It is stated that a more noble, more charming, more brilliant class has never been graduated from dear, old OHS. In a travel around t!w world,we have caught sight of these yesteryear students and have paused to find what they are doing or working at. These seniors have very interesting lives. Let me tell you about them. Our travels will begin in California. Phyllis Kresho, who is a resident of ban Francisco, has, for the past twenty years been voted the world's no. 1 society woman. Beneath her burden of costly jewels, her radiant personality still shines. As we travel eastward on the highway across Death Valley , we spy a hot dog stand with a sign that reads, Mary's Dog . Here we see our sweet Mary Ann Johnson slaving away over a grill on this lonely desert for the sake of mankind and hungry travelers. On to Reno, where we are to look upon the faces of young and old couples who are unsuccessfully married. Here we see Joann rdclund1 3 Divorce Shoppe . Poor girl , must have had a bad marriage. Who is in the shop? Why, it's Barbara and Ronnie Carlson. You'd think that a couple that has stuck it out for twenty-five years could get along a few more. Barbara, though,just seems to like the name £gly better than Carlson. It's a pity that his name couldn't have been Lgly, also. On the route to Utah our automobile became critically out of order so we halted it at a garage to have it repaired. You'll never guess that we bumped square into Marlin Nelson and LeMoyne Monson. Together they own and manage a garage and major in repairing bicycles built for two and hot rods . You have all heard of Mouse and Nels' Hot Rods . ifihile waiting there we decided to go swimming in the Great Salt Lake. To our surprise there was Jane Lewis sitting,with all her glory, on the life-guard chair. Since no one sinks easily in the lake,I couldn't help wondering why a life guard would be needed. Later I found out. She attracts business. Business men, that is. Across Colorado and a stop at Denver. What is this? An election is in the making. � � ho is running for governor? Why it's Dick Sterup. • hat a chap'. And to think all he cared for in school was women. Nebraska's plains bring us to Osceola where we stop at Bush's for a coke. Low and behold--there's Arlet Knight. Why, Arlet, you're still reading letters from those fellows. Couldn't you make up your mind? In Omaha we stop at the stage show where Theresa and Rita Swantek are the star performers. They have been a dancing team for twenty years and fame follows them everywhere. While in Omaha we hear the news that Lyle Johnston has bought one thousand acres of land which is used to raise wheat for bread. It is said he is the biggest loafer in these here parts. On to Indiana where we stop at a night club in Indianapolis for a late lunch. Here, to our greatest surprise, we find Rosilyn Kennedy. Her club is made up of male employees only. It is the first club that has cigarette boys instead of cigarette girls. Jerome Gabriel, alias Lefty , is hiding out from the police here and posing as a cashier. Class Prophecy Latest Indiana news heading, Rosie s Night Club Going Broke, Cause Unknown.” At the club we meet Bill Johansen. We learn that he 15 working as an elevator boy. It is the easiest way he could find to get to the top the quickest. After a good night's rest our trip is resumed and we decide to turn on the radio to break the monotony of the long drive. This is what we hear. Will poor Gertie rescue her husband from the clutches of the beautiful heiress? Will her son be spared? Will the train get derailed and her daughter killed? Listen in tomorrow to Gertie's other Husband played by Geneva Word, our darling of the air waves. Now this Is your announcer,Happy Rex Grossnicklaus,telling you to eat Crunchies. Look where eating Crunchies got him I On to New York City,where we see Carnegie Hall. There In the lights is the name The Queen of the Keys, Marilyn Miller. We always knew she'd make it. A visit to Coney Island explains to us where Leo Negley has been keeping himself. He is the best popcorn seller on the whole grounds. After making preparations to go across to England and other European countries we bid our friends goodbye and start on the last part of our journey. In London we receive an invitation from Lady Elaine and Lord Jim. Elaine insisted that Jim go to itfigland. Elaine has changed considerably. She has dyed her hair red and weighs 500 pounds. She says it's the latest English style. In Prance we find Paris to be a very amusing place. Another surprise Is in store. Drawing patterns for new styles for his 500 models Is Don Peterson. My hasn't lie changed? Don tells us that Vernon Boden is in the same business only in Egypt. Dresses, say Vernon, are easier to make there; there Isn't so much in them. In Russia we find that Bob Husak and Tony Iwan are beating their brains out to try to stop Communism. They ended up in Siberia. Ronald Swanson is in China assisting Madame Chiang Kai-chek. Ronnie Just had to help when her husband died. That's a good boy, Ronnie. Last,but not least, we find Ed Watts sleeping under a palm tree in Hawaii. There are two Hawiian girls over him fanning him. Edward, my boy, you are at last satisfied. And we, satisfied with our trip, return home wondering what twenty five more years will have in store for our seniors of 1950 v We, the seniors of Osceola High School, Village of Osceola, County of Polk,State of Nebraska, • class of 1950 in our normal state or mind do hereby make public and declare this to be our last will and testament.

