In Memory- In memory of our beloved classmate. Francis Yvonne Doerr Born June 21, 1936 Died October 9, 1948 Mrs. Lelia Minton Born September 27, 1895 Died June 24, 1951 As stated by one of her fellow workers: 'Mrs. Minton was one of the finest teachers and scholars Dexter ever had, a genuine person who met all the principles of Christianity, and her wholesome influence with each student during the years will have its effect throughout the unlimited future.'

JOH Ar Superintendent To most adults the future poses many problems. But adults often grow weary of attacking and solving problems. Therefore, what may appear to be a dismal future to adults may appear to be a challenging one to youth. It is this spirit of adventure and conquest on the part of youth that makes work with them so interesting and fascinating. I have confidence that the youth of today will assume its role in society and world affairs just as have all previous generations. Principal It has been historically proven that no great nation has ever fallen as a direct result of force of arms without. It has always deteriorated from within first. It is the duty of every citizen to prepare himself morally, spiritually, and intellectually to combat our own internal decay before it is too late.

I ts see now, what changes do we see ——There is main street glowing with neon signs from tall, erect business constructions, an attractive and modern recreation center for the young people of the town, a beauti- ful and spacious athletic field which will seat 5,000 near the high school buildings, and the newest addition to the city, a radio station. In most homes in Dexter, the family is sitting around or near the radio, anxiously awaiting the broadcast of an extra-special program. An air of tense expectation fills the room, and finally the announcement comes------- Good evening, ladies and gentlemen—This is station KDEX extending to you an invitation to listen now for the broadcast of the reunion of the Senior Class of '52. Several years have passed since this class, which was one of the most outstanding ever to be graduated from Dexter High, left its halls to make their marks of distinction in the world. Tonight the entire class has returned to Dexter for an all-out reunion in the newly decorated Teachout Auditoru reunion in the newly decorated Teachout Auditorium. As we saunter past the tables, listening to the run of conversation, we nay catch phrases of incidents belonging to the good old days. Jerry Barbour, who now owns a chain of motels, will be in charge of the meeting; the featured entertainer will be Harriett Graber who has thrilled radio and television audiences with her torch songs; and comedian Arlyss Olds will lead the group singing. Just now arriving is the prominent Harry L. Anderson, noted authority on Parliamentary Procedure. He directs his footsteps across the floor to a table where several of his old class mates are seated. Greetings are exchanged and a fluent conversation gets underway. Delois Stacy, Mary Swinger, and Wanda Aarant, who have made a big hit on Broadway with their catchy trio numbers, are talking about their latest show which is being directed by Cecil Robertson and backed financially by the multi- millionaire, Doyle Roberts. Also at the same table are Jack Wood and Doran Vancil. Jack is now the proud owner of the Stinkless Cigar Company, and Doran is head of the Plumbers' Union in Denver. Seated at the next table we find a group of '52 Seniors who have gone far in their various fields. Here is W. R. A 11stun, who owns and manages the new ten-story Hotel Dexter; Jack Irving and Sam Jarrell have worked together and built the famous SamJack engine that operates completely with water for fuel; Dean Bennett, the discoverer of Red-Grow , a solution which when applied to the scalp results in a fine crop of red hair; and Bertha Walker who established a business school of her own after inventing a new and faster method of shorthand. Going on through the crowd, we catch a glimpse of Jim Jones, Number One Jet Pilot, who set an astounding record in flying with his plane, The Atonic Blonde. He is talking with Coach Carter Robinson, now training the football boys of DHS, and Wendell Dowdy, the school's truant -26- officer, loved by all for his undying patience with boys who are tardy because their cars won't start• Joining them are Wayne Beyer, owner of a novelty shop here, and Jim Adkins who inherited a fortune and title from England and is a confirmed bachelor. Here come Charles Churchill, who has caught the fancy of millions by his return to the old style singing of Al Jolson; Corky Reak, manager of his father's super market now; and Joe Wamble, co-owner of the Radio Cab Service here. Imogene La Rue, star of the Grand 01' Opry, is visiting with Beverly Miller, who has just returned from a European tour where she amazed that continent with her abilities in badminton. Walking toward them are Bonnie Anderson, the world's champion typist; Paul Montgomery, who has been entitled