Always-Off-Stage The Stage Manager______________Always-Off-Stage The action took place in the Wilkens mortgaged farmstead. ACT I______Morning ACT II_____Noon ACT III Night Little Nell is an old-fashioned Melodrama. It took place in the days of the Showboat on the Mississippi. You will recall reading in such novels as Edna Ferber’s “Showboat” how these old floating theaters traversed the entire course of the inland rivers, stopping wherever a wharf afforded an opportunity to folk and wherever dwellers along the banks afforded an audience for their plays. You will recall also how the audience joined whole-heartedly into the spirit of the show, applauding the valiant hero and winsome heroine, and hissing the evil plotting of the villian. Musical numbers by members of the Senior class served as entertainment be- tween acts. Gloria Kallhoff Fred Cox Ruthe Johnston _ John Kessler _____ Don Main John Mills ____Bill Coker 10 Senior Skip Day An enthusiastic group of Seniors set out at 4:00 a. m. on Friday, May 20, to Denver for their skip day. We stopped at the “Pepper Pod” for breakfast, then went on to Denver ar- riving at 9:00. We then went to the zoo and had great fun looking at all of the animals. This took up quite a bit of time, but after that, we went to the Fitzsimmons hospital, one of the largest hospitals in the United States. We found his a very nice place to go, as it was interesting as well as educational. After dinner we visited the U. S. Mint and found it a very interesting place. The only difficulty was that the guides were forced to carry a gun to keep some of us away from “you know what.” We then took an extensive tour through the Denver Post and were very much amazed at the complicated process involved in putting out such a paper. Whew! They do it every day. One of the most interesting places we visited, was the museum. We couldn’t go through all of it, but what we did see, we enjoyed immensly. Of course, the boys wanted to go to Lowry Field, so some of the girls went along, while others went shopping. We couldn’t go to Denver without seeing a show, so after supper, we all went to one. It was good, but we were beginning to get a little tired by the time we got out. We pulled out of Denver at a rather late time of the night, but we were a tired and happy bunch of Seniors, well pleased with all we had seen and done, on our one and only, skip day! li Senior Class Last Will and Testament I, Fred Cox, do hereby will my reddish hair to Helen Coker so her’s will be more natural. I, Lila Humphrey, do hereby will my pleasing personality to Donna Emery so she can get her a man early in life. I, Erma Jean Bierma, do hereby will my blushing and quiet manner to Barb- ara Harshfield. I, Betty Hughes, do hereby will all my previous boy friends to Delores De- Priest, because I’ve found the one I want. I, Beth Finecy, do hereby will my job of straightening the boys’ collars at music contests to Arlene Keuter so Phillip Merrill won’t be so embarrassed. I, Ruthe Johnston, do hereby will my ability to get a man and keep him to Mary Lee Weir. I also will my ability to grow tall to Carolyn Kennedy as I think she is too short. I, John Kessler, being of sound mind and weak heart do hereby will my abil- ity to get my car to Jim Freeman so he can take care of Carolyn Kennedy after I’m gone. I, Margie Winter, do hereby will my blooming personality to Donie Stock so that the halls of S.H.S. will still ring with laughter. I, Don Main, being of weak mind and sound body, do hereby will my ability to get along with English teachers to Tom Kennedy as I have been trying to get rid of it for a long time. I also will my false teeth, brass ears, and bright look to Gene Kramer as he looks too intellectual. I, John Mills, do hereby will my ability to resist all temptations of evil to Billy Hoewing because he’s too young to have any fun, and I think it’s high time I was having some. I, Bob Roberts, do hereby will my ability to talk fast to Lyle Kirts, as he could stand to speed up a little and I could get by without quite so much speed. I, Richard McVay, do hereby will my ability to cut a neat rug to Roland Kirts so he can have fun with all the gals, too. I, Marvin Stark, do hereby will my ability to get A’s in Ag. to Bill Hoewing as he needs this ability. I, Hattie Anne Huber, will my ability to grow tall to Bonnie Lee Goedker. I, Gloria Kallhoff, do hereby will my ability to argue to “Beetle Bomb’’ Kirts