The clothing, too, was different from that usually worn by thes� green underclassmen. A party was given by the seniors in honor of this new high school class a few weeks after the day of initiation.

The Bulldogs opened the season by being downed by David City. Ten successive defeats followed, many by close scores from Sliver Creek, Stromsburg, Rising City, Fullerton, Shelby, Clarks, Polk, Stromsburg again, Genoa, and Aurora• The Bulldogs outstanding game of the season was the 3U-37 loss they took at the hands of the Genoa crew. While the first team was having it s tough luck, the second team was sizzling, winning 7 out of these first 11 games. The Osceola team finally hit the win-column,winning its first game by downing Silver Creek, 50-l|0. Osceola was edged by Shelby in their next outing by a 32-28 score. Osceola entered the Polk County Tournament with a 1-win, 12-loss record and were defeated by their traditional rivals, Stromsburg—1 0-35 Meanwhile the Bulldogs second team beat the Polk Seconds in the opening and then proceeded to take the Reserve Trophy by beating Stromsburg. Osceola came back to beat St. Bonaventure their next game by a 36-28 score, but stumbled before Polk and St. Edward. Dwight Assumption, who went to the State Tournament, ran over the Bulldogs 57-22 in the District Tournament. The second team won 13 of their 18 games. LeMoyne Monson, senior guard, led individual scoring with 130 points, followed by Marlin Nelson, senior forward, with 87 points. Johnston, Gabriel, Watts, and Grossnicklaus followed in that order. Gabriel, a 6 2 center,will be the only regular back next season, but the Conference Champion second team will have back all five regulars to boost prospects for next season.

The attendants remained on the float, which carried them off the field. J '-jj r On April 27, 1950,the senior class presented the play, An Arizona Cowboy. There was a large audience present. The story of the play le as follows: Farley Gantt (Bob Husak) the cowboy sheriff, Is a courageous cattle puncher In Arizona who has made himself so popular with his fellow cowboys that they elected him sheriff, While the sheriff hae been rounding up a bunch of cattle thieves In the plains, his partner, Paul uilllan (LeMoyne Uonson), has become Infatuated with Coralie Blackshear (Jane Lewis), a stranger from Frisco. Under the evil influence of Coralie and her brother, Duke Blackshear (Ed Watts), a polished gambler and cattle rustler, Paul begins to drink and gamble and finally loses his position as paymaster of the Double Z Ranch. The scene of the play is at Purple Dog, 'Arizona, a crossroads village boasting several houses and a Palace Hotel. The Double Z Ranch is owned by a college girl,Miss Marguerite Moore (Rosilyn Kennedy), who has a great admiration for the cowboy sheriff. Farley returns this admiration tenfold, but the course of true love is roughened by the crooked tongue of a Navajo Indian Malden, Fawn Afraid (Barbara Egly), who is in love with the sheriff. Farley returns from the plains and learns that Paul has lost his position. He decides to save the boy if possible,and in a strong, dramatic scene with his partner appeals to his better nature to give up the course he is pursuing and go with him out on the range. Paul refuses, being completely under the influence of Coralie and her brother, who plan to have him reinstated as paymaster of the ranch and then to steal the cowboys' pay and make a getaway to Frisco. This plan seems about to work when Yow Kee (Jerome Gabriel), a Chinaman employed at the Palace Hotel,overhears the scheme and informs the cowboy sheriff. Marguerite refuses to re-employ ?aul and hires Hesekiah Bugg(Marlin Nelson),the loving husband of Petunia Bugg (Arlet Knight). Coralie and Duke, realizing that their former scheme is impossible,decide to steal the money from Bugg,which they do after wounding him. A little waif,known as Young'un (Elaine Gross-nicklaus),sees Coralie stab Hezekiah, and when Paul's infatuation for the woman leads him to assume her guilt,Young'un tells the truth and dramatically reveals the stolen money. Two months pass and the love affair between the sheriff and the pretty ranch owner is finally straightened out by the