They were met at the door by the smiling face of Miss Mabel Earp, their first teacher. Three of the fifteen who have been together through their twelve years are: Donald Schulz, Donald Formanek, and Mercedes Formanek. Another member of the group to graduate' was picked up the following spring, Delores Falada. Donald Geddes entered the class in their third year of school. During the eight years there were many different ones in the class and graduation from the eighth grade, on May 15, 194-Z found our class with three girls and three boys: Delores Falada, Mercedes Formanek, Norva Johnson, Donald Geddes, Donald Schulz, and Donald Formanek. In the fall of 1942, seven green but brave Freshman enter- ed the assembly of the high school: another member joining the group, Wanda Hanson. They did not seem too out of place as the teacher of their seventh and eighth grades accompanied them, becoming high school principal and remained with them their four years of High School. During the year the class took part in parties and other school activities. Sophomore year found us more confident than the previous year. The class found that they had an extra member, Kenneth Heller. During the year the class enjoyed parties with members of the lower class and also took part in many other activities. Acting niuch more sophisticated, as they were juniors of the Hayfield High, the class began its year's events with their Junior Class Play, Here Comes Charlie , which was directed by Miss Jennie Gerlachg and all members of the class participated. Another event to which all juniors look forward was the jr. Sr. Banquet, which was held at the Hotel Edmar in Mason City on April 28th. The following year found the seniors approaching rapidly the time of entering into the world. Another member appeared at the beginning of the year, Shirley Jensen. Many events occured during this year. Election of class officers was held as usual, the returns being: Donald Formanek, Pres.: Donald Schulz, Vice Pres.: Delores Falada, Sec.: and Donald Geddes Treas.: and Mr. Brown as sponsor. The class motto, flower and colors were selected. The Best Is None Too Good as the motto. Colors-Pea Green and Rose and the class flower, the rose. On February Zlst the seniors traveled to Mason City to have their pictures taken at Russel's Studio: they were accom- panied by Mr. Brown, the sponsor. I-Iamilton's school of Commerce was visited and the movie Bells of St. Mary's was attended. February llth they were honored by a Valentine Party given at the school house, by the junior Class. On March 25th the party was returned a spring scheme was carried out. It was held at the home of Mercedes Formanek. The class is now working on their Senior Class play The Skelton Walks directed by Miss Dorothy Missal, to be given April 24-thg and is looking forward to the very important eventsg skip day, jr.-Sr. Banquet, Baccalaureate, and Commencement. CLASS PR OPHECY All abo ard, yelled the conductor as we grabbed our bagg- age and climbed aboard the Rocket . We had just finished in M.G.M's production of 'Silver Lining' and we were leaving for New York. From there we would go to Europe by atomic airship to spend our two month vacation. With a sigh of relief we settled down in our seats. Soon an argument in the back of the car distracted us. We turned around and to our surprise we recognized Delores Falada, argu- ing with the conductor. We went back to help her out of her difficulty, but as usual Delores didn't need any help. She could still put up a good argument! She was now Mrs. Murven Anderson and singing with his band. They were to appear at the Avolon Ballroom in Hayfield, Iowa. When we arrived in Hayfield, we took a taxi to the Hotel Astoria where we were to spend the night. The next morning we decided to tour the town. As we trudged up Federal Avenue, with the wind beating against us, we noticed a very refined, young lady having the time of her life trying to hang on to her hat and a dog at the same time. As we approached her she looked vaguely familiar. We recognized her as none other than Shirley Jensen. As we exchanged greetings, Shirley invited us to have lunch with her and her husband, Don Geddes. Don was the owner of a chain of Geddes Department Stores . After having a love- ly time with Shirley and Don, we hastened to our hotel. After a short nap we decided it was time once again to leave. We called a taxi and left for Grand Central Station where we took the Zepher to New York. When we arrived, we hurried to the airport. We had to ask the manager for tickets as we didn't have