V e didn't know where we were to go so some of the upper class men took pity on us and showed us the different class rooms. Eventually we made our way to the study hall where we met all the other fresh- men, who were Delbert Zacharlasen, Danny Holt, Harold Williams,Jack Ehrhart, Carole Meggison, Don Swankie, Rita Hrenchir, Shirley Hervey, Shirley Ongerrcan and Colleen Palley. The first day was the hardest but after that we got into the routine of school and it passed quickly during the year the New Gymnasium was being finished and we were looking forward to seeing it completed. We lost Colleen Falley one of the members of our class to Seamen High in Topeka during the year. Attain we entered Hoyt High for our second year of hlirti school which gsined us a higher position as sophomores. We trained Ben Morris during this year, which brought the number of our class to ten aealn. Next came a very eventful Junior year. Of the most important to us was the Junior play Desperate Ambrose, and the Jr.-Sr. Banquet. The theme of the banquet was Star Light which proved very success- ful. At the start of the year we found that we had lost one of our members Don Swankee to Seamen High in Topeka but still Rained Patty Bausch from Mavetta. Durinr the year we also gained two more members Sandra Lander, from Manhattan and Jim Vanorstran from Highland Park in Topeka. At long last we come to our final roll as Seniors To us this seems the most ImDortant year or crur lives it is the ending of one life and the beginning of a new. V.e were sorry to find when we started our last year that we had lost Shirley Ungerman and Shirley Hervey. Two very important events during our senior year was the Senior play The Terror” which was in- teresting to present and a great success. And the Jr.-Sr. Banquet, which was one of the best and will be in our memories the rest of our lives. ULcu s yfJJb 'We, the Seniors, With four of our happiest years past do will and bequeath the following: I, Sandra Landen, du will and bequeath my red hair (providing my nickname goes witn it) to wanette Pappen.

To Mr. Tho qr we will our hard work in school and all the knowledge we have gained in school in the last two years. Year of 1970 Dear Mr. Thoman, While traveling around the world in the year 1970, we found the seniors of 1955 at their various Jobs. While in Hollywood who did we run into but the famous Danny Holt. Z am sure everyone knows him because he is one of the greatest bathing wit designers in the world. To make his life more exciting he personally designs a 1 1 o Marilyn Monroe's bathing suits. When in Florida who did we run Into but Rita Hrenchir who is getting in condition to be the first to swim the Pacific Ocean—dog-paddle style. We wish her success. In the middle west in South Dakota, we found Sandra Landen, married and the manager of a night club which was called Fourth Street Rag. Back east we found Jim Vanorstren. He is experimenting with the new Set Rich 0,- ick Method, a process to melt down goldfish to get the gold from them. He told us that Harold Williams was in California stand-in, and when he isn't at that Job he is teaching art of Diano playing. . Harold is Llberace's Liberace's children the Next we found Delbert Zacr.ariasen out in t he Sahara Desert selling fur naces to the natives. Africa we stooped in a little village. Here we met Carole Meggison who owns a clothing store'. She is trying to sell angora sweaters to t h e natives. Her favorite passtime is hunting. (For husbands, that is Back in America we found Ben Morris at Frankfort as Commander-in Chief of tne Women's Foreign Legion. They were leaving on a mission into cold Siberia. On the west coast we found Patty Bausch, now Mrs. Don Rickel, who has a little vine covered cottage in the country and is having a wonderful time keep- ing track of her six little Rickels. Last, but not least, back in Hoyt, we found the Ehrhart Dairy Farm. Jack has ust discovered how to milk two cows at once. Jack is single and -8 still giving all the girls a big thrill. We have told you all about tne fine Senior Class of 1955, so we had better get moving along. The Junior Class of 1955 Senior Sneak At high noon on the 12th of May the ten members of the senior class and their sponsor, Mr. Thorran, and Mrs. Jake Bausch accompaning us as lady sponsor, left for Rockaway beach, Missouri• We took a direct route to Springfield, Missouri, then down to Branson and on to Rockaway Beach. We arrived in the evening and were assigned to cottages at the Schneikart Lake Front Cottages. For the next two days we took boat rides of all sorts, including the showboat trip to Branson, fishing boats and speedboats. We went sightseeing through the Shepard of the Hills Country, which was described in the book by Harold Bell Wright We visited several of the caves including Marvel Cave and Spanish Cave. After two lays of fun and excitment we headed back for dear old Kansas and home. We were all tired but felt that it was time and money well spent.

