Senior Class History In 1936 thirty shy little boys and girls marched into Miss Bolten's first grade room and demanded an education. Of these thirty, thirteen have com- pleted their entire twelve years of schooling in the Waterloo schools. They are Bud Baird, Beverly Bickel, Mary Lou Bowman, Pat Bowers, Phyllis Gratz, Bill Hubartt, Dick Kutzner, Susie Luce, Pat Miser, Marilyn Morr, Carl Rohm, and Bob Stanley. Miss Brandon took over our education in the second grade. The following year our teacher was Miss Hamman and we moved from the old school build- ing to the high school building. Miss Dirrim and Mr. McIntosh were our teachers in the fourth and fifth grades and Mr. Gurtner gave us the final push into the junior high where we were under the guidance of Mr. Blomeke and Mr. Shore. With the help of some students from Corunna we entered high school with an enrollment of forty. This number was later increased to forty-six. Bob Stanley was elected president of the class, Dick Kutzner was vice-president, Jayne Bowers was secretary-treasurer, and Pat Bowers was historian. Mr. Bowers was our faculty advisor. We sponsored a skating party and a hay ride during this year. During our sophomore year we sold Christmas cards and stationery to raise money. We were very proud of our blue and gray class sweaters which we purchased that year. Bob Stanley was re-elected president, Dick Kutzner was vice-president, Pat Bowers secretary-treasurer, and Mary Lou Bowman was historian. Our junior year was one of busy activity. Our class play, He Couldn't Marry Five,” was a smash hit. We also gave several dances. The theme of our Junior-Senior banquet was Fiesta and it was a very colorful occasion. Our concession stand, the Bar None proved to be very profitable. Miss Noffsinger was our faculty advisor and Jayne Bowers was president of the class. Dick Kutzner was again elected vice-president, Pat Bowers was secre- tary-treasurer, and Mary Lou Bowman was historian. As seniors we started with an enrollment of 35. This number was later reduced to 33. All through our high school years we have always taken an active part in sports and the various other activities. We have some very good reasons to be proud of the six seniors who received basketball sweaters this year. Willie's Weekend, our senior class play was a roaring success. We sponsored several waste paper drives to help raise money with which to put out the Rosebud. Our president was again Bob Stanley, Darrell Johnson was vice-president, and Dick Kutzner was secretary-treasurer. Mr. Bowers was our advisor and he also helped us with our yearbook. As we, the class of '48, leave W. H. S. we will take with us many fond memories and experiences. We wish to thank our parents and teachers for their patience and guidance, for we now realize that we must have been rather trying at times. With the guidance they have given us and the education they have helped us receive we feel more confident as we face the future. Patricia Bowers, '48 PAGE NINETEEN

Prophecy I looked into the Future 10 years from this date. Saw the wonder of the century. The class of 48. Wayne now owns a chicken farm The greatest in the state, Jo Anne H. is still his true love For marriage was their fate. Beverly B. lives near St. Joe, Is happily married there. Pat B. invented a cure for all ills, And became a millionaire. Bill H. studied in college; To coach was his dream. W. H. S. is now on the map. He coached our great state team. Jo Ann O. is married to a farmer. She's happy now as ever; For Dick is her loving husband And he will leave her never. Beverly W. is a songwriter; Her songs are heard by all. Pat M. took up music, And played in Carnegie Hall. Velma and Lois are adventurers; They've been most every place. They've just come back from S. America, Where they found a strange, lost race. Jack sought adventure; He tired of this region. He took a short vacation To join the Foreign Legion. Neva is in Hollywood; She's making pictures there. She took over L. Turner's place. And now she has blond hair. Bob S. leads an orchestra; Mo;t famous in the nation. Mary Lou became a nurse, And next to Bob loves her vocation Mary is real happy, For Jr. she has wed. She makes a grand housekeeper, And is some cook, it's said. Frank was always a woman hater. We all must be confessin'. Now he teaches how simple it is In just one easy lesson. Carl R. and Robert R. Are pals still as of old. Right now they're in Iceland Prospecting for gold. PAGE TWENTY-ONE
