FCREWORD
G. K. C.--G. for Genius
K. for Knight
C. for Catholic
0 Chesterton the genius is the man with a mind. The man whose thoughts written on
paper have added something new and distinctive to English Literature. That mind has
coped with many problems: with intricate devices for untangling Father Brown's
mysterious adventuresi with refreshing and sparkling humor for his essaysf with cool
calculation and reasoning for his philosophical booksf and with a creative ability which
distinguishes him as a poet. That mind has answered many serious questions, that mind
of the man with a G. for genius.
0 Chesterton the knight is the man with a heart. Just as his knight Don John of Austria
with a heart full of confidence and love rode onto the battlefield to defeat the Turks,
so does Chesterton. instead of a Grecian battlefield he has Life, and instead of Turks
he has temptation and the jealous thrusts of inconsequentials who make it difficult
for true genius to thrive. But his heart is the same as the heart which pulsated in Don John
--a heart with love and confidence. Love of God, and of his work, and confidence in
his own ability with 'God's help. He called Don John the last knight of Europe-but
in the twentieth century one knight still lingers and that heart of the man with the K
for knight is Chesterton.
0 Chesterton the Catholic is the man with a soul. A soul with poetry for its music, and
Christ for its song. A soul that purifies his thought and deeds-a soul which ultimately
led him home to God-the soul which is responsible for the C for Catholic in the man,
Gilbert Keith Chesterton.

On the right sits Gilbert Keith Chesterton,
ister of the pen, while above nestled in
e peaceful beauty of the English country-
:le is Top Meadow, the great author's
nme. Here from his stucly in this quiet
iven of rest Chesterton has written the
umortal lines of Lepanto, mighty tale of
aristian victory.
O t SCENIC BEAUTY
When the gradual September blending of greens and golds, reds and rusts occurs
out ol nowhere, rushing surging Aquinites seem to come bubbling with the "ioie
d'etudier" after three months of vacation. The erstwhile daring knights of squirrel-dom
now perch timidly on the leafy branches to view the antics of these strangers. And only
in the late altemoon when some stray students wade home through the leaves-and
when a restless cool breeze forces one to remark, "I guess it's going to get colder,"
do they realize that Aquinas in the autumn is a student's fairyland ....
Q Soft falling snowliakes from a starlit or sunlit slty, it matters not, for winter has come
to Aquinas.
Q The Polar loveliness of the whole spectacle gives birth to many a creative idea, and
literary Aquinas thrives.
I Frost-bitten and often frozen students now dash into school muifed and mittened
to escape the freezing gales. Their mingled applause at basketball, plays, and debates
echoes across the snowy paradise in childish defiance of the cold. From the snugness
of their trees the squirrels realize that winter is in power, and athletic Aquinas is off
to a grand start ....
Dedication
' Without the first faint sparlc ol dawn, the bright lire of day would never
burn, without the twilight's soothing calm, hectic hours would never cease with
night,-without a guiding hand we would fail to cross the laridge that spans
the dangerous stretch from youth to maturity. Without the kindly inspiration
of a man who holds high the torch that lights the way, we would grope un-
warily along the course which leads to success.
' As a shepherd, he must tend his precious floclc of sheep-hring them
safely through the dangers which, lilce wolves, lurlc in the darlc ravines of the
hills-and then he sighs, happy with the lcnowledge that his floclc is sale and
wise enough to graze on richer grounds.
' He stands as a safeguard of the Seven Seas-and watches his boats, one
by one put out on the rough waters. His lcind, understanding ways, plant
confidence and ambition in the young hearts he commands. He strives to
avoid the squalls of the sea that pound and Batter-struggling to destroy, he
steers for the port of "Success," hoping that there, each of his sailors will find
the fulfillment of his dreams.
' To this good shepherd and great captain, our principal, The Reverend
Hilary Leuther, we dedicate this Trumpet.

HIS EXCELLENCY
THE MOST REVEREND ALEXANDER J. McGAVlCK, D. D.
BISHOP OF LA CROSSE
A Knight not coming from a :ea-bounded
Castle ruled by feudal lords, a Knight not
clothed in traditional blue-light armor with
spear and shield for defense, but a Knight
coming from a cross-topped, steepled Castle,
with majestic entrance doors, ruled by God
alone. A Knight in royal-purple garb with a
mitre for a spear, a crozier for his coat of arms,
his ring the accolade of lcnighthood in the
greatest of all courts-the Court of Christ.
A Knight not leading a zealous band of
Crusaders to save the Holy Land-but one
leading a legion of youth to a safer ground,
away from worldly harms. A Knight not seelc-
ing the Holy Cirail-but a Knight building up
Catholic Action in the hearts and minds of the
children of God.
We need not scan horizons nor seas nor
mountains to meetwith this wondrous Knight.
We need' not search in endless volumes of
lcnowledge to see the penning of his name. We
see him often and tallc with him. For this Knight
of the Court of Christ is none other than our
Most Reverend Bishop-his Excellency, the
Most Rev. A. J. McGavick of the Diocese of
La Crosse...
Without whose constant encouragement we
would never have experienced the abiding
blessings and benefits of a Catholic high school.
10
lt is doubtful whether we Aquinas students
t March realized the Icind of a person we
re greeting when we marched from the
tion to the Cathedral to honor our new
uxiliary Bishop. Expecting someone as awe-
,piring as the name His Excellency, the most
:v. Wm. R. Griffin, DD., Auxiliary Bishop
La Crosse suggested, we were very pleasantly
'prised to find a person to whom we could
lc without stuttering. Bishop Griffin has
rved a niche in our hearts-"that time cannot
ce nor a thief purIoin." He has become part
our school lives by his easy friendliness, but
are than that, he is responsible for the vital
gan of Catholic Action, the C. Y. O., which
nds to implant in its members some of the
ueness that pulsates through the auxiliary
shop.
His unabated interest in Aquinas does not
:op with frequent visits to school-rather that
only the beginning. Basketball games seem
be his especial favorite, for almost every tilt
es him in the audience. He was as enthusiastic
:out the National Tournament as any of the
udents, and helped materially to defray the
xpenses.
Yes, Bishop Griffin came in March of '35,
id already another March has passed, and his
:al continues, and our admiration and fondness
creases.

