Characters have come and gone, as have directors, but the theater still stands (through no fault of the actors). That first season was one to remember! Although the cast was an unruly one, and a trifle ignorant, they had an excellent director, Agnes Charvat, who managed to pull them through. The original cast was Mary Ann Grove, Ann York, Joyce Dougherty, Martha Hanlon, Joann Fritz, Bob Aldrich, Bill Fox, and Dale Leonard. The second season arrived and with it two promising young actresses, Pauline Bain, and Carolyn Hunter. Our director was Mrs. Helen Haughtelin. Before we pass on, some critics have insisted that the tale he told about one young ham actress who got so swayed by her profession that she imagined she was playing the part of an elephant and stuck pencils up her nose. (There, I've said it, and I'm glad!) During the third season the stock company at the Shuler Mine collaborated with the Waukee players and, as a result, the play gained three new actors, Alfred Ori, Gene Dluhos, and Frank Andreini. There were also two new actresses that year—Doris Ann Lux, and Dolores Meusburger. The director was Gladys Hood. The next fall was a triumphant one—the cast was promoted to the Big Building. During the fourth, fifth, and sixth seasons, bit players came and went but the regular cast remained intact. The directors for those years were Edna Hertz, Bernadette Carroll, and Thelma Barger Jochens. In the seventh season, the cast was enlarged by the addition of four new stars, Jane Corbett, Roberta Clayton, Shirley Delay, and Donald Craig. During this and the following season, the group was directed by Mary Cline. Bill Cramer, Joan Creger, Marian Creger, Bob Cadwell, Bill Day, Gene Huston, and Dolores Paullin, members of various country theaters, were the last goup to join the Waukee cast. This was the ninth season—the season which was to start the most exciting era of the play. Now the cast will soon disband. The last performance of the group as a whole will be the eighteenth of May, but that will not be the end of the career of each actor. For each will be the star of his own individual play, and whether they be comedies or dramas, let's hope they will end happily ever after.