so that when Mr. Maxwell teases him, he can hold up his side of the argument. I, R. L. (Dick) Warren, being in perfect health, strong in body and weak in mind, do hereby will my beard to Delores DePriest’s future boy frined so she won’t forget. I, Bill Coker, weak in mind but strong in back, do hereby will my ability to go to school only four days a week and to write my own excuses to any of the poor, dumb Freshmen. I, Tom Neilson, do hereby will my curly hair to Herman Grauholz, because his is too straight and mine is too curly. I. Warren Kennedy, do hereby will my height to Lloyd Boyer, because being as small as he is, he might get trampled and anyway I’m tired of brushing the top of door ways. I, Albert Poff, being of weak mind and loss of memory, give, devise, and be- queath unto Lloyd Boyer my curly hair. I, Alberta Meyen, do hereby will my quietness and bashfulness to Barbara Harshfield because she needs it and I’m tired of it. We, the Senior Class of forty-nine, being of sound mind and body, do hereby will our ability to get along with all the teachers and speak to everyone to the Juniors so they can carry on our good name. We also will all our old tablets, saw- ed-off pencils, erasers, ink blotters, slightly chewed bubble gum and our charm- ing dispositions to the Freshman class so they can start out well-prepared for the terms. We, the Senior boys, do hereby will our ability to co-operate in all our class meetings to the Junior boys so they wil lget a lot done, too. We, the Senior girls, do hereby will our ability to stay on pitch to the Fresh- man girls so they will have a good music group for four more years and we also will our ability to go through school without our studies interfering with our en- tertainment to the Sophomores so they can have as much fun as we. We, the Senior Class of Sutherland High School, in the City of Sutherland, in the State of Nebraska, being of sound mind and body, have made and published this Last Will and Testament. 12 Senior Class Prophesy Here we are in the year 1969, twenty years after the graduation of a truly fine senior class from Sutherland High. Well, let’s scout around and see what the forty-niners are doing now. There’s a rumor that Tom Nielsen has his own dairy farm and that he hired Barbara Kallhoff to help him run the milking machines. Fred Cox and John Kessler never were contented to date Sutherland girls so they go to Mars in their super deluxe rockets every Saturday night to see their gals there. Erma Jean Bierma, who was president of the senior class, is now president of the National Nursing School. Her motto is—“If the body is still warm—we’ll cure it.” She is also romanticly inclined with a red headed doctor. Bob Roberts, who always was a fast talker is teaching the African Pygmies how to speak Eng- lish in three easy lessons. You’re probably wondering what happened to Beth Finecy. Well she went to Nebraska Wes- leyan and gained fame traveling with their orchestra as their famous piano soloist. Jim Cox graduated from N.U. and established his super-deluxe drug store in Sutherland which incidental- ly takes up a whole block and he now has Mr. Anold working for him. Then Beth quit college and she and Jim settled down on a modern farm. They have ten children so far. You know her Mother’s biggest desire was to have 50 grandchildren and Leland is still a bachelor. Albert Poff is a wealthy bean farmer in Kansas. He also went to Japan as a missionary for six months, but gave it up. Too much competition. His competitor, of course, was Hattie Huber. Hattie has been married twenty times. You know Hattie never could make up her mind about which one she truly loved. Most of you see Dick Warren quite often. He is living here in Sutherland. He isn’t married yet. He and Delores DePriest are still busy fighting and making up. Gloria Kallhoff went to Oregon to work so she could be near Pete. She is working as a model for a very famous magazine called “Lookie, Lookie.” She and Pete are engaged, but she doesn’t want to give up her career so they are going to wait twenty more years. She always said she’d never marry until she was sixty! Marvin Stark is a well known game warden in Nebraska. He flies a helicopter and just recent- ly arrested Paul Maxwell for hunting geese out of season. Warren Kennedy, the skyscraper of the class of ’49, never stopped growing and he is now so tall that he washes windows in the Empire State Building, standing