CHRONICLE
The year of '35-'36 was characterized by a number of events which
will remain indelible in the annals of Aquinas history.
Ari unprecedented enrollment of 575 students necessitated the im-
mediate utilization of the new wing which was completed in early
September at the cost of S37,000. Besides providing for a number of
new class rooms, it afforded one large honor study hall and a boys' new
shower room.
Faculty changes resulted in Sister M. Loyola, Civics and Modern
History, Sister M, Matilda, American l-listory and English, Sister M,
Gertrudis, Mechanical Drawing and English, Sister M. Lina, English,
Sister M. Inez, Public Speaking and English, and Sister M. Gervina.
The Reverend .lohn Pritzl, after receiving his Master's Degree from
Washington University, re-joined the faculty to teach Latin and Religion.
Of athletics, basketball was the most prominently lime-lighted
Completing a record smashing season of fifteen victories and three
defeats-one to Campion and two to Central-the Golden Avalanche,
coached by George W. Schneeberger, received a bid to the National
Catholic Tournament at Chicago. Though they didn't bring home the
coveted Cardinal Mundelein trophy, they captured a beautiful cup for
making 14 out of 17 of their free-throws.
Publications waxed mightily in the nine months of school. The News
and Trumpet for 1934-5 won All Catholic honors. The year book
likewise received the All-American rating. The two news editors,
Thomas Dugan and Kathleen Rossiter, and Trumpet editor Albert Funk,
with the help of the combined staffs staged a one-day press conference
November 11. The conference was widely attended, and boasted such
speakers as Father Daniel Lord, S..l., Dorothy Day, and Dean J. L.
O'Sullivan.
Ten Aquinas students attended the National .lournalism Convention
in Milwaukee in early December. As the annual Lenten play fostered
by the staffs, "Barter" was presented under the direction of Fathe
Leuther, March 29, 31, and April 2.
The topic of the day was Isabel Tuomey's trip to California anc
Sequoia National Park as one of the six winners in the contest spon,
sored by M-G-M Studios.
Several students garnered awards in contests during the year: l-larolc
Walsh placed second in the State Art Contest, Fay Gallagher was
presented with the Quill and Scroll Creative writing Key for her excep-
tional skill in headline writing, Mary Skemp being named one of the
winners in the Wisconsin Anti-T B Association contest, broadcastec
her theme on "Tuberculosis, the Foe of Youth" from WTMJ in
Milwaukee. Twelve prizes were won by Art students in a local contest.
P Forensic activities flourished under the tutelage of Reverend .lohn
ritzl.
The Dramatic Club presented "The Ghost Parade" January 17, and
feted the new members to a hair raising initiation, October 23.
Sister M. Dolorette accomplished a great deal with a mixed chorus,
organized a short time after school opened. It was under her direction
that Aquinas' first operetta "The Finding of the King" was presented
December 19.
Mission activities were resumed with the new enthusiasm as the
C. S. M. C. was reorganized on a different basis, Director Father Pritzl,
and presidents Virginia Lemay H9351 and Emil Wakeen 11936, made
the Crusade more alive than any of previous years.
One of the profitable arrangements of the year was the use of the
local radio station WKBH. The studio was frequented by play-announcers
and potential musicians who considered the student broadcast feature
rifun-ir
. . . This winds up another year-but it will have to be unraveled
again so that the scholastic year of 1936-37 may add its piece of string
and knot together the past and future .,..

0 Savage hordes of warriors

Christendom beneath the sign ol the

0 Mohammed,god ol the invad-
ers, is graphically described by Chester-
ton as he loolcs down from the heavens

arts ol the East accompanied the invading

and intriguing mastership, was hurled
against the soul ol Christendom.

annual we are presenting parts ol the
high school course which have had their
origin in the Orient-Science, Mathe-
matics, Printing, from which our school
publications are derived, and Dramatics.

CLASS RESUME
Q Under classmen help to carry on the illustrious traditions
rich were established by their predecessors at Aquinas.
To carry on the name of the school is the goal of all Freshmen.
' all endeavors they seem to be fulfilling this statement. The football
am found many promising boys to be out for future squads. They
To have shown their creative ability by printing a paper concerning
2 Medieval times.
Many Sophomore classmen were among the ranlcs of letter earners
football. The girls brought out their dramatic talents by malcing
19
their debut in the annual Dramatic Club production.
Our able Juniors did their share by feting the outgoing Seniors
who will all be missed immensely. Having moved to Wauwatosa,
Phylis Lemay's office was taken over by Mary Cecile Mink. The
Junior-Senior Prom proved to be both unique and original due to
the efforts of all the Juniors.
Juniors are our next Seniors. So progress rapidly and malce your
last year a profitable one.

TRUMPET"
English poet, essayist, novelist, and world-ltnown critic,
vilbert Keith Chesterton was chosen as the central figure
ound which the 1936 Trumpet theme has been woven.
1r. Chesterton's mighty tale of Christian victory over the
Fidels, "l.epanto," was used as a specific topic for the
evelopment of the theme on the divisional pages. The poem
Lepanto" was divided into three parts and the art staff has
vidly brought the spirit of "l.epanto" to the pages of our
oole through their untiring efforts with pen and brush.

