Senior Class Play “THE FUNNY BRATS.” Dick and Harriet, high school youngsters, are infuriated because their widowed mother, Mrs. Sylvia Gresham, has allowed their older brother, Tom, to become the dictator of the family. They secretly send Tom’s picture to a wealthy widow, Mrs. Gwynett Gadwood, whose advertisement for a husband has appeared in a matrimonial paper. Dick and Harriet hope Mrs. Gadwood will marry Tom and take him far, far away, so they can have some freedom and run their mother to suit themselves. Sylvia, tired of her children’s constant bickering, decides they need a father. Since Loren Gresham, her bachelor brother-in-law, with whom she is in love, is too bashful to propose, she becomes en- gaged to the crabbed old widower, Whaley McWhorter, who believes in training children as he trains mules. Dick and Harriet, decide to get rid of him by fair means or foul. They lead him to believe their mother has intentionally poisoned him after she got a huge diamond ring out of him. Mrs. Gad- wood arrives from the matrimonial agency in search of Tom. Dick and Harriet, fearing Tom’s fury, try to get rid of Mrs. Gadwood by telling her Tom is engaged to the dumb maid, Aurora Pike. “Boogorface Boggs. an amateur wrestler, who is Aurora’s boy friend, threatens to murder Tom. The youngsters tell Boggs that Whaley is Tom; he promptly jumps on Whaley and twists him all out of shape! Dick and Harriet finally get their bashful uncle to propose to Sylvia, thinking if he becomes their stepfather he will allow them to do exactly as they please. But Loren makes them understand that they are to be very strictly disciplined. The brats lose their battle after all. PLAY CAST Harriet Gresham, Sylvia’s impulsive young daughter ..............

Senior Class History In September of 1939, twenty-three brave little pupils entered the first grade with Miss Getts as their teacher. The following years we were under the direction of Miss Wisner. We had Miss Hamman for a teacher in the third grade, Miss Dirrim in the fourth, Mr. Shore in the fifth, and Mr. Gurtner in the sixth grade. Then we moved up stairs where Mr. Shore and Mr. McIntosh prepared us for those four exciting years of high school to which we were looking forward with eagerness. We started out as green Freshmen, with enthusiasm and eagerness to become acquainted with the many new faces about us. We were under the supervision of Mr. Leslie the first year in high school. We had several parties, much to our satisfaction. During our Sophomore year we purchased our class sweaters. “Oh! Look at that Green,” was the cry through the hall. As a money-making project we sold Christmas cards and wrapping paper, with Miss Thompson and Mr. Eppley as our sponsors. During the next year we were very busy Juniors. We purchased our class rings and considered this one of the high lights of the year. Under the supervision of Jack Shore we operated the Concession Stand, the pro- ceeds of which were to go into our fund for our Senior Class trip. In the Spring, with Mrs. Voss as our director, we presented the play, “Pair of Country Kids.” It was well attended and enjoyed by the audience. In September, 1951, we entered school with an important air of dig- nity; for at last we were Seniors! This year our biggest job was to edit the yearbook, “The Rosebud,” and prepare for our trip. In order to do this we conducted many paper drives and bake sales, from which we re- ceived a good profit. We are grateful students, and we wish to thank our teachers and par- ents who have given us this opportunity to receive our education. PAGE 12 Compliments of F. A.
