Senior Class History On a typical fall day in 1949 a new group of Freshmen entered the gates of Falls City High School. We felt very lost as we wandered from door to door trying to find our proper classrooms and excessively timid as the upper classmen looked down their noses at us. However, by gathering every ounce of courage we had in us, we soon settled down to this new life with remarkable ease. With our class sponsors, Miss Graves and Mr. Hansen, lending a helping hand, we elected our class officers — Douglas Gibson, president; Ernie Ridgeway, vice-president; and Sally Poage, secretary-treasurer. Ann Carter and Carl Vander Veen were chosen to represent us on the student activity committee. We didn’t finish the first year unrecognized, for Douglas Gibson won a basketball letter and Carol Morehead was elected cheerleader. We also took part in chorus, glee club, band, physical education, and on the Honor Roll. In the fall of 1950 we returned to old Falls City High, now experienced hands at this business of high school life. Under the guidance of Mrs. Cummins, Miss Fase, and Miss Shook, we elected the following leaders: Leah Rae Ketter, president; Charles Baker, vice-president; Helen Wittrock, secretary-treasurer; and Glenda Lunsford and Sarol Wiltse on the Activities Committee. By this time everyone had discovered that we were no ordinary class In the sports field this was proven when Bill Bedwell, Ernie Ridgeway, and Carl Vander Veen earned football letters, and Delmar Bowers, Doug Gibson, and Bob Norton were awarded letters in basketball. Later in the year, Doug Gibson and Carl Vander Veen received track letters. As before, we were well-represented in extra-curricular activities and on the Honor Roll. Carol Morehead again represented us on the cheering squad. After a three-month vacation we returned in 1951 as upper-classmen. The first half of our high school career was over but the best was yet to come. Our first job was to elect new leaders. With the help of our new sponsors, Miss Shook, Miss Fase, Mr. Hansen, and Mr. Hahn, we elected Glenda Lunsford as president; Charles Baker as vice-president; and Leah Ketter, secretary-treasurer. Representing us on the Activities Committee were Bill Bedwell, Virginia Reavis, and Carl Vander Veen. On December 14, the Junior Class Play, “Street of Dreams,” was presented under the direction of Miss Sukovaty. The cast included Gretchen Green, Ann Carter, Leah Ketter, Betty Bell, Linda Buthman, Carol Morehead, Sally Poage, Carole Zentner, Shirley Buch- holz, Charles Baker, Gary Wamsley, George Hunker. Carolyn Raymond, and Jim Dunn. Helen Wittrock spoke between acts and Virginia Reavis was narrator. The staff consisted of Georgia Bauer, Helen Wittrock, Jo Ann Clumpner, Doug Gibson, Dale Krause, Kay Kirk, Virginia Reavis, and Shirley Hamm. This year, as in other years we were well represented in G. A. A. awards, in band and music contests, and on the Honor Roll. We also took a part in Corn-husker County Government. We were very proud when Charles Baker, Bill Bed-well, Leonard Crawley, Charles Ebel, Doug Gibson, Dale Huettner, Gene Killingsworth, Gerald Nolte, Bob Norton, Ernie Ridgeway, Carl Vander Veen, and Richard Wiedmaier received football letters and Doug Gibson, Delmar Bowers, and Bob Norton were awarded basketball letters. Carol Morehead and Linda Buthman were elected as cheerleaders. The climax of our Junior year was the banquet, given on May 3, 1952. The theme of this banquet was “Mardi Gras.” In every way it excelled almost every banquet ever given in Falls City High School. We began our final year at dear old F. C. H. S. by electing the following officers: Arvid Hoel, president; Shirlee Steinhauer, vice-president; Bob Norton, secretary-treasurer. The Seniors having voice on the Activities Committee were Leah Ketter, Carol Morehead, and Charles Ebel. This year we were especially well represented in athletics with Charles Baker, Bill Bedwell, Leonard Crawley, Charles Ebel, Gerald Nolte, Robert Norton, Ernie Ridgeway, Carl Vander Veen, and Richard