Senior Class Prophecy Here it is, 1954, and twelve ambitions looking graduates are about to start down the long road of life. Will they be successful? someone asks. Well, now, that's a hard question to answer, but having known them all so well through their school years l'm game to make some prophecies. First, we'll have to shift our prophetical minds, say about, fifteen years ahead to 1969. That ought to give them plenty of time to be successfully settled, we hope. Our next problem is transportation. 'Let's go by air- plane, someone suggests. Gracious, how ancient! Let's hop in my super-sonic atom powered space-mobile. Our first stop is Oklahoma. Who is that we see off in the distance? Why, it's Gordon Lambrecht, surrounded by a herd of cattle! Gordon tells us that he is a success ful cattle rancherg and in his own words he states Wal, I owe it all to the little 'missus and our thirteen kids who have pushed me on to success! ! Good luck, Gordy! May your herd Qof cattlej grow to be a million. Back to our space-mobile and zoom! Here we are in Hollywood and who do we meet on the street but Pat Krubeck! Why, we hardly recognized her The glare of the dia- monds is blinding--and who is her charming escort? You'd never guess--Eugene Briss! Pat'tells us that she and Eugene discovered that they were meant for each other --and the movies. Both are very successful stars. Isn't that simply divine? Sigh-- 'bye now, see you in the movies. While we're in the sunny state of California, let's jaunt down to Santa Anita to see the races. Oh! Look at that young man leading that beautiful black horse around. Why-- upon my word--it's none other than Buffa Ekrenl fthe man that isl. They tell us that he's made millions raising track horses and running them all over the country. Good luck in the future, Buffa, and may all your little colts grow up to be beauties! Back to our space-mobile and away. Let's see--how about going out East a while via North Dakota. We have to see how things are back home. Dear me! Look at that mo- dern, up-to-date school building they have in Kensal now! Oh--the primary grades are out for recess. Say - that teacher looks familiar! Sure enough, it's Janice Neva! We've been told that she has been named the most successful teacher in North Dakota. Congratulations, Janice and may your career continue to be as successful. There!s another new building on main street too. We've been told that Bob Goehring built it and is very prosperous in his taxidermy business. He tells us that he started his career in the back of the barn on the old home place, but that business was so abundant and his services so sought that he brought it into this fine new building. Good luck, Bob, and we hope that your stuffed animals travel to all parts of the world. We hate to leave these familiar faces and places but - back to the air. Gracious! We almost collided with that other space ship--but isn't it a beauty? You clon't say-- that belongs to Carol Spitzer, our old classmate? This is a surprise! l've heard that she teaches school in Illinois during the winter months. Well, she always did want to travel. Here's hoping She steers that ship around the leaning tower of Pisa! Her driving never was anything to brag about. Here we are in New York at last--where shall we go first? Oh, do you see that big white building over there? It is New York Hospital. How about getting a closer look? Here come three nurses. Let's ask them where Times Square is. Excuse us, but can you tell us--wait! lt's Karen, Clary, and Yvonne! Can you imagine that! We knew you went into nurses training together, but who'd think you'd still be together after fifteen years. You say you're all three superintendents at the Hospital now. Congratulations, but 'bye now. We have to move on. 16 I

There's the Empire State Building! Isn't it marvelous? I..et's go in and look around. I hear that the offices in there are simply beautiful. There's a stenographer over there. Let's ask her if we can go to the top. Say, doesn't she look familiar? Let me think-- Sandy! Sure enough. 1didn't recognize her with that pony-tail hair-do! Oh, so you'1-e working part time here and part time for Arthur Godfrey. lsn't he pretty old? Oh, but l'1e's still going good, huh? Well, here's wishing you more success in the future. Back to the airport and to our space-mobile. 1 imagine that it's about time to head for home. Someone ask that stewardess over there if the ship is fueled and ready to take off. What? You say you just talked to Marlene Schroeder? She's a stewardess for Trans-World Airlines! Now, isn't thatusomethingl Well, keep walking on air, Mar- lene, and you ought to be able to bowl the passengers over with that laugh of yours! Homeward bound--1'd say our old classmates have all shaped this old Wqfld to suit themselves pretty well, wouldn't you? Of course we knew they'd all be successful, but it's been fun seeing them and confirming our predictions--right? ? ? :Ir :Qc :fc :Qc :jr :Qc :Qc 21: :lc :fc :lc :Qc :lc :jc :fc :fr :lc :fc :Is :lr :lc :jc :jc :1: :jc :jc :Qc :Qc :jc THE HISTORY OF OUR CLASS In the year 1942, six boisterous youngsters began the first grade in Kensal. Through the years of grade school, many students were gained and some were lost. Of these first six, only three were destined to graduate together. They are Gordy Lambrecht, Haakon Ekren, and Karen Burleson. When our high school days began in the fall of 1950, there were fifteen eager, but a little frightened freshmen. Those chosen as class officers were as follows: President, Yvonne F.5Vice-president, Buffag and Secretary-treasurer, Karn. We endured the torments and hardships to which we were subjected by our upper-classmen with fine spirit and found ourselves wiser, less timid, and more inclined to mischief at the end of this year. TWO of OUT ClaSSmaT2GS,Carole Schlosser and Billy Walker didn't return in our sopho- more year. Carole transferred to Jamestown High, and Billy moved to McHenry, thus reducing the number of members in our class tO thirteen. Those officers selected were as follows: President, Clarice,Vice-president, Patty, and Secretary-treasurer, Sandra. In our junior year we were able to retain our number of thirteen members. In the fall of 1952 we presented our junior class play, Ginger Snaps Back, and in referring to it we will modestly say that it was a smash hit! In the spring we spent many an hour preparing for the junior-senior banquet and prom, but this we enjoyed doing very much and we hope that the seniors felt royally treated to justify our intentions. As class officers we selected President, Patty K., Vice-president, Yvonne F., and Secretary- treasurer, Janice. The most eventful of our school days proved to be our senior year. Our number was reduced to twelve when Yvonne Nogosek left school in the fall of 1953. One of the first thrilling experiences was the receiving of our class rings only a few days after school began. Also in the fall we presented our class play, Saved by the Belle. In January of the new year excitement reigned among the seniors when they were notified by the photographers of the day when they would have their graduation pictures taken. We were very pleased with the results and quickly traded them with our fellow classmates after they were received. Those chosen as class officers were as follows: President, Eugene Vice-President, Janice, and Secretary-treasurer, Yvonne F. V All in all, our school days have been very pleasant, and we will surely miss our fellow classmates in the years to come. 17
