I'll write a simple rhyme. It's up to you to write the score; I really haven't time. You're quite a class of seniors now. Fifteen, you're brave and strong. And now you're on your upward flight I'm sure you won't go wrong. And just a pace behind them here You Juniors race along. Before you know it you will be As gallant and as strong. Now on occasions such as this We always look behind And savor incidents of yore We hope no one will mind. In no position to find out The choicest bits of bother, I hope you each will come to me And tell me of the other. Through years I've gathered quite a store Of stories gay and funny. I wouldn't trade them off, you know For any kind of money. When I retire from this mad whirl And settle down to ponder. I'll take them out, yes, one by one And chuckle till folks wonder. Now won't I have a heap of fun When Osage Beach I think of? Remember how Renee and Bubbles Put me on the brink of? Another thing that I'll recall When Osage comes to mind— How Bob and Orin came to like The Tonganoxie kind. And how some girls that I may name Down there where all is piney— Claressa, Jo Ann and Carolyn All fell for handsome Tiny. Marsha, too, so I've been told 'Mid his admirers counted. I'd put her in the other verse But meter won't allow it. Jocelyn is a pretty name. Ask Shannon if you doubt it. Moundridge is a nice town, too. Remember, don't you flout it. The sentiment remains the same For Scotty Lorlovick. Except the name, instead, is Pam. This gave us quite a kick. About a boat there's something fine; It takes your breath away. It's Bill, the boatman, Judy says. She rode most every day. Nancy wouldn't tell us then Nor since we have returned Which one she thought the most of. We know they weren't all spurned. Delmer favored many girls With his attentions daily; And Sharon, a Missouri lass. He flirted with most gaily. We missed the four who didn't go, Pat, Peggy, Bill and Bonnie. I'll have to look elsewhere, I guess. For laughs for my manana. Now Juniors, Sponsers, Mothers all. Accept our fervent thanks. For this most pleasant evening Take thanks and yet more thanks. I hope it hasn't bored you much— This halting, faltering trifle. I bring this now unto it's close No more yawns you'll need to stifle.

Mrs. Eichorn was our brave teacher. There were twenty-one pupils in our struggling class. They were Suwayne Pearson, Sharon Sue Edwards, Linda Lou Puyear, J. C. Deny, Mary Ellen Hill, Hugh Cordell, Rickey Thorton, Douglas Helton, Phyllis Bitner, Clar- essa Walker, Joan Wilson, Jo Ann Teeter, Karen Abney, Nancy Winger, Dolly Kistler, Virgil Glavin, Delmar Parks, Craig Cave, Gary Brady, Judy Whipple, and Ronnie and Neoma whose surnames we can't find. Mrs. Munger taught us in the second grade where there were but twenty-one pupils in our class. Sharon Dorsey started to school with us that year. In the third grade we went to the old stone school house and Mrs. Archer was our teacher. Eighteen pupils worked their way out of the third grade forward into the fourth grade. Mabel Belshe and Frank Wibright joined the merry group. Mrs. Barnett taught fifteen pupils in the fourth grade. In the fifth grade we moved to the new school building with Mrs. Tollman as our teacher. Roll call included fourteen pupils. The new members were Mary Michael, Odelia Limon, and Barbara Adams. There were fifteen of us in the sixth grade. Mrs. Watson was our teacher then. Galen Winters, Vivian Hadley and Pat Abbott joined the happy tribe of sixth graders. During the seventh year there were thirteen pupils and our first man teacher, Mr. Cales. Marsha Rorick, Robert Cadenhead, Henrietta Holman, Orin Florence, and Stella Houck joined our ranks. Twelve students enrolled in the eighth grade and we had two teachers. Mrs. Davidson taught us in the morning and Mr. Donart taught our afternoon classes. Twelve students who received their diplomas at the close of the term were Judy Whipple, Jo Ann Teeter, Nancy Winger, Delmar Parks, Joan Wilson and Claressa Walker, Sharon Dorsey, Pat Abbott, Henrietta Holman, Marsha Rorick, Orin Florence, and Dale McDaniel. On May 18, 1956, twelve students now prepared to take the important step to high school the next fall, accepted their diplomas from the superintendent, Mrs. Jack York. Fourteen shy freshmen after surviving the horrors of initiation began to work industrously towards their next diploma. Donald Lorlovick and Russel Shober, from Big Bow; Bill Manning, from Lycon, Colorado; Shannon Dimitt and Carolyn Cockrum, from Manter joined us. Class officers were president, Delmar; vice-president, Marsha; secretary, Carolyn; treas- urer, Bill; and student council member. Shannon. The class elected Marsha as their first foot- ball queen candidate. Everyone with the exception of Russel Shober returned for the sophomore year. Class officers were president. Bill; vice-president, Jo Ann; secretary, Claressa; treasurer, Judy; and student council member. Shannon. Judy was elected basketball queen candidate. Peggy Simpson from Canton, Oklahoma, and Bob Wilson from Ulysses, joined us in our junior year. This was a busy year for all of us because we had charge of the Christmas decorations and program, Valentine's Day, and the Jr. Sr. Banquet and Prom. The theme for the banquet and prom was Moonlight and Roses . The group danced to the Cimarron High School swing band. We also put on our first play entitled Clementine . Class officers were president, Delmar; vice-president, Claressa; secretary, Jo Ann; treas- urer, Judy; and student council member, Marsha, Jo Ann was elected junior candidate for basketball queen. Our final year of high school was highlighted by our senior play Hillbilly Weddin ', and the senior trip to Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri. Our homecoming queen candidate was Claressa. Shannon was class president, Judy was vice-rpesident, Claressa was secretary, Delmar was treasurer, and Marsha was sutdent council member.