The National Press Convention was another highlight in the
journalistic year. Ten reporters, the largest delegation ever to
be sent by Aquinas, went to Milwaulcee the 5, 6, 7, of
December, for the "thrill of their lives." The group included
the Trumpet editor, Albert Funk, News Editor, Thomas
Dugan, Mary Maloney, Mary Goyette, Kathleen Rossiter,
Katherine Slcemp, Catherene Guillaume, Jessie Newburg,
Mary Slcemp, and Hilary Pavela. Sister M. Charitina and

The inestimable value of Father Leuther is truly realized as
we see the evidence of his handiworlf spread throughout these

entirely by our principal.
The staff wishes to express deep appreciation to
Mr. C. J. Brown of the Greene Engraving Company for his in-
valuable assistance and aid in planning many details of this

"The fljcipe was in his chapel hefore day or battle broke,

The lmhlen room in manfs house where God sits all
the year,
Tihe secret wimlou' whence the wrwld looks small and
Very dear,"
0 Chesterton's symbolization of
the Pope wrapped in fervent prayer as
his legions marched forth to battle is an
illustration ol a profound Christian iaith.
An inspiration to the fighting Crusaders
was the figure of Christ's Vicar interced-
ing to God for victory.
0 Religion has always been the
primary factor in education at Aquinas.
The strength ol religion and faith is of
vital importance to the world today.
A faith in God and in Humanity is
needed for the salvation of the world
from corruption, war, and even a de-
struction ol civilization.
I It is with a feeling of furthering
the cause ol religion at Aquinas that we
dedicate the second section of the an-
nual to religious activities of the school.

choristers attired in cassocIc and surplice, and bIue and gold capes, moved up the center
aisIe with candIes IIicIcering IiI4e stars in the semi-darIcness. The haunting melodies oi
"LuIIabye on Christmas Eve," and "WassaI Song" sung by the mixed chorus, carried
on the spirit of the birth of Jesus. This was but the preIude to the operetta "The Finding
of the King" which was given on Thursday, December 19.
The operetta aiforded an exceIIent opportunity Ior effective stage settings, costumes,
choral worIc, and acting. The scene was an inn where a miserIy Iceeper was confronted

"THE CAST"
Excelsis Deo," the birth ol the Saviour was announced. During the Nativity scene in
the stable the characters made their adoration and offerings. Meanwhile, the greedy
lnnl4eeper's heart underwent a change, and he, too, prohfered a gift.
The herald was robed in a green gown trimmed in gold lace. This part was sung by
Mary Higgins. The shepherds, dressed in typical Judean style, were portrayed by
John Kampschroer, Hilary Pavela, Philip Poehling, and Clarence Weiss. The angels in
the tableaux who wore gowns of white, lavender, and gold were Helen Deitelhoff,
Margaret Ryan, Grace Schubert, and Kathleen Rossiter. The Blessed Virgin wore a blue
robe and white veil. This part was talcen by Elizabeth Weissenberger. l.eRoyJustinger,
as Joseph, was dressed in a tan mantle and purple cloak. Melchior, Balthazar, and
Caspar, played by Edward Bartl, Emil Wakeen, and Carl Dockendorlt respectively,
wore rich robes of red, purple, and green with turbans and sandles of corresponding
hues. The train of attendants and gift-bearers included Norman Meir, Robert Eagen,
Gerald Moriarity, Richard Rossiter, and Edward Giroux.
Publicity for the play was handled by Bernard Noell4e. Broadcasts were given daily
over WKBH concerning the play. Bernard Noeiice spolce on general points of interest.
Julius Rottman built his broadcast around the chapter on Christmas from Alfred Noyes
"The Unlcnown God." Faye Gallagher traced the history of "Silent Night" in her
broadcast and Virginia Lemay spoke on the "True Meaning ol Christmas." The "History
of the Crib" was the topic of Alice Banasiics broadcast.

CHRISTMAS
OPERETTAH
"BARTER"
Q Aquinas Publications annual Lenten play, "Barter," was presented
forthe final time on April 2, under the direction ofthe Rev, Hilary A.
Leuther.
Dazzling costumes and effective scenery, worthy ol a Cecil De Mille
cinema, were two of the many things which made "Barter" spectacular-
The harmonious blending of golds, purples, and reds in the thrilling
colors of tribal gowns of Jobal, the insignia of the twelve tribes ol Juda,
the military costumes of Phanuel and Varrus, the lovely gowns which
outfitted Miriam and Rhea .... Words fail in describing the gorgeous
eltect of the real thing.
The scenery comingled with the costumes with a distinctiveness which
has seldom been achieved at Aquinas,
ln connection with the producing of "Barter," the important taslc of
publicity was competently handled by Mary Maloney who supervised
the broadcasting ol advance notices for the Play over Radio Station
WKBH.
Through the co-operation of the local broadcasting station the themes,
consisting of interesting local sidelights and bits of news about the music,
costumes, tickets, and staging, as well as the plot and characters, were
heard over the air every morning at eleven o'cloclc.
Those who participated include: Leah Higgins, Mary Cecile Mink,
Robert Guentner, Norman Meir, Thomas McNamara, Ruth Krismer,
Julius Rottman, Sterlie Taylor, Jessie Newburg, Lucille Klein, Eileen
Miller, Viola Young, Mary Maloney, and Mary Slremp.