Dare-devil of the Skies because of his feats as a para- chute thrill jumper; and Joe and Gene Fields, co-owners of the Fields Dairy Farms. Breaking into the circle of conversation are Harold Hill and Ronald Harmon, who are on the coaching staff of the American Olympic swimming team. Over in the comer is Paul Sutton showing everyone how he can balance four milk bottles on his nose as he does in his Broadway variety show. Virginia Douglas and Lula Belle Burchett are fretting over the expansion of their Home Economics classes here because of a new fad called marriage. Bobby Crow interrupts their worried thoughts with a brief outline of his newly published song book of the hillbilly tunes of Missouri. Just coming through the arched doorway are Carolyn Groves, who now has her own modeling agency; Claudine Arnold, first woman to beadmitted to the Stoddard County Bar Association; Mona White, star of the Women's International basketball team; and Edward Tippen, who concocted the popular soft drink, Schaper Cola. Listening while Charles Brasier tells about the atomic explosions which he helped conduct are Martha Griffin, brilliant young author who wrote Why Women Cry; Naomi Norman, who is head of a bookkeeping agency here; and Buddy Tippen, who now has his leg in a cast after breadking it in a search for new scenes to paint along the Monogolian border. Phyllis Carney is displaying her latest hat which she designs so beauti- fully, and looking on are Patricia Burke, hostess here at Hotel Dexter; and Nettie Sue Craig, who graduated from Missouri University with the highest honors ever received by a woman and now is the first female superintendent in the history of Dexter. Joining them is Loudean Chris- man, head of a women's employment agency. Alphonse Banken is telling his group about the dangers he encountered while scaling Mount Everest. Listening in awe are Oduo Eubanks and Jean Fields, star reporters for the Dexter Daily News, and Florence Frame, who was the first successful woman train engineer. Waiting to tell the group how he established the record for sleeping and fasting which he maintained by his application of Yogi is Lawrence Carwile. —27— Here are the heroes of our class. Major Leroy Cox and Major Glen Toung of the U.S. Army, and who are Missouri’s most decorated men. With them are Vernon Francis, now working on a combination Auto-plane; and Marvin Gamer and Dean Culbertson, inventors of a typewriter which makes no errors• Sporting orchid corsages at the next table are Connie Wilkey, Barbara Patterson, and Fay Etta Gamer, who have combined their efforts and talents to form a new infant wear designing and manufacturing firm here. Loren Kilmer and Dorothy Cole are seated with them. Loren is professor of English at Northwestern University, and Dorothy has become a second Betty Crocker in the home economics field. James Johnson and Netia Jenkins are telling about Hollywood where they co-starred in the colossal movie, Where Angels Fear to Tread, and lis- tening are Bonnie Lawrence, manager of a beauty bar, and Harley Lovins, who actually became the mayor of Hayseedville. Far across the room we can see Rev. Ora Smith, who is being hailed all over the world for his work; Jerry Thrower, a detective on the local police force; and Shirley Webb, head of the recently established Women’s Detective Force, a branch of the International Security Force. Strolling toward the center of the room are Marlene Wagner, Doris Sheehy, and Joan Riddle, Managers of a large cosmetic firm which advertises the famous No-Run Complexion. Also there are Dorlus Lawrence and Marie McClar, teachers in the Bloomfield school system; Norma Myers, English instructor in DHS, and Joann Pace and Virginia Williams, who conduct group singing on a national church hour. Here at the last table are Faye Musgrave, Carol Jean Proffer, and Dorothy Ragsdale. These three girls established a very profitable business in a flower shop. They have developed a new line of roses which they have named the Robertson Rose. Ladies and gentlemen, that concludes the review of this important event, and we sincerely hope that all of you have enjoyed this program. And now, bidding farewell to this class of outstanding people, we say, ’Good evening to all.’ —28— fani ta Row 1.

Others have entered and dropped since the beginning of school. The first thing the Juniors looked for la a way of Miring noney and we came up with the annual Junior rrawaage sale. The next project took place during the football and basketball games when we sold hotdogs, candy, and coffee. Ttaring the months of December, January, and February we sold sandwiches every Friday. With all of this and our magazine sales we have netted a very nice profit. One of the highlights of the year was our Junior Play, ■Calling All Carrs, which was presented November 15. It proved to be a huge success. Another outstanding tiling happened this year. Our candidate for Carnival Queen won! Thanks to the hard workers. Also the football queen fro,, class.
