SENIOR CLASS HISTORY In September, 1956, we entered Falls City High School as the lowest form in school—Freshmen. To make up for this we organized and as class officers we elected: President, Bob Brown; Vice-President, Judie Majerus; Secretary-Treasurer, Carol West. We even succeeded in placing two of our number—Jim Foster and Judy Cheever—on the activities committee.

On May 6, 1959, we gave the seniors, the faculty, and the board of education an elegant banquet and dance. Our theme was “Hawaiian Paradise.” Roger Thornton was the toastmaster; Jim Nedrow gave the welcome, and Dona Friesen, senior class president, gave the response. It was the greatest banquet ever given for Seniors. Bob Brown, David Reavis, and Roger Thornton went to the State Music Clinic at Grand Island. Boys in the F. F. A. were Willie Craig, George Arnold, Dale Chesnut, and Wayne Martin. In September, 1959, we rounded the clubhouse turn and into the home stretch.

We elected Ron Harris, President; John Boswell, Vice-President; Wauneta Bachman, Secretary; John Otto, Treasurer; and Tom McGuire, Larry Beasing, and Edward Steinman, the activities committee. Outnumbered by the more numerous underclassmen, we still managed to get Judie Majerus elected cheerleader by using our marvelous political tactics.

On May 6, 1960, the Senior Class presented a three-act play, “Growing Pains,” by Aurania Rour-cral. The play was ably directed by Mrs. Ahern and well received by the audience. Comments on the play ranged from “Wonderful cast, great acting”—the cast, to “Marvelous—just like a real play”—Strauss-ville Gazette. In the cast and helping backstage were Roger Thornton, Becky Wrindle, Linda Tubach, Tom McGuire, Jane Hahn, Judy Hunzeker, Wauneta Bachman, David Lunsford, John Boswell, Charles Hatfield, Roland Gibson, Richard Allen Monroe, Jr., John Otto, Imogene Becker, Shirley Cunningham, Rachel Witt-rock, Judy Cheever, Thelma Merz, Patsy Fritz, Judy Wehrman, Charlotte Robinson, Billie Adams, and Nancy Kelly.

On May 13, the last day of school for the seniors, Class Day Exercises were held. May 22, Baccalaureate Services were held, and May 26, Commencement Exercises were held. What kind of day was it? A day like any day, filled with those events which alter and illuminate the history of our time, and we—The Senior Class of 1960—were there. Roger Thornton SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY It was a lovely evening, and as I walked home I looked up into the sky and noticed how the stars formed different patterns and figures. As I continued gazing with wonder, I noticed that these figures seemed to be moving. Then, very much to my surprise, this strange vision turned out to be a great picture of my classmates, the class of 1960. But now they had changed and were transformed into citizens of the world as they had so long hoped to be. And then the vision became more and more vivid. I was in a mammoth city with great skyscrapers all about me. Why, it was New York City! I could scarcely believe my senses when I saw a large sign on a building, “Edward Steinman, Attorney-at-Law.” Ed, the boy who couldn’t lie, was sitting in a large office debating over legal problems. As I walked down the street, I saw two nurses. They turned out to be my old friends, Judy Hunzeker and Imogene Becker. I understand that they are specializing in love-sick men. I hurried on by and caught a taxi to the airport. As we sped down the road, we passed a large mansion. The driver, Joyce Shaw, told me that this was the home of the millionaire, Thomas Dunn. You see Lassie, the once favorite dog of all the small television viewers, is no longer t'he same dog. The ideal pet of today’s small fry is DUKE. The plane was just about ready to leave as I approached the airport. Patsy Fritz, the airline stewardess, greeted me at the door, and handed me a paper. As I glanced through it, my eyes widened as I noticed some very familiar names in the