Above, many new and used vehicles at Bluffs Toyota, 3554 South Expressway, were inundated when the parking lot flooded. Below, a retaining w all next to new apartments along Franklin Avenue tumbled to the ground. Ph.oto by Darklne Rowe • ., 2 Friday, September 10, 1999 The Flooa of '99 The Daily Nonpareil Photos tell story of record rain It rained intermittently all day on Friday, Aug. 6. By early Saturday morn- ing, the rainfall turned into a deluge and obliterated a record that had stood for nearly a century in southwest Iowa. The storm tha t hit Council Bluffs and the surrounding area was an historic and memorable one. In a span of less than 24 hours, it dumped an official measurement of 10.48 inch- es of rain on the area, break- ing the record set in 1903. Area residents awoke to find a mess left in Mother Nature's path. Streets and intersections were flooded, retaining walls were washed away, bridges were damaged, cars were seen floating down city streets, basement walls collapsed, parks were under water, sewers backed up and, in some instances, peo- ple were forced from their homes. Many residents saw a lifetime of memories washed away by the flooding. But such storms can also bring out the best in people. By mid-morning Satur- . day, residents were helping their neighbors clean up after the storm. Cleanup efforts for some were com- pleted in a few days. Others are still strug- gling as they try to return their families' lives and living quarters to pre-flood status. "I've never seen it this bad," said Council Bluffs Mayor Thomas Hanafan shortly after the rains ended. • He had taken office just months before a series of tornadoes devastated the west side of the city in 1988. Extra firefighters and police officers answered the call to help deal with the emergency situation. Red Cross and Salvation Army personnel and volunteers immediately mobilized. A disaster declaration brought federal and state officials into the area to help assess damage and offer assistance. As the mayor noted, there is no way to adequate- ly prepare for this type of situation. Area residents will long remember and want their children to remember the record-breaking storm. Thanks to the pho- tographs ·submitted by Nonpareil readers, this spe- cial section will help capture and preserve those special events. Those who submitted flood photos may pick them up at The Daily Nonpareil office, 117 Pearl St., beginning Monday. Photos cannot be mailed back. Photo by Duane E.

Middleton Principal SENIOR CLASS OF 1942 Edwin Talbott President The foregoing instrument was signed by the Class of 1942 in our presence and by them published and declared as and for their LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT and at their req uest and in their presence and in the presence of each other, we hereunto subscribe our hands this day and year. Nine A Trip to Heaven (A Closs Prophecy for Closs of 1942) S-s-s--, boom, tinkle. And I felt myself being hurled rapid! through space. I should hove known better than to appear in Miss Graber's English class without my assignment reod.y. I tried to catch hold of a cloud as I went by. Then I clutched at the moon, the planet Mercury, and the Milky Woy, but without avail. On I sped into Eternity. Then I stood before the Golden Gate . Saint Peter began to ask me questions a bout my innumerable post sins but any one with expe rience in giving excuses for things undone at Underwood High School has nothing to fear from a mere Saint I hod no trouble at all in persuading the old gentleman that I was more of a saint than he was, although Miss Olden and Mr. Dunlavy would quickly hove seen through my line of explanations. Saint Peter handed mo a slide trombone, explaining that they were all out of harps in Heaven, swung open the Golden Gate and there I was in Paradise . The first matter that caught my attention was a number of little cherubs se lling newspapers. I listened to the ir cries and this is what I heard : "Extra! Principal of Underwood High School is very sick! Grieving over loss of brightest boy in senior cla ss!" About this time I began to sprout wings, but I was aroused from this discovery by anothe r cry. "Extra! Extra! Principal Middleton hos died and gone to Heaven!" So I returned to the Golden Gate and stood on hour waiting . But nobody showed up. Finally there was on increase of shouting from the heavenly newsboys. "Extra! Extra! Principal Middleton does not show up at Heaven ." Wondering about Heaven several hours later I come upon a lot of angels looking through telescopes, and having a grand time laughing at what they sow. I procured a telescope, adjusted it, and there before my vision was the good earth, the town of Underwood and all my friends of Underwood High School. The sight was a little blurred so I twisted the adjustments, and beho ld there was the earth again in the year of 1970. W ell, well, I thought, here is a chance to see what my old friends ore up to. Usi ng my new immortal power, I ordered my telescope to focus itself. Sure enough, across the Atlantic it went. Across Ital y, Greece, and into Turkey. The City of Constantinople loomed up before my gaze, the palace of the Sulton . Yes, here was the inner Court of the Sul ton's harem-and-soy! Could it possibly be true . Sitting in majesty upon a