They soon decided that this going to school stuff was Just one big circus, so with Miss Stern as their ring-master they began to organize. LaVerne Krieger, being the most outstanding wolf, became barker. Frances Rapp, Harry Bolton, _ Billy Beck, and Mary Ellen Kootz became clowns. Ellis McConnohle wa¬ tered the elephants. Brenda Burgess and Miriam Bates stood around and watched Ellis, but Ana Pike, with her outstanding athletic ability, started training to be a trapese artist. (Because her legs look so well In tights?) In the first grade Roberta Densmore took us In hand, and in more ways than one. Several of us can still feel the imprint of her hand laid smartly where the good Lord constructed us with ounlshment in mind. Could LaVerne and Ellis help it if they were too busy being nice to Brenda and Miriam to hear the bell? New this year were Gertrude Lockwood (undoubtedly our fat lady), Charlotte Wagner, Bud Franz, and Theo Davis, our midget. Charlotte thought up a swell act where she could throw knives at Miriam. Brenda threw a wild oarty and LaVerne laughed so hard he split his trousers up the back. To begin our second grade we moved into the new building and pro¬ ceeded to do our best to wreck it . New performers were Lewis Preston, Bob Perkins, Winifred Gregg and Beverly Bush. Bev made a wonderful fortune teller. We held our first perfbrmance this year. What a per¬ formance! Were we good? Frankly—not very! (Isn ' t it queer that Miss Ripley tore the answer sheet out of our math pads? We were always 6uch an honest class!) Miss Anderson was our ringmaster In the third grade. New perfor¬ mers were Jacqueline Fraley, Ruth Ann Rice, Don Srachengast, Ardis Ras¬ mussen, and Donna Guthrie. Donna and Brenda soon became lnseperable (they even liked the same men ), so we naturally came to regard them as Siameze Twins. This year we decided that we were big enough to stop eating chunks of tar which we found near the road. Taated swell though. Mlss Snow took over as our fourth grade director. During the year we gained Pat Cartwright, snake charmer, Delores Campbelle, and Bob Wermouth. Don 9. had a crush on Miss Anderson so he stayed in the third grade to admire her beautiful blonde hair. In the fifth grade we gained Wayne Olmstead and Emily Gillespie, and lost Jacqueline Frailey. Miss Brown tried her hand at making angels of us by the Gold Book system. (Joke)—Several of us earned our wings. Miss Currier let us listen to the World Series the year we were In the sixth grade. Did we feel big! Even the high school didn ' t get to listen. Joyce Sanford and Minnie Dowling came new this year. Remem¬ ber the times we sat In the hall because we were naughty? I guess Wayne and Pat C. couldn ' t take it, because they left us. Mrs. LaPlne, our seventh grade ringmaster, also had definite ideas of punishment. Her favorite was to nut the culprit in the corner and make him stand on one block of tile for half an hour. We used to stand up there and make faces at the class when the teacher ' s back was turned. Weren ' t we devils? We had an Ink Spot Authors ' Club this year. We had no literary genius, but we had a lot of fun pretending that we did. Newcomers this year were Joanne Thomas, Alice Elliot, Ed Lis- kovec, and Gordon Haas. Ed Joined us as the wild man from Borneo, and I ' m sure that anyone who has heard him laugh can readily understand. Joanne ' s later performance in debate assured us that we made no mistake in labeling Joanne as our fire-eater. Pat Cartwright couldn ' t stand it to be without us, so in the eighth grade she unexpectedly rejoined us, along with Vera Lowe, our second fortune teller, and Bob Christler. Harry Bolton, Theo Davis, Joyce Sanford, and Bob Wermouth did not start back with us. Lewis ■■ ■■■■■■Hi u£ZZZ Mjg.Jt.Jf. ' JLMJZJL, JTJiJ ✓ Preston and iot left us during the year. Mr. Beardsley was our first man teacher and we made the most of our opportunities. It was amazing, the number of girls who began staying after school to check oapers and tidy up the room. Perhaps It was explained by the fact that he took them home afterward. I guess we failed though, because