headlines: George Arnold has just published two books, “How to Become Handsome Overnight” and “My Theories on Girls.” Marylou Brisby has brought suit against Jack Clark, claiming that it was she who painted the Mona Lisa, not he. James Nedrow, a pharmacist, in his spare time has created a formula which, if taken regularly, will make the average girl into a gorgeous beauty. Does it really work, James? John “Hercules” Honea will wrestle at Madison Square Garden next week. Connie Kirkendall has created a new bubble gum formula lor those Bigger, Better, Bangier Bubbles. Becky Windle, an internationally well-known author, has just completed her greatest writing, “Why I Love Sailors.” Judy Wing has become a menacing competitor of Duncan Hines with her new cake mix, “Hermie’s Heaven,” with its first introduction at the Safeway store run by Karlus Moore. Rachel Wittrock won the champion hog-calling medal in Sugar Tree, Tennessee. Perry Marquis is a scientist who is worshipped by all housewives. You see, Perry has invented an electronic door lock that keeps husbands home at night. Laying the paper down, and feeling quite amused, I turned around to see who was sitting across the aisle from me. I beheld a very dignified gentleman dressed in black. I thought I had seen that face somewhere, but I couldn’t put it in its place. Just then the stewardess came and spoke to him. She called him Reverend McBride. Why this was Donald McBride! I had recently heard that Brother Donald was either going to found a new church according to his own views and beliefs, or carry his doctrines into new lands, and thus create a new religion for someone. Soon the plane landed at the Hollywood airport and Judy Cheever, a talented dress designer, met me. We whizzed down the street in her red sports car. She told me that we would buzz down to Television Land to see some of our old classmates: Larry Beasing, Roger Thornton, and Glenda West. Larry is now that dreamiest, most lovable, Dobie Gillis. Of course, none other than Roger Thornton is Maynard, his beatnik friend. Glenda has taken over Miss Francis’s job on Ding Dong School. That night we went to a very swanky night club and saw Janet Hinz, who is head cigarette girl there. Larry Killingsworth, the owner of a magnificent Palm Springs Hotel, was sitting across the room from us. He flashed a large diamond ring on his finger, and I knew that he must be doing quite well for himself. When the waiter brought wine to the table, I noticed on the label these words, “Tasted and approved by Jim Foster of the California Grape Orchards.” Having enough of Hollywood, I boarded a plane and headed for Omaha, Nebraska. Jane Hahn was in Omaha. She had taken over Mary Lane’s column and was desperately pondering over Wauneta Bachman’s love problems. Jane not only knows answers to troubles, but also knows all the gossip. She told me that Billie Adams, Marilyn Coulter, and Shirley Lowry are neighbors in Omaha and are quite often seen exchanging confidences over the fence as to this or that domestic difficulty. Jim Catlett and John Marx are presently President and Vice-President of the A. A. A. with Dave Lunsford, Charles Hatfield, Ronnie McCoy, and Dave Reavis on the board of directors. Sharon Marrs is a Salvation Army officer in Omaha. Richard Malcolm is a noble professor in a great school of learning. All his pupils look at him in rever- ence of the vast knowledge he acquired at Falls City High School. Ronnie Harris is teaching chemistry in Alaska to the Eskimos. Finally, I arrived at my old Home Town. It was really wonderful to be back, but there had been some changes since I had lived here. John Boswell, Dale Chesnut, and Wayne Martin are operating a cheap transport service between Falls City and California for those students who are looking for a brighter future in the sunny west. Bob Brown is still trying to explain the fourth dimension to Coach Peterson. Elmer Butler, a motorcycle