This was our class. Although the first week seemed a little frightening, we began to settle down as we found our way around. Of primary importance to us was our first class meeting where we met our advisors who would lead us through the year. They were Miss Denton, Mrs. Doyle, Mrs. Christensen, Mr. Hagen and Mr. White. They helped us to organize and elect our officers. We chose Jack Hartley to be our presi- dent, James Shepard, vice president, Joan Bishop, secretary, and Wellington Miller, treasurer. To rep- resent us on the Student Council we selected Laurie MacGregor and Jim White. During the year we led two pep meetings to encourage school spirit. We also had several candy sales to add to our treasury for the big projects which lay ahead. All of us pitched in and helped on our float to enter in the competition on Home- coming night. Joan Bishop was chosen to represent the freshmen on the Queen's Court. Later we spon- sored a class dance and decorated a tree for the Christmas Program. We closed the school year with a picnic at Fallas- burg Park and a swimming party. We were all happy when our summer vacation came around, but by September of 1955, everyone was eager to begin our sophomore year in high school. We were more sure of ourselves as we entered our second year. After the scurry of new classes, new friends and new teachers, we began to settle down. Our advisors for this year were Mrs. Christensen, Mr. Hagen, Mrs. Doyle, Mr. White and Miss Denton. Our class officers helped to get our projects rolling. President this year was Joan Bishop. The others were Kerry Shoemaker, vice president, Sandra Bo- zung, secretary, and Jack Hartley treasurer, Dan Himebaugh and Frances Tilstra were chosen to repre- sent us on the Student Council. The first big project of the year was the Home- coming fioat. The chairman and committees devoted a great deal of time and energy to it and we won a second prize in the competition. Sheila Olin was the representative on the Queen's Court. Selling fire extinguishers was supposed to be our money-making project but we lost money on it, and it taught us a lesson, if nothing else. We also spon- sored a square dance in March. Again we concluded the year with a picnic and swimming. ln the crisp, colorful autumn, we returned to school and this time we were juniors - 114 of us in fact. How elated we felt to be upperclassmen! Mr. White, Mr. Hagen, Mrs. Christensen, Mrs. Lampen, and Mrs. B. Mullen became our new advisors. Dan Hime- baugh led the junior class as president. Margaret Court was vice president, Sheila Olin, secretary, and Ron Wood, treasurer. Joan Bishop and Jim White were our Student Council Representatives. As juniors, we were more active in student events than ever before. We entered a float in the Home- coming parade and Sandra Bozung was chosen to ride on the fioat with the Queen's Court. During the year, we sponsored two dances and a pep meeting. ln November, members of the play cast began to get last minute jitters before our production of Three Fingers in the Door, directed by Mrs. P. Mullen. Our junior play was the first to be held in the new Runciman Elementary Building. We worked hard, had a lot of fun and the play was a big suc- cess. ln March all the juniors were fiashing their new class rings around, which we had waited so long for. We sent four candidates to the Penny Carnival Queen's Court. Margaret Court was chosen to reign over the carnival, and Sheila Olin, Sandra Bozung and Judith Ellis were our representatives. For the first time that year we had an exchange student in our school, Elke Gildhoff, from Hamburg, Germany. And, for the first time, we were allowed to send a student from our school to Europe. The six candidates were Joan Bishop, Sandra Bozung, Margaret Court, Judith Ellis, Jack Hartley, and Ann Stirling Mullen. After interviewing them, the faculty chose Joan to be Lowell's ambassador abroad and Ann as her alternate. Our class had a car wash to help Joan finance her trip and before we knew it, she was off to Rem- scheid, Germany, to stay with a family there for the summer. South Sea lslands was the setting for the Junior- Senior Prom. The banquet was held in the All-Pur- pose Room and a program followed. After that, the juniors, seniors, and their dates went over to the beautifully decorated