Seniors Tell Future Plans

Since this is the last year of school for the seniors, it is interesting to find out what their after-graduation plans are. The question is: “What do you plan to do after graduation?”

Dottie Adolf: Continue working at the telephone office as far as I know.
Eldon Jackson: Go so far away from Cherokee. It will take $6 to send me a penny post-card.
Jane Shultz: Work, if at all possible, for a few years and then you never know!
Charlene Conley: I’ll either find a job in a city during the summer and go West in the all, or go immediately after graduation.
Mary Lou Byouer: Get married and move to Rockwell City.
Al Alingh: Learn to eat rice and then hire a slow boat to China.
Patsy Florine: I’m attending college at Ames in the fall, but this summer I plan to work and loaf (if possible)