"Barter," the prize-winning Biblical play of the Drama League-
vngmans Green Playwriting Contest for 1928, written by the Rev.
ban Nagle, O. P., was the choice of Aquinas publications for the
nual Lenten play.
This is the fourth consecutive year a religious drama is sponsored by
2 group. ln 1933 "Vivo Cristo Rey" was given, in 1934, the "Sacred
ysteries" and in 1935, the "Phantasy of the Passion."
Father Nagle, with whom an interview appears in the Queen's Work
January, 1936, is the leading clerical figure in the theatrical world.
Viola Young executed the ticket sales most ably and assured the
ancial success of "Barter."
Several people and organizations contributed generously to the
tual production.
Sister M. Wilhemette cared for the ticket contest, and the home rooms.
Staging was in charge of Sister M. Ancilla.
41
The Art Classes under the direction of Sister M. Gervina made posters
for publicity purpose and a group of Art students painted several scenes
for the play.
Costuming was supervised by Sister M. Teresina.
The Loretto Club, Doerflingefs, and Barron's lent properties.
The Aquinas orchestra, under the baton of Sister M. Dolorette,
furnished the between-acts music.
The candles and candle sticks came from St. Wenceslaus.
William Nelson furnished the pillars for the stage.
The Larkin brothers and Sidonie Guillaume gave their time for all
three performances for make-up.
With the co-operation of all concerned including especially the cast,
"Barter" can be recorded in Aquinas history as a true success.
"BARTER"
CATHOLIC STUDENT
MISSION CRUSADE
The reIigious work of Aquinas students can be readiIy
recognized in the Cathoiic Student Mission Crusade. Numer-
ous projects were accomplished by the Aquinas Students
during the course of the year. Visits to the chapel, spirituaI
communions, and frequent rosaries comprise the good works
performed during the course of the year. Students from each
home room urged and encouraged the student body in their
spiritual practices. Through the efforts of these home room
agents and the officers, a great change has taken pIace,
students are continuaIIy making trips to the chapel in asking
for help or giving thanks for favors aIready granted.
Father PritzI's splendid interest and efforts did much to
make this organization a success. A keen interest was shown
by the officers: Virginia Lemay, president- a February
graduate who was Iater replaced by Emil Wakeen, Alice
Jankowski, secretary, and John Rossiter, treasurer.
During the Christmas season, each home room was busiIy
engaged in organizing a box of supplies consisting of gauze,
tape, wash cIoths, and cooI ade drinks, to send to the mission-
aries in China.
The Catholic Worker, New York publication edited by
Dorothy Day, who visited Aquinas Iast faII, has cIothed many
of its visitors among the poor with the contents of two boxes
sent from Aquinas.
The "Cresto Ray" Mission of El Paso, Texas, reports that
their seven hundred Mexican chiIdren had a happy Christmas
because of the toys sent by Aquinas and other friends.
THE REV. JOHN PRITZL
Director of C. S. M. C.
Students generousiy contributed to these boxes and sup-
pIied funds for the postage which amounted to quite a Iarge
sum.
During Lent mite boxes were placed in each home room
and a generous contribution sent to the Catholic University
in Peking, China.
Typewritten sheets of religious practices were posted in
the home rooms and accurate accounts of visits to the chapel,
communions, and rosaries were kept. These are a few of the
ways in which the C. S. M. C. members have been kept
occupied throughout the season. At the monthly meetings,
which were usuaIIy heId in the evenings, entertainment was
furnished by the students in pIays and speeches. Interesting
information concerning the various countries, which were
suffering for their religion, was given in these speeches by
the students.

wound up another year oi puffing and pounding as they
marched through the streets oi lomah on May Q at the annuai
district band tournament. Mr. D. W. Nichols, veteran band
master, led the band on to Class D honors this year and added
one more linl4 in the chain oi years in which the Aquinas
band has been a iarniliar sight at the band tournaments.
lntense drilling and practicing while on the march aided in
maicing the band one of the snappiest marching units at the
tournament. The lorty members oi the band presented a
splendid appearance as they marched through lomah with
the Blues and Goids of their uniforms glittering.
in addition to competing in the regular band contests
several loand members entered the solo divisions.
The band garnered a second piace in Class D at the district
band meet in lomah on May 2. As a marching unit the
Aquinas band was rated as being second best oi all bands
entered in the parade at the tournament.
Several soloists of the band secured placements in their
respective divisions. Among our soloists were lrvin Bergh who
was awarded second place on the Sousaphone, Francis Zahn
who achieved second in the saxaphone division, Marie
Rudolph with third place on the baritone and Jaclc Schoiler
second place in the trombone division.

chance" to demonstrate their managerial abilities since different members
were elected every week to Fill the presiding positions of president,

got an opportunity to exercise that fundamental impulse to dominate
the occasion, besides having a great deal of fun, and incidentally, absorb
much of intellectual interest about history in a painless fashion.

NEGATIVE TEAM-Lelt to right: lrvin Bergh, Robert Eagan, Albert Funk, and Richard Crowley.
A season of success was enjoyed by the Aquinas Debating' Teams.
Guided forcefully by the well-versed veteran of debating, the Rev.
John J. Pritzl, the debate circle emerged remarkably well. Father Pritzl,
returning from his studies at the Catholic University of Washington D.C.,
where he was actively interested in the art of expostulation, resumed the
reins of the debate team which he had surrendered to the Rev. Lester W.
Seemann during the year of his absence in Washington, D.C.
The question for discussion, "Resolved: That the several states should
enact legislation providing for a system of complete medical service
available to all citizens at public expense," was debated by high schools
and colleges throughout the nation, and is being discussed vehemently
by prominent members of the medical profession.
The members of the debate squads were, on the Affirmative: Cornelius
Waters, Norman Meir, and Emil Wakeen with John Rossiter alternate,
the Negative: Robert Eagan, Irvin Bergh, and Albert Funk with Richard
Crowley alternate. The question was divided into three phases, namely,
desirability, necessity, and practicability, each of these phases was con-
structed by a debater on either team, pro and con.
On February 5, the affirmative team motored to Tomah to engage in a
non-decision debate. The following Sunday the negative visited the
Holcah Study Club Debate Team in a non-decision debate. February 17
saw the Aquinas negative at Eau Claire capturing a 2-1 count over the
Eau Claire affirmative.
The Aquinas affirmative again swung into action on February 18, but
was repulsed by the Arcadian negative 2-1. Not dismayed, the affirma-
tive rallied triumphantly over Eau Claire to take a 3-O decision on Feb-
ruary 20. February 24 Viroqua tangled with the affirmative there in a
no-count argument. March 3, Viroqua came to meet the negative in a
non-decision debate.
69
The most heated debates of the season were those between the two
Aquinas teams. The Aquinas affirmative team defeated their fellow
schoolmen, the Aquinas negative team, in a strenuous argument at
Cashton, as guests of the Rev. Joseph Kundinger, on March 17. A
luncheon, prepared in St. Patrick's color and designs, was served to the
debators following the debate. Strengthened by their first victory the
affirmative again defeated the negative at St. Rose Convent.
Four lettermen of last year's debating team, Albert Funk, a former
debator of Father Pritzl's teams, lrvin Bergh, Robert Eagan and Emil
Walaeen, returned to hold a position this year.

