They were: Billy Cole, Donald Dirks, Delbert Guinn, David Hammond, ltalo Magnani, Sari Mae Robertson, Marilyn Seibert, Bobby Sloan, Gene Tasler, Verna Wipperman, Robert Wright, and Lowell Meier. We started under the supervision of Mrs. lvah Butler. The next fall, we found nine in the second grade. They were: Billy Cole, David Hammond, Paul LaFee, Lowell Meier, Sammie Price, Marilyn Seibert, Verna Wipperman, Robert Wright, and Marlene Sels. Mrs. Butler was still our teacher. In the third grade we were joined by Margaret Halstead, Ronald Hart, Beverly Wiles and Roy Smotherman to make a total of thirteen. Miss Seibert was our teacher Miss Seibert had to struggle with an even dozen in the fourth grade. There were Margaret Halstead, David Hammond, Ralph Patterson, Sammie Price, Betty Lou Ri.fe, Marilyn Seibert, Gary Lee Wallace, Beverly Wiles, Verna Wipperman, Robert Wright Anna Jean Kennedy, and Betty Taylor. In the fifth grade, we lost Margaret Halstead, Gary Lee Wallace, Anna Jean Kennedy, and Betty Taylor, but were joined by Bobby Sloan. Miss Maxwell was our teacher. In the sixth grade, we lost Ralph Patterson and gained Richard Mclntosh and Louise Olinger to make a total of ten. We ascended the stairs to the seventh grade with nine members. They were David Hammond, Sammie Price, Marilyn Seibert, Beverly Wiles, Verna Wipperman, Robert Wright, Marie Benshoff, Berle Conley, and Phylliss Mendenhall. We lost Marie Benshoff, Berle Conley, and Phylliss Mendenhall in the eighth grade but were joined by Martin Lint. This made a total of seven members. We entered High School with a small class of six. They were David Hammond, Martin Lint, Marilyn Seibert, Beverly Wiles, Verna Wipperman, and Robert Wright. Starting our Sophomore year, we were joined by Ethel Bonjour. In our Junior year, we lost Ethel Bonjour and were joined by Betty Plumb. Marilyn Seibert, Robert Wright, Verna Wipperman, and David Hammond are the only four of this graduating class that have gone the entire twelve years together. L W ll Class Prophecy ' Ten years later, 1961: Millionaire Bob Wright has just retired from his Canning Factory at Altoona, and has decided to take a trip to check up on his classmates of 1951. Bob boards his private plane for the Mason Air Field in New York, but as Bob's plane runs low on gas, he stops at an air field in Buffalo, New York, to refuel and have his plane checked. Bob was very surprised to see the mechanic was Marty Lint. Marty took advantage of his desire to work on his car when he was a Senior and be- came a mechanic. He asks Bob to go to his home and meet his family and have dinner with them. Marty lives in a nice home on Capital Avenue, with his wife and three children. After Bob has visited Marty he again leaves for the Air Field. When he arrives, he is tired and decides he wants some pleasure. As he is going downtown in a taxi, what should he see on a billboard but Famous Skater, Beverly Wiles, Queen of the Derby. She won her race and Bob goes backstage to congratulate her. Later Bob and Beverly go out to dinner and have a long chat about old school days. Beverly is married and has twins fa boy and a girl, who also are becoming skaters. The family lives in New York in the summer and California in the winter. After several hours with Beverly, Bob goes to the hotel for a long night's rest. Rising early the next morning he goes downtown to buy a few gifts for his wife and two sons. After going to several stores he goes to a Sporting Goods Store, and who should he find behind the counter but Betty Plumb. He asks her how she happens to be in New York and she tells him she was transferred from Hopkins in Des Moines. She has been married eight years and they have no children. After buying his gifts and discussing old times he is again on his way. h Bob boards his plane for Florida, where he finds David Hammond as the leader of a swing band, formerly lead by Harry James. We remember David as being a good musi- cian in high school. David is married and his wife sings with his band in the evening. During the day she is busy taking care of David, Jr., and at night the maid takes care of him. Bob enjoyed David's entertainment for several hours and then again was on his way. With a good night's sleep and a good breakfast Bob leaves for Chicago to see an old friend of his who owns the Marshall Field Company. He goes to his friend's office and at the receptionist's desk was the familiar face of Verna Wipperman. Verna went to a sec- retarial college and has become a very efficient receptionist and secretary. She has since been married and has two children. ,Having enjoyed Chicago so much on the Senior Skip Day of 5l, she decided to make her home there. Marshall Fields was having its ban- quet that night and Bob was asked to join them. Verna and Bob caught up on all the news of happenings since they graduated. Bob has found all of his classmates but one and he has no idea where to look for her. He has not heard where Marilyn Seibert has gone since she graduated. After giving it much thought he decides there is nothing to do but go back home. He again boards his plane, but on his way home his plane crashes and he is rushed to the hospital at Iowa City. When he regains consciousness he discovers his nurse as none other than his lost classmate, Marilyn Seibert. Immediately after Marilyn finished high school she went to college, and she is now the head nurse at Iowa City Hospital. She is married and has two little patients. Bob was in the hospital for a week with minor bruises but when he was dismissed he went home satisfied with the fact that he had found all his classmates. 12 Class Will We, the class of Sl, having reached the end of our career here, being sound in health, mind, and memory, do make, publish, and declare this writing to be our last will and testament. 1.

