WfV K,, •i K W-a ' . 9:1 , -saBfc Dedication We, the senior class of 1957, take a large amount of pleasure in dedicating this year's annual to our sponsor, Mr. Cox. In addition to this dedication we would like to express our sincere gratitude for his help and leadership in our high school years. Any class is fortunate if they can keep a good sponsor the entire four years. We have been doubly fortunate not only be- cause we have had Mr. Cox for four years but, also, because during those four years he has made outstanding contributions to our class. Contributions we will always remember. f4n iu zt Editor Assistant Editors Advertising Managers _ _ _ Carol Ksiazek Business Managers Roger Sweet Marianna Friedrichsen Gae Williams Ar.tlvl+.y Editors— ------- Ellard Matousek Sports Editors Louise Micek Dan Cahill John Neth Senior Reporters M ndy Sherrill Carolyn Sauter Jerry Truesdell Marvin Freeland Sophomore Reporters Freshmen Reporters Ray Ksiazek Dwight Strobel Jerry Cahill Student (Council Officers President.........Rosa McLean Vice-President....Larry Booth Secretary........Rosalie Rose Advisors Mr. Harris.....Mr. Strickland Representatives Freshman Class Lynda Clark Ralph Jilg Junior Class Rosalie Rose Larry Booth Sophomore Class Karen Kluck George McLean Senior Class Rosa McLean Monte Roumpf % .Tamaa Sterup Hastings Collega Social Studies, Civics, Coach Robert J.

It was on this day that sev- enteen little leprechauns brightened the halls of Clarks School by beginning their primary year. Five of these still remain. They are: Edward Booth, Lanny Dittmer, Sharon Gerber, Carolyn Sauter, and Roger Sweet. The teacher who so expertly guided us through this year was Miss Mary Kit. After completing the kindergarten we were sent to Miss Senkbile for the first grade. Those who had already moved away were: Phyllis Stratton, Judson Beetle, and Monte Roumpf. During this year we left Nancy Stromburg behind and advanced to the second grade. Our second grade teacher was Miss Birtie Butcher. Add- itions to the class were: Violet Browers, Mary Ann Haak, DeWayne Me Kim, Loritta Richards, and Rosa McLean. Betty Sperling, Janice Larson, and Ronda Mullens moved during the summer. We journeyed on to the third grade where Miss Ethel Sweet took the reins for the next two years. This year, Joanne Lahowetz joined us. Tom Spires decided to stay behind as we pushed on to the fourth grade. Here we acquired Dick Gerber and Billy Schneider. At the end of the year Wilma Mustard stayed behind. Dick Gerber moved away. With gritted teeth and a sigh of relief, she pushed us into the fifth grade where Mrs. Ellen Sloan was our teacher. Karen Hoffer left for country school in the middle of the year. Billy Schneider left during the summer. Mandy Sherrill and Jo Ann Wruble joined our class in the sixth grade. We bumped into the seventh grade where for the next two years our teacher was Miss Bonnie Gagle. At the end of the seventh grade Raymona Murphy moved to Valley. Upon entering the eighth grade several different faces were seen among the familiar ones. They were: Monte Roumpf, Lois Roumpf, Betty Sperling, David Nelson, Gae Williams, and Carol Ksiazek. At last we received our eighth grade diplomas and reached one of our goals, high school. Twenty-seven students began this long climb. Leona Dittmer, Marianna Friedrichsen, Louise Micek, Laraie Myers, Gerald Truesdell, Marvin Freeland, Gerald Galusha, Ellard Matousek, Neal Thomas, Gayle Swedenburg, John Neth, Dan Cahill, Karen Hoffer, and Jerome Kleve joined us at this time. After an exciting and exhausting initiation we freshmen were quite used to the high school routine. We chose our class colors as royal blue and grey. The, flower is red and white carnation and our motto is Push, don't drag . Jerome Kleve left us during the second semester. At the beginning of the Sophomore year we found that Gerald Galusha left and Donna Collins joined us for a few months, then left for Guide Rock. In the Junior year, Gayle Swedenburg dropped out of school. We received our class rings this year and presented our first class play, The Antics of Andrew . After the play, Karen Hoffer moved to Denver, and Larnie Myers moved to Elkhom. Sharon Jaeger moved here from Minnesota. The pro- ceeds from the play were used for the Junior-Senior Banquet. The theme for the banquet was Candyland . After the banquet, the Juniors settled down to prepare themselves for taking the title of Seniors. The Senior year finds us minus two students. Sharon Jaeger left us to go to school in Kansas and Lois Roumpf be- came Mrs. Larry Mason. In a very short time we will be pass- ing our books on to the Juniors. The Seniors have a very busy year ahead of them yet. Amidst the hub-bub of every day sch- ooling the mighty Seniors have had to order such things as robes, etc. A likely trip to be made was the journey to Hastings, where we took our pictures at Habberman's Studio. The Senior play ha3 been chosen. It is Stars in Their Eyes , and will be presented April 25th and 26th. We are now look- ing forward to Sneak Day. All the Seniors are now diligently working on the annual. The Seniors are anxiously awaiting the luxurious banquet to be presented by the Juniors. Com- mencement excercises will be here before we can realize it. We will then be entering a completely different world of independence. The remaining members of the Class of 1957 are: Ed Booth Dan Cahill Lanny Dittmer Leona Dittmer Marvin Freeland Marianna Friedrichsen Sharon Gerber Carol Ksiazek Joanne Lahowetz El lard Matousek Rosa McLean Louise Micek John Neth Monte Roumpf Carolyn Sauter Mandy Sherrill Roger Sweet Neal Thomas Jerry Truesdell Jo Ann Wruble Gae Williams 6 44 TVtCC We, the Seniors of '57, do hereby will our athletic abilities to the Seniors of '60.

