Mr. Laing
We proudly present those people who make our school function in a smooth and
logical fashion. Perhaps we accept too casually our school's efficient pattern which moves
in democratic ways toward high educational ideals and broad concepts. Upon reflection,
we realize that their varied and complex activities are indispensable in the intricate educa-
tional scheme. We salute our leaders who have given so much - and asked so little.

Office Staff
Four people for whom there will always be respect and admiration, for they
have aided greatly in the successful management of our school. Our office girls
Barbara and Betty, together with Mrs. Wolfe, the Board Secretary, act as Girl
Fridays' to our executive leaders, and, in addition, take care of the numerous
calls, letters and other details. Miss Bonstetter, our school nurse, is one of the
busiest people we know. She teaches a First Aid course and is responsible for
many excellent health films shown in gym classes. Regular physical examina
tions and vaccinations are a big part of her job as school nurse, and she has
managed all this efficiently and successfully.

Student Council
Functioning as the student's voice in school affairs is that illustrious group,
the Student Council, whose work during the past years has benefited the entire
school. Its projects are many, and require the co-operation of the best of our
student leaders. These boys and girls sold at games, threw parties for which
they furnished the food and entertainment, and, in their own dignified moments,
represented Algona in other towns in the conference. Truly Mrs. Conklin's little
organization has been a boon to A. H. S. She deserves alot of the credit, together
with Marian Zeigler, the Council's mild-mannered president, Harriette Brown, a
very peppy vice-president, the efficiency-plus secretary, Helen Lenz, and treasurer
MaDonna McGuire. The combined efforts of these officers and their sponsors
have made this organization an extremely successful one.

SEN IDRS
Even now, it is hard to realize that this is the end of our four short years of education, recreation,
and a score of memories . . . the various modes of transportation the fellows salvaged from the junk-
yards . . . our star athletes Ray and Opal . . . the first time Bernie was without chewing gum, if
anyone can remember diaper-days . . . Claudia's weird plaid pedal-pushers . . . the select group of
boys who organized a club to rid the town and the surrounding community of cats and other stray
pets . . . the parties we had every time someone was babysitting . . . the agony of waiting for Pete's last
note of the "Swing Yell" . . . janet's ability to promote school spirit in the worst of us . . . the way
Andy slept through everything but basketball practice . . . Nancy's agility on the ivories . . . the
amateur psychiatrists who tried to cure Iris' complexes . Helen's straight "A's" . . . the fun at Career
Day and Veisha . . . and, finally, the solemnity of Commencement and Baccalaureate. A few of us
joked, and a few cried, but mostly we tried to realize that this was the end of four happy years . . .
and silently thanked our parents, teachers and friends for their part in this chapter of our lives.

Class Motto
Tam! far, our goafiin fde 545, our aim a afar . . . H
Class History
On September 6, 1946, we, the Class of 1950, began our impressive march. We shuffled up to
the monumental building which was to become symbolic to all of us in the years to come. Once
inside we were directed here and there and soon were completely lost among several hundred
others, equally lost. This, however, did not hinder our progress. As we look back through the
keyholes at the memories locked inside our hearts we see .... Ooops, wrong keyhole! Taking
another look, we find the Freshman class entering the smallest door of knowledge. Education isn't
the only phase of school life, as we can see: Bill Sparks is searching for a "perfect girl", Bonnie
and Ray are sipping soda from the same straw, and not for ec0nomy's sake, either: The
Poolroom Sextet, Dutton, Meyer, Reding, Hutchison, Anderson and Rielly are getting "haircuts"
via the pinball machine at Barry's: Paul Lindholm and Claudia Pollard, our two young debators,
are using their talents to keep Miss Miller off the subject of mathg our homeroom geniuses, Pete,
Zeke, Dave, Iris and Marilynne, managed to win the Homecoming Window Prize for the class,
which is quite uhusual for the Freshies.
Our scene changes .... the year is 1947, and a larger door stands before us. As usual, we find
Dutton lying across the pinball machine, maybe he's tilted! Ron Hutchings, a new-comer, won
fame if not fortune because of the riotous parties he had in his basement. Dramatics invaded the
class and lured away several promising young actors and actresses, such as Marilynne Miller, Arlene
Johnson, Ted Hutchison, Claudia Pollard, and George Meyer. Another invasion came in the
form of joan "Sunshine" Ballard. The same talent plus a new idea won the class the Homecoming
Prize again.
Time passes .... and a still larger door awaits us, and we gaze upon the records of our
busiest but most successful year. We spent the entire year selling everything but the shirts off
our backs to raise money for the Prom. The sight of our girls in formals and our fellows in suits
banished any doubt as to the success of this expensive but exciting dance. Variety is the spice of
life and to provide this variety, we distributed our various abilties thus: brawn and muscle fTed,
Garry, Ray, joe, Bill, jerry and Arlenj to the field of sports, brains CPhyllis, Helen, Iris and
Irenej to the honor-roll, musical and dramatic talent QPete, Nancy, Marilynne Marian Jack and
Harriettej to the various departments. As usual, we won the Homecoming Prize. If must be
habit-forming.
A year older .... a year wiser, we stand on the threshold of a new life. Another year in
which to gain experience and then we are on our own. Among those experiences we find Mari-
lynne and joan on the modeling runway, Janet in the Queen's crowng Marian winning countless
honors with her postersg Iris and Helen comparing their grades, relatives, and men, and Nancy,
Hutch, and Jack on the stage. Whatever the future brings, these young men and women, to-
gether with their friends, will face it bravely, for four wonderful years of education, recreation, and
memories cannot help but make their life career a successful one. The key to success, together with
our memories, is our gift to the underclassmen.
Class Sponsor
The handiwork of Miss Miller, our sponsor, can be seen in every successful project we have
carried out, and the lesson of good manners she has taught us far exceeds the benefits of any
etiquette book we may ever readg her Christian outlook on life as a whole, and her tireless energy
in helping us build our careers have done more than anything else in making us fit to graduate
and take our place in the world today. She is, in every respect, exactly what our parents and
friends expect in a counselor of young people. We can never reprj' the debt of kindness we owe
this remarkable woman who gives so much and seeks so little.

