We dedicate our 1954 annual to Mr. Lloyd

R. Denier, who has been a teacher in Ti kilwa
High School for five years.

During Mr. Denier' five years in Tiskilwa,

he has given our cla of '54 a lot of cooperation
and friendline . His advice as our ponsor dur-
ing our sophomore, junior, and enior years has
been appreciated by each of us.

Becau. e he has been loyal to our clas and

school through the busie t of our four years,
we are proud to acknowledge his leadership.

We feel, therefore, that it i proper to be-

stow this honor on Mr. Lloyd R. Denier for his
service to the class and to Ti kilwa High School.

It fell to earth, I knew not \Vhere; It fell to earth, 1 knew not where;
For, .-o .-wiftly it flew, the .-ight Fo1· '' ho has ~ight :o keen and strong,
ould not follow in its flight. That it ran follow the flight of ·ong?

Long, Jon~, afterward, in an oak

I found the arrow, ·till unbroke;
And the "'On~, from beginning to end,
I found again in the heart of a friend.

Over in Arabia in a rundown shanty
Li\ es little Bill Robison, we knew him as Banty,
All through the night while he is asleep,
He dreams of the hills and of watching his Rheep.
And now as we trav 1 on and on
\Ve run aero. s Bob Kenny's reducing :alon,
Hi: Hol:tein · are waiting each night at his hom
Betty Bartman helps milk them, he can't do it alone.
Q. B. and Max were the brains of our class
When we \\ant d to know something we knew who to a. k,
They'r > h ad engin 'ers at a shirt-tail factory,
Their lives have pro\·en quite satisfactory.
There in the headlin s so black and bold

We r ad of th fame \Von by Alma ,J an
She i:s now the champion Tennis Queen.
Oh, no, just look, there's Dick Mill r,
H 's a small time wrestler now known as "killer."
We'll go to the stadium wher he \\T sties tonight,
In high school he got in orne horrible plights.
A Home Ec teach r is Jenny' fate,
To prepar h r studie: sh 'd give up a date,
It se ms that sh never caught her a man

haron talter with hair long and shiny,
Could always hit baskets, she made about ninety,

Her life'· ambition, who'd a:k for more.
he's a dancer, one of the best in the land
People com from all over to give h r a hand

But now Alyce G. really struts her stuff.
T h ere's a . hop that is located near New York ity

Perhaps they didn't know when they were well off, or maybe they
were just gluttons for punishment, but Hercules Nelson's aunt and
uncle had long wanted him to come spend a weekend with them. And
to top it off, they even went so far as to , ay he could bring his bosom
pal, Wilbur Maxw II. o with suitca. es in hand, the boys arrive at
Uncle Bob's, set for a big weekend. That's putting it mildly indeed,
becaus Hercules kno\vs his uncle has taken a n w job, but what he
doesn't know until it's too late is that his uncle is a mortician. That's
right, an und ti:aker. Needless to say, the boy ar terrified. Daphne,
the maid, and laud , the caretaker, try to persuad the boys to stay
but they're all for heading home pronto, especially when th y find
th re's another "gu st" in the house, an old boy named Ja. on Quigley
who "ran out of gas." But th n \Vilbur spots eleste, Here' cou,'in,
and boom-just like that-d cide to stay. Well, it's not long till
things start happening in ways that would put mo t brave men to
flight. For one thing, Mr. Quigley, the guest, walks around, read th
paper and climb into bed with Hercule . He gallivants around in a
mo:t uncorpus delecti fashion. The boy' are mortally terrified. But
they haven't seen anything yet. Mr. Quigley isn't really dead. Some-
one tri d to do away with him \\'hile he was a Jeep, so he evolved a
plan: H 'd make his , ister, Madaline Quigley, and hi lawyer, Harry
Schuster, think he wa dead, then how up at his own funeral and
trap the guilty party. Now Here's for leaving-until he , ee Nina, the
deceased' grand-daughter, and boom-ju t like that-he decide to
tay. Well, no doubt Mr. Quigley had a good plan, but there', two
thing he failed to reckon with: Wilbur Maxwell and Hercule Nel-
son. They et out to solve the ca e and matter , oon go from bad to
wor e to terrible. Hercule. tip.' off Nina that her grand-pop', alive,
she tip off the family, and everything is messed up. Uncle Bob is
implicated and mistakenly cart <;l off to the klink, and the boys final-
ly com' face to face with the culprit, Dr. Brown, the family doctor,
after first getting everyone out of the house who could help them.
The boys finally escape with their n cks, but not before one of the
wildest finishes ever.

ince th e tudent ouncil wa: fir:-;t organized in 1949 its method of

clas: representation ha ' remained the ' arne. There is always a girl
and a boy from each class represent d. At the end of each . erne. ter
an election is held and the new members are elected.

This year the 'tudent council ha, been very active. This organiza-
tion, with the help of th faculty, organized a fin homecoming and
dance. The tud nt council al o was in charge of the hristma. party
and decorations.

At the beginning of the school year the Wyanet tudent council

a ked our tudent council to their chool for a upper, and to exchange
variou, ideas and activities of the school . Later we invited their . tu-
dent council to Ti. kilwa to vi it our chool.

n February 3, th re was a Little Eight tudent council me ting at

Wyanet. Only three schools w re 1)r s nt, but in th near future w
hope to ee more interest in . uch an organization.

The offic r ' for the entire year are: Quentin Broeren, president;
Peggy Anderson, vice president; Pat Hughe, , ecretary.

, , ,

The tudent librarians each . erv a period each day sitting at the
table ch ecking magazines and books both in and out. The Librarians
al. o help keep the book. and magazines in order and n atly arrang d.
