It is hoped, that durirg your years at the Lamont Public Schools, you have learned well the things required of you as American citi- zens as well as the great opportunities open to you as citizens. You may indeed be proud and thankful that you live in Americawhere you are able to worship, speak, and act as you please, as well as follow the profess- ion of your choice, etc. Be sure that you do not get the idea that you are now finished with your edu- cation, for you have just being.

Those enrolling were: Mary Adel Ott, Dale Ott, Larry Mcllvain, and Gene Storrer from Lena Valley: Roy Lawson and Raymond McCoy from Gridley Grade School, and Doris Anne Winzeler from the Lamont Grade School. In the middle of the first semester Raymond McCoy moved to Vir- gil, reducing the class to six. On Friday of the first week the freshmen were properly initiated. During the day the boys wore women's dresses and hats while the girls were attired in gunny sack dresses. All were decorated with a large 'FW on their innocent foreheads while onions adorned their necns. Dari n g the evening all were run through the paddling line. The class officers were elected as follows: President--Dale Ott, Vice-President--Larry Mcllvaing Secretary-Treasurer--Mary Ott, Student Council Representatives--Roy Lawson and Doris Winzelerg Class sponsor-- Mrs. Sarah B. Harrison. During the freshmen year two parties were enjoyed. One was a class picnic, the other a party awarded as a result of a ticket selling cam- paign. The Sophomore Class gained two more members, Bob Meliza and George Ketley. This made the enrollment for '48 and '49 a total of eight mem- bers. Expenses were shared with the Juniors to meet the cost of a pic- nic held at Peter Pan Park in Emporia. Bowling and roller-skating were enjoyed afterwards. A picnic held at the Falls was also attended by the Sophomores in which costs were shared with the Freshmen. The class officers were: President--Bob Melizag Secretary-Treasurer- Doris Winzelerg Student Council Representatives--Mary Ott and Dale Ott. The class sponsor was Mr. Robert Meliza. During the summer of 1949 Bob Meliza moved to Missouri and Roy Lawson moved to Virgil. This made the class membership six. The Junior Class officers elected were: President--Doris Winzelerg Vice-President--Larry Mcllvaing Secretary-Treasurer--George Ketleyg Stu- dent Council Representatives--Mary Ott and Dale Ott. Class Sponsor was Mr. J. D. Van Pelt. On April 5, 1950, the Juniors presented their play, 'The Old Home Town.' It was considered a great success. Seven dignified Seniors enrolled at Lamont High on September 4. They were: Dale Ott, Larry Mcllvain, Gene Storrer, George Ketley, Mary Ott, Doris Winzeler, and Rosemarie Wucherer. Rosemarie was an exchange stu- dent from Germany who spent one year at Lamont High School. Class officers for the '50-'51 year were: President--George Ketleyg Vice-President--MaryOttg Secretary-Treasurer--Dmis Winzelerg Historian-- Geneiworrerg Student Council Representatives--Larry Mcllvain and Rose- marie Wucherer. Senior class sponsor was Mr. Bert Rogers. The senior class play, WHere Comes Charlie,' was presented on November 10, 1950. 6 I Baccalaureate services were held in the school auditorium on May 15, 1951. Commencement, the event which all the seniors had been looking forward to, became real on May 17. SENIOR CLASS ?ROPHECY One winter day, early in the year of 1951, George Ketley, one of our well-known dignified Seniors, came to school withi n of a series of let- ters from his brother Frank. These letters from Frank, who was on duty with the United States Navy in Japan, were soon to become popular with the Lamont high School students. While on leave in Tokoyo, Frank was persuaded by a Japanese woman to have his fortune told. The fortuneteller's powers were so great that Frank ventured to ask her what would haupen to the Senior Class of 1950. She made the following prediction for the year of 1971. Gene Storrer, who was always a studious sort of fellow, has become internationally known as the only statesman in the world able to cope with Russian diplomats. He is now the American Ambassador to Rwxna. His great speeches have persuaded the Russian people so greatly that Joseph Stalin is now the head garbage collector in the Sanitation Department of Moscow. Dale Ott finds himself in no better standing in 1971 than in high school days. Halas now become president of the Lonely Hearts of America Club, advertising through Clint, Texas. He has greatly improved this radio station by adding commercials of a greater variety. Rosemarie Wucherer is teaching school in what is now Free Germany. She has comaletely revolutionalized the German way of teaching by her ability to hold all men students in a spell--caused by the admiration of her beauty. She gives all the credit of this wonderful ability to her year's stay at Lamont, Kansas. Doris Anne Winzeler, nationally known as Queen of the Follies, set all theatrical records for box office returns. She has acquired many ardent admirers due to her beautiful operatic voice. Smm critics report she is competing with Margaret Truman as the most sought operatic singer Mary Adel om, of all times. Larry Mcllvain, who has become a highly successful cattle rancher of eastern Kansas, has developed a new strain of hybrid cattle--no bones-- which leaves more to his loving and George Ketley high school. Due ics, he was able to help plan and produce new atomic last few years, he has settled down to an upside-down, room for meat. He oweshis successful ranching carreer vivacious wife, the former Miss Marjorie Schmutz. joined the Air Force soon after being graduated from tokds astounding achievements in high school mathemat- weapons. In the lop-sided,,crazy life with his lovable and jolly wife, Mary Adel Ott. immediately upon leaving high school, received several very good offers from Hollywood movie studios. She finally decided to go to work for Metro-Goldyn-Mayer, the lucky company! After being e remarkable and ,famous moving picture star, she decided to leave her career to become a housewife, and a great factor for this decision was due to her kind-hearted sympathy to the other great motion phxure mndios who had all gone broke. lt seemed that the American citizens would not attend a movie unless Mary Miniature, her motion picture name,was in the cast. However, Mary is now the proud and loving mother of seven fine children. The Ketley's eldest son, Georgie Junior, is now reco vearirig from the loss of his four front teeth, the result of an unfortunate ac- cident on a grapevine. 7 CLASS WILL We, the graduating class of 1951 of the Lamont High School, City of Lamont, County of Greenwood, State of Kansas, United States, being of sound mind and body do hereby make, publish, and declare this to be our last will and testament, hereby revoking all former documents of this nature.

To the Freshman we leave our deepest sympathy for being what they are and the hope t at they to will become seniors in the not to distant fut- llI'9 a To the Faculty we leave all headaches that we have caused in the past four years. .

Gene Storrer leaves to Carl Ott his great oratory ability and to Wayne Tatman the privilege of being center of the basketball team. Rosemarie Wucherer leaves her great knowledge of foreign languages and countries to Joe Leiser. Also to Keith Ott she leaves her longcu ly hair.

Also to Darlene French his Mathematical aptitude. Dale Ott leaves his saint like actions and attitudes to Jerry Young, and also his practice of mending broken hearts to Jerry Carson.

Mr. Bert K. Rogers leaves his great dislike for profanity to Mr. Tom Saffell. Having bequeathed all we possess, we hereby appoint Mr. B. K. Rogers to be executor of this, our lest will and testament. In witness there- of, we have hereunto set our hands and seals this seventeenth day of May A. D. 1951.
