Fellow students and friends, the time has arrived for us, the Class of l942, to depart from this great institution of learning, and while still sound of sight and senses, we do hereby solemnly declare this our last will and testament. R To the Iunior Class we bequeath Senoir dignity and responsibility and offer our sincere sympathy for their loss in our departure. To the Sophomore Class we leave the vacancies in athletics and music, and our excellent behavior in the class room. To the Freshman Class We bequeath the right to toil willingly as we always did, and our respect toward upper classmen and teachers. Upon leaving our seats littered with pencil stubs, Russian peanuts, and unknown initials we make the following individual bequeaths: Max Leininger-His duty as chief ventilator in first assembly to Wallace Bender. Lorence Roemmich-his success in music to Rolland Sandberg, and his tech- nique with women to Eddie Carl. Rolland Iohnson-His quiet, bashful manner to Harlan Kauk. Robert Rath-His little vehicle to anyone who will use it as a school taxi. Frederick Nicolai--His wisecracks in class to Richard Bettger. Agnes Roemmich-Her administrative ability to Marilyn Nuss. Robert Rollins-His size elevens to Bill Sheridan. Fack Leininger-His days absent in school to Father Time. Arlis Swanson-Her Bette Davis acting ability to Kenneth Ackermanns Don Ameche perfection. ,W lean Buttel-Her red hair to Iosephine Moore. Donna Leitner-Her dark hair and what have you? smile to Ioanne W. Phyllis and Wilma Cundall-Their sisterly love to Annabelle and Esther Fox. Donna Price-Her innocent smile to Thomas Nuss. Merle Spangler-Her extra time on N.Y.A. to Phyllis Beliel Wayne Lohmeier-His knowledge of football to lim Matteson. Continued on page Zll -9- ass ropllecy Dear Sutton High School: At last I found time to write you. In your letter you were asking me about your favorites, the brilliant scholars, class of 42 . So much has happened in IO years but I will try to tell you about everyone. Fortunately while I was visiting last month in San Francisco I decided I would squander 75 cents and look through new super talkie scope to see and chat with all my old classmates of '42. My scope first swung around to my home town. Good old Sutton. Upon entering I saw big black letters on a huge banner reading Robert Rath vs. Elden Holmes for mayor. I stopped at the new grocery store and found lack Lein- inger chief egg tester and Harold Carlson manager. Harold was to be a blushing groom that day. His bride Bernadine Ebert. Stopping to see how the seed business was coming along I found Max Leininger and Rolland johnson hulling seeds with their teeth as fast as they could and selling them hulled 5 cents an ounce. Some how I just didn't care for any seeds. Not that the boys hadn't used pepsodent that morning. Max told me he had been married 6 years to Doris Deering. Rolly hadn't done so Well. He had been married 5 times and was thinking of a divorce again. Frances Roberts and Merle Spangler were the new beauty operators with Robert Spangler as chief slicer-I mean barber. Our new Librarian was lean Iordan Sharkey. She told me about the new book What a Night just out, written by Keith Ham. I stopped at the post office and found postmaster Harold Firme reading post cards. He told me he just read one from Roberta Brown to Ray Bitterman. He gathered they were still sweet on each other. Imagine putting such stuff on a post card. Course he ain't complaining. I just started across the tracks when a tile landed in front of my feet. Harry johnson had eaten Wheaties that morning and was slinging tiles for blocks. After seeing all my friends down town I turned my scope to the school house and found three of my old S.N .T pals teaching, jean Buttel, LaVonne Pope, and Verta Ely. They said Principal Hurst felt very much at home in his office. I wonder why? My scope automatically focused on Geneva, Nebr. I soon learned some of my friends were now permanently located there because their tires had worn out and they were stranded. Louise Fehr doesn't have to worry about that certain someone not coming to see her 'cause she is now married to him. Geraldine Barnell just can't make up her mind but feels that Geneva shieks are tops. I ordered my scope to focus on New York and there I saw a dog hospital. Ioan Lilliedoll Barbee is chief dog nurse. She is so interested in her husband's work. While I was at the hospital, Countess Van Patten walked in to take her poor abused baby Cdog in American languagel home. She stopped only a moment to talk to me. She told me she was expecting Senator Kauk and his wife Louise for dinner. Louise was Miss Hill before her marriage. fContinued on page 30l -4Q- Strange as it seems i.FuZZn There's nothing like a green Model HA. Buddies Every lassie has her laddie.

