NHS (1972 Class 25th Reunion - 19 August 1972)
Twenty-two members of the Neillsville High School class of 1947 gathered
Saturday evening, August 19, at Bali Hai supper club for a 25th anniversary
reunion. Arrangements for the reunion were made by Mrs. Charlotte Jacob of
Ellsworth and Mrs. Velda Jean Volz of Neillsville.
An anniversary cake trimmed in class colors of yellow and white featured the
class flower, yellow roses, and the class motto, “To Strive, To Seek, and Not to
Yield.” The cake was made by a class member, Mrs. Eleanor Reidl of Jefferson.
James Van Tatenhove of La Habra, Ca, class president, acted as master of
ceremonies. Letters read from several classmates who were unable to attend
included special regrets from Cmdr Don Mattson who had planned to attend but was
unable to do so. The thoughts of those present were with deceased class members
Gordon Hahn and Milton Tock.
As the committee was unable to locate several members of the class, it was
suggested that anyone who changes address in the future should notify either
Charlotte Jacob or Velda Volz.

Jefferson; Lewis Durst, Scottsdale, Ariz.; James Haas, Barron; Mrs. Don (Ruth