reservations. When we approached the office, what should we see but DONALD G. SCHULZ MANAGER written in big, bright, gold letters. We rushed in to surprise Don. We chatted a while and Don informed us that he had inherited the airline from his great-grandfather. He was still sticking to his motto, Always be a Bachelor . Wonder how long he'l1 stick to this? We took our tickets and hurried to the air ship. Amid the jostling and pushing we finally got a seat on the atomic air ship. In the next hour we found ourselves in Great Britain. After we got settled in our hotel, We decided to see the Olympic Games that were being held in London. At the stadium we heard a voice over the microphone which we both felt we had heard before. To our amazement it was Donald Formanek, who was not a coach but the manager of the Olympic Games. After a very exciting day we finally got to Don. After a short chat We decided that fame hadn't changed Don a bit. He was still his old self. The next day We went to Paris. The first thing we noticed was a beautiful cathedral. It was so lovely that we couldn't resist the temptation to go in. As we entered the door, the sound of beautiful music overwhelmed us. On the side of a bal- cony we saw the organ that the music was coming from. And who should be seated at the organ but our old schoolmate Mercedes Formanek. Later she invited us to her home where we spent a very enjoyable day. Mercedes had surely traveled a long way on the musical road. Mercedes informed us that Kenny Heller was also living in Paris. Kenny was the professor of the University of France . ' We went to see the University the next day. As we walked down the hall we could see an irate man informing his poor students on How to Become Famous . Sure enough, it was Kenny Heller, still making speeches. Although we both admitted he had im- proved in his speech making a little since our high school days. As we proceeded on our tour we passed through the city of Kwitchabelliakin, formerly Berlin, Germany. We toured the city and visited Governor's We thought to his wife none other old hearty years now By this all the important buildings. This included the house. We were introduced to the governor, Mr. Book. the name sounded familiar and when he introduced us we knew where we had heard it before. His wife was than Wanda Hanson. Wanda greeted us with the same smile. They had been governing the city for three and we were both sure they had made a success. time our vacation had almost elapsed. We were very glad to have seen all the class of 1946 and we were sure they had all gone beyond their goal in life. 3- 4 Q x A W 1 1 1 W CLASS WILL We, the class of 194-6, being in usual sound mind and body, knowing that we are doomed to die on May 15 194-65 8:15 at Hay- field High School: Hayfield Iowa: Hancock County: Madison township leave our valuables to the most deserving, the most remaining members of Hayfield High.

The first event in our Junior year was to elect class offi- cers., The officers chosen were: Calvin Bredlow, President: Agnes Trca, Vice President: Mildred Stupka. Secretary-treasurer. Then basket ball started with three of the four boys in our class going out for it. The first big event in our junior year was our class play, Her Emergency Farnily . We gave the play October 30, 1945. It was a farce comedy of three acts with all the Juniors taking part. All the girls are in the Glee Club which is under the direction of Miss Dorthey Missal. We juniors gave the Seniors a party on February 7, 1946. The Seniors showed there appreciation by giving us a party on March 25, at the home of Mercedes Formanek. The next big event was our junior-Senior banquet which was held May 2, 1946. Two of the juniors Freddie Kadera and Agnes Trca took part in the Senior Class Play, The Skeleton Walks . SOPHOMORE CLASS In the fall of 1945 a group of 5 girls and 4 boys entered the Sophomore class for an educational purpose, to improve our ignorance About two weeks after school began the class officers were elected. They are: Elaine Fric as President, Gene Stoltenberg as Vice President and Mildred Busch as Secretary Treasurer. Two of the Sophomore class boys, Gene and Virgil took active part in Baseball and Basketball. All of the girls were members of the Glee Club. . Can You Imagine ? ? ? ? ? Mildred not whispering? Mary Ann not making amusing faces? Virgil growing out of his childish pranks? Gene and Elaine playing 'cat and rat' ? Sheryl being short and fat? Eleanor being tardy or absent? Glen having his lessons completed? Pete not giggling in his girlish voice?

