As green little freshmen, we climbed on our kiddie cars and began that trip up the hill to graduation. To guide us on our way we chose Wallace Johnson, with Donald Eckhoif, Sadie Mara, and Donna Hedtke to aid him. So that we would not get lost on that way, we were divided into two groups. The boys' civics class, tiring of the long ride, detoured to Anoka where they made a trip through the mental hospital. At this time Richard Wallack and Betty Gulberg came to make the journey with us: soon after, we lost Jean Ahrens and Charles McNamee. Having outgrown our kiddie cars, we began our sophomore year with tricycles, and we chose Donna Hedtke, Donald Eckhoff, and Patricia Janecula as our leaders. Proceeding onward, the home economics students halted to prepare a dinner for the school board. Later in the year this same group served as waitresses for the Junior- Senior Prom. An interesting event was the field trip taken by the biology class under the guidance of Mr. Nipp. Deciding the road was too rough, Lawrence Libor and Gertrude Van Lith left us to seek their fortunes elsewhere, and Clyde Golden became a member of our class. The next year, finding that the hill was growing steeper, we exchanged our tri- cycles for shiny new bikes. Our head drivers were Joan McPadden, Ralph Scherer, and Patricia Janecula. We met with misfortune during our class play practice when Clem Matter fell off the stage and was unconscious for several moments. In spite of this, the play Drums of Death was presented on April 30, 1948, under the able direction of Miss Simonet. In the spring we arrived at a beautiful Southern plantation. With the assistance of our class advisers, Miss Hagemeister and Mr. Hein, we made this the scene of our Junior-Senior Prom, which was held on May 13. Carol Gabbert, Mary Hoernemann, Juanita Mense, and Audrey Grunklee took over the bicycles of Fred Reed, John Kiel, Donna Hedtke, and Janet Paulson. Clyde Golden got lost but caught up to us once again in our senior year. Feeling very important, we began the last lap of our journey with a brand new '49 Ford. Emogene Drenckhahn and Elizabeth Swartzer joined our merry group to help us complete the trip. Having spent two years in the same homeroom, we were proud to be promoted to the much-envied room at the top of the stairs, with Miss Simonet and Mr. Parsons as our advisers. To carry us through the trials and tribulations of this last year, we chose Wallace Johnson, Jack Van Beusekom, Virginia Grittner, and Patricia Janecula. During our stop-over for the Delano-Cokato football game, we picked Marlys Brandenburg and Wallace Johnson as Homecoming queen and king. December 17, 1948, finding the air quite chilly, we stopped to get warm. It was at this time that we sponsored the senior high Christmas party. On April 6, our play The Curse of an Aching Heart was given. It was a melo- drama and proved to be a great success. Here we are at last on the very top of the hill. As we look back to the last four years we realize that we will cherish them forever. Senior Class . . . 1949 I.AWRENCE' BAUMAN His mind never knows what his mouth will say next.

The senior class play was a melodrama called The Curse of an Aching Heart. It was a story filled with action. Melody Lane has been placed in an orphanage while still a babe. She has no knowledge of her parentage. She has educated herself and is teaching school when she falls into the hands of Windermere Hightower, a scoundrel, who stops at nothing to accomplish his foul ends. Windermere and Melody are married and the ceremony is barely over when he informs her that he expects her to carry out his criminal schemes. Revolted, Melody flees from Windermere. Several months later Melody finds herself living on the None Such ranch, somewhere in the south- west. Since she had never lived with Windermere, she continues to use her maiden name and poses as a single girl. She meets and falls in love with Lucius Goodenough, the stalwart young hero. It is love at first sight on both sides. But Melody has to turn down Lucius's proposal of marriage. When Windermere Hightower appears at the ranch Melody is appalled. The cowardly blackguard t1'ies to force his attentions on Melody and when he tries to force a kiss on her lips, the heroic Lucius knocks him down. Windermere threatens to have revenge. He steals money out of a cupboard, plants the money on Lucius in an attempt to frame him. He also plants a time bomb outside of the barn, hoping to blow Lucius to smithereens. Windermere's dirty work is discovered and he is unmasked but he manages to make a quick getaway. Later he returns to the ranch disguised as an old peddler. Once again Lucius arrives in the nick of time, and after a series of miracles virtue manages to triumph. The play was directed by Mr. Parsons.

I doubt it because everyone was thrilled and excited about the homecoming. There were the contenders for the crown, awards, a few pep talks, and then Bobbie Schumacher started the big blaze. By the light of the fire the cheerleaders started the rousing yells. After the fire and our voices began to dwindle, we started the snake dance through town and ended with a yell fest at the bridge. An October 19 we all took our places with spirits held high as the ball went into the air for the kick-off. At the half we waited with great anticipation as Mr. Parsons said, Queen of Homecoming is Marlys Brandenburg. A pause followed which seemed to last for ages and we were informed in the same manner that Wallace Johnson was chosen king. Our spirits were downed a little when Cokato won the game, but they arose once again for the homecoming dance which followed. It was a gay evening and one of the biggest events of the year. Queen Marlys and King Wallace reigned over the dance to make it the biggest homecoming ever.