According to tradition, life as a junior is supposed to be one big struggle fthis is
the year when all the other classes sit around and let you do all the workj and it was!
Selling at the games proved to be more than a test of your school spirit, you had to keep
the popcorn hot the customers satisfied, and, the profits greater than the losses. Pat
I
B h took a rather morbid interest in atomic bombs and was consequently investigated
o n
by the Un-American Committee .... Bob Thompson lent "poundage" to the football
line .... Wendell "Packard" continued to cruise around in his Chevie" .... Ronnie
Leosch still holds the school record for bluffing through class without studying ....
Lee Colburn and Sharon Putz decided there was safety in number and combined forces
. . . . jackie Miller, a future journalist, got in a little practice by winning the "Democ-
racy" contest .... mix these talents and personalities and you have the makings of a
successful class, one that will continue to be at the head of the line.

Sophomore-:s
With two years behind them, these kids are looking forward to the remainder of
their term of education. These two years of experience might be the reason for their
outstanding records, but we rather think it was due to their own particular talents, for
instance, Bill Bryant and jerry Beamish seem to have the makings of real ballplayers
. . . . jack "Smiley" Curtis has proved to be a dead shot with a water pistol, to the
alarm of his studyhall seatmates .... Max Gibson and Shirley Weinter can show the
older girls how when it comes to getting a man .... among the bachelor girls we find
a few who seem destined to desert the ranks, namely MaDonna McGuire, Ruthie Seeger,
and Chloris Skogstrom .... in the event that Algona ever has a girls' basketball team
we nominate Pattie Van Buren who has done such a swell job of guarding tall Mari-
lou I-Ielmers all these years .... other famous people include the actress, Diane Schaapi
Roland Brown, the Roller Drome Attraction: and the Clapsaddle Twins. With material
like this, the Sophomore class is lure to continue on its road to fame at A. H. S.

Freshmen
Always in abundance, these boys and girls nevertheless accomplished quite a lot,
considering their lack of polish and experience. For instance, Don Cook might be a
promising mathematician if he could ever find the right page .... Shirley Kuchen-
reuther is still the only one who can spell her last name right .... Dick Tuttle shows
great ability in music .... Marcia Stillman's collection of Jokes and pranks is growing
rapidly .... Carol Collins has been busy taking roll in Mixed Chorus .... Daryl
Reed and Dennis Orton are still trying to sing tenor, which is like squeezing a grape-
fruit to get orange juice .... Shirley Fitch has been out plugging for her bottled cousin,
Fitch Dandruff Remover .... and the only person who studys in the entire studyhall
is, of course, Jeanette Sorenson. All of these young people have their ideals, so if some
little kid begins to stare at you or follow you around, try to live up to your high call-
ing and serve as an example worth following.

unior Class Play
USEVENTEEN IS TERRIFIC"
This little comedy dealt with the everyday problems of a young teenager and his friends and
family in relation to that all-important event, the school Prom. Lack of funds, a rival, and the usual
amount of misunderstanding makes this play an interesting page out of real life, and the excellent
acting and staging made this one of the best plays of this school year.

"JANUARY THAW"
Another comedy comparing the hustle and bustle of the city life in contrast with the peace and
security of the country. A city family moved to the country in search of antiques, ponys and the
oldest house in Connecticut, and found instead that the house was inhabited, and the struggle for the
control of this house provides the biggest laugh of the season.

