TOM My friends, 1 have called you to assemble here as a solemn duty, that you, the heirs, and assigns of my respected client, the class of 1955, may hear the last will and testament, which, as their legal advisor, I drew, as directed by them. To our friends, the sophomores, we leave our patience as a means by which they can endure the seniors of next year. To the young and unsophisticated freshmen, we leave a map of the school building so they will not get lost and in everyone's way. We leave the traditional seats by the windows to the juniors. Try not to carve on them, or damage them in any way. The individual student bequests are as follows: ED STAUDACHER bequeaths to John Englund his supply of language. Now John can talk more and say less than anyone in high school. The perfect indolence of GLEN EVELAND we leave to Ed Cramer. If this is used right, it will insure Ed against fatigue and overstudy. BETTY BERG wills Sandra Leighton her twirling class. HAROLD CALDWELL, in providing for Beverly Wright's care after his graduation, leaves this duty to Delanor Zorn. BOB FUNDERH1DE wills a large portion of his Shelby girl friends to Denis Peterson. VERNON THISSELLE wills his dark whiskers to Bob Mann. GORDON ZORN wills his job at the Times' to Esther May Greiner. HARRY HE1MBIGNER leaves Don Haugen with his old basketball shoes, to be used when Don paces the study hall aisle. WANTED: Even though LYLE CRAWFORD is a senior, he would like to have somebody donate to him a pair of horn-rimmed glasses for his future career as a teacher. RONNIE BLEECKER wills some of his charm to Terry Swank, Gary Shepherd, and Roger Wolfe. MEREDITH SWANK wills her smooth, gentle temperament, and high position in Rainbow for Girls to John Stores. VI WRIGHT, in showing true love and admiration for Donna Kossel, wills her all her freckles. JIM YOUDERIAN wills Arietta Jensen his job as usher, so she can get out from behind the candy counter at the theater. JOY KAUSHAGEN and ADELLA SEIDLITZ would like to will their friendship for each other to Ed Cramer and Gail Kammerzell. Also JOY wills her poor eyesight to anyone who wants to avoid the dirty looks of the teachers, and ADELLA wills her ability on the saxophone iu Charles Peterson. DORIS SHETTEL wills her smooth, easy-going personality to Jim Thielman. FRANK WAN KEN. who has kept out of trouble for four years, and gotten along with all his friends and classmates, wills these qualities to Ronnie Schwindt. FLOYD BLAIR wills some of the rubber off his tires to Larry Lambott in case his ever wear thin. GORDON KAMMERZELL wills his flashy sport clothes combinations to Bob Pugsley, bis place at solo cornet he wills to Wilfred Graham. DAVID CUSHING wills his ambition to Jerry Hendrickson. WAYNE RUNNION wilb his musical talent to Julius Jodlowski. LYNN WREN wills her Tiber Dam residence to anyone who wants it. ARDITH STEARNS wills Dianne Luchetti the ability to say the wrong thing at the right time. GARY VIOLETT wills his front teeth to anyone with nerve enough to play football. LELA SHETTEL wilb her ability to haul more and more band instruments to Mr. Vie. Signed, sealed, and affixed with our respected signature, on this 29th day of April, the year of 1955. The Class of 1955

(?lci4 'P'laftAecy This is Here and There with Joy originating in your town at the CHS-TV station. Last night, April 28, 1965, was the class of 55's reunion at the high school auditorium. This program will be a rundown on what all of the class members are doing. FLOYD BLAIR is owner of all the land that sunounds the Sweet Grass Hills and, of course, the hills, too. BETTY BERG, who always wanted to have lots of kids, has got her wish. She leads the Chester Grade School Band. The band has four little Raunigs in it. WAYNE RUNNION has just finished building a hot rod that will do 199.99 miles per hour over a clocked mile. ADELLA SEIDLITZ has just returned from Russia where she explained to Mailenrob how her theory of war helped the United States take over Russia. LELA SHETTEL owns the Big Horn Sheep Company on top of Logan Pass in Glacier Park. She always did love to talk about the sheep on her parents' farm. ROBERT FUNDERHIDE, who always said he'd be a lawyer, needs a lawyer now. He just brought in another oil well and the government says he is making too much money and not paying enough taxes. DORIS SHETTEL, who always was the most sweet and understanding girl in our class, is now being sweet and understanding and getting paid for it. She is head psychiatrist at the HOME FOR HOPELESS CASES. GLEN EVELAND is now a lieutenant-colonel in charge of all the mess kitchens at an army base in South Africa. LYNN WREN is head flight nurse on the North American Atomic Airlines. I always knew that she would go up in the world. GARY VIOLETT is married to the girl he was always sweet on, Beverly Berg. When his three kids, triplets, reach high school it will cost him a fortune buying them Fords. VIOLA WRIGHT owns the biggest clothing store in the world, THE STORE FOR TALL WOMEN. She is a multi-millionaire now that everyone is six feet tall because of radioactivity. MEREDITH SWANK is now mayor of Joplin. This job keeps her busy, but close to her husband. FRAND and ARDITH WANKEN have a large wheat ranch south of Chester. Since they bought all the land south of the tracks they have to hire 100 men. Ardith is bossing their ten hired girls and Frank runs the ranch. HAROLD CALDWELL is in Asia trying to find a way to stop earthquakes. That must be an exciting job. GEORGE STAUDACHER is an electrical engineer for the Westinghouse Corporation. I hope he doesn't get careless and electrocute himself. JIMMIE YOUDERIAN is a veterinarian at Pluto's Dog Hospital in Hollywood. All the movie stars bring their poodles to him for psychiatric treatment. GORDON ZORN is type setter for the New York Times. He hopes to own his own place in a few years. DAVID CUSHING is working for the ACM Mining Company in Australia. He is trying to find more uranium mines. LYLE CRAWFORD is teaching school in New York City. He has fifty kids in his first grade. RONNIE BLEECKER is owner of all the Conoco Service Stations west of the Mississippi. I guess his early start must have helped him out. VERNON THISSELLE is working in a dentist office in Texas. I suppose he got interested in that work because he had to go to the dentist so often during high school. GORDON KAMMERZELL has finished college finally and has married the girl of his dreams during class time, Marilyn Monroe. HARRY HEIMBIGNER is drawing plans for 1980 cars for General Motors. For some reason they all seem to look like his old Ford. Well, my time is up folks--tune in tomorrow for my next evening edition of all of die gossip in Chester, brought to you by Joy Kaushagen.
