Also from Ford Motor Company came Patricia Jefferson, who is a designer of cars. Life has been good to Pat. Macky Whitaker and Lois Meyers came to the party from LaCrosse, where they run the popular “Fashion Store.” Edwin Allseitz is now with the Air Force and is stationed in Germany where he is visiting some relatives. However, he attended the party, as he was home on leave. Steve Kerkes attended the party but was late. Steve is now a very popular publisher in New York. Jesse Collins and his wife, Fatima, looked quite happy, and it was discovered that they have three children and reside on a large farm near Kniman. George Wright and Gregory Schiff were accompanied by their wives. George is a superintendent at Inland Steel and Greg is a salesman for Standard Oil. Attending this party makes one think of the theme for the 1955 Arcus PATH TO THE RAINBOW’S END. Have these people found the rainbow’s end? Their lives would seem to testify that they have.

The Junior play of the Class of 1 55 was “Finders Creepers, a three-act mystery-comedy. The cast included seven men and seven women. The entire production was directed by Mr. Beck. When Wilbur Maxwell, James O’Connor , and Hercules Nelson, Stanley Friberg , went to visit their Aunt Mary, Pat Miller , and Uncle Bob, Doyle Lee , they did not realize Uncle Bob was a mortician. When Mr. Quigley, the man “who ran out of gas,” Kenneth Jones , started walking around and Frankie, Hercules’ younger cousin, Carolyn Martin , started reading horror stories, the “brave visitors were ready to vacate the “house.” Then Wilbur met Celeste, Hercules ' cousin, Lois Meyers , and Hercules met Nina Quigley, Dianne Venekamp , and they resigned to remain and “rescue” the girls from their misfortune. At first they accused Madeline Quigley, Mr. Quigley’s sister, Shirley Davis , and Harry Shuster, the Quigley’s lawyer, Donald Fulaytar, but were rescued from this situation when the real culprit. Dr. Brown, W alter R ossmanith , was uncovered. Many laughs were provided by Granny, Uncle Bob’s grandmother, Anna Hetrick , while the maid Daphne, Karen Williams, and the caretaker, Claude, Carson Bailey, finally got their “arrows” straightened and went away on their honeymoon. 22