cop, is busily arresting speed-happy teenagers in the high school parking lot. Martha “Cookie” Cain has become the sexiest weather girl KTNC ever had. Mary Ellen Gaither and Karen Yohe have formed the “Happy Hour” knitting club for those lonely Monday nights when their hubbies are at Guards. Willie Craig and Charles Stevens say that farming makes them dizzy. They get all tangled up in the rotation of crops. Dennis Crofford continues to spend his time at the poolhall as manager. Karen Gerlt is driving the Stella school bus. Ronnie Gilkerson, who has his own beauty shop, is specializing in those little curls for “Little Women.” Ronnie Gibson is still selling lots to those in need of them. Judie Majerus is now a happy wife and mother who has found her greatest ambition in the highest of all worldly vocations—the maker and keeper of the home. Thelma Merz is helping her dad sell tractors and combines in a leopard bikini bathing suit. I hear they’re selling like hot cakes. Betty Vogele is still here in town working on a new formula to restore older ladies’ white hair to its natural color. Donald Wenz has set up a bait shop at Rulo and is digging worms for the fishermen. As I walked into a drug store I saw a Falls City Journal on the counter. The first article I read was one written by the president of Geneva Girls’ School. Miss Linda Apel still insists that there is really no bad girl. Dorothy Goltz and Alice Winsor did their famous Pow Wow Dance at the Sidney Rodeo last night. Judi Heineman is somewhere in Africa selling ice-cream cones to the natives for immense sums of money. Nancy Kelly is in Florida designing men’s Bermuda shorts. Harold Lewis is now a cowboy in the wilds of the wooly west. He has shown wonderful bravery and endurance in his job. Douglas Ludwig, a man of iron endurance, is now a sergeant in the army and is quite capable of handling his job. Tom McGuire is in the State Psychological Department still advocating Freudian principles, although he is not a staff member. The big question in Hollywood today is whether Dick Monroe will receive the role of Tarzan at MGM. Eileen and Elaine Niedfeldt are renting a magnificent apartment in a large foreign city. Virgil Scheitel, a respectable Falls City father, is running for city council so he can have the curfew changed from 11 o’clock to 9 o’clock. An article that really amused me was that Peggy Pickard, head spy of Scotland Yard, had been called to Falls City High School to trace fingerprints on shorthand notes found by Mr. Coba in his government class. Then I saw a most handsome picture of Delmar Rieschick. Delmar, according to some of the leading men’s magazines, is the Most Eligible Bachelor of 1990. Charles Marteny is now teaching English at Harvard; we always knew Mrs. Hoffman would finally get it through to him. Judie Wehrman is employed at the world’s largest zoo and is painlessly extracting walrus teeth by hypnosis. Carol West is “house mother” for the boys’ dorm at St. Benedict’s. Charlotte Robinson has just given birth to her twelfth child. The more Bachmans the merrier. Down at the bottom of the page I found this unusual advertisement: If you have soft, tired, irritated, perspiring, chafed, and tender feet, we recommend the best-selling cure-all, Dr. John Otto’s Foot Powder. Finally before folding the paper I noticed on the society page that Shirley Cunningham recently threw a party in Virginia, bigger and better than ever before. Shirley is known as the southern dainty lady of society, envied and flattered by all, the queen of every gathering, and the bell of every ball. Well, my little trip was very interesting, but I hurried to catch the train back to Omaha so I could fly home to Florida where I was a marriage counselor. Just then I heard a loud noise, and as I turned around I saw some of my friends stopping to pick me up. Why I wasn’t in a strange world after all; I had just prophesied the lives of my classmates.