The famous celebrity , Carolyn Sauter, is throwing a Masquerade Ball. The stroke of mid- night is creeping nearer and soon all these mysterious peo- ple will unmask. After graduating from Clarks High a talent scout found Carolyn’s long lost operatic talent. Her husband wished it were still lost but that remains to be seen. GongJ Gong] Gong] GongJ GongJ GongJ GongJ Gong’ GongJ GongJ GongJ GongJ Here we goj Now that's sure a clever costume. I wonder who it is? Who else would be dressed like a test tube but one of the Chemistry students. Well it's Roger Sweet. He became so intrigued by Mr. McMahon's Chemistry class that he made Chem- istry his life career. Next we see the famous newscaster Ed Booth who has been broadcasting news over NBC in New York City for the last ten years. He is seen dancing with his sixth wife and he's noted for his numerous marriages in the last few years. As we are listening to the music, we wonder who's or- chestra is playing. When we go up to the orchestra leader and ask his name we find out that it's the Jazz King of 1977 Lanny Dittmer and his orchestra. We find out that as soon as he graduated from Clarks, he started a small orchestra and gradually worked up to the famous person he is. After we finished our discussion with Mr. Dittmer, we hear a lot of screaming and hollering from the girls and no wonder, the Elvis Presley of 1977, John Neth, Just strolled in. After singing one of his hit records, he tells us that after he graduated from Clarks, he decided to go into show business and put his beautiful voice on records. It looks like we will take time out for a little enter- tainment. Well, it's the jitterbug King and Queen of 1977, Ellard Matousek and Sharon Gerber. After graduating from Clarks High School they realized they both had real rock and roll talent. They teamed up and are making millions. Oh Oh! Over in the corner a heated argument is taking place. It's between the former Joanne Lahowetz and Rosa McLean. You might know they're arguing which branch of the service is the best. Joanne thinks the navy is and Rosa is all for the marines. They must have a reason for their opinions J i]I Over yonder is a small time bank robber. It's Jerry Truesdell. After he married Miriam Sweet he wanted to give her anything she wanted. He doesn't take'much just what she asks for and no more. The law just can't seem to catch up with him. It seems he has a skeleton key to fit every lock in the D. S. Here are two girls that look familiar. It's Gae Williams and Mandy Sherrill. An agent from Slenderella's Model Agen- cy saw Gae's slender figure and booked her up for a full time model. Her picture is on the front of Snook magazine this week. All her clothes are designed by Madame Pierpont or better known to us as Mandy (Sherrill) Rasmussen. She leads a very busy life designing fashions and running after her five little blonde Rasmussens. Her fashions are noted all over the world and even Paris is trying to sign a contract with her. She says she's happy where she is. She should be making $50,000 a week. Who's that with the scratches all over his face????????? Well Hi Monte! What happened to you? Oh! Paula and Betty got into a fight and you. were in the middle of it. Well I'd say you got the worst end of it. After graduating from CHS Monte became a great football player for the University of Nebraska. Girls are always having brawls over him. He's thinking of becoming a hermit. It would be 3afer that way. Above all the noise at the Ball, we hear a loud racket outside. Marvin Freeland has arrived in his new sports car. After graduating he became a racer. He has had many victories, and donates a lot of his money to charitable causes. We ask him why he hasn't married and he says he loves his car more than he could love any woman. MM The next person we see is LeOna Dittmer. You'd never re- cognize her. She must weigh nearly 400 pounds. After she fin- ished high school she became so bored with life that all she would do was sit around and eat. She lives with her mother and runs up quite and expensive food bill. Well there's that famous movie actress traveling incog- nito. If anyone found out who she was she would be torn to pieces by her raving fans. This is the famous Carolyn Con- roe or better known as Carol Ksiazek to us. She had her French poodle Mitzi with her. Carol has made many hit movies and among them is I'll Get Him Yet. The mysterious geiger counter is now unmasking. Why it's Jo Ann Wruble. She has been hunting for uranium for the past 20 years. She has been pretty successful too. She not only found uranium but also landed herself a man. Here's an all around athlete. Marianna Friedricksen. In high school she was a very good volley ball player. She won may trophies. She not only plays volley ball now but also runs the hurdles, high jumps, throws the javeline, and throws the shot put. She will participate in the Olympics this