The students have helped with the yearbook through their contributions of pictures and sub- scriptions, Last, but not least, we wish to thank our sponsor, Miss Anderson, for her patience and guidance.

CLASS HISTORY On September 4, 1950, fifty-eight scared but eager freshman started on their long trek towards higher learning, Mr, Steirlin and Mrs. Wilson guided us on our trip which sometimes had had going, There were many good scholars but the first part of our journey was not all work and no play, We had a costume party where everyone became, acquainted with their new classmates. The Homecoming festivities were running high as Alyce Smith was selected to represent us as Homecoming attendant. After a rest from the first leg we again re- sumed our enlightening journey with fifty-two wiser and more confident sophomores. XVe again chose crew members to steer us with the guid- ance of Miss Porter and Mr. Ostendorf, WVe chose Marilyn Alexander to represent us in the royal family at the 1951 Homecoming. It was a big night when twelve of us served for the Oriental Junior-Senior Banquet, Those serving were Marilyn Alexander, Jim Bossard, Alyce Smith, Bill Frost, Mary Ann Kuhl, Glen Le- rum, Sharon Evans, Gary Weber, Kay Thomas, Jerry Christy, Edna Wacker and Melvyn Shoe- maker, Half of our journey was over now but we had enthusiastic anticipation for the last half ot the journey which was greater than ever. Fifty-two were still traveling with u as we entered our junior year with three very co-oper- ative and understanding sponsors: Miss Buck Miss Kraemer and Mr, Hanson, This year we chose Elaine Fulton to be the Homecoming at- tend:-mt. ln November we 'put on our class play, Ring Around Elizabeth. We were all excited when we received our class rings but our pockets felt ra- ther empty. In the spring we gave the seniors a banquet with the theme, Stardust Garden, The final part of our journey was resumed. Our class now consisted of fifty-five who now had the vim, vigor and vitality to make this the grandest year of all, with the help of our spon- sors-Miss Kraemer, Mr. Hanson and Mr, Nelson. Marilyn Hanefeldt and Jim Bossard were crowned King and Queen of Homecoming. The senior girl attending Marilyn was Alyce Smith and the boys were Gailyn Thomsen, Melvyn Shoe- maker, Glen Lerurn and Keith Bessmer, On April 12, we slyly slip-ped away from P,H,S, to -Omaha, where we had a day full of fun. June Graduate, our senior class play was presented on April 30, 1954. On May 116 was Bac- calaureate. On May 18 we ended the last part of our happy but trying journey as we marched up on the stage to receive our diplomas, These are the members of the Pirate crew that have answerd roll here sometime during the last four years: Marilyn Alexander .... 1 2 3 4 Virginia Allen ..... .. 2 3 Keith Bessmer .. .... 1 2 3 4 Orville Blunck ..

They were placed last in the Northeast Nebraska Conference. Even though the Pirates: lost all their games except one, they played some very exciting games during the season. Four of our games were lost by a margin of less than 3 points and one by 4 points. Plainview was defeated by two points in a terrific basketball game at Randolph, Randolph led the first quarter by a score of 12 to 14. Plain- view came out the second quarter with a lot of stamina, but couldn't keep it up throughout the quarter and was one point behind at the end of the first half by a score of 26-25, The second half was closer yet, and kept the crowd on their feet quite a -bit, The score was tied at the end of the third quarter with 43 points each. Plain- view stayed ahead through the last quarter un- til the last 3 minutes of play, when Randolph scored enough to win-52-50. Several other exciting games were played, two with Creighton, one with Pierce and two with Neligh, the second of which we won in the district tournament at O'Neill with a score ot 63-59, Our next game in the tournament was lost to Ainsworth, There were eight lettermen in basketball this year, Those receiving letters were Melvyn Shoemaker, Glen Lerum, Gailyn Thomsen, Lyle Ashburn, Jack Bomar, Bill Frost, Edward Prange and Gary Lingenfelter, SEASON RECORD Plainview-37 Plainview-4.2 Plainview-51 Plainview-53 Plainview-44 Plainview-49 Plainview-43 Plainview-39 Plainview-52 Plainview-50 Plainview-46 Plainview-52 Plainview-52 Plainview-52 Plainview-57 Plainview-G2 Plainview--40 Creighton-39 Pierce-58 Wayne-73 Laurel-77 Bloomfield-52 South Sioux City-87 Creighton-44 Piercew42 Blair-72 Randolph-52 Hartington--59 Bloomfield-59 0'Neill-67 Laurel-59 N eligh-61 N eligh--57 Ainsworth-53 INDIVIDUAL SCORING Melvyn Shoemaker ..
