that he already has a good start by singing at the Junior Class Play. I, Berniece Davis, bequeath my good nature and sweet ways to Frances Coggeshall and may she have success in her Senior year. I, Margaret Coggeshall, bequeath to Alberta VonHolt my ability to get along without men. She shouldn't feel so bad that Dorothy has beaten her time. I, Glen Vollbracht, bequeath to Ronald Brlcker my success with the electric bell and when he is a Senior, he should pay more attention to his studies and not to the National Guard. I, Johnny Barrigar, bequeath to Frederick Ball my long and curly locks. He needs something to attract the women. I, Jim Graham, bequeath my quiet ways to Wilbur Steinkuhler. I, Junior Walton, bequeath to Clarence Stevens my devilish ways. I, Dick Clark, bequeath to David Knight my techniques with the women. I, Lavoie Ackelson, bequeath to Minniar Kindhart my carefree ways and ability to get along with men. I, Roselee Shepherd, bequeath to Raola Hapke my late hours in hopes that when she is a Senior she can stay out later. In witness whereof, we, the class of 1914-9, have hereunto set our hand and seal this twenty-seventh day of May, in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and forty-nine. We, the Seniors of 'ii9 Hate to leave you all behind; But all good things must come to an end, Vhile we go out, more will come in. When we are gone, we'll think of everyone. And the foolish time we wasted and spent; And in the future years to come. We'll wonder where the times all went. Y hen we leave, our lives begin To have, we hope, less defeats than wins. When we are gone from the hall3 of knowledge, We all will be working or away at college. We used to groan in the study halls Waiting to leave these prison walls. But now that the day is drawing near. We begin to worry about next year. The time has come, our work is done. And we are graduatingâ And come next fall, we'll miss you all And your matriculating. The leaves will go, the fall will come. And you'll be reciting. The bell will ring, your books you'll bring Although the sun's inviting. School will come and school will go; We say we're better out o' it. But deep inside, we'll miss you allâ That's the awful thing about it. Now we think of the fun we had. And to leave, makes us very sad. But you will manage without us well. So we, the Seniors, say farewellI WmstAU V4W ItM 1 i % | On a beautiful September day in nineteen hundred forty-five, there came to the threshold of Clayton High School twenty-eight green Freshmen. Having no choice of subjects, we struggled with Algebra, English I, General Business, and General Science. With Mrs Isabel Baptist, our sponsor, we enjoyed a welner roast at the Roy farm. By spring, our class had increased in knowledge but decreased in size, and we ended a successful year with a scavenger hunt. We entered our second year in Clayton High School with twenty-two members and Mr. Clyde Townsend as the sponsor. Despite the weather, we enjoyed a weiner roast in the Home Economics room. Miss Sargent taught us manners and how to have a likable personality; however we don't know whether it improved us or not. Being polished up on our manners, we were chosen to be waiters and waitresses for the Junior-Senior Banquet and Prom. School came to an end with all of us looking forward to our Junior year. We entered the halls of knowledge with nineteen members in our Juniox year, and Miss Marian Poynter was our sponsor. Under the direction of Betty Jefferson, we presented Best Foot Forward , which, although it was grief tc us (and our director),,was a financial success. This year was the year when we honored the Seniors with the Junior-Senior Banquet and Prom. We enjoyed a weiner roast at the coal banks. Twenty seniors crossed the threshold of Clayton High now Central High School with Mr. Carl Clapper as sponsor. The night of our class party, we motored to the Kestner farm where we enjoyed our fourth and final weiner roast. Our play, a comedy, You Can't Take It With You was directed by Betty Jefferson. With the money, we took a trip to St. Louis. The last scene finds us marching down the aisle to receive our diplomas. We go out of school lifeâinto Life's school. Alberta VonHolt: My boy friend's got lovely blue eyes--and 20-20 vision. Minnie Kindhart: And I always thought love was blind. Bob Breneman: You know, you're not a bad-looking girl. Darlene Diseron: Oh, you'd say that even if you didn't think so. Bob: Well, we're even then. You'd think so even if I didn't say so. Rosemary Roy: That's a nice suit you have on; do you mind my asking how much you paid for It? John Barrigar: Not at all, a hundred and ten dollars. Rosemary: Don't you think that's quite a lot? John: Oh, I don't know. I got nine pairs of pants. Bricker's face dropped a mile ithenfirst he saw Grand Canyon.

We acquired an automatic pop machine from the Pepsi Cola Co, and thereby aided our finances. To end our Junior year we were hosts at the annual Jr-Sr. Prom and Banquet on Friday, May 6. Calvin Shanks band from Hamilton provided dance music. On September 1, 1949, we dignified Seniors returned with a mighty nine: Maxine Flesner entered from Camp Point.

I V, I W8 rT;:rr;V -vtr;Tvargt i i ÂŁm.%fflwmh mi aA warns Senior Class Poem s wfj a P ÂŁ o We're the class of '49, Who add our names to the distinguished line. Our fame will always last. As students who have graduated in the past. The president of our Senior Class Has always been a winsome lass. She's Mary Lee Hill, a hardworking girl. An A student who gives her studies a whirl. Russell Mueller, our vice-president. Is a very tall and handsome gent; The center of our basketball team, With Norma Lee can usually be seen. The little Clodhopper with the red checked glasses Is always quick with her wit and sasses; Marjorie Ann Aden, a senior of note. To be a secretary someday is her hope. It's Nonna Busboom, who waits for the Oldsmobile With Jack Beckett always at the wheel. She's a tall and cute brunette. Who will continue to be a pianist, you can bet. Glen Akers, the newcomer from Clayton High, Is another hard working senior guy; With a few subjects he does have trouble; But when you need help, he's there on the double. Maxine Flesner the girl from C. P. An ambitious girl of Home Making III. Here's advice that's good for life. She will make someone a good housewife. Elmer Leenerts, with his latest brainstorm, Next year will reside in the Carthage dorm. He often sets up the picture machine. And gazes at pretty girls on the screen. Rollin Krueger, our card expert. His mind for studies he doesn't exert. In his blue Dodge we can usually see; A cute Junior girl named Wanda Lee. Leona Ihnen, the last in this hall of fame. Will live up to the class' great name. We don't know what her future will be. But she likes Typing II and Home Ec.III. Hals mighty class of nine strong Will be the leaders of the throng. Whatever we do we'll be a success.