year. She should give the United States a very good chance of winn- ing. The next person we see is 6 foot 10 inch Dan Cahill who is the star player on the professional team this year. He tells us that he went to college and became one of the top players in Collegiate Basketball. We're surprised to see that he's so tall, but 3ince he has been playing Pro ball for about 14 years and averaged 39.07 pts. a game, he'd have to be pretty good sized. It's getting pretty late in the morning and there's still two people from the class of 1957 that haven't shown up at the ball yet. Here they come now. Neal Thomas and Louise Micek. We begin to wonder if they are well acquainted with each other, but they tell us that they both work on the same giant airliner. Neal being the pilot and Louise the ste- wardess. They have both been in the airline business since their graduation and they just happened to be on the same plane by coincidence. Besides, Neal is happily married to the former Karen Kluck and the have seven bright-eyed youngsters. It is now 4s30 A.M. and the party has broken up. Carolyn has quite a mess to clean up but it was worth it just seeing the graduating class of 57 once more united.

In the first six weeks of school, the Sophomore class sponsored a very successful carnival. This, we hope, was enjoyed by all. Our first class party was a chili feed which was held on December 3. At the first of the football season Jerrie Dexter suffered a broken arm and Cecil Branting had the misfortune of breaking his leg. We are all looking forward to the second semester and our coming Junior year. Hi There Smut!

We are taking five subjects: Algebra, English, General Science, World Geography, the boys Shop, and the girls, Home Economics. Initiation was held September 17th through the night of September 19th. We all suffered through it. On our first class party we went on a picnic to Starrets' Grove. We sponsored a dance on November 10th to raise some money for our class funds. — . 'pwxt att Sqcuut In the season's opener the Clarks Blue Bombers were edged by Silver Creek 7 to 6. The touchdown for Clarks was scored by David Booth when he intercepted a blocked pass and rambled 55 yards to paydirt. In the second game of the season the Bombers failed to get the vital point after touchdown and were turned back 7 to 6 by the Wood River Eagles. In the second home game of the campaign Clarks battled to a 13-13 tie with Stromsburg. This was a hard fought, well played game by both teams. On the fourth game of the season the Bombers went to Polk where fate smiled on them as they finally gained a 7 to 0 victory. The next game found the Bombers journeying to Shelton for the Bulldog's Homecoming game. The Bulldogs defeated the Bombers 8 to 6. A Clarks halfback was trapped in the end zone to give Shelton a safety and its 2 point margin. In the next game Clarks came up against one of the top teams in the state, St. Paul. The Bombers played one of their better games but were defeated 18 to 6. During this game Ed Booth suffered a slipped vertebrae and was lost for the season. In the Homecoming tilt Clarks got back to winning ways by beating Osceola 6 to 0. Clarks had trouble making any headway in the first half but finally tallied in the last half and seriously threatened several other times. Next Clarks came up against St. Edward. Although St. Ed. fielded a fairly strong team Clarks had little trouble winning. During this game the coaches cleared the bench. The final score was 13 to 0. For the final game of the season Clarks journeyed to Genoa. They finally got their offensive attack rolling and won 18 to 0. This was the last game for four Seniors, Gerald Truesdell, Monte Roumpf, Neal Thomas and Marvin Freeland. Although we had a successful season by way of the win-loss, we had the misfortune of losing Cecil Branting, Jerrie Dexter, Ed Booth and Lanny Dittmer by injuries or illness. ■ m im S� tm ome @o«K£ ty S u6et(kUl ?ca K “i¥ok s% (? 7ecun d ctshetLadl Clarks opened the '56-57 basketball season on the St, Edward floor. An experienced St. Edward team downed the local five 56-43. The second team also suffered defeat, 36-35. The next contest was with a tall Belgrade team and Clarks again came out on the short end of the score which was o3-53. The reserve team got into the winning ways by downing Belgrade's seconds 27-L4. The last pre-holiday game was with Benedict. Although the team work and play was excellent in the first half, Clarks again lost 67-43. The seconds also lost 40-24. Clarks finally found themselves in the opening round of the Merrick County Tournament and easily handled Silver Creek. After the final buzzer the score was 44-37. Clarks now entered the finals but seemed to have lost the special touch they had in the first game and were de- feated 47-37. Next Clarks again journeyed to Silver Creek where they dumped a conference foe 45-42. The reserves once more