Wiedmaier, earning football letters, and Delmar Bowers, Doug Gibson, and Bob Norton earning basketball letters. Even more lettered in track. In girls athletics twenty girls earned their second state G. A. A. awards. The Orange Black staff consisted of Helen Wittrock, Donna Schatz, Marjorie Wittrock, Bill Bedwell, Shirley Hamm, Arvid Hoel, Virginia Reavis, Carol Morehead, Sally Poage, Sarol Wiltse, George Hunker, Charles Baker, Leah Ketter, and Bob Norton. Carol Morehead, Linda Buthman, and Glenda Lunsford were elected for the cheering squad. Helen Wittrock was chosen “Miss Falls City” for the Hiawatha Halloween Festival. It was the privilege of the Senior class to be the guests of the Junior class at the annual Junior-Senior Banquet on May 1, 1953. On May 5, the Senior Class Play, “Fog Island,” was presented under the direction of Mr. Korslund. Baccalaureate services were held on May 24, and Commencement exercises on May 28. On May 29 we returned to Falls City High for the last time to receive our report cards. This concludes the 1953 history of the Senior Class, but this certainly does not mean the finish, for the Senior Class is really just beginning! Senior Class Prophecy To all of you I am known as Shirley Hamm — but I am also known by another name, “Madame Know-All, See-All, and Tell-All ” Hidden in my room I have a mirror. Now this is no ordinary mirror but a magic mirror. With this, I can look into the Present, Past, or the Future — whichever I choose. Some of you cannot believe such things can be true, so I shall now consult my mirror to show you how it works. We shall look twenty years into the future to the year of 1973. “Mirror, mirror, in my hand, With the greatest ability in all this land, Please show to me My classmates in ’73.” Aha! The images are becoming clear to me now. Yes, yes — quite clear. Now we can see Falls City as it will be in 1973 — changed, of course, to a large metropolis by the graduates of ’53. On the streetcorner a newsboy is yelling, “Extra! Extra! Read all about it! Scientist invents new space ship! Assistant to fly to moon tomorrow!” It seems that scientist, Gary Wamsley, took Professor Einstein’s place in the world; and with the help of his assistant, Harold Niedfeldt, invented a miraculous, new space ship. Harold will fly to the moon tomorrow, taking off at exactly 5:00 a. m. Oh dear, and Harold was such a nice fellow! Gary wanted to make the trip himself, but his wife, Gretchen Green, simply wouldn’t hear of it. After all, Gary, you know that you couldn’t miss the party that Gretchen has planned for tonight in honor of that great tycoon, Dale Krause. Dale is now one of the richest persons in the United States, having made his fortune from “Krause’s Specially Prepared Pig’s Feet”. It takes someone that knows pigs to make a fortune from pig’s feet! As we pass the newsboy and go on up the street, we see a large sign that reads AUTO CAR RACES. Inside of the coliseum we pause — a familiar face just zoomed by. Why, it’s Sarol Wiltse! She and her faithful old speed car “Mabel” are trying as hard as they can to outrace Bob “Speed Demon” Prater, but she seems to be losing this race. I say, Sarol, “Keep going. You can’t let him beat you! Just think how ‘Mabel’ will feel if you lose!” Leaving the races we head on up the street again. On the corner where Montgomery Ward’s store was formerly located, Max Roland has opened his new restaurant “Max’s Dive” with Betty Kirkendall featured as head cook. Evelyn Goltz, the head waitress, and Max are in a bitter argument over who should get to keep the tips. Max thinks that he pays her enough without the tips, but Evelyn doesn’t agree. Tsk, tsk, Max. Don’t you know that a woman is always right! Passing “Max’s Dive” we go on up the street to the governor’s mansion. Inside, Governor Bill Bedwell is dictating a letter to his confidential secretary, Doris Hillyer, to be mailed to Chief of Police Richard Weid-rnaier. It seems that Joe Passanesi and Ernie Ridgeway forgot to pay their weekly bribe which enables them to run their gambling