My grandfather, Everett Elwood Ernst, was a freshman at Bloomfield Junior College, Bloomfield, Iowa, in 1937. I recently found his yearbook in my grandmother's estate and would like to share and identify pictures and information. My grandfather's classmates included Madeline Bassett, Audrey Brown, Jane Grim, Betty Lou Russell, Aileen Figgins, Martha Standard, Christine Steeples, Betty Clendenen, Muriel Tisdale, Elsie Hayes, Louise Guthrie, Lois Guthrie, Florence Hendricks, Lois Thompson, James Sloan, Jack Higbee, Rex Jones, Horace Hardy, Justin Martin, Ed Ensminger, Mahlon Miller, Polly Denny, Lawrence Kinsinger, Beach Cline, Craig Henderson, and Marvin Martin. The graduating class (1937) included Isabel Barker, Dorothy DeVault, Emily Norris, Robert Collins, Margaret Hockersmith Boone (the only married member of the student body), Kenneth Millsap, June Sloan, Marne Evans, Dorothy Hill, and Helen Fleming. The faculty included Mr E T Carlstedt (social sciences and dean), Miss Adele Kennedy (French and English), Miss Miriam Hockett (girls' glee club), Miss Doris Beuter (math), Mr Herbert Rhoads (biology and men's PE), Mr Paul V Bissell (speech), Miss Alice Ethell (girls' PE), and Mr H Ostergaard (registrar and superintendent). I would also like to know what happened to the college as it does not seem to be in existence anymore. Kimberly ERNST kimberlyernst@home.com
