Adviser-4Mrs. Effie A. Goulton C L.A S S H I S T O R Y Way back in 1938 the Oroville Grade School was proud to welcome a brilliant first grade group many of whom are still with usg some have departed to enroll in other schools. Mrs. Crabb was our patient first grade teacher and tried hard to teach us something, though it didn't all soak in. Those cute first graders were: Sydney Lois Forney, Rozella Harding, Steven Stenner, Eva Nel- son, Ellen Ann Graham, LaVaune Sutton, Shirley Naggy, Joan Fontaine, Ruth Buckmillsr, Grant Lewis, Jim y Hirst, Wayne Kinkade, Bonnie Able, Fred Har- denburgh, Shirley' Louden, Billy Allen, Jouette Doyle, David Buckmiller, Betty Jean Ward, Jimmy Murray, Margaret Youngblood, and Willard Higgen- bothem. l Al years went by our class had many new mem, bersa Desmond Boucher, George Mast, Mary Lou Ham- mer, Charlene Sawyer, Peter Kammcrs, Lee Gay, Gene Owyen, Bob Teas, Florence Weed, Peggy McGee, .Teen- nette Hhntly, Jimmy Lynch, Leon Shatto, Alice Able, and Harold Bannon. Then that day camel Happy were we all to gnn promotion to grade seven in ,the new junior high school, despite the fact we were rather scared.at first. Mr. Griffith was our principal for our first year, then he left to take charge of anodnr school, and Mr. Fox took his place. we remember both these principals with appreciation, for they helped us to reach many of our goals. Our Ninth Grade this year has been'an active successful one with the help of our teachers: Mrs. Doulton, Mrs. Martin, Mrs. Wingc, Mr. Fbx, Mr. Reid, Mr. Guffin, Mr. Rigby, and Coach Shaal. The brilliant striving students now in grade nine, entertaining high hopes of a speedy gradua- xllilxlslln.-. .--- ..-.Multi H Y., YY. is . ll V or tion are: Richard Hogg, Bud Huffman, Grant Lewis, Harold Bannon, Frank Wyatt, Jim Allemandi, Pete Kammers, David Buckmiller, Willis Bigelow, leslie Carpenter, Glen Chamberlain, Jim Curtis, Fred Har- denburgh, Willard Higgenbotham, Gerald Hughes, Bill Jacobson, Jimmy Lynch, George Mast, Jim Murray, Gene Owyen, Dick Patterson, Carl Rounds, Fred Rule, Don Carey, Clarence Fry, Don Gossett, Ruth Buokmil- ler, Fay Brott, Leila Cook, Mary Ellen Cubbage, Jouette Doyle, Roberta Duran, Sydney lois Fbrney, Ellen Ann Graham, Mary Lou Hammer, Betty Kensinger, Evelyn Martin, Connie McLain, Shirley Naggy, Patty Stough, Jeannette Vaught, Betty Jean Ward, Florence Weed, Joan Turner, and Ila Mae Schneider.

Each of us have our plan and are working toward a goal, which we hope to reach in time. we are look- ing forward to our senior high school days with the happy thought that we can use this 'eqended time to prepare a bit more thoroughly for a l fe of Service-to-the-World.

The expedition had not been a success, but as Carl was a determined archeologist, he was going to make another and better expedition. Taking advantage of Carl's absence, I decided to take a trip back to Oroville and look up all my classmates of 1947 to determine just what they had made of themselves. Reservations were made, and the following morning found me speeding on my way in a taxi to the airfield. ' Stepping from the taxi, I almost ran lntoa mn, who grinned at meg immediately I discovered it was David Buckmiller, whom I had not seen for years. I learned that David was an owner of a big radio station in New York City and making goodg he also told me that his singing star was Sydney Forney. This took me by surprise. David then said I should meet the pilot of the plane on which I had reserva- tions, and in a few moments I was introduced to Gene Owyens. This was wonderful I had scarcely begun my journey and had already met two of my old schoolmates. Gene and I exchanged greetings andhaa it was flying time he went to the planeg I boarded the plane and settled back in my seat to enjoy the trip. The stewardess soon appeared in the aisle and asked me if I wanted anything. I glared in de- light, for it was none other than Jouette Doyle. we exchanged news-bits and she informed me that her friend, Patty Stough, had become a model and was working in the Leila Cook Dress Shoppe, one of the largest in the State of Washington. ' The rest of my trip was a very pleasant one, and within a few hours we were circling a city. But was this really Oroville? Well, I should soon know, for the plane was now taxing up the runway of the large airfield. After saying good-by to Jbuette and Gene, I get in- to a taxi and sped away to a large hotel. It was very beautiful, and after looking around the lobby, I discovered that the interior had been decorated by Fay Brett, and the construction had been done by George Mast. I decided that I would have to get ao- customed to these surprises, or I would have heart failure, Yes, I must register. At the desk I observed. a small man, who had gray hair and was almost too fat. Even so, I recognized him as Richard Hogg. After finding out who I was, he gave me a room over-look- ing the city. My bags were brought up to me by a tall, dark, handsome man. Did I know him? I should for he was Frank Wyatt. This was too much. I asked Frank if he would get me a guide to take me around the city. He said he would, and that he would be another of our 1947 classmates. I tipped Frank lib- erally lfor he looked as if he needed itl and went to freshen up. Promptly at two the guide came. This time I was prepared for the shock. The guide was Leslie Carpenter. He