GIgAA, Pnj pliecy Everyone is bustling with excitement, all seem to be hurrying toward the home of Pansy Yokum, society leader of Dogpatch. And no wonder this, is a big day for everyone] Pappy has just purchased Pansy a new television set and the whole gang is over setting it up. Yes, sir, there is Lil Abner Daisy Mae, Mammy and Pappy Yokum and just about every other citizen that can walk or find a way over. It looks like they finally have it set up. There is Lil Abner twisting, turning and pushing all the buttons and at the same time trying to remember the instructions the salesman gave Pappy and him. He seems to be getting something now, there--it is coming into focus. This is station P.A.R.D.E.E. T.V., centrally located in that thriving metropolis, Pardeeville, Wisconsin. Ladies and gentlemen, I now present for your entertainment, the Bulldog1 s Bark.. As you all know every Thursday at this time, and through the courtesy of our sponsor Uncle Ned’s Salted Peanuts, we bring to you a program devoted to our high school. With 27 roving cameras located all over the world, we bring you a behind the scenes picture of a previously graduated class of P.H.S. Today we have for you that wonderful class of 1953. Sports flash]] Today, ladies and gentlemen one of the most astound- ing upsets in the world of sports has taken place. Harold Atkinson, alias ”The Pardeeville Flash”, has just wrested the world’s heavyweight wrestling crown from former champ I. C. Starrs. Juanita Atkinson certainly is a success in the medical world. She just got her promotion and is head nurse at the Mayo Clinic. We just caught her in time folks. There is Joyce looking over the new super-sonic space ship. It is claimed that this new-fangled contrap- tion will make a round trip to Mars at an average speed of 70 million M.P.H. Now don’t get excited folks, Joyce just came down to say good-by to her husband who will be leaving immediately. She wouldn’t think of flying in that thing. On her last trip to the moon you know, she got tooclose to one of those moon men and caught that rare, mysterious disease, Maddining Moon- its. We now see Iona and John R., happily married. Right now Iona is do- ing the family bookkeeping. She keeps count of all the income and expenses of their little farm. And I’ll be darned if there aren’t a couple of little debits and credits playing with their blocks in the kitchen. Reach for the sky hombre, or I’ll fill ya full of lead]]] Oh, excuse me folks, I just got carried away a bit. You see that scene now on your screens is from the new movie Cross Beats the Double Cross. And that wild cowgirl in the center Is the star, Hop-A-Long Cross alias our old classmate, Vaneece. We now see Jean Smith portraying her dancing talent as an instructor at Arthur Murray’s in New York City. One of Jean’s former classmates, Betty Lou Ebert, has Just arrived for her second rhumba lesson. Betty’s husband is a lumber tycoon and so Betty has nothing to do but spend money.

Gl U Will We the Senior Class of 1953, being of sound mind and body, do hereby make this our last will and testament. A score less than eight years ago, we unfortunates entered this worthy Institution wholely unprepared for the massive tasks that lay ahead of us.' Since that dismal day of Sept. 8, 1941 we have been Jilted, robbed, pushed, kicked, and literally dragged through 12 long years of hard labor. We fortunate survivors, however, have managed to collect in some odd form something we hold dear to our hearts and will never forget. We now endeavor to pass these treasures on to the lowly under-classmen. Harry Atkinson happily bequeaths his speed, endurance, and go-getting stamina to Rita Zerble, and knows she will make good use of It. Juanita Atkinson wills her hot lunch job to Ronald Johnson--who s do- ing pretty good for a beginner. May you keep it up faithfully for the next three years. To the present Junior girls Joyce Brandsma leaves all her old boy- friends. Don’t fight over them girls, there should be enough to go around. Iona Brewer says her lawyer is out of town on business, you know, the fellow from Endeavor, and she refuses to make a statement until his return. Vaneece Cross says she hasn’t anything to leave except Dick and she wants to hang on to him for awhile. Betty Lou E. leaves her quiet and friendly manner to Donald Van Swol. Clifton P. wills his ability to sleep in class to Clark W. and his athletic technique to Dick Lueptow. Flora G. leaves all her stationery and pen to anyone that needs it during school hours. Just be careful so you don’t get caught writing letters. Nancy Hatcher leaves her position at Badger Girl’s State to this years lucky girl. Bob Heaps wills his ability to stay thin to the girls of P.H.S. Arlene Hepler wills her quick learning abilities to Robert Griepentrog and hopes he will be valedictorian of his class. Bill Johnson generously leaves his ability to do nothing to the little man who wasn’t there. Margaret Larsen bequeaths her musical talent to Kenny Ereneman. May he some day be great. Lou Ann McDonald-.............