We, also, brought another contestant, Keith Loebig. We answered the question correctly and we were given a chance to come back the next week. This time we were trying for the 364.00 question which was our second grade.

This time Susanna Benning accompanied us as our expert, We, also, got help from Naoma Frisbee, William and Robert Kirshbaum but they left us before the question got too tough. Ann Hansen and Kay weren't with us to start the question, We succeeded in answering this question and we were given the opportunity to return for the fifth week or the fourth grade. We got through this question too with the added help of Kay Whitney, Craig Lamp, Mary Ann Evans, William Kist and Alvin Weaver. Dorothy Oudekerk wasn't able to start with us and Janice Oppedahl and Jack Rapp left before we could complete the question, Our expert was Eldora Christianson. Of course, we came back the next week for the 35512.00 question. Were we acquired the help of Francis Klesel, Marcia Tice, Darlene Schoonmaker, Lloyd Alden, Robert Waugh, Jack Rapp, and Gaylon Roberts. William Kist and Alvin Weaver left before the question was over. Dorothy Field came along as our expert. Now we're really advancing into big money--31000.00 The questions are getting tougher and our expert this time was Mr. Tompkins. And do you know what? We made it with the added help of Eldon Gjerde, Karen Goll, Cathy Hard, Carolyn Hoeft, Bob Kral, Dorothy Oukekerk, John Smith, and Lloyd Nedved. We lost Robert Waugh and Edwin Hrubes, Wowl 32000.00 Mrs. Greiman came with us this time. We gained five new contestants- Doris Peterson, Roberta Haan, Lona Toland, Thomas Hutchins, and Mike Pazourp and lost four contestants before the question was through. These were: Roberta Haan, James Millard, Lona Toland and Doris Peterson, Jerry Revland and David Byers came in time to help us answer the question. We're getting smarterg we answered the question. We came prepared the following week with our usual attendance plus Susan Haberkamp, Edwin Hrubes, Betty Legreid, and Gary Kramer. Roger Fread, Darlene Schoonmaker and Janice Oppedahl left us. We won 34000.00 which means we've reached our second plateau. Miss Handfelt was our expert. ' Since we were ready to start the 358000.00 question, we were asked to enter the isolation booth--our high school career. Entering the booth with us were some newcomers: Philip Boehnke, Gary Formanek, Ron Formanek, Sandra Hollatz, Marge Hejlik, Roberta Haan, Barbara Hughes, Wayne Meyer, Darlene Rayhons, Teresa Rayhons, EmilySmidt, Carol Tlach, Sharon Watson, Vince Buzicky, Jer ry Zrostlik, Art Gethman, Beulak Matz, and Elaine Reichardt. Not appearing with us were Betty Legreid, Lloyd Alden, Arvilla Hughes, Gary Kramer, Francis Klesel, Jack Rapp and Robert Waugh. Reaching 316,000.00 meant we had a lot of studying to do this week. We received the added help of Dorothy Oudekerk and halfway through--Larry Johnson. But we lost three assets: Art Gethman, Don Moffat, and Elaine Reichardt. We're getting excited because we're almost to the end. This was a very difficult question and Jim Martindale and Larry Cummins volunteered tohelp us out. However, Mike Becker, Vince Buzicky, Mickey Pazour, Jerry Zrostlik, and Dorothy Streyle left us. We succeeded in winning for the eleventh time. This is the final week and as the question draws nearer we are very excited, nervous, and happy. Bette Ann Arnold and Beulah Matz could not be with us, but we did acquire a new contestant, Elmer Reicherts. We've answered our final question and have been awarded 364,000.00--our Diplomas. We know our diplomas are worth much more than 364,000,005 and that we couldn't have been awarded them without the help of our experts-our teachers, We'll use the education we've acquired to be achallenge for tomorrow.
