While standing here it is only natural to stop, turn around and survey our previous course. Through many devious ways and windings we have comegthrough athletic meets declam contests, band activities, school operettas and dig- mndamsmmwbmwnm The first thing we notice is that out of our present midst of twenty-five, only ten of us made our debut together in Tabor Grade School away back in 1937. Those ten are: Dave Ewalt Larry Ruse, Mary Alice Timson, George Anderson, Marcella Shaw Glen Lintner, Arlyne Kearns, Donna McClure, Bob Kroon and Claire Bicknell. During our first eight years we gained several new members who are still with us. They are: Jim Nickerson LaCasta Hoxie, Max Jones Shirley Booth Dorothy Hiatt and Roger geeger. Our grade school days were characterized by two beautiful oper- ettas, several exciting firedrills and an innumerable collection of fifteen minute recesses which hold happy and unforgettable memories. Another highlight of our grade school days was our eighth grade pkv, WThe Elusive Aunt Laura.N 1 On the last day of school, we went to the state park for a pic- n c. The following September we came back to school with our hearts were scared as we tried ally green and not to the penetrating eye of classmen. Others who started our Freshman year and who are still with us are: Alvin Conaway, Ev- erett Blackman, Harry and Edson Tackett, Joanne Tritsch and Lou Ellen Kline. we were entertained by the student body at the annual Freshman party, which we had to at- tend as hobos. Our class picnic on the last day of schmn, was held at Porter's fake. Our Sophomore year was saddened by the long illness of one of our class friends, Julia Anderson, and in August, l9H8, Julia passed a- way. in our mouths, yes we not to seem exception- act too childish under those dignified upper- 114 IN MEMORIUM During the school year we gained two new Julia AHGSTSOD members, Bill Davis and Ray Retzlaff. On the last day of school, we journeyed through the Freedom Train, which had stopped in Omaha and our second year of high school ended with a picnic at Fairmont Park and a session of roller The Junior year in school brings about another class play and the name of ours was, nFix1t, Incorporatedn. It afforded many good times and we hope several laughs. The first of January, we received skating at Manawa. I 1 I yr Born-March 19, 193 Died -August 17, 194 our class rings and the second certain people had lost theirs. The big event of the year was held in the high school gym The last day of school was with Manawa, Playland Park and entertainment. Our last year in high usual final year activities week of January we overheard that was the Junior-Senior Banquet which and carried out the theme of a ship. spent with a picnic at Fairmont Park Omaha Theaters offering additional school was filled to the utmost with the which every class of Seniors experiences with the same mixture of enthusiasm, expectancy, sadness and gaiety which we felt. On September 30, we traveled to Shenandoah to have our pictures taken. Our class play, directed by Mr. John Trewet, called for a lot of work but several evenings of fun were mixed with it, a school carnival,whlch will long be remembered by all, was held in the spring. Very bright and early Friday morning, April 28, we started for Kansas City,which was to be our destination for skip dan Perhaps this was one of the highlights of our year, as we journeyed through the Kansas City Star building, the Fisher Bodies assembly building, Swope Park and many other places of entertainment and im- portance. The Junior-Senior Banquet was held in Omaha and proved to be a great success. we kept quite busy throughout the latter part of the year selling magazines having food sales and sponsoring bas- ketball games, the proceeds of which helped finance our skip day. However, it wasn't all work, as we had several class parties along with the drudgery. As we look through the records we realize that our class pos- sesses a certain amount of talent and ability. we have had represen- tatives on the All-State Football Team on the All-Southwest Iowa Girls' Basketball Team and representatives to the District Speech Contest. As we look forward to Senior Chapel Baccalaureate and Commence- ment,we bid farewell to high school and four glorious years of life. T H E G R A D U A T E S T. H. S.

