The Exponents of Exponents Can you prove that the square of the hypotenuse of a right angle triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides? Can you factor a quadratic trinom-inal? Multiply a polvnominal radical expression? Obtain sines by measurement? C.H.S. math students display amazing knowledge as they know all these answers— or do they?—and they cleverly manipulate compasses and slide rules in geometry. Algebra and geometry are of value, according to Euclid, because they are a science of exact reasoning which will lead to logical thinking along other lines. Many students, however, will use these studies as basic preparation for careers, in science and engineering.

II. S. have been making adventures into literature, ancient and modern. Guided by Mariners Malleaux, Van, Larson, and Worden, we have attempted to understand ourselves and other peoples better through the study of great literature as expressed through ageless novels, poems, dramas, and essays. But the path of navigation from freshman to senior English is not a mere “Magic Carpet.” There are devious and twisting paths beset with work books, rules of grammar, themes, and teachers armed with snap quizzes and achievement tests. However, our mariner guides know the way. We learn to think clearly as we gain mastery over the spoken and written word. Directly below are LaVern Chilcote, Phyllis Braidwood, Carole Allen, and JoAnne Brooks, who were honored for their poetic abilities. Their poems were accepted for publication in the Anthology of the Great Lakes States section of the National High School Poetry Association.

If we students hope to make this a world where wars are no longer possible, we can do so only through a keen understanding of the history of our own and other nations. We must analyze the social and economic causes of war. Able director in the field of history is Mr. Zielinski, himself a veteran of World War II. Experience in government and parliamentary procedure is gained in the classes of Mr. Fear through civic discussions and forums. Classes conducted in the mold of Congress where students present bills, lobby and fillibuster, make students realize that good government can come only through intelligent participation.

Wierd shrieks floating gleefully down the stairways, penetrating the walls of adjacent classrooms, momentarily disrupting students from studious efforts or casual slumber! No! It is neither the thundering jungle nor eerie madhouse cries, as you may suppose! All this is merely regular gymnastic activities of high school students. Miss Fica and Mr. Asbury are stressing systematic exercises to develop strong bodies. Thus will students become prepared for the physical strains of later years. Dr. Moore and Mrs. Nelson, R.

His closest associates become the beakers and scales of the chemistry and physics departments, or the frogs and algae of the biology kingdom on the fourth floor. Many fascinating projects are discovered in both fields of natural and physical science by the eager and enthusiastic high school pupils. Of great importance was the contribution science made in the winning of the war. Equally important will be its part in post war years. Whether or not students prepare for careers in science, in industrial research, or in related fields such as medicine, nursing, home economics, or engineering, all are given sound instruction by Mr. Babcock and Miss Johnson.

Homemaking A very popular course this year is homemaking: taught by Mrs. Biebesheimer. During the first year, the girls learn about themselves, their grooming, their clothes, and their health. Second year homemaking deals with the girl and her home. This includes such studies as food preparations, child care, and budgeting family income. Third year prepares the girls to take their place in college, career, or home. The homemaking students gain practical exper-by putting on dinners for different organizations.

A friendly chap with a ready smile he was popular with the other players and the student body. His fighting qualities, his persistence, and his willingness to work hard for the team’s success made him a valuable cog in the Viking gridiron machine.

Captain Whaley and some other veterans together with a group of newcomers answered the call and soon another football season was on its way. The season opened auspiciously with Cadillac defeating Reed City, 19 to 0. Touchdowns were made in the first, second, and fourth quarters by Thompson and Kearney. There was just one real threat to the squad when the Reed City boys reached the Viking eight yard line. The score allowed the subs to get some experience also. The victory again went to the Vikings when they overwhelmed the Big Rapids Cardinals, 22 to 0, in the second game of the season. Most of the first half was spent in a punting dual except at the beginning of the second quarter when Cadillac’s strong defense forced Big Rapids into a safety netting two points for our boys. The outcome of the game was in doubt until the last quarter when Thompson and Kearney again went on a scoring spree, with strong support from the line, and made three touchdowns. The Vikings lost their first conference game to the Ludington Orioles. 7 to 0. It was a hard fought game all the way with both teams threatening frequently. The climax came when the Orioles completed a long pass for the touchdown. There was much good play shown by both teams with Booth and Kearney outstanding on offense and Thompson, Quinn, and Peterson on defense. Coach Asbury’s boys won their second conference game when they defeated the Manistee Chippewas, 7 to 0, on a rain soaked field. The game was played under very poor weather conditions and might easily have ended in a scoreless tie. Both teams struggled violently throughout the game. With twenty eight seconds left to play the Viking line opened up a hole for Kearney to make the winning touchdown. The outstanding game of the season brought victory to our squad with a 6 to 0 win over the Traverse City Trojans. The Vikings took the opening kickoff and in just eleven plays, with Lectka and Ulander doing most of the ball carrying, Kearney scored the one touchdown of the game. The rest of the evening was spent in an evenly matched battle with neither team being able to outdo the other. Captain Whaley’s boys were overpowered for the second time, 19-13, by the hard hit- “Gus” Thompson caught a pass and headed for the Ludington Clarence Ulander and “Chuck” Fro-;oal line less than ten yards away, but Walters, Oriole left end, man bring down Gerald Kaley of jrought him down. ’ Traverse City for no gain. — 52 — Larry Babel of Traverse ran wide around end with “Gus” Thompson in pursuit.

