Editor - in - Chief Patrica Law Business Managers Suzanne Wathen V Mary Ann Paulson Faculty Adviser M. W. Van Oostenburg Published by the Senior Class Cadillac High School Cadillac, Michigan — 2 — A building, old but beautiful in the summer’s sun—ivy clinging to its walls—bricks the color of faded roses—walks that felt the tread of generations—grass green with spring rains—lawns that bore the weight of cheering pep crowds—halls that rang with students’ laughter—windows that sang in winter’s wind—assemblies that amused us, assemblies that inspired us—rooms where typewriters hummed, where orators declaimed, where students studied, and loafers loafed—teachers that guided us—assignments that challenged us—bells that called us to our duties, bells that sent us forth at end of day. These, and many more, are the memories we take with us as we cast one last, long look at the old C. H. S. of our happy teen-age years. While driving about Cadillac one day last spring, we became suddenly aware of the numerous bridges we were crossing. The city and the surrounding country is studded with these man-made devices that enable us to cross streams and rivers to explore what is cn the other side. Many of us cross some of these bridges on the way to school. Most of us cross the bridge on the Clam when we go to Lincoln Field for the football games. Stop for a minute in the city park and you see the pretty little rustic bridge at the lake’s edge. Take your fishing rod and get out of town. Whatever stream you choose to fish you encounter bridges, little bridges of just a few logs thrown across Bear Creek, or beautiful works of engineering skill like the famous Cooley Bridge across the Manistee. As we contemplated these bridges, we observed the parallel to our life in high school. A philosopher has said, “Life is a bridge, ye are to pass over it, not dwell upon it.” That is how we pictured our days at C. H. S., a bridge from childhood to the future, a bridge on which we spend many happy days. From the day Mr. Mills welcomes us as we step upon the bridge until the day Mr. Shankland hands us our diplomas, we have been advancing, making ourselves ready for the future on the other side of the bridge. — 5 — the Bridge of Days at C. H. S. 1 - The Students Who Cross the Bridge. 2 - The Teachers Who Guide Us. 3 - The Sports We Enjoy. 4 - The Fun We Have. 5 - The Merchants We Patronize. — 7 — As We There are moments of fun ma Cross the Bridge And at the end there is a reward — 9 — There are moments of sadness On the pretty little bridge in the city park we find Doreen Jantz and Adele Joynt. Many people stop on this bridge to view the beauties of Lake Cadillac. To C.H.S. also come many persons, some six hundred of us, every day to stop and get acquainted and view the many facets of modern education. So with this picture of Doreen and Adele let us introduce to you the many fellow travelers on the bridge of days at C.H.S. Why moot we on the bridge of time to change one greeting and to part? —Sir Kichard Burton — 10 — Even school books can’t repress the gay spirits of these happy officers of the senior class. Reading from left, they are James Gibson and Guy VanderJagt, co-salutatorians and bosom pals. Then comes Ann Bachant, that pretty miss from Traverse City. At the right is Catherine Price, wise, winsome, and, oh, so capable and efficient.

In the pages that follow we have tried to show you the reflections of yourselves as you went from class to class. We have pictured for you also the teachers who lead us across the bridge. As you peruse the pages of the classroom section, may you recall the days of work you spent in every class from freshman English to senior government. The youth get« together his material to build a bridge to the moon, or per ••bailee, a palace or temple on the earth, and. at length, the middle aged man concludes to build a woodshed with them. —Thoreau — 32 — Mr. Shankland dictates to his new secretary, Lucille Bourassa. The Superintendent-B. C. Shankland Shirley Swanquist Doris Kardell There’s one spot in the school that few of us ever visit. That’s the superintendent’s office. If we did enter we would find that we had entered a very busy place. Here Mr. B. C. Shankland, Superintendent of Schools, is busy directing the policies and programs that provide education for all of Cadillac’s youth. Helping him are his secretaries, Doris Kardell and Lucille Bourassa. Miss Bourassa took over the job when Shirley Swanquist resigned in December to be married. — 34 — Helping Keith Harnick to plan for the future, Mr. Mills goes over college catalogs with him. I he Principal-George