They rank well up in scholastic standing and hold a fine record in nt'.endance and promptness. The class is well represented in basketball, football and track. Four received major letters in football and two in basketball. In music the class has been quite active and show much promise for their senior year. The Purple Masque has six from this class next year. With this talent and some not previously discovered, the play, They Gave Him a Co-ed'' was presented on November 18,-to a highly appreciative audience. This is described in detail on page 31. Th class also contributed of their talent and effort toward the success of the One-Act Plays in the Festival on March 16. They were responsible for the biggest event of the year. The Style Show, Dream Island. This beautiful and gala occasion brought joy to an immense crowd which numbered many persons from afar. Complete description may be found later in the book. As a fitting climax to an active year they gave the annual Junior-Senior Banquet, followed by the P-om. The high school gym was very beautifully decorated for the occasion. With the experiences of the past three years and their very evid‘ it ability this class should carry on and be a credit to S E H S.

Here is a likely spot with a soft sloping bank to lie on while the finny denizens of Old Beaver are deciding to take that succulent and inviting worm. Will 1 ever make the little wife regret that she took so unco-operative an attitude this morning when I announced that I intended to catch the dinner for tonight. There you are fish, grab a hook. Get away from that bait you little punk, swim home and send your grandad. There that's a good bite. Pshaw! he went away. Ho hum, this is a warm, sleepy spot, z-z-z-z-z- —Well, well, well, I must have nodded. That was a wonderful banquet. I didn't think there would be so many here, especially of the old class of 1948, even if it is the twentieth anniversary. What a fine gym the old school has now, just the right size to house a huge crowd like this. Let's see the program. I just missed two talks, one that of Supt. Warren. Oh, well, I missed a lot of them during high school. Wonder if I can pick out all of the old class. That looks like Don Fisher, it is. The tables turned for little Fish'' as his strong arm tactics got him a job as bouncer in an exclusive club owned by Wayne Johnson. Jerry McKay has passed his civil service examination and is now working in a bureau in the Federal Government—a Furniture store. Melba Myhre, we find is a proprietor of the new Gypsy Tea Room and doubling as Crystal the fortune teller. She uses a crystal ball with two holes in it so she can go bowlig on her days off. Tony Brenneis despondent after being divorced by his third wife, enlisted in the army and was asked by the examining doctor if he has any scars. Tony replied No, I haven't any scars but I can give you a cigarette. We found Harold Potter happily maried and after all these these years he was not henpecked. He related the reason as My wife goes her way and I go—hers. Morris Dannelly is an internationally known lawyer. During his last important case his client received a suspended sentence; they hanged him. Marilynn Goodman is a hard working woman now as a midget window cleaner. She goes around cleaning people's eyeglasses. Dorris Hill is still just as lazy now as she was back in high school. She is so lazy that instead of brushing her teeth, she just puts her brush up to her teeth and goes to see a tennis match. Larry Collins, the boy most likely to succeed, is now a tramp riding the rods of the St. Edward Limited. He accosted us relating a sad tale of how he hadn't had a bite in days. So we bit him. Max Flaherty is now a great philosopher and likes to travel in his own car because he says he runs across so many interesting people. continued on page 15 — 12— Cl a S’j ef SOPHOMORES Front Row: Shotkoski.

It didn't take long for them to get back in the groove and start the old grindstone for another year. By the time school was aut in May they were bubbling over with the anxiety of being Juniors next year. Though not the most outstanding class this year it contributed greatly to the major activities such as football, basketball and track. Talent was also shown in music and dramatics. It was the honor of the Sophomores to have the three cheerleaders chosen from their class. On November 11, the tradition of giving the Freshman a party was carried out.

However, after they were formally initiated into the student body, it didn't take them long to catch on to the ways of the rest of the students. They started off by showing their talents in the field of sports. Although their He-Men were slightly on the conservative side, they were outstanding in their accomplishments. However, their talents were not confined to sports. Several were admitted into the Purple Masque, and most of them participated in some phase of music. A few were selected to go to the Albion Choral Clinic and the annual District Music Contest. Probably the most memorable event of the school year was the party given for them by the Sophomores on December 11 th. With all these things accomplished they are looking forward into their remaining three years in St. Edward High School.