Well the typing class doesn't talce that literally exactly, but
they do write, that is, type incessantly and continually in
their ceaseless pursuit ol perfection. Starting with the monot-
ony ol "a, s, d, l, g," they gradually but painstalcingly
advance to writing or typing voluminous business letters with
the professional air of a secretary. You'll find it's a lot ol lun
to learn to type at the rate ol 65 words a minute for is it 100?J,
besides greatly facilitating the neatness ol your taslfs in other
subjects. . . And if you talce shorthand, youlll possess more
power. But to become more serious, alter these would-be
elliciency experts master their brief-forms they finally acquire
the technique necessary to talce 120-140 words a minute in
dictation, and what's more, transcribe these notes baclc, into
distinguishable English. . . The most diilicult of the commercial
subjects by lar is boolclceeping. One has to be accurate,
mathematically agile, and alert in order to become a master
accountant and these requisites are very ably demonstrated
in Sister M. Ancillals various classes. Each boolclceeper has to
be the owner ol a miniature business establishment Cllwentieth
Century type-lceeping modern, so to spealcl.
Those who talce their worlc seriously usually find an attrac-
tive position in lile alter graduation, lor the stenographer we
always have with us-in this highly commercialized world.

The magic carpet of time carries us over our vast country,
and even to the mysterious lands oi bygone days in the
Civics and History classes.
Those fortunate enough to have American l'listory on
their daily program, found themselves in the midst oi an
interesting study of the progress oi our country. Every
event from the discovery of America by Columbus to
present day situations was studied thoroughly. Sister M.
Matilda, who directs this class, believes that variety is the
spice of life, and so, varies her class procedure with oral
reports, projects and open discussions. By talcing a course
in American l-listory, and by studying the lives and worlcs
of America's great men, one is sure to mold for himself
a better and richer character for the future.
Equally as interesting as the above mentioned was the
Modern l'listory class, under the direction ol Sister M.
l.oyola. Besides a complete study oi the governments-
past, present, and future-this course included occasional
open-forum discussion, oral current reports, and exciting
historical debates.
ln the Civics classes, also under the tutelage of Sister
M. l.oyoia the essentials of Modern governmental pro-
cedure were taught in a most up-to-date, current manner.
Oral reports on news topics also proved appreciative in
this class, and added the necessary variation.
Though anything but modern, the ancient history class
proved anything but dull, for if there is any class in the
school that has variety, it is this. Under Sister M. Edna's
guidance, the students climbed aboard the text bool4s ol
time and space, and were whisked through the centuries,
into the days oi Egypt, Greece, and Rome, where several
interviews with such men as King lut, Socrates, Caesar, and
other notables, were made. Several projects were made,
and oral reports given, all of which added variety, and
made the class more interesting.

JOURNALISM CONFERENCE
0 On November 11, 1935, Aquinas sponsored its second annual
holastic Journalism Conference. Twenty-three schools comprising over
JO delegates from Wisconsin, Minnesota, and parts of lowa, were
presented. Katherine Skemp, a senior, and Managing Editor of the
quinas News, was appointed General Chairman with many committees
'der her supervision.
The conference opened with a general assembly during which His
:cellency the Most Rev. Alexander J. McGavick, D.D., spoke. Shortly
:er this the group broke up into smaller round tables presided over
f various speakers.
Among the principal speakers was the Reverend Daniel A. Lord, S.J.,
'ro is Editor of the Oueen's Work, and author of many books and
well-known pamphlets on youth and their problems. Father Lord, who
was the guest of honor, delighted Aquinas students, by his informal
friendly manner.
Another speaker at the conference who is much in the public eye,
was Dorothy Day, editor of the Catholic Worker and opponent of
Communism in New York. Miss Day was formerly a communist, but
entered the Church and now helps the Worker by other methods than
Communism.
Dean J. L. O'Sullivan, head of the Marquette University College of
Journalism at Milwaukee, David Host, Editor of the "Catholic School
Editor," and Joseph Kurth, former Notre Dame football All-American,
contributed to the round-table discussions at the conferences.

The Aquinas High School football team, with its material
much lighter and less experienced than last season, tied one
game and lost seven games although under the supervision of
the former All-American tackle from Notre Dame, Joseph
Kurth, who was chosen as head football coach. Dr. John Fay,
from Marquette acted as his assistant and aided Kurth in teach-
ing the players the Notre Dame system.
The first drill brought out sixty-six men out of which the
1935 football squad was to be molded.
Fighting it out between the twenty yard marlcers for the
entire game, the Aquinas Golden Avalanche and the visiting
Arcadia eleven formally opened the annual grid warfare for Coach Joseph Kurth and manager Bob Funk: combining mental efforts to
formulate strategic football tactics.
both' teams by battling to a scoreless tie on September '21.
Aquinas threatened in the first quarter but the goal line dash
ended after two short flings were muffed by an over-
enthusiastic receiver.
Numerous penalties hurt the offensive chances of the Men
of Kurth at crucial moments. Over one hundred yards were
subtracted from the yardage of Aquinas by penalties, which
toolc the heart out of the players.
With a blazing aerial attaclc Logan l'ligh's football team
exhibited nimble-fingered ends and an improved line to
defeat Aquinas by a 34 to 0 score before 2,000 fans on the
floodlighted Logan field. The Aquinas team exhibited
flashy play spasmodically. Both reams garnered the same
number of first downs in the initial half but Logan made a :oak impansnn pam in developing the '35 mm.

beautiful 52 yard sprint by Dixon, after shooting off between end and tackle,
Logan scored its first touchdown. The place kick was wide. Logan again
marched down the field but the Aquinas line withstood the charges of the
mighty warriors in Red. and White on the 14 yard stripe.
With a revamped backfield, Aquinas then garnered two first downs before
the period terminated. Hackner ripped off several nice gains before Logan
gained possession of the ball near the middle of the field. ln the second
quarter Severson flipped a short pass to Knutson for the second touchdown and
Gilbertson place kicked for the extra point. A sleeper pass paved the way
for the next touchdown and brought the ball to the 2-yard stripe, where Dixon
plunged over. Gilbertson's place kick was good.
Logan continued its aerial barrage by flinging passes to either Gilbertson
or Hunter. When Aquinas had regained possession of the ball, Naegle dropped
back to punt. The pass from center sailed high over his head and into the end
zone for a safety.
Both teams passed, Logan-confidently, Aquinas--hopefully.. ln the earlier
part of the final stanza, Severson of Logan crashed over for another touchdown.
Red Olson passed to Stangle to the Aquinas 1-yard line and Dixon plunged
over. ln the closing 50 seconds Aquinas made its only real threat by driving
the Logan team to the 15-yard line. George Naegle punted and passed to
lead the Aquinas gridmen. Rich and Paul Mclntyre and .lim l'la'ckner showed
speed in the backfield, but the light and inexperienced line was unable to