We hope to have our rings by the last of May. The Juniors ended the school year with a banquet and prom for the Seniors on May 15, 1949 under the guidance of Krs. Hill.

Y YÂŤWv 7SS XutijUL baseball The Clayton High baseball team had a very successful season this year. Clayton's five victories of this season were over Camp Point, Payson, Men-don. Golden, and Liberty; its two losses to Augusta and Bowen. Clayton emerged in second place in the Wenois Conference. Johnny Barrigar pitched all of Clayton's games and was relieved only once by Harry Pratt at Augusta. Johnny accumulated seventy-eight strikeouts in the seven games, walked ten men, and allowed only twenty-five hits. Clayton tallied a total of forty-two runs to the total of twenty-one runs by their opponents. Johnny's outstanding pitching record was ably backed by his teammates, the consistent above-the-average catcher, Harry Pratt; the whirl-wind fresh man shortstop, Vernon Kelly; the fast and plucky second baseman. Gene Johnson; natural third baseman, David Campbell; sky-scraping Marion Marsh on first and his heavy hitting brother, Keith, as right fielder; scrappy, hard playing center fielder, David Knight; and always dependable Dick Clark in lift field; shared with Frederick Ball. They might, well have won the conference championship. They are to be commended for their comeback, for following their two losses in mid-season. We took defeat well and came back to beat Camp Point, one of the co-championship teams. The three leading batters were; Keith Marsh with a .450 average; Harry Pratt with a .400 average; and David Campbell hitting .273. The Red Devils were led through victories by Coach Raymond J. Ross.

In the whole season, we were victorious in 12 games and were defeated in 8. In the Wenois Tournament we took third place by beating Golden and Mendon. Bowen just barely squeezed by us by 4 points. Pratt led the Red Devils by scoring 36 points, followed by Campbell with 32, and Knight with 20. The team had tough luck on four occasions by losing by 3 or 4 points. The team consisted of a fighting and hard driving bunch of men. The following men rounded out the first team. David Knightâ88--was the teamâs consistent rebounder. He baffled opponents with his tricky ball handling and deadly hook shots. He proved to be a great asset to the team. Harry Pratt--55--was the hot-number on the first five. He was consistently high scorer, with his professional feinting and jump shots. He was also a good defensive man. David Campbellâ44--was of great value to the team with his set shots and ball handling ability. He was a very good guard, and made a lot of baskets by stealing the ball from his opponents. Bob Artisâ22âhelped the team along, with his set shots and rebounding ability. He was replaced in the last three gamds of the season by Harry Vonholt. Billy Arti3â77âwas an asset to the team, due to his ability to dribble the ball around the opposition and shoot hook shots with extreme accuracy. Keith Marshâ13âwas of great value, due to his rebounding ability and set shots. Marion Marsh--33--with his jump shots and rebounding, set an excellent example for the boys, who will fight for Clayton High in following years. Frederick Ball--66âaided the team with his ball handling ability and his staunch defensive play. Dick Clarkâ15âproved to be an asset to the team with his one-handed shots and his hand driving and rebounding power. Johnny Barrigarâ99âwas one of the teamâs best guards. His ability to bring the ball down the floor, and his set shots from out in front helped the team to victory. Harry Vonholt--12âhelped the team through their games, with his shooting andireboundlng ability. Manager Bobby Breneman followed the team through their defeats and wins with a smile. If anything went wrong, we still had Bobby to help. The second team had a successful season of 8 wing and 9 losses. They will have two of the regulars back from the first team next year. This is composed of Vernon Kelly, Jim Graham, James DeMoss, Glen Mixer, Melvin Eidson, and player-manager, Bobby Breneman.

(4- h W% i 4 23232iÂŁLi2SHHEHE Harry and Grace Graves were the parents of two lovely daughters, Lois and Judy, who at thirteen had, besides her confidante', Pluggy, and an amazing capacity for food, a burning desire to grow up to the glamorous age of her sister, Lois, who was sixteen. Judy decided that her father was in love with the daughter of his boss, who he caller! J. B. Fluffy and Judy decided to brin; Harry back into the family fold. They found it necessary to eliminate Ellen, who, when she wasn't catering to her father's every whim, visited occasionally with the Graves'. Judy also took it upon herself to use Lois' perfume and to save her Uncle Willis, whom she had never seen. Since the family was not allowed to mention his name in front of her mother, Judy thought he had been in the penitentiary. When Judy wasn't fixing family affairs she and Fluffy were learning to walk in their first high-heeled shoes and trying to wangle young men to be their escorts for the New Year's dance; the result of all of which practically assured Harry of the loss of the oartnershin with J. B. for which he has been working, together with the need of a osychlatrist for everyone else. However, with circumstances at their worst, there was an unexpected turn, and Judy became visa Judy Graves, a lovelv Junior Miss who had her escort for her first dance.
