Miss Homan and Mr. Sorknes ' -i: 41197K ER QQ Published by Mae Senior Class of Adams High School Adams, Minnesota In this year 1941 FOREWORD I am sure that Tennyson in his poem, uThe Building of the Shipf' expresses ideals which your parents and teachers have had during the many years that you have been under their con- stant supervision, when he writes? Build me straight, O worthy Master Stanch and strong, a goodly vessel That shall laugh at all disaster And with wave and whirlwind wrestle. ' For many, your voyage of life will soon begin, when you alone must assume the captainoy, when complete responsibility for your voyage will be entrusted to your own judgment.As con- trol of the ship is handed over to you by your parents and teachers, we hope that your ambitions are high, your knowledge sufficient, your judgment sound and that you have profited by those whose experience has been greater than yours. We hope that as a courageous captain, skilled in knowledge,rich in ex- perience, unafraid of the future, confident in yourself, that you will bring your boat through the years of life safely into port.Our hope is that in years to come when you look back over your years, you will find happiness in your accomplishments, eng in the fine friendships that you have formed. I May this Argo with its record of the achievements of the organizations and individuals, help to perpetuate the pleasant memories of your high school days at Adams. May it ever keep alive the cherished friendships you have formed a- mong both students and teachers. H. J.

Pose. lvlollo X The cloov of :success is Labeled push. Senior Class History Class Flower: American Beauty Rose Class Colors: Blue and Gold Class Motto: The Door of Success Is Labeled Push In the fall of 1957, there entered into the assembly of Adams High, forty-two bright eyed pupils all eager to become acquainted. These new students included youths of both male and female, tall and short, and fat and slim types. After great threats from the upper classmen, we all a- rrived the morning of initiation quite scared and prepared to face the worst.Dur1ng the day, we had to obey all commands and, in the evening, we had to entertain all our superiors by giving a program in which each Freshman was compelled to take part. Along the years, as we neared graduation, several of our classmates commenced to give excuses for not continuing their high school educatlon.One said, UI must discontinue, for I must toil at home.n A second said, WI am not brilliant like many of my classmates, but rather I am dull and can not get my les- sons. Still another exclaimed, I am going to be married, therefore I am quitting. And, so like this one dropped out now and another then, until our class enrollment fell to thirty-one As all are citizens, we had to enroll when Uncle Sam took the last census, and we found the composition of our class in regard to nationality very interesting, so here it is: one Frenchman, three Danes, twelve Norwegians, three Irish, and eiqh+ Gesmans. Of course, many of the students are, more or lass, a mixture, and they submitted their answer according to the predominatory nationality. Our Sophomore year was quite uneventful, but the title of Sophomore was indeed, a promotion. I The title of Junior was gladly accepted, and the year spent under this name was quite different to ue. First of all we pre- sented. our Junior class play, 'Young Barry, to make money, and then we gave a banquet at the Fox Hotel to spend the money. The banquet was a joyous event for us, as well as for our guestsu- the Sen1ors.After a full year of hard work,we welcomed vacation. This vacation soon came to a close, and we were again given a new title. This time it was the dignified title,Seniors,which name we held in high esteem. Never before did we realize haw much had to be accomplished before we received our diplomas. We had given a class play, and so the new experience this last year was publishing Egg Aggg. Even though these things have become history, they will al- ways be pleasant memories to that ambitious, adventurous, like- able class of '4l.

In order that Howard may get his degree, his Aunt Maude im- personates a famous zoologist and becomes entangled with pro- fessor, Virgil Bean, Virgil Bergene. At the same time, another group, including the college students, are trying to help Howard get his degree. Ann plays sick, and Vic becomes the doctor , This greatly scares Anne's father, Mr. Purcell, and her mother, Phoebe,Purcell, Virginia Bcnnallie, who is always snooping all around.

I JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY n 1958, 55 students began their Freshman year in the Adams High School. On initiation day, the girls were dressed like boys, and the boys were dressed like girls. OTDSF strict rules, ordered by the seniors, were carried out. , Of the original pioneers 50 remained to enter the sophomore you , and by the time we reached our junior year, we had lost several more members. The officers chosen by the 25 members of the Junior class were: President, Henry Devneyg Vioc President, June Otto, Secretary, Lillian Smithg and Treasurer, Andrew Smith. With Miss Christiansen as the class advisor, the Juniors came through with flying colors all through the year. ' t uToo Many Husbandsu was chosen the class play which the Juniors put on in December. In February, at the one-act in the contest, the play uGrandpa Goes Huntingu was enacted. The first place went to the Freshmen, and the other three pl yr tied for second place. The climax to the Junior life of social activities came at the banquet for the Seniors, in May. The Qiored Heartschurch parlors were tranvformed into a naval scene, with captain, Drew, andlpaasengers iroviding the entertainment. June Otto Pl V -.- . ,, . ... . ..-.

