LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT We, the graduating class of 1959, consisting of intelligent and responsible persons in a garrulous mood, are hereby gathered together to compose this written document. We ask that the beneficiaries receive their prized gifts in as sound and firm a mind as that which they are given. In this manner do we dispose of our possessions. Article I: I, Phyllis Arnberger, will my initiative to George Johnson, a young man with a definite deficiency. I also leave my hook-shots to all future basketball players. Article ll: I, Joanne Bye, will my hungry stomach to all my attentive listeners. I also will my gum-snapping ability to those who desire a guaranteed method of driving teachers crazy. Article III: I, Laminda Austin, will my ability to find a man to Darlyne Swenson. who is cur- rently trying to run one down. Article IV I, Roger Bye, will six feet of my six feet four inches height to Melvin Aaserude, who seems to have stopped growing, my sense of humor to the world's greatest pessimist, Bruce Dickson, and my money making schemes to all those now going through the throes of bankruptcy. Article V: I, Sharon Dickson, will my calm, cool, and collected nature to Donny Amundson, who is continually being shook-up by the teachers. I also will my short hair cut to all girls who find it necessary to wear hardware to school. Article VI: I, Vicki Garland, will my excuses for getting out of school to Oris Gilbertson, who is compiling a book entitled, Alibis For All Occasions. Article VII: I, Arson Allen Hobbs, will my box of matches to anyone who shows signs of de- veloping the finer arts of the profession. I-lint: With this background one can also become proficient in flooding teachers' homes. Article VIII: I, Conrad Murach, will my nerve wracking laugh to anyone who wants to drive his enemies crazy. I also will my desk to anyone who will remember and appreciate the romantic history connected with it. Article IX: I, Virginia Oppegard, will my slim figure and quiet ways to Barbie Dickson, who is in dire needs of both of these characteristics. Article X: I, Joy Korynta, will my ability to go without dinner to Carol Sime, who never misses a meal. I also will my artistic and singing qualities to all those less cultured than I. Article XI: I, Tom Stead, will my study habits to anyone who can go through school without cracking a book. Warning! It's the easiest but possibly not the most re- Warding. Article XII: I, John Svoboda, will my truck driving ability to Melvin Aaserude, whose main obstacles when behind the wheel are the depressions on each side of the road and my carefulness to the wonder boy, Pogo Kvamme, the daredevil of pick-up circles. Article XIII: We, the Senior Class of 1959, leave to the students peace, quiet, and a deep sense of tranquility to prevail throughout these portals of learning. We also leave to the teachers our always perfect attendance records and the mem- ories of our looks of sheer intelligence. 2
