I, Betty Lou Paulson, will to the Junior girls my cooking ability, so that they will put lemon juice in their lemon pies. I, Roxanne Florence Stahl, will my diamond to Ardelle Tjentland, so Kenwyn will not have to give her one. I also will to Joan Engelson and Jean Parker the headaches and joys of my editing career. I, James Roy Schrnidt, will my curls to Myrna Donahue so she won't have to pin her hair up every night I Fay Esther Wehmeyer will my perfect English to Patsy Hedman in hopes that she may improve hers I Eugene Clair Wolfe do will my high grades in my Senior year to Merlin Hansen in hopes that he may graduate We the Senior Boys bequeath to the Junior Boys our football ability in hopes that they may have a perfect season next year win at least one game We the Senior Girls bequeath all our chewing gum to Mrs Grundsted in hopes she may keep the Senior Class together next year Witnessed this twenty ninth day of January in the year nineteen hundred and fifty two by Slow Poke Shrimp Boats Little White Cloud Domino polo ec? 0 fQ65 Since we Roxy and Ladle have become co owners of the largest corn factory in Hol lywood and have made our first million cans of corn'7 we are now able to visit all our old classmates We decided to make Hawaii our first stop As we boarded the ship we ran into Anita Oleson who was the ship s head nurse She chose this profession upon graduating from Franklin Nurses School and also to get away from her many suitors who kept popping the question We chatted awhile with Anita and learned that Eu Gene Wolfe was the ship s doc tor He now lives at Honolulu because he figured I-Iawau was the best place to raise cane We arrived in Honolulu three days later eager to meet Mr Bezoier and his Grass Skirt Choir He was rehearsing a few of his numbers as we approached Much to our amazement we saw Ruth Madson performing one of her solo numbers We waited until she had finished and then went over to talk A tall blonde girl was at her side Ruth introduced her to us as Connie Lerohl Connie said her father had given up trying to raise a football team for Storden and was now raising hula hula girls We journeyed back to our ship and sailed the next morning On our return trip we stopped at the lonely Isle of Capree where we found La Verne Bauman and his wife Algona re acting the story of Cheaper by the Dozen and are now starting on their second dozen Back in Hollywood we formed a searching party for Jim Schmidt LeRoy Hansen and Reuben Thor Madson J The Three Musketeers who had decided to become hermits be cause of their tragic love affairs back in Storden When we found them they were in the midst of writing a play closely related to the Elizabethan period of literature hoping to be come famous as Shakespeare was They told us we could find Mr Bridges replacing by popular request Howard Duff as Sam Spade Much to our regret we were unable to locate him His secretary who to our surprise was Bev Donahue told us his home and work kept him far too busy Bev was married to a millionaire oil man but because of what she was taught in good old Storden High about The Woman s Right to work she decided to take ad vantage of her privilege Driving through the Great Salt Desert we came upon a lonely ranch house miles from clvilization Here we found Mr and Mrs Grundsted They informed us that they moved here because Mr Grundsted had to move as far as possible from cars after the experience he had teaching the kids in Storden Mrs Grundsted was kept busy giving instructions on how to cook and sew to her four children She said she would ask us to stay for dinner but she couldn t find her planning sheet Our time was running short so after reaching Salt Lake City we took an airplane to Storden 9 I . .
