Class History Looking back over the years, the Seniors of '57 find that there are only three who have completed the full twelve years in Shelby Public Schools. These are Nellie Cox, Gary Abbott, and Sharon Brazee. Although Benny Thelen, Mervin Ransom, Billie Simonsen, Randall Simonsen, and Ford Hill started in the first grade in Shelby, tney did not attend throughout the full twelve years. Ford Hill left after his first year, but the class then was joined, by Milan Lockard and Sue Doty. Milan Lockard did not return in the fourth year, and Billie and Randall Simon- sen left during the fifth year. The class, however, gained Larry Daum, Bernard Raskins, and Marlene McDaniel. Donald Wombacher from Lawrence, Nebraska, joined the class in the sixth year. Larry Daum returned to his home school, district number 15, and Benny Thelen moved into district number 21 for -he seventh and eighth years. During the second semester of the eighth year, Joan Vackoc from Colombus joined the class, but at the end of the eighth year, the class lost Mervin Ransom, who moved to Osceola, and Marlene McDaniel, who moved to Colorado. The freshmen year brought to the class both familiar and new faces. In addition to eighth grade graduates from Shelby, Larry Daum and Benny '’’helen rejoined the class, and from other rural schools cam Doris Kallenbach, Pat Beebe and Annabelle Jaax. From that time forward the class lost three members, and gained one. In the sophomore year Pat Beebe moved to David City. During the following summer Doris Kallenbach was married, thus did not return, and at rhe end of the first semester of the junior year, Joan Vakoc went to live in Florida. Virgil Keeler Joined the class in the fall of 195 The class of '57 ends its high school days with Gary Abbott, Benny nielen, Larry DaUm, Bernerd Haskins, Donald Wombacher, Virgil Keeler, Nellie Cox, Annabelle Jaax, and Sharon Brazee, who, by the way, is the last of the Brazee family to attend Shelby Schools over a period of 67 years. Class Prophecy It was a warm summer morning in 1997. I had been as- signed a human interest story by the New York Times. I was glad to leave the hot city, so I started west in my family size saucer to get my story. I was skimming over the Pennsylvania super-highway, when I spotted a large truck stalled on the freeway. Think- ing I might be able to give needed help and get my story, I landed. Of all people, it was Virgil Keeler. He said he had taken over his dad's trucking service. We chatted for a while and then I helped him fix a flat tire. I said good-by to Virgil and headed toward the great west. Continued on next rage 8