Shirley Cunningham The Senior Class of 1960 selected Shirley for the honor of representing Falls City High School as Miss Falls City at the annual Halloween Festival at Hiawatha, Kansas. She and her attendants were introduced between halves of the Omaha Cathedral-Falls City football game. Fred Peterson Bob Henderson Assistant Football Coach Junior High Basketball Junior High Track Head Coach Football Basketball Track 1959 FOOTBALL SEASON Sixty-five candidates reported in late August for the football squad, including 10 lettermen from the previous year. The season turned out to be one of the best record-wise but one of the worst weather-wise in many years. The Tigers turned out to be a strong defensive team and yet had enough scoring punch to wind up the season with an undefeated record. This was good for the third consecutive Twin Rivers Conference Championship. The over-all season record ended with a 7-0-2 record. FALLS CITY—12 FAIRBURY—0 The Tigers were ready for their opener with the Jeffs and showed a lot of offensive finesse along with the stout-hearted bunch of defensive linemen. Ron Harris was credited with both of the touchdowns and tackle Bill Gilkerson was the standout in the star-studded line as he crashed in time after time to upend the Fairbury ball carriers. FALLS CITY—6 BEATRICE—0 A steady, all-day drizzle and occasional downpour turned into a real drencher shortly before game time. Most of the game was played in the middle of the field. A bad pass from center by the Orangemen set up a Boswell to McGuire touchdown pass for the margin of victory. Coach Henderson was well pleased with the showing of the squad and credited the entire squad with a “fine team victory.” FALLS CITY—13 LINCOLN PIUS X—0 The Bengals kept their goal line uncrossed for the third straight game as they ground out a 13-0 decision over the Thunderbolts. Halfbacks Steve Sperry and Ron Harris ground out steady gains to keep the visitors in trouble. Larry Beasing and Bill Gilkerson also turned in fine performances for the Bengals. FALLS CITY—O AUBURN—0 In the long-awaited game with the Bulldogs, the weatherman refused to co-operate and the postponed game had to be played in a two-inch downpour of rain. Neither team was able to move the ball consistently because of the condition of the field and the scoreless deadlock was inevitable. FALLS CITY—27 TECUMSEH—6 The Tigers had their goal line crossed for the first time in a game w’hich found the team playing its most sluggish of the season. The touchdown by the opponents jolted the Tigers and they came through with 21 points in the second half to clinch a victory. Fred Brewer, regular guard, suffered a knee injury late in the game. FALLS CITY—7 PLATTSMOUTH—0 An inspired Blue Devil team kept the Falls City offense in check until the final six minutes of the game. A Beasing to McGuire pass set up the only touchdown of the game. Boswell played a great second half and Bruce Smith stood out on defense. Bill Gilkerson was clipped just before the first half ended and came out with a knee injury that was to sideline him for most of the remainder of the season. FALLS CITY—12 NEBRASKA CITY—7 The Tiger game with the Pioneers was two games in one. The first half was completely dominated by Nebraska City which ended 7-0 in their favor. The second half was a complete reversal, as the Tigers scored twice and held the Pioneers scoreless. Both of the Falls City touchdowns were scored by Steve Spen y, and Terry Lippold came off the bench to help keep Falls City out of trouble. FALLS CITY—31 CRETE—6 Falls City High’s “mudders” were not affected by an incessant drizzle and sloshed their way to a convincing 31-6 victor over the Cardinals to fly the Twin Rivers Conference flag for the third straight season. A great desire to win was evident with strong line play, crisp blocking and tackling and some fine ball carrying. It would have to be classified as a “team victory.” FALLS CITY—19 OMAHA CATHEDRAL—19 The Tigers had to settle for their second tie of the season in a see-saw battle with the Cardinals from Omaha. Falls City took the lead in the third quarter, then had to hang on in the fourth to preserve an undefeated season. It was the last game for seniors McGuire, Beasing, Gilkerson, Harris, Nedrow, Otto, Marquis, Honea, Boswell, Dunn.