H. Mills Corinne Baker We are all familiar with the principal’s office, some of us to our sorrow. Here Principal George H. Mills holds sway and personally directs the affairs of all high school students as they cross the bridge to the future. Mr. Mills’ secretary is Corinne Baker, graduate of the 1948 class of C. H. S. She succeeded Lois Johnson who resigned last June to enter college. — 35 — Hiram R. Becker Eunice Malleaux Loraine H. Worden We Improve Our English The tallest man in the Cadillac school system is Hiram R. Becker. He just towers over those little freshmen to whom he teaches English. This quiet, friendly ohap is also the popular coach of our football team. He has a B. S. degree granted by Central Michigan College of Education. In room 25 is a quiet, soft spoken, little lady who teaches freshman and sophomore English. Her name is Eunice Malleaux, freshman class adviser. She is a former valedictorian of C. H. S. and has a B. S. degree from Northwestern University. Sophomore and senior English are taught by Ix ra!ne H. Worden. A graduate of Hope College, where she received her A. B. degree, Mrs. Worden has also done graduate work at the University of Michigan. No matter what course one is taking a background of English is indispensable. The ability to read, understand, and express ourselves in the mother tongue is essential. Literature is also studied by the English students. The freshmen and sophomores have a general background covering authors of different types and nationalities. The juniors concentrate on American writers while the seniors study about the main English authors and their writings. Phyllis Kirk uses the globe to illustrate as she tells about the travel book she read for outside reading in sophomore English. — 36 — We Leam Office Ways Rae E. Johnston Alice Kenaga Teacher of typing, business law, and business training is Frieda Dell. She is also a senior class adviser. Mrs. Dell received her II. S. degree from Michigan State Normal College at Ypsilanti. Faculty financial adviser, Rae E. Johnston, teaches business training and bookkeeping. Mr. Johnston attended the University of Michigan from which he received his B. S. and M. A. degrees. He also attended Ferris Institute. Anyone who aspires to a commercial career will certainly study under Alice Kenaga, teacher of shorthand and typing. This quiet, efficient teacher has a B. S. degree from Central Michigan College and has also studied at Michigan State Teachers College and Ferris Institute. Students taking a commercial course are taking their first step across the bridge which may lead them to a job pounding a typewriter, jotting down shorthand as letters are dictated to them, or keeping books and records in neat order. Other students are learning to type so that college work will be easier for them to prepare. Whatever their plans might be, these students are receiving valuable training which they can always use. With another dreaded budget due on Friday afternoon, these budding typists knuckle down to work. — 37 — Learn Arland F. Martin James Nesbitt Richard Schwichtenberg Quite a busy person is Arland F. Martin who can usually be found writing admits as Dean of Boys. When he’s not doing this, he teaches U. S. history and U. S. government, coaches baseball, and supervises the grade school athletic program. Mr. Martin attended Western Michigan College for his B. S. degree and the University of Michigan for his M. A. degree. Every student at some time or other has had his ear drums punctured by James Nesbitt’s “Quiet!” Besides maintaining a somewhat lusty order in the fourth period assembly, he also teaches American and world history. He is assistant football coach and head coach of basketball and track. He is the possessor of a B. S. degree from Central Michigan College. A new teacher is Richard J. Schwichtenberg, instructor of junior English and economics. This man with the square face, the crew haircut, and the unpronouncable name, likes to be known as a perfect disciplinarian. He came to us with a B. S. degree from the State Teachers College of Milwaukee. To understand the problems of world affairs of today we study the problems of the past. This we do in American and world history. The operation and functions of government and politics, the intracacies of modern finance, these are explained to us in government and economics classes. Mr. Martin explains the ballot to his government students. In f:ont are Paul Pittman, James Dahlquist, and “Bill” Ault. Behind them are Tom Price and Larry Terrell. — 38 — Above left: Students sign the application blanks for ballots.