Aquinas eleven as McDonell retaliated on slip-ups to win 19 to 6. This
victory was the first that a McDonell team has been able to register in the
history ol Football relations between the two schools.
Two intercepted passes and a blocked punt accounted lor McDonell's score.
Connell, McDonell's roving center, scored two ol the three touchdowns and
figured in the third. Connell intercepted a short Aquinas pass and raced 47
yards to the goal in the third period. Connell scored again in the lourth quarter
when he blocked an Aquinas punt and scampered the remaining eight yards
to score. Connell intercepted another pass and was downed on the Aquinas

ball on the 5-yard stripe, galloped around end, and eluded the Aquinas
secondary to run ninety-five yards lor their only counter in the intial quarter.

On the Winona athletic parlc gridiron, the Cotter High football team avenged
its former defeat at the hands of Aquinas by passing themselves to the top of a

played superiority in play and counted twice, once in the firstquarterandthe
second time in the third stanza.

to no advantage.

victory over the Aquinas High football forces on November Q. This
victory made the homecoming complete for the Madison Academy.
ln the initial quarter the Golden Avalanche fumbled and an Edgewood
player recovered. This set the stage for the touchdown as Maloney
whisked a pass to Crimmins for the counter.
Late in the second quarter, Aquinas started a good line march led by
Ambrose "Amy" Coughlin but the whistle sounding the intermission,
halted the drive. Jim l-laclcner, a sophomore, trampled the turf for a few
long gains, but the hard slicing taclcles broke through the stubborn
Aquinas line to brealc up many plays which otherwise would have been
good for short gains. The heavier Edgewood line proved superior to the
light Aquinas line because of weight and experience advantages.
ln the final halt, the Golden Avalanche resorted to an aerial attaclc
in an attempt to brealc through the cogent defense of the Academy.
Many were adequately covered and Ponte, Edgewood baclc-fielder,
made himself outstanding by intercepting several of the passes. Don
Verthein, all city center, Harold Padeslcy, and Kenny Opitz were the
sparlcs in the Aquinas attack.
The Golden Avalanche ended its football season by losing to the
impressive and powerful Campion preps on the Prairie du Chien field by
the decisive score of 33 to O. With a siashing and non-stopping attaclc,
Campion scored eariy in the first quarter on a line play. The second team
of Campion was inserted following the first score and before the half had
ended, two more touchdowns were added up in the Campion scoring
coiumn. The Golden Clads held the Campion eleven on even terms in
the third quarter with Paul Mclntvre giving a very good exhibition on
taclcling.
Late in the fourth stanza Campion sent in its first team which quiclcly
accounted for two more touchdowns, one from an intercepted pass and
the other from a forward toss. Aquinas was outweighed and constantly
outplayed by the experienced Campion teams.
The superb blocking of the Campion Red Knites made way for many
long runs and also held the Aquinas baclcs to small gains. Paul Mclntyre,
in the fullbaclc berth, and halfbaclc George Naegle were the yard gainers
for Aquinas when they were able to penetrate the Campion defense.

lhe Golden Avalanche had the pleasure of being one of 32 Catholic High
rools participating in the Thirteenth Annual National Catholic Basketball
urnament held in Loyola gymnasium, Chicago, March 18-22, 1936. With a
orful array of basketball, the all-senior quintet downed the St. Paul team from
:ksonville, 43-26. Rich Nekola, playing a clever game in the forward post,
sped in 13 points to lead the men of Schneeberger in scoring. Verthein and

ty, leff forward, found the rim with uncanny ability for 17 points. Nekola, acting
:tain for Aquinas, led his mates with 10 points. For averaging most free throws
r game in tournament play, Aquinas was awarded a silver cup with a figure of a
i er, tipping in a shot, mounted on the top. Aquinas made 14 of 17 free throws.
After lagging in the first quarter, the Golden Avalanche courtmasters in the
ening game with the Alumni, rallied and was victorious by a 25-12 score. The
ening game was pla ed on December 2 before a large crowd. Rich Nekola and
'ish Derouin breezedthe netting to lead their teammates. Aquinas overcame a 2
int lead and smothered the tiring offensive advances of the graduates. Joe
rrouin, former Aquinas push-shot artist, led the losers with 7 points. Rich Nekola,
:lden Clad veteran, paced the men of Schneeberger with 8 points followed by
'ish Derouin, who hit the rim for 3 field goals.
Rallying to pleasing cheers of Aquinas fans, the Golden Avalanche cagers twice
:sed the gap between Arcadia and Aquinas scores. ln a scoring flurry they edged
ay from Coach Bill Cashen's Arcadia gang to win 25-21, December 6. Oppor-
ie baskets by Swish Derouin and Don Verthein late in the game enabled
quinas to emerge winner in a see-saw battle. At the half Aquinas led 11-7 but
rcadia swished in 9. points before Aquinas clicked. Herbie Bahr, stellar center,
:ke up numerous plays to head his teammates in defense work. Derouin, injured
second quarter, came back in the last half to loop in 10 points. Kabatt, Arcaclia's
r right forward, jingled the netting for 10 points.
Aquinas continued its winning streak, downing St. John's of Rochester 15-1.0.
day the 13th meant little to the Golden-Clads, who upset the Rochester team in
airtight battle on St. John's court December 13. Aquinas managed to gain an
rly 12-7 margin as the first quarter terminated. Joe Simones, who sent in high,
sy net-flickers, collaborated with Don Verthein to receive scoring honors. Excep-
rnally stron impenetrable defenses resulted in failure of either team to garner a
ge score. Tire two quintets battled on even terms in the last two quarters. Don
erthein and Joe Simones were standouts for Aquinas, while Makin collected 4
rints to head the losers.
ln the fourth game the Golden-Clads sauntered over the Red and White cagers of
rgan with a 37-23 scoreion December 20, launching a punishing offense in the
at half that left the Redmen almost scoreless. Aquinas led at the half 16-3. The
an of Harget, Logan mentor, staged a stalwart rally in the third quarter that
alked up 12 points. Meanwhile Aquinas had made enough points to maintain a
ie lead. Rich "Wizard" Nekola, diminutive dark-skinned forward, played a
uling floor game to lead the Golden-Clads in scoring and garner the scoring
rnors. This markzd the first time an Aquinas team scored a victory over Logan.
The Aquinas cagers parried and then thrust aside the offensive thrust of one of the
ongest Alumni teams presented on the Aquinas floor. The final was 15-13 in
for of the Golden Avalanche. The tilt was staged on January 2. The graduates

