SENIOR CLASS HISTGRY Seven green freshmen entered the halls of Vesper High School in September of 1959. They were Eileen Cromwell, Jade Karstensen, Garret Block, Larry Hiitter, Donald Zvolanek, Norman Mannel, and Ronnie Zachgo. Eileen was President, Norman Vice President,and Jade Secretary-Treasure. Mr. Ross was our sponsor. We were initiated by the Seniors and were guests of honor at the dance that evening. We all returned in September of 1960 to enjoy another year of high school, the only difference being that now we are sophomores. Ronnie was Pres- ident, Donald was Vice President, and Garret was Secretary-Treasure. Mrs. Tichenor was our sponsor. The class remained unchanged as we returned as Juniors. Ronnie was President, Garret Vice President, Eileen Secretary,and Jade was Treasure. We presented our Junior play, WTO Many Andersonsn. The theme of our Junior-Sinior Banquet honoring the Seniors was HFantasy of the Sean. Mrs. Cushman was our sponsor. We all returned as Seniors in the fall of H62n.

PRCDPHECY While I was cleaning the attic today I came across the H1963 Cardinaln annual. I opened it up and saw my old Vesper High Classmates. My goodness how time does fly. Here it is 1983, twenty years later. Norman, a multi-millionaire, has just created a scandal by gaining control of all Charolais ranches in America. Don is now the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. His next case will be the HMannel Monopoly.H Since Norman and Don were old classmates at VHS, Norman will prob- ably be found 'not guilty.' Larry is now head driver of Walker Product's atomic powered hay truck. He ac- quired his money by finding the Lost Dutchman's Mine on Bullfoot Creek. Garret is now the owner of the Vesper Garage. He specializes in overhauling jet airplanes from the Vesper International Airport. Ronnie is employed in the electronics division for General Electrics. He devised the electronic computer for solving his children's arithmetic problems. Jade is the editor of the Denmark paper, the HDanes' Review.N I feel that her experience as a member of the Hlnk Spotu staff helped her gain success.
