Being so much a part of our every year's school events, we the Cardinal Staff of '52, have tried to make this the best of annuals. Some of the work was hard and tediousg such as gathering information, putting it together and getting the right number of pages completed by the deadline date. See- ing the pictures and material brought back memories that made us reminisce. There was also just the fun of working together and accomplishing something. In fact it was more pleasure and fun than work, and We hope you will find this same pleasure in the Cardinal of 1952. We wish to extend our gratitude to the businessmen who so willingly contributed to our yearbook. Without their co-operation the publication of the Cardinal would have been impossible. We wish to also thank Miss Joan Wilson, our faculty adviser, for her patience, assistance, and understanding.

PRUPHECY Well, the big day has finally arrived- it's the day the state fair starts in the thriv- ing metropolis of Red Dog Gulch, the capital of the state. If you hadn't heard, it became the capital city three years ago when Tom Cole, running on the Republican ticket, Che's finally seen the lightl became governor. He decided that rather than go to all the work of moving to St. Paul, the former capital, he'd have them move the capital to him. If Mohammed won't come to the mountain, the mountain must come to Mohammed, is Tom's theory. We understand that his campaign manager, Bob Art Kenney, is given credit for Tom's being elected-Art exerted the tremendous influence 138388351 in the right places. As we board the bus for the fair grounds, we notice that the driver is none other than LeRoy I'1l getcha next time Perrizo. He got his experience back in his high school days-dodging trees in the park with his gas truck. Seated behind him we notice his faithful wife, Catherine, still keep- ing a watchful eye on him. As we look out of the window, we see The Meyers Brothers Service Station cover- ing one square block and two stories high. It is one of those ultra-modern styles, with girls on roller skates for help, If we look closely, we might even see Don and Roy chasing two of them. Farther on we see a billboard with pict- ures of Henry Boots and Julie Lueck. The billboard advertised Samson and Delilah which is coming soon to the Redwood Opera House. In the back seat, Roger Routhe, presi- dent of the Ford plantation in Brazil, and Dave Perrizo, president of the Italian divis- ion of General Motors, are still arguing about the value of Spanish versus Latin. Of course, they can't understand each other, because Roger is speaking Spanish and Dave is speaking Latin. Carroll Young is acting as interpreter-he translates it into Pig-Latin. As our bus arrives at the fair, we see a very special reception committee. Martha Fennern, La Vonne Matter, and Jean Rad- datz are putting on the Mexican hat dance. Only trouble is-Martha has the hat on her head. As we strut down the midway, we see the merry-go-round operated by Dick Budik, who invites one and all to come and have a round with Budikf' On the merry-go-round Shirley Kraemer is practicing her bareback riding. Off to the side we see Tom McDon- ald calculating how far the horse? travels during each seventeen revolutions. Now off to our right we see the one and only Denny Gramentz trying to ring the bell to win a box of cigars. This is the only place where he can get cigars, because the merch- ants all think he is under age. Up ahead, Jim Limburg is tossing some little rings on big pegs, trying to win a big teddy bear. As we look back we see Dorothy Gee Keil and Audrey Krueger Hale walking through the gates with their children. Im- mediately after they enter, we hear an an- nouncement that a new record attendance has been attained. Now We are about to witness the great- est freak show on earth. Out on the stage, we see Sam Fowler barking. Taking tickets, is Nancy Fosshage who is attracting quite a crowd. Inside we see Russ Hanson, the world's tallest midget, and Bob Wolf, the world's shortest giant, seated on the stage gawking at the audience. Over to the right, we see Marlyce Wheeler, the most talkative woman. She hasn't stopped talking since she was a sophomore in high school. Farther on to the right, we see Tom Aufenthie's World's Largest Harem. He has given us a complete record of the fates of his wives. Out of 200 girls, 100 died of broken hearts, 23 have committed suicide, and 14 are un- accounted for. Watchout girls! He's got that look in his eye! The big moment has arrived! It is now time for the stock car races. After we buy our tickets from Letha Larson, we are ush- ered to our seats by Salona Jensen. It looks as if we are just in time, for as we are tak- ing our seats, we hear Cy Welch announcing that the first race is about to begin. There seems to be a little trouble getting the cars lined up. Car number 17 seems to be out of control. The reason is soon found to be that Daniel Horejsi has been waving to Barb Bluhm and Jo Bunge. This difficulty is soon overcome-the girls simply get into the car. The cars do not seem to have much pick-up, except for car number 17 which seems to be jet-propelled! Could it be be- cause of the girls? Too bad this is just a test run. They would have won for sure. Now, as the actual race is under way, immediately a Ford, a Studebaker, and a Buick gain the lead! Driving them are Rog- er Miss'em Tetrick, Shad Hit'em Hal- vorson, and Neil pick 'em up Larson. Shad, who has driven the first forty miles in twen- ty six minutes and five seconds, now pulls into the lead! But the people are watching an old Chevy instead. The driver is Bob 'tMadman Towler, who is not driving in a