Phil Nuss says, When people's views oppose mine And their arguments they won't resign For all my pleas, then 'tis nothing less, Than plain, unvarnished stubbornessf' Olive Pope can't stand the bore, Who talks for half an hour or more, While she is squirming like an elf, To talk a half an hour herself. All the teachers are sure, Arlie's virtue will endure, That her life will be free from a spot. They are certain that she, every happy will be, And that she will amount to a lot. lt's Nic's opinion that squirrels are smart. Here's the way he views them. They wisely eat the nuts they meet, While we just listen to them. Lucy and Ieanie sit and rock, ,They powder their noses and Watch the clock, With studied, proper, unconcern, For Ralph and Ierry they wait and yearn. Norma Heinz a nurse would be, And she makes it very clear, So anyone can plainly see, She's got her eye on a career. Elden Holmes is an active lad, At work and play he races about. And Wherever he's seen, 'tis very sad, For his shirt tail's always hanging out. But Kenny Kauk is not a bit wild, He is known as a good little boy, He's honest and bright and the teacher's delight, To his mother and father a joy. ' It's Rah! Rah! Rah! for Sutton High. We're behind them every play. Stepping high, and you know Why, With La Veigh Bender to lead the Way. -45- Class Oem When Sutton High goes on the air. Bernice Carlson's our announcer. With her keen dramatic flair, A very good one, I'd pronounce her. One set of twins we have in our class, They both work hard and keep every rule. Margaret and Marcella are sure to pass, Both in this and in liie's larger school. Tinkle, tinkle little bells, When Louise taps out her tunes, Her dancing rhythm casts such spells, We dream of stars and big white moons. im ,W What are little girls made of? Sugar and spice and all things nice. That's what little girls are made of. Especially the spice when it's Donna Price. Lorenz Roemmich's so tall and grand, So many girls find him fair, If Margie once lets go his hand, Half the gals of Sutton will be waitin' there. It's curious, with so much to learn, Bob Rath always seems to wait, To learn the most important things, Until it's far too late. Robert and Merle, the Spanglers two, Make science and business their guiding stars, We hope their skies are always blue, And nothing their ambition mars. Alone with a book by a fire, that's swell, For Geraldine and Bernadine, that's magic. Alone on a stormy day brings a certain spell, But, to be alone on a Saturday night-That's Tragic! lean Buttell doesn't mind her freckles, Sometimes for days she forgets that they're there. But when it came about that she'd have freckles, Did they have to add, red hair ? And now two small, cute girls we see, Improving each and every day, They're always busy as can be, Patricia Hughes, and Irie Mae. Donna Leitner says that she'd like to remind us There is one thing that we must avoid, I That is: Leaving notes behind us, That should have been destroyed. A -46- BACK ROW: Lytle, C.

She told me two of my class mates were to have a ladies wrestling match in the gym. As I entered the gym a familiar voice rang out announcing the bout. If you would have told me back in '42 that Dean Monson would weigh 450 pounds and be a boisterous referee in a ladies athletic club I would have thought you-er-a little eccentric. The bout was two-ton Salmen vs. Pee Wee Leitner. When the match was over with Salmen the muddiest I went up to talk to them. My scope then streaked over to The Empire State Building focusing up inside to the top story windows. There sat Leo Unterseher cleaning windows. Ierome Rauscher's secretary was sitting on his desk, or was in his desk. His secretary was Madeleine Leininger. He was married to Evelyn Hunnell but he said he didn't know how long it would last. Evelyn and Madeleine were to have a shown down soon. Ierome told me that he had just been trying on his new recording ma- chine some of the Peterson-Cundall songs. Elaine does the arranging and Phyllis and Wilma write the lyrics. Good work old super scope I said, now show me more of my friends. It flashed up to a certificate on the wall of a home reading For outstanding bravery to Gen. Mac Roemmichf' So Lorenz was using up his surplus energy for the good of our nation. I visited with Lorenz for a time and he told me his pal Paul was doing O. K. He was the chief judge at the live stock show at the world's fair. He told me he also had recently seen Wayne Lohmeier play- ing on the Globe Trotter's team. Wayne said he thought it was just about time to settle down. On rushed the super talkie scope. It stopped at the airport. I saw Donna Price just boarding it. It seemed she had a definite interest in flying and so had become a stewardess. The plane wasn't ready and Donna and I had a brief chat. I asked her about her friends Bernice Carlson and Lucile Watson. She said Lucile played the piano for her husband on his various singing tours from coast to coast. Bernice was Dean of Women at Vassar but now had a great problem . She could not decide whether' she wanted to continue her career or settle down on a farm near Sutton. My scope wandered across New York looking for familiar names. My how some of the names and faces had changed! My scope made a quick swing focusing upon the New York City concert hall billing the famed string quartet-Miss Iris Barbee, Miss Cozette Wieland, Miss Olive Pope, and Miss Phyllis Nuss. Leaving the hall my scope picked up these words on a flashy sign Madame Schumann Bender leading contralto here next week. So LaVeigh had finally decided to keep her voice a secret no longer. Across the street at the Hot Spot the twins were singing with Freddie Nicolai's orchestra. He is the nation's hottest trumpeter. Marcella and Mar- garet said he was a swell guy to work with but he always forget about pay day. tContinued on page 403 -3Q- eniofz Class ay The Seniors presented The Old School Spirit, three-act comedy, Friday, May l, under the direction of Miss Marjory Swan.

