PK LAST! ,ff Eg QCLASS PIQCDPHECYQ On the morning of May 27, 19609, I picked up the morning paper and as I turned the pages over, nv eyes fell first on the Lovelorn column of which Pauline Cook is now the Editors I next came to the sports section where I read that Donald Schelling had been named the years' most outstanding athlete. After I finished reading the paper, and since it was alnmst noon, I left my hotel rooms As I left the hotel there was a taxi parked by the curb, so I decided to ride to the restaurant where I planned to meet Betty Fulton, who is now secretary for the May- OT Of New York. The taxi driver was none other than Russell Nieman, he said that he had recently heard from Harry Thomas who owned a rancho Harry wrote that Bcb Kretsinger who was working for him break- ing branchos had just been badly hurt and that Dona Myers was nursing him back to healthe When I met Betty, she was very excited about a letter that she had received from Helen Book who had married the owner of a large fruit orchard in Californiao Helen told Betty that she heard that Paul Bawinkel was logging in Washington, and that she saw Lois Myers a few weeks ago. Lois was now a minister's wife with several kids. The waiter who came to take our order was, to our surprise, Kathryn Viel. Kathryn told us that she just came to New York a few weeks ago. When she left home there were only a few of our class that stayed near Leaf River. Dick Kretsinger was running the town's recreation parlor, which still seemed to be a very busy place. Ralph Meier was now raising swine on a farm west of Leaf River, and on the east side was Marvin Burkhart in stiff competition with him. PRQPHECY CON T Kathryn also told us that Jeanne M ers was running a day nursery in Mt. Morris. That afternoon Betty and I, since there was nothing else to do, went to a show, To our a- mazement, the producer was Wayne Schnulle, The show told the true life of Bill Wertin, who after years diligently spent trying, had finally struck gold in a Western mine. After leaving Betty that afternoon, I went back to my hotel room and turning on the radio I heard none other than Eldon Hundertmark and Todd Rood telling of their hunting and fishing experiences during the past years in the North Woods. Having heard of all my classmates during m day off from work, I, Lola Mae Wagner, now working as receptionist for a large construction company in New York, feel that this was one of the most won- derful and complete days of my life, 0SE!X!!GR 0 f-HSTQRY 19M-19b5 On August 28, 19hh thirty shy Freshman entered LQR-O.H.S. to begin four years of High School.

The games were very well attended and the members did a good job in keeping up the team's spirit at the games. The club was pretty well satisfied with their emblems which are made of blue and white felt with the blue letters L.R.C.HaS. around the circle. Our insignia 'The Demon' is the center. This event made them feel more as if they were members of the club. The cheerleaders this year are Pauline Cook. Dorothy Khntzleman, Nancy Lovell, and Betty Magee.