gymnasium to dance to the music of the Yellow Jackets . The palm trees and colorful murals set the mood for a memorable eve- ning. To conclude the school year, we all got together for a picnic at Fallasburg Park with the other classes. Everyone was ready to return for our last and most important year. At last we were seniors! For this we had been waiting for a long time. Being seniors, we felt, was the most exciting part of our high school careers. Of course, more work was expected by our teachers and many of us began to feel an enthusiasm for knowledge as we learned more about the mastery of subject matter. To advise us in this important year were Mrs. Lampen, Mrs. B. Mullen, Mr. Hagen and Mr. White. The officers which we had chosen were Jim White, president, Bob White, vice president, Margaret Court, secretary, and Al Weigele, treasurer. To represent us on the Student Council were Dan Himebaugh and Sheila Olin. As usual, clubs, new and old were being organ- ized, we met new friends and participated in more class activities. The seniors took charge of the Home- coming preparations. Committees were formed to take care of our float, halftime ceremonies and the dance. Sandra Bozung was chosen by the class to be our lovely Homecoming Queen. Senior girls on her court were Frances Tilstra, Margaret Court and Joan Bishop. Dan Himebaugh served as Master of Ceremonies during the halftime program. The next proiect which the seniors undertook was our play, Onions in the Stew, directed by Mrs. Roth. With a lot of talent and just plain hard work, our cast, crew and committees gave an excellent production and everyone loved it! To raise some money for our class trip, we sold boxes of taffy and sponsored a dance after one ol the basketball games. In December, iust before the holidays, the seniors gave a Christmas program and decorated a tree. After Christmas vacation, a bumper crop of ac- tivities were coming up thick and fast. There was the Penny Carnival which the senior class sponsored under the direction of Bonita Bryan. We had a lot of fun and earned a substantial sum which helped finance our senior trip. We were the guests of the iuniors at the Prom in May. They prepared a banquet for us that was both attractive and delicious, and entertained us with a memorable program. After the Junior-Senior Prom was the Alumni Dance which gave us the op- portunity to visit with former graduates who had gone on to new jobs and college. Then came the senior trip, and our last big fling before finishing school. Now we are nearing graduation from high school. We have had so many wonderful times together! For many of us this represents the big break from school and families which has, up to this time, given us guidance ond security. We hope that we can make everyone proud of us. CLASS PROPHECY By Bonita Bryan The year is l968, and my profession is an in- vestigator on the Court of Desperate Last Resort. I am sitting in my office, and the telephone rings: It is the Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court, Marlin Bigelowp he has asked me to fly to Washington, D. C. right away on important busi- ness. I arrived in Washington early in the morning, so I went on a sight seeing tour. In the Library of Congress, I found Representative Pete HcPherson crawling among the shelves furiously looking for a flaw in the Constitution. I spoke to him, and for a while we debated old times so to speak . Pete told me that Margaret Backstrom is happily married and is still living on Vergennes. Pete also said that Sheila Olin is married to a very famous dentist. He mentioned the fact that James Shepard was running a very strong competition to Kroger with his Shepard Safety Super Markets. It seems that he has one- way aisles, with stop lights, and his police force consists of James Godfrey, David Bolt, Bruce Stark- weather, and Myrl Sudclarth. I was late, so I left Pete and hurried to the Su- preme Court Building. There, in the secrecy of her office, Marlin's secretary Kathy Kyser told me the de- tails. Since his graduation, Brian Estes has been lead- ing a rather shady life, and now he has been tried for a Federal offense. With his two henchmen, David Garbo Hammer, and Richard Poosie Connors, he was convicted for robbing the overland stagecoach on the back eighty acres of Disneyland. I