he Joined the Navy and got a Job showing Waves around New York at the end of the year. At the beginning of the freshman year, our role stood as follows: Miriam Bates, Maxine Book, Madeline Bresson, Brenda Burgess, Beverly Bush, Pat Cartwright, Robert Chrlstler, David Franz, Emily Gillespie, Donna Guthrie, Duane Haney, Norma Hughes, Helen Kramer, LaVerne Krleger, Ed Llskovec, Gertrude Lockwood, Vera Lowe, Ellis McConnohle, A1 and Bob Nelson, Robert Perkins, Ana Pike, Barb Preston, Prances Rapp, Ardls Ras¬ mussen, Joanne Thomas, Matle Vise, and Charlotte Wagner. Barb became our bearded lady (none of the boys even had peach fun). Norma was starred In a side show as Dangerous, Dark, and-Bolng! Mr. Good¬ rich was our advisor. We were so sweet that he decided to get married before the year was over and raise several of his own. We fooled him! Walter Gorsllne took over as sophomore advisor. Bob and A1 Nelson, Madeline, Helen, Matle, and Ardls left us. George Carson and Russell Allen Joined us for a short time each. Pedro left because he couldn ' t keep awake long enough to stagger from class to class. Russell gave Ana the old rush and gave us all a Juicy pelce of gossip to chew for a while. Oh—not that we gossip! Peggy Worst came as our bareback rider. Whe was always riding a hobby—usually men . We broke the era of 17 record dances by sponsoring a counle of danoes featuring Red McConnohle and His Swlngsters . They maybe weren ' t so good, but they ware sure enough noisy. And we mustn ' t forget Fred Guldemond who left the frus¬ trated freshmen flat to become our India Rubber Man. Under Miss Wllllts our Junior year we put on our first really suc¬ cessful performance In the form of a play. We were lucky enough to get Felld Day Concessions, the result being a lot of fun and a big pro¬ fit. Needless to say, we liked both. We held the banquet here. We didn ' t mind the work—--our mothers did It. Bob Crlstler and Bud Franz took extra subjects and graduated a year ahead of us. Show-offs! Jim Wiley was a minister ' s son, and during the year he spent with us we were all deeply impressed by his quiet, benevolent manner. Then came the moment suoreme. We were seniors! Our troup of per¬ formers Is reaching the cllmas. We must advertise! So Into our midst we took that talented young commercial artist, Doris Herrington, who left after a short stay. Pat Wenger also Joined us for a while, but Mr. Plummer, advisor, wore her down with prattle about school work, so she left. The armed service saw the practically manless condition of our class and gave us Jim Walker, strong man and bouncer, Jim Harley, sword swallower, Irwin Campbelle, malnfealnance man, and Bob Llskovec, who came as a quieting Influence on his wild brother Ed. Consequently, at this point we have In our class Miriam Bates, Brenda Burgess, Donna Guthrie, Joanne Thomas, Pat Cartwright, Charlotte Wagner, Norma Hughes, Barbara Preston, Peggy Worst, Vera Lowe, Gertrude Lockwood, Beverly Bush, Ana Pike, Jim Walker, Fred Guldemond, Jim Harley, Ellis McConnohle, LaVerne Krleger, Bob Llsdovec, Ed Llskovec, and Irvin Campbelle. We found that senior plays can be as much fun as Junior plays and that the Juniors can give a prom and banquet almost as good as ours. We began to see how much we have enjoyed performing together and taking trips together and worrying about exams together and doing all the things that make us want to stay. But the time has come when the troup must part and each performer make his own way In the wicked world, so to Galesburg High-Goodbye-and thanks! t u A i V C L 3 S ii 1 L L of ' 4 7 Miriam Bates wills ana bequeaths her chemistry ability to Bonnie Malikowski—Carry on the good work Bonnie l Joanne Thomas wills her scholastic ability to i.endel Tolies-- You ' re getting it whether you want it or not, wendyl Ellis McConnohie leaves his way with the gals to Don Srackangast—Use it with care Don l Ed Liskovec wills and bequeaths his wolfish ways to Emil Doerfer--See what you can qo with it Emil l Gertruae Lockwood wills and bequeaths her ambition to Pooch Towne—Think you ' ll know what to do with it Towney?

