Since much of the expense of the production depends upon advertisements, some of the boys spent most of their leisure time contacting various business men of Lodi and neighboring villages. Others on the annual staff spent their time writing various articles about the organiza- tions, activities and classes. Our Assistant Editor-in-Chief, wrote the class history, class will, prophecy and super- vised the writing of the feature articles. Our fine Art editor has added a great deal to the spice and novelty of our annual. Every one has really pitched in and helped to get our annual to press at the proper time. 848- 950O O2 Years of Qwiee Pade Protection Ohio Farmers Insurance Company CHARTERED 18:48 Ohio Farmers Indemnity Company LeRoy, Ohio sanfer d School Board Joe Seifert Kenneth Indoe Clerk President Kathleen Mabry Treva Grimm Patricia Dearth, Office Girl Sisterville High School, West Virginia Board of Education, West Virginia Faculty : s W.

Yes, we the Seniors, on that fateful day in September, 1938, began our career at this “hall of knowledge.’ Although there were twentyfive of us that first year only nine of us remain: Laura Cash, Junior Dague, Lois Gorey, Larry House, Philip Norton, Pete Reynolds, Dale Sanford, Paul Shriver, and Joyce Underwood. Pauline Straub joined us in April of our first year. As most first grader’s go, we were no exception. Miss Delong, our teacher, probably had quite a time keeping us under control. Time flew, and so did we. Harold McGrady and Bill Bittner joined us in the second grade. Under Mrs. Whit- ney's direction we actually learned to write. Our grade cards came out that May and we found that we all had passed! The next year Miss Dressler was our educator. Gordon Warnes joined our ranks. The more the merrier, it seemed. During the next three years there were no additions but plenty of excitement. We kept Miss Clinker very busy iaking us to the cloak room in the fourth grade. Under Miss Edwards in the fifth grade and Miss Blust in the sixth grade we had parties and gave quite a few plays. After stress and strain, (either with the students or the teachers), we finally arrived in High School. We were probably as arrogant as they come, but then who had a better right? Weren't we seventh graders now? Miss Wise was our Homeroom teacher. Kathy Smith added herself to our collection and we were off into what seemed a “strange” world: changing classes, no recesses, and plenty of work. During our eighth grade with Miss Joanne Rice as our sponsor we had two newcomers: Ryta Derhammer and Milo Aukerman. Our Class really grew in our fresh- man year. Howard Farnsworth, Lorene Shaw, Miriam Szikula, Sally White and Vivian Wightman joined us from Lafayette. Dale Sanford who left us in the third grade returned this year also. Mrs. Schafer supervised us that year. We hear that she had to take a rest that summer. Our sophomore year, we got to roll- ing toward making money for our Junior- Senior Banquet. With Miss Jones as our homeroom advisor, we sponsored a magazine sale and had a concession at the Lodi Fall Fair and at the baseball games that summer. Mr. Egger saw us through our junior year, and oh, what a year that was! Barbara Beebe joined us and has the honor to be the last one to enter our class. Under the direction of Miss Garver we gave the play “Student Queen.” We also sponsored a Penny Carnival and most important of all gave a Junior-Senior Banquet. At last came the year we were all working for: 1949-50. We are a class of 22 now. Each morning we have from two to four flights of stairs to climb to our abode: room 2]. Miss Sechrist has the great privilege of being our home- room teacher. Were really so good she has no trouble at all. Our Senior Class play, ‘Don't Keep Him Waiting,” was really “hot” and I do mean “hot.” Because of the curtain’s lying on a spotlight it caught on fire in the 3rd act. Everyone on stage got sprayed by Mr. Wood who was putting out the fire with the extinguisher. But the play went on. It was grand fun. Our two projects for the year are the annual and a class trip. Each morning we are fully awakened in government class by Mr. Wood's loud ties and original (?) jokes. Yes, in May we will leave good old LHS but with us we'll take knowledge and pleasant memories, something which can never be taken from us. We hope we have “given” as well as “taken.” Youll hear from the Class of S0.” Who knows what fame and fortune lurks in the future for us? The Last Will and Testament of The Class of 1950 We, the Senior Class of 1950, being in our best (?) mental condition, do solemnly swear this to be our last will and testament. We, the party of the first part, do bequeath the following persons and real property, to the parties of the second part herein named. ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE SECTION I We, the members of the Senior Class, leave the school—(Draw your own conclusions). To Mr. Wood we leave a new book of °1000 Jokes” for next year’s government class. To Mr. Skurvid we leave a life insurance policy just in case his next year’s driver’s class decides a ditch is better than a road. To Miss Sechrist we leave a bottle of aspirins. To the remainder of the faculty we leave many pleasant (?) memories. To the Junior Class we leave a compiled volume of the Senior: Class’s favorite parking spots, just in case. To the Sophomore Class we bequeath a book “How To Make A Lot of Money Quick.” To the Freshman Class we will our pleasantness for future use. SECTION II Milo Aukerman wills his ability to get along with girls to Don Sterzer and hopes he has better luck. Barbara Beebe leaves her quietness to Janice Ripley. Bill Bittner wills his ability to talk all the teachers into things to Jacky Gossard. Make good use of it, Jack. Laura Cash leaves her ability to make Mr. Skurvid blush to anyone who would like to try it. Junior Dague leaves his ability to get to school just after the tardy bell rings to Chick Ivie who already has a good start. Ryta Derhammer wills her great height to Ethel Maye Schaefer just in case hers runs out. Howard Farnsworth leaves his wavy hair to Bill Gossard to help his butch haircut. ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE ARTICLE XXII SECTION II (Continued from Page 21) Lois Gorey wills her tact with the teachers to anyone else who thinks they can get away with it. Larry House wills his secluded spot in the hall to Jim Crum to help him get over his bashfulness. Pete Reynolds wills his trumpet-playing ability to Don Sanford with hopes that eventually Don might make first chair. Harold McGrady wills his four front teeth to anyone who hap- pens to work as hard (?) at athletics as he did. He also wills his . pleasing laugh to Curly Weagratf and hopes that he might gain a sense of humor. Philip-Norton leaves his braces to Joan Kindig in case hers wear out. Lorene Shaw leaves her EXPERT driving ability to Mary Chap- man with lots of luck. Paul Shriver wills his little green “Ford” to anyone who wants to rent it. Kathy Smith leaves her hair to Sally Blackburn and her great talking ability to Irene Farnsworth and hopes Irene has good luck with it. Pauline Straub wills her job as score-keeper to Anita Indoe and hopes Anita will enjoy being an official as‘much as she did. Joyce Underwood wills her time-keepers job to anyone that wants it. Miriam Szikula wills her giggle to Dora Zimmerman. It seems we don't hear too much from Dodie. Dale Sanford wills his weight and build to Stanley Debro to help Stan next football season. Sally White leaves her typing ability to Norman Reusch to help him out. Vivian Wightman wills her blond hair to Sandra Underwood so that Sandy might look like Janie Powell. Gordon Warnes wills his expert mathematical ability to Bernard Whitmore. Gordon hopes it will help Bernard next year in physics. The above stated is the last will and testament of the Class of 1950, witnessed and signed this loth day of May in the year of our Lord, 1950. Signed: Senior Class of 1950 Witnesses: W. S. Wood Gladys Sechrist Class Prophecy Throughout the millions of years that life has been on earth men have done many note- worthy deeds. I am old Father Time and it has been my privilege to see all of these miracu- lous feats but this year of 1965 has presented to me the most extraordinary exploit that man has ever undertaken. During the winter of 1964-65, the world- famous physicist, Prof. Gordon C. Warnes, astounded the science-conscious world with his invention of a super-jet rocket ship which would travel to other planets at very rapid speeds. This was a follow-up of his Nobel Prize winning machine which was designed to do people's walking for them. After a conference with Pauline Straub, who incidentally is the first woman President of. the United Nations, it was decided that the first planetary rays would be taken to Pluto and after much deliberation it was decided to take the entire L. H. S. class of 1950 on this trip so that some start could be made to populate this yet-unpopulated planet. With Junior-Jet-Dague as pilot of this space ship, this distinguished group of citizens pro- ceeded to their destination to set up a new colony that will be as long remembered as the Jamestown or Plymouth settlements. Passing through the celestial heavens for a period of two weeks, this group of pioneers finally landed on Pluto during the summer of 1965. Immediately upon arriving they founded the new city of Lido (Lodi inside out). Just to give you an idea of the life on this planet let's look around and see how the rest of the class has flourished during this project. Because Harold McGrady was not allowed to drive in Lodi he set up the Lido transporta- tion system, which has been appropriately called the Loonyville Trolley. The two champion Lady wrestlers who have attracted universal attention are Joyce “Tex” Underwood and Vivian “Tiny” Wightman. The most recent best seller was a lengthy novel written by Ryta Derhammer. The name of this manuscript is: ‘Forever Ryta.” Laura Cash has made a name for herself as a songwriter. Her latest Hit was rated No. | on the Pluto Hit Parade. This ditty, dedicated to Howard since she left the other world is en- titled “I’m Up In The Air Over You.” All government classes on Pluto are now under the instruction of THE Prof. Howard F. Farnsworth, whose record in high school speaks for itself. Keeping in tune with the old adage ‘There's a sucker born every minute,’ another sucker, Bill Bittner, is now running a circus which features some of the greatest freaks of all- time. Bill also doubles as side show barker. His biggest attractions include, Kathy Smith, who is now the fattest lady in the universe, Miriam Szikula, who is the most whistled at hula girl on Pluto and Paul-Itchy-Shriver, who now owns the most versatile flea circus known to man. Incidentally, Lois Gorey has been hired as a trained nurse for Paul's pets. Another of his main attractions is Bqrbara Beebe, the only woman knife thrower on Pluto. Her accuracy is said to be so great that she has now opened up a barber shop on the side. Pete Reynolds, is now engaged in a unique occupation. Putting forth all the energy he can summon, he now is a tester for a mattress company. The sports conscious members of the newly explored planet have been amazed recently by the brilliant pitching record of Satchmo Aukerman, who has compiled a record of 53 straight wins as a pitcher for Lido Lions. The amazing part of this record is the fact that these wins have included at least one from each of the 5 planets now inhabited. The Smart Susie Sweater Shop, managed by Sally White, is known to have the most ex- clusive collection of sweaters known to man. Her success is no doubt due to her very early collection. Proclaimed as the most useful and informa- tional book of the century is the new book by Phillip Norton. This book entitled ‘Prominent Parking Places on Pluto,” has been a boon to the romeos of the world. Janitor of the new Lido School is Larry House. It has been claimed that Larry is wearing out the broom handles faster than the brooms. That excessive weight on the handles all the time no doubt has something to do with it. Atlas has nothing on Dale Sanford. You've heard how Atlas lifted the world on his shoulders; well, while Atlas holds the world on his shoulders Dale picks Atlas up, and is able to hold him there for long periods of time. Lorene Shaw has finally come through with a'new delicacy for the diners here on Pluto. It's a modernization of the U. S. hot dog, but up in Pluto they call them “Hot Plutos.” Well, now you know why I said that this was a spectacular undertaking and probably never again will it happen.

Any Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, or Senior is eligible to become a member of the Mixed Chorus. The Mixed Chorus meets every Monday under the direction of Mrs. Mildred Hobart.