The big basketball game of the season approaches, and Bart Thomas, talented athlete, is not interested. Coach and students try everything to in- spire Bart. Finally they succeed, through the work of Elaine Richards, school vamp. But complications follow when Bart is accused of stealing a camera and is taken to jail just before the game. Antics of Polly Ann, whose specialty is babytalk, of Pinky, who is con- stantly inventing new school yells, and of Kewpie, who is flirtatious but not too intelligent, added humor to the play. i i' I' Hats oft to the perfect production of this colossal 3-act comedy. Credits for its overwhelming success must be given individually to each member of the cast, to Miss Swan, the dramatics director, and Phyllis Nuss, student direc- tor. We will always remember Roberta Brown as that little screwball who must have been holding a sieve when brains were passed out and Kenneth Kauk as her Dougy-Wuqqy Boy , Bernice Carlson, who as Mrs. Macklin, would never let you forget for a minute that she at least had civic pride: Harry I. and his ickie-wickee rah! rah! and Donna Price saying See-The Word's Picture lvIagazineMagazine- l'm the chief photographer. -34- Class isfofzy It seems but a few months ago that we, the seniors of 1942, trudged up the many steps to present ourselves as the freshman class. Even though we were slightly green we soon learned the rules and regu- lations of Sutton High and elected the following to guide us through our fresh- man year. President, Arlis Swanson: Vice President, Bob Rollins: Secretary, Bernice Carlson: Treasurer, Iris Barbee: Miss Alma Baruth was chosen sponsor. The class colors are blue and gold: the flower is the yellow rose. We enjoyed several parties during this year, those of greatest importance were the theater party and the picnic. The next year as we mounted the steps we were considered sophomores, and we too could look down on the freshmen. The officers selected this year were: President, Paul Hofmann: Vice President, Agnes Roemmich: Secretary, Marcella Grosshans: Treasurer, Kenneth Kauk. The sponsor who helped dur- ing this year was Mr. Miles Eloe. The social events of the year were a roller skating party, a box social, and a picnic. The next year we anxiously climbed the steps as this was the year of class rings, class play, and Iunior-Senior Banquet-the social event of the year. Iunior officers were: President, Marcella Grosshans: Vice President, Kenneth Kauk: Secretary, Bernice Carlson: Treasurer, Arlis Swanson. Spon- sors selected were Miss Betty Gibson and Mr. Glen Yont. Our class play was Faith, Hope, and Flarity, which was a tremendous success. Our class rings when received were the envy of every student in high school. On May 10, the Seniors, Iuniors and faculty enjoyed an imaginary ship voyage at the Iunior-Senior Banquet. This event ended our exciting Iunior year. On September l, this year, we mounted the steps to become the great and mighty seniors. The officers chosen for this important year were: Presiden,t Phyllis Nuss: Vice President, Wayne Lohmeier: Secretary, Arlis Swanson: Treasurer, lean Iordan. Sponsors selected were Mrs. Miriam Kirchhefer and Miss Mary Hockett who later resigned and was replaced by Mr. Wilbur Cass. Among the thrilling experiences of this year were taking pictures, picking an- nouncements and publishing the 42 annual. Social events were Sneak Day, Class Play, Iunior-Senior and Alumni Banquets. Then came the two important nights, Commencement and Baccalaureate, and thus ended our High School Days. And as we leave this school, we are sure there will be huge gaps in our Music, Dramatics, Sports and Social Organizations where our talented seniors stood. -32- Rah! rah! Sutton! All out for victory. UJust we two. Morning After Oh, Jimmy! Noon Hour Hail, hail! The gang's a here. Way back-when'?? Just kids. C' GSS .,CPoem If Roberta Brown is happy, If she shows her every grace, You're sure to find Ray B's the one, Who put the smile upon her face. The jokes Keith Ham always seems to remember, Are as old as Methuselah, he bets, But the bull's-eye hitters, the real side-splitters, Are those that he always forgets! Cozy Wieland, when she types, Improves each phrase and clause, By chomping on the chewing gum, Between her shapely jaws. A bump from boxing or football soon mends, And next day Max L. can tell the story ln condescension to his friends, Covered with liniment and glory. Rah Rollins says women are illogical. That their arguments are brittle. He further states, They talk too much, And yet, they say so