When we got to first grade, we found Miss Morris there to answer all our questions. The future UClass of l95On consisted of Donna Canham, Fritz Cass, Dianne Chilton, James Dunne, Mary Lee Gray, Nancy Gray, Joyce Granseth, June Hough, Robert Hughes, James Kimmey, Jinny Nelson, Carol Jean Scherer, Clarice Siedschlog, James Wallis, Helene Wildermuth, Dean Phillips, John Dorsett, Annabelle Lynn, and James Lynn. We began to learn the fundamentals of reading and writ- ing. These arts, being new to us, were hard at first, but with the help of our teacher we mastered them. At the beginning of our second year our teacher, Mrs.Gill, welcomed us and DeniseMbKinley, Bonnie Masat, Elizabeth Egan, and Richard Ohlrich, the new pupils to join our class. With the addition of these there were also some who left: Dianne Chilton, Carol Jean Scherer, Joyce Granseth, James Lynn, and John Dorsett. We began to work with numbers along with harder reading. Every- day we looked forward to our fruit juice and crackers. Our third year, Mrs. Beggs taught us how to wax autumn leaves. Nancy Brown and Bobby Culves joined us in this work,but later on in the year Bobby Gulves left our class. Everyday we looked forward to sitting around in our little circle and listening to fantastic stories Hrs. Beggs would read to us. Mrs. Rolfe, our fourth grade teacher took us more deeply into the subject of mathematics. We also tried our skill at cooking cauliflower only to find that many of us did not like it. There were three additional mem- bers in our class this year. They were Louise Chamness, Eleanor Lupei, and Phillip Wagner. This same year we lost Bonnie Masat, Elizabeth Egan, Louise Chamness, Nancy Gray, Denise McKinley and Phillip Wagner. As we walked into our fifth grade room, Miss John- son was sitting at the teacher's desk with a welcoming smile on her face. Along with our new teacher, the many new faces added to our class were June Gramley, Jack Junkin, William Wallace, Jack Dominy,Nm1y'Louise Larson and Gordon Stoner. Annabelle Lynn, Jack Dominy and William Wallace left our group. A As we entered our sixth year in grade school, the spotlight fell on Miss Carter. This year we learned more about our country and our neighboring countries. The new grade also brought new pupils - Donald Cross, Donald Watts, and Mollie Hubbard. Eleanor Lupei left us to go back to Chicago. When entering our seventh year we werevery pleased to find Mrs. Rolfe, one of our former teachers, waiting for us. Physical education was an aotivitythatwas new. Also new to us was RonaldMeCarthy, who came from Chicago and returned there the same year. Leaving with him were Mary Lee Gray and Jack Junkin. Eighth grade brought us something new in teachers, Mr. Dillon. This year was in preparation for our new adventure in high school, and Eleanor Lupei and Bonnie Masat came back to join us in the fun. Gordon Stoner and Don Watts left us in our last year of grade school. Mr. Miller, Mr. Stephens, Mrs. Miller, Mrs.Bailey, Miss Hall, Miss Kirkham, hr. Hack, hrs. Williams, and Hr. Shaffer welcomed us to P.C.H.S. We, in turn, wel- comed Don Watts, Jean Kasowski, Dolores Lund, Betty Rogers, and Darlene Slauf to Join the nGlass of l95O.' Dean Phillips left as did Bob Hughes and Donnie Cross at the end of the year. After a few months we got on to the routine of changing classes, which was a different and exciting experience for us. The girls became very much interested in a new subject, homemaking, while the boys' thoughts were always on athletics. Having the privilege of attending high school activities made us feel very important. In our second year- of high school Ghuckwichs joined us. This year we all became experienced driversC?J by studying Man and the Motor Car. We also learned how to cut up animals in Mr. Hach's classes, in which a most enjoyable time was had by allC?D. Our third year brought us many new experiences and also two new members to our class, Roger Twait and Bob Hughes. Miss Dean, our English teacher, helped us with our first attempt at acting. After we had selected our play, Belles in Waiting, try outs were held in the gym. The following cast was chosen by Miss Dean and Mrs. Larson: Jinny Nelson, Helene Wildermuth, Bonnie Masat, Donna Ganham, Gharleswicks, BettyBogers, Darlene Slauf, Jean Kasowski, Roger Twait, Jim Kimmey and Fritz Cass. Dolores Lund was appointed student director. The remaining members of the class helped by serving on various committees. This year we also held our annual election of May Queen, and June Gramley was given this honor, with Nancy Brown and Eleanor Lupei acting as attendants. New experiences came to us also in our last year, such as senior class pictures, selection of caps and gowns, choosing our class colors and flower, and being guests at the Junior - Senior banquet and prom held in our honor. This year Louise Cleveland joined us, and Dolores Lund left to go to Michigan. After all these experiences we arehappily entering the future, and again our innocent minds have no knowl- edge of what lies ahead for the HClass of l95O.U PKWSFWFW F + O I. u ' r 's gk I,-L 1 x Eur at ie,-wwi g :':5.1.:r . , 1. :J 'g ', ww il : - W . ll -, x -...gg 1 , uVA v.:Y Ml , v .mg I .

' ' To Art Anderson goes Jim Dunne's ability to play basketball for use in future years. June Gramley bestows her ever present stag line to Elaine Read. June Hough leaves her ability to get straight A's to anyone who is willing to work for them. There are enough to go around. Molly Hubbard bequeaths her four-year Homemaking course to Ann Dockendorf whom she is sure will gladly receive it. BobHughesintrustshisstatelyheightto BillDimond.