These teams are selected by all the coaches in the Big Eight Conference. James Kearney, who was chosen by his teammates as the most valuable player for 1945, and Dick Peterson, who was elected next year’s captain by his teammates, were picked for the all northern first team. Gordon Thompson, star Viking end, won a place on the all northern second team.

The morale of the team was high through the entire season although they won only three games. Coach Asbury’s squad consisted of three complete teams most of the year which is the largest squad Cadillac has had in the past ten years. Most of Coach Asbury’s attention this year was on the junior-sophomore combination consisting of Mills, Mohl, Hutchins, Holmquist, and Telgenhoff. They were kept fighting by the all-senior team of Gabier, Booth, Sjogren. Larry Johnson, and Shankland. We’re looking forward to the junior-senior combination to bring us a good season next year. The second team had a more successful season by winning six out of nine games. Coach Zielinski, who joined the faculty in mid-season, had charge of teaching the fundamentals of basketball to the freshmen. Through long hours of practice Coach Zielinski turned out four promising players. Johnson and Johns will probably see service on the first team next year with Gibson and Solomonson being the stars of the second team. SCORES H. S.-_- 14 Traverse City.. 50 H.

While the schedule was somewhat curtailed because of wartime restrictions, the season was a very successful one. The first match was played with Traverse City at Digging Park, Cadillac winning, 5 to 2. A return match was played at Traverse, Cadillac again winning by the score of 3 to 2. On May 30, the Vikings traveled to Mt. Pleasant for the regional tournament. There they competed against teams from East Lansing. Alma, and Mt. Pleasant. Again they were victorious. In the regional doubles, George and David Mills placed first. George Foster was runner-up with singles, losing only to Howard Stoddard of East Lansing who later won the state championship. At the close of the season, letters were awarded to George Foster, George Mills, Gerald Bogner, seniors; Gordon Thompson, junior; and David Mills, freshman.

The team, composed of twenty members, lost their first meet, a triangular with Traverse City and Leelanau, by 1 1-3 points, to Traverse City. The next week the Vikings came through by winning an invitational meet at Ludington with Traverse City, Ludington, Manistee, and Cadillac taking part. The Vikings won again the next week in an invitational meet at home with the same schools and Petoskey. They came through again in the big meet of the year, the regional, defeating Traverse City by 14 1-2 points.

Horne From the Wars, the Vikings Relax and Play Again ACTIVITIES Hi-Y Club Active and Successful This year’s Hi-Y club has been a very active and successful organization. It has performed many services for the school and community, as well as enriching the lives of its own members. Representatives were sent to the Hi-Y state legislature at Lansing and to the annual Older Boys’ Conference. This summer four boys will be sent to the Hi-Y camp. The group attended church in a body several times. A memorial plaque will be When the Hi-Y boys returned from the Older Boys’ Conference, they presented a roundtable discussion for a student assembly. Chairman was James Kearney (standing). Others were Clifford Sjogren, Clarence Ulander, Jack Quinn, Dick Anderson, George Telgenhoff, and Gordon Thompson. presented to the high school to honor former students of C. H. S. who gave their lives in World War II. The club sponsored the annual vaudeville show, besides the Miss C. H. S. dance, and several other parties. The officers this year were President Jack Quinn, Vice President Richard Anderson, Secretary Clifford Sjogren, and Treasurer Richard Shankland. Mr. Babcock acted as adviser.

