To the Sophomores we bequeath our well-behaved manner. To the Fresh- men we bequeath our toys. Viola Ackerman wills her boy friends to Sherry Adams, her long glossy hair to Bonna Hulse and her brains to the Freshmen Class. Bert Adams tell- ing about a football experience, stops long enough to will his good looks to Hugh Dado, his ability to go out every night to Bill Adams.

Harry Bohllng, sitting down to play his bass horn, wills his ability to play musical instruments to Johnny Anderson, his height to Dick Smith and his brains to who ever can use them, (he can't) Jerry Dawson, looking out from behind a basketball whistle, wills his coaching ability to Wayne Cantrell, his drawing hand to Channey Komarek and his car to Jerry Heinz so he can be out every night. Carroll Demaree looks up from a 4-H project and wills her height to Jim Snodgrass and her figure to no one. Corrlne Demaree wills her blushing face to Vin- cent Babcock. Lois Ely wills her boy friends to Betty Ackerman, her figure to Richard McMahon. Bill Jacobsen, putting his arm around Jean, wills his ability to get to Milligan every other Sunday night to Marvin Nichols, his wavey hair to Delmar Little and his ability to ride a bucking bronco goes to Sandra Hurst.

CLASS PROPHECY And now quicker Oats those fine, crunchy oats with the tangy flavor, bring you Lineup of Famous People.' The program this week is devoted to the class of 1952, from Fairmont High School. Ihe first person to be discussed is CarrollLemaree, who recently bought the New York Giants, and challenged her sTsEerTtorrlne Demaree, who owns the New York Yankees, to an exhibition game. It was the longest game on record and ran 52 innings with many of the players collapsing of exhaustion. Final score 0-0. Gene Nichols, former Governor of Nebraska, successfully ran for Senator on boih tickets and was elected unanimously. He is known as a Demopublican. In a public statement he said that much of his success was due to the un- tiring efforts of his secretary, Viola Ackerman. Norma Smltheram recently appeared at Carnegie Hall. Critics say she is a wonderful singer, and they foresee a long career for her. They also raved about her accompanist, one of the trained horses from Marshall Hill's famous Wild «Vest Shows which appears at Madison Round Garden annually. Bennie Pike is a smash hit in his newest Broadway production, Eskimo Love 3ongv' in which he made famous the 3ong, I Only Have Ice or You. Lois Ely is, for some reason, opening a branch office to her large Fairmont Orphanage in Mew York. Kids just love her. Pert Adams is head coach at Notre Dame where he perfected a nev; dazzl- ing sleeper play, for which, we must admit, his boys are well qualified. That daredevil, Allan Pollock, did it again last week. He jumped across the Hudson River on his motorcycle. He said he did it on a dare. Bill Jacobsen and Jean Arbuck are married and own the biggest ranch in Fillmore County. They also do car wrecking on the side. Jerry Dawson, the multi-millionaire General Uotorsman, announced his new invention ! Dawson's Dandy Little Whistling Valve Caps are to be sold nation-wide soon. Harry Bohling, while experimenting with some Hyper-sonic electronic apparatus, disappeared in a cloud of blue smoke. He was discovered six days later by a helicopter that happened to pass the cloud he was floating on. Remember, this program was brought to you by Quicker Oats, those deli- cious oats, made by Donna Q.uick and Company. Tune in next week for another fine program, Lineup of Famous People. CLASS HISTORY Yes, Johnny way back in 1940, thirteen of us started to the first grade, Miss Weber taught us to draw and build with blocks. iss Swanson ’.as our second and third grade teacher. I'll never forget the play we put on, Landing of the Pilgrims , and the big Christmas trees she used to buy. The fourth and fifth grades were the interesting years spent gazing at the relics in the old cabinet that were accumulated through the years by our teacher, Miss Jackson. We coasted through the two following years under Miss 3ussell. Then the year that will never leave us. Miss Sandall started to teach us in the eighth but left soon after the start of school. We then inherited the red- headed Miss Zeleny. Ihe grade basketball team missed a game that year be- cause of a vigorous eraser fight. In the fall of 48 twenty rowdy freshmen dropped their grade school hab- its in order to acquire high school ones. Bunk Hill gave a classical strip tease behind a sheet for Initation. Ihe remaining nineteen were dressed to suit the taste of the seniors. When we were booted out of the Freshmen section we became Sophomores but we were scattered ull over the assembly in order to cut down commotion. The Sophomore year was so ary that we unanimously decided to be Juniors the next year. The completion of the new gym gave our class the opportunity of putting on the first class play (Weak in the Knees) on the new stage and the Junior- Senior Banquet (Dude Ranch) and we had the first dance band (Gene Harding) in the history of F.H.S. We spent days hauling hay and putting up streamers. ‘Ve also bought our class rings that year. Our last year in these tranquil walls found us having our Senior pic- tures taken, (Bennie Pike went to the wrong studio to have his taken), and ordering graduation invitations (not valentines). Publishing the annual and our Sneak Day were both a howling success. At last we come to Baccalaureate and Commoncement after spending twelve long years behind the pencili Say Johnny you should be getting off to bed, you start to school tomor- row, remember. 14 ? rl Senior Class Row I.