We will be there in a few seconds, just long enough for me to give you the status of this trip.I It is the year 2050 and we are whizzing through spaceixzthelatest makeof rocket ships. We have come here to Plano to visit the great museum which is one of the largest in the world. We have just landed and are stepping out onto the ground. There's a restaurant across the runway. Let's stop for lunch before we start for the museum. Oh, I see 1t's named HHubbard's 0upboard.H I remember reading about it. The restaurant was started by Molly Hubbard in the year l960 and is now being very successfully run by her granddaughter. That was back before Plano be- came Capital of the United States. Oh, that clock says it is 2:20 already. The museum closes at four soperhaps we had better hurry right over and eat later. Here's a taxi we can take. We're just going down MainStreet now. Lock at that huge lighted sign--ULupei's Drugs.U Eleanor must have made quite a hit in Lord's way back wheng she finally got her own. I see that a revival of the great hit, UBig Women,H starring June Hough, is showing at the Plano Theater. I think it was back in 1965 that June made this great sequence to the hit, Ulittle Women,N Well, we're just pulling up in front of the museum now. I see by that sign over the doorway that it was erected by the Nelson Construction Go. I remember reading in the Kendall County News that Jinny took over the business and really showed the meniJ1the family how to run it. This great building proves it. Well, let's go on in. First, we come into the hall which is dedicated to the past presidentsof the U.S.A. Here aretheir'pictures --Lincoln, Hoover, Truman, and there's Jimmy Wallis. He was among the greatest men who have led our country. In fact oneof the finest things he did during his term was to move the capital of the United States to Plano. He had become so fond of the city that he couldn't bear to leave it to live in Washington. Oh, here comes the mechanical section now. Why, there is one of those flying saucersL It's really a big bubble, though. Yes, it was really June Gramley who was making them all along. In fact, they were made of her own brand of bubble gum, UJunie Gramley's Guey Gum.N And hereis something thatwe could never get along with- out. It is a record player especially devised to play short records of not over thirty seconds long. I see by the trade mark that it was oneof the many ingenious in- ventions of Jim Kimmey. Locket that old car! Why, it's over a hundred years old. In fact, it's dated 1937 and is said to have been owned by Jean Kasowski. Why, that car was famous back in 1950, too. There's the rocket ship that Jim Dunn flew to the moon and back. It looks almost as good as new. It was the fact that he brought the Football Hall of Fame. Here are Now we enter back the man in the moon that set the world on fire. There's that It's the one that on. Fritz became By the way, this Construction Co., famous piano I've heard sormniiabout. Fritz Cass did all of his practising the greatest pianist since Jack Fina. piano was constructed by the Nelson too. and stories of the famous football stars. There are Sid Luckman and Johnny Lujak, and, yes, there's nToothlessH Nicks who made history even when he was still in high school. all the pictures Here are some famous documents and papers. There are three history notebooks. They are said to have been salvaged from the ruinsof the old Plano High School. It seems they were discovered in the false bottom ofone of the lockers. Well, they had a few ingenious students then, anyway. We're just coming intoa.large room which is filled with files of old newspapers from all over the world. Here're the filesof the Kendall County News. I see here that back in 1959 Nancy Brown swam the English Channel, round trip, in record time. CThe wind was with her.D Much of her success was due toher trainer, Roger Twait, who yelled encouragements from the sidelines. And here is a small item about the constructionof the North Pole by Helene Wildermuth. The world is grateful to her for this. And then it was Dolly Cleveland whoumde the first rocket flight to Mars. She must have really liked it there because she never came back. It says here that after John L. Lewis diedcd'pneu- monia, it was Don Watts who took over his position. Don must have forgotten how nice those half days of school were because he kept the coal coming regularly at all times. Bonnie Masat was alsochosen.from the second year shorthand class back in l95O to serve as the ,Secretary of State. Good for Bonnie. I see Betty Rogers made a name for herself too, when after Alaska became the 49th state she introduced the Rogers Homestead, out north of Plano, as the 50th state. Why, there's a picture of Bob Hughes! Some joker must have hung it there or else he did himself. Hmm--here's the stuffed animal section. This whole collection was made by Darlene Slauf as a result of her many dangerous trips into far away lands for these many wild animals. It's four o'clock already! What do you say we leave and get something toeat. That little place across the street looks very inviting -- Canhamfs Canned Hams. Let's stop and get ones Anything originated by Donna is bound to be good. , We're back oncnu'rocket ship now and just thinking over some of the things we saw in the museum at Plano, Illinois. We learned a lot about many famous people. It seems that the graduating class of l95O made quite a name for itself in this world.

The team was led by Captain Lee Osbron, a snappy guard who was second to Jim Dunne in the scoring. Other lettermen whomadeup the squad were Fritz Cass, rebound ing center, Don Heller, dependable Jim Wallis,andjWayne McQuade. The Reapers averaged 42 points per game asto their opponents 46 points per game. This gives evidence that the Reapers were much stronger than their 6-l? record would indicate.

Jackie Green's help as student director was invaluable. The story centers on Angie, who had never had a date until her seventeenth summer. The ponular Jack Duluth, however, notices herg and from then on the whole summer is different. Kitty, the youngest sister, is frankly disgusted at the turn events are taking. Margaret helps her, but Lorraine high hats Jack becausehis father owns a bakery. Lorraine is greatly hurt after a blind date with Martin, a sleek and unnleasant oerson who sneers atfall the family customs and small town friendly ways. As the play goes on, Angie's Jealous friends, Jane and Margie, mix things up so Jack gets the erroneous idea that Angie is interested in Tony. Tension mounts as Angie vainly waits for Jack to call her. As the day of leaving for college arrives, the plotting girls lose out, and Angie and Jack clear up their difficulties. The play ends on a heart warming note of happiness and understanding as Angie leaves her wonderful seventeenth summer behind and moves on toward the good things of college.
