Page 4 The Bulldog PROPHECY (Continued from Page 3) Moser, Harrison, and Karges went to get the latest dope on how to make rice patties for the FHA but they fell in love with three little chinks and didn’t bother to come back. Betty Loehr and Wylah Kruger helped Frank Costello escape to Japan and arc helping him set up a gambling ring there. Duane Reiners and Mary Weber are living on a llama farm in Australia. First person we met in Hawaii was Bob Schmidt, commander of the naval base there. He told us to be sure to see Colene Schmitt and Rosalie Engelson, hula hula dancers, in our hotel. Floyd Bohn was playing the guitar. In Mexico wc saw Mugs Tillman walking by her husband, Ronnie Koepke who was riding a donkey, while their eight children were swimming in the Rio Grande. Derrick made herself quite a haul panning gold in South America. She threw a big party. Aden was Master of Ceremonies and his ventriloquism sounded just like Ginny Wendland, who by the way, set up business on the briny deep with her better half, teaching parrots how to talk. Special dispatch. Jim Erickson just homesteaded a fine piece of land for himself and christened it Greenland. You should see the fine mink coat Dick Angerhofer’s wife, Arlys Rislov, wears that he trap- ped for her there. Shirley Eastman and Luvcrne Chapman have set up a partnership catching salmon. It was nice running into Joanne Nord, a mission- ary up there. Joan Folk has a large Canadian man- sion. Eddie Glasier is her cook. Lyle McCulloch is an English Lit Professor back in the good old USA. He reports a very informal class which the students teach. We stopped by a famous old California mission and a bent old man was ringing the bell. Imagine ! Kcnnv Gulck a janitor. In Texas, Doll caught a glimpse of Mel Croymans when she looked out the hotel window. He washes them for a living. We were treated to a Bonn Bonn cold wave in a very elite beauty shop run by the twins. Gerry Mongold was giving manicures. In Chicago Doll called a doctor. Russell Lowe ap- peared. He convinced Janice Lowe not to change her name and they’re celebrating their fifth wedding anniversary this week. Our Minneapolis taxi driver turned out to be La- Vcrna Scharf. As she was taking us to the Alvin to sec the show with Betty Westphal, Shirley Bohn, and Myra Kuper who are in the chorus, we ran into Eloise Bohn’s Buick. It wasn’t a serious accident, however. Shirley Dittes is in charge of Information aC the railroad station and Marlys Busk was pinch-hitting as a railroad conductor because all the men are off HISTORY (Continued from Page 3) vey, Ken Gulck, Ed Glasier, and Jr. Monahan were football lettermen. The climax of the junior year was the Junior-Sen- ior prom and banquet. They chose A flower garden in the rain” as their theme. Early in February an all school Winter Formal was held. Geraldine Mon- gold was elected Sweetheart of MHS. In November they presented a three-act comedy, Deacon Dubbs,” directed by Mr. Sly. The class was represented by Joanne Nord and Geraldine Mongold in the dis- trict declam contest. Jack Flanery, Lyle McCulloch, Rudy Nef, Tim Garvey, Ken Gulck, Phil Strand- void, Jr. Monahan, Mel Croymans, Ed Glasier, and Ron Harrison received letters in football. Tim Gar- vey, Rudy Nef, Jack Flanery, and Ron Harrison were on the first five in basketball. Tim Garvey, Mel Croymans, and Phil Strandvold were outstand- ing in track. Besides all this, they were proud to be the first junior class in the new school building. Tim Garvey, Rudy Nef, Ron Harrison, Joanne Burges, and Joanne Nord were the Boys’ and Girls’ State representatives. At last they reached that long awaited year of their lives—when they became the mighty seniors of MHS. The biggest event was homecoming. King Jack Flanery and Queen Kathleen Hughes reigned over a very successful Bow Wow Day. The senior class was outstanding in sports, declam, and music. Charles Bury, baritone horn soloist, won a superior in the regional contest and was selected for the State Rotary Contest. Bob Schmidt, tuba soloist, won a superior also and was chosen alternate. The Tin Hero,” a roll-’cm-in-the-aisle three-act comedy was presented on April 20 under the direction of Elmer Moe. Joanne Burges was chosen DAR candidate from the senior class and also received second in the state DAR contest. They closed the year’s activities with a picnic in Watertown. They truly have lived up to their motto Today We Follow, Tomorrow We Lead.” at war. On the way home I read Shirley Reiners’ latest novel. Just made it home in time for the double wedding of Janice W. and Eileen. We saw Jack Flanery at the wedding dance in Twin Brooks. He’s garbage collector there. Tim Garvey helps him once in a while, but mostly he just sits. Guess those two are confirmed bachelors. Well thanks for the trip, Rudy! It’s been fun see- ing everyone again.

