You will remember way back in '53 and '54 when .... You Wore duck-tail haircuts and middy blouses, You learned to bop to Daddy, Daddy! and hummed My Secret Love. The Kcngaroos won eight football games out of ten, and became one of the five high-scoring teams in the state. Spring came around, the 'Roos Won the District Track title, and Senior Play rehearsals began to roll. You began to realize it was all nearly over as the Seniors prepared for the trip to New Orleans, and for Graduation on a starlit evening in May. The luniors were busy with plans for the Prom, and the Sophomores were successfully completing their first year in Senior High. ln the pages of this MELON VINE, our camera has captured these busy, gay, and resourceful days .... days never to be forgotten.

Max fKolenkhovJ Kele's School of Advanced Russian Ballet, was blown up last Thurs- day night as a result of the high- powered experiment of Vernon Tyus, Tommy Dent, Bobby Driver and Bobby Thompson, the four joint owners of the We'll-Take-It With-Us Fireworks Company, lo- cated next to the school. Luckily Max remained uninjur- ed, and he succeeded in rescuing several of his pupils, Juanita Wooldridge, Tommy Locklear, Ver- da Mae Measures, Herbert Bullock, and Don Plowman. Fortunately, these four suffered only minor in- juries and will still be able to make their debut next week at the Cog- burn Follies, produced by Larry Cogburn and directed by that fa- mous couple of the modern theatre, Winnie Wallace and H. C. Yeats. fThe charred tights of the gentle- men will have to be replacedj. EX-STUDENT. CHAMPION WRESTLER. ACCEPTS POSITION IN W .H. S.

Patterson, Jr., hydrogen magnate, is honoring Dr. Bill Vin- cent with a dinner May 12 at the Sky Room of the famous Lowry Club, located on Crater Number 19906-B, Moon.

Bill has recently received the de- gree of P.H.D. fparticularly high- powered drivingj from the Honor- able Don Larry Grisham., President of Carbo-Rater University, for his brilliant perfection of a rocket ship fchartreuse of coursej with a Ford V-8 motor. Bill attributes most of his suc- cess to his devoted wife and assist- ant, the former Miss Mailyn Kelly. Their small son, Julius, was the first to ride in his father's rocket ship. He hasn't been found to date, although Mars reported that he had been by and waved. Bennett Will Announce Plan To Become World's Greatest Poet At Party ol 1954 W. H. S. Exes At Malone Mansion Mr. Joel Bennett, famed poet, who has just returned from his weekly trip abroad, told a GRASS BURR reporter that his plans for being the greatest poet in history were almost completed. His poem, Why I Love to Compose, made him famous at the 1970 Poetry Winner's Association in Cool, Tex- as. Mr. Bennett says that his wife, the former Virginia Dews, has in- spired him greatly to do such out- standing works in the poetry field. Joel and Virginia are expected to attend the annual party of Weath- erford High School exes, graduates of 1954, in the beautiful mansion of Eddie Malone, pro golfer, and his wife, the former Billie June Terry. Eddie's personal servant, Bob White, will be expected to go by foreveryone in the Senior Class of 1954 on his new streamlined scooter, given to him by his master for errand reasons. Mr. Bennett will read his famous poem to the class, assisted by his wife, Virginia, at the piano, with assorted musical notes from Rachel Williams, Barbara Eglen, and Bill Prichard- Terrible Trio of 1973. MELVIN WOODY WINS CASE, RETURNS FOR WEDDED BLISS Mr. Melvin Woody, resident of Weatherford many years ago, and a member of the Senior Class of Weatherford High School back in 1954, finally won his case against the Texas and Pacific Railroad Co. here in the final hearing, Thursday, May 6, at the Parker County court- house. This suit has been in the court files for nineteen years. Mr. Woody first filed charges and sued the T. Kr P. Railroad when he went with his Senior Class on their trip to New Orleans, La. Mr. Woody was left in New Orleans by mistakeg the class did not realize what had happened until two days later. Because class funds were exhausted, they were unable to send for Melvin. He had no money to come home, so he went to work suing the rail- road. In order to live, Melvin se- cured a job as plate-scraper at the famous restaurant, Arnauds. As the years passed, he continued his job and working on the case, he determined to win the suit. Today, Mr. Woody, who is owner and sole manager of Arnauds, won his hard-fought case, due to the help of his two brilliant lawyers, Mr. James Langford and Mr. Tho- mas Jackson, who were once old friends of his. Mr. Woody, since he has return- ed to Weatherford a rich man, has finally asked the girl of his dreams, Miss Rosa Lois Estes, to be his wife. By the way, the settlement made on Woody's case by the rail- road was one railroad fare to New Orleans, so Mr. Woody will have to buy one fare for Rosa Lois. THE GRASS BURR LADY WRESTI.ER'S CLUB TO GIVE CHARITY EXHIBITION The Lovely Lady Wrestler's Club will give a charity exhibi- tion at the new and modernized Kangaroo Stadium next week. The money will go to aid the twelve children of Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Galbreaith. Galbreaith's wife, the former Yvonne Brannon, plans to use the money to set her husband up with a new hot dog stand. The main event of the evening will be a tag team match with Killer Colgin fformerly known as Sally Colginj and Muscles MacCabe fknown as Audre Mac- Cabe during her high school daysj matched against Kowgirl Kelley, Eva Earl to us, and Jawbreake1 ' Jewel four own Jewel Chilcuttl.

