SENIOR CLASS WILL We, the Class of ’57 of Mead High School, city of Mead, State of Nebraska, being of sound mind and memory do hereby publish this, our last will and testament. To the freshmen we leave our very quiet manners. To the sophomores we leave our ability to get along with study hall teachers. To the juniors we leave our ability to hold all class meetings in an orderly and dignified manner. To the teachers we leave our sympathy that they will have to carry on without us next year. I, Leland Melson, leave my ability to play the tuba to Glenn Nelson, and my straight A’s to anyone who needs them. I, Garry Esser, leave my ability with girls to Ronnie Pellan, and my pole vaulting ability to Ralph Langemeier, who needs it. I, Duane Hageman, leave my spelling ability to Glenda Melson, and my quiet manners to Karen Magnuson. I, Roger Luehrs, leave my ability to go steady to Bobby Williams, and to Don Fisher my broad jumping ability. I, Ben Svoboda, leave my pilot’s license to anyone who won’t get caught using it in study halls, and my football shoes to anyone who can fill them. I, Karol Stoakes, leave my big brown eyes to Glenda Melson, and my driver’s license to anyone who can get it for me. I, Janice McClay, leave half interest in my class ring to anyone who can tell me where it is, and my little gossip book to someone who wants to keep his name out of the paper. I, Carol Kittelson, leave my fainting ability to anyone who needs it in a class play, and my love for snakes to next year’s biology class. I, Pauline Swanson, leave my interest in the Navy Reserve to no one, and my waist line to Lynne Eggers. I, Betty Jo Flagle, leave my job of lettering for the paper to anyone who thinks it’s easy, and my ability to keep a man to Ginger Fisher. I, Kenneth Emken, leave my flirting methods to Glenn Nelson, and my ability to get stories in on time to next year’s school paper staff. I, Danny Johnson, leave my Chrysler to Bobby Williams, who needs a car, and my ability to hold the paste tube in annual work to Mrs. Lombardo. I, Douglas Gustafson, leave my track ability to Jack Swanson, and to Mrs. Lombardo my ability • to smear paste on pictures. I, Willard Witte, leave the key to my Mercury convertible to Ronnie Morrissey, and to Mrs. Lombardo my ability to put the pasted pictures on the annual pages. I, Gerald Buesing, leave my basketball ability to Mickey House, and my height to Jimmy Ellison.
