 In 1953, seven somewhat uncertain people took the desks in the first row of the study hall. Freshmen row. These people, by the names of Nancy Simac, Marian Asbjomson, Wilma Udelhoven, JoAnn Tuss, Dick Shubert, Bill Sawyer, and Jim Arthur, were about to begin four years of seeking higher know- ledge. The year went fast and soon they found themselves Sophomores. Now they could look forward to initiating the Freshmen and thus getting revenge. This year found the class smaller. Dick Shubert and Marian Asbjomson left them, but they gain- ed through many new and exciting experiences. As Juniors they put on their first play called Off the Track. The play went off well and soon it was time to start work on the Junior-Senior prom. The prom this year was en- titled Song of the Islands. Time passed swiftly after this and soon the school year ended bringing with it the knowledge that they were now Seniors. At last that long-awaited year had arrived. It sped by and soon it was time for the Senior play which was called Cowslip Corners. Then came the Junior-Senior prom and banquet at which they were honor guests. Finally came gradu- ation. Thus ended the high school careers of the Freshman class which started to Winifred High School in September of 1953.

(?1 Z46 PioftAecy The year is 1980. The place is a little fortune telling booth where we can survey the class of '57 through the crystal ball. As we gaze into its depths we see an airplane just landing. As the door opens, out steps Nancy Simac. At last her dream of becoming a stewardess has materialized. But she is soon going to give up her career for a well-known magazine editor, whom she had met on one of her flights. As this scene passes from view the crystal ball clouds over. As it clears again we see a ranch scene. This place looks familiar - why it's the Arthur ranch. It seems that Jim has taken over his father’s ranch, known over the country as the James Arthur and sons Diamond-T Ranch. Next a huge building comes into view. As we look closer we can read the sign, New York General Hospital,” and we see a nurse just coming down the steps. Could it be - why, yes. It's JoAnn Tuss following her high school ambi- tion to become a nurse. She tells us she plans on traveling around to different places and seeing the country. Now the crystal ball fades over again. After much concentration we bring back the scene of a huge insurance firm - We Take All. Here we see the former Wilma Udelhoven. Wilma was a secretary for the firm but soon she married the boss's son. She and her husband now run the firm. Next, we see a huge estate. Is that someone sitting in the shade of that tree? Sure enough, it's Bill Sawyer. It seems Bill discovered a uranium mine when he accidentally kicked over a rock as he was sauntering down the road. He mined enough to retire and now lives a life of ease on his estate. Bill Sawyer wills his eggbeater hairdo to Billy Rich, his typing ability to Melvin Udelhoven, and his ability to arrive at school at one minute after nine to John Hunt. Jimmy Arthur wills his name Dudley to Ray Asbjornson, his friendship with the teachers to Tom Walling, and his parking spot on Lover's Hill to Noble Hamilton. Nancy Simac wills her cheerleading to Shirley Erlandson, her driving ability to Louie Miros, and her butterflying to Judy Udelhoven. Wilma Udelhoven wills her last seat in the study hall to Sharon Sawyer, her skip days to Roland and Frank, and her school schedule to Mildred Stilson. JoAnn Tuss wills her cheerleading to Patsy Arthur, her editorship of the annual to anyone who will have it, and the PN ferry to Helen Duvall.
