DEDICATICDN
FORWARD
Well, dear friends, we. as seniors, have come to the
close of our high school days. Do I hear a few cheers?
Surely no one could be happy at the thought of Finishing
school! fOr could they?J Don't you remember how glad
you were when you practically broke a leg racing up the
stairs only to have the door slammed in your face and
how you beamed with joy when someone would spring
a test on you? I'm sure you all remember the night you
wanted to see a movie in the worst way, but you had
to study for three tests. You just went into Hts of laughter.
fMaybe it was just plain fitsj
But seriously, we've had a good time and just to
prove it, we present our '42 Viking.
WALTER DRENGSON
We seniors hope that
by dedicating our annual
to Walt we are giving a
little of the honor due
him. Each year he has
brought the attention of
many to our school by
the outstanding organiza-
tions which he has pro-
duced.

Thinking back over the past twelve years 1n

Gerard Spaeth and Leona Writer were march
ed by their dotlng mothers into kindergarten
one of the first lmportant experiences of their
young lives
The cries of three unhappy tots were heard
ln the first grade when Viola LuVerne and
played the plano We were all careful to keep
our legs out of the aisles because MISS Andei
son d1d not use her ruler sparingly
Almira entered our proud class of second
graders Her bright answer that the cavemen
probably first obtained fire by lightenmg won
her our admiration Our modern casxnovi 1n
the second grade was Lowell with h1S beauti
ful umbrella may baskets for all the girls
Miss Bell s frequent show of affections was
not lost on us in the third grade especially on
Gold Tooth Remark her pet name for Bob
Loren made h1s appearance that year and
Gerry spent part of the year gomg to school in
St Paul but Joined us again 1n the spring
When we were in the fourth grade we all
got such a thrlll out of watching the pigeons
bu1ld1nff their home in the chimney cornei
outside the w1ndow On belng called out of the
room one day kisses were bestowed on 1 few
of us by our kind teacher MISS Houge for the
maybaskets we had given her Were we em
baxrassed'
In the fifth grade we must have been
whispering bunch because the teachel kept 1
chart of the whisperers Jasper jolned up and
entexs into our stoly whlle Bette Hoes out Un

Soon after entering the sixth grade a sad
experience to occur 1n our young l1ves was the
death of lVIar1lee Garness a classmate of ours
one of the main acts in the Christmas progl am
that year Fox and Goose was the game we
all played that wlnter
No more lining up IH Stl"l1 ht rows and

Warne increased our number of the freshmen
class to fifty. We were all kept one noon be-
cause one member of the class whistled. We
all gave out with our best whistles to help the
teacher tell which one of us had committed
the crime, but it remained unsolved.
We were excited taking our new places in
the senior assembly as sophomores. The new
member in our sophomore class was Jesse. We
built the bonfire that year and had a hard time
but with Mr. Johnson's assistance and after
scouring the country side and vicinity of Ada,
we produced the particular edifice, and our
bonfire proved to be one of the biggest and
best ever. For baccalaureate service our class
decorated the auditorium. Our annual class
picnic was held at Twin Lakes. It was rather
cold for swimming so we decided to have a
wading party, but might just as well have
gone swimming, for after engaging in a water
fight we came out soaking wet anyhow.
As juniors we won first prize for our float in
the Homecoming parade. We showed our
dramatic ability in our junior class play,
"Mountain Mumps", which was a great suc-
cess. A trophy of which we were very proud
was won by our boys in the Inter-Class Bas-
ketball Tournament. Anthony joined our class
that year. We must not forget to mention that
ours was the first class in recent years to have
a prom following the Junior-Senior Banquet.
Our decorations for commencement were con-
sidered to have been very beautiful. We used
great quantities of ferns, lilacs, plum and ap-
ple blossoms. It was truly a bower of beauty.
As thirty-one high and mighty seniors we
are now drawing to the close of our story. Our
senior year has truly been a memorable one.
Our Homecoming Queen was Viola, and our
float again won a prize for its beauty. In the
spring we were entertained by the juniors at
a banquet. In the past years our class has not
had to take a "Back seat" in any of the follow-
ing activities: band, choir, football, basketball,
publications and dramatics. Our Annual has
been the biggest undertaking in our senior
year, and we are proud of it.