Girl Reserves Keeps Girls Busy The Girl Reserves’ main purpose is to give the girls opportunities to work and play together. They have acquired a large membership of sixty-five girls this year who have managed to keep themselves busy with the club’s various activities. Besides sponsoring the Rompers Romp, and dances of Christmas, Valentine Day, and other times, they have enjoyed a slumber party, talent night, hikes, and joint banquets with other clubs. The club is run by a point system, the more active the member, the more points to her credit. In the early summer the most active members enjoy a wonderful week at school camp. Doris Fowler is president while Jacqueline LaMonde, Joyce English, and Patricia Tompkins are vice president, secretary, and treasurer, respectively. — 65 — Top row: Betty Brooks, Shirley Swanquist, Mary Jo Pettengill, Jeannette Pierson, Helen Pierson, Margaret Westergren, Shirley Avery, Phyllis Baker, Bonnie Brooks.

Here Patsy Law gets the finger of scorn from Barbara Blaisdell, Mary Ann Paulson, and Beverly Brehm. Forty girls, a counselor, a little initiative and a lot of enthusiasm, there you have the Recreators. This club, whose purpose it is to foster good sportsmanship, and to further interest in athletic and social activities among girls, has now been active in C. H. S. for twenty years. Highlights of this year’s program were a slumber party, a tobogganning party, a sleighride, joint parties with the Hi-Y and Girl Reserves, and the annual dance following Maidens’ Week. Hikes, picnics, indoor and outdoor sports, all had their place in the Recreators Club. The officers were Adeline Halsted, president; Patt Chick, vice president; Jackie LaMonde, secretary; Delores Whitacre, treasurer; and Jo Anne Brooks, parliamentarian. Miss Fica acted as adviser and Betty Brooks as song leader. — 66 — Student Council Represents Us The problems of the Student Council are many and varied. It is the one group which expresses the sentiments of the student body, and possesses the organization to make those wishes known. Its personnel is composed of two representatives from each class and one from each club, elected by the members of classes and clubs. The student body elected Dean Sprague as president of the council. The other offi- cers were George Telgenhoff, vice president; Lorraine Henwood, secretary; Delores Whit-acre, treasurer; and Miss Brandenburg, adviser. Biggest events of the year were the outdoor assembly before the Traverse game and the all-school Christmas party. The council also sponsored the Red Cross and other drives, the pep assemblies, parties, and dances. Candidates for Student Council president were nominated at a general assembly. Here the campaign managers draw names from the hat to see who will be the first to place his candidate in nomination. Last year’s president, Harry Loughrin, conducted the drawings. lop row: Bonnie Brooks, Margaret Arndt.

This group was headed by Doris Nordell as editor, and Mrs. Kenaga and Mrs. Dell as advisers. As has been the case for several years the news was printed weekly in the Cadillac Evening News, rather than in a separate newspaper of our own in the high school. This makes for better reporting and better news articles, and the elimination of certain questionable features so often found in high school papers. The ideal, however, is still a newspaper of our very own. Jeannine Hurd, assistant editor this year, will become the editor when school convenes again in September. One news worthy event of the year was the recruiting of high school boys by Mr. Biebeshei-mer, county agent, to help the farmers dig and pick up potatoes. Shown here with Mr. Bie-besheimer are Ed Nystrom, Frank DeBoise, Terry Guest, William Fry, and Dwight Spencer. — 68 — We Like Parties Miss Hutchins entertains her home room at a dinner party at her home.

The freshmen had a great time marching around the gym, stopping suddenly, shaking hands with the person nearest, and getting acquainted with each other. The teachers had a tea to honor Miss Kardell on her birthday. Facing the camera are Mrs. Minier, Miss Minier, and Miss Kardell. The lady with the steam going up her back is Mrs. Dell. Finishing up the refreshments after the party is always a pleasant task. Enjoying the fun are Ruth Mattison, Beth Johnson, Jackie Watt, Dean Sprague, and in the rear are Mr. As-bury and Miss Brandenburg. — 69 — The Log _____ (Member ( Htstl92f) The work is just about completed for the Log as Doris and Mr. Van make their final corrections in the dummy. Way back in the spring of 1945 the Log for 1946 was born. Before last year’s book was ever; off the press the editor, Doris Okervall, and Mr. Van were holding conferences and laying the groundwork for this year’s book. By the time school started Doris was ready to gather her staff about her and go to work. The end of the war provided a theme, “The Vikings Return.” The end of the war did not see the end of difficulties for the staff. Film was still hard to get, labor was scarce, students were busy on jobs outside of school, and cover stock was limited. But the staff worked hard, and the 1946 Log is a product of their best efforts. It’s the biggest book we’ve had in a long time. We think it’s swell and if you like it we’re happy. The students marched across the stage and received their 1! 45 Logs from Business Manager Jack Westman and his assistants. Five hundred yearbooks were printed and sold last year. Doris Okervall checks the envelopes as the freshmen line up for their pictures in the teachers’ room. The freshmen caught by the camera are Don Bougrand. Barbara Barry, Floyd Birdwell, Vera Beerens, and Margaret Peterson. — 70 — Betty Brooks mounts pictures, Adeline Hal-sted writes copy, while Dick Shankland i s “busy hanging- around.” All copy for the Log must be typewritten, and the girls who did that job are Beverlee Graham, Mary Jo Pettengill, and Margaret Elenbaas. Thelma McArthur also helped when the work began to pile up. Doing the art work for the book are Corinne Greenberg, Carole Allen, Phyllis Braidwood, and James Olsson.

