MN DEDICATION Although Miss Betty Kundert has been at Lena High School only two years, she has won the trust and admiration of her students because ofher patience, friendliness, kindness, integrity, and devotion to purpose. Her hard work, even during great per- sonal sorrow, has brought her the approbation of both fellow faculty members and students. It is to her that we, the class of nine- teen hundred fifty-three, sincerely and respect- fully dedicate this yearbook. v vw . wmxwf Q swf' -- - aw in Q www' sm, 'K Q wx , .X M- -X S W 8 D1 -- .-my X, .Q L 1,5'34wsnsf+ TABLE GF CONTENTS Administration Seniors Classes Activities Sports Grades Features Advertising .YU N? .Q X wwuNNmuF if Z jf! .4 ' ? ii NWmnfzllG!m A 1 s l ' H John Amm0U, Jr- gfjgrggry ayes Francis Holmes School Board J.

Our officers that year were: Gerald Goethe, presi- dent: Marilyn Prasse, vice president: Ernest Carder, secretary: Gail Fluegel, trea- surer: and Larry Hawes, class representative . Those who survived the initiation gave a return party for the sophomores that fall. Our advisers were Miss Helene Dunn and Mr. Russell Blagg. In our sophomore year, we had the pleasure of initiating the freshmen, who later entertained at a return paty for us. We also gave a one-act play, Sally Takes a Bow. Our officers were: Ernest Carder, president: Carl McNair, vice president: Larry Hawes, secretary: Gerald Goethe, treasurer, and Marilyn Prasse, class rep- resentative. Miss Donker and Mr. Macomber were our advisers. We began the past school year with 35 members led by Marilyn Prasse, presi- dent: Gerald Goethe, vice president: Carl McNair, secretary: Joanne Boeke, trea- surer: and Rita Peters, class repesentative. Mr. Burkhalter and Mrs. Kane were our sponsors. We started the year royally by winning first place in the high school division with our float in the parade at the Fall Festival. We went on to produce success- fully the play, Cheaper by the Dozen, in November. We topped the other classes in sales during the magazine drive. Also, in November we received our class rings. We began to see the climax of our high school years approaching when on May 16 we had the annual prom in honor of the seniors to finish a happy and properous year for the Class of '54. 24 Row l-Anna Mae Phillips, Joyce Carson, Marjorie Kraus, Charlotte Eggemeier, Adrienne Schneider.

That year we elected all boys to be our class officers. They were: Roger Bohm, presidentg Bob Clair, vice president: Lennie Kusie, secretary, Norman Hintz, treasurerg and Jack Parkinson, class representative. Our advisers were Mr. Paul Henry and Miss Helene Dunn. Two of our first activities each year have been our float in the Fall Festival and selling magazines. We became feshman legally when the sophomores tortured us at initiation. In return for this we sponsored a party for them in November. This year we elected as our officers: Adrienne Schneider, president, Norman Hintz, vice presidentg Mary Jean Rampenthal, secretaryg LaVerne Buske, treasurer: and Wendel Kurth, class representative. Miss Hoffman and Mr. Macomber were our advisors. This year the tables were turned-we initiated the freshman and they gave us a return party. The highlight of our year was the one-act play, Billy Buys an Orchid, which we gave at an assembly program in February. 25 Row 1 - Kay Holmes, Sharon Buss, Norma Boeke, Mary Lou Yeager, Evelyn Robieson, Mr. Bogart.

Miss Helene Dunn and Mr. Bogart helped to make our activities successful in the past year. We started the year by making a iioat for the Fall Festival. On September 14, we were initiated by the merciless sophomores and their advisers. In Novem- ber, We sponsored a return party, thanking them for the fun we had had at ini- tiation. A class picnic was held in May. 26 i Row 1-Betty Stees, Marjorie, Kohl, Lois Foy.

Annalis In September, the editor, assistant editor, and business manager-Vernon Kar- natz, Patricia Bohm, and Jerry Jacoby-were chosen to head the ANNALIS staff. First, the seniors started a campaign to sell advertising. This was done under the direction of Jerry. Jerry had charge of the distribution in May also. Next, work was started on the yearbook itself with Miss Kundert supervising. Committees were selected to select a theme and to write the class prophecy. Pat, with the help of Yvonne Spinhirne and Lois Foy, worked on the layout while Vernon, aided by Robert Rodda, wrote the copy. In January, the pictures were taken and the yearbook was completed in March. After this it was printed and bound. The printed copies were received in May and distributed, thus completing the seniors' biggest project of the year-the 1953 ANNALIS. They all hope you will enjoy looking at it and reading it. 28 if 45 'wr Robert Gallagher, Miss Donker, Dennis Sherman, Joanne Boeke, Vernon Karnatz, Elaine Brott, Nancy York, Dolores Stadel, Norman Hintz, Patricia Bohm.