Juniors
Plan Banquet and Prom . . .
This year our class of 46 members has been
headed by our president, Betty Remarkg vice
president, Chester Dekkog secretary, Fay
Christianson, treasurer, Jerome Vilmo and
advisor, Miss Renner.
In November when homecoming took place.
our float brought us a first prize of three dol-
lars for its originality.
After many wearisome, yet interesting
practices came the exciting date, October 17.
Our class play, "Miss America", was present-
ed before a large audience for the matinee and
a full auditorium for the evening performance.
The cast of 12 members was directed by Miss
Renner and Miss Ronshaugen,
During practices the cast was entertained
by Ruth Austinson, Fay Christianson and
Mavis Sorenson at Fay's home, Betty Remark
at her home and by Miss Renner and Miss
Ronshaugen at the school house. Other mem-
bers of the cast brought apples and candy.
Of the 33 contestants in the spelling contest
in February, 16 were juniors. Donald Nustad
was awarded second prize of a silver medal
and Marette Williamson the third prize of a
bronze medal.
Our biggest task of the year was the ban-
quet and prom at which we entertained the
seniors on May 18. We carried out a "Keep
'Em Flying" theme.
Our class is well represented in the extra
activities as basketball. football. journalism
and music.
First prizes in both the essay contests held
this year were taken by juniors. Ardis Horn
received first prize on her essay "Education
For A Strong America." Betty Remarks essay
"Characteristics of a Good American" rated
First and Fay Christianson's second.
Decorations and ushers for commencement
exercises were taken care of by our class.

Bu Id Bonfire for I-lomeoommg
We, the class of 44. have for the past nine
months been under the leadership of our pres-
ident. Malcolm Ripleyg vice president, Betty
Lou Olsong secretary, Elaine Hovland and
treasurer, Shirley Thompson. Our class ad-
visor was Mr. Johnson until January when his
vacancy was filled by Miss Mary Jean Bowe.
Our curriculum consists of the required sub-
jects of English, physical education and world
history and the selective group of biology,
geometry, home economics and industrial arts.
Many of our class members also take part in
the extra activities. Eighteen students take
part in the music activities, four in football and
basketball, nine are on the paper staff and two
of our girls have been cheerleaders for thc
past two years.
In order to have a good homecoming it takes
a good bon-fire and we sophomores had an
excellent one this year. Although we had the
misfortune of our float being destroyed before
the parade, we feel it would have taken a prize
for it was a huge military tank with a V for
Victory and Vikings.
To help our country, we began buying De-
fense stamps as a class project. The rest of the
high school followed our policy later in the
year.
Our class party was held on February sec-
ond. It was a farewell party for Mr. R. B. John-
son who was our teacher and class advisor. He
resigned to accept a position in a defense in-
dustry.
As is customary. the six highest ranking
girls and six highest ranking boys acted as
waitresses and waiters for the junior-senior
banquet. We also had the privilege of decorat-
ing the gymnasium for the senior s baccalaure-
ate services.

During the course of the year the various
organizations of the music department have
played a large part in the social activities of
the community. On February 3 the choir sang
at the Winter Shows Pageant at Crookston.
They also appeared on a Meet Your Neighbor
program at Perley and at several Legion and
Farm Bureau meetings.
The most outstanding organization of the
music department this year was the pep band.
They appeared at most of the sub-district bas-
ketball games and at both the sub-district and
district tournaments. During the first week in
August they went on a trip to Yellowstone
Park. a tour they'll always remember. They.
too, have performed at many community func-
tions, including a Farm Bureau meeting at
Hendrum and the Meet Your Neighbor pro-
gram at Perley.
Band Brevities proved to be the highlight
of the year for all musical groups. The band
opened the performance and were followed by
a miniature minstrel completely costumed. A
picture album constituted the third part of the
program including both modern pictures and
pictures from the gay nineties. A choir of 80
voices concluded the performance.

