Degree -if!-1 University of Nebraska FOREWORD The Blue and Goldn of 1940 is a permanent record of the successes, the follies, the friendships, the activities, in short, the lives of the students of Sutton High, during the years 1936-1940. We shall review these performances, not as spectators only, but rather as an active audience which forms a vital part of every complete presentation. That the spectacle, and their records, he equally signifi- cant to the player and the observer, is our aim. 1441 MILES ELOE CERTRUDE TRAECER W. 0.

Cjfass isffory In the fall of 1936, an exceptionally intelligent looking group of boys and girls entered Sutton High School as freshmen. After weld become ac- customed to High School life, we elected Melvin Levander, President, Max Heinz, Vice-President, Bill Swanson, Secretary, Ellie Marie Sheridan, Treas- urer, Mr. Woodworth, Class Sponsor. We selected the American Beauty Rose as our class flower and blue and gold as class colors. The class enjoyed nu- merous parties held in the gym, a weiner roast, and a picnic at the close of the school year. In our Sophomore year Max Heinz was President, Bill Swanson, Vice- Presidentg Virginia Lohmeier, Secretaryg Ellie Marie Sheridan, Treasurer, Mr. Miles Eloe was chosen Sponsor. Parties were held and we all enjoyed the annual picnic. We looked forward with great anxiety to our Junior year and the class activities, which included class rings, the Junior Class play, and the Junior- Senior Banquet. The Junior Class play, The Harvest Queen, was presented November 8, 1938 at the High School Auditorium. It was greatly enjoyed and will be long remembered by all who saw it. The Junior-Senior banquet was held on May 13, 1939. The theme which centered around the Colden Spike Day Celebration was carried out very successfully. Max Heinz served as Junior Class President, Leon Scheidemann as Vice- President, Virginia Lohmeier as Secretary, Bill Swanson as Treasurer, Miss Marlys Bell and Mr. Harold Duis were chosen class sponsors. In the fall of 1939, sixty-four Seniors approached their last year of High School life. Max Heinz was elected President, Bill Swanson, Vice-President, Virginia Lohmeier, SecretarygEllie Marie Sheridan, Treasurer. Sponsors were Mr. Jess Weyand and Miss Miriam Butler. The class of 1940 has been well represented in Music, Athletics, Pep Club, Dramatics, Girl Reserves, and S.N.T. Max Heinz, tenor soloist, Ellie Marie Sheridan, alto soloist, and Reatha Ochsner, soprano soloist, were all successful in the County and District con- tests. Ellie Marie Sheridan, Reatha Ochsner, Mary Jane Weston, Max Heinz, Dale Hultine, Leon Scheidemann, and Melvin Levander took part in the oper- etta, Bose of the Danube. The Boy's Octette included Max Heinz, Dale Hultine, Bill Swanson, Paul Yost, and Leon Scheidemann. In the Mixed Octette were Ellie Marie Sheridan, Reatha Ochsner, Dale Hultine, and Max Heinz. Frederick Bender, an outstanding piccolo soloist, won honors in the county and district contests. He won a superior rating in the Regional Contest at Omaha in 1938. Other instrumental soloists were Bill Swanson, Sousaphoneg Leila Busse, Bb Clarinet, and Helen Mau, Eb Clarinet. The Senior Class Play, For Pete's Sake, was presented April 26. Ellie Marie Sheridan led the Sutton High Pep Club during the football and basketball seasons. Helen Mau, Virginia Lohmeier, Phyllis Ebert, Helen Dick- son, Helen Brening, Geraldine Lohmeier, Reatha Ochsner and Mary Jane Weston were Senior Ponies. Continued un Page 40 -'NIO 15'- .qbfzopllecy Last summer I won a trip 'to the World Fair by writing the best 25 words to complete the sentence-I like Gritty Maid toothpaste because- -- - I took the first train to New York and was soon at the fair grounds. I saw nearly everything the first day but was tired to death that night. I went back early the next morning to resume my sight-seeing. The first thing I came to was a fleet of beautiful shiny airplanes in a field with a sign on the gate which said, 'LTake a trip into the future. Find out what you and your friends will be doing in 1950 for only 35.00. Thinking it would be interesting to know the future