little. Doris Deering's hair is neatly parted. Her rouge is on just right. Her specs are slightly tilted, To help her troubled sight. Wayne Lohmeier says One time an old rhyme Did thoroughly convert me. It was, sticks and stones may break my bones, But lectures can never hurt me.' Louise Fehr, on a summer's day, Baked the meadow, sweet with hay, Came a swain, and Cupid smacked her, Now her Dad has bought a tractor. Four bright new teachers, all in a row. Evelyn, Verta, LaVonne, and Elaine, We're hoping that every last thing they know, Through vacation, safe in their heads will remain. When Harold C. and Leo were lads: they weren't very bad But what they could have been worse, But if they'd been good--the dear public would, Have now been deprived of this verse. Men prefer blondes, the saying goes. Step right up, boys, if you will, Take your choice, if you would be beaux, Madeline and Helen can fill the bill. lContinued on page 363 -Elf uqctivity Calencfafz September 30 Basketball: Wymore 26, 1 School Begins Sutton 15 12 High seheai Mixer Febfusfv 19 Football: Fairfield 6, Sutton 8 3 Basketball: Harvard 20, 26 Football: Hebron 6, Sutton 13 Sutton 28 october 7 Basketball: Superior 32, Sutton 16 3 Football: Exeter 20, SllllOl't U Clay Cgunty Basketball Tourn 10 FOOlbClllI Clay Cefllef O, Sul- 17 Bqsketbqug Geneva 35, 1011 14 Sutton 24 21 Misflef P1CIY9fS 20 Basketball Aurora 23, 23-24 Teachers' Convention Sutton 19 31 Football: Superior 48, Sutton 0 24 BGS1C91bCI1l Deshler 39 Sutton 12 N 'b 27 Basketball Nelson 35 7 Iunior Class Play Sutton 28 13 One Act Play March 21 Operetta, Love Pirates of , , Hawaii 4 Harpist Concert 27 Football: Harvard 6, Sutton 13 5-6-7 Stale BGSkefbG11T011ff1- 16 Basketball: Deshler 32, Dnembef .

Will some one tell us before we burst, What, if anything, goes on behind The frontal bone of Donald Hurst. Phyllis and Wilma, the Cundall girls, Two dark haired, pink cheeked, brunettes, With their vim and vigor they make A pair of charming farmerettes. Two busy little bookkeepers are Lorna and Corinne, Deducting all the credits and adding up the debits, Keeping every page so spotless and so clean, Learning how, without a loss, to make a profit for the boss With our knowledge of human nutrition, advancing at such a rate. Paul H. is expecting some dieticitian, eventually to create, A dish big enough so he can eat, And have his stomach feel like he's ate. Not snow or sleet or cold or heat, Can ever quite prevail, To stop the letters from Frances Robert's private, From coming through the mail. Harry I. and lack L., swear by the stars above, That to avoid a lot of strife, Remember brother, that puppy love, Is only the beginning of a dOq's life. When Holly I. was a lad he was terribly bad, He worried his parents a lot, He'd fib and he'd cuss, he was always in a muss. But has he changed? He most certainly has not! In spring a young man's fancy, the poet states, Lightly turns to thoughts of love. Well I'm blestl Could that be the reason for the double dates, That Harold P. and Ierome seem to like the best? Editors all are very smart, And Agnes sure can play the part, I hope this is once she'll have a heart, And call this mess a work of art. Well, I've dabbled in meter and pottered with verse, Till my poor brain is getting most hazy, So before I contrive to do anything worse, l'l1 sign oft ..... with love, from Maizie -36L lv..

Nebraska Hastings, Nebraska Class rop ecy fContinuedJ My telescope was impatient so I let it go on. It focused on the Rollin's Law Firm, a huge building. So Rab was still helping people out of difficulties or getting them into them. Bob and I chatted for awhile and finally he handed me the New York Times. I read the headlines, Norma Heinzingale Sweet- heart of American Soldiers. Norma was now in Iapan nursing and she was aided by Helen Trautman who is being kept busy preserving the ears of the laps in alcohol for the American Soldiers to bring home for souvenirs. About ready to lay my paper aside my eyes were attracted to a familiar name in large bold face type. AGNES ROEMMICH, Editor of New York Times. She had just printed her success story and said she owed her success to the editing of the 1942 Mustang. My scope was silent, evidently my classmates were accounted for. Satis- fied with the results, l thanked the super talkie for all the information and re- turned to my hotel. It seems to me, Dear Sutton High, that you should be very proud of the Class of 42 , and we will never forget the swell experiences we had together. Sincerely yours, Arlis Swanson --2.40- I .