North Central Conference Play
"UGLY DUCKLINGN
Directed by Cecily Sherk
This old fairytale, with a few new ideas added, was one of the best ever presented in Algona in a
very long time. The excellent casting and direction, together with the superb acting of these young
people, brought the drama into life with amazing ease. The play was given three times, the last time
being at Iowa City for the Conference Meet, where it received a Superior Rating. Two of the
cast received awards for their superior acting, jack, as the King, and Larry as the Prince. All the time
and energy that went into the production of this play was more than paid for in the excellent success
of this group for young amateurs, many of whom were on the stage for the first time in their lives.
The story itself is one that is difficult to portray with reality, but they accomplished the impossible.
Ron Hutchings provided a great deal of amusement in his role as Chancellor, while Ron Peterson fur-
nished the musical talent for the bugler. Algona is becoming increasingly dramatic, it would seem, to
judge from the abilities of the latest stars of our little community.

Debate
Under the expert guidance of our famous speech teacher, Richard Palmer, the team competed
successfully in the conference and won recognition for the unusual way in which they debated. It
seems that they never knew exactly which side they were going to take, but liked the novelty of flipping
for their choice. Since a debate trip's success is measured by the length of time the squad can spend
on their feet, they hardly ever went to bed. Marilynne won fame for her inimitable rendition of some
of Dorothy Parker's work, while Helen and Claudia prefer to remember the handsome time-keepers,
judges, and the like.
Spirit Cup
This year, for the first time, the Student Council took part in an assembly for the purpose of gain-
ing a little publicity for the Spirit Cup. It is hoped that this can become an annual affair so that the
new students can become acquainted with the purpose, history, and awarding of the cup. The purpose
of the cup is to promote a feeling of competition in extra-curricular activities among the classes. The
cup was originated in 1941 and is awarded on a standardized system, a designated number of points
for each activity ranking first, second, third and fourth. Algona is the only school in the conference
with a merit system of this type, and might well be the forerunner of similar ones, judging from the
approval voiced by our conference neighbors at a recent meeting.

Freshman and Sophomore Members of G. A. A.
G. A. A. and Pep
The original purpose of the Girls' Athletic Association was to "stimulate
interest in wholesome leisure time activities and to promote the ideals of
health and sportsmanship." This club is distinguished by the terrible initia-
tion the old members inflict on the newest additions. Under Miss McGaw's
supervision, the girls organized basketball teams, bowling parties, dances, and
picnics, and even attempted to teach the boys how to dance. The Pep Club
is a part of the group organized to serve as a cheering section for our sports
events, and can be distinguished from the crowd by their white sweatshirts
with the Pep Club emblem on the backs. It is a comparatively new club, but
has increased its membership rapidly, and filled its treasury with the sales of
booklets, balloons, paper hats, and swishers.

F. F. A.
A. H. S. can truly take pride in the gigantic strides toward success its F. F. A. chapter
made during the four short years since its organization. The spirit with which these young
men have pressed ahead reflects the practical philosophy of the youth of today. Before join-
ing, each member must have some productive project, either livestock or crops. The boys
work through the various stages: Greenhand, Chapter Farmer, Iowa Farmer, and American
Farmer. The first two degrees are issued by the local chapter, the third by the state chap-
ter, and the last by the national chapter. Out of 6,000 members, only 123 received Iowa
Farmer degrees this year, and three of these went to Algona boys, Kent Seeley, Dick
Weber, and Rich Mawdsley, which is a very good percentage for a school our size. This
award is rarely given to a boy still in high school, and Rich should be congratulated on
earning his so quickly. The group has given Several parties this year, and even entered a
winning float in the Homecoming parade, so obviously their talents aren't limited to the
field of farming. 45

Librarians
These girls and their supervisor, Miss Wilson, combine efficiency and graciousness in
making available to us the facilities of a well- stocked, modern library. Miss Wilson, in her
capacity as head librarian, is responsible for the selection and ordering of all books and
magazines. Her only assistants are the girls who volunteer to spend their free periods
working in the library. These girls are assigned shelves of books and must keep them
dusted and in order. Periodical inventories are taken to replace old books and to mend the
damaged ones. This year the librarians are working towards a pin and must have at least
750 points to qualify. They earn their points working at the desk, cataloging new books,
cleaning their shelves, and helping with the inventories. As democratic as any other student
body, the group elects its own officers, and these officers have aided greatly in the orderly
operation of our school library.