-...................she will just leave. Dean Milton generously leaves his dear old 1936 Dodge to next years cheerleaders so that tney may have a float of their own in the annual foot- ball home-coming parade. Drive carefully girls.» Eldon Pulver bequeaths his artistic talent to Dick-Reardon. May he become another credit to the many generations of master painters. Don’t be too happy about your inheritance, Dick, these fellows usually don’t be come famous until after their death. Jerry Reardon gives his ability to get along with teachers to Harry Geisler who should really appreciate this gift. Your worries are over Harry. Wanda Rohrbeck bequeaths her annual editor work to Pat Toppe. May they have a good annual next year. Betty Schultz bequeaths her quiet ways to Janet Morgan. We hope she makes the best use of them. Warren S. bequeaths his speed and ambition to Norbert G. who can stand some leading the band. OH YES--and Marilyn? During the week Mr. Altenburg has an extra job looking after her. (The week-ends are taken care of.) Douglas Smith leaves his way with the women to Larry Lynch. What a romeo he will become! 14 Page Sponsored By ROSE WHITEY WERNER

Look at the huge crowd gathered at Daddy1s Furniture Store. Wonder what it'3 all about. Well, it's Warren S.-------and his job ia teating out beda. We had a hunch he'd get a aoft jobi We hear the proprietor ia a very reputable one too, it'a none other than Clifton Finger. Today ia a clearance aale on midget bedai Jana Warnke and Flora G. muat have gotten together on thia thing. Both are happily married and raiaing a family. They're in the proceaa of writing a book on married life called Helpful Hints for Hubby. (Of courae no one can forget that talented ainging of Nancy1a) The acene, Metropolitan Opera Houae, New York. Tonight a lovely young lady will make her opening appearance, the curtain riaea, and there in the middle of the atage a beautiful, talented atar of the future atanda. Our cameras move silently back taking in all the beauty, all the elegance of the acene. But there in one corner of the acene ia the image of a lone- ly, depressed aoul in an ushers uniform. Why it's none other than Nancy K. herself. She is working her way up alow but sure. And now we have a surprise. Bob Heaps ia happily married to Marilyn Monroe. It always was nothing but the beat for him. Kay Thomas and Arlene Hepler are busy teaching school. We didn't think they could keep away from books very long. The scene changes. Deep jungles, long vinea and bushy grasses away gently in a warm tropical breeze. Suddenly the alienee ia broken by the horrifying scream of a bull elephant. He charges, straight at a small party of hunters. At the last minute an arrow alams into hia skull at a vital point. The beast drops dead] In the background we see Wild Bill Johnson, a big game hunter, calmly looking over the dead animal and ex- plaining to hia friends Just how the shot was executed. Next, we see a quiet little houae In a little village. Above the door hangs a sign: Music lessons, Reasonable. And look who the teacher is, none other than Margaret Larsen. She is giving lessons to the great metro- politan concert pianist, Wanda Rohrbeck. Loanne McDonald James , is the name flashing on and off on the mar- quee of the Chicago Theatre----she really is a sensation as she plays the newest hit tunes on her fabulous instrument, the Trum-pappy . Our trans-atlantic television cables now swiftly bring Into focus Paris, France. Our cameras grasp the scene immediately, translating to our screens a French nation-wide beauty contest. The girls are competing for the title, The Only Girl That Could Make The Rhine River Run Backwards. And the judge is none other than Dean Franklin Milton. He, by the way, has made this his life's profession. It's a tense moment folks, there is Eldon Pulver, recognized as the world's pro. golf champ. He carefully takes aim and sinks a long one from 30 feet out to win the tournament. He now calls his caddy, turns, steps to his waiting Cadillac and speeds off. Now that caddy looked familiar , come to think of it now, it was none other than Jerry Reardon. And who do we see next but Betty Schultz and Doug. Smith, who are driving teenagers crazy about them with their fine duet singing. They are both living in Hollywood now. Helen Smith is seen at home doing housework. Her husband In the back- ground isn't too clear, but he slightly resembles a senior of 1950. As we have the weekly roller derby on T.V., we see the girls really are rough tonight. Hmi They sure are going to town, especially that one. Say, she looks familiar. It's none other than Fern W. We always knew she liked roller skating, but not to this extreme] Another classmate Is sure rolling in dough. Frank Url has a bakery of his own and we see a sign in the window that says Special today—Long- Johns. And such a hot day]] Page Sponsored By LAKE SIDE SERVICE STATION Harold Eggleston, Prop.