casino in Arch Weaver’s “Here’s the Place to Play but Not to Stay” Hotel. Richard is supposed to take his best detective, Carl VanderVeen, to the hotel with him to collect or else! When Carl gets a look at the featured torch singer, Glenda “When You Want Me, Just Whistle” Lunsford, he will probably forget the detective job and get a waiter’s job with Ernie and Joe. Then he can watch her and be her own “private detective”. Ann Carter, as head instructor of the Women’s Police Academy, is trying in vain to teach ju jitsu to Joyce Miller. It seems that Joyce can’t get used to throwing people around though. So now Ann will have to give Joyce up as a lost cause and train Elaine Meyers to be a policewoman instead. On down the street we see a door with this sign written across it — PHYSICIATRIST — ELMER HAHN. Elmer is now having a consultation with the former Shirley Buchholz. Shirley has been taking physiciatrie treatments from Elmer ever since her husband, Gerald Nolte, became a multi-millionaire. Elmer says that she doesn’t have anything wrong with her, but Shirley insists that he will find a phobia or a complex if he keeps trying, so he keeps trying. “I’ll think of something one of these days,” says Elmer. Leaving Elmer’s office we once again find ourselves heading down the street. Oh, here comes a parade — no wait! It’s a funeral procession! Herman Bauman, the mortician from Shady Lane Acres, tells us that pharmacist Ray Goolsby got the prescriptions of Glycerin tablets to kill the cat mixed up with some vitamin pills prescribed by Doctor Tom Martin. The poor man’s widow, Beverly Dykes, left Joyce Wamsley at home to baby-sit with her three children while she attends the funeral. Meanwhile, Byron Marteny patiently bides his time before he proposes to Beverly. He fell in love with her children at first sight! What’s this on the corner where the First National Bank used to be? Why, it’s the “Love-it-or-Lump-it” matrimonial agency, run by casanovas Charles Baker and Leonard Crawley. Their recent customer is Kay Kirk who has had so many proposals that she has decided that none of them will do. So, she is leaving it up to Charles and Leonard to find her a “perfect man”. “Won’t I do?” Says Charley. Linda Buthman is giving a big party in her penthouse now. Let’s see who some of her distinguished guests are. There is Arvid Hoel, Commander-in-Chief of the European Forces, talking to Loy Jones, the United States’ ambassador to Egypt. For ten years now, Loy has been searching, but in vain, for his own “Cleopatra”. Keep looking, Loy, you’ll find her yet! Over in the corner is Helen Wittrock, the great opera singer, and her personal companion, Gailya Percival. After making her seventh appearance in Carnegie Hall, she is being highly complimented by Sally Poage, now wife of Vernal Faller, the big industrialist. Vernal is in an argument with Richard Luke, head of the coal miners. (Richard is taking John L. Lewis’ place since John L. passed on. Poor Richard is becoming discouraged though; because, try as he will, he just can’t get his eyebrows to look like a bush!) Just on the other side of Richard is Kay De Wald, famed hat designer. She is listening to the bitter argument over hats between Leah Ketter, movie star and TV actress, and Shirley Steinhauer, top professional model of the United States. Shirley insists that large hats are “the latest thing’’ while Leah says that small hats are just “it”. Neither one has a hat on! Truthfully, they just can’t stand the things! Over in another corner of the penthouse, authors Shirley Dodds and Rosalie Finck are trying in vain to convince Delmar Bowers, publisher, to print their latest book, “The Adventures of Dodds and Finck in Arabia.” Delmar hesitatingly advises her to consult his trusty assistant, George Bauman, tomorrow. Oh, the entertainment has just started. Ronald Wing, Craig Pontious, and Wilbur Tisdel, constituting the “Merry Three Trio” are about to introduce Janet Edward’s new song, “Take Me For a Ride in the Park Where It’s Dark, So I Can See the Stars by the