Mary Lou Johnson was a good skatej on all the latest things she was up to date. Barney Krom was big and tall, this aided him greatly in basket- ball; to Pete, the coach, he was always on call. Now the sad tale of Bob Farmer can be told, how he and his fellow classmates thought they were bold, but it seems that their stories to Mr. Croston were not sold. Now Donna Wertman was never one to brag, but in a certain class she seemed to lag, the tale was never told how she hit a snag. To Mary Anderson with her quiet ways, we look to her and praise, for all her well spent days. As we look upon Sharon Frost, we realize-not all was lost, as she too had paid the cost. Now to most, Joyce Wetherald was known as snow white, but to certain people that wasn't right; so she took off in a mad flight. It is with lasting memory we look to Beverly Knox, who never tarried or fell on the rocks; yet she was the only one mho knew what was in 1116 box. Wayne Frederickson's ambition was to be a wheel, but to him that was some ordeal; as to this day it still is not real. ’«Veil, so Dolores Mills, left a few unpaid bills; she still experienced some wonderful thrills. Fay dean Snethen went with Dick SnoTr because he was a good joe and many places they did go. Sharon Sleeper was editor of the Meg Ma Staff, and from her fellow workers took no riff raff; although she had many a good laugh. Marlene Irvin was going to quit school, but she too knew the rule, so just played it cool. Norma Banta to Mary was a friend, and money to her would lend, now in heaven her life she will spend. Conrad Hassel was quite a card, although many of his jokes were barred, when he got done telling them he was tarred. Roland Rogers was once caught in a drift, but to his aid his friends came swift, so for each of them he gave a gift. Joan May was always tired so from her job was fired, but is still admired. Cathy Miller was small and quiet, but when she got going, she was a riot. Margie Johnson was never one to sneer, and from her classmates that brought a cheer, which also helped in her career. When there was somewhere to go. Myrtle Stockman was never slow, and her grades were seldom low. When asked a question, Lester Wbrkinger would never say nope, even if he didn't know the answer he had hope.

It is with tearful eyes that I write this sad tale of the ever- lasting, in memory that is, of the Senior Class of 1951» Who would ever think that such a tragic thing as the Q bomb would ever descend upon our alma mater, Sandy High School? It was a warm, summery day—so peaceful—and I was so alone, because a most hazardous situation had arisen. The 3 bomb dropped right directly on the administration building of Sandy High School. As we look back regretfully to those Seniors of 1951» we hold in memory the things they stood for. I visited their graves, decorated with our class flower, and slowly but believingly, read the epitaphs on their tombs. Amen Here lies Tommy Bennett, who will never win a penant; he might have become a member of the senate. Here's to Barbara Page, who will never grow old with age; and we hope with the angels she'll be all the rage. It is with happy eyes we look at Barbara Benson, whose know- ledge, grades, and cunning, through these sacred years have kept her running. Ardella Garrison wanted to choose nursing .as a career; we thought great things of her we'd surely hear. Everett Moore played the guitar; you could hear him near and far. Troy Cawvey we never one to beg, until one day he stumbled on a peg, only to hurt his leg. Leota Pounds, like to live in little towns; thus, she was awarded many crowns. Lillian Heilman just couldn't seem to win; she had to choose between school and the Drive Inn. Roberta Chapman decided there'd be no greater fame, than becoming a housewife and changing her name. When it was all the rage, for the girls to be engaged, Patsy Gehrts set the stage. Shirley Megrath followed that well known path, and now a reward she hath. Neal Ross was never at a loss; he was always one to show who was boss. Julian Paluck was nice, but short, that's why the girls he never did court. Although in basketball, Mervin Bergstrom wasn't always the one to do the scoring, he could prove his playing wasn't boring. Ila Newman was quiet and serene; to David she was known as the queen, the sweetest worus she ever heard were Goodnight Irene.

 When we think of George Dunbar, we also consider his car, it was nice, but it couldn't go far. A1 Johnson knew all the places on the map, to him they were a snao, for he knew every mountain and every gap. Bob Barlow was admired for the knowledge he had acquired, but that wasn't what he desired. It was Carol Layng, who in the choir sang, and out of all her subjects got a bang. Here's to Clifford Ehlers, who made a hit with the fellers, and had the best sellers. We give you George Hale, who wanted to attend Yale, but to the professors was no sale. To us all Marva Irvin was a twin; now in all the games she was sure to win, she left her sayings to the next of kin. To most, Diane Wolfe, was known as Red, and also it was said, that to fights this often led. Now Betty Jo Caswell , was kind and sincere, no one ever gave her a bum steer, and in our hearts we hold her dear. Leo Weisdorfer was always on call, of course, that was only to Dona Gomoll, his favorite sport was basketball. When Mary Plaster was at a tender age, she married Glen Page. Kenny Klawitter like the dames, not to mention any names, but his favorite was Barbara James. Doris Teetz was quite a kid and there were many things she did. To school life. Tommy Seaman couldn't adjust, later he found he must. Gerry Taylor with Bob had many a date; aid was sure never to be late, and with him that really did rate, because he hated to wait. About his subjects Gordy McCreary was leery; and this made him quite weary.
