We, the Senior Class of Chadwick Community High School, being of sound mind and body hereby bequeath our abilities and inabilities to the undernamed Juniors. Wanda wills her ability to hold a man to Nancy Farthing. Maybe they'll stay for more than a week now, Nancy. Also she's willing ro give-a little of her love for her Cousin Lloyd to Marilyn Schreiner, good luck Marilyn--make the best of it. Roy wills his quietness to Allen Tripp, make good use of it, Allen. Also he's go- ing to let Marie have some of his dry but witty humor. That should make for a change! Willis wills his ability of always getting into and usually staying in trouble to Billy Stutzman and his pull with Mrs. Bushman to Delores. Lano wills his ability to stop in the middle of the street without signaling to Dar- lene--better luck than Lano had, Darlene! Henrietta wills her silly giggle to Joyce McDearmon, and her interests in the Armed Forces to Marve Prowant. Marilyn is leaving a few of her quiet ways to Allen Haag, that should prove interest- ing. Herb is willing a few pair of his loud socks to Lois Janssen. That will be quite a change. To Gayle, Dick wills his old Ford--now watch her travel. Esther wills her job of class treasurer to any desiring Junior. Here's hoping they can make the books balance. To Dorothy she's willing a little of her speed in writing shorthand. Carol Joy wills her interests in Savanna to'Joyce Eickert. Make good use of them Joyce. And, to Shirley Friederich she's willing a little of her height so she can at least reach his chin now. Virgil wills Lyle the ability to play three minutes in a basketball game while only making one foul. Since the Senior Class has nothing left to give to Bob Huffstuttler, we will him one of the new Mt. Carroll Mohawk Indian hair cuts. Now to the next Senior Class we leave someone very dear to all of us--Yes, our class sponsor, Mr. Brett. Remember kids he's a swell fellow! And now to all the underclassmen we leave the ability to have fun in the same ways we always did! -ln1??: ' ' IVWII 1 mar-

So we set about preparing to leave this school with a lot of fond memories and also to leave it some fond ones of us., Early in October, we began rehearsing for our Senior Play What A Life, which was to be presented November 3. Of course, it was to be the best one ever presented. On October 11, you could have looked up and seen the senior boys combing their hair and--yes, they were wearing ties, and the girls too were dressed up. Yes, it was the day our famed senior pictures were taken. Then, one day in December, you probably heard the seniors all talking about whether they wanted red and white or blue and white or gold and white or black and blue. Well, that day we chose our motto, Our Aims Success: Our Hopes To Win. We also chose our colors, maroon and white and our class flower, the maroon Carnation. This was one more of the deciding factors heading towards our graduation. On the evening of December 22', if you would have looked into the Gym of C. H.S there you would have seen a gaily decorated Christmas Tree in the center of the floor and many couples dancing around it. This event, of course, you recall was the Christmas Dance sponsored by the senior class for the entire student body and faculty. Now, we are still looking forward to the Junior-Senior Prom and banquet at which the Juniors will entertain the Seniors. Also, there will be the Senior Guidance Day at Stockton sometime in April. Most of all, we are closely counting the days until we and our sponsor Mr. Brett, can take our long awaited trip known as Senior Class Day. Then, the other two events left will be the ones in which you will see we eleven dressed in white caps and gowns walking down the aisle toward graduation from high school and a new future for all! 3