Injuries and sicxness plagued the team, throughout the year as they went into only three panes full stre- ngth. The Tipers looked very pood in their win over Beaver Crossing but looked weak in their three losses to the strong I'cCool, Exeter, and Milford sextets. Marshall Hill, Bert Adams, and Bennie Pike received mention on the Trailway League All-Star Team. Seniors, Bert Adams, Marshal' Hill, Gene Nichols, Bill Jacobsen, and Bennie Pike, will be lost to next years team. BERT JERRY INDIVIDUAL SCORING Player TD EP T?

The team played good ball at times but it never seemed that all the boys could find the bucket on the same night. Fairmont played excellent basketball against Exeter, winning both games. The 58 - 42 defeat of McCool, before the District Tourney, was another season highlight. The following boys received their major letter for the season: Bert Adams, Gene Nichols, Marvin Nichols, Jerry Heinz, Bennie Pike, Gerald Dawson, and Bill Jacobsen will be lost to next year s team by graduation. The second team, although winning only 3 of 14 games, showed excellent ball handling and except for the lack of height would have done much better. Their upset win over Exeter s second team was the season high point in their rather disappointing season. 14 ? Girls Vollyball Row I.

Junior-Senior Banquet Iliis year's Junior-Senior Banquet-Prom, which was held April 25 in the new gym, was planned around the theme of Southern Plantation Party The evening began with a delicious meal, prepared by the Junior's moth- ers and served by eight sophomores. The menu consisted of: fruit cock- tail, Swiss steak, mashed potatoes and gravy, sweet potatoes, buttered corn, toss salad, and ice cream nut roll. The gym was decorated to represent a Southern veranda and garden, complete with porch pillars and grass. The main attraction in the gar- den was the wishing well from which the punch was served. Upon completing the meal, Vincent Babcock. Junior class president and toastmaster, led off the program with a welcome to all. This was followed by a response from the Senior class president, Gene Nichols. Songs by the triple trio and a piano solo by DeVonne Condon made up the musical portion of the program. After the reading of the class proph- ecy by Donna Quick and the class will by Alan Pollock, the floor was cleared for an evening of dancing to Gene Harding s orchestra. Sports Banquet The Athletic Banquet was held on Friday, Uarch 2Q in the basement of the Federated Church. The delicious meal served by the eighth grade girls, consisted of minute steaks, mashed potatoes, FTench-cut green beans, salad, and orange sherbert. The speaker was Merrill Rose of Geneva, an alumnus of F.H.S. His speech centered around the theme of Key To Victory or what makes a winning team. The honorary football captain was Gene Nichols, who unfortunately was ill with the murnps and the honorary basketball captain was Bert Adams. After the banquet a dance was held in the little gym. Later in the evening the second annual crowning of the King and Queen of Sports was held. Joyce Koca was elected Queen and Gene Nichols was chosen Kin In Gene's absence, llarvin Nichols was elected as substitute.