powerful defenses of Campion, the Golden Ava-
che exhibited an exceptional display of basketball
down the Campion Academy 25-13, January 25.
: Aquinas cagers held Campion scoreless for 21
tutes, starting in the middle of the first quarter to the
il period. Four buckets were chalked up by
ruinas men in less than one minute in the third period.
'lerby Bahr, Aquinas center, chalked up 8 points to
ng about the downfall of Prairie du Chien Academy.
n Verthein followed with 6 while Derouin and
kola looped in 5 and 4 respectively. Hendricks,
wart center, did the heavy scoring for Campion by
king 6 points while Moriarity, Quinlan, and
zman garnered but 'Z apiece. Aquinas led throughout
l at no time was the outcome in doubt.
The offense of Aquinas, which penetrated defenses
Arcadia, Rochester, Logan Eau Claire, and
npion, was held almost powerless by the powerful
itral scoring machine, Aquinas lost 33-13 on
uary 31. Ferdinand Pitz, started scoring for Central
h a pivot shot which was quickly followed with
ctacular shots by his teammates. At the termination
the first quarter the Golden Avalanche lagged by a
point margin. The Red and Blacks increased its
'gin by 1 point in the second quarter. Central led

scorer of La Crosse and all-city perienced guard who will be back
forward, next year.
12-.5 Mark Sutton's cagers ran wild in the third stanza
and scored 14 points while Aquinas was held to 4.
Derouin and Verthein were high for Aquinas with 5
points each.
With seconds remaining of the Eau Claire-Aquinas
game, Rich Nekola poised for an instant and let fly a
high looping shot from three-fifths the length of the
floor to clinch an airtight battle, which ended in a 34-32
score in favor of Aquinas February 7. Sensational play-
ing of "Smiling Joe" Simones, who took on scoring
duties which usually fell to Swish Derouin, accounted
for 12 points. Don Verthein followed with 10 points.
Play of Albrecht and Toner, center and guard, respec-
tively, was especially commendable for the losers.
By winning this ninth game, Aquinas demonstrated
it had national tournament calibre. The St. Pat's-Aquinas
tilt took place on February 18 on the Aquinas floor.
Aquinas led 16-15 at the half. Verthein did the most
scoring for Aquinas in this half.
Aquinas was burned in effigy by Campion students
before the return trip with the downstaters. Banners,
signs, and clever sayings posted in the corridors made
known to all the intense rivalry created by interest in

gaining a bid to the National Catholic Tournament. By striking hard and fast at the
offset, Campion Red Knights avenged an earlier defeat by winning 29-13. All
Lhrough the game "On to the National" resouncled throughout the gym. Campion
gained an 8-4 lead in the first quarter and doubled its score. As the half terminated
Aquinas was behind, 16-7. Bob Brenner, who filled the position of the ill Swish
Derouin, captured the scoring honors for Aquinas by sinking 5 points. Joe Simones
and Jerome Wiltinger draped the nets for 3 points apiece. Moriarity, Campion
orward, connected with 10 points to be high scorer for the evening.
ln the first overtime period of the season, Aquinas jumped from behind to
rhatter Arcadia's hopes of defeating Aquinas in the return game. With the score
ied 17 all at the end of the regular game, timely field goals by Don Verthein and
iob Brenner clinched a 21-18 victory for Aquinas. The Ciolden-Clads faced a 9-2
lisadvantage at the start of the second half but led by Rich Nekola the Aquinas
:agers quickly tied the score. From then on the lead changed hands numerous
imes until the end of the game saw the score knotted at 17-17. Timely baskets
ny Verthein and Brenner gave Aquinas a 21-18 victory. Nekola led the Aquinas
coring with 10 points. Sabotta was outstanding for Arcadia.
The Golden Avalanche ran wild against Viroqua High,1936titleholder of the
iouth Central conference, and won 48-29 in a return game on the Aquinas court
Jn February 29. Viroqua dominated the play for the first four minutes and garnered
r 7-3 intermission lead. ln the second period Aquinas started clicking. Rich
Nlekola found the netting for 10 counters, Bob Brenner 7, Don Verthein 4, Bahr 3,
and Padeslcy 2, before Alf Walby, Viroqua star center, was able to hit the rim.
'he half ended with Aquinas on the sunny side of a 31-9 score. Both teams
lternated in breezing the netting during the third quarter. After Bahr and Verthein
eft the game on fouls, Coach Schneeberger began inserting reserves. With the
logan, "On to the National," forever on their minds the Aquinas continued their
race-setting career by ramming up the count. The game was a continual march
rom one free throw line to the other as a total of 50 fouls were called.
Swish Derouin, all-city guard, regained his "court legs" and slipped in 11
ioints in the last half to give Aquinas one of its hardest earned victories over the
:ourt warriors of Logan on March 6 by a 23-17 score. Logan exhibited stubborn
:pposition and in the early stages appeared to have the edge. Logan maintained a
light lead in the first quarter and increased it to 8-5 at the half. Then Derouin,
vith magic in his "shooting eye," started the baclxboard bombardment. ln short
:rder long looping shots were flung at the baskets with Derouin doing the heavy
coring. Dixon and Peterson were high scorers for Logan while Derouin, with 11
ioints, and Rich Nel-cola, with 6, led the Aquinites. '
Friday the 13th seemed to hold unusual attraction for St. John's and Aquinas'
eams for by a queer coincidence the teams met for the secondrtime during the
eason on Friday the 13th. The tournament-bound cagers rammed up a 31-18
ount against Rochester to close one of the most successful basketball seasons in
he athletic history of Aquinas. l-lerby Bahr led the Aquinas scoring with 10
ioints and opened the net rampage with a field goal and one Scotch shot. At the
ralf the Golden-Clads led 13-6. Rich Nekola, Swish Derouin, and Herby Bahr
inited efforts to bring home the final victory. Francis Macken, right forward of
it. John's, opened the scoring in the second half on a long try but netting bombard-
'rents by Derouin, Bahr, Verthein, and Nekola gave Aquinas a 12 point lead.
rtanding near the center ring, "Smiling Joe" Simones tickled the twine with a
ieautiful shot. Breezers by Bahr, Simones, and Nekola and gift shot by Bahr
oncluded the Aquinas scoring.
ln choosing the all-city basketball team, the five first team members placed on
se first and second teams. Rich Nekola, diminutive dark-skinned senior, was
hosen as all-city forward while Herman "Swish" Derouin took over the guard
-ost on the all-city team. Herby Bahr, center, Joe "Sigh" Simones, guard, and
Jon Verthein, forward, were given posts on the second team. Bob Brenner was
iven honorable mention.

