They are Stanley Nichols, Marilyn Bohllng, Elizabeth Ackerman, Darlyne Maulsby, and Bill Wettstead. Miss Hulqulst started us on our merry way In our kindergarten year. Delorls Quick and Jackie Bocklus Joined us in the first grade. That year seven eager youngsters crowded into Miss Moore s room. In the second grade Donnie Broman, Marilyn Moore, and Kent Spears joined our class making its way steadily to the doors of knowledge. During both our second and third grade Miss Hurst was our teacher. During the middle of our third grade Kent Spears left. This left 9 in CMiss Ekwall taught us during the fourth grade. Marilyn Moore left during this year. Miss Ekwall was also our teacher for our fifth and sixth grade. Marilyn Moore rejoined us in the fifth grade and Donnie Broman left. The next year we were promoted to the sixth grade where Jim Gish joined us only to leave at the end of the year. „ . . In the seventh grade the class sailed smoothly along with Miss Madsen at In the eighth grade, taught by Mrs. Wendell, there were 3 new additions to our class----Beverle Slaughter, Shirley Smitheram, and Bill Adams. Upon entering our green freshman year we were immediately Joined by John Anderson, Jerry Galusha, Del Galusha, John Lowe, Donna Hulse, Marilyn Dawson, Bernard Arbuck, De Vonne Condon, Jim Snodgrass, and Jean Anderson. Most of them coming from country school, this raised the class to a total of 21. However, during the year Jean Anderson left and Bill Adams left at the end of the year to go to Sutton. Miss Hagarity was our sponsor. Jim Gish rejoined us during our sophomore year from Blue Springs where he lettered in basketball during his freshman year. Dotty Churchill from Ohiowa and Richard Kness from Grafton also Joined the class. Shirley Smitheram left at the end of the year to go to Hebron. Our sponsor was Mr. Green. Our junior year was a memorable year. This was the year we received our class rings, and prepared for the Junior-Senior Banquet and Prom, Moonlight and Roses.” Remember making all those roses? Broadway may have hit produc- tions but so did the Junior class with the play. Apartment Thirteen, directed by Mr. Robert Wayne Brown. At the beginning of our Junior year, Rex Becker from Exeter Joined our class, and Jackie Bockius left at the end of the year to go to Kansas. Our sponsors were Miss Allen and Miss Range. Our senior year was also a highlight of memories. Senior pictures were taken, sneak day, preparing the annual, baccalaureate,and commencement. We had another hit production with The Curious Savage a play revolving around Mrs. Savage an elderly woman. Our director was again Mr. Brown. At the beginning of our senior year Lyn O’Brien from Alexandria joined our class, making it a class of eleven boys and eleven girls. Our sponsors were Miss Allen and Mr. Wochner. n Not Finished-—Just Begun' CLASS PROPHECY This is Channel 22 presenting This Is Your Future Life. Tonight's p;uest is the first woman President of the United States. We will not disclose the name at the present tine. All those who graduated from Fairmont High School twenty years ago, in that memorable class of 55. will be present on our program tonight. Our first guest this evening is the famous Liz Ackerman. She is a professional roller skater in the Roller Derby. During her career she has won 999 medals and is champion Double Eagle Skater in the Belgian Congo. Next is the guy with the crew cut'r, you all remember as John Anderson. John is now chief engineer of atomic research at Salt Plats in Nevada where he hopes someday to Droduee atomic alarm clocks for those people who find it’difficult toget up in the morning. It works on the principle of a big lever with a boxing glove at one end. The third guest of the evening is that ever going-steady Bernard Arbuck who, by the way, is still going steady with his High School sweetheart. Up to this time no wedding date has been set. Bernard is now the owner of a 3000 acre plantation down south, where he is making his h-th million on sunflower seeds, commonly known as Russian Peanuts. And now the handsome, suave, and dignified star of On the Dock. He recently replaced Varlon Brando and is «one other than Rex Pecker. Rex's next picture will be Not Finished, Just Begun in color by purole and white. Our fifth guest this evening is Varllyn Bohllng Churchill. Her twentieth wedding anniversary is approaching before long. After 10 years of marriage she went to college where she took up music and is now band instructor at Oregon State. Now for the girl with the smile who has replaced Liberace, all for the better, and none other than DeVonne Condon Schnieder. DeVonne and her twin daughters recently appeared at Carnegie Hall. This piano trio has toured the