pondered the situation for a moment, and then accepted the offer of proving that the three were innocent! The first thing I did was to get an airplane ticket to Grand Rapids, Michigan. As I sat on the airplane, I noticed that the stewardesses were Mari- lyn Green and Gloria Clemence. I landed at the Daniel Himebaugh International Airport iust outside the city. I hired a taxi, it was being driven by Rich- ard Rutherford. I asked him to take me to Lowell. We whizzed through four red lights, and ran down six pedestrians before he recognized me. Dick told me that he was just substituting for Bill Covert who was on a safari in deepest Africa. When I brought up the Estes gang, he quickly changed the subiect. He told me of some of the changes made in Lowell. Tony Stormzand now owns ta used car lot, and he is quite upset about the teen- agers stealing spinners! Also, Frances Tilstra is operating an escort bureau for lonely hearts. I no- ticed a new building and Dick said that it was Vincent Jeluso's Peninsula, he olso owns the one in Grand Rapids. The new factory, Dick explained belonged to Tom Kauffman. He is the worId's largest No-Nod manufacturer. We arrived at the High School. Don Dawson, head coach, Danny Conrad, history teacher, Ann Alexan- der, music teacher, and Frances Burtle, commercial teacher met me at the door where they were wash- ing windows. I went inside where I was surprised to find th-at the principal was Ron Wood. At that mo- ment he had young Stephen Nesbit in his office reading him the Riot Act on school policies. I gathered all the information I could about my case and went looking for a hotel. I found one by the name of the DeGood-German Inn, owned and op- erated by Don and Doris. In the dining room the waitresses were Marjorie Rinard and Marion Wride. As I tried to eat my dinner, Jens Yde's imported Danish Jazz Band disturbed me but not half as much as Sue Hunter walking from table to table saying cigars, cigarettes , for an excuse to talk to her, I purchased a Corona cigar. I noticed that they were manufactured in Havana, Cuba by the Robert Minnie Cigar and Tobacco Company. In my conversation with Sue, she told me that Joan VanStee was on the beach at Hawaii, teaching the Hula to Tom Bur- gers six daughters land he wanted boys, tough luck, Tomi. After my dinner, I decided to see a movie, but when I read that Elvis was to be at the Strand in person, I decided to attend. When the show was over, I went backstage to see him. Instead, I got an interview with his wife, the for-mer Ann Mullen. She said that she was enioying her new life immensely. She has been traveling all over the world and she said that she had seen Brian Estes in Paris a year ago sneaking out of a lowly French nightclub, followed by two men resembling Stan Wingeier and Alfred Weigele. On a lead like that, I hopped the first trans-conti- nental out of G. R. and was off across the Atlantic. While flying above the ocean, I noticed a life boat and waving from it were two very strange humans. The liner landed on pontoons and picked up the men. They were multimillionaires Jim Adrianse and Dave Carpenter. The story they told was that Kerry Shoemaker, their pilot, was flying them to Italy to the auto races. The plane had to be ditched in bad weather and Kerry had started to swim to Europe. Two days later we picked him up off the coast of France still doing a very fast dog paddle. When the plane landed in Paris, I felt a sense of danger and intrigue. Then I noticed the d-anger . . . Bob and Jim White were dragging a small French car with their Big M , right down the run- way and they were headed straight for me. I yelled at them as they passed, but all Bob said was What? . They left me in a cloud of dust with lquotel the other car miles behindl. Unquote. I decided to walk to my hotel because it was such a beautiful day. As I neared the Eiffel Tower I noticed a large crowd gathered at the base of it. I asked a Frechman what the trouble was and he grumbled something about American tourists. Then I spotted Margaret Court in the crowd. I asked her what was wrong and between hysterical laughs she told me that Sandy Bozung had her foot stuck in the elevator, and at any minute could plunge to her death. Just then a strange thing happened. The Legion to the rescue! A group of French