told me that his car was at the curb in front of the main entrance and that we would use his private car. V Leslie began telling me the history of Oroville and a siren shrilly blewg we had driven thru a red sig- nal light, and toward us came an enraged cop. He took out his ticket book and was about to fine Les, when I recognized him as Fred Hardenburgh. When he found out who we were, he said he would let it go this time, but not to let it happen again. After telling Fred we had seen some of the old schod.group he said that I might be interested to know that Don Gossett was the mayor of Oroville and that his pri- vate secretary was Betty Lou Kinsinger. I thanked Fred, and as we were blocking traffic, we started on our way once more. Ieslie brought the car to a stop in front of a build- l ing with an attractive sign, The Oroville Times. I took from this that it was the paper office. Curi- osity overcame me, and I went into the building. At the editor's desk sat Gerald Hughes. Twenty years had done a lot to Gerald. He was getting gray hair and a serious expressiong I was certain he was a successful editor. Gerald recognized me immediately and soon we were chatting of by-gone days. I learned that three more of our classmates were on his staff. Jimmy Lynch was sports editor, Ellen Graham was fashion editor, and Mary Lou Ham- cartoonist. I told Gerald that with mer was his these people on his paper staff, his success would certainty. I then said good-bye and always be a soon we wore on our way. , down the street, I saw a most pictur- esque structure, all white and gleaming. Leslie informed me it was the hospital and soon there we were stopping at the curb in front of it. Upon en- tering we came face to face with Jeanette Vaught, head nurse, who recognized us and immediately call- ed the doctor, Jim Allemandi. Dr. Allemandi ex- plained to us that Don Carey, new a millionaire, was the owner of the hospital, was a big business man with many investments about the entire North- west. Jim then said we might be happy to meet more of our old classmates, three of whom were in the hospital at the moment. Pete Kammors was a patient suffering from over-exertion. Shirley 'Naggy was Looking far the cook. Jim Curtis was the landscapist and gardens er. Shirley was a great surprise to me, but Jim, assured us that Shirley was just the dietician to whom they all looked for guidance in properly feed- ing the patients. Nurse Jeanette soon called Dr. Allemandi into the surgery, and we said good-bye. we had now left the city about a mile behind, when we came to a large building. On entering we found it was the great Bigelow, Murray, Huffman Rabbit Farm. While there we also met Willard Higgenbotham who owned a large orchard and warehouse, and his pqlunnllsnv-,en-.W Y W N two foreman, Grant Lewis and Fred Rule. we had a pleasant talk, but as it was nearing six o'olock we went back to Oroville, where I said good-by to 1:65119 s Looking about I discovered a fine-looking restau- rant and went inside only to learn from the menu that it was owned and operated by Dick Patterson. While dining I heard a record being played. Had I heard that saxaphone before? Yes, it was Glen Chamberlin and his orchestra. After paying my bill I left the cafe and went shopping, for the shops were still open. I entered a hat shop owned by Ro- berta Duran and operated by Joan Turner. They were both surprised to see me and after inquiring as to the whereabouts of many of the other girls of our Class of '47, I found that Helen Langston had mar- ried a millionaire and was traveling in Europe. Two girls who had married and were living in Oro- villo, however, were Betty Ward and Florence Weed. I was very much surprised to find that been only three girls, who had married Freshman Class but I knew that sooner or all would. It was new getting late, so ing good-bye to Roberta and Jean I went hotel room. there had out of the later they after say- back to my After breakfast the next morning I started walking leisurely up the street. Soon I came to a large beauty and barber shoppe. I went inside and .sat down. Soon a girl came up to me and immediately I her to be Mary Ellen Cabbage. Sho told me that she managed the beauty shop and that Evelyn Martin and Connie McLain were the operators. The whole build- ing, however, was owned by Clarence Fry. Recover- ing from this shock, I asked about Ila Mae Schneid- er. Evelyn said that Ile Mae was a school teacher. Well, miracles did happen. Since it was Friday evening and I being a good box- ing fan, I turned on the radio in my room and set- tled back in my chair to enjoy the program. I was in time to hear the announcer say, This is Harold Bannon speaking to you from Madison Square Garden and bringing you a scheduled fifteexbroundesr for the heavy-weight championship of the wor1d.W I was indeed surprised to hear of Harold Bannon, but the real shock came when the boxers were introduced in- to the ring, for the challenger was Bill .Tacobsonw I was happy to hear of two more of my classmates, and happier still when there was a knock-out and Bill became the new heavy-weight champion of the world. Meditcting there I realized I had met or heard of all my former class mates of 1947, and that I must hasten beck to New York City to determine whether or not Carl had returned from his expedition to Men- ico. 3 ' 'xi 3:35 if Qt?