Indian maid,who bravely confesses that she lied for love of the sheriff. Duke and his lieutenant, one Grizzly Grimm (Tony Iwan), have found an almost inaccessible cave where, after kidnapping Marguerite, they plan to keep her until a ransom has been faid. The plan almost succeeds, but she is rescued by Farley and Big Elk Ronald Swanson), the Navajo chief who is the father of Fawn Afraid. A strong feature of this play is the abundance of bristling, clean-cut and breezy western comedy that eliminates all possibilities of there being any dull or dead moments. A mischievous little cow-girl,aaboesy old woman, a funny Chinaman always in trouble and always looding for more,and Hezekiah Bugg, the biggest liar in the state of Arizona, kept the audience in continual good humor. r' ' ! A large, appreciative audience attended the junior class play «ho hilled Aunt Caroline.'11 on .■’rlday evening, November 18, 1 in the high school auditorium. After weeks of diligent rehearsing, the members of the cast displayed their individual sta e talents, as each character very ably portrayed his role. J J Hita rLresha, in the rol© oX mrs. i ndicott, did a very commendable bit of acting as she gave a motherly interpretation of a middle-aged widow very much concerned about the welfare of her children, Agnes, a young librarian played by liava Gros3;iicklaus; Kiccy, a nigh school budding chemist, played by xax Anderson; Beryl, a typical teen-aged junior, played by Barbara Kus-ael; and her youngest bread-and-sugar eating youngster. Cicely, very typically played by Joyce Morgan. The cruel, iomlneering, haughty Aunt Caroline .•as played exceptionally well by - arilyn ivuhnel; and her meek secretary companion was well played by Kosemary Walgreen. Jerald Bryan Is to be commended on his fine portrayal of Cave i’nompson,Agnes fiance. LaVonne Binges gave o good interpretation of Biss xcLain, a helpful teacher, and Kenneth Beebe served well in the role of Lieutenant Clayton, an officer of the law. In supporting roles were Dick watts as'dan Donovan, a typical high school junior, and dally Ball as 'Una Hagaman, a struggling pianist, dally very ably took the part of Joan Johnson who contracted the mum.s the morning of the day of the play. The curtain acts consisted of a reading by Alice Lorraine Johnson; a piano solo by Christine dhemek; a piano-duet by Joann Lowe and Christine oheraek; and a song sung ey dally - all, Leta Bteter, JoAnn Bowe, and Christine Shemek. Dick watts, president of che Junior class, gave a fe.v word3 of appreciation on behalf of the junior class, and presented Krs. McDonald with a beautiful gift as a symbol of thanks l'or her devoted efforts to make the play the success that it was. ' Junior-Senior Banquet L The junior Class was host to the Senior Class and faculty in the 'liOers saloon on Kay 6. Each person entered the famous ''swinging doors into a hayen beautifully dedorated. Blue and gold streamers hung fron the celling Wh ?e Pioket t«“ce which outlined the wall of the saloon. Paintings fee ?e Was lookine for miles out into the barren country. Cowboy boots and large wagon wheels painted blue and jold were placed around the room giving a true western-style spirit. The bar—fully equipped with a roulette wheel--------added an atmosphere(?) to the theme. A small scene had been set beside the stage to cast a spell of 181+9 over the pioneers of this century. In the scene a man and his wife, both pioneers, were seated before a campfire warming themselves, their horse and covered wagon near by. Gold lanterns were set in the center of each table surrounded by yellow flowers. The nutcups were small covered wagons of blue and gold. The Juniors honored the Seniors by giving them yellow roses, the Senior class The menu was as follows: Cocktail Ham Loaf or Salmon Loaf Hiced Potatoes Buttered Peas and Carrots Orange-Pineapple Salad Rolls Coffee Ice Cream Wafers This delicious menu was cooked by the Lutheran Ladies Aid.

Punch drinks were served at the bar by two bemaids and bartenders from the Freshmen class. Fran Marshall's orchestra furnished the music. At 11:30 the lights suddenly went out. Excitment filled the air Girls screamed I Bandits ran in from all doors shooting off their cap guns.
