‘xsBSiH. SENIOR CLASS WILL We, the members of the class of ’35 do, upon departing from our earthly life at Warrensburg Community High School, make this last will and testament: We, the Seniors, do bequeath our reputation for good behavior in every class, to the undergraduates. I, Floyd Alsup, do bequeath my athletic frame to Lloyd Mullins, with the advice that Grape Nuts help. I, Harry Barclay, do will to Helen Sibthorp, my ability to make clear each and every joke. I, Morris Beall, do leave to Doris Buckley my record of tardiness, hoping she may profit by it. I, Rosemary Botts, bequeath my ability to take charge of classes and assemblies to Lester Wickline. I, Medford Cheffer, leave my pleasure in buying candy for the girls to Arthur Hamilton. I, Leah Gepford, do will my demure character and dark complexion to Virginia Tolson. I, Mabel Hanes, do bequeath my sex appeal to Dorothy Hepworth, having proved that I can hold a man for a year. I, Lewis Kerwood, leave my desire and willingness to study to Mary Culp. I, Mary Ann McGorray, leave (as is the custom) my Irish descent to Jack McGorray, thus keeping it still in the family. I, James Noel, bequeath my ability to argue with MissMoretz in American History to James Robbins. I, Jean Robbins, do will my inexhaustable energy to Helen M. Delaney. I, Arthur Rodgers, bequeath my drowsiness in English class to Annabel Faith. I, Lester Spitzer, do leave my gay night life and drowsy days to Edna Sharp. -17- FLORA CROSSMAN.

THE CARDINAL- A (Continued from page 15.) Miss Moretz was chosen for the fourth time as the faithful guide, with Mr. Serkes as her assistant. The Junior-Senior Banquet was the best of a number of parties held during the long year of travel. Another high light of the latter part of the trip was the Senior play. There were many days of hard work but all were well repaid in June when they reached their goal, “Commencement.” LEAH GEPFORD. w

THE CARDINAL? THE MACON COUNTY TIMES, MONDAY, MAY 27, 1945 SALESMAN LEADS FIFTH BRIDE TO ALTAR One of the most brilliant weddings of the season took place yesterday when James Noel, Shredded Wheat salesman, took as his bride the blushing Rosemary Botts, prominent teacher and lecturer. The couple will live in a newly furnished home on “Depression Row.” LOCAL FIRM SPONSORS CROONER Friends of Jean Robbins, the well known crooner, will hear his nightly broadcasts over the coast to coast network sponsored by the Warrensburg Canning Factory. CHEFFER CIRCUS COMING TO TOWN The greatest show in America will be in Warrensburg next Tuesday. Medford Cheffer, the owner of the circus, is featured the world’s tallest man. He is still growing. LESTER SPITZER’S BOOK PUBLISHED Mr. Lester Spitzer, well-known for his ability to break women’s hearts, has at last been persuaded to publish his methods and technique in a book called “How to Win a Girl’s Heart.” The book is awaited with much interest. ALSUP-HAINES ENGAGEMENT ANNOUNCED The engagement of Miss Mabel Hanes, daughter of C. A. Hanes of Warrensburg, and Floyd Alsup was announced yesterday at a tea at the Kresge Lunch Counter, Decatur, Illinois. The engagement is of interest because the romance has been flowering for ten years. The bride-to-be is prominent in Ladies Aid Circles. Mr. Alsup is known for his work in the cultivation of farms by radio. EVANGELIST BANS JAZZ MUSIC Reverend Lewis Kerwood in a stirring address yesterday sternly denounced jazz music as the ruination of the younger generation. Evangelist Kerwood is giving a series of addresses this week in the Village Hall. HOSTESS SUES NIGHT CLUB OWNER Miss Leah Gepford, hostess at the “Barclay Nook”, has sued the proprietor, Harry Barclay, for four thousand dollars for back payment of salary. It seems that Mr. Barclay overlooked ten dollars of Leah’s last pay check. LOCAL BOY MAKES GOOD IN HOLLYWOOD Morris Beall, formerly of Warrensburg, is now with his orchestra at the Coconut Grove in Hollywood. His theme song, very inappropriate, is “How Dry I Am.” He is soon to stop here on his coast to coast trip to play three nights at Albert’s Tavern. MISS McGORRAY LEAVES FOR A WEEK Miss Mary Ann McGorray, famous dress designer, left early this morning in her plane, “Shamrock”, to spend a week in South America. FAMOUS DANCING TEAM HERE Miss Flora Crossman and Mr. Arthur “Tuffy” Rodgers, the famous dance team who can do the Rhumba “like nobody else”, came back to their home town last night for a two day appearance at the Odd Fellows’ Hall. -18- ANNA LOUISE MOFFETT.