After taking the wrong books to the wrong class room several times we finally got used to High School life with the aid of upperclassmen. Our class consists of three girls and seven boys. Two weeks after we came into the ninth grade, Miss Gerlach helped us elect the following class officers: junior Rayhons, President: Donald Nedved, Vice-Presidentg Dale Golbuff, Secre- tary Treasur er. After enjoying a ten day Christmas Vacation, We had the lovely thought of Semester exams on our minds. We made those without too much trouble, but now we're worrying about the next O1'l.eS. All of the boys but one play basketball. We aren't very good players as yet, but we think we will be better in the near future. 7th and 8th Grades School started on September 3rd with nineteen pupils re- porting. ln this group there were eight girls and eleven boys. There were ten pupils in the eighth grade and none in the seven- th grade. Of all of our studies we particularily enjoyed our Science classes. We were greatly interested in the strange world presented through the use of the microscope. Our Camera Club was enjoyed very much until cold winter weather stopped that activity. The spelling contest held in March was won by Margaret Nedved with Eugene Horecka a close second. Margaret represented our school in the county contest held in Garner. During the year several parties were held, one of them being a Halloween party at Mr. Hanson's Home and one a Valentine party at the home of Glennis Hutson. Our most important activity was the Jr. Hi. Basketball in which all the boys participated. We played six games during the year winning over Woden and Crystal Lake twice each and winning one and losing one with Klemme. The most exciting games were with Klemme when we won Z4 to 2.2 here and lost ZZ to Z1 at Klemme. - , ii 0, .V .V X 5 I i . ,VY xx - , ti- ' vv l 5th and 61:11 GRADES 3rd and 44:11 GRADES FIFTH AND SIXTH When school opened September 3, the fifth and sixth grades had an enrollment of twenty-four, fifteen boys and nine girls. Of this number. thirteen were in the sixth grade and eleven in the fifth. During the course of the year two new members joined our ranks. On January 4th, Billie Waugh transferred to the fifth grade from Ventura. Iona Holecek transferred to the sixth grade from Crystal Lake on February Z7. Subjects taught during the school year were Arithrnetic. Reading, Geography, History, Spelling Iowa History, Health, Science, Art and Penrnanship. In connection with our science unit on How Seed are Scatter- ed, we brought many different seeds to school and during our art period we placed them on a poster showing the seeds and how each was scattered. It was interesting to note the many differ- ent ways that the wind scatters seeds. We also learned that Hhitchhikingu was almost as popular with seeds as it is with individuals. Attractive Christrnas gifts were made in art classes as well as posters appropricate to the various seasons, and free-hand drawing. After completing the study of American History from the years of 1781 to 1853, which completes the growth of our nation to its present boundaries, the sixth graders are each making a cut-out map of the United States showing each acquistion of territory. Along with our work there must always be some play, so sev- eral parties and treat days were held. The first one was on Hall- oween when games and contests were participated in by all, and candy and novelty treats were received. About a week before Christxnas many of us were somewhat disappointed to learn that our annual Christrnas Program was to be cancelled because of the flu epedernic. Most of us were back in school again the day before Christmas vacation and all were back in school again the day after vacation. February fourteenth was -another red-letter day. We had our Valentine party which closed with the postmaster and his helpers distributing the many valentines and treats. During the fall and spring baseball was our chief sports interest. Recesses and physical education periods were spent on the baseball diamonds. Many new games were learned during our gym period in the winter months. New additions to the room this year included many interest- ing fiction books and a set of new reading text books for each grade.

