JUNIOR, AND SENIOR PROM AND BANQUET As of now when this annual is being written, not all the plans for the prom have been completed, but from what we hear, the Juniors are going to give the Seniors a superb prom and banquet. The date for the big affair has been set for May .?.0th. The Orchestra for this year's prom will be Jimmy Thomas and his band. SENIOR TRIP The Seniors trip this year was as much of the cities that we could see in three days. The three days were May 6, 7, and 8. The trip proved to be a galvanting good time, maybe this was because of the sight seeing tours, and other pastimes which we had. The tour consisted of a visit to the Star and Tribune building, Sister Kenny Institute, Grain Exchange, Artifical Limb Company, and Art gallery, Ford Assembly plant and a Meat Packing plant. Evening entertainment consisted of the Ice Follies, Stairway to Stardom and many other things we chose to see by ourselves. This is certainly a trip which will always be remembered by all Seniors. SPORTSWRITERS During the past year, the score books have been handled by two very capable and attractive scorekeepers. They are Jeanette Stelter and Bernell Werner. Jeanette, who has been at the job for three years, has done her job well handling A team scorekeeping and write-ups. Bernell, who has worked with B team scorekeeping, has done very well and will be very much at ease handling A team affairs next year. The percentage statistics were kept to the Nth degree by Doris Arndt. All three girls certainly should be complimented on their work. OUR JANITOR One person we will never forget when we leave high school is John Stensrud,' our janitor. John is the man responsible for keeping the school as warm and as home- like as he did., He has been her for two years and has done a wonderful job, those two years. We'll miss you a lot, JohnL 30 U

CARNIVAL The carnivaliwas a wonderful success again this year, we had a big crowd and a crowd that was out to make our carnival a successful affair. We had all the usual booths, and some new ones like the side shows, and a rummage sale better than it has ever been before. It was a great event for the Seniors because for all four years during our high school career we have won the carnival Queen race through the sale of presale tickets. The Queen for this year was Darlene Dahl, the King was Llewellyn Hagen. Their attendants were Donna Schlemmer, Argene Froland, Joan Johnson, Ray Mulenberg, Delphane Markgraf, and Rolf Mowhinkel. JUNIOR CLASS PLAY The Junior Class put on a very side -splitting class play this year on December lst, at the schoolhouse. The play Our Gal Sa1, summed up in a few words was the story of a country girl who came to the city to stay with an aunt, who was a neighbor to a very rich family. When she was a little girl and acted very much like A Country Hick, she met the son of this rich family and was sure from then on she wanted to marry him. The play becomes very funny when she tries to make this young man notice her, and in so doing introduces some very Slapstick friends. The cast was as follows: Sally Skinner, Our Gal Sal ----------- Mildred Rust Mrs. Cecilia Vandyne, a society matron - - - - - Marilyn Johnson Allison Vandyne, her young daughter ---- - - Bernell Werner Glenn Vandyne, Cecilia's young handsome son - - - - James Barber Nella Yardley, Sal's gossiping aunt -------- Nonie Chapman Dagmar Waring, of the elite ------- - - Donna McCoy Dexter Westbrooke, a wealthy financier ------- r John Eldred Ronald Spangler, who is on the Cops ------- Bill Hansvick Daisy Judkins, who hails from Soap Lake - - - - 'Dorothy Truax HONOR STUDENTS Hats off to Marjorie Dietz, the Valedictorian, and Jeanette Stelter, Salutatorian, of 'our class. Their grades were grades which couldn't be beat. Both these girls proved very capable of handling their studies with the Greatest of Ease all through their high school career. Marjorie had a straight A average, and Nettie very close behind with about and A- average. Shirley Bode, Doris Arndt, Clayton Anderson, and Joyce Hustad followed these two honor students holding the ranks of 3-6 respectively. 29