At our first class meeting, we elected Patricia O'Donnell as Presi- dent: Herbert Wilson, Vice-President: Donald Kallem, Secretary, and Daniel Beauchamp, ' Treasurer. Mr. Smith was chosen as class sponsor. U The Juniors decided to sponsor a square dance as a kick off for the school year. On September 8th, we invited the whole high school in, and the assembly was cleared. Every- one drank a lot of punch and ate too many cookies, but they agreed that they had had a good time. Football season opened with five of our class on the squad: Donald Collins, Donald Kallem, Daniel Beauchamp, Herbert Wilson, and Sammie Price. Herbert Wilson was in- jured in the game with Prairie City and didn't get to play the rest of the season. Always interested in athletics, our boys and girls were well represented on the basketball teams. ln our last basketball game of the season, Donald Collins suffered a broken nose. When baseball practice began, most of the boys reported for that. Many pleasant hours were spent in planning our Junior-Senior Banquet. Our theme, The Mardi Gras provided opportunity for colorful decorations and favors which we made At the end of the year, we had a class party and decided that our Junior year had in- deed been a memorable one.

Our class sponsor is Mrs. Johnson. At our first class meeting, officers were elected: President, Joann Bohrofen: Vice-President, Willie Weiser: Secretary, Beverly Peterson: Treasurer, Joyce Weiser. Peeking into the classrooms we find the Sophomores studying Geometry, English, World History, the girls, Home Economics: the boys, Manual Training.

FRONT ROW: Melvin Wiles, Marilyn Bohrofen, Ruth Kinsey, Sylvia Pinegar, and Lloyd Peitzman. On August 28, 1950, eleven Freshmen enrolled in Grimes High School. We graduated from eighth grade with no addition to our group. We found four subjects waiting for us, Algebra, English, Manual Training, and Home Economics. Soon after school began, we elected class officers: Larry Seibert, President: Jerold Plumb, Vice-President: Lloyd Peitzman, Secretary and Treasurer. I One dreadful day, we Freshmen were called together by the upperclassmen, namely, the Seniors. We received slips of paper and we knew that Freshman Initiation was at hand. We obeyed orders and paraded through the grade rooms. The evening party was enjoyed by everyone, even we Freshmen, who had to clean up, were happy to know that we now were full fledged high school students and need fear no upperclas smen. We have distinguished ourselves in thekvarious high school activities. David Wiese, Ronald Hays, Lloyd Peitzman, and Marilyn Bohrofen were members of the band, David Wiese and Marilyn Bohrofen taking part in the swing band. We also featured in homecoming as our float rated second and we felt it an honor to have Ruth Kinsey chosen as an attendant. Our class almost entirely turned out for Athletics, the boys doing good work in football, basketball and baseball, and Ruth Kinsey played on the first team in basketball. And last, but not least, we did our bit in contributing to the social life of the school by sponsoring a square dance in February. Refreshments were punch and cookies. We feel that we have completed a very successful year under the guidance of our sponsor, Mrs. Schlueter.

