The following is a brief account of the records kept on their journey. Those who set forth on this adventure under the guidance of Miss Edna Jeppson were: Richard Anderson, Frances Marie Anderson, Mary Alice Dolezal, Joan Edstrom, Mildred Hackbarth, Joyce Johnson, Kenneth Johnson, Lila Jean Lake, Allan Larson, Grace Moline, JoAnn Schneider and Ben Swanson, Jr. In the second year of the journey they were joined by Arlene Samuelson and Stanley Kucera. The third year of the itinerary was made under a new guide. Miss Bernice Crinklaw. Mary Dolezal had left the travelers but Stanley Almen and Peggy Lou Dolezal joined the group. The travelers took part in the operetta “Palace of Coulersness”. The same band of travelers continued the fourth year of the journey. Miss Ida Sward became the guide for the fifth year of travelers. During this year Kenneth John- son and Peggy Lou Dolezal left the groups and ten members were added to it. During the sixth year of the search for knowledge the groups grew so that it numbered 37. Six of those added joined at the beginning of the year and Ellen Marie Sabatka and 14 others joined during the year. The travelers took part in the play “A Visit From Uncle Sam” during this year. Twenty-three adventurers continued the seventh year of the journey under the guidance of Mrs. Alta Angel I. Betty Head riel and Charles Zook were new comers in the grouf and Kenneth Johnson again joined it. There were 18 who belonged to the band of travelers, led by Mrs. Mary Howland, during the eighth year of the journey. Ben Swanson and Stanley Kucera had left. At the beginning of the ninth year of the journey the travelers were initiated into new and unknown territory which includes entering the High School of Mead. New members of the group were: Lloyd Armold, Elaine Bergman, Victor Lind, Frances Seely, Darlene Kuhr, and Kenneth Ueberrhein. The rest of the group included Stanley Almen, Frances Anderson, Richard Anderson, Charles Angell, Bon- nie Bradley, Joan Edstrom, Mildred Hackbarth, Betty Headrick, Joyce Johnson, Kenneth Johnson, Grace Moline, Maurice Palmberg, Ellen Sabatka, JoAnn Schneider, Ernie Taylor, and Charles Zook. Miss Katherine Rebbe was chosen as leader. The same group, with the exception of Bonnie Bradley and Victor Lind continued the tenth year of the journey under the leadership of Miss Pearl Doyle. Several class parties were enjoyed during this year. Mrs. Louis Hoffman was chosen as guide for the eleventh year of the adventure. Ben Swanson re- joined and Rhoda Leaf and Earl Stoakes joined the travelers at the beginning of the year. At the end of the first semester Charles Angell and Ernie Taylor left the group. Activities of this year in- cluded the production of the play “Papa Says. No”, (publication of the annual, and the Junior-Senior Picnic). At last the twelveth year and the last lap of the journey was reached. Mr. Bodzek was chosen as guide for the end of the journey. Those who were still along of those who had started the adventure were: Richard Anderson, Frances Anderson, Joan Edstrom, Mildred Hackbarth, Joyce Johnson, Kenneth Johnson, Grace Moline and Ben Swanson, Jr. Highlites of the year included the publication of Buccaneer, participation in the operetta, “Chonita”, the Junior-Senior picnic, Sneak day, and the Senior play “Springtime for Susie.” On May 13th the following received diplomas: Stanley Almen, Frances Anderson, Richard Anderson, Lloyd Armold, Elaine Bergman, Joan Edstrom, Mildred Hackbarth, Betty Headrick, Joyce Johnson, Kenneth Johnson, Darlene Kuhr, Rhoda Leaf, Grace Moline, Ellen Sabatka, Frances Seely, Earl Stoakes, Ben Swanson, Kenneth Ueberrhein, and Charles Zook. After receiving this reward as a symbol of the knowledge that they had found on the journey through Mead Consolidated School, the travelers parted company and continued individually the journey through life. ★ ★ CiaAi We see the'senior Q II r class of 1949 visit- is |C vJ r ntL I ing a fortune teller 1 B%W1 MhV 1 at the Nebraska State