LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT We, the Senior class of 1955, being of sound mind and strong physique, but weak pocketbooks, bequeath the following, our only possessions worthy of mention, to our Junior friends: I, Mary Huhe, will my desk in the assembly to Mariam Albers so that she can be first in the hot lunch line. 1, Geraldine Ryan, will my position as post forward to Sandra Amundson. I, Gary Hove, will to Norvin Anderson, my ability to catch up on much needed sleep during school hours. We, the Senior boys, will our many gripes and grievances in good old RHS to Richard Armstrong, I, Helen Anderson, will my pony tail to Cheryl Aschim, so that she can be a full-fledged member of the Ridge- way Mustangs. We, Joyce Smith and Lorraine Gilbertson, will our ability to get Mr, Shileny off on a tangent so that the assign- ment can be carried over to the next day, to Harlan Bakken. I, Eugene Andrus, will my excellent cooperation with Mr. Shileny to Wayne Hovden. May he always remain as faithful as I was. I, Shirley Thompson, will my gavel to Wayne Kreitzer to help him keep order in Student Council meetings next year. I, John Dahle, will my bashfulness and quiet ways to Richard Ladwig.

I, Leona Snyder, will my ability to become engaged in my Senior year, to Marie Rinken. I, Arthur Samec, willto Mary Ryan my ability to conduct my time wisely so that I finish my assignments in school and can spend a gay, carefree evening at home. We, Leona Snyder, Shirley Thompson, and Mary Huhe will our many talents to Treva Sime if she can find any that she doesn't already have. I, Joyce Smith, will to my sister Jean, my ability to be on time for the bus so she won't have to walk to school. I, Lorraine Gilbertson, will my badly worn basketball shoes which are well accustomed to our slippery gym floor, to Delaine Vatthauer, To the teachers: Mr. Seim: A more pliable Senior class so that he has less trouble making important decisions. Mr. Shileny: We retum the poor grades we acquired in our three years as students under him so that he can use them in future classes, Mr, Anderson: Two champion basketball teams that won't let him down, Mr, Rober: The assurance of a 'second helping' so that he doesn't have to go hungry, Mrs. Ingersoll: Ten dollars so she can sponsor another whole page in next year's annual. Mrs. Cook: Added hope that a few more sewing machines and other equipment will be added to the Home Eco- nomics unit in the near future. Mrs. Owen: Excellent vocal groups that will stand as high in her regard as Ossian Public, To the cooks: A bottle of alka-seltzer to chase away the indigestion due to Mr, Rober's generosity following bio- logical disections. To the janitor: Another year of friendly companionship in the 'faculty lounge' providing the same teachers return. We hereby authorize Mr. Rober as sole administrator to see that this will is carried out. Witnesses: Norma Jean Mikota Signed ----V-The Senior class. Geraldine Ryan Leona Snyder Class Rings W. H.