THE 1959-1960 BASKETBALL SEASON Eighteen upperclassmen reported to Coach Henderson for the start of the 1959-60 Basketball season. The squad was dominated by senior lettermen in Beasing, Boswell, Harris, McGuire, Otto, Gibson, and Bob Brown, who returned after a year's absence because of a knee injury. The season turned out to be a complete reversal of the 1958-59 season. The Tigers played steady ball all season and ended the regular season with a 13-3 mark and a 15-4 over-all record. The three regular season losses, however, were all conference games and dropped the Bengals to third place in both the Southeast and Twin Rivers Conferences, but they bounced back to win their Class A district and gain a berth in the State Tournament. FALLS CITY—57 SEWARD—28 The Bengals turned in an impressive opening season performance with an easy romp past the Blue Jays. Harris led the scoring with 16 points, followed by Boswell and Brown with 10 each. FALLS CITY—43 HIAWATHA—29 The Tigers posted their second victory of the season over the Indians in a slow-type ball game. Harris was high with 19 points. FALLS CITY—51 TECUMSEH—43 The Bengals raced to an early 16-1 lead, then had to play ball control in the final minutes to edge out the Indians. Brown and McGuire tied for scoring honors with 14 each. FALLS CITY—35 BEATRICE—44 The Orangemen handed the Tigers their first defeat of the 1959-60 season by pulling away in the last quarter for a Twin Rivers Conference victory. Harris had 15 points for Falls City. FALLS CITY—54 CRETE—39 The Tigers got their first Twin Rivers Conference victory at the expense of the Cardinals. Harris had 22 points and Boswell 16 for Falls City. FALLS CITY—61 PAWNEE CITY—38 After a slow first half the Tigers caught fire to easily handle Pawnee City. McGuire had 17 points, followed by Harris with 16. FALLS CITY—58 FAIRBURY—34 The tall Jeffs were no match for the smoothperforming Tigers as they chalked up victory number six. Harris was high with 18 points. FALLS CITY—42 NEBRASKA CITY—44 A cold night at the basket proved to be the Tigers’ downfall, but a great last-minute rally almost brought the game out of the fire. Brown had 13 points followed by McGuire with 12. FALLS CITY—60 UNIVERSITY HIGH—36 The Bengals regained their shooting eye and broke a University High jinx of the last three years by defeating the Tutors. McGuire was high with 18 points. FALLS CITY—52 OMAHA CATHEDRAL—51 Accuracy at the free throw line helped the Tigers squeeze by the Cardinals. Brown topped Falls City with 18 points. FALLS CITY—58 PIUS X—38 The Tigers opened up an early lead and maintained the superiority throughout to make nine victories in eleven games. Brown again was high with 16 points. FALLS CITY—47 AUBURN—48 The Bengals were 15 points behind the Bulldogs with five minutes remaining and fought back to within one point as the game ended. Harris had 19 points for Falls City. FALLS CITY—59 PLATTSMOUTH—56 The Tigers had to use a good shooting percentage to edge out the Blue Devils in a Twin Rivers Conference game. Harris had 19 and McGuire 13 points for Falls City. FALLS CITY—50 NEBRASKA CITY—34 A determined bunch of Tigers avenged an earlier defeat by the Pioneers and handed them their first defeat of the season. The game was played at Peru College. Harris was high with 18 points. FALLS CITY—60 HIAWATHA—45 The seniors, playing their last home game, gained a second decision over the Indians from Kansas. Harris and Boswell tied for scoring honors with 16 points each. FALLS CITY—52 BELLEVUE—34 The Tigers eased by the Chieftans in the last regular season game and wound up with a very respectable 13-3 record. Harris had 22 points for Falls City. DISTRICT TOURNAMENT FALLS CITY—69 HASTINGS—56 Ron Harris hit the season high of 29 points to lead the Tigers past Hastings in the first round of the district. FALLS CITY—39 FAIRBURY—30 The Bengals used a strong defensive game to thump the Jeffs for the second time and earn a ticket to the state tournament in Lincoln. Harris had 15 points followed by Boswell with 13. STATE TOURNAMENT FALLS CITY—47 ALLIANCE—54 A four-point second quarter proved to the Tigers to be their downfall against a well-balanced Alliance team. The Bengals fought back, however, and were never out of it until the final seconds. It was the last game for seniors Beasing, Boswell, Brown, Harris, McGuire, and Otto. The final record: 15 victories against 4 defeats.

DAVID WITTROCK — Junior, Guard. Dave is beginning to get some size and will be hard to handle next year. GARY KAMMERER—Junior, Center.