S E N I 0 R P R O P H E C Y It is the year Nl96OH, ten glorious years have passed since twenty-five class worn book-worms , checked their diplomas to see if they were signed. we have received a wedding invitation from an old class mate who would- Jt sign his name , but is getting married in New York City, New York. I called Parent Substitute Corp . , and told them to send over a very reliable baby sitter. Then my husband and I went over to the school to tell our children that we were leaving today . They were in class so we went to the Superintendent's office to have him tell the children. As we walked into the office we got one of the biggest surprises we had ever had , for whom did we see behind the Superintendent's desk but Ray Retzlaff, the new superintendent of schools. He was very obliging as we have always known him to be and he would see that our request would be granted. We returned home to find our babysitter had taken over the refrigerator. we pulled his head out of the refrigerator, and who should it be but Mr. George L. Anderson , President of the Parent Substitute Corporation. After we gave familiar air about the attendant who check- George a slight dose of Bicarb of Soda we decided to be on our way. We climbed into our flashy canary yellow Cadillac convertible and sped away. After we had driven several hours we came upon a person who appeared to be a sophisticated tramp. Since we felt sorry for the poor chap we de- cided to stop. As we pulled up along side of this person we felt there was something familiar about him. As he grinned at us we saw two front teeth missing , and realized at He told us had broken down and he had been After to fill up again. We noticed a once that was Bob Kroon, our old classmate. he had been invited to the wedding, also but his Model A Fond trying to fix it, but had given up finally. a few hours more of driving we stopped in at a filling station ed the tires, the oil and washed the windshield . when she was filling the gas tank, we noticed the blonde hair and the ruby lips of Mary Alice Timson, another one of our old cell mates . We invited her to come with us and she closed shop and came. When we reached the suburbs of New York we hit a fruit cart and wreck- ed it, spilling fruit all over the street. when we went back to make amends to the outraged fellow we found it to be Bill Davis. As we drove down fifth Avenue, we saw a little man with a big woman who on closer observation, turned out to be His Grace, Lord Harry Tackett who married into a rich, noble family of England. We got rooms with baths at the Waldorf-Astoria . when the manager rang for the bell hop we saw the old boy come out and pick up our grips and with out further ado start upstairs. we followed him and after he had gone up three steps he collapsed . Bob thought he had seen him before remarked that he should know him because he 3 whereupon, after close study of his del- cate features we discovered none other than Edson Tackett. We remembered that Edson was always falling asleep in school so that probably accounted for his collapsing . After putting a tip in his pocket , we sat him in the hall to recuperate. we hurriedly changed our clothes and started off for the wedding. We got in the long line of cars going to the wedding and after an hour's driv- ing we arrived at the church. We saw a flustered young man standing on the church steps fumbling in his pockets for the ring. As he dragged out the ring we saw him flash his famous Hpepsodent smilenwhich could belong only to Ernie Watts . Ernie has found a rich old widow to marry and is certainly taking advantage of it. We climbed out of the car and started towards the church . All at once Mary Alice stopped and gasped with horror . She pointed to the church bull- etin , and we soon saw why she gasped . As the white letters danced before our eyes we could hardly believe what we saw. we finally came to our senses and dashed into the church to greet the Very Reverend James E. Nickerson, who was to officiate at the wedding. As we went on into the vestibule we saw a group of men standing around a lovely blonde-haired debutante. She spied us and She stood there talking about nothing in particular eral for quite some time before S of our old buddy Donna Rae McClure . She told came over to talk to us. and everything in gen- her giggle reminded us us that she took speech a familiar rin in lessons under Professor Everett Blackman , noted speaker , at her finishing school. As we glanced up we saw none other than the professor approaching.He had changed quite a bit from his old days at dear old T.H.S. . He now had curly hair and false teeth which rattled when he talked. The usher came into the vestibule and announced the ceremony was about to begin. As we were shown to our seats everything became silent . Then the massive organ in the front began 5 we saw stretching over the keyboard B E N I 0 R P R 0 P H E C Y Ccontinuedl none but the Alvin Leroy Conaway , who had won National renown as an organ - S . We heard the sweet strains of HI Love You Trulyn which the singer emitt- ed. A shocked look came over our faces as we saw the black curly hair and flashy smile of Max Jones , the soprano singer . While Max was vocal- izing, we noticed on the front row the famous columnist for the New York Sun, Miss Lou Ellen Kline . She was busy taking notes on the wedding. After the wedding we stopped and talked to her , and then went back to our suite at the Waldorf-Astoria. Since we were in New York we decided to go to the wgr1d Famgug Cgbra- Cabana.When we saw the proprietor's name in 1ights,we thought that this could not be our old classmate Roger Seeger. As he greeted us at the door we realized it was the same old boy except for graying hairs around the temples , and what we would call a pleasingly plump figure. Just before he took us to our table the men checked their hats , and who should we find in the check room but Dorothy Hiatt . Then we were shown to our table just as the floor show was about to begin . The spotlight picked up the master of ceremonies who announced Bubbles Booth and Torchy Tritsch, who presented a song and dance routine. Our china dropped as our eyes fell upon the smil- ing faces of Shirley and Jeanne, who shared graduating honors with us back in T.H.S. , in 1950. I sent my husband back stage after their show to in- vite them out to our table . They arrived just as the second act was about to begin . Then the master of ceremonies announced the famous roller-waltz team, consisting of Dave Ewalt and Marcella Shaw. Their act was very excit- ing and ended too soon. They joined us also. We ordered our dinner. As we tasted our delicious fried fish eyeballs we knew that none other than the famous chef, Glen Lintner, could have made them. After hearing that we liked his delicious food,Glen came out to wel - come us to the great city of New York . Knowing that Glen and Larry always used to stick together , we asked Glen if he knew what had become of Larry Ruse . He said he did and then led us back to the kitchen where, to our amazement, we saw Larry slaving over a hot dishpan. As we were leaving New York Ernie told us that Claire Bicknell had to turn down the invitation because she had too much work to do , so we de- cided to visit her on our way back . As we came within fifty miles of her home we had to leave our car and journey on by mule train . As we came up to the shack we saw a big , lazy old hound lying on the porch . When we knocked on the door the whole shack shook . After two futile attempts , we went out in the back yard to look for her . We saw someone out in the field but unable to see who it was , we approached this person slowly . We found it was Claire's husband behind the plow with Claire in front , in the har- ness, pulling it . She said the mule died of starvation about three months ago and they hadn't had enough money to buy one yet . She asked us in for supper.After we had choked down our cold bean sandwich and green onion, ,we found out from Claire that Arlyne lived down the path a couple of miles from her. We backtracked toward our Cadillac and stopped to see Arlyne, who was living with her husband on a chicken farm and doing very well. They had a new-type chicken. They crossed a chicken with a centipede and had a multi- ple legged chicken. They also had another strain which was all eggs and no meat. We bid Arlyne and her old man farewell and traversed on down the mountain to our Cadillac. Since Bob Kroon lived only a few miles west of Tabor in the hills, raising goats and children and Mary Alice said she needed a vacation any- way we decided to go straight home from Arlyne's . After we took Bob home, we took Mary Alice home with us, and relieved George , who had been starving because he ate all the food the first day. George came running out to meet me ye11ing,NLaCasta, Lacastall I'm sure glad you're home!