throne, receiving the plaudits of the other ladies of the harem was none other than our own Donna Herrill. "Great work, ol d telescope," I said. " Now show me some of the other girls." It hesitated and wavered for a moment, then bock it streaked to the old home town ond up to a house with o sign in front of it "Old Ladies Home," and the re, sitting comfortably in the front room ploying checkers were Verle Herrick and Mary Killion, ond Betty Anderson wa s sitting watching them ove r her knitting. Poor girls, I always thought they hod better things in store for them than this. But on rushed my te lescope . North we scurried over Canada, and up to cold frigid Alaska. Here we Ten stopped before on Esk imo Igloo. The father of the family was away but ploying around the Igloo entrance were fourteen little Esk imo children. I soy Eskimo children yet they hod a look about them that was familiar. And almost at once I knew why, for there issued from the e ntrance the mother, considerably more plump than when I knew her lost, but sti ll the some old Pat Kenealy. She always hod to be at the top o f everything and here she was at lo st " sitt ing on top of the world." My telescope was impati en t so I let it go on. Bock to New York City, and right into a ladi es' athl etic club. Before I could halt it we were inside the Turk ish both. There, with only their heads protruding from the tops of steam boxes, each with three chins but reconizobl e yet were Maxine Dose and Maxine Ellis. Just as I thought I I knew when I was bock home that if those two girls didn't stop getting so much candy from their various boy fri ends they would e nd up like this. And then my te lescope took a short swing . He re we were at the Fo lli es, my how those gi rls could dance ! And right in the middle of the line, stepping o s peppy as any o f the rest of them, were Doralee Klopping and Rosemary Osborn. Those gi rls must be nearly fifty yea rs o ld by this time but you wouldn ' t know it to see them. Make-up con do marvelous things in cove ring a girl's age! And then right boc k to Underwood High School. How natural it looked. Nothing seemed changed o bit. But who do you suppose was scrubbing the corridor floors wearing a cop label ed Assistant Joni tress! It was N~rma Benson. You'd wonder pe rhaps how she would make use o f her store of Geome try and Algebra on a job like this. Neverthel ess, he re she was. We often wonder what happened to Virginia Hemmingson. My te lescope turned to Russia where she is doing post-war nursing. I then focused my te lescope on one o f Virginia 's best friend s, Shirley Ballard who is to be noted o s one of Hollywood's best hoir stylists and make up artists. All th rs time I was wondering whot hod become o f the boys of the class, but even on immortal telescope cou ld not reveal to me more than one scene at a time. Now I hod to restrain myself no longer. Off we went. Chicago wos our first stop. The build ing which e ntered our vision was ve ry modern and prosperous look.ing.. Over the main entrance hung a sign. "Orgoniz~d Rockets of Ame rica. " The telescope pi e rced t ~ building, showed me t~,e general o ffi ce and p~us~­ before a door marked, Special Deportment for ,, oo A ing Children's Ban ks, Ed Nelson, Chi e f oote,~; littl e cord hanging from the door now sa id, Away on firm business." Wi thout waiting any longer I ordered my ro phecyii~? te lescope to be on its way . He re 1s what we faun It Rov Handke driving a ga rbage coll ecting tru ~k . If _ must have bee n his Scotch ancestry showing 1tse getting something for nothing. Playing in a Salvation 1, Army Band, we found John Costor. His better nature overcame him in the end. President of the clerk Republic of Santa Domingo, we discovered to be Horold Esington, sitting in a palace surrounded by machine guns. Harold always said he would be president some day. Lastly we came to Ed Tolbott, manager of Gun-boat Flynn, the contender far the heavyweight championship of the United States. Leave it to Ed to be around if there was going to be a fight! With this my telescope turned to the main office of the Treasury building where we find Merle Russell stumbling over one of his old school favorites-a ten column working sheet. The next twist was to Madison Square Garden where whom should we find to our amazement but Bill Huneke, All Star hockey player. His school basketball proved to be very helpful in his hockey playing. The next stop on the class of 1942 we find the happiest couple in the world D. L. Lowden and Zella Mathias. It seems they were married after graduation. D. L. joined the navy, Zella fallowed him to South America where they live in a bamboo hut with their large family of sunburned children. The last stop was at the Stork Club in Hollywood. There we find Bob Hansen leading his famous dance band and doing quite a bit of trombone soloing him- self. And then my alarm clock rang. Alarm cloc k in Heaven! Certainly not. I awoke groggily and looked at the clock. Five thirty in the morning . I loo ked at the calendar, April 30, 1942. Oh yes! I had set the alarm in order to wake up in time to write that theme for Miss Graber's Engl ish class. My trip to Heaven was all a dream. Perhaps my classmates aren't going to wind up in harems, igloos, rackets, and garbage collecting. Who knows?

