Class Will NVe, the seniors of 1950 of Holden High School being of sound minds and generous natures and having been educated in unselfish motives do here- by publish and declare our last will and testament. To the Board of Education, faculty and student body we leave our best wishes for continued suc- cess in maintaining the high standards of educa- tion for which Holden High School is noted. Also to the faculty we will the memory of all the noise we didn't make in the halls and all the mischief we didn't get into. To the juniors we leave our caps and gowns, the front seats in assembly, the Constitution tests and all the wonderful fun of graduating. To the sophomores we give all the surplus knowledge which we have gained and the task of keeping all library and reference books disfigured for future reference.. , To the freshmen we leave our ability to whis- per in study hall without being caught and the memory of all our happy times in Holden High. To the seventh and eighth grades we leave the honor of keeping all lockers and desks as clean and as neat as we have kept them for the last few years. To our dear old Alma Mater we leave our names carved and signed in the many places in which they will be found and the memory of our many gathings in the halls, lawn and front steps.

-........,.............-....--------fmW i5 Y 'wis- Class Prophecy A Message to the Stars Perhaps some of you here remember the eve- ning of May 16, 1950 when the graduates of Holden High had their class day program. Thought you might be interested in knowing the successes that these graduates have achieved. Mrs, Bullard who was sponsor of that class just handed me a letter which gives a last minute report on the 1950 graduates of Holden High. She has asked me to read it to you tonight. September 2, 1960 Dear Mrs. Bullard: How is everything in Holden? It has been some time since the 1950 grads have been assemb- led together and since you were their sponsor, I thought you might be interested in knowing of their whereabouts. I have been doing a bit of checking up on them of late. Y I suppose you are retired now aren't you? Herby Thomason's ambition was to make a living. He has a large factory where he man- ufactures kitchen gadgets. His specialty is a feather-Weight rolling pin which has proven so pop- ular with the men that he has practically become millionaire overnight. I was reading the paper and noticed that Mer- vin McCarty is With the F.B.I. now. He has gone to Scotland to solve the mystery of the third mur- der in Macbeth. Have you listened to Dr. I. Q. lately? The master of ceremonies is Franklin' Gudde. I wonder if you have read the last edition of the Science Digest? It contains quite a lengthy article on Dick Petre's scientific experiments. He is now trying to develop a blue radish with pink spots for very special occasions. I received a letter from Clyde YVilson last week. She married a VVall Street millionaire and has spent the summer traveling with her husband. I found her letter quite interesting and I am sending you a portion of it. I must tell you about my vacation this past summer. I spent the entire summer traveling and having a wonderful time. I went to Iowa by bus and stopped to see Donna Hammontree and Wen- dell Daniel. They have their own farm home with the most modern farm buildings and hequipment. 'Wendel is president of the National Grange and Donna is 4-I-I leader and president of the Extension Club, 'WVe dropped down through Kansas bn my way to California to say 'Hello' to Carl Stumpff. He is known as 'XVheat King' .and owns thousands of acres of wheat land. 'WVe stopped in Flagstaff, Arizona to see Agnes Ann Raber. She loves her work as Math teacher in the colege there. I went down town in a cab there. In the mir- ror I noticed the cabby looking at me. It was none other than Lyndle Beil My cousin and I were cruising along the boulevard in San Diego when a motorcycle cop drew up and motioned us to stop. He said, Miss don't you know you are in the wrong lane? and started to take my name and address when he looked up and I said, NVhy if it isn't Bob Famul- iner. Imagine seeing you here. My cousin and I had another mishap a few days later when a bus bumped into us and I re- ceived several cuts and bruises. I was taken to a large hospital in San Diego. A sweet nurse came in and took my temperature. I said Aren't you Janie Surber? She said Yes I have been here for six years. A doctor in a white coat came in and said he would have a look at those cuts. Xvould you believe it? It was Tom Famuliner as real as life. W'e came back to Kansas City by plane. 'When I stepped into the plane the hostess said in 0 ...4...,....-. .. ..- -- .. Q a friendly way 'Hello Clyde'. It was Marion Kend- rick. Vfhen we got started she said Do you know the pilot of this plane? It was Bobby Smith. She said the mechanic was Dale Xvarren. XX-'e called on Doris NValters when we got back to the city. She is still answering telephones but only in her own beautiful home. Yes, she got what she Wanted out of life, a man-tall, dark and handsome man and a beautiful home. Have you heard Evelyn Garrison singing over the radio on The Hour of Charmu? I suppose you read Betty Jo Simpson's edi- torial in the Chicago Tribune last Sunday, Trust Betty to keep up with politics. I suppose you know Mary Lou Fisher is writing children's books. Beverly Harper is illus- trating them. VVhile in Hollywood we went to see Barbara Ludlam's new picture '-'Blondie's Trip To Mars. You know Charles Park plays the part of Dag- wood Bumstead now. I thought the sweet little usher looked familiar. Yes, it was Vera Ann Sisk. 'I picked up a book to read on my way out. It was Barbara Jones' new novel When Love is Young. I bought a new suit in Hollywood. It was a bit long and I had to take it to be altered. Patsy Fitzgerel was the tailor. VV:-: stopped at a delightful tourist camp, The Idle W'hlle Inn at Tucson, Arizona. The owner and operator Carl Hamilton made our stay a very pleasant one. There was a filling station near-by. It was operated by Louis Lee, lNe went to Chicago by train. We had a love- ly trip. XVhile we were in Chicago we went on a sight-seeing tour of the places of interest there. One very interesting place that we visited was the Gen- eral Motors Plant. NVe were received in the recep- tion room by a little lady. She said Hello Clyde, what brings you out this way? I looked up and said VVhy if it isn't Lucille Carter. VVe went by the room where the typists were and saw Betty Riddle typing like the wind. IVe went through the president's office and his private secretary, Dixie Hunter, told us to wait a bit and we could see President James Daldrup himself. VVhile driving around the city we passed over a large bridge. The guide told us that Fred Christensen drew .the blue prints for the bridge. We went out to a drive-in for lunch and who do you suppose our waitress turned out to be? It was Pebble Phelps. 'We had a nice little chat. She told us that Joann Phelps is doing secretarial work in Sedalia now. I went downtown to get my hair fixed and I saw a neat little shop on the corner called Moore's Beauty Salon . It is operated by Jo Anne Moore. This is only part of Clyde's letter. She must have had a wonderful time on her trip. .Say, Mrs. Bullard is Al Null still manager of the Kroger Store in Holden? Did you know that Ed Clements is half-back on Notre Dame's All Star Team this year? Is Rosalie Dameron still the frist grade teacher there? Do you still keep up with politics? I see Dan Hayes has gone into politics. He is running for senator in his district. He is sure to win because of his likable personality and the ceaseless efforts of his campaign manager, Velma Smith. Have you heard from Joe Morrison lately? He is working for Goodyear Rubber Co. Faye Bedsaul is still coaching the Holden Eag- lets, isn't she? You know last season her girls didn't lose a single game. - Have you seen the last issue of Look Maga- zine? Did you recognize the cover girl. It is Darlene Zumwalt. She is a model in New York. -The Stargazer Rosalie Dameron