Foreign Legion came charging out of the East. The Captain, Jack Gallant Hartley, and Sargeant, James Gar- cia Hall were leading the rescue mission, followed by a trusty band of recruits consisting of Howard Heintzelman, George Henderson, and Russ Hyser, closing in fast. In no time at all Sandy was safe. She explained to me that she was touring Europe with Shirley Engen, Joan Bishop, Norma Wieland -and Joann Wissman. I left them and continued my search for vital evi- dence in the acquittal of my clients. So far I have found out that on the night of June 7, l967, Brian and his henchmen were in Paris and nowhere near Disneyland. But now I needed proof. I traced them to the lowly French nightclub the DeVol, run by Allen. As I entered it, I saw Judi Ellis singing a torchy French ballad while Marvin VanTimmeron and Judie Hill danced an Apache Dance. At that moment pri- vate deteotive, Ron Reynhout, came through the door in a trench coat with a hat fully covering his face. He looked very rugged, and I left before any trouble started. The next morning, while walking down the left bank, I noticed in the artists booth that Marcia Gold- ner and Loretta Williams were busy working. At the book stalls, there were two books that caught my eye. The first by Julie Frahm, entitled Confes- sions of a Maiorette , the other, a collaboration by Stewart Thomet, and John Laux, How to Save Two Million Dollars on Tax Evasion . I understand they wrote it while on a vacation at a resort hotel in Illinois, called Joliet. I decided to go on a shopping tour because I have always wanted an original Paris gown by the top designer Gerald lknown to us as Trumblel. As I entered the salon, I watched a fashion show. His models were the American imports Imogene Over- holt, Sharon Kauffman, Zeta Byrne, and Mary Alex- ander. His salesmen were very suave connoisseurs of fashion, Leonard Venneman, Leon Wenger, Albert Zigmont, and Lloyd Rosenberger. After fieecing me for all my ready cash on the purchases of clothing, I went to the bank for ex- change American money. Where Lee Vanderwarf was head cashier for the Chase Manhatten French Branch. That night I had a very mysterious caller. That person signed a confession and I had all the evi- dence I needed. The next morning I flew back to the States. In the plane, I was surprised to find that the pilots were that great flying team, Wayne and Bill Miller. I sat next to Sandra Krick. She was iust returning from a vacation, and was returning to her iob in a large New York department store. She got off the plane at La Guardia, and I stayed on until I came to Washington. As I stepped off the plane, reporters ran over and began asking questions about the Estes case. One of the reporters was Charles Nead, correspondent for the Lowell Ledger. I told them I had my evidence and could get my client acquitted. The FBI had supplied a car for me to get me to the Supreme Court Building. I was guarded by Ken Thuston, Ken was carrying a switchblade and had been taught how to use it. CNOW he doesn't cut him- self when working in Governmentl. Our motor cycle escort was Ace Fairchild, also with the FBI. About three miles from the airport, there was a large crash and I was sent through the windshield of the car. When I awoke, I was laying in a bed in a hospital and Harriet Phillips, head nurse at the Wash- ington Receiving Hospital, was standing by me. I asked what had happened, she said that Bill Fluger was looking at a line of girls and had failed ot see our five car cavalcade. Then my doctor, Dan Koet- sier, came in the roomy he was reading a book, How to Calm Your Nerves Before Brain Surgery. When I became well enough to walk, I made a tour of the hospital. In a private room filled with flowers, I found Roselynne Stahl. She is a very fam- ous speaker, and was suffering from laryngitis. After I left the hospital, my main obiective was still the Supreme Court and the Estes acquittal. That day in court was one to remember. The confession was read, and as usual, the boys were set free with only a lecture. As I stepped into the elevator I told the elevator boy, John Schroder, Main Floor . Going down I began to reflect the last week I had come in contact with class of '58 all of the seven days. I only hoped that in ten more years I could again see every one of them!