"Independent Cusses" Speeding back to Underwood, the new capital of Iowa, for a reunion of the class of 1944 , I began to think of the ambitions of the old 1944 class of U.H.S. As I entered the suburbs of the great city of 1,000,000 population, I was almost knocked out of the seat of my new e lectro hyd ro-mobile, for on a large sign by a huge factory were these words, "Bryce Julius and Herbert McMullen, Soop Manufacture rs." Soon a fte r I, recovered from that experience I was almost run ove r by a large de live ry tru'ck that came roari ng down Sunnyside Avenue. Whe n, I finally over took it and forced it to stop I got out to give the driver a piece of my mind, and you con imagine my surprise .when I found out it was none other than De lores Schneckloth. After a short talk I learned she married Art Christofferson who was ke pt busy raisi ng nine children and running a day nursery. After stopping for lunch at a large resta.urant run by the billionaire , Kent Nie lsen, I proceeded to d rive along the Avenue; when I noticed I was almost out of gas. I pulled up to the nearest gas station and whom should I see but Ardis Carlsen coming out of the station. Ente ring the El ite po rt of town, I couldn't be lieve my eyes when I saw Co rl Schorsch ta king Mrs. Van Uppe rbuilt's dog for its doily wa lk ! Mrs. Von Upperbui lt (the forme r Esthe r Hessel) was just completi n'g a world tour wi th the Unde rwood Ope ra Company run by none othe r than Emil Christians. Turning t he corner of 45th and Lone Street, I stopped a t a little white house with a sign by the door sa yi ng " Fortunes Read." Upon entering I was confronted by Bruce Ba rnet and led Madam Zoola's room. Was I surprised to see tha t Madam Zoolo wa s none othe r than Monnie Schmaedecke. As I come out of the house I was met by Duane W e lbou rne who was working his wa y through college by se lli ng magazines. Good sa les ta lk forced me to take a subscription, but I hu rried a way before he could get me to buy another one. Upon visiti ng the office of Wayne Rodenburg, M.D., I wa s met by his secretory, Betty Ann Pete rsen, who told me Dr. Rodenburg was busy performi ng on operation at the Merc iful Hospital. On leaving the office I noticed a fruit stand and wal k _ ed over to get o n a pple, a nd to my surprise, I found Phyllis Wanvi k running that stand. It wa s the busiest corne r in that po rt of town. As I was getting into my ca r, I noticed Jack Stageman and Edna Moe Dose wa lking down the street together. Afte r g radua ting, Jock joined the Marines, and Edna Mae followed him all ove r the country. The a fte rnoon was so warm I decided to toke a wa lk. I happened to look up a t a la rge building , and it wa s not the buildi ng that I saw which made me stop to look twice, but the sign ove r the door which read, " Dudley Ge ise- Undertaker." I was walking bock to my car when I noticed Betty and Bonny Herrick closing up the ir beauty pa rlor. Ten As I talked to them about their business, I learned that they we re going home to see Darlene Hawthorne, who had married a rich man and was now a ssocia ted with the upper crust of society. I started off in my car when a policeman stopped me to give me a ticket for parking in front of a fire plug. Of all people, I d id not expect Orvan Peterson to become a policeman ! I stopped by to see Lauren McBride and Eldon Christensen. They had gone W est ofte r g raduation and hod struck oil in a lonely spot in Oklahoma . They we re now in full control of all oi l pipelines west of the Mississippi Rive r. Marjorie Jensen had mode good a s a hostess o.n . the New Yo rk - Unde rwood Transcontinental Airlines a nd had just landed a t Underwood whe n I visited the airfield. She and Frank Hovey never had .gotte n married because Marjorie wanted to be in the 01 1n es. Betty Nie lsen had been busy all da y in the office