Richland High School - Richlander Yearbook (Richland, MO)

Text from Pages 1 - 110 of the 1950 volume:

DEDICATION We, the Seniors of 1950 dedicate this annual to our parents, teachers and the Board of Education, which have so strived to send us to school so that we may obtain an educa- 1 1 tion. Through our twelve years of school they 1 have sacrificed much of their time, labor, and finances to aid us in our field of learning. I We wish to take this opportunity to thank them for their efforts. Ll F I WA ' V ' � t V i I I I E I i i ANNAH M.

At the end of these short twelve years there are only nine of us to graduate from the same school, namely, Nola F. Polly, Bobby E. Cruts, Dwight Roam, Billy R. Trower, John Warden, Reid Goforth, Lois Jean Crick, Barbara Osborne, and Clay Howlett. We got acquainted with Dick and Jane in our readers and a small portion of what was ahead while in the first grade. Our second year was taught by Miss Payne, who, with a helping hand, led us to the door of the third grade. Our third grade was spent with Miss Wescott. Here we had some additions to our class, one of whom is still with us, Lois J. Manual. This was a very pros- perous year for all of us. We learned to write instead of print and we thought we were really big. Miss Lemming was our fourth grade teacher. She also helped in the Music Department, therefore, we all learned to sing very well. Miss Sellars, who became Mrs. Brightwell during the year, taught us in the fifth grade. The change from Sellars to Brightwell was too great for us, so most of us continued to call her Miss Sellars. During our fifth grade we had three additions, Hazel Pemberton, George Gray, and Ralph Perkins. During our sixth grade year, we did not know whether we were coming or going. We had more teachers than we could count. Among them were: Mrs. Nuckles, Mrs. Cannon, Mrs. Clark, Mrs. Heard, and Mrs. Queisenberry. The additions to the class during this year were Geraldine Long and Kenneth Howlett. In the seventh grade it seemed strange to settle down to just one teacher. However, Mrs. Simpson proved to be very capable. It also seemed strange to be on the third floor with all of the highly educated people, but we soon learned to dodge paper wads as well as they. Several class- mates entered during this year. Billy Lander entered our class and liked us so well that he is still here. We entered into the eighth grade with Miss Robertson as our teacher. By this time we were getting used to the third floor and became more mlschievious every day. Bill Thomson joined us during the last half of this year. This year ended with one of the biggest events in our lives, our eighth grade graduation. We also gave our first play, “Elmer.” Our freshman year brought many new students. Among them were Donna Mae Pruitt, Jennie L. Edwards, Stella Ashworth, Bobby Roberson, Pauline Anderson, Lillian Woody, LaNelle Coyle, Shirley Brittain, Geneva Satterfield, J. R. Roam, Dorris Clark, and Jack and Roy Crossland. This was a year which was very much enjoyed by all of us. We were known as the “greenest freshmen” that had ever been in RHS -- so the teachers said. The Sophomore year was one of the biggest years in our high school career. The new students who entered during this year were Billy Joe Bowen and Bill McCann -- this was a great catastrophe for our class. Loretta Manes also entered our class during this year. During our Junior year we had a grand time. We all enjoyed our Junior-Senior Banquet very much, although we did have to work to pay for it. We had a swell time presenting our Junior play, “The Wild Oats Boy,” and it turned out to be a great success. Some of the teachers thought we skipped once in awhile, but we wouldn’t of thought of that — strictly business. Our Senior year will be one of long remembrance, although we haven’t done nearly so many pranks as in the years before. We had one addition to our class during this year, Mike Larinan. This year we have all worked hard, and we think, have achieved much. i 1 i i fl ] I ’ f T ’ ’ 1 LOIS JEAN CRICK Class Secretary 3 Class Reporter 2 Class Play 1-4 Volleyball 1-2 Softball 1-2 Glee Club 3 Mixed Chorus 3 Home Ec. 1-2 Cheerleader 4 Annual Staff 4 BILLY JOE BOWEN Basketball 1-2-4 Baseball 1 Softball 2 Voc.

The Bears started in an unsuccessful manner but ended up very successfully. Under the able leadership of Coach Clyde Ruble, the Bears took first place in the Sub-regional Tournament by defeating two of the strongest teams of this section, Crocker and Stoutland. Although the Bears were defeated by Warsaw in the Regional Tournament 39-36, to end the season, the entire club gave outstanding performances in the latter part of the season, winning all of their last 15 games. The squad consists of Captain Bobby Cruts, Jerry Manes, Jim Davis, Bobby Callahan, Edgar Tipton, John Warden, Buddy Kissinger, Jack Walker, Dwight Roam, Billy Lander, Bill Trower, and LeOren Simpson.

RICHLAND CHAPTER OF THE FFA On September 1st and 2nd, Harold Dame and Wayne Wells took six Duroc hogs to the Springfield Fat Stock Show and Sale. Harold took second and tenth in the single class and Wayne took ninth. Harold also took third place with his pen of three. Eighty- three hogs competed in the Duroc Class. Danny Smith took seventh and eighth place with his steers. George L. Baker took eighth place and Wayne Wells took sixth. A group of three placed sixth for the school. We plan to take hogs and beef calves to St. Louis next fall. We held our first annual F.FA. Father-Son Banquet on March 8th. It was a grand success with 130 in attendance. Tracy Dale from the Department of Education was guest speaker. The chapter received title to forty acres of land donated by H. E. Warren, Jr. We plan to set demonstrating program on the forty-acre plot. We already have 2000 pine trees set out on the plot. The boys organized and participated in fire protection and received instruction from members of Missouri Conservation Com- mission. There were 10,500 trees set out by individual boys. Eight boys bought official F.F.A. jackets this year — the first ever secured in the Richland Chapter. The chapter held initiation ceremony on May 1st with parents and guests present. We are planning a camping fishing trip this summer. i i i i i i r Qr'.vUa (LVvVj FRONT ROW, left to right: Louise Manes, Delilah Timmerman, Betty Hein, Marilyn Sue Murphy, Doris McClay, Connie Powers, Audrey Carter, Sharon Ramsey, Glyna Appling, Peggy Williams.
