W W2 We, the Seniors of the year nineteen hundred and forty-seven, do hereby, with all hearts filled with sadness, renounce all claims of C. H. S., with the following last will and testament. V To our ever thoughtful teachers, 'ialthough we sometimes doubted it, we leave a hearty thank you and a fond farewell. To the poor Juniors We leave all our dignity and brains, so as to make them fit for the coming year. Rumors are that they certainly will be needed. To the Sophornores we leave our pencils, spit wads, chewing gum, and rubber bands. However, this class will probably never need them because of their own abundant supply. Now, to the dear kind and quiet Freshmen, we leave our ability to get along with the teachers. My dear friends, it is generally customary to leave the brains to the Frosh, but the 'Class of '48' will need them much more. And now each member of the Class of '47 shall will a bit of his or her personal property to whom it will do the least or most good. , Lee Roberts wiils one of his three Weeks' beards to Raymond Sudkamp, a little Junior, who has tried very hard to grow one. Cleora Tacke leaves her quiet, Willing, and ladylike ways to Susie Baker because Cleora says Hsusie ain't got no culture. John Turner wills his ability to get along with Gladys Kees to L. D. Kennedy, who is too little to defend himself. A D June l-luntley wills her sweet disposition and slow temper to lVlr. Torgerson, who is pretty fast on the draw. Ted Hilbert leaves his big mouth and athletic ability to Joe Keener, who claims he cloesn't need it. Clif? Schnider Wills his old answer book and papers to a certain eighth grade girl. Carol Donnally wills her hour-glass figure and spare 50 pounds to Ramona Nuxoll. Alyce Bieren Wills her nickname to Dorothy Sudkamp, who we are sure, will take good care of it. Mary Ann Riener leaves Jimmy Asker to Esther Turner, although rumors are that Mary Ann is going to take a post graduate course just to keep an eye on him. Jim Toennis wills his ability to talk in the study hall, and not get caught, to Norman Fitzsirnmons. Paul Schwartz ,just leaves, and is darn glad of it. Fafaao Wepaiaa, ras W? L 7

Se r r Under Mr. Curtis we elected officers as follows: Ted Hilbert, Presidentg Carol Donnally, Vice President, Cleora Tacke, Secretaryg John Turner, Treasurerg Mary Ann Riener and Ted Hilbert, Council members. Classmates were: Alyce Biereng Clifford Schnider, James Toennis, Lee Roberts, Paul Schwartz, and Marie Reidhaar. We had nothing to hold us up so we studied through the first half of our third year. It was again time to elect officers so under Mr. Curtis we elected Ted Hilbert, Presidentg Lee Roberts, Vice Presidentg John Turner, Secretaryg Clifford Schrrider, Treasurer: James Toennis and Paul Schwartz, Council members. Marie Reidhaar was no longer a member of the junior class. In March we received our class rings, which, of course, were very nice. It was now time for the main event of the year-the Junior Prom. We decorated the gymnasium with pretty colored paper to the theme Dream. It was a great success. School was about out now that the Prom was over and we were all excited about next year. At last-we are now High and Mighty Seniors. This is what We had been waiting for for three years. We were very fortunate in having June Huntley join us for our last year at C. H. S. Under lVlrs. Buettner we elected officers as follows: Ted Hilbert, Presidentg John Tur- ner, Vice President, Mary Ann Riener, Secretary: June Huntley, Treasurer: James Toennis and Alyce Bieren as Council members. The most exciting event of this semester was the painting of our letter, which took place November l4, I946. The Juniors wrecked some of our Work, but we all had a wonderful time. We studied very hard now to be sure that we all had enough credits and before we knew it, the first semester had slipped by. For the last time we elected officers, with Mrs. Buettner as advisor. OHicers were: Ted Hilbert, Presidentg Alyce Bieren, Vice President: Carol Donnally, Secretary, Cleora Tacke, Treasurer, and James Toennis and June Huntley as Council members. The first event of this semester was the taking of our pictures. Some of us were in doubt, but they all turned out Very well. After this school rolled around smoothly until our Senior Sneak, which took place on April 25. That day we were up and on our way by 6:00 A.lVl. We made our journey to Starkey and a good time was had by all. As our high school days draw to a close, we bid a fond farewell to good old C. H. S. C Qrado ?apu2ras, Q6 W? 4