on the ground. Alberta Meyen took over her dad’s trucking business and is now head of one of the biggest trucking firms in the Middle West. Lila Humphrey married Clarence Arensdorf and they live up in the sand hills where they run a Dude Ranch called the “Tumble Weed.” The twelve children furnish entertainment and also take care of the horses so they don’t have to hire anyone to work for them. Bill Coker has made his way to fame and fortune as a rough ’n tough, shoot ’em up good and dead, cowboy in the movies. Incidently, he bought Cherry county last week as he decided to do a little ranching (as a hobby of course.) It seems that John Mills has become the ‘Dan Dailey’ of Broadway. He sings, he dances, he clowns, he cracks jokes; he even acts. Besides being the greatest comedian, actor, and dancer of the decade, he is also known as the “Great Lover.” Wherever he goes he is completely mobbed by women. Are you happy, Johnny? I guess Ruthe Johnston never got those corny gags out of her system. Anyway she married Bing Crosby and they are engaged in raising corn on a farm south of Sutherland. Incidently, that isn’t all they are raising! You remeber Marjorie Winter, the friendly girl with the famous smile. Well, she combined her love of horses with her riding ability and became a famous jocky. Up to date, she has won the Kentucky Derby three times besides numerous other races. Fred Astaire has given up his contract in the movies to Richard McVay, who was always so light on his feet. And now, Richard has the part of a handsome, dancing casinova in the new M.G.M. picture, “The McVay Way.” Don Main is the famous male attraction at “Slapie Maxies” in Hollywood. But he has been considering the idea of tearing up his contract because in the past week he has had three tuxedoes ruined and almost had his famous musical knee broken by the mobs of beautiful stars who tear him to pieces trying to persuade him to be their leading man. This happens every time and every- where he sings. Betty Hughes married Bud Priel a year after graduation and they now live in Sun Valley, Idaho in their super-deluxe trailer house. But they have started to look for another place to live, a larger house, because the trailer is getting rather crowded with their two sets of twins and a set of quadruplets. 13 The Jolly Juniors Back row. left to right: Miss Frame.

Miss Altha Frame was our class sponsor. This was her first year of teaching in S.H.S., and we enjoyed having her as our sponsor very much. Class officers were elected as follows: President________________________________________ Ruth Leonhardt Vice-President ______________________________ Tom Kennedy Secretary...................................... Norma Bierma Sarg-of-arms_______________________________________________ Warner Our class motto is “We came, we saw, and we shall conquer.” Our class colors are green and white, and our flower is the white rose. We have had two parties during the year. The first was a hay-ride with invit- ed guests, and the second was a roller skating party at North Platte, also with in- vited guests. This was the first year that the Junior class was able to go to County Govern- ment day in North Platte. This was a very interesting experience, and we hope that the Jrs. next year will have the opportunity to go and hold the different of- fices as we did. We have enjoyed this year very much and look forward to being good Seniors next year. THIS IS THE END 11 Junior Class Presents Thanks Honey” Comedy in Three Acts We presented our class play the afternoon and evening of December second and the evening of December third. We enjoyed presenting the play as much as we hope the public enjoyed it. The characters were as follows: KATHY BARLOWE ______ ANNE BARLOWE ....... BETTY MARSHALL ..... JIM DEMING ......... JACK FORBES ........ FRANK LAWRENCE______ MR. JENKINS ________ MRS. MARSHALL_______ MR. TRAVIS ......... MRS. ATWATERR_______ _______ LILA COOK BARBARA KALLHOFF DELORES DEPRIEST .... TOM KENNEDY DON ROTERT ______JIM GODEKER ______ DON FLEECS ___ AUDREY EMERY ....LOREN HILTON ____LUCILE BROWN Story of the Play Kathy Barlowe is a lively girl of fourteen who uses her heart more often than her reason. She lives with her sister Anne who runs an advice column for a large newspaper. Anne doesn’t have time to answer all the letters she receives so Kathy offers to help. Anne laughs at the idea of fourteen year old Kathy advising anyone about anything. What Anne doesn’t know is that Kathy has already been advising quite a few people who have written to the column. Every day—thinking she’s helping Anne and the people who write to her—she takes several letters from Anne’s desk and answers them on Anne’s stationery, signing them the name of the column. Even after the editor sends Anne an assistant—Jim Deming—Kathy continues sending out ‘advice.” She gives so much helpful advice that she gets almost everyone in the play in trouble—her sister, her sister’s assistant, one of her best friends, some of the column readers and herself. Finally, after she realizes what she has done, she does something really helpful and promises not to answer any more of Anne’s letters. Then just when everything seems peaceful Kathy does the most surprising thing of all. A play which we, the cast, and our audience will never forget. 15 Junior-Senior Banquet and Prom On May 10, 1949, the Juniors had as their guests the Seniors of forty-nine. They were taken to “Holiday Inn,” by the way of the Sutherland High School Gymnasium. In this inn there were ten tables, each representing a holiday. It was a very colorful night spot, and everyone had a very enjoyable time. The floor was arched by the tables and dancing took place in the center of the floor. The program was as follows: Happy Holiday __ - Swing It! Rehearsal Erma Jean Bierma The Bandleaders The Downbeat _ — - - Mr. Strong Ventriloquist Act— Eddy Nergan Charly McNarty _« — Ron Warner Songs By— Berry Como Joe Stratford Meggy Lee Larnin the Violin— Reading The food was prepared by the junior mothers and it was very delicious. The menu was as follows: Fruit Cocktail Mashed Potatoes Gravy Roast Beef Whole Kernel Corn Rolls Jelly Butter Lettuce Salad With 1,000 Island Relishes Ice Box Pudding Coffee Dressing The banquet and prom was a great success. The Juniors were very proud that it turned out so well. 1G Back row, left to right: M. Shively, T. Bincgar, P. Merrill. L. Warren, K. Johnson, G. Crosby, H. Grauerholz. Second row: G. Kramer, L.

Sophomore Class The sophomore class of 48-49 has accomplished much this year, although we have lost several of our members. At the beginning of the year there were 25 of us but during the course of the year Ruth Koch, Bill Campbell and Shirley Law changed schools. A new student, Lyle Kirts came into our class at the beginning of the year. At the first of the school term we held a class meeting and elected the follow- ing officers: President-----------------------------------Mary Lee Weir Vice President----------------------------- Kenny Coker Secretary Treasurer__________________________ Chet Binegar Sgt. at Arms-------------------------------- George Crosby News Reporter--------------------------------- Jean Warren Our first class party was in the gym on Nov. 16, 1948 and we followed out a football season theme. The second semester we planned on a hayride. For now we’ll say “So long’’ to the Sophies and Mr. Thomsen because next year we’ll be juniors and have a new home room. 17 Freshman Back row, left to right: B. Coates, C. Marshfield, C. Kennedy, B.

The freshman girls wore clothes wrong side out and backwards, hair in pincurls, no make-up, barefoot. Freshman boys wore clothes wrong side out, barefoot and make-up. At the party we walked blind-fold- ed on tomatoes, cooked macaroni, cooked flax seed and feathers. Our hair was dunked in boiled flaxseed. We all had a good time any way believe it or not. 18 Sports Football Left to right, back row: D. Goedert, I). Leu, B. Renemo, A. Holm, B. Hoewing, b. Shively, Brown. Second row: B.

We Keep ’em Rollin’ This is the fifth year that our school has published a scholastic paper. It is “THE LOG.” It was first mimiographed and sold to the students for a nickle a copy. Mr. Warren now prints “THE LOG” in the Courior so the people of Suther- land and surrounding towns can read it as well as the school students. There is a different staff of officers chosen each semester. For the first seme- ster Editor In Chief was Marge Winter, and the Associate Editor was Erma Jean Bierma. For the second semester Editor in Chief was Erma Jean Bierma and the Associate Editor was John Kessler. Miss Frame is the sponsor of “THE LOG.” Two new columns were added this year. They are “Echos In The Hall” and “The Suggestion Box.” The news is collected Monday and comes out Friday morning with the regular edition of the Courier. 33 F. F. A.

