LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT We, the Class of 1949, of Stevensville High School do hereby make, publish, and declare this to be our last will and testament, hereby revoking all former wills and codicils by us at any time heretofore made. The class, as a whole, wishes to express its gratitude to the faculty, for its never failing perseverance and its outstanding guidance during our struggling years. To the Juniors, we leave the ability to procure a considerable sum for an extensive Senior trip. The Senior boys wish to leave to the Sophomores their undying devotion to English Literature. To the Freshmen, we leave the ardor and cheerfulness for those remaining years until that fateful day in the year, 1952. Edward Nozicka wills his Shakespearean aptitudes to Reginald Schedler, and his ability to play basketball to Jerry Krahula. The pleasing bass voice of Ray Mak is being bestowed upon Ada Marie Jones and his somnolence to Donna DeMorrow. Gertrude Molenda bequeaths her sweet disposition to Arlene Wutzke and her ability to stall in class to Mr. Barkmeier. Eugene Marshall wills his modest ways to Bob Hauske. Ken Walski wills his ability to keep a girl to Vernon Mueller and hisphy- sique to Darwin Dehring, and track ability to Mike Mahoney. Alan Radde leaves his gracefulness to Donald Butcher. Lucille Bischoff bequeaths her serious-mindedness to Bonnie Mahoney. 9

JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY At the beginning of the year, 1946, there were sixteen anxious people to be introduced to the duties of high school Freshmen. Determined to make the pro- per commencement, we held our class elections and the Presidential honor was bestowed upon Ralph Markwald, and Michael Mahoney occupied the office of Vice- President. The position of Secretary was filled by Beverly Siewert, and Glenda De Ford undertook the responsibilities of Treasurer. Other class members included: Donna Lee and Mary Ann DeMorrow, Patricia Monachesi, Lowell Mallett, Vernon Mueller, Louis Sarone and Harry Zick. We suffered a decrease in our membership when Louis Saroni left our school and the DeMorrow twins departed on a trip to the southern states, but we were later granted two new students, Ina Jean Coleman and Steve Anderson. Miss Margaret Watson guided us through an interesting year which terminated with a picnic at House of David Park. The next year, having taken a step up the ladder, we returned as Sophomores with sixteen members. We lost the attendance of Glenda De Ford, Patricia Monachesi, Ina Jean Coleman, Dean Baxter, and Scott Drumbeater, but in their places, we gained Darlene Goodrow, Doris Lucker, Donald Butcher and George Connerty. We again held class elections and the results favored Beverly Siewert as President, Donald Butcher as Vice-President; Michael Mahoney, Secretary; and Jerry Krahula, Treasurer. Finishing another successful year under the supervision of Mr. Doyle Barkmeier, we enjoyed the annual picnic at Indian Lake. In the fall of 1948, nineteen ambitious Juniors returned to continue their courses. Seven girls and twelve boys were enrolled, including three new students, Alfred Allison, Charles Avery and Donald Walski to supersede a former class- mate, George Connerty. Elections proved successful with Donald Walski being exultant as President, Lowell Mallett, Vice-President; Doris Lucker, Secretary; Jerry Krahula, who was reinstated as Treasurer and Beverly Siewert and Michael Mahoney sharing honors as Historians. Activities throughout the year consisted of the selection of class rings, with which every individual was greatly pleased, and the dramatic performance of the annual Junior Play which was presented under the skillful direction of Mrs. Kenneth Myers, also the class advisor.
