HAGYE TWENTY-SIX THE PERISPHERE CLASS Taking my magic carpet from the shelf in the closet, my thoughts take me 'back many years, back to High School days, and to my classmates.

'As I come closre, I see it's Ly-nn. He is telling his hired man how to plant the wheat, so that if the grasshoppers will eat the stem, the kernels will still be plump and firm. This farm counry is really interesting. 'What's that squaIbbling I hear in that chicken house? Better not go near there. I'll just go close enough to see who it is. VWell, it's Marcella andrbelores .JSh! Let's he-ar what they're saying. Goodness, -I'm sure I can't help them out- Marcella wants the radio tuned to swing music, she thinks the chickens will lay more eggs listening to that, and Delores thinks classi- cal music would be more satisfactory to the hens. Uh, hum! Floating through the air, again,. I see a great crowd gathered. 'Why it's a football game! Bet- ter see what it's all albout. Probably I'll see some old friends. Theres Tom Kelly, coachlnlg the lads in the 'blue and white uniforms. Who's their opponentscoach? It's -a lbig husky man. I think' I'll go closer so that I' might see who it is. Franklin Skogen, of all people. Well, that is a coincidence- They were captains of the football team when they 'Went to I-iillsboro High. This city seems to be very amazing.

This is a surprise- VVhat a mignificent city and such a beautiful school. The interior is just gorgeous. I hear a voice, Today we will have a ten-minute speed test. Do my ears deceive me? No, it is Mary PROPHECY Ellen. Hello, what's this? Bulletin-4History in Room 14 today, signed Charlotte fPau1son, in- structress. 'Ihey always were great pals and now they'r-e- teaching together.

You might know, there stands :Arnold and Lyle in their white aprons, with the same mischievous look on their faces that they had when they worked for Ole Evans. Oh, what large- offices they have around here. Who's this gentleman-or is he-sitting with his feet on the desk?

I-Iere's a small town-probably someone I know lives here.. A barber shop- Look who are proprietors here- James and Victor. A bill-who's candidate? Vote for Donald Arnegard as Mayor. I always knew Donnie -would get some place with his -politics. Andi here's his office and Helen is his assistant. I must continue on- 'with my journey. What's this friendly little gathering about? The soap box orator is Earl Overm-oe-another candidate for Mayor. You'd never 'dream of two classmates competing for an office, 'would you? California, here I come! What a clever little gasoline station. John Strom, owner.. Well, I don't need' any gas or any of his assistance- Gee, but it's getting dark, but I'm going to continue. I hear soft strains of organ music. It sto-ps, but as I come closer to the church I see Zola leaving the organ and Ralph ascending the pulpit. This must be Los Angeles I'm coming into. S and S Studebacker Company. I look closer and in the office I see two husky gentlemen with fat cigars in their mouths. Darrell and Donald. They have the radio on and- are listening to a ball game- I think I'll listen in, too. We will now turn the mike over to Wallace Os-mon, who will lbring you the game play by play. Another member of our flock gathered in. The Hollywood lights brighten my path for many miles.. There-'s a preview and whose name is in shining lights? Clark 'Gable II -now that Clark 'Gable I has grown old, LeRoy has taken his place-we all knew that he would crash the movies. -- Feeling contented and happy, I'm homefward bound. Even though am-or care to know-I'm glad that I was abl-e to look in-to their lives and find th-em all well and happy.

PAGE TWENTY-EIGHT THE PERISPHERE CLASS HISTORY In September of 1995, forty-two students marched with fast beating hearts into their second lap of their educational jour- ney. When we had somewhat fallen into the routine of school life, we named Peggy Arnegard president, and Helen Slettengren advisor, to guide the class in its new environment, After several weeks of tranquility, the Sophomores gave us the annual initiation. Thirty-four students were at the door to answer Sophomore roll call- Vivian Wilson, Phyllis 1-lolmquist, tLaVerne Matteson joined our ranks. We chose Wallace Osmon president, and Clarence Ellingson advisor to help us through the last half of our school career. We gave the freshmen their initiation party in which we secured our revenge. The rest of the sophomore year lwent the way of all good Sophomore years. The Junior class' presented themselves with a feeling of, confidence and experi- ence to enter the third- year of high school education.. We elected Mary Ellen Sarles to lead us with the assistance of Claire Auman as class advisor. We 'presented our -Class -play -A Bride for -Grandpa, in the Hillsboro 'Armory November 19, 1938. Talent furnished 'by the- -following: John Strom, Mary Sarles, Wallace Osmon, Thomas Kelly, Gerry Keller, fDarrel1 Sorum, Charlotte Paulson, II-Ielen Halvor- son. Early in March we started working on our Junior-Senior Prom.. Our president Mary Sarles appointed the various com- mittees to take charge of the various duties- - - Embarking on the final lap of our high school journey, -we chose as our leader, 'Charlotte Paulson, -who was as- sisted by iClaire Auman our class advisor. After much delay we recovered and be- gan flashing our class rings. The class play, -Douvble Troufble, was presented before a full house in the Gem Theatre. It included an all star cast with such per- formers as Darrell Scrum, Tom Kelly, Mary Sarles, Vernon Strand, lLeRoy Jacobson, 'Gerry Keller, Ruth Lindgren, Evelyn LMurphy, Eloise Koering, Lyle Henning, Charlotte Paulson, 'Emogene And-erson, John Strom. ' As -we gaze 'back at our past four years and think with satisfaction of -our ideals gained and obtained, we regret to have to bidi farewell. 'Finally with the Junior- Senior Prom, Baccalaureate and Gradua- tion, -we shall draw the curtain on our high school career.
