Junior History H38-59N In the fall of 1958 forty Rocketeers appeared in- cluding four new adventurers--Arlene Gorham, Cecelia Hayden, Walter Wilkens, and Genevieve McConnel. On board were two new railroad executives--Miss Ella Mae Pierce for English and music and Miss Louise Remley for homemaking. To direct our journey we elected the following conductors: Wilbur Winegard, Walter Wilkens, and Alice Liphardt. Soon after the locomotive was started, the pas- sengers began to look for extra-curricular activities to take up their spare time. Those who took time out to enter sports were: Bob Dings, Freeman Elliott, Charles Johnson, Bill Lyons, Bill Mack, Don Phillips, Eugene Sproston, Donald Westpfahl and Wilbur Winegard In order to cheer them on to victory, Helen Dunlap an Doris Hofer acted as cheerleaders. A Our Junior class railway play, WDol1ars to Dough- nutsn, now dominated the scene. Ten members of the crew were chosen to act while the remainder helped to make it a success through other duties.