We hereby appoint Eleanor Rowley and Vincent Meyer executors of this will and testament. Bob Aldrich wills his excellent drawing ability to Philip Rittgers, provided he draws only glamour pictures. Jane Corbett leaves her advanced shorthand book to Catherine Jones. This holds only if Catherine will agree to burn the midnight oil until at least 2:00 a.m. Dale Leonard wills his flash-bulb camera to Merle Boll so he can try to get just half as many interesting pictures as Dale does. Joyce Dougherty leaves her singing ability to Catherine Hanlon. Only one catch. Catherine, is that you must learn to do the bee-bop. Mary Ann Grove bequeaths her way with the Van Meter boys to Kathryn Jamison, on condition that Mary Ann can be chaperon. Frank Andreini leaves his wonderful personality to Danny Gardiner to help him win that certain seat on the basketball bus. Martha Hanlon's position as cashier in the hot lunch program goes to Betty York. A little advice is to steal a bite to eat so you won't starve waiting that extra half-hour on the basketball boys getting dressed. Marian Creger wills her good posture in typing class to Royce Gilham. Why not practice it in the assembly, too, Royce? Bill Cramer's slick-chick look is left to Gene Anderson. Here's hoping you get as far with it as Bill, Gene. Pauline Bain leaves her ability to tell jokes to Mafalda Ori, provided she won't blush as much as Pauline does. Alfred Ori wills his seat on bus No. 1 to Francis Woodward, provided he sits in a front seat and keeps his eyes straight ahead. Yolanda Ori, you get Ann York's favorite old saying, Leave It to the Marines. This will put that certain hello in your voice when the telephone rings. If Jack Williams will grow just a wee bit taller, Bill Fox will leave his center postion on the basketball team to him. Carolyn Hunter leaves her ability to go steady to Darlene Merical. Darlene, you MUST remain true-blue, though. (Continued on next page) — 14— CLASS WILL CONTINUED) —(continued from page 14.) Gene Huston wills his curly hair to Richard Kramer. Gene recommends Toni Creme Shampoo. DoLores Paullin gives up her dimples to Jeannette Baumeister. You must smile at ALL the boys though, Jeannette. Bob Cadwell leaves his Romeo'' ways with the eighth grade girls to Dury McKinney on the one-date-a-week basis. Shirley DeLay leaves her ability to give those extra whacks in a basketball game to Frances Clark, as long as she does it when the official isn't looking. The title of Mr. America, now claimed by Bill Day, goes to Dick Felt if he'll promise to do at least twenty-five push-ups each morning before breakfast. Roberta Clayton leaves her long fingernails to Hattie Wright, provided Hattie drinks a lot of milk to make them strong. Donald Craig wills his lovin' technique to Charles Lux, as long as he doesn't steal Don's title of Snuggle Pup. Doris Ann Lux bequeaths her B.F. charm to Kandy Klingaman. Kandy, the B.F. stands for boy-friend. Donnie Lux gets that manly physique of Gene Dluhos. With it goes the chance to fill Gene's place as key man on the basketball team. Dolores Meusburger leaves her typing ability to Wanda Leach. Wanda, you must work for nobody but lawyers, though. Joan Creger wills her quiet disposition to Maryellen Faber, especially around that certain someone. To the whole Junior Class, Joann Fritz leaves her ability to keep your group marching on toward the Senior Class of 1950. In Witness Whereof, we, the Senior Class of 1949, the testators, have set our hands and fixed our seal hereto this nineteenth day of May in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and forty-nine. CLASS OF 1949 —15— CLASS PROPHECY How time flies! It is now 1969, and I find myself visiting towns and communities where I have lived. Here I am at a great mining center, the prosperous town of Waukee, Iowa, where a big celebration is in full swing in honor of Frank Andreini, who has been elected Governor of Iowa. I stopped at the new modern railroad station and, to my surprise, the ticket agent was Gene Huston. Come on over, Gene said, and I will take you to a big circus so that we can see many old schoolmates and do some celebrating ourselves. At the circus grounds someone was shouting, Right this way, right this way, see the little monkeys. Gene said, I suppose you know that barker? Bless my soul! It was Alfred Ori, weighing 256 pounds, mustache and all. He said that he was married and had four boys. I asked him if he married a local girl and he said Mary Ann Grove had been a very wonderful mother and wife until she decided to travel faster than the circus, so she was now in Long Island, New York, singing with a traveling mike. Alfred said he had put the boys on the circus payroll riding ponies. We next turned our attention to the lady wanting to tell our fortunes. You've guessed it, DoLores Paullin was jabbering and jibbering at us. I found that she had decided to get even with the men by not marrying any of them and still fooling them all. At our side were the lions' cages and standing guard was our old friend Gene Dluhos. He had been in the deep jungles of South America hunting wild beasts and was a second Frank Buck. He was very prosperous and had married the sweet little nurse, Ann York, who was a circus nurse to people and animals alike when the regular veterinarian was away on business. It seems as though Bill Cramer had become a great veterinarian, then decided to be a lawyer after he married Doris Ann Lux. But, as she was a famous dress designer in Chicago, she had no time to give Bill and so he traveled, trying to forget his great heartbreak. Inside of the big tent our glance caught a sign saying, I challenge any man to lift more weight than this woman. That woman was none other than our great athlete Roberta Clayton, holding 100-pound weights in each hand and displaying her strength with big, bulging muscles. At her side was the mysterious looking sword swallower, Shirley DeLay. I was a little disturbed by the sad look in her eyes, but Gene explained that she had just laid away her third husband, due to the fact that she tried to teach all three of them her profession.

In the fall, the first dances of the season are sponsored by the council. With the advent of the basketball season the council aids Mr. Lauger by taking over the sale of season tickets. When the basketball season really gets under way, the members of the council help at the refreshment stand. This group also serves as the nucleus for the carnival committee. The student council stands ready at all times to come to the aid of the school administration in the planning and execution of various extracurricular events and activities. —29— HOME ECONOMICS BACK ROW: Colleen Dittmer, June Gilham, Ann York, Virginia Jamison, Donna Swallow, Mary Grace Fiori, Janet Bartelt, Janet Harrison, Doris Ann Lux, Irene York, Beverly Walker SECOND ROW: Patty Deskin, Georgina Corbett.