PRIMARY ' 2 The first roll call in our primary room showed seventeen familiar faces and eleven new ones. This nurnber was increased by three But four were dropped from the register during the year, leaving eight in the Primer class, twelve in the first grade and seven in the second grade. Our room attendance suffered great losses during the whoop- ing cough, flu and measle epidemics. A six weeks absence is the longest one recorded. The different holidays were observed by us in their order. Appropriate room decorations were made for each and parties were enjoyed. Christrnas gifts were exchanged. The seasons were also studied and decorations used in keeping with them. Birthdays are red-letter days in our lives. King for a Day was the privilege of each on his birthday and parties and treats were enjoyed by all of us. Our art work has included sewing cards, finger painting, spatter painting and pottery clay modeling in addition to free hand drawing, coloring and work with construction paper. We've had much pleasure in our music classes during the year. Besides using our vocal cords, we marched, skipped, ran and imit- ated animals to music. Lively folk dances were learned and a rhythm band has supplemented our program. Many new and interesting books have been added to our lib- rary shelves, and we have spent many pleasant moments reading and discussing them together. THIRD AND FOURTH On the morning of September 3, 194-5, 24- boys and girls look- ed for seats in the third and fourth grade room. On October ZZ, Mary Kloster came from Pleasant Valley, Iowa. On December 3, Ninfa Luna left for her home in Texas, and a few weeks later Mary returned to Pleasant Valley. On February 18, Arlene Stoltenberg moved to Belmond Iowa, leaving a total of ZZ third and fourth graders. At Thanksgiving time the fourth grade made a frieze, showing the life of the pilgrims, in connection with their Social Studies. In December each child in the room brought colored feed sacks from home. These were used to make tablecloths and napkins for their mothers as Christmas gifts. The children are quite proud of their accomplishrnents in their music class this year. They have learned the fundamentals of read- ing music and have learned to sing a few two-part songs.

Coach Brown had three regulars, The Three Dons from the 194-4-4-5 season to form the nucleus of this years team. During the first semester Heller and Formanek were assigned the forward births Geddes center and Schulz and Hutson the guard positions. Heller was ineligable the second semester as he had participated in High School Athletics for four years. Stoltenberg received the assignment to the vacated forward position. Kadera and Gates were used in most of the garnes. We played 20 games during the season winning 13 and losing 7. Competition was keen and two of the losses were by 1 and 2. points. The highlight of the season was the County Tournament played at Britt. The Hornets met Klemme in the first round and at the end of 32 minutes of play the score was tied at 25. In the overtime period the Hornets sank a basket putting them into the semi-finals against Garner. This was another hotly contested game with the hornets holding the edge most of the way until the last four minutes of play. At the automatic time out the score was Z2-13 in favor of Hayfield when Garner found the hoop. As the game ended we still had the lead 24--Z2 and were slated to play Corwith in the finals. There was never a dull moment in the entire game and again all five were playing heads up ball . During the first half each team seemed to take turns at holding the advantage but the half ended ll-13 in favor of Corwith. Determined Hornets came back in the second half and fought until the finish. With the score Z8 to Z7 and seconds left to play Corwith sank a long shot from back of center to put them ahead Z9 to Z8 and winning the Championship. SCORES Hayfield Kanawha. . Hayfield Klernme. . .

SCHOOL LUNCH PROGRAM On Oct. 2.4-th the Hot-Lunch program started under the capable guidance of Mrs. Gifford Rikke who was assisted by Mrs. Ruth Nelson and Mrs. Bonnie Jean Pitkin. About rnid-year Mrs. Nelson resigned her duties. In March Mrs. Marvin Johnson replaced Mrs. Pitkin and worked with Mrs. Rikke for the balance of the school year. The 'cooks' were assisted during the noon-hour by a group of girls who worked in pairs and helped with the serving, dish-washing, etc. These girls included Imogene Weiland, Mary Ann Wellik, Eleanor Jakoubek, Wanda Hanson, Zelma Schnebly, Mildred Busch, Mildred Stupka, Sheryl Hutson, Jaunita Gjerde, Marie Jakoubek, Agnes Trca, Winona Schnebly and Arlis Taylor. Shirley Jensen and Mercedes Formanek shared the duties of checking meal tickets and assisting with the records in the office. Almost all of the pupils in the school took part in the program. There was an average of about 12.5 meals served each day. The total number of meals served during the year amounted to approximately 14-,400 and of this number about 13,600 were served to the pupils of the school. Every effort has been made to serve a well-balanced, nourishing meal and also to take into account the likes and dislikes of the pupils. We feel that the program has been a success and hope that you will give it your whole-hearted support next year. Healthy Appetites I like this line Our hardest work! Another helping, please! Boy!