Moonlight at Night.” This makes Janet’s 150th song. We hope this one sells. Naturally all of the women at this party are wearing Buthman-designed gowns. Linda wouldn’t have invited them otherwise! As we leave the party we see this sign. LET FLASHPAN GEORGE DO IT! This is George Hunker’s slogan for his new photography business. George thinks that his business is going to be so booming that he’ll need two extra assistants besides his wife, Georgia Bauer For these assistants he has chosen Ramona Birdsley and Melba Simon. George’s first assignment is to sake pictures of the F. C. H. S. Faculty. Here is a list of the faculty as it now stands: Home Economics Betty Adams English Shirley Brazau Irwin Girl’s Physical Education Carol Morehead Biology Ruth Ruegge History Jack Douglas Agriculture Charles Ebel Coach Douglas Gibson Principal Kenneth Koehler Superintendent Bill Jones You had better make those pictures good, George! In the court house, County Judge Jim Dunn has started his career by fining Gene Killingsworth for disturbing the peace. Gene claims that he was minding his own business in Dallas Runyan’s “The Lazy Hour Pool Hall” when Raymond Niemeyer walked by. “Hon- estly, Judge Dunn,” says Gene, “I don’t know how Raymond got that black eye. He must have fallen down or something!” At the TV studio Donna Schatz and Carolyn Raymond are swooning over Bob “Crooner” Norton. Donna’s Book Shoppe and Carolyn’s Beauty Shop have been sorely neglected since Bob became “Mr. Music of the world.” Never have there been such true fans! On the corner where Firestone’s used to be we see that Marcelle Brauer and Shirley Hamm have just opened their new nursery to take care of the working women’s menaces — excuse me, I meant to say children. Having decided that their half dozen children apiece ought to have someone else to play with, they opened the nursery. A group of children seem to be easier to take care of than a few, but who says that six apiece is a few? Virginia Reavis has decided to take a vacation from her hard work in the home decorating business and visit Dale Huettner’s dude ranch. Since Dale is one of the most eligible men in the country, we suppose that Virginia will get some new ideas during her stay. (Home decorating ideas, of course!) As we pass through the city and on to the suburbs we see a small neighborhood grocery store run by “Ma and Pa Vinsonhaler” (Marvin Vinsonhaler and Rosa York.) Their business rush hour is at four o’clock when school lets out. Then all the neighborhood children come in to beg Ma and Pa for a free piece of candy — that’s why Ma and Pa like the neighborhood. They would hate to make enough money to move away as they originally planned. It would break their hearts, and the kids’ hearts too! At the edge of the suburbs we arrive at the airport as explorer Phyllis Yost is just returning from South Africa where she has been searching for specimens of shrunken heads. When the missionary whom she took with her, Marjorie Wittrock, was seized by the natives, she decided to abandon the search and return home before she too became a shrunken head specimen. Marjorie was busy converting the natives as they carried her off, so she might be fortunate and retain her head. No one knows! The images are fading out now — no wait! Here’s one more. It’s Jack Henley, the loan shark. He has just upped his interest rates another 2rU. Jack says in answer to his customers’ pleas that that is no way to do business, “If the government can raise my taxes, I can raise my interest rate to pay them.” Poor Jack! He just doesn’t know that he will never make enough money to pay his taxes! Now the images have faded away. My magic mirror needs a rest, so I shall put it away saying, “Magic mirror, now you rest After finishing your quest. Thanks to you from me For showing my classmates of ’53.” Senior Class Will We the senior class of 1953, about to depart from one phase of life into another, being: of sound body and feeble mind, do make and proclaim this our last will and testament: FIRST: To be executed by Mr. R.
