Class History The sun is high. The prairie stretches for endless miles. We see in this desolate land the towering structures of two ranch houses, whose lands are divided by a fence. The only visible signs of 'life are two tell-tale dust clouds approaching from opposite direc- tions. These clouds foretell the arrival of the two groups of settlers who are to revive the spirit of this land. The wagons approach the respective ranches and stop. The set- tlers dismount and view their chosen land. This is the beginning of the Greatest Class Ever. The anxious cowhands who board the wagon train that stops at the Shiloh ranch, alias Sam Houston Elementary School include Chuck Nelson, Tommy Anderson, Gloria Ann Garcia, Frankie Slone, Magdalen Vackar, Enda Good, Judy Vance, Lester Coalson, Tommy Miller, Oscar Rodriguez, Billy Tipton, Sandy Maxwell, Billie Hillman, Terry Ford, Danny Dunham, Becky Vance, Donald Egg, Gus Zavadil, Renee Burditt, Champ Cook, Danny Koop, Rusty Carroll, Robbin Odom, Lillie Orzabal, john Woods, Leonor Moreno, and George jurica who moves on to the settlement of Vanderbilt after Shiloh's first payday. Tall in the saddle Larry Braddock rides in from LaWard in time to be counted as one of the 27 expert Shiloh cowpokes. Across the fence we watch the Ponderosa, alias Stephen F. Austin Elementary School begin its reconstruction with the rip roaring group consisting of Leroy Nava, Forrest Wiegand, Rick Knowles, jimmy Curlee, Brenda DaPron, Patty DeBord, Kathy Slusher, Chipper Koch, Leonard Steffek, Charles Unger, Paula Seligman, Joe Whitley, Char- lotte Heimlich, Brenda Sowell, Bessie Steffek, Linda Sloan, Sharyl Cardwell, and Gloria Floyd. This country proves to be too much for little Charlotte Heimlich who leaves the Ponderosa for Big Springs. That Southern soprano, Beverly Clark, glides in from Port Lavaca just in time to give the cowpokes a few notes on how to sing those deep base range lullabies. In the fall of the second year Glenda Hamman and Lynn Utz gallop in from the secluded Winter's ranch in the valley just in time to help with the table clearing at the Ponderosa. About this time we see GD alias Genell Franek stumbling into the Ponderosa and close behind comes a pale Industrial girl, Barbara Warburton, crawling in from the Cobra Country. The Ponderosa is now 22 strong with the additions of Mary DeLeon, David Marthiljohni, and the transfer of Rusty Carroll from across the fence. Three calmer cowpokes, namely Jane Ottley, Barbara Herin, and Ginger Holloway trot into Shiloh in time for the Saturday night dance in town. The Munoz sisters, Stella and Lenora, ride in from Banquete to aid the ranch hands in the second year's rebuilding of Shiloh. Wrangler Wayne Bouquet trots over from Victoria to help with the decorating of the Shiloh's halls for the next big shindig. When the news of the shindig reaches the Ponderosa, Rick Knowles is the first one to leave the ranch to get in on the fun next door. The rains come in with Shirley Kubena when she canters into Shiloh in thevthird year from the Point Comfort waterhole. Dorothy Weinmam arrives in time to see Bill Tip- ton, a faithful Shiloh hand, and Linda Sloan a faithful Ponderosa hand swap ranches. The result of a poker bet, no doubt. Tony Figerova arrives at the Ponderosa in time to bid farewell to Leroy Nava who takes a brief trip to Corpus Christi, but returns the same year for undisclosed reasons. During the fourth spring roundup, George jurica decides that his return to Shiloh is his destiny. Meanwhile the Ponderosa welcomes two new cowpokes namely Lupe Estrel- lo, from Francitas, and Robbin Odom, from across the fence.