of the F. B. I., which hos been moved from W a shington to Unde rwood. As I d rove a long a beautiful garden which wa s owned by Madam Be tty Schorsch, who soon afte r ro d~ot ~ from good old U.H.S .. had come into possession of riches by winning the l 945 sweepsta kes. . n~a and Ke nneth Armstrong we re employed as chief ma id a nd butle r of the large mansion. Then a's I started to hunt up the facu lty of the cla ss of '44 I occ idently ha ppe ned upon M r. Dunla vy, who w~s taking his daily wal k. Afte r seve ra l years a s supe rinte ndent of U. H. S., he had retired and is now living out his life quie tly in a house near the Unive rsity of Unde rwood. He informed m: tha t Alvi na Larson was Professo r of Comme rce in the University. Miss Grubb is the hea d tea che r of Eng lish and Drama - tics at U.H.S. , and it looks a s if she is making good a t it. Miss Dobrovolny won some money from the Pot 0 Gold Program a nd is sponsori ng the Lone Ranger Progra m on Radio Station UHS. . On driving post the City Pa rk, I noticed Mrs. Butl e r a nd Mrs. Mulvihill tal king over old times a cross a park bench. Miss Taylor quit her job a s a teache r in U. H. S. a nd opened an ice cream counte r in a drug sto re on Ma in Street alongside the old schoolhouse. . Just a s the sun. wa s going down ove r the la rge c ity of Underwood I stopped my car in front of the school. Whe n I nt in I found the Class of ' 44 and t.he Fa culty already busy ta lking over old times a nd d is- cussing the ir progress si nce the ir old school days. Eve ryone seems to ha ve a ccompl ished h is desires since he le ft old U.H.S. . bod Afte r on eveni ng of talking togethe r again, every Y le ft to begi n whe re they had le ft off. Everybody has made a success of himself, so I g uess the re is nothi ng le ft for me to worry about. The refore , I sha ll leave this la rge c ity and its inhabita nts to a happy future.

Twenty-five We're Off Again "I got up at five, when did you?" " Got 'chur ticket yet?" " I haven't either," and another Senior skip day was :in the way. Our transportation to Lincoln, Nebraska, consisted of a bus resurrected from the late twenties. The ride to Lincoln was uneventful but interesting. Upon ou~ arrival at Lincoln we checked same things at the bus station and then went to tour the, Nebraska State Capitol Building. Mr. Knapp, the guide, gave an interesting talk both before and after lunch on the building and its materials. · We all agreed we wouldn't mind spendi ng the whole day there. But, ah me! One day doesn't allow much time for loitering. And since the newspaper was next on our list of ·"musts" we proceeded to inspect it at about l :30. The Police Department and Fire Department were next on our list and were really worth the time. Nebraska Unive rsity grounds are very nice tao-as some certain persons will agree-eh? After a day of surprises for service men-a soldier in particular probably thought we were some lunaticswonderful sights at the capitol, astounding statistics :ibout newspapers and other things in general, we embarked from Lincoln at about 6: 1 5 in another irregular bus. A general good time was being had when the bus got to Omaha at 8: 1 7. Afte r a stage show at the Orpheum Theatre, where it was necessary to use binoculars to see the performance- we had to sit so for up- we come home and I con pe rsonally testify that we all slept very we ll except for maybe a nightmare or two due to those Jost steaks. junior-Senior Banquet On May l 0 , 1944, the Juniors entertained the Seniors at a Hawaiian style banquet in the High School gymMount Mauna Loa Island of the Sea Trade Wind Salad Heavenly Breeze Java nasium at 7 o'clock.

They were given by the following: Jack Fox Wayne Rodenburg W esley Mortensen Gene Rodenburg Bryce Jul ius Mr. Dunlavy Musical numbers made the meal all the more e njoyoble.