country in previous years, and is noted to be the top piano trio in existence. And now the girl you remember as Hotrod Dawson is our next ruest. Her name is now Varllyn Dawson Peters. She was employed as secretary in the Peters Pretzel Packing Plant until she married her boss. She is now the mother of 5 little pretzel-fed children. Our next guests are those two inseparable Galusha cousins—Del and jerry—who have formed a partnership of Galusha and jalusha sellinf£ galosha3. Unfortunately for the welfare of all unmarried women Galusha and Galusha are confirmed bachelors; they are devoting all their time to the sale of galoshas. And now we bring you that dark-haired, deep-voiced Jim Gish. Jim is now coach of the Kentucky basketball team which is rather strange because Jim has never been any farther south than MSouth of the Border, (t ie Nebraska border, that is.) Donna Hulse, our next guest of the evening, has come all the way from Fill Islands to' be with us this evening. She is private secretary to King Sam Song. With her wares she has purchased half interest in Punchy Plantation Pineaople Plant where she has successfully discovered a way to make gold from pineapple Juice. It has been estimated that the price of gold has dropped 99 ®nd If lOO Our next guest this evening is Richard Kness. Richard has just returned from Hernando's Hideaway where he has been hidin' away because he forgot to nay last year's income tax. When he is not hidinr away however, he Is a chemist in the BANG research laboratory in south Grafton. Grafton, as you know, was recently wiped off the map. Our thirteenth and very lucky guest cf the evening Is John Lowe. ■! call him lucky because of the fact that he was the lucky gentleman to successfully marry Marilyn Monroe. This Is the lucky anniversary, but unfortunately Marilyn was unable to attend. John Is all-star football player for the New York Bats and Belfrys. Next our little Moonbeam, Darlpne Manlsby, who has Just returnod from the moon where she has a thriving business or curline; beards on neon m en. Darlene has been on the moon for five years and finds It very accommodatln, Our next guest of the evening Is Marilyn Moore .who Is a H;®tory Professor. A orofessor, as you know, Is one that rets what s left the football coach Is paid. Fortunately, however, she married the football coach, and has a nice yearly Income. She Is also the mother o. a six-man football team, aging from 6 months to 16 years. And now we'd like to Introduce Stanley Ba-ene Nichols and Lvsle T4];Ua-- V ettstead Shorn we knew as Bill and Stan, they 'have JonneJ a tnershlp. The-- create new hair styles for men, such as a oart down trie middle o. the hair and same plastered down on both sides. Cn the side, 3111 is a mode scout for Stan, who Is photographer for Esquire Marazlne. T.vn O'Brien Is our next guest of the evening. She has recently taken over the spaghetti plant In Omaha. Some day she hopes to gain control of the packing Industry and thus have her own meat balls Latest statistics show that business Is Increasing under her compotent hand. Our next ruest Is the girl with the giggle, Delores Quick. Delores Is now head nurse at .Valter Reed Hospital. She Is, In other words, a nurs of people's heads. Delores was married l- years ago and has .hree children. TRIPLETS. Everyone remembers that night that Beverle Slaughter made her debut on the Dayle Walton Television Show. Well, It so happened that a talent scout from Tommy Dorsey's band was listening in. The following week sue sifened the contract and has been singing with them ever since. And now we present that rich, ambitious, richer, more amhltlous, richest, most ambitious .Tares Snodgrass.

The first woman president of the United States, Dotty vynircu-11. whose name we have kept secret till now, has this to say, -Vote for me in '77, and when you die, you'll ret to heaven.

Many of the losses were due to the lack of experience and injuries, but all in all the team showed good sportsmanship and gained knowledge in human relations which is what the game is played for. The following is a short summary of this seasons happenings: Fairmont 11 Shickley 20 A close one but lack of experience is what beat us. Fairmont 12 Dorchester 20 Another one that could have been ours had Lady Luck been with us Fairmont 27 McCool 6 The Tigers chased the Mustangs ell over the field that aftemocr Fairmont 13 Beaver Crossing 39 A little self-confidence could hrve made the score closer. Fairmont 6 Exeter 5U Exeter looked every-bit the State Champion o-r and Fairmont couldn t stop their attack. Fairmont 32 Utica 25 A game which Fairmont just wouldn't lose. Fairmont 0 Milford Injuries ruined us. Fairmont 0 bunch of tough breaks lost this one for us.
