There were happy years as well as discouraging ones and we feel that we owe a great deal of thanks to our parents and teachers who urged us onward and tolerated us through these long and often trying years. In 1946 eight eager children started to kindergarten under the guidance of Miss Fannie. They were Anna Mae Burgess, Patricia Bryan, James W. Cruse, Ruth Ann Gebhardt, Gerald Laker, Mickey McGraw, Barbara Means, and Norma Lou Spellman. Later the same year, Barbara Means moved to Salisbury. In the fall of 1947, twenty new faces were added and we thought we were real important. The new pupils were: Kenneth Billue, Marvin Case, Carol Coy, Betty Ann Cruse, Beverly Drew, Bonnie Engle, Gerald Goins, Lowell Greening, Ann Jarvis, Donald Johnson, Judy Loth, Amy Meyers, Betty Moore, Donna Nickerson, Roy Pegelow, Frances Rasmussen, Beulah Williams, Rita Winn, Charlotte Woolridge, and Ralph Woolridge. Again our teacher was Miss Fannie. We lost Beulah Williams. September, 1948, found us all back to school ready for the second grade. Our teacher was Miss Rosalie. We had gained Earline Boggs, Bobby Brubeck, and Larry Moore. Later during the year we lost Amy Meyer, Patricia Bryan, and Bobby Brubeck. Our third grade teacher was Mrs. Bahr and there was an enrollment of twenty-two. We were joined by Catherine Bloss, Velma Cooper, and Jim Vallee. In 1950, we were really growing up. Our teacher was Mrs. Effle Lou Smith and eight new pupils were added. They were: Velma Britt, Bobby Brubeck, Mary Ellen Friesz, Howard Gebhardt, Phyllis Harlow, Jim Kothe, Ronald Lusby, and Janice Nichols. During the term. Bob Brubeck and Howard Gebhardt moved away. Mr. Keven White was our fifth grade teacher in 1951. We were Joined by James Bagby, Peggy Blacksmith, Barbara Fletcher, Barbara Holbrook, Roberta Minks, Beulah Williams, and Larry Weiseman. This time our teacher quit and decided to Join with Uncle Sam and his boys. Mrs. L. B. Vaughn finished out the term. By the time we were in the sixth grade in 1952, we were really aetting biq heads. This was the first time we got to change classes when the bell rang. Our home room teacher was Mrs. Farthing Mrs. Kressig and Mrs. Vance were our other teachers. This year we were Joined by Gay Lee Bush, Meta Faye Dugan, Richard Fry, Bobby Fulkerson, Mary Kaye Hilt, and Victor McGee. In the seventh grade there were a lot of new faces—Temple Ammon, Peggy Blacksmith, Bobby Brubeck, Carolyn Buffington, Nina Cambell, Linda Clayburg, Wilford Eastin, Deam Hammons, Georgia Harmon, Kent Harmon, Eldon Pentod, Judith Powell, Tommy Scott, Robert Still, and Kathryn Wilkey. We lost Peggy Blacksmith, Catherine Bloss, Bob Brubeck, Nina Cambell, Bonnie Engle, Dean Hammons, Mary Kaye Hilt, Gerald Laker, Gay Lee Bush, and Robert Still. Nlneteen-fifty-five was the big year. Soon we would be starting to high school. Our eighth grade teacher was Mrs. Vance and there was an enrollment of forty in the class. We gained Bobby Brubeck, David Drew, Lavelle Henderson, Lyndon Phillips, Buddie Pippin, Linda Kaye Ratliff, and Bobby Widdicombe. Later that year Bobby Brubeck, Gerald Goins, and Bobby Widdicombe moved from Salisbury. A short while after graduation we learned that Temple Ammon had passed away as a result of a long illness. In the fall of 1955, we entered High School; had to go through the torture of initiation, and it seemed that our nickname, the Green Freshmen, was really suited to us. We found that during the summer, we had lost David Drew, Buddie Pippin, Tommy Scott, and Beulah Williams, but had gained—Peggy Blacksmith, Donna Branstuder, Doris Crawford, and Sonny McSparren. During the term, Doris Crawford left. By 1956 we were beginning to get acquainted with our school. This year Wilford Eastin was missing. New faces were—Clarence Arnold, Gilbert Hayes, Robert Kleinmeyer, Raymond Miller, John E. Page, and Eugene Welch. Judy Matthews Joined us later on. Nine teen-fifty-seven found us back to the old grind again, but we had lost four of our former classmates—Peggy Blacksmith, Anna Mae Burgess, Petie Cruse, and Judy Matthews. Additions were Carolyn Freese and Lucy Vaughn. Judy Matthews came and left during the term. We also lost Carol Coy. At last we have reached our highest goal of becoming Sophisticated Seniors. During the summer we lost Donna Woolridge. Donna Branstuder walked down the aisle to become Mrs. Eagan and through a correspondence course, plans to graduate with us. Three pupils that went to Kindergarten in Salisbury are graduating—Ruth Gebhardt, Mickey McGraw, and Norma Spellman and out of the first grade, seven are graduating. They are Kenneth Billue, Marvin Case, Betty Cruse, Donald Johnson, Judy Loth, Frances Rasmussen, and Rita Winn. We hope the students that follow us have as much fun, as well as education, as we have had and want them to keep the colors of the Purple and the Gold shining brightly, always.