Hard work and the determination to win brought the Bulldogs
it A t
ou on the top of the Conference heap at the end of one of
their most successful seasons. The rest of the North
Central Conference paid little attention to the talented,
1 ' towering, victory-minded coach, Tony Guzowski, but
after a few savage encounters with the team of his
creation, they experienced an about-face in opin-
ion. Tony, a newcomer, was faced with a
problem universal in small schools, that of
lack of material. Last year's graduation
' had taken most of the first string, and
the out-look for the 1949-50 season
wasn't very bright. Upon his arrival,
Tony threw out the Single-Wing
and introduced the "T" forma-
tion, complete with sleight-

A1gona's sports-minded A -
citizens certainly went all
out for the gridders this year,
and as a result, the team trained
on T-bone steaks.
When interviewed last spring,
Tony was told that things didn't
look too good for the team, but it did- 4
n't take long for him to illustrate that F
his Iowa U. training was just what Algona
needed.
Experts are still wondering what happened, , ,

HOMECOMING QUEEN JANET REDING
Homecoming
The prowess of a determined Bulldog team, plus the encouragement of a school-spirited
community, proved to be superior to both the favored Clarion team and a cold, miserable
wind.
The election of a queen by the students and the huge Pep Rally marked the beginning
of the biggest Fall Festival of all. School was dismissed at 3 p. m. and the classes and organ-
izations participated in a Homecoming Parade.
The game was a series of sensational plays on the part of the Bulldogs and a shocked,
desperate effort to regain prestige for the Cowboys. In the last 4 minutes of play, Tony sent
in his second string, much to the embarrassment ofthe Clarion muscle-men. The crowd
howled while a 119 lb. Freshman, Bill Lampright, smeared a big Clarion Cowboy behind
the line of scrimmage. Their tempers boiling, the Cowboys bowled over the Freshman line
to chalk up their only TD of the night. The crowd's cheers, however, were for the little
fellows who tried so valiantly to hold them back, the little guys like Phil McVeigh, who, in
Tony's own words, "weighed only 90 lbs. soaking wet." A big dance climaxed the end of a
very successful Homecoming for the Bulldogs and their friends.

less, they played excellent ball and finished the season without a single defeat.

A'Capella Choir
Due to the untiring efforts of our new director, Harold Weber, music has assumed new importance
and prestige. His excellent taste in music suited to high school students and his ability to get the very
best each vocalist has to offer have made our vocal concerts the toast of the town. While the boys and
girls work harder than they ever did before, they still find time to indulge in a lot of pranks and local
customs . . . Ted and Pete, who probably intend to become census-takers in the near future, spent one
whole period Counting the holes in the ceiling of the auditorium, total: 191,000,000 . . . Betty Ann and
Harriette are still the only sopranos brave enough to venture above high C without a guide . . . that
little burst of applause isn't for Mr. Weber, the basses just wanted Iris to know she couldn't sneak
in late again . . . we don't know what Virginia Fristedt and Dolores Jensen would do if Helen Lenz
dicln't bring them candy every day . . . Dick Samp is getting fairly deadly with that hat pin of his, just
ask the girls who have to walk in front of him . . . and Nancy and Marilynne are still complaining about
the lack of male tenors, they would much prefer to sing with the girls for a change.

The object of this group, it seems, is to sing exactly opposite from your

almost any type of music from 15th Century arrangements to Cole Porter
numbers. Juniors and Seniors usually enjoy a priority, but there are several
outstanding underclassmen who will be ready to fill in the vacancies next
year and carry on the tradition of this group.

The ever popular barbershop harmony of these four boys has placed them high on the
list of favorite performers. Their animated renditions of favorite folk songs have made
them famous, and are guaranteed to get an encore every time. With Mr. Weber at the
piano, and sometimes in the ranks when One of the favored four is sick, the boys steal the
show. Reading from top to bottom we have first tenor, Dale Collins, an old-timer from way
back: second tenor, Ron Hutchings, who could double as Danny Kaye any timeg baritone,
Ron Peterson, the boy who iSl'l,t there due to Mr. Weber's confusion of namesg and last, but

The Golden Years are here for Concert Band. Mr. Guster's intensive
primary-grade program is beginning to prove that "Start Them Young" pays
off in experienced musicians early in high school.
Rehearsals and concerts, though quite serene and calm, held a few humor-
ous moments. Despite earnest efforts on the part of R. C. G., the trombone
players persisted in "Woodshedding" fa Gusterismj in unguarded moments,
much to the hilarity of the other members. Recalled: Ron rhymes with Moan
and Tromboneg bird imitations by Bill Hutchison during the Viennese Waltzg
Dick Samp and Dave Vaughn putting the "button" on the end of a stirring
march: the loose thread on Claudia's bow cavoting gaily in her face during a
strained encounter with the bass fiddleg "Chuck" running the gauntlet of horn
cases, music stands and musicians to the baritone section when the bus was
late: Larry Wolcott's scarred bassoon, veteran of many years in close prox-
imity with Doc's flailing baton. Ah, yes, we wou1dn't miss band for anything!