And So On Our boss at the Underwood Times had sent us out· ta find what had happened to the Class af '45. As we left the newspaper building, we saw the n~e wood Sporting Coliseum an our left. Upon entering, we saw a familiar figure trotting around the gym. We inquired a s ta wham this elegant person could be a nd were informed that it was Roy "The Whi:z::z:er'' Gage, the fastest human who ever lived, outside of Superman. A more ur:believable sight was that of "Murderous Mary Hedegard" and her midget manager, Don Kenney. Mary is known from coast to coast a s the Cham- pion Lady Wrestler. Don is supposed to manage he r, but we have our doubts about that. On ou r way fa the hote l, we dropped into the local o ffice of Esquire , Inc. For no particular reason, we walked into the private office of the ed itor. Imag ine our surprise to find Gene Rodenburg seated behind the huge desk. He was surrounded by five ravishing Varga girls. They were Mory Ballard, Bernice Christ'ionsen, Beverly HemmingS'en, Leno chorsch, and Darlene Suntken•. Their director, Bill Casson, was a 1:.a p resent. We were informed by him that the world's foremost mode l was due to arrive in Underwood a t 8: I 5 on an Eastbound plane from Hollywood. W e reached the a irport just in time to see her i:;ress a gent, D. D. Dunlavy, (who also coaches her in dramatics in his spare time ) arrive. He was closely fa llowed by that curveo s beauty who is known a s "The Girl W e Would Like To Be Ma rooned With On A Desert Island." She was given this title by the Thi rd Ne gro Division of the Eighth Army. This beauty was none othe r than He lena Wurt:z:. Returning to our hotel, wh ich incidentally, is owned and managed by our old pal. Delrie Berg and his charming wife, the former Pat McDonald, we zoomed up to our penthouse in a new e levator. This e levator which trave ls at a speed of 1 mile per hou r (a ccident proof) was bui lt by the ingenious Paul Hessel, who is happi ly ma rried to Audrey Thomas. We entered an apa rtment. which we thought was ou rs, and were surprised to find it occupied by 1 0 spoiled children. They informed us that they we re the 10 little Foxes. The former Ramona Coldwell is now Mrs. Jack Fox. Jack is a very successful ga rbage collector. Across the street from our window, embla zened in yellow and red Neon lights. was the name of Wesley "Th~ Swooner" Mortensen, who is now starring in "One Mad Night" in the Unde rwood Grand Ole Opry. Having decided to attend the evening performa nce , we arrived early and found two old maids busy on their hands and knees scrubbing the stage. Upon inqui ring, we found that they were Mary Meyer a nd Rhoda Iversen. Whi le waiting fa r the performonce to begin, we saw the former Miss Eli:z:obeth Schnell enter with her husband, Van Johnson. She had come to view her star pupil, Wesley. T rue to form, Wesley gave us our money's worth. On our way home from the performa nce . we passed a g;gantic building. A neat sign informed us that it was "Taylor's Tasteless Pickle Compa ny." Farther dawn the street. we stumbled over a pile of rubbish which an old bearded man was scooping up. On his CQrt it said, "Merne Rohlfs, Streetcleaner and Dog Catche r Inc." From him we learned thot Arlene Mognussen end Kenny Ch ristionsen reside on a 6 00 acre fa rm near Neola . Merne seemed positive that the farm was complete ly enclosed by a six foot fence. W e supposed this is to keep the kids in and the rabbits out. On every building in town were advertisements reading, " Let Johnson Be Your Cleaners-We Wash Your Pants While You Wait." Th'is myste rious Johnson turned out to be Norma Jean Johnson, who is taking in laundry for a living. Hard work seems to be ruini ng her forme r youthful figure . In the yard of our hote l, we found a little tree which had pneumonia. We notified a tree surgeon ot once, and in three seconds a red and white truck came roaring down the left side of the street. The driver was Mrs. Mulvihill who had left U. H. S. and is now a n ed tree surgeon. From Mrs. Mulvih ill we learned that Don Talbott is McClel land's most successful bachelor a nd that Clara Joyce Nielsen is doing a fine job of keeping house fo r him. We decided to pay them a visit and caught the Limited Express out of town. On the tra in we chanced to look out the window and down below. wi th a mouthful of cinde rs between his false teeth, was "Baysinger, the Bum." Late r we learned that discouragement over love a ffa irs ha d caused Loren's downfall. Incidentally three mbers of the class of 1945, have formed a Lonely Hearts Club in a vain effort to trap a man. Up to this time they have enjoyed little success. These three charming young women with matrimony in their minds are Alice Casson, Rosemary Fischer, end last, al ~o least. Donna Sinkey. The last one on our list was Miss G~ubb. W e lea rned that she is acting in a radio serial entitled " Life With Mother," sponsoreGJ by Razzle Dazzle Dog Biscuit Company. With this we leave the faculty a nd c lass of '45 ta conti nued success in the ir chosen professions. It's time for us to begin the d ifficult task of selecting our own career.