of all my class, I paid the fee and climbed aboard. Then, piloted by a 'handsome young man, the plane was off with a roar. The first stop came very soon at New York City. Here I found Milton Scheerer working on the editorial staff of a big New York Daily, for which position he was very well qualified, having been the editor of the Mustang Round-up for some time. The airplane industry had made great strides in ten years time and Twila Williams was piloting a fine plane, The Liberty Express, carrying passengers and freight all over the world. On her plane, which was about to take off, Lorene Issler was a passenger. For due to her nose for news, she was an Ace reporter and was flying down to Rio for a big scoop about a Portuguese family row. While nosing around the machine, I accidently came upon a stowaway. This was Don Bulin, who was going to South America to look for a job as a gauche in the pampas. He felt himself to be very competent as he had taken 12 easy lessons in Hi-Yi-ing. In the Empire building I came across Leila Busse, a professional typist in the office of a big business executive. In the Grand Central Station I met Mary Jane Weston and Ellie Marie Sheridan, who had just completed a season of Grand Opera, and were on their way home to Grafton to resume the singing of lullabies. Next I Hew to Washington, D. C., and alighted with eagerness to find who was there. In a short time I met Helen Dickson on the street. She was at- tending a National Convention as she was the Nebraska State Director of Women's Project Clubs. At the capital I found that Don Ochsner was a United States Senator from Nebraska, who had gained an easy victory with the slogan Honest Don, his face is his bond. Here I also found Billy Swanson who was in charge of a new government department, the L.F.A. which stands for Ladies First Always. As I had a great desire to learn whether any of my classmates had crossed the ocean, we immediately headed out over the Atlantic and in a very short time had landed in Europe. The first one of our class that I met was Melvin Levander. He was touring Europe on a motor scooter which he had named Stellie Marie. This he informed me, was Latin for Star of the Sea. Artis Johnson had gone to Switzerland to organize 4-H clubs. She seemed Continued on Page 31 wif ll 250- 'qdkifw Y A is li'u4'L Ron' le-lil lo right: Allu-rls. Xl. Yost.

BAND The H1939-40 advanced band is composed of fifty members, thirty-three high school students, the remainder grammar school pupils. There has been a High School Band in Sutton for the past nine years, and it seems each year the interest increases. We sixteen seniors, who are leaving this year, hope t'hat it will continue through the years to do so. Students playing solos from the band are Joan Lilliedoll, Frederick Bender, Leila Busse, and Helen Mau. The band is planning on entering the Spring Music Contest. PEP BAND Our Pep Band has twenty members who are really full of pep. All the members of the Pep Band are chosen from the advanced band.

We, the students of the Senior class of 194-0, having, not without serious scientific study and ceaseless slaving, surmounted to the Sierra-like summit of our scholastic success and having survived this struggle, somewhat stunned from our stupendous success but still sound of sight, sinew, and senses, do therefore solemnly make and set down in script this, our Last Will and Testament. To the next Senior class we wish to hand down the age old tradition, namely, that the Seniors are to graduate before the Juniors. We hope with all sincerity that this tradition will be upheld by that honorable body of students in the same manner as it was by us. 1'To the Sophomores we wish to leave our fine cooperative spirit and our never say die attitude, which we hope will get them as far as it got our class. To the Freshmen we give our studious attitude and our brilliant answers for any and all questions which may, at any and all times during their be- wildering school days, arise. After duly consulting each and every member of the class, we make the following individual bequests. Wilma Ackermann-Her neatness to Robert Rath.