THE BULL ft DOG VOLUME VII, NUMBER I THE SENIOR CLASS, HISTORY AND PROPHECY ALUMNI OF '51 VISIT CLASSMATES IN MANY LANDS CLASS OF '51 COMPLETES SUCCESSFUL SCHOOL CAREER It was a wonderful day in September, 1939, when quite a number of innocent little dears went toddl- ing off to their first day of school. Among the tears and noise, the teacher managed to teach them to spell, to print, and to keep their mouths shut. The first year was, of course, the most exciting. In the second grade they renewed old friendships and some of the students participated in a music recital and Christmas play. The fourth, fifth, and sixth grades brought with them music recitals, declamation contests, and the never forgetable operettas. By the time they reached the seventh and eighth grades the seniors of ’51 were well-mannered citizens, most of them belonging to the scouts and the Y.C.L. It was the ruling hand of Mr. Groeneveld that guided them through their junior high days. 1947 brought a new dawning to some 90 students as they set out upon their high school career. They were initiated October 1. All over town you could hear, I’m a little freshman flower, growing greener by the hour. I’m as green as green can be. ’Cause no one cultivated me,” being recited by the green freshies” kneeling in humbleness before their mighty seniors.” Before the year was up the class was well represented in extra-curricular activities such as football, basketball, music and declam. They chose as their cheerleaders, Pat DeFea, Helen Cannedy, Joanne Nord, and Eileen Van Veen. Progressing upward into senior high activities, the sophomore year brought many new and exciting things. Classes were held in the auditorium and court house. Tim Garvey and Jack Flanery were on the first ten in basketball. Joanne Nord and Eloise Bohn were two of the four senior high cheerleaders. The class also showed outstanding participation in music, declam, and sports. Jack Flanery, Tim Gar- (Continued on Page 4) Farrell, Konshak Win Tour; See World And Former Classmates Ye merry authors won Rudy Nef’s cheese-eating contest and a trip around the world. Duane Ander- son, now a full-fledged telegrapher, will transmit all our encounters. Ist dispatch. With Charles Bury at the wheel of our Trans-World flier and Kathleen Hughes as our stewardess, we left for London via New York to see Wesley McCrea and Puffy Adams, proprietors of a ladies’ dress shop there—but first we stopped off at Dublin, Ireland to see Eunice Anderson who is on a buying trip for Mittelstaedts’. After a short chat with Wes and Puffy, we left for France to see Pat DeFea, a model at the Paris Lafayette and Audrey Troelson, a professional hair stylist. The girls took us on a tour of the city and we were surprised to see Earl Christians who is studying art there. We also had a chat with Jeanette Peterson and Eloise Mueller who have been training to swim the English Channel. In Germany Delaine Nord, a chef at a high-class restaurant, fixed us a delicious meal before we left for Czechoslavakia to sec the Reverend Monahan who has a mission there. We couldn’t stay too long with him as we had to hurry down to Cairo, Egypt in time to sec Burges’ twin boys christened Philip and Timothy by their proud father, the Reverend David Arthur Gugin. Belgian Congo, here we come. What a riot! In the midst of a mass of monkeys we saw Marvin Knock teaching them to twirl their tails. From there we swung around by Moscow to see Dave Dodds, per- sonal assistant to Joe Stalin. Stalin gave Dodds time off to show us around (probably to see if he could extract any information about home from us; he’s such a ladies’ man.) Well anyway, we discovered Beverly Thiele trying to break down the iron curtain —hopeless case. We stopped at Iran on our way to China, to see Arlin Kruger who inherited some oil wells from his grandfather. Incidentally Phil Strandvold owns and operates a wig factory there. We met Jim Haglc in Switzerland. He teaches skiing and swimming to tourists. (Continued on Page 4)
