SENIOR HISTORY- Wc, the seniors of 1953 have come a long way since we entered as excited and determined freshmen in 1949. Our freshman year was one devoted to getting adjusted to and acquainted with the rules and ways of Chilocco. The first freshman football team was organ- ized, Lillie Morrell was the high-stepping drum major of the school band. Class officers for the year were: Sequoyah England, president, James Schell, vice president, Lillie Morrell, secretary, James Bacon, Sergeant-at-arms. Sponsors were Miss Kay Ahrnken and Mr. Donald J. Royer. Our sophomore year was a successful one. We succeeded in winning the spring play day event. Nora Jean Hukill won girls' annual posture contest. Our class also placed second in the 1950 Amateur Hour program. Our candidates for Campus Princess and Brave, Zelma Warrior and Daniel Lee Williams, were the victors. Class officers for the year were: Luther Hunter, president, Andy Toney, vice presi- dent, Virginia Benson, secretary, Morgan Little Sun, sergeant-at-arms. Sponsors were Mr. Leonard Hathcoat and Mr. Owen C. Grant. In our junior year, we returned, ready to conquer anything. We overran fall play day and we later won the spring play day. The 1951-52 football queen was Nora Jean Hukill and the campus Princess and Brave CLASS PROPHECY- May 1, 1968 Dear Norma: I've been keeping up with most of the classmates since graduation and I thought you might like to know where some of them are. It's really surprising how tal- ented that Class of 1953 was and how famous many of them have become. First. let me tell you how surprised I was to hear that you've taken Miss Ross's place as instructor. How is Miss Ross since her retirement? I hear Andy Toney is principal there at Chilocco now, and has a staff of women in his Academic Department. How is his wife. the former Joan Fixico, these days? So Maynard Levi has replaced Mr. Col- glazier as boys' adviser. has he? I'm sure all the boys are as well-behaved now as Maynard was in those days. Also they tell me that Vann Isaac is coach there now and they are still trying to beat Ponca City in basketball. They say all other sports have been given up so they can practice basektball the vear 'round. Dallas Miller has opened up an ex- clusive dress shop in Chicago and has as four of his lovely models Norma Secon- were both juniors, Virginia Benson, a Cherokee from Tulsa and Junior Jackson, a Cherokee from Grove. Prom time-and Jean Bevenue was selected to reign over the festivities. Daniel Lee Williams served as vice president of the Student Council during the school term. Class officers were: Junior Jackson, president: Freddie Howerton, vice president, Lupe Gooday, secretary, Perry Wilson, sergeant-at-arms. In this, our senior year, we are well pleased with our record of being a win- ning class. To start the year out right, Emma Jean Hendricks was named Miss Chilocco and represented Chilocco in the annual Arkalahlah celebration in Ar- kansas City. Vera Gourd was chosen Foot- ball Queen for 1952-53. In the basketball world, four Chilocco cagers were listed on the Northern 8 All-star roster: George England, Junior Jackson, Dean Jackson and Fred Howerton. Jack Wilson and Fred Howerton were named to the second All-conference team in football. A loyal senior, Vernon Hunter was elect- ed campus Brave. The Chiloccoan King and Queen are Sequoyah England and Marion Cunningham. The mighty seniors won both the fall and spring play days, making this the only class to win five consecutive playdays. Valedictorian and Salutatorian honors went to Virgil George England, Jr. and Sequoyah England, cousins. dine, Betty Buckley, Ginger Coleman, and Lorene Cotanny. Bessie Ballou is quite an important woman in the Womens Air Force now. Pat Cannon sings on Grand Ole Opry these days and Zelma Warrior is touring the world as an opera star. George England, editor of the New York Tribune, has been filling his sports col- umns with former Chiloccoans lately. Donnie Cramp and Charlie White have the highest batting averages in the major league this year. Jack Wood was the highest paid baseball player since Di- Maggio. Luther Hunter won the top coach award for the year 1968. Jack Wilson was named the second hunchback of Notre Dame and Eugene Atkins, for the past several years, has been lightweight wrest- ling champ of the world. Incidentally Joan Miller is still around to help Eugene spend his money and count his trophies. Don Beaver is now managing the Tulsa Oilers. We were all so proud of Freddie How- erton when he swept the country in the last presidential campaign. Let's hope he knows how to carry on a parliamentary Procedure meeting by now. Mildred De- Poin and Beverly Wagoshe are his secre- aries. -24,