The story wove around Mattie, an exceptional cook por- trayed by Natalie Erokenbrack,in her search for a man to pose as her husband for one evening.It was at this time her employe er,Mrs.Goodrich,had requested that she and her husband be Mrs. Goodrich's guests. Mattie had told her that she had an in- valid husband whose frequent operations were the cause of her requests for increases in wages. Although, afraid of men, Mattie does not dare tell Mrs. Goodrich that she l1ed,th1nk- ing she would lose her job. Matt1e's friends each agree Q50 help her, but no one knows that the others are helping too . On the evening of the party, five Uhusbandsu appeared. Mrs . Goodrich is at first angered at Mattie's actions, but later decides she will forgive her, if Mattie will promise to stay in the services of Mrs. Goodrich until she gets a husband. The part of Mrs. Goodrich was well played by Kathleen Karsburg with Lillian Smith as her daughter, Evelyn. The parts of Tina and Jan, played by June Otto and John Schneider , adds ed a comical note to the play. The Colored janitor , Raphael King, also added a humorous touch. Henry Devney showed diversity in character when he first acted the part of the English butler, and later the invalid husband of Mattie. Lloyd Loftus, in the role of Mrs. Goodrich's son, and his girl friend, Genevieve Bartholme carried heavy parts , placating the various members of the family when Mattie's plot is discovered. Other members who hblpod Mattie into, and out of her trouble were, Mr. Stone, played by Paul Erie, and Mr . and Mrs. Herbert Wells, played by Jerry Krbbtfiicil and Delores Ewald. l The cast presented Miss Buelah Batalden, their coach, with a gift in appreciation of her -efforts to make the play Fl SUCCESS. G G - sau JUNIOR ONE ACT PLAY he Junlor Class chose Grandpa Goes Huntingun as I their one act play. Grandpa Kenmore, Henry Devney g makes his home with his son Franklin, Raphael King, LLM and his daughter-in-law Margaret , Shirley Nagelv Grandpa has as his hobby, hunting rabbits, which Margaret ops Poses. 3683110 Kenmore, Margaret's daughter, was played by Florence Knutson. Grandpa due to an accident captures two men, for whom a reward of S7000 is offered, and calls Sheriff Peters, Edgar Meister. Everything turns out for the best as Johnny Ro- gers, Rosa11e's boyfriend, returns to ask her to marry him, and Margaret and Grandpa are again human to each other, The play was directed by Miss Christiansen.

V SOPHOMORE ONE ACT PLAY he one act play, New Girl in Town was presented by the sophomores. Rod and Wally Campbell, who were played by Archie Hanson and Willard Anderson two typical boys, became rivals to escort the at- Q tractive new girl in town,Mar1lyn Price, played by Lorraine Levasseur, to the band concert. The tricks they play on each other, and the arguments they have in wearing each others clothes, eventually end up in a fight, which is stopped by the entrance of their mother Mrs. Campbell, Dorothy Winkel, who calls her daughter Joyce, Rod and Wally's sister, to her aid. Marilyn deserts them both for a sissy from her home town, which was played very well by Vernon Gosha. The play was coached by Miss Homan. FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY f slightly bashful, pupils and others were just the oppo- fffegx n the first day of school some of us were wide eyed, fl QNX site. Most of us started just where we had left off last year. Others had to start all over in entirely new sur- roundings. We had a few hints on our initiation day, but we had never taken them to heart. At last the day came when Mr. Glesne stood an in front of the assembly and commanded the boys to be dressed Qi tramps and the girls to be dressed in old fashioned clothes. The tramp who looked the most hoboish, and, the girl who looked the most old fashioned, was to receive a free ticket to all the football games as an award. On the next day, we were all there ready to accept the prize The judging did not come, however,until after all the upperclasse men had teased us. It was our super1or's who cast the votes,and the contest ended with Ralph Otto and David Schneider as the most '-37105 Cal JCTHTYIPS, and Jean Ross and Cordelia Whitney as outstand- ing in old fashioned clothes. We all attended the football game in the afternoon, and many of us were sweating like a butcher because of our bundle- -some clothing. After the game we all walked down the town squareg where we gave some yells and cheers for the Adams High School team. when we left the school grounds, N. V. Torgerson took pictures of all of us, looking our best and Wefring our most winning Smiles. when we returned to the place from which we started , we found that the buses were all ready to leevcg and each one climbed into his own bus, very tired after e day's enjoymentu We all had to return, however, that eveningg but this time Wo were treated by the rest of the high school. The next thing that we were e little green at, was the Christmas party. We soon found out that we were to bring a ten cent gift, Most of these presents, of course, included things all the way from sets of dishes to baby bottles and nipples. The highest spot in our Freshmen year was our ones -- act play, given at n contest, in which all four classes part- ifipnteds Yes, we really felt pretty smart when our play was voted the best one y and we proudly rccepted first place. This play, UBy Special Requestu was choosen by the class efflrers. These officers were: Lorraine Meyers, Secretary. Farid Schnider, Prssidentg John Nagel, Vice-President, Denali larson, Treasurer. We had two other officers who bore to title of song leaders: Jean Ross and John Sjobskken. We are looking forward to the promotion of Sophomores. Carl Heinzerlfl L.: Q FRESHMAN ONE ACT PLAY he comedy, NBy Special Requestn, was presented by the Freshmen. Johnny North, David Schneider, and Harold MacMasters, Carl Heinzerling, plan to skip school,and get by without giving their orations.