PROPHECY fffontinuedj so happy in a little Swiss Chalet in the mountains that I thought she would be leaving one H Qher heartj in the highlands. Next I flew to Africa. Shortly after I arrived I learned that Leonard Stertz and Richard Heinz were modernizing the elephant taxi system. A large sign outside their establishment read-Ride our streamlined elephants, speed up to 35 miles per hour, roomy trunks in front. After I had flown further into the interior we came upon a mission school where the Anderson twins, Lorene and Irene, were teaching the natives. It was recess time and in the yard a bunch of little pickaninnies had gone into a huddle and seemed to be chanting some sort of a native ceremonial, but as we drew nearer we caught the words--Sutton High School, Rah! Rah! Rah! At this same settlement, Marjorie Mitchell and Virginia Peters were con- ducting Margie's Black Beauty Shop-Experts at straightening hair, inserting nose rings and adjusting lip weights. I learned from them that Salome Ehly was a big game hunter in that region. So far she had bagged 2 lions, a unicorn and 50 mice. There didn't seem to be any of our class in Asia so I didn't land there but flew right on across the Pacific, dipping far to the south, where in Little America Sam Carney was running a combined drug and hardware store- specializing in electric fans, refrigerators, ice cream and cold drinks. After this stop, I resumed my flight and landed on the west coast. I found that Hollywood had claimed quite a number of my class. A titian-haired dancer of the screen, a worthy successor of Ginger Rogers, proved to be none other than Geraldine Lohmeier. Lucille Bauer and Marian Deering were running a restaurant while wait- ing for a screen test. Their special that day was evaporated ham sandwiches and they also were serving a good all round square meal. Helen Mau and Herman Hartmann had reached the top in pictures and were co-starring in a new show, 6'Gone With The Gin. On the West coast I found that Selma Unterseher and Eleanor Grove were running a large chicken ranch. They had developed a new strain of chickens. These were crossed with owls and laid eggs at night. , O Further south in a sunny valley Dale Hultine and Florence Sedersten owned a huge commercial vineyard. They were propagating a new variety of grapes, called the grapes of wrath. I ran across June Statz, who was living at a mountain resort. It seemed that she had gone on a trout fishing expedition, fell in love with a trout man and had never gone back. I stopped at' Denver, where I learned that the Slack twins, Dorothy and Doris, and Margaret Rothrock, were conducting the Happy-Go-Walkee dancing school. Roberta Hurst and Ethel Cundall were also in the mile high city conduct- ing a cooking school. Their husbands, who had that well-fed look, posed in the front oflice as a subtle advertisement, also took charge of the money. -if 31 2130-- PROPHECY fC0'ntinuedJ Viola Roberts was an instructor in a school of indoor and outdoor sports. My next stop was south of the border, where Reatha Ochsner had been teaching school for 4 years. Senor Paul Yost had ridden down that way and was serenading this dark-eyed Senorita on his guitar. Phyllis Ebert, who was doing stunt flying and sky writing, appeared at a fiesta in Mexico City. Next I flew to Sutton where a good many of the class still lived. Neoma Criess and Wilma Ackerman were the most successful teachers in Clay County. Cleo Steiger was running a very popular summer resort on the Blue River, while Fern Nelson was married to the most famous lawyer in Stock- ham, who was trying to discover who put the graft in Grafton. Lyle Trautman was a mechanical genius and had invented a gadget guar- anteed to jack up a wheel, pump up a tire, stop back seat driving, and do half the cussing. Leon Scheidemann was running a classy little delicatessen. Helen and Clara Brening, after excellent coaching by Miss Bell during high school days, had entered the dramatic field. Clara was Helen's double. Lillie Hunzeker was singing cowboy songs at station KMMJ, while Gloria Yost was writing poems which were of love and spring. I flew across the Mason-Dixon line, where I found out that Frederick Bender had become the most famous tobacco auctioneer of the South. He did the most tobacco selling for Robert Schmer, who was raising the roughest, hottest, strongest tasting tobacco on the market. At the Chicago Art Gallery I came across Edna Roemmich who is a disciple of that new reversible art. Elmer Trautman was a photographer in this same city. His ads read, Pictures finished from prints or negatives, large as life and twice as natural. Send only one dollar or reasonable facsimilef, Lorene Griess was a registered pharmacist, working on a fine greaseless face cream. Max Heinz and Virginia Lohmeier were still that way about each other after several years of married life. He was a blues singer on the Bayer's Aspirin program in Chicago and she was a blues chaser in a cozy little cottage in the same city. From here I flew to Detroit. A huge sign caught my eye right after alight- ing. It read: '6Roger Sheridan-dealer in airplanes, tractors, wheel barrows and mouse traps. On the other side of town, Verna Zimbleman was manufacturing a fast little clipper plane. She showed me her sign on a huge