ONIONS IN THE STEW Onions in the Stew a three act play by Betty MacDonald was presented by the senior class on November Ql and 22, directed by Mrs. Roth with the help of Judith Ellis and John Laux. The story takes place on Vashion Island in Puget Sound, where the MacDonald family has just moved from Seattle. Betty CBonita Bryant, and Don iPete lvlcPhersonJ, are very happy about their new home, but their teen- age daughters, Joan Clvlargaret Courti and Anne lKathy Kyserb resent being just one of the islanders. Anne wants to move back to the city where she can see her boyfriend Uack l-lartleyi, but soon she meets Roger iKerry Shoemakerj. Joan's steady boyfriend, Claude CTony Stormzandi keeps turning up whenever he isn't wanted. Many amusing incidents happen all through the play. First, the refrigerator, which is be- ing moved by rowboats, is carried away by the tide. Then a snow storm keeps the Mac Donalds confined to the house with only squash and cat food. On top of all that, Joan comes downstairs one afternoon with bleached hair, because all sensational sing-- ers have platinum curls. Leslie CSheila Olini intoduces Miss Garvey lAnn Stirling Mullenj to the MacDonalds because she is interested in purchasing the house for the Senior Citi- zen's Foundation. While they are thinking it over, they realize that they have all invited guests for the same week-end By the time the week-end is nearly over, the MacDonalds have all decided that they want to stay at their home on the island more than anything else.

JUNICR PLAY This year the juniors presented the warm family comedy Cheaper By the Dozen by Frank Gilbreth, Jr., cmd Ernestine Gilbreth Carey. Lloyd Norwood played the time-saving, tyrannical father who had twelve energetic and fun-loving children. He and Mrs. Gilbreth CSandra Currani particularly had trouble with the older girls, Anne iSylvia Dyk- hiuzeni, Ernestine iMarsha Verpsoori and Martha iMartha Stiffi who had such nonsensical boy friends as Joe Scales Kllay Jonesi and such nice ones as Larry Uim Williamsi. The rest of the children, who all had very definite and outstanding personalities, kept the play moving at a hilariously fast pace. Bill CFrank Myersi, was positively appalled by love and Dan iFrank Poisali had love only for his dog. Frank CRoger Rowlandi was always teasing his sisters and Fred Uohn Arehartl spoke magnificent German in the bathtub. Of course the youngest children Lillian CMartha Wittenbachi and Jackie iRex Dowlingi were busy with lollipops, yo-yos and childish pranks. The remaining characters in the play - and truly they were characters - were Mrs. Fitzgerald CBetsy McPhersoni the lovable but eccentric old housekeeper, Dr. Burton CTerry Shepardi the typically frank, old-fashioned doctor, and Miss Brill CKay Snowi the spinster school teacher who did not love children. The Gilbreth family and friends were a great success! 46 Back row: Wally Buttrick, Guy Watrous, Galen Pletcher, John Wakefield, Dick Buttrick, Ronald Row- land, Steve Fritz, Jim Vanden Hout, Gene Walter, Terry Shepard, Lawrence Martin, Larry Kaiser, Eddie Ridgeway.

BAND The Senior and Junior bands have had many combined activities this year in a fund raising efifort for the purchase of new Senior Band uniforms. We sold programs at the football games, sold fruit cakes lxefore Christmas, and conducted a two month candy sale, and sponsored the District Seven High Solo and Fnsemble Festival on February l5th, and with the help of band parents, served lunches and sold candy and pop at the festival. We raised over SlOO0.00 this year on these activities, The bands combined for a fall concert with the Tonette Class and the Varsity Choir, playing various types of music including Christmas selections. The Junior Band marched for the Halloween parade, The Senior Band, as usual, played for Showboat and Amateur night last summer, marched for all home football games, played for all pep meetings, and furnished a pep band for basketball games. Both bands went to the district festivals and both re- ceived excellent ratings from all concert judges and superior ratings from the sight reading judges. The saxophone quartet and the brass sextet played at various community functions and with the saxo- phone duet and Susan Keck's solo, went to the State Solo and Ensemble festival where they all received excellent ratings and Susan passed the proficiency examination. As was mentioned, the bands sponsored the Dis- trict Seven Solo and Ensemble Festival here, which drew over one thousand people to Lowell on Feb- ruary l5th. Practically all band members worked on making this a success, either by acting as chair- man for various rooms, selling candy, or working in the office.