Ip A W s r d w f d J zr d r r r CLASS PROPHECY OP 191+7 Tti© lights were lowered, the music swelled, the curtains parted and the show began. We had front row seats and were Just settling down to enjoy ourselves when we glanced across the aisle, and who should we see but Miriam Bates and Joanne Thomas. Prom our brief conversation we learned that Miriam had designed all the posters for the show Fighting Oaels . Joanne of course was here because McConnohies Sophisticated Kings of Swing were furnishing all music. Red certainly has come a long way from Don ' s Deacon ' s. Upon consulting our programs we learned that Jim Harley was the stage manager and that Gertrude Lockwood our Galesburg Einstein had written the play. As the story unfolded we found that Jim Walker was playing the part of a Marine Sergeant and very realistically too, we might add. During intermission we went out into the lobby and ran in to Mr. Mrs. Richard Brockway and Mr. Mrs. Robert Glazier the former Brenda Burgess and Donna Guthrie both of them now very prominent social matrons here in Chicago. Back to the show and afterwards off for eats and entertainment. A taxi was hailed for us by Bob Perkins the doorman. Very proud of his wife Jeanne, five children and his gold spangled uniform. We piled into the taxi in which the meter was already running, when we started to debate the reason for this with the driver we found he was LaVerne Krieger, always out after the almighty dollar. Pour years of college at Western certainly didn ' t prepare him for traffic Jams in a large city. Of course as usual he was speeding, so soon a booming voice hailed us and we found ourselves face to face with Officer Ed Liskovec, custodian of the law. We chatted a while with him then he gave us a ticket and we went on our way. We instructed LaVerne to take us to the new night club Just opened, the Club Siboney. We arrived and entered the plush interior, handed our wraps to the hat check girl, who was none other than our old school chum Norma Hughes, now Mrs. David Franz. She informed us that Bud was upstairs operating the roulette wheel, always the dark sauve type. We move on into the darkened interior and are led to our seats by the head waiter. We spot two cigaret girls across the room that look strangely familiar, we beckon to them and as they approach we recognize Barbara Preston and Peggy Worst. We had a long conversation and learned that they are now happily married to Don Brown and Paul Carpenter respectively. Don and Paul by the way are co-owners of the Club. Our stomaches started complaining for food so we decided to move on for eats. We hailed a taxi and instructed our driver to drive us to the Cockatoo which we had heard was a very popular restaurant in town. Upon entering we were led to our table by Pat Cartwright the hostess, she informed us that the milk was delivered every morning by Ken Carpenter whose Dodge she still drives to work. She also told us that the Cockatoo was owned by Vera Lowe and Hna Pike, also member of our graduating class. Ttie next morning bright and early we leave by plane for the Journey home. The stewardess checks off our names as we mount the steps into the plane and we are surprised to note that it is our old school mate Beverly Bush. She informs us that we are in the capable hands of Charlotte Wagner, now an experienced pilot for U. C. A. We learned that one of our company had just been elected Out of Town Queen for a Day and the orchid presented her was a new species of orchid perfected by Fred Guldemond and Bob Liskovec who had opened up a Florist shop in New York. We reach home tired but happy and our minds full of memories of our former school days. d t Id d d d f £ r r ✓ m t A fC � H W , 1 . , v UWj A f ✓ SINFUL JUNIORS CHIEF SIN CUhE R.

But we lacked that certain somethin : that It takes to have a winning team. We scored a Jrand total of 453 points as against 576.