bill board, The Zimbleman Zephyr, zooms through the zodiac with zip and zest. All I could say was Is zat so. I had only one more stop to make. This was at Cambridge, Mass. where Margaret Heinz was teaching astronomy at Harvard College. In a short time, I was back at the fair grounds, and didn't have much zest for the rest of the sight-seeing. After completing it, I was glad to get back to Sutton. - if32il'- Class .qboem Gaze 'round the assembly, get an eyeful of life. In this room there's plenty of contest and strife. There's plenty of talking and putting on show. Thereis plenty of life-ask the seniors, they know. Take a look at our president with wavy blonde hairg The way he can do things makes folks stop and stare. Weire proud of you Max, and we'll be prouder still When you've reached the high top with your sense and good will. Shuffle, shuffle, clatter, what a terrible noise! It makes you forget all your manners and poise. But don't get excited and don't drop your peng Itis just Sam headed North with his big feet size ten. Laughing and whispering and having some fun, Is a group of four girls, I'll name them each one- There's Geraldine in the hack of the room' in another row , , M In front of Gerry is Lorene Ag in front of her, Lucille B. Now they arenit bad girls-don't misunderstand me, But the back of the room is a nice place to be. A struggle for silence and then a big roarg Whois laugh is that? I've heard it before. Oh sure! It is Lillie whose motto is this: Don't stand back in life, 'cause thereis too much you'll miss. Quite different from her are two shy little girls, Who have the same name and they both wear some curls. They're both faithful workersg they both do their best, Theyire Irene and Verna-now you guess the rest. Let's visit the music section of our noble Sutton seniors. arian D QThough I fear it's not complete without a bunch of juniorsj. Music flows naturally from his lips, He doesn't have to strain, You hear Dale once, like his voice, And want to hear him again. Hurrying and conversing With clarinets in hand, A jolly trio of girls Wend their way to band. You know them all and know them wellg I'll name them here for you- -qi 33 ig..- Class oem They're Helen Mau, Twila W. And Margaret Rothrock too. Let's go to the olilice and see what we'll find- There's a girl busy talking with our Mr. Weyand. She hasn't been bad or done something not nice, She's come in for council and solid advice. Irene is the girl. May her life-dream come true! As a doctor she'll show men what women can do. Edna Roemmick is making a map of Nebraska- Perhaps next she'll be tracing rainfall of Alaska- The Principal's right-hand girl artist is she- Were it not for her, where would this busy man be? As we step from the ollice into the south hall, We see Richard Heinz who plays basketball. He goes straight to his desk, not bothering a soul, He's a newcomer, liked by the school as a whole. Now let's go to Miss Bell's room and see who they are Who write all those personals that give us a jar. Two of those guilty are the well-known Slack twins. If Doris can't finish it, Dorothy begins. There's Viola and Margie, and there's Hetty Jane, And thereis Clara who believes in using her brain. At their seats in the assembly, studying hard About Napolton, or margins, or starches or lard, Are Margaret and Eleanor. They're never caught By an eagle-eyed teacher doing things they're not taught. Miss Moehringis door's open, by sounds we can tell. Therels a gay 'little giggle. I know it quite well- It's Neoma, she's laughing 'cause Wilma is thereg There's some ticklish joke that they both want to share. In the room are some others who all hope some day To guide learning children and show them the way. There are Allan and Screeno Qlively for her sizel And June and Salome who has pretty eyes. They want to be teachers but look at them now- You'd think their chief aim was to have a good row. Now back to assembly to take a last look At the seniors who interest me more than a book. We've gazed at them, noticed them, seen what they've done We know them all now except for one- ' And that's Gloria Yost, now dreamy, now sad- Come on with more smiles Glo, this world's not so bad! I know it's my trouble, it's what they all say. I just don't live up to my pen name of Gey. -erstw- Mr. Eloe was explaining to the seniors how the trees develop their foliage in the springtime.

Our Senior year proved to be very enjoyable for all. Class parties held in the gym. a High School Mixer in the Auditorium, our Sneak Day, Class Day, and Baccalaureate, the banquet at which the Seniors were guests of the Juniors, and the Alumni Banquet are some of the many unforgetable memories of our High School days. Commencement was held on May 23. The Blue and Gold, owes its publication to the work of the Editor, Ellie Marie Sheridan, and Assistant Editor, Leila Busse, who were assisted by Business Man- agers, Bill Swanson, and Melvin Levander. These four most important years of our life are rapidly coming to an end, and it is with deepest regret that we leave our classmates and our patient teachers who have made these past four years most interesting and enjoyable for all. The Class of ILO, has the distinction of being the largest graduating class ever recorded in the history of Sutton High School.