Fill Lyric Two Nights The nights of February 27 and 28 will live long in the memory of students of C. H. S. and especially in the memory of twenty-one students who took part in the twenty-fifth annual junior-senior play. For the first time at the Lyric Theatre the play was presented two nights and the size of the crowds proved the wisdom of this. Over thirteen hundred people saw the play. Another innovation was the use of double casting in some parts, certain students playing parts in Wednesday’s performance and others taking their places on Thursday. The play, “And Came The Spring,” was an ideal play for high school students. It dealt with the trials of the Hartmans and their three ’teen age children during the week of spring vacation. The comedy kept the audience laughing and highly entertained. It marked the final appearance on the Lyric stage of some of the high school’s most experienced actors, Shirley Swanquist, Betty Brooks, Jackie Watt, Dean Sprague, Keith Dahlquist, and Jack Quinn. Two understanding but sometimes baft led parents were Terry Guest and Dona For-quer. Here Keith presents Mrs. Hartman with orchids because he admires her stability. — 73 — Bruce Terwilliger, the hen-pecked husband, meekly takes orders from his wife, Beth Johnson.

And sometimes even though you stand for an hour along crowded walls, you forget to be bored when play production classes are presenting comedies, or faculty members in bobby socks and pajamas are putting dignity aside. Exciting, too, have been the pep assemblies conducted by members of the student council, with assisting band and cheer leaders, Corcoran, Dahlquist, and Sprague. In more serious vein was the Thanksgiving assembly with Dr. Lauren E. Brubaker as speaker. Outstanding among all assemblies were those in the Presbyterian Church, The students honored Judge Millington by presenting him with an autographed copy of the Lo? for his many contributions to C. H. S. assemblies. Dr. Alberts, popular speaker for the Rotary International series of assemblies, poses with Student Council President Dean Sprague. Early in the fall the Kentucky Harmony Singers, featuring the world’s only female bass, entertained the students. — 78 — Above: The Student Council presented “Truth or Consequences.” Alles Chambers did a hilarious job of making up Dick Peterson. and Inspirational where through the courtesy of the Rotary Club we listened to famous speakers on such intriguing subjects as “Career Opportunities In Aviation,” “China and the Chinese People,” “Understanding Your Neighbors,” “Foreign Affairs and the San Francisco Conference.” There were many more of various kinds, all tending to make school more interesting, entertaining, and helpful.

The Prom Follows Theme of the Shortly before finals and that time when books could be eagerly tossed aside came the biggest social event of the school year, the prom, given by the juniors in honor of the seniors. The Elks Temple, decorated with banners, flags of many countries, and a huge map of the world, became for the evening the gay locale of the United Nations. The theme of Internationalism was also interpreted by the orchestra in the rhythms of many lands. United Nations Preceding the dance there was the banquet tor all juniors, seniors, and teachers at the First Methodist Church. Dean Sprague was toastmaster. Shown below are the speakers, Wendell Brenner, Betty Brooks, Dean Sprague, Doris Okervall, James Houston, and Mr. T. Brown.

Teachers’ Club Puts On A Carnival To provide a swimming instructor for the school camp has become a project of the Cadillac Teachers’ Club. Last year the Club promoted a carnival to raise the funds and this year the carnival was repeated. The high school building became the scene of cake walks, beano games, dancing, lunches, and even a sideshow in the assembly. Everybody had a good time and the camp was insured its swimming instructor. Jack Lamphere, Elden Braley, Ron Swanson, and Gordon Bryce Flynn, Sue Marquardt, and Sharon Solomonson patronized the lunch room for coffee and dough- Masak had a hilarious time at the carnival, nuts. — 85 — The ancient order was reversed during Maidens’ Week when the girls assumed the boys’ prerogatives and duties.