Besides having some new and different units, namely, laundry and housekeeping, the homemaking girls planned, cooked, and served the School Board-Faculty Dinner and the F.F.A. Father-Son Banquet. All three classes together entertained mothers and other guests at a style show followed by an afternoon tea. SENIOR CLASS PLAY Romantic Ricky, a three-act comedy under the direction of Mrs. Messick, was presented by the Senior Class on April 28 in the High School Auditorium. The play centered around Sheila and Carol, two teen-age girls, who have looked forward to the arrival of young Ricky Brown and extremely disappointed when he turns out to be nothing but a square. They hire a muscular young salesman to impersonate Ricky for the benefit of their friends, and try to keep Ricky out of sight. At the same time they want to calm down the indignant Ricky because Sheila's father wants to make a business deal with Ricky's father. The result is a hilarious comedy. The cast included: Dale Leonard, Gene Dluhos, Joann Fritz, Martha Hanlon, Pauline Bain, Shirlev DeLay, Gene Huston, Bill Fox, Bill Day, Mary Ann Grove, Bill Cramer, Bob Cadwell, Joyce Dougherty, and Roberta Clayton. —30— F.

Later in the summer fourteen of the boys, Mr. Donald, and Mr. Meyer went on a tour of the West. In the fall, members took charge of a food stand at the National Plowing Match at Dexter, and were also present at the Soil Conservation Field Day at Indianola, Waterloo Dairy Cattle Congress, and the National F.F.A. Convention in Kansas City. During the winter an F.F.A. basketball team was organized, and several scheduled games were played with near-by towns. President . . . Vice President . Treasurer . .

The Warriors opened the season November 12 on their home floor against Washington Township and had no trouble in winning 46 to 16. On November 16 they tackled Johnston and came through with another win 38 to 29. On November 19 the Warriors met a long-time rival, Grimes, which they successfully disposed of 39 to 30. The Warriors journeyed to Redfield on November 22 where they won again 41 to 22. The Lions' Club of Waukee went down gallantly on November 26 to their defeat 27 to 5.

HIGH SCHOOL MUSIC That wonderful music you heard at the pep meetings and the basketball games was the Waukee band. It has only twenty-two members, but each year it's membership is increasing. The prospects for next year are good as only one member will be graduated. Some of the members—Bob Manders, Virginia Jamison, Gerald Young, and Jack Martin—received their third letter this year. Jane Grove, Ellen Aldrich, Gerald Young, Joanne Paullin, and Jack Martin were chosen to go to Perry for the County Music Festival on March 19. The band also played at the local Spring Concert. As yet, there are no uniforms, but plans are to raise sufficient money to purchase uniforms in time for next year's contest. The Girls Glee Club consists of eighteen members—six first sopranos, six second sopranos, and six altos. On April 9 the girls sang in the Music Contest at Indianola. Our numbers were, Were You There by Hawarth, Hymn to the Night by Kampsbell-Tip-ton, and Cherebin Song by Bartniansky. During the year the Glee Club sang for the Spring Concert and for Commencement. The Girls' Sextet entertained the Lions Club at a Christmas dinner and also sang for a pep meeting. At the Spring Concert and Farm Bureau meeting the girls were well received. Roberta Clayton and Donna Potter sang first soprano, Joyce Dougherty and Catherine Hanlon, second soprano, and Ann York and Darlene Merical, alto. Their contest numbers in the Music Contest at Winterset on March 12 were The Swan by Kramer, and Velvet Shoes by Evans. Those four jolly fellows you see wandering down to the music room every Thursday are the members of the boys quartet—Gene Huston, bass; Bob Clarkson, baritone; Bill Cramer, second tenor; and Frances Jamison, first tenor. On March 12 at the contest in Winterset, the Quartet sang Serenade” by Bliss, and Carve Dat Possum by Lucas-Cain. These boys sang for the Junior Play, Farm Bureau, and Spring Concert. The Mixed Chorus was a balanced group of 20 members. Gloria Patri by Palestrina, My Heart is a Silent Violin by Fox, and Morning by Speaks were their Contest numbers. They also performed for pep meetings, Dallas County Music Festival, baccalaureate, and Spring Concert. Mrs. Hazel Hawbaker was the accompanyist for the Glee Club and Mixed Chorus at the contest. —41— BAND FRONT ROW: Nancy Aldrich, Sandra Lauger, Janet Bartelt, Larry Kramer, Virginia Jamison, Robert Manders.

