CLASS WILL We the most dignified, almighty, and most reverent Seniors, Class of '53 Jordan, Montana, United States of America do hereby manufacture, publish, and declare this to be our last will and testament: To the Juniors we will our place as dignified Seniors in G. C. H. S. We sincerely hope they can be as quiet and dignified as we have been. To the Sophomores we will our love of school and excuses to get out of classes (they will need them to graduate). To the Freshmen (who need the most) we will our patience and endurance in hopes that they will use it to graduate. To the faculty we leave our thanks and good will (no grey hairs, we hope). We as individuals here by will: I, Joe Twitchell, will my place at the table in the dorm to Curtis McWil- liams who needs a permanent place. I, Allen Barnes, will my nick name Baldy to Mr. Jacobson and hope he appreciates it as much as I do. I, Jim Barnes, will my ability to get along with women to Buddy Toble who seems to be failing. I, Larry Engdahl, will my pickup to anyone who thinks they are smart enough to keep it running as I have in the past year. I, Ardella Ady, will the grades on my report card to anyone who thinks they have nerve enough to take them home. I, Raymond Clauson, will my strong and muscular body to Baan Dee Wille so he may fight his way through high school as I have. I, Carol Curtis, will my freckles to Ruth Rath so she can have a tan. I, Darlene Curtis, will my ability to argue my way out of trouble with the teachers to Dean McWilliams who doesn't seem to be having very good luck. I, Marilyn Hayhurst, will my blonde hair and blue eyes to Jerry Coldwell. I, Art Gallinger, will my shortness to Irene Schmidt but it looks like it's kind of late. I, Charles Wilson, will my brains to anyone that will take the trouble to scrape them off the G. C. H. S. walls where they have slowly splattered for the past four years. I, Mary Ann Sturtz, will my attendance record to anyone who thinks they can resist the temptation of playing hookey for as long as I have. I, Selma Swanson, will my nickname Smiley to Twila Schwindtwho could use a few smiles. I, Richard Leauschen, will my sunny nature to Mr. Hopper who can cer- tainly use it at times. (Journalism) I, Charles Pagburn, will nothing as I'm having a hard time getting by now. I, Arlys Engdahl, will my slenderness to Margie Foster so she won't have to watch her diet quite so close. I, Helen Watson, will anything I have to anyone who thinks they can get some good out of it. I, David Gibbs, will my ability to pick up paper to anyone caught throwing erasers during second period study hall. 12

CLASS PROPHECY It is now the year of 1973. We find the Senior Class of 1953 holding their annual reunion on the corner by the Hell Creek Bar. The meeting was called to order by a slightly grey, distinguished looking, man who we recognized as Jim Barnes. He tells us that he is married, has twelve sons and is the governor of Montana. After inquiring around find that the rest of the class of 53 seemed to be do- ing pretty well for themselves. Charles Pangburn tells us that he is captain of the All American Basketball team and is now practicing for the World Championship trophy. Darlene Curtis could not attend the reunion because she is president of the Art Teachers Organization which is holding a convention in New York City. Marilyn Hayhurst and Helen Watson just returned from a safari in Africa and are still on a man hunt. Dr. Selma Swanson is the head doctor of the largest Veterans' Hospital in the United States. James Alexander is now president of a fish hatchery in Alaska and has quite a bit of trouble when it comes to women and business. Mary Ann Sturtz sent a telegram telling us that she is the owner of Sturtz Inc., the largest movie chain in the United States. Richard Leuschen informed us that he is an important peanut vender in the Bronx Zoo in New York City. Raymond Clauson, Carol Curtis, and Arthur Gallinger all arrived together from New York where Arthur is a big play producer. His latest production is The Jordan Story , which was written by the well-known playwright, Raymond Clauson and stars the Academy Award Winner Carol Curtis. Arlys Engdahl is editor of the World Times , the world famous newspaper that has more news, gossip, and distribution than anyother paper in the world. Joe Twitchell owns a 100,000, acre spread and is raising horses for dog mcdi. . All we have to do to see David Gibbs is walk around the corner and into the Hell Creek Bar where he is chief bartender. Allen Barnes tells us he is now raising tobacco in North Carolina and is fast becoming a multimillionaire. The most shocking news of all was to find Ardella Ady and Larry Engdahl married. They are working for The Tatum-Seaboard circus as The Bearded Lady and the Mad Montana Monster Wrestler . After drinking champagne, telling tales of their High School Days and paint- ing the town red , they bid each other a fond adieu and went merrily back to their pursuits. Ardella Ady H