The Freshmen who reported were Marilyn Bohrofen, Ruth Kinsey, and Sylvia Pinegar. The Grimes girls' record to date is 6 wins against eleven losses. Though losing several games the girls made a fine showing for themselves. Most of the games lost were by close scores, two being by one point. One of the most exciting games of the year was a thriller won from Johnston, 62 to 55. The sharp shooting of Grimes forwards Seibert, Bauman, and Kinsey accounted for the win in the last few minutes of play. Another thriller was the game with Bayard in which the girls lost 55 to 54. In the county tournament the girls won the first game from Elkhart, 48 to 45, and lost to Alleman in the second round by four points. In the sectional tournament at West Des Moines, the girls were beaten by Johnston. Though not having a winning season the girls made up for the lack of points by an abundance of spirit and hard play. Most of the scoring of the season was distributed among the three regular forwards, Marilyn Seibert, 390 points: Anna Mae Bauman, 297 points: and Ann Kinsey, Q1 points. 1 -1 GAMES V OPPONENTS SCORE GRINIES SC ORE Waukee 3 8 2 9 Bayard 55 54 Polk City 2 3 4 8 Urbandale 84 75 Alleman 52 4 8 Elkhart 45 4 8 Granger 53 43 Polk City 32 69 Granger 57 4 8 W aukee 5 6 3 8 B ondurant 49 3 6 Johnston 55 62 B ondurant 4 8 60 Elkhart 66 55 Johnston 74 73 W oodside 3 0 4 7 Johnston 67 49 Mitchelville 71 50 28 FIRST ROW: Left to Right: Anne Kinsey, Marilyn Seibert, Anna Mae Bauman.

Seventeen boys were out for the season. They included three Seniors, Dave Hammond, Robert Wright, and Marty Lint. The Juniors were Donald Collins, Sam Price, Donald Kallem, and Dan Beauchamp. Three Sophomores reported, Dale Johnson, Bob Slauson, and Will V' ziser. The Freshmen had the largest representation on the squad. They were James Biddle, Larry Seibert, Melvin Wiles, David Wiese, Roger Bloomfield, Ronald Hays, and Lloyd Peitzman. The boys to date have a record of 7 wins and 12 defeats. Many of the games were close, four were overtime games and one a double overtime. One of the highlights of the year was the mid-season game with Urbandale. Although trailing by 15 points in the third quarter the Grimes boys knotted the score at the end of the regular playing time and went on to win in the overtime. Another thriller came in the county tournament against Johnson, the boys won this game in an overtime. The Grimes victories were due mainly to the sharp shooting of Don Kallem KFI, Don Collins QGQ, Sam Price IGI and Will Weiser QFD. Particularly outstanding for their defen- sive play were Sam Price and Don Collins, the two regular guards. The scoring for the season was fairly evenly distributed throughout the team. Don Kallem collected 170 points, Don Collins, 160 points: Sam Price, 154 points: Will Weiser, 117 points, Bob Wright, 79 points: Marty Lint, 47 points: Don Beauchamp, 32 points: Dave Hammond, 13 points: Bob Slauson and Larry Seibert each got 2 points.