GRADE MUSIC CHRISTMAS OPERETTA The Magic Christmas Bell a one-act operetta by Catherine Allison Christie was presented to the public on December 20 in the school auditorium. The cast included grades one through six. The leading roles were Santa, played by Larry Holsman; Wimble, Joanna Broderick; Nimble, Doris June Huston; and the three Jack-in-the-Boxes—Donnie Burger, Richard Aldrich, and Dicky Copeland. The scene of the operetta was Santa's Toy Shop. As the curtain opened, Wimble and Nimble were discovered cleaning Santa's Toy Shop. It was Christmas Eve, and they were wondering how Santa happened to leave without his usual good-byes. As they were talking, they heard a jingle of bells, and Santa came rushing in. He was so tired with the last minute preparations that he had decided to rest a bit before his long, hard journey, and had overslept. How would he ever get to the world on time? Wimble and Nimble put their heads together and finally called on the Magic Bell of No-Man's-Land, which in turn, called Santa Claus' Helpers from near and far to help distribute Christmas gifts. And they came, group after group, eager to make the little children happy in their own land, until they provided for all countries. Santa's helpers were Swedish Children, Scotch Lassies, Japanese Ladies, Dixie Dolls, Christmas Trees, Chinamen, Spanish Dancers, Balloons, Indian Maids, Puddings, and Cowboys. Santa thanked them and promised never to offend again, and they all scurried homeward before glad Christmas Day. INSTRUMENTAL BEGINNERS Who said grade school children can't play instruments?

I discovered Carolyn had married Dale Leonard, and Dolores was a stem spinster or man hater since losing Bob Aldrich to Martha Hanlon. Dale was the trainer for his wife's horses. Bob Aldrich, along with Bill Fox and Bob Cadwell, were swinging from one trapeze to another with the greatest of ease, Bill having learned his gracefulness swinging from limb to limb taking care of his bees in the big honey business he operates. As the white horses left the center circle of the tent, I noticed Joyce Dougherty, dressed in a beautiful gown, advance to the microphone on a nearby stage and sing a song as only anyone with such a voice could sing. Gene informed me she had spent two years in Paris studying music. Then here came Billy Day. He was having a hard time trying to stick on the back of a big, slippery boa constrictor. He was coiling a couple dozen bull snakes around his neck—just for laughs. As Gene and I roamed on around the tent, I was astonished beyond words when there was tiny and alluring Pauline Bain riding a motorcycle with a big, vicious-looking lion on a seat behind her . Her winning smile had its effect on the lion, and she was world famous as a lion tamer. Some big shot stepped up to us and shouted, get back. Keep away from the little lady. How would you like that lion to take a hunk out of you? Believe it or not, it was Donald Craig, the circus policeman. Look, here comes the big parade! This is where we really got the surprise of our lives, for there came the little Creger sisters, Joan and Marian, riding on the head of the biggest elephant in captivity. Next came Joann Fritz rid-, ing on the horns of an Alaskan reindeer. Pretty Joann was waving the blue and gold flag, the colors of the Seniors of 1949. As soon as the parade was over, Gene left me. He went to see the owner-operator of the circus, Jane Corbett, about moving on. I decided to leave the grounds. As 1 left, I noticed big blue and gold letters over the gate reading, 1949 Waukee Alumni Circus Company. PHYLLIS GARDINER: I guess everyone has peculiarities. What is yours? BILLIE BAIN: Why I have none. PHYLLIS GARDINER: Which hand do you use to stir your coffee? BILLIE BAIN: My right, of course. PHYLLIS GARDINER: Well, you see, that’s yours; most people use their spoon. MRS. McEVOY: How was iron discovered? JANET BARTELT: They smelt it. MR. MEYER: Name three kinds of courts. DONNIE LUX: Supreme, district, and tennis.