O. T. C. examination while in high school, is now finishing his twentieth year in the Navy as chief mess steward. He was demoted when he spilled soup on the admiral even though it was navy bean soup. Corinne Lightner, blue and melancholy from her recent separation, joined the circus to become a sword swallower but troubles mounted as she developed a chronic case of hiccups. Junior Taylor is now the chief of police in St. Edward after a stretch with the Federal Bureau of Investigation. He claims to have found the solution to crime by passing laws legalizing gambling, murder and kidnapping. Ramona Iverson recently was selected Mrs. America of 1968 as the ideal mother and housewife, but her girlish bashfulness prevented he from collecting her trophy in front of the huge awe-stricken audience. After graduating from Wayne Teachers College, Jim Jeffryes is now head football coach at Sing Sing. He has challenged West Point for a game to prove that the pen is mightier than the sword. He is now Preacher Robert Barbour preaching the gospel of God to a large Church which accomodates 10,000 souls—and just as many heals. Dan Reardon is now a man of means as he is a gentleman farmer. He even has his scarecrows—his wife and daughters—change into evening-dresses at dusk. Our likeable Looie Flaherty is now employed by Saxton Fifth Ave., New York, as a dress designer but the only designs she has is picking her husband's pockets. Marion Brown's inventive ingenuity finally paid dividends as she invented with the help of Bob Hope, a new tooth brush out of steel wool so that it will put iron in the blood. Billy Raitt, president of the senior class, is still a politician at heart, but in a different catagory—pulling strings in a corset factory. Dick Green is a city official under the title of custodian of debris—leaning on a long handled broom. The mayor promised him an opening soon and he fell into a manhole. Donna Bently's artistic qualities sent her far in the commercial art field as her paintings are being hung in a special place in Joselyn Memorial Museum. The paintings read men women . Delores Werts is now a model at Towers Inc. Modeling lingerie—a sort of a model of the undie-world. Marilyn Speas, although as changeable as the weather itself, is now working for the Weather Bureau because she is an expert on wind. Don Nelson after receiving a concentrated course in English in SEHS graduated from the University and has been selected as professor of languages— (must we sey more). —15— PRIMARY GRADES Front Row: Cruise, Iverson, Cummings, McBride, Adams, Werts, Saunders, Buck, Reynoldsen, Case, Reardon, Cruise, Johnson.

The Girls Glee Club furnished music for the Junior Class Play and the small groups sang for other occasions throughout the year. November 19-21, six students attended state music clinic in Kearney where Riberta Tierney, Norman Scott, Milford Myhie, Jerry Warren and Bill Raitt sang in the Chorus and Lois Dannelly played clarinet in the band.

Junior Class Play Con't. from page 32 name electrifies the group of students and then the fun market begins. He's thrown overboard in a maelstrom of riotous happenings that would be chaotically bewildering were it not that they were so cleverly knitted together into a perfect story. When the real Dean came along he was mistakenly thought to be an escaped lunatic. All ends well with the real Dean of the college and Dean Brown becoming friends of all. Under the able direction of Miss Francis Walroth, the play was a great success and the laugh sensation of the year. —22— { $nruTloHAL tkMfiTE. (5J P 1HK fQ F.H.A.

It was under the supervision of Mrs. Remmereid, the first semester, Mrs. Corcoran, the substitute, and Miss Olson, the second semester. The Chapter had a very active year. In the fall, fifteen girls attended the district meeting in Albion where Darlene Campain was elected District Treasurer. Later nine girls went to Fremont for the State F.H.A. Convention. Jo Ann Swanson was elected State Parlimentarian. The F.H.A. of 1946-47 presented the department with a life-size doll to use in studying child development. Since the baby was in need of a name, a school-wide Name the Baby contest was held. The name selected by the third year girls, who were the judges, was Pamela Sue. A major project of th F.H.A., together with the F.F.A., was selling hot dogs and pop at the football games. They also sold candy at the basketball games and during the noon hours.