FOOTBALL The Red Arrow football team, under the coach- ing of Mr. Howe, and Mr. Kelly, proved fairly suc- cessful by winning three, losing four, and tying one. Mainly due to the Asian flu and iniuries, Lowell was able to win only one conference game, that being over Rockford, but also tied second place with Grandville. However, the Arrows won both non- conference games, downing Ionia and Greenville. In Lowell's opening game against Ionia, the Arrows were victorious by a score of 19-7 With plenty of confidence Lowell went into conference play against Wyoming Park. but the Vikings, with a much im- proved ball club, downed the Arrows l2-6. Lowell's third encounter was with East Grand Rapids, with Lowell being defeated by a score of l8-O. The next game was the Homecoming for Lowell, which put the Arrows against Grandville. Lowell looked as if they had the game won as they scored in the first half and converted to go ahead 7-O, but the Bulldogs scored in the final half to give Lowell its lone tie of the season, 7-7. The following game was with a fast and experienced Godwin crew who downed Lowell to the tune of 32-2. The Arrows then went to face a small, but tricky Lee team which defeated an iniury laden Lowell squad l6-l3. The following was a victory for the Red Arrows as they downed Rock- ford at the Rams field, by a score of 26-O. The final game of the season was with Greenville. The game was strictly an offensive battle with Lowell winning by a 39-3l decision. This ended the i958 football cam- paign. When it came to individual honors, Tony Storm- zand was voted Most Valuable by the team, and received second team All Conference backtield by the Press. Also, lineman Dick Conners received All Valley on the Herald's second team as end, for his fine block- ing and pass receiving.

TRACK The Lowell Red Arrows track team repeated their 1956 season by capturing second place in the Grand Valley, following East. ln the first meet, Lowell defeated Godwin by a score of 62521 to 46M1. Our second meet was with Lee, which the Arrows crashed by the margin of 83 to 26. The following two meets were won handily over Grandville 82-27, and Wyoming Park 88V2-20W The following was the real test, as the Arrows took on the Pioneers of East Grand Rapids. With several bad breaks the Lowell team was beaten by the slim mar- gin of 67M to MM. However, the Lowell crew wasn't done as they finished the regular season by downing the Rockford team by a 68V2 to 40h decision. Also, during the regular season the lads took in the rough Mt. Pleasant invitation, the Central Michigan College Relays which is the biggest high school track event in the nation, with the best competition in the state. Here the boys made a proud showing by winning nine medals, and placing high in the final standings. Also, the boys placed well in the State meet, as Bob Carrigon won the mile, and set the Grand Valley mile record, and George Henderson received second place in the quarter mile, to round out the scoring. Other records were set during the season, as Leonard Fase, hurdle ace, broke both the high and low hurdle records. As for the future, Lowell track team looks very good with the returning of much depth, how- ever, much was lost by graduation.

CROSS COUNTRY The Red Arrows Cross Country team had a very successful season, under the coaching of Mr. Perry. The harriers won all dual meets, however, Wyoming Park de- feated the Arrows in the Conference Meet to deadlock the two teams for the champion- ship. In the first meet, the Arrows registered a perfect score by defeating the Rockford Rams by a 15-48 margin. The next victory was a very important one, as the Arrows won over the Wyoming Park crew 25-30. The following meet was a real test to our harriers as a rough Godwin team led by their state champion Roger Humberger, pitted their talents against the Red Arrows. However, the Arrows won by a score of 23-36. The second of the perfect meets came with the T5-49 decision over East Grand Rapids, as the Arrows scored another impressive victory. Following the East meet, Lowell met the Grandville Bulldogs, and were again victorious, l8-4l. Then came the conference meet, the Wyoming Park victor, but the Red Arrows received second. However, the Lowell team defeated the Vikings in dual meets and at the season's end, both teams shared the Grand Valley Cross Country Championship. Following the conference meet, Lowell entered the State Regional, and consumed 97 points and received third place. This left the team eligible for the state meet at Ypsilanti, where the boys rolled up a total of 295 points, and received eighth place, which was very outstanding, considering the field of hundreds of runners. 63 ANNUAL STAFF mm 64 fy IA .- .
