CLASSES CLASS HISTORY As we look back on our first year at P.C.H.S. we see forty-three confused freshies who are now seniors but who are still just as confused. We elected as our class officers, President, Frances Jensen; Vice-President, Ross Gifford; Secretary-Treasurer, Mary Herries; Student Council, Jim Fay. Our poor sponsor was Mr. Hofmann. I wonder why he left after that yearl Our class was well represented in the High School Operetta. The freshman attendants for the Carnival that year were Frances Jensen and Ross Gifford. ' When we entered the next year as sophies, we boasted the largest class in high school with forty-eight members. Our officers were. President, Frances Jensen; Vice-President, Budd Williams; Secretary-Treasurer, Mary Herries; Student Council, Jim Fay. Miss Beasing (now Mrs. Dovel) and Miss Danielson were our sponsors. Carnival attendants that year were Frances Jensen and Larry Newton. We entered our junior year with President, Larry Newton; Vice-President, Ross Gifford; Secretary-Treasurer, Bob Graham; Student Council, Frances Jensen and Don Poland. Our sponsors were Miss Kelly and Miss Lynch (now Mrs. Zemanek.) Under the direction of Miss Kelly we presented our class play, Nearly Beloved. It was a big success. Out of our thirty- nine class members we chose Carolyn McVitty and Jim Fay to represent us at the Carnival. We entertained the seniors at the Junior-Senior Banquet. Hawaii was the theme. It was an event never to be forgotten. In September, 1954, thirty-seven entered P.C.H.S. as seniors. Only twenty-nine of these were of the original forty-three that started as freshmen in 1951. Our officers for our fourth and final year were President, Larry Newton; Vice-President, John Bennett; Secretary, Carolyn McVitty; Treasurer, Chuck Allen; Student Council, Ross Gifford and Helen Ann Chittick. Our sponsors were Mrs. Bratt and Mr. Winter. Jim Fay and Carolyn McVitty, King and Queen, and Larry Newton and Frances Jensen, senior attendants, were elected as Carnival royalty. Under the direction of Mrs. Bratt we presented our senior play, We Were Young That Year. We enjoyed Sneak Day, the seniors day to play hooky lawfully, the Junior-Senior Banquet, Class Day, Baccalaureate, and our last appearance as seniors at Commencement.

CLASS PROPHECY FLASHII The May 27, 1975 edition of the Earth Gazette brings you the World News of the Week. John Beyreis and his Polka Teers have just finished a two week engagement at the Brown Derby. It has been rumored that he will be held over for another two weeks. The Westside Antique Shop owned by Charles Wenzl was robbed early this year of a very valuable set of dishes thought to have belonged to a friend of his, the Queen of Sheba. Don Poland, one of the most famous drummers of the world, is touring Mars giving concerts and holding instruction classes for all who are interested. Lately Dean Matthews had a narrow escape when he was coming down a mountain pass driving one of the semi-trailer trucks of Matthews and Sons, of which he is the owner. Bob Graham was named American Farmer recently and is still residing near Pawnee City, where he was graduated from the Pawnee High School in the class of 55. Terry Allison who kept score at the Pawnee City basketball games is now with the Harlem Globe Trotters, keeping score. No wonder they are so good. Mrs. Robert Kleopfer, the former Nancy Bloom, has turned into a Kansas sunflower and is raising her own basketball team. Mr. and Mrs. Jim Fay (Mrs. Fay’s maiden name was Carolyn McVitty) are raising the opposing basketball team for Nebraska to play against Nancy's Kansas team. Charles Albers, who got his start in the Pawnee Greenhouse, now owns his own line of green- houses, The Albers Floral Company. Ross Gifford made a fortune the last of the year by selling his body to six or seven different medical schools. He is letting them fight over it after he is through. Wayne Slemons and Harvey Hallberg now own their own taxidermist establishment, thanks to their grand start in the biology class of 1955. Jenett Klepper is taking a vacation from her strenuous life as a singer of popular songs, at her ranch in California. Bob Rice, the banker of DuBois, was seen at the Stork Club in New York. Due to his discovery of gold in the Turkey Creek bottom south of DuBois, he has become a well-known figure through- out the world. The great volleyball stars, Marjorie Johnson and Norma Jean Burns, have just returned from their trip to the Earth Volleyball Show. They have been named Champions of the Solar System. Beverly Klepper, the owner of the Cosmic Stables, is now raising horses. She has become a well- known figure in the Earth and Mars Stables of finest horses. John Bennett has become the owner of the Znazzy Gert Cars. They are modeled after the first Gert he had in 1955. He says they are selling like hotcakes. Clarence and Lowell McClintock have become the owners of a ten thousand acre ranch in Texas. They bought it from Glenn Frahm who had to move to a smaller eight thousand acre ranch because of his health. Myrna Boltz is keeping books for her husband Dick Thiemann wno owns the Mars Rock Quarry. Charles Allen is a reporter with the Earth Planetarium. He has been looking for a girl to be Miss Planet, a job which seems to be very pleasant for him. Ardise Moyer ran for president of the Society of Women League. She was chosen by a large majority. Wayne Spier is still in dear old Pawnee High. He took over Mr. Ganzel's job as F.F.A. teacher. From all reports his classes are quite interesting. Larry Newton, better known as Lawrence New to all television listeners, made his grade when a television scout saw him in the senior play in 1955. He does commercials for John Bennett's Znazzy Gert Cars. Joanne Gilmore owns a set of Fly-in theaters between Earth and Mars. She seems to have quite the business. Doreen Slater is a jet hostess on the Mars flight. She says she never gets tired of her work; it's always interesting flying around in space. Miss Frances Jensen won the Planetary Golf Meet in the spring of this year and now is going on for the Solar System title. Miss Mary Herries won the title of Miss America and now is entered in the Miss Universe con- test. Ina Hunzeker is now working as an efficient secretary with Mars Stars Saxon, where Pauline Boman works as a model. Dr. Raymond Campbell has just been awarded the Pulitzer Prize for outstanding achievements in medicine for his great discovery of which came first - the chicken or the egg. Bill Panec signed a contract with the Band of America because of outstanding ability to play his tuba. Betty Atkinson has received her medical degree and retired to a ranch in Colorado. Helen Ann Chittick is the first woman taxi-jet driver between Earth and Mars. She says she really enjoys breaking the sound barrier, but some of her customers get kind of shaky. Which medical school will get Ross Gifford's body? Will Mary Herries be chosen Miss Universe? Watch this column and remember that if you don't see it in the Earth Gazette, it didn't happen.

The year, despite a not too good record of wins and losses, was successful considering in- juries and stiff competition. The boys showed spirit and fine sportsmanship throughout the season. Gerald McCall made all conference fullback. Larry Newton, Glenn Frahm, Jim Fay, and Dean Matthews made all conference honorable mention. Bill Kussman made all state honorable mention at tackle.