Junior Class Play

A three act comedy, "Miss America," was
chosen as the junior class play and presented
on October 17. It was the first public entertain-
ment of the year.
The cast and characters they played are as
follows: April Fulton, fBetty Remark, a small
town girl entered a contest to please her
fiance, John Halliday, fAnthony Praxelj a
newspaper editor who wanted to increase the
circulation of his paper. A talent scout Uerome
Vilmoj is sent to April's home and she makes
her sweetheart jealous by paying a great deal
of attention to the talent scout. This causes the
plot to thicken. Finally everything works out
well for April and John Halliday.

plasterer, who plays the tuba in the town band
played by Marvin Hammarbackg Hester, Mavis
Sorenson, the Norwegian maid who is always

THE AHS BULLETIN
We ve done It at last' The name A H S Bull
et1n suggested by one of our more industrious
staff members has taken the place of the age
worn Ada H1 H1 This name has been in the
process of reformation for several years and
we feel mighty proud of our effort
But ln order to have a paper we have to
have more than a mere name so let s take an
inventory of all the stuff and things lt takes to
put out our four paged mimeographed b1
weekly newspaper First we have to have
mater1al and to get that we have to have a
staff This particular staff is composed of about
40 members of Jumor and senior high school
students The material we get IS varied some
good and some otherwise but all has to be
corrected and proof read 1n an effort to get
It rlght Then comes those small Jobs of rough
drafting typing the stenclls and running off
the paper. And finally the paper is out on the
desks and in the mail submitted for reading
and criticism.
Now that you know what we do perhaps
you are wondering what we do it with. We
have a typewriter with extra-small elite type
two mimeoscopes fone in running orderj and
a new mimeographing machine. We also have
other small equipment.

THE ADA VIKING
At the N I P A convention held last fall at
Grand Forks the paper rece1ved an A rat
mg foi the first time IH its history Esther Sten
nes and Orleen Warne attended the com entlon
as delegates
We haxe many problems but here comes our
biggest one Putting out a paper costs more
than most people imagine and with the small
amount allotted to publications It IS often hard
to keep It out of the red
Regardless of all th1s we ve liked trying to
give you the best service we can in giving you
the news of what goes on 1n good old Ada High
Your editor has Just heaved a sigh of relief'
The 1942 annual IS completed and with It is
completed the story and pictures that char
acterizc the year 1941 42 and that will make
you remember 1t as a year of fun and work
in Ada High School It has been a hard Job
especially for the responsible persons but we
all feel they have done their work well con-
sidering all the difficulties they have encoun-
tered.
Their biggest problem by far has been in
the securing of necessary funds to make this
annual. Of course the business manager did
solicit subscriptions but that wasnt half
enough. The rest was gotten through the sale

of the activity tickets, the two movies sponsor-
ed by the staff and by the interclass tournament
of which the seniors were the victors.
Another problem was the securing of snap-
shots. This was done through a senior snap-
shot party and by student's donations. Most of
the pictures, however, had to be taken by our
photography editors to fill the extra snapshot
pages that are in the annual this year.
At the Northern Interscholastic Press as-Q
sociation held in Grand Forks last year, the
Viking rated "A" and was the best printed
annual in its division. It also was the best Min-
nesota annual entered. Viola Bloom, Leona
Writer represented the Viking at the conven-
tion.
This is the sixth Viking published and is the
fourth to be printed. The other two were mime-
ographed and planographed. As you probably
have noticed, this annual has been improved as
much as our limited resources allowed. The
new, streamlined cover is different from any-
thing used previously and the editor has tried
her best to make the make-up of the book
varied and interesting.