Rooths young vot their turn Science Sharks Junior class adviser, .Mary E. Vilas, teaches general science and biology. Miss Vilas attended Central Michigan College of Education for her B. S. degree and last summer she started work on her Master’s degree at the University of Michigan. Edward A. Babcock Mary Vilas A scientific career is a hard one but also a very worthwhile one. Today’s scientists are making many new discoveries to make life easier for us. The chemistry and physics students spend much time in the laboratory working experiments while the biology students spend their time learning about plant and animal life. Being adviser for the Cadillacan, Hi-Y, and the senior class, keeps Edward A. Babcock busy but he still finds time to give long assignments and tests to his chemistry, physics, and journalism students. Mr. B. attended Ferris Institute, received his A. B. degree from Central Michigan College of Education, his M. A. degree from Michigan State College, and did graduate work at the University of Michigan. You know what makes a crayfish tick? Verda Frye, Dick Gallivan, Meril Hodgson, and Ruth Cleveland are finding out. How coal decomposes to form other products is the problem in this experiment i n destructive distillation. The students (clockwise, starting at the left) are Phil Schenden, Ruth Robbins, Robert Lyon, Duane Leazenby, Ann Petrie, and Loraine Moote. — 40 — Mathematicians Beatrice J. Hutchins should know all the angles by now, for her job is teaching plane and solid geometry, algebra, and trigonometry. Besides receiving her A. B. degree from Western Michigan College of Education, she has done graduate study at the University of Michigan. Most of the freshmen know Mary S. Johnson for besides being their class adviser, she also has most of them in algebra or general mathematics classes. She studied at Central Michigan College and the University of Michigan, and received her B. S. degree at Michigan State College. The engineers who build bridges first had to have a background of mathematics. To the younger child, mathematics is just plain addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. When he enters high school, he finds that there is much more to know about it for mathematics is not just one science but a group of sciences joined together by similarity in subject matter and treatment. In the study of algebra he learns to solve for an unknown quantity; in geometry he learns to develop his reasoning power, as well as work out new applications for himself in the realm of higher mathematics. The geometry students make models for use in class. — 41 — 1 W1 Youth at the Wheelk 3 Driver training is one of the newest courses added tof I • the curriculum of C. H. S. In this course, the students learn to become careful and considerate drivers. However, learning how to drive is not all that is stressed for the students also learn how to change a tire besides learning the functions of different parts of a car. Their course of study is climaxed by a night trip to some nearby town. When the students are on their own in driving cars it is hoped they will put their learning to good use for careful driving saves lives. Upper left: Jerry Kenyon jacks up the car, Verna DeJean holds the hubcap, Adele Joynt unscrews the nuts, and Floyd Oliver watches, as the students learn to change a tire. Upper right: Ron Foster takes the wheel. Lower: Mr. Carpenter explains the car’s “innards” to James Westman, Donna Meek, Gerald Braley, and Ron Foster. Morris Carpenter C. H. S. students should be good drivers with Morris R. Carpenter teaching them in the drivers’ training course. Mr. Carpenter is also faculty athletic manager and an adviser Iot the sophomore class. From Western Michigan College of Education he received his B. S. degree. r We Read as We Go Ila L. Minier Books play an important part in our lives. We study from them, read them for pleasure, or maybe just look at the pictures; nevertheless, the library is the place to go for these books. Here we may find a number of books devoted to almost any field as well as encyclopedias and the current magazines of the day. Of course, if one needs a magazine of a previous date, that is there too. The students of C. H. S. are fortunate in having such an excellent library. A lover of books, magazines, and newspapers is Ila L. Minier, who spends her days reigning over the domain of the library. She varies this with her duties as sophomore class adviser. Miss Minier re- ceived her A. B. degree from Central Michigan College and has done graduate study at the School of Librarianship, University of Denver. Busy reading in the library are Dwaine Sutton, Alieta Smith, Robert Holly, and David Mitchell. Jerry Bell checks out a book for Phil Laney. First to grab the morning Herald when the all-conference football selections were announced, were “Dutch” Smrekar, Tom Watson, John Grice, William McClinchey, and Ronald Winchester. — 43 — Healthy Bodies That peppy co-adviser of the Fawns is Mary Fica who also teaches girls’ physical education classes and freshman civics. Miss Fica’s B. S. degree was granted her from Central Michigan College of Education. A junior adviser new to C. H. S. is Richard C. Young, teacher of American history and physical education for boys. His other activities include being reserve coach for football and basketball teams and coaching tennis. Mr. Young’s alma mater is Michigan State College from which he received his B. S. Degree. Richard C. Young J J Physical education is as important as any of the other subjects. It affords a chance to relax the mind and keep in trim at the same time. As the students participate in team games such as basketball and volley ball, they learn to cooperate and to work together. Calisthenics also have their part in the gym program for proper exercising is the basic step for a healthy body and a healthier life. Left: Helen Griswold shows class in the volley ball game.