The Sophomores were Dale Johnson, Will Weiser, and Bob Slauson. Five Freshmen reported. They were Larry Seibert, Melvin Wiles, Roger Bloomfield, David Wiese, and James Biddle. On September 15th, we journeyed to Bondurant for our first game of the year. Grimes won by a score of 27 to 0. Dave Hammond, Sam Price, Don Kallem, and Dan Beauchamp each scored a touchdown. Kallem kicked successfully for two extra points and Weiser tallied theother point on a pass from Kallem. On September 22nd, we faced a powerful Woodside squad Qranked number Z in the state, on the home field. Woodside won 32 to 0. In spite of the loss, the Grimes boys fought a good hard game. - Our second win of the season came in the game with Elkart at Grimes on September 26th. The score was 30 to 6 with Don Kallem scoring 3 touchdowns and Sam Price col- lecting another for Grimes. A feature of the game was the fine blocking and tackling dis- played by the Grimes linemen. Mitchelville came to Grimes on September 29th and the Grimes Wildcats racked up their 3rd victory, 25 to 6. Hammond scored two touchdowns, Price and Lint one each. Beauchamp caught a pass for the other point. On October 6th, we traveled to Mingo only to be beaten by a highly rated Mingo Club by the score of 49 to 6. Dave Hammond scored the lone tally for Grimes. October 9th was homecoming and our opponents were our old friends from Urbandale This was one of the most exciting games of the year. A supposingly superior Urbandale Club was battled to a 20 to Z0 tie by the Grimes Club. Dave Hammond, Marty Lint, and Sam Price each scored a touchdown for Grimes. Kallem booted for 2 points after the touchdown. Our next opponent was Prairie City on October 12th. The Grimes boys, tired from a heavy schedule, lost the game to a mediocre Prairie City Club by a score of 26 to 45. Lint, Kallem, Price, and Slauson each scored a touchdown. Two points were scored on a touchback due to a tackle by Sam Price. Runnells was our foe on October 19th. .'he well manned Runnells Club defeated our boys by a 49 to 0 score. We played Elkhart again on the 23 of October at Elkhart. Grimes won by a score of 42 to 12. A feature of the game was Melvin Wiles scoring a point after the touchdown. Price collected 3 touchdowns, Kallem 2, and Lint 1. Beauchamp scored 1 point after a touchdown and Kallem kicked two for 4 points. On October 26th, we played Urbandale again at Urbandale. After a brilliant first half, Grimes sagged and Urbandale won 26 to 14.

The Willowmere Inn has a reputation of harboring a ghost who walks at midnight. Storm bound at the Inn the day of our play, several young people set out to solve the mys- tery and what a night of it they do have. A wailing shriek terrifies the maid and everyone else, and as they recover from that a white hand tosses a warning message in the window. When this failed to frighten them away, the ghost, who is very persistant, makes a personal appearance. The villian is the last person you'd suspect--but then, that's the way with all mys- tery plots. All's well that ends well, however, and everyone including the ghosts have a good time at The Haunted Inn.

Rosamond, Dixie, and Anne, three college girls, open a tea room with the idea of making easy money for their college endowment fund. They rent a handsome old country home from Dallas Thorne, a wealthy young man who is supposed to be abroad, but suddenly returns to find his exclusive mansion turned into a Tea Toper Tavern. The girls mistake him for the new hired man they have been expecting, and he, in a spirit of adventure, conceals his identity and accepts the job. The tea room venture seems hoo-dooed. One crisis follows another. A costume ball is planned for recreation and this is instrumental in bringing to a head the various romances which had developed. Dallas Thorne finds the girl of his dreams in Dixie and all ends happily. 38 Skip Day On March 6th, the Senior Class left for Chicago for their Skip Day. After stopping several times to fill the cars with gas and eat, a tired group of Seniors arrived at the Stephens Hotel, where we stayed. We first visited the Industrial Arts Building, where there is an old coal mine, many old cars and steam engines, etc. Later we went down Skid Row, where we are all sure we would not care to live. Also we visited China Town, where we purchased a few souvenirs. Next we went to the Planetarium, which is designed to show the relative positions of over 4,500 planets, planetoids, and stars. At the Brookfield Zoo, we found gullies, hills, rock piles, and wooded stretches have been made to secure natural habitats for the groups of birds, reptiles, amphibians, and other animals there. The girls who wanted to visit Marshall Field's Co., insisted the boys go with them, but the boys did not particularly enjoy the shopping trip. At the Don McNeill Breakfast Club, we watched the broadcast and joined in the march around the breakfast table. The most thrilling of all was the Roller Derby, which everyone enjoyed very much. Leaving for home, we all felt we had had the time of our lives and had spent five days in the best possible way. Can You Imagine ? Sam P. typing 50 words per minute.

We started from Grimes and were very excited as we reached the Commodore Hotel. The theme of our ban- quet was the Mardi Gras. Donald Kallem and Anne Kinsey were on hand as host and hostess. Ronald Baer served as toastmaster and seemed to keep everyone in good spirits. For the musi- cal background we had Mr. Bowman play his violin, Mrs. Bote sing a solo, and Betty Shepherd and Ronald Baer sing a duet. Memory booklets decorated with the Mardi Gras scene, listed the class mem- bers, faculty, program, and menu. Black half masks for everyone with their name on it were given as favors.