It is now the year 1963, Many things have happened that I see. All of the graduates of 1959, Have found their places in the world and are all doing fine. So everyone pay very close attention. And each one of them I will mention. Clarence Arnold that baseball great. Is now in the big leagues, on a team that's first rate. All of the pitchers do quiver and quake. When mighty Clarence steps up to the plate. Kenneth Blllue is a soldier bold. Many tales of his bravery have been told. With a rifle he is quite a shot. And for the enemy he really makes it hot. Donna Branstuder is now a wife. She and Jerry have a good life. The six little Eagens keep Donna busy. Chasing them sometimes makes her dizzy. Carolyn Buffington is a model fair. She is famous for her ash blonde hair. She has had many suitors before her kneel. But she sacrificed them all for Raymond McNeall. Marvin Case has Just returned from the moon. He is planning to move there soon. If you go out on a night that's fair, Look up at the moon and wave at Marvin up there. As operator of a reducing salon we find Betty Cruse, Her motto is You have nothing but pounds to lose. Betty will see you through thick and thin. The sign on the door says-IF POSSIBLE, WALK RIGHT IN. Linda Clay burg is a famous opera singer. For her autograph her fans do linger. Recently Linda's popularity soared. When she discovered the long, lost chord. As Mrs. Carl Rasmussen we find Carolyn Freese, She is now telling all the little Rasmussens about the birds and bees. Just call on Dr. Mary Friesz if you happen to feel ill. She is always ready with some kind of a pill. Mary's pills are guaranteed to do the trick. They'll make you well even if you aren't sick. To Dickie Fry work is a Joy, His Physical Education class is all girls, not one single boy. Dickie also does some coaching at night. If you think he's coaxing too, you're probably right. Ruth Gebhardt is a registered nurse. If you ask for her services be sure to have your purse. It isn't that her fees are high. She Just has to charge more because many of her patients die. Jimmy Guilford and Linda Ratliff are now married, Jimmy's occupations are many and varied, Linda stays home and keeps the home fires burning, She waits eagerly each night for Jimmy's returning. Georgia Harmon is keeping the typewriter keys hot. She's at work each morning on the dot. Georgia keeps busy typing and filing. While all the time at the boss she's smiling. Kent Harmon arises at daybreak, Does all the chores before most people wake. Kent knows he has one early booster. His faithful, untiring 4 o'clock rooster. Gilbert Hays is a Navy man. He's sailing the seven seas while he can. Gilbert always keeps his seasick pills handy. When they get in the middle of the ocean he eats them like candy. Lavelle Henderson is busily working on the farm, At 5 he is up with a milk bucket on his arm. Anita Washam is Lavelle's wife. They are very happy with married life. As a famous scientist we find Barbara Holbrook, She is also the author of a chemistry book. Her husband, Larry Dodd, builds bridges that most men fear. But one of them did last as long as a year. Iimmv Kothe is an agricultural teacher. Giving tests is his main feature. All of his students seem to like him fine, So does his wife Karen and the little Kothes who number nine. We find Robert Klelnmeyer flying a Jet, Even the man in the moon he has met. Robert says he is going to return next year. He wants to try living down here. Judy Loth is the owner of a large restaurant. Go in and order anything you want. Let us remind you to be sure to tip. If you don't—Judy will flip. Mickle McGraw now is a famous star. Up the ladder of success he has travelled far. With Liberace he has played many auets. But most of the applause, Mlckie gets. Sonny McSparten's wealth is in his muscles, Donald Johnson manages all his tussles. Together they really make a team. Sonny says boxing keeps him on the beam. Gerald Miller said he would never get hooked, But he saw a little blonde and his goose was