Eldon Otto Paul endows his ball and chain, Jacqueline Hentze to Allan Stetzel. Eldon says he can ' t be bothered with this trivial, lollygagin stuff now that he ' s ready to take his place in life. Leonard Jack Dinius wills his gold filling to Beverly Cramer 10 that she can put a down payment on Wiss Spice ' s Buick. Marjorie Jane Shideler wills her beautiful red tresses to Marilynn McFarren. Marilynn ' s secret desire is to have naturally red hair. Opal Jeanette Johnson wills her slim, shapely figure to Wilma HoUey. To Richard Weaver, Patricia Rea Kelsey wills her news reporting job and her pair of horn-rimmed glasses to make him look dignified. George Pinney wills to Karlita Kline his farm so that she and Rex will have a place to live when Karlita puts the fatal question to Rex. Elizabeth Ruth Hine wills her ability to attract the opposite sex to Allan Jones so that the family jeep won ' t be filled with boys all the time. Morris Lee Striggle wills to Leah Warren his position on the Varsity basketball squad. David Lee Stump, Blondie, wills to Morris Hoover his ability to get along with the Junior girls. We know that Morris gets along with all the girls, but Dave has a certain technique that seems more appealing to them. James Richard Gaston wills his boisterous laugh to Marilyn Patten. George Albert Ness wills to Bob Shatzer his A-1 herd of Holsteins. Why not start a dairy, Bob? Donna Lee Redding wills her most valuable asset, her ability, to Doris Miller. Gordon Lee Jones wills to Keith Steele his Jeep, so that Keith may be as popular with the girls as Gordon is. Patricia Rea Kelsey and Donna Lee Redding will their own private candy room key to Mr. Hinton. Sorry they removed the lock that went with it,

ills We, the Senior Class, being of sound mind and body and knowing by Almighty de- cree all things must come to an end declare this our last will and testament. To the Junior Class we leave the privilege of carrying on the publication of our an- nual. The Saxmuri. The individual bequests are the following: Clara Jean Clark wills all her heart throbs, with the exception of one, to Leah Warren. After all, Clara doesn ' t want to be an old maid. Jerry Dean Walter wills the excess of his 6 feet five and one-half inches to Delmar Jackson. Nedra Yvonne Pence wills her ability to talk back to the teachers and to say what she thinks — when she thinks it — to meek, mild Clotene Heaston. Margaret Ann Bachman wills her speedy gift of gab to Marilynn McParren. Betty Lou Pratt wills her sweet, mild, unruffled personality to the only girl in the Junior class who can really use this valuable asset — Joyce Schmidt. William Henry Schnepp bequeaths all his chestnut-brown, curly locks to that gorgeous, kinky-haired (Ha!) Carolyn Wohlford. William Griffin Winchester bestows upon some boy in the Junior class his world- famous athletic ability. This lucky boy is Harry Swing. Willie also wants Harry to have all the cigars he has ever smoked or ever hopes to smoke. They will really come in handy, Harry, when you are going home from ball practice. Thomas George Piatt leaves his 28 Chevy to Wayne Dennis. Tommy says he hates to see his old red-headed heart throb, Dimples, have to walk out to Mahon. Turk, if you look under the front seat, you may find several of Bluebeard Piatt ' s past flames and a can of your favorite pipe tobacco.

Prophecy of the Class of 1948 In this year of our Lord, 1958, we submit a detailed report of the 1948 class of Roanoke High School. First in our survey we run across Margaret Ann Bachman. We find her residing in the halls of Huntington High School. She pitched a pup tent, and has spent all of her time there since her graduation from good old Roanoke. Margaret Ann says that she enjoys life in Huntington High School thoroughly, but that it is no consolation for her lost love. Joe, still a bachelor, is farming west of Roanoke. On the road to Mardenis we come to the lovely, little, white farm home of Mr. and Jerry Walter. Mrs. Walter, the former Jane Shideler, is kept busy herding the Jane and Jerry Juniors under her wing. Jane married Jerry shortly after Gerald ran away with a brunette chorus girl. Mr. Leonard Jack Dinius, the terror of our class, we find married to a 235-pound lady wrestler. This is one gal Jack isn ' t beating around. He has become very meek and mild, and he hands Mamma the pay envelope every Saturday night. By the way. Jack is ironing tea towels in a laundry for a living. Elizabeth Hine, now Mrs. Robert Schieber, is the owner and proprietor of a roadside restaurant, called The Chicken Shack. She and Bob are kept busy serving the public, as they have built up quite a thriving business. Liz really runs the place, but she lets Bob think he does. As we travel on we come to Miss Clara Jean Clark. Miss Clark, still a maiden, is president of an international correspondence club. Between her club meetings and her many and varied dates, Clara is kept quite busy. Miss Clark remained unmarried be- cause she was unable to decide between her many swains. Patricia Rea Kelsey is now residing in Chicago and still working on her first novel. She has been working on it since her graduation from Indiana University and Butler University. Pat has a small home under the elevated tracks so that she can absorb local color for her novel. It ' s going to be a best seller, if she ever gets beyond the first chapter. She keeps rereading it; she ' s fascinated by her own work! Professor George Pinney is teaching Agriculture at Purdue University. He made it through eight years of study with flying colors, and now is engaged to an able young home economics student at the university. David Stump is now employed as press agent for Jackie Van Meter, queen of the show, at the Fox Theatre in Indianapolis. Dave is not the boy he used to be. He enjoys his job immensely and hopes to make it his life-long career. Miss Nedra Pence, R. N., our angel of mercy, has finally become head nurse at a large dog and cat hospital, after being discharged from St. Joseph Hospital because of cruelty to patients. She denies that several disappointing love affairs with the interns had anything to do with her leaving the hospital, but who knows? She spends all hei spare time trying to track down the master of a poor, lost dog named Sorry. George Ness has become the owner and proprietor of a noted gambling establish- ment in Chicago, called the Glass Slipper. George remained a bachelor, but we hear