WASTE-PAPER
BASKETS
It was once said that the writer for poetl
is the one who can write of things near to
him without having to look far away for
an inspiration. So I have written on the
subject "Waste-baskets."
Waste-paper baskets! Look how they
shine and reflect the sun's rays Cspecially
on 27" below zero morningslj. How they
brighten up the entire room with their
olive-green faces and open heads, always
willing to accept "Iearnings," discarded
papers, buttons, rags, assorted banana,
orange, and occasionally, lemon peelings
with apple cores as a touch of added
variety.
Also soot, dirt, old books, caps, shoes,
gloves flatter three regainedl, gum, candy
wrappers, ice cream cones, candy sticks,
paper "model-air planes," discarded
"Dangerous Dan MaGrew" magazines,
yellow slips Calso tardy and absence
slipsl, chewed up pencils, peanut shells,
envelopes, letters, pamphlets, a variety
of sarcastic, important, and mediocre
notes, jelley, scraps of meat, burned up
pieces of paper, charcoal, typewriter
ribbons, and other articles.
Consider a school room without a waste
basket of his first cousin, the desk. What
would a room like that be like? Wading
through the aforementioned maze of
articles would hardly be appealing to the
eye, nose, mouth, or digestion. Hence
we should be very thankful for said, article
and never kick it during moments of dis-
gust, an er or, on the other hand, happi-
ness. Ozefl, perhaps once or twice to
relieve yourself of the excess energyl.
Then we should always keep in training
in order that we may be able to deposit
a 4375, exam in the basket from the sixth
seat in the third row, allowing a bank off
Claudius Amorphous AppingaIe's slight-
Iy curved head and existing weather
cohditions. Lastly, we can always use the
basket as a chair or stool. Before putting
this plan into operation it is a good policy
to gauge your weight accordingly.

Our Basketball First Team
By JOHN OUINN fFrosh Star,
Babe Derouin is a mighty lad
His eye for baskets is amazing
The few shots that he misses are sad
But of the rest-his praises we are singing.
Our center and also forward, Herbie Bahr,
Is of the "calm, cool, and collected" type.
His push and hook shots are the teams
reward
For working together and showing fight.
Rich Nekola-diminutive, fast, and
accurate
Bolsters up the forward wall.
Along with Mr, Verthein, his running
mate
He keeps every one yelling in the hall.
Our other guard, .loe Simones is the name,
Called "Sigh" because of his lengthy
shots
Is likened to our Babe, the same,
By virtue of his accuracy-quite a lot

HORROR! MYS'ERY! GLAMOR!
DRAMA! TRAGEDY!
Scoop of the year! "Should be best
Feature story ever written"-fAquinas
Newsl.
Author defies elusive fiend who
heckles the student-body.
"Student life in danger of break-up! -
The students must know at any cost!"
Beginning a new' series of articles by
that noted author-S. S. Von Dime-
UOCI
Who is this immortal, never-to-be-
forgotten personage we so vividly remem-
ber and still know him not? Who is this
ungainly insecticide, this veritable Dr,
Jekyll and Mr. Hyde in the making, who
makes life at shcool one of constant fear
and worry? Who, l ask, is he . . . this
despicable, deplorable, demon who
causes even the formidable giant football
players to tighten their mighty biceps
and cast a protectingvarm around a lonely
damsel in order to save her from this
plague? Woe are we! Fate, thou hast dealt
dearly with us. . . Who, for the last time
l ask, is this monster, this vampire, locust,
and other form of low animal life, who
torments us with his under hand methods
of skull doggery and inhumaness? l'LLteIl
you who he is. . . He's the person who
slinks up behind us in a crowded hall
and with a deft flip of the wrist rids us of
our books and papers. ln the ensuing
panic that follows, he not only escapes
detection but his evil work is aided and
abetted by the trampling of feet upon
the books and papers-net result being
a loss of time work, and good humor for
awhile. . . What to do? What to do?
After giving the problem a great deal
of deliberation and deep thought, a
solution has been reached to wipe out
this rapidly growin plague. Professor l.
Solvent Problem-?of late from Aquinas
Chemistry Classl, issues the following
statement:
"After giving the matter a great deal of
thought, I have reacheda solution-Carry
a large sized rat-trap-6x8-between
each bookcover. The scoundrel will im-
mediately be caught in his villanous act
and will be brought swiftly to justice . . .
Simple, what?"-
So ends another baffling mystery ....
fSo ends another series of articles by
this authorl.
