CLASS WILL We, the senior class of Woodland High School, Woodland, Michigan, do on this the 26th day of May, in the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred and forty-nine, declare this to be our last will and testament, thus rendering null and void all other wills or testaments previously contracted. First we direct that all of our just debts and funeral expenses be paid in full. Second to our dear Alma Mater we bequeath our honored names so artistically carved on the desks in this fair building, also all pencils and bits of pap er that we may have left behind us. Third to our successors, the Junior Class, we leave the following in hopes that they will graciously ac- cept these small inheritances. I, Arleta Jordan will my favorite cavity for cracking gum to Gilbert Winans. Joyce Smith bequeath's her tongue that runs on roller-bearings to Arlen Heise. To Arthur Allen, I Duane Clum leave one all-day sucker. Mary Bryant wishes to leave to Pat Daniels, her schoolgirl complexion. I, Eleanor Bird, forfeit a dented fender and a flat tire to Philip Born. Ailene Gober wills her library tactics to Jerry Carr. Rose Duits leaves some of her height to Joyce Brownfield. Rose thinks Joyce would enjoy at least one bird's eye view of the world. ' Don Shook forfeits his manly shoulders, that entice the girls, to Duane Rowlader. I, Rosemary Daggett will my art of fooling people that I am shy to Ella Ennes. To Robert Matthews, Phyllis' Green wills her Sinatra-like tendencies. R. Jay Kussmaul leaves his ability to wear butch hair-cuts to Vincent Campbell. Joyce Kent wills her quiteness to Harold Brown. To Bud Vender, Dick Engle bequeaths his acting ability, also Arnold Daniels wills him one ride on his motor bike, to enjoy the country's beauties after riding in a stuffy Packard. I, Pearl Piper leave an ear ring to Kaye 0'Neil. Jo Anne Smith leaves her ability, and whatever else it takes, to get to school at a quarter to nine in- stead of quarter past to Kip McMil en. To Elwyn Raffler, Jeanne Fisher leaves her sharp wit and humor. I, Roverta Manker leave my ability to be physically in one place while mentally in another to Bob Engle. Joyce DeMond wills her true sweatergirl figure to Mary Jane Leak. I, Ernestine Monasmith bequeaths to Joan Begerow, my ability to acquire an engagement ring. Paul Brodbeck leaves his muscles to Marvin Classic, in case he should someday want to carry his bride over the threshold. I, Janice Bates leave my musical abilities to Lawrence Bartholmew who may someday need it to lull his children asleep. Joyce Henney bequeaths her ability to go steady, to Marilyn Sutherland in hopes that someday it will be for some reason other than considering him as a way of getting places. To Don Matthews, Glendon Curtis leaves the hair curlers, with which he does his hair up every night. I, Joy Hampel will my favorite parking place to anyone who can find it. To the Sophomope Class we will our good looks and good behavior. To the Freshmen Glass we leave our love for textbooks and studying. Last, Lut not least, to our teachers we leave 4,000 aspirins for their headaches which they may acquire through the years. Upon leaving our last possessions acquired during our twelve years of brain work and other achieve- ments, to our au:cessors we wish to further emphasize that the great traditions and honors of being a senior be kept as our class has retained them. We hope that the class of 50 will be able to weather the storm as well or better than we did. In witness thereof, we, the class of 49 , do set our hands and seals this twenty-sixth day of May, nineteen forty-nine. Class Attorneys Joyce Henny and Joy Hampel IT

THE CLASS PROPHECY By Jeanne Fisher and Roberta Manker Come with us into the future and let us tell you what has happened to our classmates of the class of 1949. Since we left Woodland High, many things have happened to them and much water has passed under the bridge of time so that 1959 finds: Janice Bates after many years of practice, has perfected her Bates Piano Method and is giving piano lessons in the surrounding communities. Glendon Curtis is now manufacturing a new type of hair curler that he has used secretly for years, but just recently disclosed. Joyce Demond has gone to Hollywood and is working as make-up director for R..K.O. studios. Dick Engle has recently gone to Washington and is taking his place as a member of the Supreme Court. Joyce Kent is head of the accounting department for E. W. Bliss Company but is having a little dif- ficulty keeping her debits and credits straight. Duane Clum has gone to Alaska, gold digging and has found his fortune by a map given to him by one of his old High School professors, Mr. Allen. Rose Duits is now a model for Powers and is finding it quite successful. Phyllis Green who was always fond of singing during her high school days, is now singing sound effects for mystery programs on N.B.C. Joy Hampel is kept busy Awith her house full of red headed kiddies! Don Shook is working as a private eye under ,Sam Spade and has recently been trying to crack the case of the Squeaking Door . Pearl Piper is taking Mrs. Klopfenstein's place as the school cook. Ailene Gober and R. Jay Kussmaul have taken up their fathers plumbing business and are kept quite busy fixing leaky faucets. Rose Mary Daggett bought some stock in the Detroit Tigers soon after she left high school and found herself holding down the job of bat girl. i Paul Brodbeck has won national livestock honors for his razor back hogs. Eleanor Bird is folding papers for the Chicago Sun since their automatic folders have broken down and we hear she is breaking all previous speed records. Mary Bryant has been betting quite heavily lately in the Kentucky Derby horse races and has made quite a haul on Fettlebaum. Ernestine Monasmith is now Mrs. Glen Piper but in her spare time she is designing dresses for Wood- land's New Department store. Arnold Daniels is working for Walt Disney as head cartoonist but says he owes all of his success to his ability to pattern his characters after people he knew during high school. Joyce Smith has started her own Smith Sisters Cough Drops Company. JoAnne Smith is testing baseball bats for the Louisville Sluggers. Arleta Jordon and Joyce Henney are living together on a farm and raising thousands of baby Chicks. But as for the future of Prophets Fisher and Manker it is only a haze of events before us and can not be distinctly told. 16