The MAROON was published weekly in the St. Edward Advance and kept the public posted on the activities of St. Edward High school. The Public Speaking Class edited the paper under the supervision of Miss Walroth the first semester and Mr. Edney the second. A completely new staff was chosen every six-weeks so as to rotate the following staff positions to all; editor-in-chief, assistant-editor, sports, club news class news, department news, music news, grade news, office news, typists, and humor. The MAROON has grown and improved with the school. This staff has successfully upheld the fine reputation of previous staffs. Together with the teachers and students, this group has edited some of the finest MAROONS ever written. As well as serving the High School and community, the paper also comes in contact with the alumni of S.E.H.S. all over the United States. The experience of writing this paper brought out talent in the Senior Class that could be used quits successfully in the field of journalism. —27— The Scribes Take Their Quill • • Corine Lightner Assistant Editor Mary Lou Flaherty Business Manager STAFF Milford Myhrc Associate Editor Editor Assistant Associate Business Manager Advertising Sports Editors Art Editors Classes Activities Photography Typists Board of Strategy Sponsor —28— Jerry Warren Corrine Lightner Milford Myhre Mary Lou Flaherty Larry Collins Wayne Johnson Jery McKay Don Moore Sonny Edmonds Donna Bentley Darlene Evans Dolores Evans Ramona Iverson Marion Brown Connie Clark Norman Scott Hal Hasselbalch Billy Raitt Marilyn Goodman Donna Potter H.

March 5 brought about the main event of the year, the finals of the interclass tournament, sponsored by the S E Club. The games started March 1 and after the elimination the Juniors and Seniors were left to play the finals. The opening game pitted the Freshmen against the Grammar Dept., in a nip and tuck battle. The Ninth graders were on top, however at the final gun. The Juniors emerged victorious after a hard fought battle, but rivalry was forgotten and all enjoyed the dance which followed.

Allen Strong Mrs. Lucile Clar Milford Myhre DREAM ISLAND On April 8 and 9 the eyes of St. Edward citizenry were treated to a gorgeous spectacle of enchanting beauty long to be remembered. A miracle of colors and setting and achieved by the juniors and the direction of Mrs. And-derson, and Mr. Peterson, to such an extent that the audience might well believe they saw a Dream Island before them. The setting was so arranged that an island appeared to float among beautifully tinted clouds. From the stage to the orchestra fell cascades of fluffy clouds delicately shaded from a very light pink to a fascinating lavender. It was such a scene as a pilot might see in flight on an extraordinarily beautifuly day. Above the stage more clouds rose in mounds of ethereal glory surmounted by the Dream Island itself, which ascended in majestic beauty to its highest point in the form of the finely chiseled columns of a Grecian temple. Floating softly over the island were small nimbus clouds underlining the theme words, a maste piece of sky-writing. To the left, at the height of the pillars appeared a harp, symbol of grace and lovliness overhung by fronds of leaves in the classic style. On the right stood a solitary column its stately beauty offset by another leafy bower. About these stately columns played an ever-cahnging light, like the magic rays of the Nebraska sunset, while, from nowhere, angels in the latest fashions materialized on the peak of Dream Island . The angels were supervised by Miss Olson, our very capable Home Economics instructor. First to descend the island and gracefully to tread the aisle of clouds, were the sophomores, lusciously fitted out in the latest heavenly apparel of the New Look. Immediately after this parade of beauty, followed the archangels of the fashion world the juniors and seniors, the girls clad in exquisite formals. MAY DAY FESTIVAL On May 6, a very appreciative audience was delightfully entertained by frolicking rabbitts, hopping frogs, busy little bees and beautiful butterflies flitting about in a garden of the loveliest flowers. It all happened in the court of the Queen of Flowers, graciously portrayed by Joyce Adams. She wisely settled the quarrel between the wild flowers and those in the garden. Assisting her in this interesting little fantasy were the other children in the first four grades. All the children played well their assigned characters and the Maypole dance was a spectacle fo beauty and rhythm. The Department Choir very ably sang Liberty Lane and Lead on Young America as a fitting finale to a splendid performance. Miss Jane Peterson, Mrs. Warren, and Mrs. Clark who taught and directed the music, are to be commended for their untiring efforts in making the program and occasion long to be remembered.