Student Advisory Committee In the beginning of the year as the classes chose their oilicers, the presidents and representativs of these groups automatically became members of an organ- ization known as the Student Adviso-ry Committee. This group in turn chose its officers who were: Robert Gallagher, president, and Marilyn Prasse, secretary. Mr. Gassman was the adviser. The Committee's purpose is to provide an opportunity for students to parti- cipate in the development of school rules affecting them and to provide for co- ordination between the various classes and faculty. The Committee has helped to set up noon-hour recreation, to keep the school clean, and to improve the morale and sportsmanship among the students. The group is affiliated with state and national committees. 30 Joane Boeke, Evelyn Fluck, Yvonne Spinhirne, Carol Lapp, Joann Simmons Elaine Brott, Ruth Ann Gartner, Miss Dunn, Mary Lou Otte. librarians The school library is accessible to students at any time the study hall is open and, because of this fact, the operation of this 2,804-volume library is de- pendent upon student cooperation. Under the supervision of Miss Mary Dunn, eight girls voluntarily acted as librarians. These girls returned books and magazines to their proper places, made out overdue-book lists, took care of the bulletin boards in the library, saw that books needing repair were given to Miss Dunn, and kept the library in good order in general. They all deserve credit for a job well done. 31 Junior Band Baton Twirlers Senior Band Instrumental Music The Lena High School Band, under the direction of Mr. Macomber, had 43 members. The band received new uniforms this year. They performed in the annual Christmas program, music festival, and at the Memorial Day services. The band also played with the Pearl City Band, at the 1atter's invitation, at the County Basketball Tournament. They played at the Stephenson County Fair with other schools in this area. Some of the members voluntarily formed a band which played at all home basketball games under the student director, Patricia Bohm. Several members went to the district and state music contests. Again this year there were a large number of baton twirlers who performed between basketball games and marched with the band in the Memorial Day parade.

It concerned an unexpected visit from the eccentric Uncle Fred, producing hilarious, though disastrous consequences for nephew Pongo and his friend Crumpet.

Junior Class Play The Junior class presented their play, Cheaper By The Dozen, on November 7 and 8. The play concerned the reminiscences of Ernestine and Frank about their father, Frank Gilbreth, an efficiency expert, and his older daughters as they tried to make him let them dress like other girls and go out on dates. It portrayed Anne, the eldest daughter, as she came to the realization of why her father wanted to hurry the children through school: he knew he would not live much longer. The play, directed by Miss Jeanne Donker, was ably given and well re- ceived by the audiences. Mr. Gilbreth ............ Mrs. Gilbreth ................ Ernestine, one of the dozen ....