The principal sends the school nurse, Miss Cunningham, LeDonna Johnson, wto the house to visit Johnny as a matter of routine. Immediately Johnny, donning his mother'e clothes, and Harold, wearing a nightshlrt, become mother and patient.

The scrappy little Adams team put up a great battle,but they came out on the short end of the score, 6-O. The next game was with Elkton High School. This was a six man game. After losing the first game,the Adams team was seek-- jng revenge. They successfully downed the scrappy Elkton team, 21-0. A week later they went to St. Ansgar, Iowa and played fnsther six man game under the flood lights. This was the first sfnfrienee under lights for most of the boys.In this game Corky eeyum also had the misfortune of breaking his Jaw. Adams won the game, 12-O. Adams lost a hard game to Blooming Prairie. Their players were much larger than those from Adams, so we came home holding up the short end of a l5-Omscore. Spring Valley downed Adams by a margin of 15-O. Although we had all the pep and enthusiasm needed, we lacked the dbility to push it over. Grand Meadoy-earned a hard fought game over Adams by a 7-O margin. In this game, Dick Johnson hurt his eye and had to be laken out of the game. On November ll Adams played host to the undefeated LeRoy team. The game was played in the raging snowstorm.LeRoy won 18-On Paul Larson THIRD ROW--Virginia Beck, Donis Osmundson, Kathryn Krebsbach, Marion Smith, Shirley Nagel, Marcelle Peterson, Florence Knutson, Natalie Erohenbrack.

This club has the following aims: the stimulation of more school spirit before and at the basketball games, leading the cheering, and increasing' the student attendance at the games. The officers elected were: president, Marion Smith 3 vice-president, Genevieve Barthelmeg secretary-treasurer, June Otto. ' Among the activities which the Pep Club sponsored since its organization are: a semester all-high school party on January 22, ticket sales for the Athletic Club One-Act plays and Athletic Banquet, candy sales at basketball games, tourna- ment games and at school, bus ride to a LeRoy basketball game, assembly programs before basketball games, and better cheering at all games. With Dorothy Torgerson, Genevieve Barthelme, and Le Donna Johnson as cheerleaders, the club practiced ' cheering and learned the new yells at the meetings. With new methods for increasing the sum in the treasury, there may be sufficient funds to purchase Pep Club uniforms some time next year. Since Basketball is one of our most serious competitive enterprises, that is the place where most of our Pep Club en- thusiasm was evidenced. The members enjoyed these activities and, consequently, the Pep Club, the most recent organization of the Adams High School, is considered a success. We hope this club will continue to grow until the good sportsmanship of the Adamites will be noticeable at all times. Miss Batalden acted as advisor for the Pep Club and ac- companied the bus load to LeRoy to witness that game.

At this time members of clubs of all parts of the state gather and attend classes, take tours,attend plays and movies, and participate in play day. These members go back to thier local clubs with many new ideas to put into practice and also a greater enthusiasm for this work. Dur delegates in the spring of 1940 were: Norman Levasseur, Robert Finbraaten, Shirley Larson, and Virginia Bonnallie. This was the first year we have ever sent a delegate to Farm and Home Week. Monthly meetings are held at the schoolhouse. The aims of these meetings are: perfect attendance, better programs, and short business meetings. Besides these meetings there are monthly meetings of the Junior and Adult Beader's Council of the county for Mr. Hatle and our five Junior leaders. One of our members, Virginia Bonnallie, holds the office of President in this county organization. Our club participated in the Play and Musical Festival, May 14, 1941 at Rose Creek.