A. work started Aoril 1, 1948, with Theodore Binegar, Presi- dent, Loren Hilton, Vice President, Phillip Merrill, Secretary, Kenneth Coker, Reporter, and Her- man Grauerholz, Sentinel. Our first major outing wa a fishing trip to Lake McConaughv. On Sat- urday morning September 11, the F. F. A. members left Sutherland in a school bus with our ad- visor, Mr. Thomsen, as driver, for the fishingspot of western Nebraska. After soending most of Saturday and Sunday fishing, the members questioned the stories about the lake. Our take—2 carp. However the water was just right for swimming and the cooks prepared the beans in great style. Our chapter and Sutherland was honored when Jim Freeman was selected to sing in the first F. F. A. chorus during the National F. F. A. Convention, held in Kansas City during November. Only six boys from Nebraska received their invitations. The first F. F. A. party was held November 22 in the school gym. As we study agriculture, we decorated the gym with agriculture products. The evening was spent in playing games, dancing and perhaps best of all, eating. District VII held its annual F. F. A. contest day, in Sidney on February 19. Our Chapter en- tered three contests, winning two red ribbons andone blue. Theodore Binegar received a red rib- bon in the “Product Book” contest, Bill Hoewing won a red ribbon in the “Creed” contest, and the “Parliamentary Procedure” team also won a blue ribbon. This qualified the Procedure team for entry in the State meet, where they won a red ribbon. Members of the team were Theodore Bine- gar, Phillip Merrill, Jim Freeman. Kenneth Coker, and Loren Hilton. Columbus wen the state title. In the Nebraska High School Vocational Agriculture contests held in North Platte in the spring of 1948, our Voc. Ag. department entered teams in the Livestock, Dairy, and Poultry contests. Our livestock team composed of Bud Warner. Jim Freeman, and Loren Hilton won first place, the Dairy team composed of Marvin Stark, Bill Campbell, and Don Rotert also won first olace, and the team of Bob Roberts, Tom Ntilson, and Theodore Binegar won third place and a red rib- bon in the poultry contest. At our regular March meeting the following officers were elected for the 1943-50 F. F. A. year. Loren Hilton, President, Theodore Binegar, Vice President, Don Kugler, Secretary Phillip Merrill, Treasurer, Jim Freeman, Reporter, and George Crosby, Sentinel. 31 Annual Staff 1949 ;nufimu.iiu i i.m.n u i mu u;i i i,i 1 rrrrn 11 li,u i htii i i i n i i : r.r-f ‘ ‘ 1 i..! 3 jlLi.. 7 i Rack row, left to right: J.

Every birthday of members of the class was celebrated by all. They went through three pre-primers and three primers during the year. All you can tell you the time of day. The speaking sounds or phonics were stressed. Art work of many kinds was always evident in the room. In the second grade outstanding progress has been made in all departments with particularly good work in reading and arithmetic. The third grade had one unit of social studies regarding railroads and railroading, that they thought very interesting. They worked this into their other subjects for several weeks and Mrs. Guffey showed a group of colored slides about railroads as a fitting climax to their work. The fourth grade has had a very interesting project in storekeeping which proved a good way to learn mathematics in a painless manner. The reading club was particularly active the first semester and many fine reports were given. A great deal of enthusiasm has been shown in the weekly arithmetic and spelling contests. In the fifth grade the class has taken a great deal of interest in pastel chalk work and a visit to their room will prove an interesting experience in color. Each member of the class has been keeping a scrap book of work from the different subjects and this has made a very inter- esting collection. The seventh grade has done some very fine textile painting this year, such as stenciling designs in towels and scarfs. The class seems to have an artistic inclination and the board carried a beautiful Christmas theme during December. They also contributed very favorably in the way of posters for the carnival. These people from the class were winners in the poster contest: Ned Combs first; Marlene Hilton, Marlene Stark, and Patricia Goedert third; Mary Louise Johnston, Kathryn Danielson honorable mention. The big party of the year for the class was a trip to North Platte for an evening of skating. In the eighth grade the whole class has been very much interested in learning to play the mouth harp and have mastered at least 35 songs. A new addition to the seventh and eighth grades was a chorus group composed of members of both classes. In the eighth grade each member of the class was asked to designate a vocational field of special interest and later each topic was discussed in class with a visiting speaker on the topic if it was at all possible to find some one to speak on the subject. CARNIVAL— All of the classes in grade school contributed to the success of the school carnival with many posters, filling sacks of confetti, and helping with many of the committees. With Mrs. Finecy directing, a very beautiful Christmas pageant was presented by the grade school. The Mothers and Teachers helped in many ways to make the production a success for there were costumes to make and many details involved in the practice, etc. The Grade Program: THE CROSSPATCH FAIRIES Presented by the Sutherland Grade School Pupils Dec. 21. 1948 — 7:30 P.