Grade Basketball IX X4 Q1 Senior Class History September, 1949, the month school opened, found 38 freshies wandering around Lena High School looking for more education and new adventure. With the help of Miss Helene Dunn and Mr. Blagg, we chose our officers for the year. They were: Zondra Klaas, president: Nancy York, vice president: Larry Krusie, secretary: Donald Diestelmeier, treasurer: and Patricia Bohm, class rep- resentative. In September, we were initiated by the merciless sophomores and, on a later date, we entertained them at a return party. That year Shirley Starr was our representative on the cheerleading squad and Patricia Bohm was the top salesman during the all-school magazine sales campaign. Forty-three in number, we entered our sophomore year as full-fledged mem- bers of L. H. S. We elected as our officers: Lorraine Griswold, president: Betty Stees, vice president: Robert Gallagher, secretary: Larry Krusie, treasurer: and Gayle Borchardt, class representative. Miss Donker and Mr. Macomber were our loyal advisers. Our initiation of the freshmen was an act of treachery, but they gave us a very nice return party in spite of it. Again our class took top honors in magazine sales. Another member of our class, Gayle Borchardt, served as a cheerleader. We presented Prom Date as our first dramatic attempt. In 1951, 32 juniors began the year by voting Robert Gallagher, president: Larry Krusie, vice president: Gayle Borchardt, secretary: Patricia Bohm, treas- urer and Lorraine Griswold, class representative. Under the helpful guidance of Mrs. Kane and Mr. Parkinson, our class re- ceived top honors on our float in the Fall Festival parade. In November, Huckle- berry Finn was presented with great success. All that money came in handy when we sponsored the junior-senior banquet and prom on May 17. Everyone worked very hard to make the theme, Stairway to the Stars, glitter to the top step. After summer vacation, everyone was glad to start with the long-waited-for title of Seniors. Thirty-two members returned to the flock with Miss Mary Dunn and Miss Kundert as our advisors. Again we named Robert Gallagher to be our president to be assisted by Patricia Bohm, vice president: Betty Stees, secretary: Larry Krusie, treasurer: and Joann Simmons, class representative. In the beginning of our busy year we elected the ANNALIS staff, naming Vernon Karnatz, editor: Patricia Bohm, assistant editor: and Gerald Jacoby, business manager. During the fall we sold candy to raise money. The students and faculty were happy to present the D. A. R. award to Patricia Bohm. Uncle Fred Flits By was presented on April 17 and 18. One fine spring day the school seemed unusually quiet-the seniors had gone on skip day. We selected maroon and silver as our class colors. Our class flower was a silver-white carnation. The past forever gone, the future still our own'-' was chosen as the class motto. Every senior looked forward with gladness, and yet a feeling of regret, for after May 24 Lena High School would not be ours, but its memories will always be held dear to us all. 60 Class Prophecy Janet Ferguson hurried to the Tallahassee ofllce of Jerry Jacoby, the most prominent psychiatrist of 1973. She was met in the outer office by one of the wor1d's most renouned male nurses, Vernon Karnatz. As she relaxed on the couch she told Dr. Jacoby of her recent experiences. During her latest trip to Paris for her ballet lessons from Allen Mayer, she had met Vivian Carter, a chorus girl on Bob Rodda's TV show. The show had just finished an engagement at Carol Lapp's night club, the Eartharena. Vivian reported that she was currently reading a book on building muscles which had been published by Mr. America, Duane Buss. Before Janet boarded her plane for home, a tall blonde man caught her eye. Suddenly she realized that it was Dick Wilkening. Janet learned that he was in Paris to procure some of Jacques Fath's Unoriginals for Sears, Roebuck and Company, of which he is president. The pilot of the plane on which Janet returned home was none other than Joann Simmons who told her of the planned trip to the moon sponsored by Dolores Stadel and Yvonne Spinhirne, two planet enthusiasts. Jo was to be the pilot of the space ship being designed by the noted scientist, Joyce Niesman. In the waiting room of the Tallahassee airport, Janet met Carolyn Kuhlemeyer who was just leaving for Australia where she has been working on the devel- opment of a new strain of kangaroos. Carolyn had lieen visiting Nancy York, fat lady with a circus in Sarasota. She told Janet that Nancy's sideshow tent was next to Eugene Jogerst's who was famous as Vitchy Throat Sam, the sword swallower. Before leaving the airpo-rt, Janet bought a copy of the Tallahassee Tribune, a newspaper edited by Eddie Beyer. Glaring at her were the headlines, PA'I'I'Y ESCAPES AGAIN. As she read on Janet found that Patty referred to Pat Bohm, who had just escaped for the eighth time from the Women's Reformatory in Phoenix. She was aided in her escape by Betty Stees and Marge Kohl, bookies for a racketeer in Kentucky. Janet stepped into a waiting taxi which was, much to her surprise, driven by Lorraine Griswold. She instructed Lorraine to take her to the best dentist in Tallahassee. As she sped to the oflice of Duane Wybourn, Lorraine tried to run a red light. Tearing down the street from the opposite direction came Larry Krusie in his Studebaker Jetmobile. With one horrible crunch the two cars came to a stop, spilling all three occupants on the street. Immediately a Copper appeared on the scene. He was, of all people, Darrell Lapp who listened intently to both sides of the story before ordering them to appear in court the next morn- ing. Larry was a test driver for the Studebaker Corporation but had gotten off the testing grounds accidentally. As they were talking Bob Gallagher, who was an undertaker by trade, came strolling dcwn the sidewalk. It looked as if Bob was hunting for business because accidents were the only way people died since Don Diestelmeier and Lois Foy had developed their new life-preserving pill. Dave Finkenblnder, now a minister, had written an article in LOOK maga- zine denouncing these pills for he thought the Good Lord should be the only one to preserve one's life. Leroy Shadle's picture was on the cover of the issue containing Dave's article. Leroy had been picked as the outstanding father of the year. He had been married nine years and was the father of twelve children. After saying good-bye to Jerry and Vemon, Janet walked down the street, her self-confidence restored. She thought: oh well, it takes all kinds of people to make a world! 61 Last Will and Testament Marvin Beyer, do will my heighth to Jack Borchardt.