lost by one point 22-21. The next encounter proved to be one of the most thrill- ing contests of the year, as Clark3 won 51-50 over Polk. The second team also won 31-20. Clarks lost to a highly trained Osceola squad 53-47. The seconds got off to a slow start and were defeated 44-37. The next conference game was at Genoa. Clarks was up to par and won 48-37. The second lost to a thriller by two points 35-33. The following week found the local quintette in a non- conference contest with Marquette. They were easily beaten by a score of 64-43. The reserves once more had a close game but won 27-24. Duncan proved to be a very well balanced team who hit on outstanding shot percentage. They measured the first five 62-56. The seconds continued on their winning ways, this time the score being 38-33. Another non-conference game found the local team on the long end of the score once more defeating Palmer 53-43. The seconds lost their tilt 30-25. Clarks, now entering the first stages of the season found it possible to win the conference. With this cour- agement they downed a stubborn Stromsburg five, 50-48. The seconds were cold and lost 38-16. Clarks entered the first game of the season with St. Paul, knowing that the winner of this contest would tie with Osceola for first place. The team got off to a good start, but lost 64-52. The seconds also met a very strong foe and lost 52-27. Having now completed their regular season with a res- pectable 7-7 record and a tie for second place in the con- ference Clarks entered the District Tournament. In the opening rounds they met one of the better teams of the state in Seward Concordia and lost 87-52. _ '7’iac BACK ROW Richard Zegar Earl Colbert Larry Kohl Larry Phelps Bob Osterman Jerry Truesdell Jerrie Dexter Ronald Hudson Marvin Brockman MIDDLE ROW Robert Kohl Emil Zelasney Jerry Ksiazek Tom Kuhn Clarence Vergo Jack Neel Ray Ksiazek Ralph Jilg Carl Brunken FRONT ROW Andy Dush Larry Booth David Booth Bill Rice Jerry Schutte Lanny Dittmer Eddie Booth Dennis Spires Dwight Strobel Maurice Lindgreen Lettermen returning from last year are: Larry Booth, Bob Osterman, Eddie Booth, Lanny Dittmer and Jerry Schutte.

Three of these, Leonard Zelasney, Margaret Ann Herman and Lynda Van Ostrand, were pupils from re- cently annexed outlying districts. Thirteen of this class had entered kindergarten to- gether and with the same teacher they now have, Mrs. Anderson. At that time there were twenty-one. While several were lost in the intervening years, they gained David Zegar, Douglas Hudson, Marilyn Randall and Derilyn Beck from other schools. They have spent a profitable year, enlarging their experiences and skills in numbers, reading, social studies, sciences, language arts and good citizenship. They have taken field trips, participated in small programs, and other activities which add interest to the regular class room procedures.

One day the principal showed his annoy- ance by saying, This makes the fifth time you have been sent to my office the past week. What have you to say for yourself? Neal: I'm glad it's Friday. Do you, the Judge asked Jerry Truesdell, take this woman for better or for worse, through sickness and health, in good times and bad whether she be---- Darn it Judge, broke in Miriam tearfully, you're gonna talk him right out of it] Doctor Douglas had worked long and arduously to get Clarence Vergo over the notion that he was a dog. When the doc finally finished the course of treatment, the doc asked Him one final question, How do you feel now? Just wonderful, Doc] Clarence answered enthused, I couldn't feel better if I tried. Just feel my nose] This is a little note Jerry S. received from Camille K: I was only Joking when I wrote that I didn't mean what I said about reconsidering my decision not to change my mind. I really mean this. Now, said the prosecutor, tell the jury why you shot your wife with a bow and arrow. And remember, you have sworn to tell the truth. Replied the helpless defendent, I didn't want to wake the children. A couple of co-eds were talking about their future plans. One remarked that she intended to get an airline hostess job. That way, she said, I'll meet lots of men. Might be an idea, agreed her companion, but wouldn't you meet as many men doing something else? The first gal shrugged, Could be, she admitted, but not strapped down. A young, eager delivery boy for a grocery store was leaving work one Saturday night when the boss told him he was fired. Fired? He screamed. But Mr. Flegenheimer—didn't I work hard today? Didn't I sweep the floor and polish the counter and sharpen the knives and make all the deliveries and wait on customers and clean the windows and— Never mind, snapped Flegenheimer, you're fired. You forgot to empty the rubbish and sweep the street in front of the store. But Mr. Flegenheimer, wailed the boy, It's my day OFF] AUTOGRAPHS ;.2$m . . rjK I ADVERTISING • DR.