F R E S H M A N R E C E P T I O N T.H.S.'s annual freshman party was carried out with great success, Octo- ber 5, with Glen Lintner and Larry Ruse as masters-of-ceremony. Unwilling freshmen were brought before the judge Glen, and sentenced to get a lagge banana in one bite and sing nHappy Birthdayn as a duet. Fou o s nd r y a our girls were than sentenced to eat a delicious meal of macaroni and pepper. On a very slick floor, a square dance was then executed and Larry Gay- lord managed to trip himself while trying to kick a football. Two faces were certainly messed up when Glen sentenced Joe Blackburn nd Shi a rley Bachler to paint each other's faces with lipstick, incidently, each was blindfolded. The tragedy came as Gilbert Brown received the death penalty. He was placed on a bench with a noose around his neck, when Jim Nickerson pushed him off. But as Jim pushed, Larry let go of the noose and Gilbert was saved. Everyone then took part in a scavenger hunt with the seniors being the winners. The evening ended with refreshments of popcorn, apples and pop. f QNX J' V 'vi-v' FW' 17:- 93, k Ygwwf' 4-I I I f ACTIVITIES QQL, I fb K 4QV,2f 4. ,STUDENT qogxc IL, A mi 42.2 qs..

The first game played was with Randolph, which the Jays won, 43-33. Then the mumps caught up with two of the first string and Coach Garrett was forced to impro- vise as best he could. The team lost four games before they clicked again for two games. Then three losses preceeded the next win, over Essex this time. Then before the county tourney, Tabor suffered two more defeats and won one game. The Jays drew Thurman to play first night of the county tourney and Thurman came out victorious by a very small lead. Then two more losses wound up the season for 1949-SO. Letter- winners this year were: Blackburn, Davis, Foster, Kroon, Lintner, Morrow,Nick- erson,Queen, Retzlaff, Ruse, Seeger, Watts, Whitehill. Jim Nickerson was the only boy on the team to be chosen to the Nonparlel all south- west Iowa basketball team. e , . . . u 1 F11-st Hcwclefn to rightbglilen 1.1nn.a1-, bill fkavis,Jim Tiiclzcr- son, Ray Retzlaff, G ,er Seeger,Everett Blackman, Ernie latts, Larry Ruse.

THE 'NEW' GRADE BUILDING 12 'rriii -After nine months of meeting in temporary quarters, the nine grades- primer through eighth-Jan. 31 began operating in the former Tabor College Adams Hall, thoroughly and completely remodeled to meet the requirements of Tabor's junior school population. Fire February 3, 1949, completely destroyed the grade school building. Immediately after the fire the grade schoolers attended class in Adams Hall until a location for a new building was decided upon. Since September of this term the grades have been meeting in the Tabor Congregational, Methodist and Latter Day Saints churches, city hall and high school buildings. Tabor's board of education in the summer of 1949 purchased the entire old college plot, including the former Gaston and Adams Halls and College Gymnasium, from the city. Work began immediately on the reconversion of Adams Hall, d lasses began in the NNewN grade building Wed esd ,January 31'195oM ' fgwolmu-ee+w,,,, 1,50- rowm: Gl-.fJIf C 'Yi'-alliiilil -3 ' 111111 Us U-I Ll' ,UNIV First Row: left to right, Chucky Drown, Donald Wolfe, Charles Rubenking, Jeffrey Fulton, Twyle Blackburn, Darlene Record, Janet Anton, Nancy Lybarger W Second Row: Tony Bigferstaff, Neal Nelson, Johnny narbour, Vernon f'1sey, Miss Clapham, Judy Siglep, Carolyn Carnes, Murlol Puffs, 1 ota Melton fiird Row: Larry Hankins, Dwight Smith, Paul Retzlaff, Allen Learns, Robert Grey, Stanley Dalrymple, Ronnie Sharp,Dcnald Knier- Lum, Sammy Robinson, Roger Ame' lff grown.