A Letter About Homecoming ..
wwk,
Viices Played a
Victorious Game
October 11. 1941
Dear Folks,
The day after the night before the bonfire
that wasn't, and the sophies had done a swell
job of getting fuel, we all came back to school
to discover that we were having homecoming
after all, cause it didn't rain enough to make
the field wet. So we didn't have our funny
paper characters either.
Well, to start off with, several of us seniors
were excused from school to prepare the first
prize float, the Statue of Liberty, the part
taken by Leona Writer, and boy what a float!
'We used Sprug Remark's t'Chevy,' and what
a car. The junior float had to push it three-
fourths of the way in the parade.
Well, the parade was supposed to start at one-
thirty, so by two it finally got underway. As
usual the band strutted out in front, then came
the noisy fire trucksg you might say they took
the place of the usual trumpets or bugles that
hail the coming of someone of royalty, because
following them was the Queen's float. The
Queen was perched on top of Mr. W'idsten's
car and the four attendants were riding on the
fenders and such. Behind the Queen came the
famous senior float. the Statue of Liberty.
1, Queens float.
2. Senior float.
3. Junior float.
4. Sophomore float.
Following this was the juniors' float, I don't
remember what it was, but it was given the
prize for the most original float there. The
seniors want to thank the juniors for pushing
us in the parade, of course if we had had a car
it wouldn't have been necessary.
Well, after the juniors was supposed to be
the sophs, but they didn't get very far cause as
the huge white tank turned the corner, BANG!
Y I ! Y it smashed into another car. It sure wreck-
ed the thing. You know if all the tanks are
built like that we sure won't stand a chance
against Germany, but I think it was the people
who made this one, of course it might be that
they hit a better car. On second thought I
know it was.
Parading behind was the freshies, and the
seventh and eighth grade floats, I didn't see
them, but I heard they had Hoats in the parade.
And of course, as usual, along behind the floats
came cars and all the kids.
Well we paraded down the streets of our
big town and then the bunch kinda split, some
to the fairgrounds, and some to the school
house. I went out to the fairgrounds and sat
around until the game started and what a
game!
Nothing much happened in the first quarter,
and we thought sure we would shunk 'em, but
during the second period something happened,
cause gol-darn those Indians, if they didn't
score two touchdowns. Personally I think the
girls were the inspiration, cause from what I
hear Mahnomen girls aren't as good-looking
as us Ada girls, course I wouldnlt know.
Well, during the half came the crowning of
the Queen, I couldnlt see much of that because
of all the kids running around there, but Viola
was crowned, not the way she should be, but
that's O.K., we took care of that later.
The Queen marched out onto the field, with
the two Betty's holding her train, and the
other two attendants carrying the crown-it
was so heavy with jewels, the ten cent kind,
that it took two to carry it. Betty Remark set
the crown on the Queen's head, then the Queen
gave out the float prizes and things and all
marched back. I don't know how Viola carried
the crown on her head when it took two to
carry it before, but she did it, I guess maybe
she's stronger than we gave her credit for.
.29.
By the time the third period rolled around
I had yelled myself hoarse and to top it off it
looked as if the Indians were out to beat us,
but we fooled them by taking the ball away
at their one yard line, course they fumbled the
ball, but anyway we got it, and then Hadler
ran 78 yards for a touchdown. his second of
the season, and then the Indians got mad and
they tried to make passes, but all the wind
from their bragging kinda helped us to inter-
cept their passes.
At the end of the game we were clear down
on our twenty yard line again, and we beat the
Indians 38 to 18, of course everyone knew we
would.
Well I guess that's enough about the famous
Ada High School Homecoming for now. Be
seein' you soon I hope.
Love,
Bette

This past year the nine south sub district
schools organized a six rnan football league

this year also earned letters.
On September 12th the Vikings opened
their 41 season with a bandhdefeating their
hosts Hendrum by a score of 51 to 0. An odd
incident about this game was that although
Ada scored 51 points they made only one first
down with Hendrum also making one. This can
be explained because whenever they got the
ball they either scored, fumbled or returned
punts for scores. In the second quarter a pass
play, Ness to Vilrno, clicked for a touchdown.
This victory greatly encouraged the team and
as a result they edged out Borup 24 to 12 the
following week in the First home game at the
fairgrounds. In this game Dutch got his touch-