TrJ£ ROUND-UP May 1955 TWO TEACHERS LEAVE HR. THOMAN GODS TO BARNES The junior class had char: e of this last issue oi the The Round-up, We gathered and wrote the new s articles with some help from a few of the under- classmen, drew the pictures, typed the stencils, ran them off, assembled the pages, and got the paper ready for dis- tribution. Several of us were assigned to write up the personality articles about the seniors, and hope they will be enjoyed. The class has tried to make the paper interesting, and we hope everyone enjoys reading it as much as we have in putting it out. EDITORIAL High school days are just about over for the seniors and they vail be receiv- ing their diplomas. The four years of hard work and pleaf ure will come to a close and they will start making some very important decision. Some will go to college; other vail take up jobs. In a few years some will likely be married while others vail be in the military service, A high school education is something the seniors will always cherish. They will need it to get jobs or to go on to college. It is something they have and cannot be taken away from them. The success of each will depend on his edu- cation and his intelligence to work out all of the problems that lie will have to face, I am sure that the seniors will all say the last four years have been enjoy- able, and that their efforts and the xinE spent in school will be worthwhile to their success in the future. ,, Caroline Rose Mr. Thoman has been teaching school for twenty-eight and one-half years. Of that tine he has been a principal four- teen years. He has taught in ten vari- our schools. Hr. Thoman's schooling has included under-graduate work at the Kansas State Teachers' College at Hays, Kansas, gradu- ate work at the Colorado State College of Education at Greely, Colorado, and he completed work for his Masters Degree at the A and H College, Fort Collins, Colo. He has been the principal of Hoyt High for the past two years. Next year he will be principal of the Barnes High School at Barnes, Kansas. Hr. Thoman has the best.wishes of the students and teachers for a pleasant school year. - ' . MR. LONGBSRG GOES TO WETMORE Hr. Harry Longberg, the science and agriculture teacher, will be leaving Hoyt High School at the end of this year. Mr. Longberg graduated from Kansas State College at Manhattan in the spring of 19U0. He started teaching that fall at Hoyt, and taught here until October of 19it2. He then v;ent into the arry and served for f 0 u r years. Following his discharge he taught one year at Inde- pendence, Kansas, then returned to Hoyt High and has been with us since t h at time. Mr. Longberg is going to Wetmore next year and we all wish him a lot of luck in his new job. 195U-1955 ATTENDANCE RECORD The following high school strdents have a perfect attendance record for this school year,x Rita Hrenchir Sandra Landen Janice Rickel Delores Riclcel Nanette Pappan Joyce Tuck Delbert Zachariasen Nancy Rickel Carolyn Younger Judy Ungor.nan Carol Bostwick Jean Martin Mildred Bolz THE ROUND-UP 7zom the Offfc-tce Another school year is nearly over. In many ways it lias been a very success- ful ye ar. If we have fallen short on some things, there is some consolation that a no ther school year v ill begin again next September, and we may again strive to reach the top rung on the lad- der of success in the educational field. The past two years have been two busy years for your principal. Tiro years in which a great deal of satisfaction has been derived from watching each of you grow, not only physically, but watching growth in knowledge, character and in ability to co-operate with your fellow students. Working toward the goal for the good of the group, whatever that goal might be, has been very much in evidence. It is ray sincere hope that each of you may continue to feel your responsi- bilities for your own individual improve- ment, as well as your obligations to tlie society of which you are a part. It has been a pleasure to work with all of you during the past two years, I irish you much success and happiness in the future. SENIOR REVERIES Four years ago we came to old Hoyt High. Half scared our first year, but with hard work and study, ire have reached the top. Nothing will replace the memories ire share with one another of the sporting events, parties, junior and senior plays, and the Jr.-Sr. banquets, and the fun we had putting them on. We wish to thank all the teachers for trying to pound something into our head. Whether w© learned anything or not, we will soon know. Now that ire are graduating into the fast-moving world, we can never forget old Hoyt High and may wish we were still there. Although it will go on as usual without us , we want to wish everyone at Hoyt High in the future the best of luck.

THE ROUND-UP c? c jbjlSJOI stnioR CLASS One dreary rainy day ten scared but determined freshmen entered the doors of Dear Old Hoyt High. V e didn't know where we were to go so some of the upper classmen took pity on us and showed us the different class rooms. Eventually we made our way to the study hall where we met all the other freshmen, who were Delbert Zachariasen, Danny Holt, Harold Williams, Jack Ehrhart, Carole Meggison, Don Swankie, Rita Hrenchir, Shirley Hervey, Shirley Ungerman and Colleen Falley. The first day was the liardest but after that v e got into the routine of school and it passed quickly during the year the new gymnasium was being finished and we were looking forward to seeing it completed. We lost Colleen Falley one of the members of our class to Seamen High in Topeka during the year. Again we entered Hoyt High for our second year of high school which gained us a higher position as sophomores. We gained Ben Morris during this year, which brought the number of our class to ten again. Next came a very eventful Junior year. Of the most im- portant to us was the junior play Desperate Ambrose, and | the Jr.-Sr. Banquet. The theme of the banquet was StoGr Light, which proved very successful. At the start of the year we found that we had lost one of our members Don Swankie to Seamen High in Topeka but still gained Patty Bausch from Mayetta. During the year we also gained two more members, Sandra Landen from Manhatten and Jim Vanorstran from High- land Park in Topeka. At long last we come to our final roll as Seniors. To us this seems the most important year of our lives, it is the ending of one life and the beginning of a new We were sorry to find when we started our last year that we had lost Shirley Ungerman and Shirley Hervey. Tiro very important events during our senior year was the Senior play, The Terror, which was interesting to present and a great success. And the Jr.-Sr. Banquet, which was one of the best and will be in our memories the rest of our lives. It has been a very prosperous and happy four years and we regret to see them end. Our high school days will be in ories forever.

HIE ROUND-UP IilOTH ER S Day Mother's Day is a day set apart every year, the second Sunday in May, in honor of motherhood, Ihe wearing o r a carna- tion, white for the dead, and colored if one's mother is living, is the visible manifestation o f the event. It is fur- ther celebrated by appropriate sermons in the churches, by special programs and by family reunions. The day was first suggested in 1907 by Miss Anna Jarvis of Philadelphia. She asked a friend to remember with; her the anniversary of the death of her mother, and of her desire to dedicate a day to all mothers. Before the next anniversary came, she had interested many individuals and organizations in the observance of the second Sunday in May as Mother's Day. As a result, Philadelphia observed the day. Hay 1( 1908. On i ay 10, 191U, the Resident of the United States set aside, by annual pro- clamation, the second Sunday in May as Mother's Day, Carol Bostwick We a 11 remeber Mother's Day which was May 8, but will v.Te remember Father's Day which falls on Sunday, June 19.
