Dale is next as we call off the names, It won't be long before he enters Ames Radio and television sets he craves And when he fixes our typewriters, we are amazed, Pat is the tallest of the girls to go, She goes with a fellow who is named Aldo She likes to play basketball, dance and sing And who know's what her future will bring. joy is noted for her laughter and delight, And Don will be waiting for her tonight She's active in music and loves sports, And plays and sings for activities of all sorts. it , . rf . 1 jim is the romeo of our crowd, And of being a farmer he's very proud I-Ie and school often disagree, And why he's still here beats me. Stella's Ambition is to marry Dick, Of all the men, he's her pick In our History classes she gets A, She, too, will be leaving graduation day. Our ambitious secretary is Carrie Lou We don't know for sure what she wants to do, First team guard she used to be Until the day she hurt her knee. Now, George is the shortest of the boys to go He has black hair and eyes, you know, Never says much--just looks around Mention his girl and he doesn't frown. Ginny is noted for her two-toned blond hair She and a certain drummer make quite a pair, She wants to get into commercial art That is, if she and jim decide to part. Rich is the flier of the congregation Won't be long , is his favorite expression, Dale and he are in Physics the tops He'll join the air force and make lots of hops, Rosie is the last of us to be leaving Some of his expressions are quite deceiving, If you hear him say Boy! What a frame! Don't get him wrong, it's a truck, not a dame. At last the end of this crazy poem, we had better quit and be for home. 6 DA LE PAT ,um CARRIE LOU K. at' 5 , I GEORGE 3, ui or 5 via , LIZ ,IOY ST ELLA RICH GINNY ROSIE ELILABETH BAUMAN fL.izj GEORGE BOOHER fGeorgiej '-l'm not blushing, l'm just Who ever invented work should healthy.

The Seniors pack their books in the corner and leave, period! 12 -Class Prophecy TIME: Ten years from now ---------- I-1960 Dale Schlueter sat behind the large desk on the eighteenth floor of his office. He directed an occasional .glance toward the large television screen on the opposite wall. He strummed his fingers on the polished mahogany surface and a faint smile played at the corners of his mouth. For the third time he reached for the letter on his desk and read it aloud to see if his ears would believe what his eyes had been conveying to him. Dear Dale, he started, then half to himself said, My, how nice to 'receive a letter with my own first name instead of the usual Mr. Dale Schlueter, President Arnis Television Co., Tenth and Vine, Hollywood, Los Angeles, California Then he continued with the letterg '9We've missed you these past five years at our annual class reunions but of course know you've been terribly busy in your work. I do want to congratulate you on your recent oppointment as director of National Television. I met your Mother when I was down at school last week to see Stella. She's quite a gal-: when her husband became ill, she offered to help out with the family finances by taking on this extra work. Goodness only knows how she does it with those twin boys of hers. They're six now though, and going to school to Mrs. Butler. Anyway, Dick is working again so Stella says she will have some extra cash for a vacation. Know what she dreamed up? A class reunion out west! What do you think about that? Several of the class of '50 are living in the West. Do you suppose we could manage 9 We could make it this fall when jim fSeibertl has his farming out of the way. He's really quite prominent around here since he became president of the Flying Farmer of Iowa. He has aspirations to represent the county in the next legislature. joy and her family could get away that fall, too. They've done rather well over at Dallas Center on the farm. They've just completed their new home and she's expecting---that is they plan to move'in soon, and will be settled by then. Bet she'll be glad, too, after living all this time with those three children in those two rooms. Pat lShepherdj writes from San Francisco that she's marrying again. This time it's a wealthy oil man she nursed back to health after a serious auto accident. Nothing would do but she must accompany him from the hospital to continue to care for him at his beautiful home overlooking the ocean. I know you see her occasionally but thought you might not have heard this late news. Perhaps she'll bring him to the rleunion for us to look him over. Nice thought! Did you know Rosie has a transportation company in Denver now? He makes the run from that city to Los Angeles. They say his wife likes the climate there much better and anyway she got bored with living here in a small town, especially with him hauling milk. Rich KRichard Kohlsj has just renamed the former Dodge Field , the Kohls Airport. He had rather bad5luck when the windstorm flattened the new building over there, but now everything is fine. I-le's added several new passenger planes and everyone, just everyone flies whenever they want to go anywhere. His wife and their little girl, Rheta, are spending the summer in Long Beach with her parents. Says he's going to fly out and bring them home before school starts. Maybe I can persuade him to let the rest of us ride along about reunion time. Say, I think I've really got something there! 13 Your mother told me about George being interviewed over your station . General George Booher ---- what a title. They tell me the gold braid on his shoulder has made him rather snobbish. Well now if we can get him and that movie star wife of his to condescend to join us commoners all will be fine. Always did want to meet her anyway. Ginny QVirginia Collins! Was looking rather thin when she was here this winter visiting her parents. It isn't any wonder though with those four children and trying to keep up her work, too. I do enjoy her comic strip which she draws for that syndicate. Sometimes I think she draws some of us into it, but then I never can be certain. Your Mother told me you and your wife had danced to Ginny's husband's band. Now tell me, is he really as good as she claims ? And do they really own that beautiful home out there? She' always showing pictures of it. Maybe Liz and jim QPinegarj will drive up from the valley for the reunion-- that is if their ranch hands aren't acting up again. We hear they had quite a time after they were here two years ago for a visit. Seems like the help had been having wild parties in their absence and nearly wrecked the place. Well, Dale it's time for me to do some work for the boss. And speaking of the boss--you remember his son? I've been looking at him through rose- colored glasses for some time now. But I don't need to use a magnifying glass to see the stone in the ring he gave me. It's all of twocarats and really lights up the place. Remember when the local company put those large signs up on the highway the year we graduated? Never did I ever dream I'd be a private secretary and some day marry the boss's son. They just repainted them the other day, but they still read: Grimes---the home of Beaver Valley Canning Company-H one of the largest canning companies in Iowa. The old place has really grown since then, when the census read 650. Wonder what it will be when they read it this year? Two thousand, perhaps more. And no one's prouder of this growing town than our Mayor, Lowell Fullmerl Maybe we can persuade him to forget politics. 0-Ie's considering running for governor next term., It would sure be swell if he would come to our reunion. Wouldn't that be fun! Let me know what you think, huh? .

We were sorry to lose one member of the class, Rheta Wiese, who was injured while participating in a school project. Two Sophomores, Betty Shepherd and Shirley Paulson, took part in the junior class play to help make it a success. Freshman-Sophomore class play was january 5, and all of the class took part in it or the operetta that accompanied it.

This was an unusual type of play featuring a play within a play. Though Toby and his gang enter the play contest, they expect little as Mrs. Harvey has given them a very serious melodrama. and Toby has to play the part of the grief- stricken mother because Betty Lou lisps. Of course they win the contest as Toby's tricks turn the play into a comedy and poor Mortimer's mistakes as producer of sound effects brought many laughs from the audience.