down by intercepting a Borup pass and re
turning it for a score At the beginning of the
second half Bob Remark following some nice
blocking ran the kickoff back for a touchdown
A little while later a forward pass taken by
Hadler connected for a tally Although Ada
was outweighed they were fast and shifty for
they continually out guessed and out gained
their opponents for scrimmage
The next week the team traveled to Fertile
and won by two touchdowns 20 to 7 On the
opening kickoff Hadler took the ball on the
two yard line and raced 78 yards for a touch
down A few minutes later he scored on a
quick-opening play to completely baffle the
Falcons. But not for long for they immediately
buckled down and held giving up only one
touchdown the rest of the game. From then on
the game consisted of smashing advances by
both teams with Ada batting down the op-
ponent s last desperate attempts to score. Un-
der their new coach Fertile cut loose with a
razzledazzle style of play that caused the Vikes
plenty of trouble. This win placed us with a
first place tie with Beltrami in the Conference
standings.
On our homecoming we played Mahnomen.
Although outweighed, the boys were not out-
fought. Using pile-driving tactics and showing
plenty of drive for a light team they continual-
ly broke through the opponent's line for long

gains. Loren Christianson opened the scoring
by picking up a lateral and out-racing his
pursuers to tally six points. The score was
pretty close at the half, 19 to 12. with the In-
dians dominating the play the second period.
But the team came to life in the second halfg
scored three more touchdowns, and were
camped down inside the twenty yard line at
the final gun. Final score: Ada 38. Mahnomen

Next on the list was the unbeaten Waubun
team and the Bombers swamped the Vikings
46 to 0. After ten penalties in the first quarter
which amounted to the total of Waubun's 30-
yard line, a series of penalties followed which

put the Vikings deep in their own territory
for the remainder of the game. It actually
turned out to be more of a referee's exhibition
than a football game. This game blasted all the
team's title hopes as they were now down in
second place.
Somewhat disheartened from the Waubun
game the Vikings bowed to a hard-charging
Twin Valley team 24 to 0. They were con-
tinually stopped by the Tiger's line. When
their running game failed to click, the boys let
loose an aerial blitz but their scoring chances
were blasted by interceptions.
This year's trophy was presented to Waubun
the only 100W team in the League.
Action in the game with Twin Valley.
Basketball Team
Has Hot Season
Prospects for the 1941-42 basketball season
looked very promising with nine lettermen re-
turning. We had a total of 19 wins and four
defeats out of our 23 games, which included
such teams as East Grand Forks, Crookston,
Bagley and Detroit Lakes. The Vikings scored
634 points to their opponent's 428 points. This
made an offensive record of 30.2 points to a
defensive record of 20.4 points per game.
For the first time in the history of the new
sub-district, Ada closed the season with 100W
and then came through with the sub-district
championship and second place in the district.
In the first game of the sub-district tourna-
ment, Vikes met strong opposition in the Fer-
tile team, but won 31-17. In the second game
Ada took Mahnomen 44-28 and won from Wau-
bon 34-27 in the championship game the fol-
lowing night. Waubon beat Borup in the semi-
finals which put them into the championship
with Ada. Borup won from Mahnomen for
third place.
Friday, the thirteenth, proved a jinx to the
Vikes for they played Bagley for the District
championship and lost by one basket 20-18.
Bagley's Flyers outplayed the Viking team in
this game and went to the Regional at Fosston
March 19-20. They edged out East Grand
Forks 30-28 in the title match for the Region
8 Crown after upsetting the favorite Bemidji
the previous night.
Ada won the Halstad Invitational Tourna-
ment held January 1-2 when they defeated
Halstad 33-9 in the first round and Hillsboro
for the championship the last night 33-27. The
Vikings have won two championships in the
three years which the tournament has been
played.
The fourth annual Inter-class Tournament
was won by the seniors for the second succes-
sive year when they defeated the junior high
36-17 the first evening and the following night
the juniors for the class championship. The
sophomores downed the junior high 34-16 in
the consolation game for third place.