cooked. Gerald is now the father of twins, He Is really learning to use safety pins. Raymond Miller is a basketball star, He can hit a goal both near and far. He is becoming quite famous for his Jump shot, The number of points he makes is quite a lot. 20 Roberta Minks works hard each day. She's a good secretary-or that's what her boss will say. Roberta is planning to change her name. She wants hers and the boss's to be the same. Tanice Nichols has flying Angers, On the typewriter keys not one ever lingers. Janice types each day without fail. Her Job is answering Pat Boone's fan mail. John Page is on the Olympic team. He's about the fastest runner you've ever seen. John's feet really fly over the ground. On the last stretch he really picks 'em up and sets 'em down. Eldon Penrod is owner of a large ranch in Colorado, It is known as Penrod's Meadow. His wife Judy Kleinmeyer likes Colorado fine. And for Missouri she does not pine. Lvndon Phillips is operator of an amusement park. Its co-owner is his wife, Marie Clark. Business has fallen off since the ferris wheel got stuck. Cheer up kids—we all have bad luck. Judy Powell is cashier in a Kansas City bank. For this Job she has S. H. S. to thank. Judy keeps all the books balanced right. The mistakes she makes are very slight. Frances Rasmussen is Mrs. John Burton, To marry John she cut out all her flirtin'. Fran treats John Just like a king. She'll crown him with a dlshpan or any old thing. Norma Spellman recently performed her Arst operaflon. She'll never get the chance to operate on her own relation. Norma hopes to profit from all her mistakes. Her pro At is going to be small if too many mistakes she makes. Ammv Vallee is a college professor. To get an E in his class. Just be a good guesser. Jimmy's worst fault is being so absent minded. He puts his pencil behind his ear and then cannot find it. As commerce teacher, Lucy Vaughn reigns supreme. Her classes are held together by efficiency at the seams. Why is Miss Vaughn the most popular teacher of all? Because she has her eye on the handsome, young principal. Larry Welseman will paint your house for you. He will paint it any color from rose pink to blue. Larry is now opening a shop of his own. Quite a talent for painting he has shown. Eugene Welch always wanted to fly. He says if birds can-so can I. Kathryn Wilkey has made him settle down. She helps him keep both feet on the ground. Rita Winn could paint so well. That they hired her to paint the Liberty Bell. If you want your portrait painted give her a ring, Rita can paint Just most anything.' 21 TYPING I ENGLISH IV PHYSICAL EDUCATION Classroom Scenes COACH STUDY HALL HOME ECONOMICS PHYSICS s H Officers S SENIOR OFFICERS SEATED: Lavelle Henderson, President STANDING: Carolyn Buffington, Secretary; Judy Loth, Reporter; Kent Harmon, Vice- President; Barb Holbrook, Treasurer JUNIOR OFFICERS Bill Manion, Reporter; Kay Keen, Treasurer; Harold Gebhardt, President; Kathy Washam, Secretary; Jim Nagel, Vice-President FRESHMAN OFFICERS SEATED: John Ratliff, President; David Baer, Vice-President STANDING: Sarah Robertson, Secretary; Harriett Shawk, Re- porter; Patricia Scheiderer, Treasurer SOPHOMORE OFFICERS Sharon Kyes, Treasurer; Gerry Mason, Vice-President; Diane Griswold, President; Rita Tillerson, Secretary; Rita Leber, Reporter 24 FIRST ROW: Jim Hutchinson SECOND ROW: Bill Manlon, Neil Tebbenkamp, Kathy Washam, Jim Nagel, Ken Hutchinson THIRD ROW: Vernon James, Sharron Wescott, Donald Binder, Carroll Gaubatz, Mack Terry FOURTH ROW: Ronald Linneman, Keith Kaneer, Kay Keen, Donna Bartholomew, Charles Walser FIFTH ROW: Bobby Williams FIRST ROW: Susan Bentley SECOND ROW: Marie Clark, Harold Gebhardt, Sallie Bartholomew, Bonnie McCollum, Carol Rice THIRD ROW: Billie Helmlch, Maurice Nelson, Nola Bartholomew, Judy Kleinmeyer, Suzanne Schelderer FOURTH ROW: Karen Viers, Linda Blllue, Boyd Jordan, Leroy Nickerson, Charles Sanders FIFTH ROW: Merle Dameron, Ruben Tisdale 26 FIRST ROW: Verle Spellman SECOND ROW: Patsy Bartholomew, Bill Elmore.