Fair during the same week in which their last year of school will begin. They are grouped around the table on which the huge crystal ball stands, each waiting and wondering what is in his or her future. The first of their classmates to be seen is BETTY HEADRICK whom they are pleased to find is a professional model for the famous Mr. Powers. And what a surprise! BEN SWANSON, JR. has become Mr. Powers’ co-partner. After the low whistles fade away, the class peers into the future again to see a sign reading, “See Honest Stan For A Good Used Car.” This could be none other than STANLEY ALMEN, whom the class finds in his office with his stenographer, ELAINE BERGMAN, sitting on his lap. Eyes gaze intensely as the class watches DR. FRANCES ANDERSON perform an appendectomy in a local hospital. And on a second glance, LLOYD ARMOLD is recognized as the assisting M.D. ★ The scene changes to a busy street corner where an old man stands selling newspapers and maga- zines. The president of the United States National Bank, known to his classmates as RICHARD ANDERSON, buys a paper and asks EARL STOAKES how things have been going. The class- mates didn’t quite catch his reply, but it sounded like, “How about a loan, Richy?” Further on down the street the class sees a shop called Mildred’s Beauty Salon for Men. In smaller letters the sign reads, “Hair waving my specialty”, and the class knows it must be MILDRED HACK- BARTH. As the class listens through the keyhole, they learn FRANCES SEELY is an accountant in the large department store on Fifth Avenue owned by CHARLES ZOOK. The class now sees JOAN EDSTROM in her little dress shop on the outskirts of Chicago. She tells the class that KENNETH JOHNSON is the Ag teacher at dear old Mead High. They wonder if he teaches geometry too! At the next gaze into the future, the class sees a girl with long golden tresses teaching some native children in the jungles of Africa. Those curls could only belong to RHODA LEAF. Another look finds KENNETH UEHERRHEIN and his wife sitting by the fireplace of their home in San Diego after having had another successful day at his corner drugstore. The class looks with envy at JOYCE JOHNSON as she steps from a transcontinental airplane on which she is the stewardess. The next look finds GRACE MOLINF. behind the counter in a P-X making some extra pin money to help meet her and her P.F.C. Marine husband’s expenses. Ctaii I, Richard Anderson, will my ability as a basketball player to Loren Berggren and liking for a certain dark-haired girl to no one.

I, Kenneth Johnson, will my good behavior to Howard Overton and my good papers in Voc. Ag. to Ben Bergman. I, Darlene Kuhr. will my giggle to Gwen Hageman The scene again changes to a classroom where ELLEN SABATKA is seen teaching her Home Ec- onomics class to sew a straight seam. And on her desk stands a picture of the president of the U. S. National Bank, whom we mentioned before! And last but not least, the class see DARLENE KUHR as the teacher of dramatics at Yale Univer- sity. They wish her a lot of luck with all those men around! As the seniors leave the fortune tellers booth to start on their way home, they rub their eyes and wonder how right the old lady may have been. ★ ★ and my gum-chewing techniques to anyone who thinks they can manipulate them. I, Junior Swanson, will my speed to Renald Barrett and my forwardness to Durene Drews.

A new shipment of gifts arrives, one of which—Grant Terry tells them— contains the name of a man who is to be murdered. Only the murderer knows which gift contains the victim’s name. The sus- pense mounts when one after the other, the hotel guests seem inter- ested in purchasing the fatal box of stationery. The play moves rapidly through three thrill-packed acts with Grant Terry finally catching the would-be killer, none other than Sam Fisk. Besides catching the murderer. Grant also captures the heart of Sylvia, and Mable finally succeeds in persuading shy Clifford to propose. It I’ve read it five times already.