He received his B. S. degree from Western Michigan College of Education and also attended the University of Michigan and Wayne University. Most of us seldom see or hear Lynn L. Kingsley, but the boys who take manual training and advanced drawing know him well. He is a newcomer this year who came to us with a B. S. degree from the Stout Institute of Menomine, Wisconsin. Lynn L. Kingsley In the shop the boys make many useful objects out of wood and metal. Learning to make things isn’t all they do for they also learn the uses and care of the various tools. Working with blueprints, machines, and making nice articles f or the home are just a few of the many projects for which the boys strive. Below: Ed Narva tries out one of the new machines. Upper right: The boys learn the rudiments of mechanical drawing. Lower right: The boys make cookie cutters in metal shop. m — 45 — Developing Artists The word, art,” brings to mind a variety of work designed to please the eye. Printing, lettering, color harmony, design, and water color are some of the types of work done by the art students; however, the purpose of art is not to make great artists of the students but to teach them appreciation. The first year the students get a general background of the things which can be done in art. The second year students develop their previous knowledge and pick a field in which to specialize. During the third year, besides perfecting their field of specialization, the students study and gain a better understanding of the fine arts. Another newcomer to C. H. S. this year is Clyde J. receiving his B. S. degree from Central Michigan Flickinger who teaches art and junior English, and College of Education and his M. A. degree from is a freshman adviser. Mr. Flickinger has done the University of Michigan, graduate work at the University of Colorado after Clyde J. Flickinger At first we thought it was Cleopatra on her barge. A second look told us it was Willa Holmberg acting as a model for the art class. Tom Price, Doreen J a n t z, and Marilyn Lamphere are interested in the exhibits of the art classes’ work. — 46 — All Together, Let’s Sing Music consists of combinations of sounds which are pleasing to the ear. Whether musically inclined or not, everyone can enjoy music, be it the mighty symphony, the light and gay folk tunes, or the popular tunes which come and go as new ones take their places. The members of the band and the chorus classes broaden their repertoire by the playing and singing of different types of songs. The music appreciation class learns to appreciate good music by listening to recordings and then discussing what they have heard. Joseph Kidolph Joseph Kidolph has charge of all music, vocal and instrumental, at C. H. S. and teaches a class in music appreciation, besides being a junior class adviser. Mr. Kidolph earned his B. E. degree from Northern Illinois College, his M. A. degree from the University of Michigan, and has done special graduate work at Central Michigan College. The future Gladys Swart-houts and Bing Crosbys take their first lessons. A nondescript looking group are these junior band members, but how they’ll shine next fall when they put on uniforms and march with the band at the football games. — 47 — We Cook, Sew, One project of the homemaking class is to put on a breakfast and invite guests. This group invited Miss Fica and Mr. Van. Of course, part of the group had to act as cooks and dishwashers. At the annual exhibit of the work done by the art and homemaking classes, the girls served refreshments for the visiting mothers. The boys, too, learn what home duties are. In this lesson the boys learned how to bathe a baby. “Bob” Dahlgren is holding the baby. — 48 — and Bathe Babies Teaching how to make a delicious cake that makes one’s mouth water is just routine for Betty L. Dorr, teacher of homemaking. Miss Doit is also an adviser for the sophomores, the Y-Teen Fawns, and of the newly organized F. H. A. She received her B. S. degree from Central Michigan College. Dorothy M. Haynes devotes her time to teaching the fine arts of home-making and being adviser for the junior class. Her alma mater is Western Michigan College of Education where she received her B. S. degree. Betty L. Dorr Dorothy M. Haynes Tomorrow’s homemakers are gaining their experience in our home-making classes. They realize the importance of their future roles and know that what they learn now will help them later. Preparing a meal rich in vitamins, correctly setting the table when company drops in, or baking those light fluffy biscuits which everyone envies, all these are as simple as ABC when you know how. If your wardrobe is getting a little low, you can make for yourself that dress you’ve been wanting, or one of those hand-knit sweaters that everyone admires? Yes, these are just a few of the valuable things learned in homemaking. Right: Making baby clothes, Doris Kwilinski shows off her garment to Colleen McReavy and Kathleen Morgan.

