THIS IS THE S M159 9 GEM 1 WHITTEMORE HIGH SCHOOL MOMENTS TO REMEMBER . .M ... -...-v .. -mw - Leo Morman Superintendent SUPER! NTENDENT 'S MESSAGE Graduates of '59 In our time of outer space thoughts of travel, inter-con- tinental missels, and atomic motivation we have found our- selves in a fast moving society, a society that is de- manding more and more from us as the days go by. Some of you graduates will go on to places of higher ed- ucation, in one field or another, others will go into the great variety of different trades. Regardless of what field of endeavor you choose for your life's occupation, enter into it with that determination that will bring you to the top in satisfaction and a job well done. Be alert and stand for and defend our way of life. Help at all times to make our land a better place to live. Be fair and square with your fellow man and in doing these things you will have a much fuller and richer life. Leo Morman Superintendent Remember that day, years ago, when you took us by the hand and led us into that great bui- lding? Few of us realize that the steps we climbed that day could lead to such memorable events. Now we have climbed these steps for the last time; the second flight looms before us. As we recall the past, happy memories come to us; but none happier than our thoughts of you, mom and dad. You gave us the strength and courage to face the first flight of stairs. Few of us can forget your love, guidance, and your patience. Without your help we could never have advanced this far in becom- ing good useful citizens. To show you in a small wa our gratitude and appreciation, we, the Senlor Class of 59 dedicate this, the 1959 Annual to you, our parents. DMINISTRATION Mr. J.w. Sykes B.Sy, Des Moines U.'

On the night-of October ninth, we held a skating party for the Freshmen. The following day the freshmen were iniated.

We hope that they enjoyed themselves Our class is well represented in basketball, baseball, softball, band, and mixed chorus. We also have two mem- bers participating in cheerleading. We had fun putting on our Junior-Senior Banquet and we hope that everyone enjoyed themselves.

They were Judy Baas, Donald Meyer, Bill Meyer, Jim Nichols, Dana Pettit, and John Vaudt. Within a few weeks we were initiated by the Juniors which wasn't just quite as bad as we had expected. In March Loveda Ewoldt joined our class. This now made a huge class of seven. Our instructors were Mr. Slagle, Mro Bottorff, Mr. Jensen, Mr. Fernau and Mrs. Waltz. Our class sponsor was Mrs. Waltz. On August 27, 1956, eight sophmores returned to W. H. S. Charles Baker had joined our class. We were glad to be able to set and watch the frightened freshies. During the first semester Loveda Ewoldt dropped out. Our instructors for this year were Mr. Morman, Mr. Jenson, Mr. Conrad and Miss Stratman. Our class sponsor was Mr. Jensen. On August 26, 1957, we started our third year of high school. Loveda Ewoldt rejoined our class and John Christen- sen also joined our class. This year we really thought we were getting something accomplished. We gave a Junior-Senior Banquet at the Plantation and our theme was Oriental Holi- day: We had several class members that participated in ex- tra-cirricular activities. Our instructors for this year were Mr. Morman, Mr. Jenson, Mr. Conrad, Miss Stratman, and Miss Johnston. Our class sponsor was Miss Johnston. On August 25, 1958, nine proud seniors entered W. H. S. to finish their last year of high school. We neither gained or lost anyone this year. Our class included Judy Baas, Dana Pettit, Loveda Ewoldt, Don Meyer, Jim Nichols, John Vaudt, Chuck Baker, John Christensen, and Bill Meyer. Qur instruc- tors for this year were Mr. Norman, Mr. Sykes, Mr. Conrad, Mr. Jensen, Mr. Morey, and Mrs. Riedinger. Our class sponsor an. was M$higoggar was our most busy and memorable year of our high school career. Most of us atteneed the state tourna- mehts at Des Moines. We also attended the Junior - Senior Banquet. We journeyed to Kansas City, Missouri for Skis Day and we all had a wonderful time. There were 9132 many other activities we participated in. Now on may 20, 19,9, we, the1 Seniors of W.H.S. give up our desks, our nrivileges, and all our good times, forever, and go to seek our lutures in the wide, wide, world. mom mas um Cylinder Co-op Elevator Cylinder, Iowa SENIOR CLASS WILL Loveda Ewoldt, will my bashfulness to Ellen Maahs.