When they assembled there were 37 members, They chose as their President, Marvel Madsen, Vice President: Elizabeth G-ilgenbaohg Treasurer, Dorothy Heimerg and Secretary, June Otto. At the meetings we discussed personal problems, etiquette, and dancing. These discussions proved to be very worthwhile because they helped everyone who presented the problem. At Christmas the club enjoyed a Christmas party in the Home Economics room. At a previous meeting each girl had drawn a name of a member of the club and this was the one she was to give her gift to. At the Christmas party each girl then gave her gift to the person whose name she held. Many humorous gifts were received which added to the good time had by everyone.Games were played also, some of which were Chinese Writing and The Man In The Moon. Prizes were given to the winners of these games. At the close of the party the refreshment committee sure prised us with giving every member a drumstick. As each member passed out of the door she was rewarded with a bag of candy and nuts. Everyone had a very enjoyable time. This spring, as usual, the Home Economics Club plans to close the annual meeting with a Weiner roast. The previous pic- nics proved to be very enjoyable and we all look forward to it. W fa?

What fun it was for the first grades to be going to school! And what fun it was for the second graders to show the new ones how to play the toys we have, the sand table, and the library books. Before the first day was over, the first graders had learns ed their own names, and several names of their olassmates.Before the week was up they had began reading in the new Elson Pre- Primer, UWe Look and Seen. Reading was such fun, and it still is. We have read so many books in the first grade, 6 '- '1 1 I -second graders, were surprised how much I ta, wang had been forgotten, and ' we worked hard to rcs ,zslQs5tn1J5rot' IX ,ATT zvygg learn what we had forgotten and also to learn I CA 'm'+1 ll,.,-A.-l, -,lnew things.

Daring the year we added two more orange boxes for shelves in our library. We now have many new books on our shelves 3h6?Cf During the year we said Wgood-byeu to two first graders and welcomed three new playmates. l 3-4 Grades n the fall of 1940 thirty well scrubbed smiling .faces presentee themselves at the thiri end fourth grade room. Several weeks were spent recapturing and renewing knowl- edges acquired the previous year, Not all the work was review. After an intensive study of the American Indians, the third grade made a mural showing the phases of Indian life they had studied. While the third grade was busy visiting people. of other countries, the fourth grade dilligently bent their efforts to- ward disproving the old ginglenmultiplication is vexation, di- vision is as bad.U The fourth grade spent several weeks on their study of early life in Minnesota. In March the parents of these children attended a HMother's Tean at which the boys and girls acted as hosts. Having completed a tour of several countries of Europe and Asia, the weary fourth grade globe trotters returned home to the United States to tour this country. The combining of Play Day and the Annual picnic made it a thing more eagerly anticipated than ever before. The school year came to its close with much exchanging of invitations to Hcome to my house and play,u The children all scatter to their homes to live happy, safe, lives and to again be filled with energy to return to school the next year. Grades 5 and 6 hen.school began in.September, we had fifteen sixth graders and eighteen fifth graders en- rolled. During the year, Marilyn Otto Vivian Dean, and Pat Devney left for new homes. Marcella Jensen and Avis Anderson have entered during the year. We now have nn enrollment of thirty-two pupils. After the study of Norway in the sixth grade the pupils wrote a play and presented a program about life in Norway for their Mothers. They also had a large collection of ar- ticles on display of things made in Norway. At Christmas time, our pupils, with those of the other Elementary grades, presented a pageant for the P.T.A. At one of the spring P.T.A. meetings, our group demon- strated games such as they play for physical education class. In our room we have four members of the band. They are Joyce Anderson, Bernard Hukee, Roger Beck, and Robert Freid.

Grades 7 and B he seventh and eighth grades began the 1940-1941 vschool year in the same roomwfth' ariequal number of students, 17, in each grade and Miss Batalden as their teacher. To start the year the seventh grade had a picnic supper in Huseby's woods with Kathleen Lewison and Ramona Anderson as managers. After the food had disappeared and the bonfire had been put out, the group played games until dark, when they all found their way home. The boys, with Mr. Hatle as instructor, had Industrial Ed- ucation three hours every week. They had a nice collection of magazine racks, blanket boxes, work table boards, stools and games to show for their work. Miss Christiansen taught the girls Home Economics three hours each week. After sewing aprons and caps, the girls vest them while serving breakfasts and lunches to their classmates In the spring our 7th grade boy's kittenball team came at winners in both games played with the Sacred Heart seventh gzaie team.
