S e n i or C Ia 5 J History While looking in our scrapbook of memories we come upon the year 1952, when in September, 12 anxious students began their school career as kindergarteners. These twelve beginners, under the direction of Mrs. Anderson were; Linda Church, Maureen Kluck, Mary Kluck, Tommy George Morgan, Susan Sweet, Larry Didier, Jennie Rose Pierce, Glenda Colbert, Curtis Fleeman, Rodger Booth, Dick Dittmer, and Lois Branting. All of these are remaining in the graduating class except Dick Dittmer, Curtis Fleeman, and Maureen Kluck. In our first grade Mrs. McLean was our teacher. Here we gained Danny Roumpf and Dianna Bowers. Mrs. McLean was also our teacher in our second grade. Here we lost Curtis Fleeman and gained Marcia Mustard, Patty Govlik and Mildred Van Meter. Our class now numbered 16. In the third grade we were again very happy to have Mrs. Anderson as our teacher. During this year we lost Mildred Van Meter, who moved to St. Edward, and Patty Govlik, who moved to Hordville. The year was highlighted by the successful operetta The Pied Piper. We journeyed still farther into the fourth grade. Here again we had Mrs. Anderson as our teacher. Once again, Curtis Fleeman joined our class, along with Bonnie Freeland. Passing out of the doors of our fourth grade, we were sorry to lose Dick Dittmer. In the year 1957, we were now fifth graders. Mrs. Sloan was our teacher in this class. Jackie Herman and Phyllis Zelasney joined us from District 55. Climbing still higher, we entered the sixth grade with Mrs. Glasser as our teacher. Nineteen students, seven boys and twelve girls, entered our room the first day of school. Joyce Heule, Judy Zoucha, Ronald Kohl, and Jim Ksiazek, who were pupils of District 11, were quickly made welcome by the class during this year. We also gained Pat Kennedy. In our seventh grade, Danny Roumpf moved to Grand Island during February, Phyllis Zelasney moved to a farm south of Havens and Joyce Heule to District 33. We were sorry to lose these pupils. Mrs. Craig was our teacher. In our last year of grade school, Mr. Kirkpatrick took on the job of instructing us and trying to make high school students out of us. In the middle of the year we were joined by Rhonda Jackson. Our graduating class consisted of 20 students. This year was highlighted by the class trip to Lincoln where we toured the Coca-Cola Bottling Co., the State Capitol, and various museums. In the fall of '60, 28 of us became high school students. Among the 28 were 8 new members. They were Anne Grafe, Ron Church, Robert Dush, Dick Evers, Howard Fairbairn, Maxine Hannappel, JoAnn Stopak and Phyllis Zelasney. We chose for our class colors light blue and silver, our class flower white rose, and our motto Pleasure Comes Through Toil. In our Sophomore year we lost Anne Grafe, Norma Lovelace, Curtis Fleeman and Ron Church. This made our class number 24. In the Junior year we witnessed the excitement of putting on the Junior-Senior Ban- quet. We chose for our theme Oriental Gardens, which was enjoyed by everyone. We put on a successful class play entitled Custer’s Last Stand. We received our class rings around Thanksgiving from the Herf Jones Company. In our closing year at CHS we were 23 strong, having lost Robert Dush. In the be- ginning of the year we took our senior class pictures at Lumbard =Lechinsky in Grand Island. We presented the Christmas play, The Trees. We ordered our announcements from Herf Jones Company. On April 17th, we went on a week-end tour of the city of Chicago. Then on May 15th, we produced our final class play, The Curious Savage, which was a rousing success. On May 25th, 23 Seniors received their diplomas at the Commencement Exercises, and paid final tribute to CHS. 13