MITCHELL BODZEK Biology Biology is the study of plants and ani- mals and why they experience the reactions they do. This is a good course to precede the study of agriculture or medicine. General Science Being a preparatory course for biology, chemistry, and physics, general science is found to be very valuable to students who plan to take additional courses in science in high school. Most of our freshmen take it fcr that reason. Civics Civics is the course which trys to ac- quaint the high school student with the Con- stitution and the rights granted citizens by it. The textbook interprets some of the major clauses of Federal and State laws. Shop The shop course stresses use and care of hand tools, operation of power machines, vocational guidance, worth-while hobbies, appreciation of various trades and hobbies, and correct habits of work. HISTORY, ENGLISH AND MR. ANDERSON English Three courses in English are offered at Mead. These courses all include the study of composition, of grammar, and of literature. The art of oral and written expression was one of the leading factors in the development of our civilization. It still holds that position today. American History American History, a senior subject, deals with the discovery of America, and its problems up to the present time. Mr. Anderson stated that they have been working like beavers. MR. BIXLER AND H SO, Chemistry The chemistry class has been studying the princi- ples of reaction, the analyzing of compounds, and the how’s and why’s of all chemical actions. Chem- istry is a necessary background in engineering, medicine, and many other needed vocations. the i THE VOCATIONAL DEPARTMENT In a day and age when vocational training has gained such importance, Mead can be justly proud of its homemaking department and its agricultural department. Operating under the Smith-Hughes plan, we have some of the best equipped class rooms in Nebraska. Take a look at the pictures below, and you’ll see what we mean by practical training. Home Economics I II If you like pretty clothes on a minimum budget, here’s the class for you. Agriculture Home Economics III Here’s a class where the girls learn how to cook and why they have failures as all good cooks, even the best, occasionally do. Remember this, cooks are made, not born. Why not take the first step in the art of good cooking—meet Miss McNaught. MISS MARIAN McNAUGHT In a farming community—in an environment where our livelihood depends upon the soil, no high school class comes closer to filling the actual needs of a community than agri- culture. Mr. Gustafson, instructor of the course, also owns and operates his own farm. MR. NORMAN GUSTAFSON MRS. VIRGINIA COLLING Typing Here is a course which represents a saving of time to anyone. It also presents a means of livelihood. Shorthand Shorthand is for those interested in a broader commercial training. The beginning shorthand class is trying to meet the standards required in Civil Service. FRENCH OFFERED FOR THE FIRST TIME French, one of the three live Romance Languages, is spoken in many countries. The world wars have made us realize how necessary it is to know other spoken languages. French idioms are formed in most of today’s literature and are heard on a great many radio programs. We use a large number of French word in our vocabulary. «taw J- MITCHELL BODZEK Richard Anderson A % •.— .-r ' v: v :t. j Earl Stoakes ? y. .v- v ‘ 5 •v;A c .vv i .Wi--. u Dale Johnson .. .� tw-V; Q' J k Lloyd A rmold FRONT ROW: Lloyd Armold Richard Anderson Earl Stoakes Roy Lund Dale Johnson SECOND ROW: Bill Armold Arnold Kudlacek Stan Almen Ben Swanson Adrian Sabatka Wally Johnson Charles Zook BACK ROW: Allan Moeller Delmar Sagert Fred Anderson Ian Crinklaw Richard Zook Ben Bergman Pete Kriz Renald Barrett Coach Bodzek SPORTS Coach Mitchell Bodzek’s crew sailed to one of their better seasons in the last ten years. The high lights of the season include victories over Ashland and Weston. Weston, the 1948 Class D Champs had not been defeated on their own floor in three years. Though the Raiders suffered defeats from Waverly, Wahoo, and Springfield, the team was victorious in the Saunders County Tourna- ment and the Saunders County Conference. Richard Anderson lead point makers with 220 points, followed by Roy Lund, with 215, Earl Stoakes, with 191, Dale Johnson, with 53, Lloyd Armold with 26. The 2nd Team was victorious throughout the season. Probably the most exciting games were those with Weston, Nebraska School for the Deaf, and Ashland. Our team closed the season undefeated, winners of the Saunders County Tournament and the Saunders County Conference. The high scores were as follows: Arnold Kudlacek, 152, Stanley Almen, 95, and Adrian Sabatka, 88. 1st TEAM SCORES Mead 33 . Alumni 29 50 Millard . 38 42 . Yutan . C5 39 .

The Mead High School Chorus, under the capable and talent- ed direction of Mrs. Thomas, gave us some delightful memories for the school year of 1948-49. In December they gave us a Christmas program; in March, we saw and heard a colorful oper- etta, “Chonita”, the story of a lovely young gypsy girl tom between the love of the open life and the glamour of gay, vivacious Budapest. Then there are the small groups—the boys and girls who practice overtime just for the fun of it. Our sextette and quartetts have made countless appearances—at community gatherings, at plays, and at parties. The trio hasn’t made as many appearances, but it is equally as good. The highlights of the spring season were the presentation of the Cycle of Life. and an all grade program featuring two and three part choruses, musical skits, etc. The Cycle of Life included the state district contest numbers.