The history of a people is legible in its language. The French language, beautiful and harmonious, has been used for centuries as an international bridge between other countries. Besides getting much pleasure from the reading of French novels and plays, the students also gain a better understanding of the customs and traits of the country. The Study of Latin is important because so many English words are derived from Latin that it is a valuable aid in increasing the vocabulary. Both French and Latin students participate in the singing of traditional carols and songs, and what could be a more pleasant way to learn a language? Dana J. Brandenburg Most of the girls are probably familiar with Dana J. Brandenburg, Dean of Girls, who gives them their excuses and admits to classes. Miss Brandenburg teaches the language classes, French and Latin. She received her A. B. degree from Kalamazoo College and her M. A. degree from the University of Michigan. This group of girls is having a good time reading a letter that Beverly Brehm has received fiom a student in France. Sitting on the desks are Bonnie Brooks and Hilma Finstrom. In front are Carolyn Westman, Beverly Brehm, Marilyn Braidwood and FUa Witherspoon. Plenty of blackboard drill on declensions and conjugations is the lot of the members of the freshman Latin class. — 50 — We Rise to Remark, to Orate and Declaim It may not be easy to get up and talk before a group, but then, that is one of the reasons for taking speech. Mr. Van has taught many hundreds of students to become better speakers. Then when they were grown up and wanted to make some remarks in child study club, or tell their union colleagues about working conditions in their plant, they knew how to do it. Yes, good speech habits are as essential for the future as eating and sleeping. A man who is never tongue-tied and teaches the freshmen, sophomores, and juniors not to be, is M. W. Van Oostenburg, the teacher of public speaking. Mr. Van also has charge of the play production M. W. Van Oostenburg classes and each year directs the junior-senior play, in addition to being the adviser for the Log. His A. B. degree is from Hope College and his M. A. degree from the University of Michigan. Right: Mary Ella Bell demonstrates on Leonard Fet-tig the proper way of lathering the face for shaving.

VIKINGS SCORE ON FIRST PLAY The Vikings opened the season at Lincoln Field by scoring the first time that they had their hands on the ball. Keith Harnick took the ball on a reverse and raced sixty-seven yards to score. Gibson, the Viking left half, found the goal line twice. The other touchdown was accounted for when center “Bud’' Oliver intercepted a Bobcat pass and stepped over into the end zone. VIKINGS SLAUGHTER FREMONT The Vikings put on a gridiron show that will be long remembered by the football fans of Northern Michigan as they beat the Fre- mont Packers. Rolling up sixteen first downs, the Vikings scored in every stanza. “Jim” Gibson and Keith Harnick each lugged the pigskin over the goal line in the first quarter. Harnick and Lennart Ulander added two more in the second quarter to give the Vikings a 25-0 half-time lead. The second half was much the same as the first. The Packers were helpless as Ulander, Gibson, and Fettig tallied with ease.

Right: Keith Harnick was pulled down from behind after an end run in the Traverse game. — 58 — Everybody is on his feet as the kick-off signals the opening of the 1948 season. tween two strong rivals. The Vikings, who displayed a very impressive ball club in their first two previous appearances, never had a chance to get their offense rolling against the inspired boys from Traverse City. Cadillac’s only touchdown came when Traverse, in a desperate attempt to score before the half ended, passed from deep in their own territory. Osborn snatched the ball from the arms of the Trojan end and raced the remaining twenty-five yards for the tally. The Trojans scored late in the fourth quarter when a Traverse end grabbed a partially blocked punt and scored. OUR ONLY LOSS Although Mt. Pleasant was touted as the strongest team in the conference, the Vikings and Coach Becker nursed a secret hope that we could lick the champs. However, Lady Luck frowned on us. In the first quarter the Mt. Pleasant quarterback raced fifty-one yards for a touchdown. In the second quarter, the speedy Freeze ran ninety yards for a second touchdown. Outside of those two long runs, the Vikings played the husky Oilers to a standstill. This game proved to be Cadillac’s only loss as Mt. Pleasant went on to win the conference title. “Jim” Gibson, Viking speedster and stellar ground gainer, takes off on a couple of end runs against Houghton Lake. “Bill” Dahlquist (25) can be seen leading the interference. CADILLAC SURPRISES PETOSKEY The Vikings played inspired ball to defeat the Northmen, 13-6 at Petoskey. The Vikings penetrated deep into Petoskey’s territory several times throughout the game, but they were only able to push the ball over for two touchdowns, one in the second quarter and the other in the third. Dahlquist, Cadillac’s plunging fullback, barreled over for both touchdowns. Only once did Petoskey crack the Viking defense. On the first play of the fourth quarter, Kete of Petoskey took the ball on a quick opening off the T formation and sprinted eighty yards for six points. EARLY SCORES BEAT MANISTEE The Vikings displayed a well balanced offense and defense to beat Manistee, 13-0, in a hard fought battle. Ulander, setting up his own touchdown jaunt with an end run, sliced off tackle on the second play of the game and out-raced