The event will be broadcast coast to coast on the Dunn Network, owned by Jackie Dunn. That fa- mous sportcaster, Michael F. Mur- ray will be guest announcer. HARRELL TWINS CELEBRATE WEDDING ANNIVERSARY WITH GALA PARTIES Never to be outdone by the oth- er, LaTrelle and LaVelle Harrell have kept their so alike ways since high school days. On the night of January 1, 1958, the Harrell twins, LaTrelle and Lavelle, were married to Bert Pil- ley and Don McCarty respectively. The Honorable Weldon Lefty Parks, Justice of the Peace of Fow- ler County, named after Herbert Fowler, hero of World War III, said the necessary words in order to marry the couples. And now, fifteen years later, the twins and their husbands are cele- brating their wedding anniversary together. Present for the occasion is the famous doctor who delivered the two sets of twins belonging to the twins, Doctor Harry Joe Moore and his surgical assistant, Rosalee Moore. The twins are now thirteen years old and each set is identical to their mother, and ince their mothers are identical, it is most confusing to outsiders to see six identical people when they are out together. Both sets of twins, fLa- Trelle's are LaBelle and LaDelle, and LaVelle's are LaNelle and La- Fellej have been reared identically. Also present for the occasion will be the five personal nurses of the twins' twins since babyhood: Shir- ley O'Donald, Mildred Lytle, Sue Wolfenberger, Janice Gore and Mary Dawson. They have been re- tired for several years now but still receive a salary of 825,000 each year. MISS UNIVERSE CONTEST SCHEDULED THIS MONTH AT PALM BEACH. FLORIDA Bob Bradford and his world- famous Hungrier-Than-Ever Five will play at the Miss Universe Con- test to be held at the plush Barker Hotel at Palm Beach, Florida.

C EERLEADER For the Cheerleaders, the yecr's work began in the middle ot the summer when they reported to the tglieorlearling school held at Southern Methodist University in Dallas. After spending a week in class work, they returned home to begin regular practice, plan routines, and to select uniforms. For the duration of the football season, the six leaders were busy planning and staging regular rallies, leading the rrlieoring tor all gaines, and operating the concession stand for B Team games. lfftch Cheerleader assumes his duty at the beginning of his junior year and serves two years, rlurihfi which time he must maintain lnterscholastic League eligibility.