the Manistee secondary for the first touchdown. After a Manistee punt was blocked, Gibson and Harnick carried the ball to the five yard line. Fettig plunged over for the second touchdown. With the Vikings holding a 13-0 half-time lead, the Chippewas filled the air with passes in the second half in an all out attempt to score. Ulander intercepted a Manistee pass on the Cadillac seven yard line to end Manistee’s only threat. CADILLAC RUINS ORIOLE HOMECOMING The Vikings spoiled the Ludington homecoming in a 7-0 hard fought battle. The Orioles threatened the Vikings several times during the first half. Cadillac, unable to get underway, had lots of trouble and a hard uphill fight on its hands. The Viking tally came with less than five seconds remaining before the half ended. The Vikings marched seventy-five yards to score on a seven yard pass from Gibson to Watson. Osborn sparked the drive with a twenty-eight yard pass to Kent Johns. Ludington’s vain efforts to get into the scoring column added many thrills and exciting moments to the game. BIG RAPIDS LOSES IN THE MUD Cadillac ended its 1948 grid season by playing host to Big Rapids on a muddy and slippery field. Cadillac came to life in the second half after a scoreless first half to defeat Big Rapids, 13-0. Rain and mud were a big factor in slowing up the two teams. Once Big Rapids penetrated to the Viking sixteen yard line where the Cadillac line stiffened and stopped Big Rapids’ only threat. The second half proved to be a different story. Gibson raced sixty yards for the first touchdown midway in the third quarter. In the fourth quarter Gibson passed to Johns who raced the remaining thirty yards for a touchdown to give Cadillac a 12-0 lead. REED CITY IS STUBBORN Although Reed City is a class C school they proved a stubborn foe. Cadillac penetrated deep into the Coyotes’ territory almost at will but had trouble in scoring. In the second quarter Ulander passed to Hornbaker who side-stepped the Reed City secondary defense and raced across the goal line. Horn-baker scored a second touchdown on a reverse from the Reed City twenty-two yard line. Here’s the gang responsible for leading yells at the games and pep meetings. In the top row are Lottie Foster, Connie LaChonce, Marion Cass, Loraine Moote, Ann Petrie and Sue Wathen.

Little Vikings Do All Right Young’s youngsters came through with a successful season this year with three wins, three ties, and one loss. The outstanding backfield men for the little Vikings were Dick Willis, Robert Dahl-gren, William Smrekar, Elwood Mattson, James Meek, and Richard Laurent. Dick Willis sparked the offensive play with accurate passing and hard running. His ability earned him a promotion to the varsity. Dahlgren was the leading ground gainer after Willis’ promotion. Ed Foster, Bert Zagers, Ed Carlson, James DuCap, and Merton Willaman bolstered the middle of the line, while Anthony Stayer, Gordon Van Wieren, Dale Stevens, and Tom Maxwell held down the end positions. Bert Zagers played only the first three games before a chipped elbow put him on the shelf for the remainder of the season. The reserves’ greatest triumph came at the expense of Reed City. The game featured long runs by Dahlgren, Willis, and Mattson. Mattson made the longest run of the season when he intercepted a Reed City pass on his own five yard line and went all the way for a touchdown.

H. S. had such an exciting basketball season. After eighteen years of acting as the poor relation of all the teams of the north, the Vikings finally struck it rich. Not in twenty years has Cadillac had an undisputed basketball championship, but we did it this year. Fifteen games were played, and thirteen were chalked up in the win column. Thrills! Tension! Excitement! We experienced them all. Fans screamed themselves hoarse, husky players fainted. Victories in the first two games aroused only mild interest, but when the third game saw the Vikings overcome a fifteen point lead to whip Manistee, everybody began to take notice of Coach Nesbitt’s boys. A week later the climax was reached when we beat Traverse City by one point in an overtime game. Then after piling up a seven game winning streak, we had a mild scare when Ludington really walloped us and Big Rapids beat us by one point. However, Mr. Nesbitt got his machine to clicking again, and we went into high gear to win all the remaining games. The fact that Traverse City took our measure in the tournament in no way dimmed the luster of the conference championship. Even the tournament game was a thriller as the Vikings came from behind to tie the score in regulation time and sent the game into two overtime periods before finally losing. After blaming our small floor for the long victory famine, it is interesting to note that we won on the same small floor that has been blamed for all our defeats. We won not only because Ulander, Johns, Price, Caldwell, and Laurent formed an excellent first team, but also because each was less interested in personal glory than he was in the success of the team as a whole. Top that off with Coach Nesbitt’s capable coaching and some good reserve players and you have the reason for Cadillac’s success.

The team played splendid ball throughout the season. Traverse City’s seconds were the only ones to beat the little Vikings in both encounters. In the rest of the games the boys played good ball and easily defeated their opponents.

The Cadillac track squad had a very full schedule last year with two dual meets, the conference and regional meets, two invitational meets and the state meet in Lansing. In both of the dual meets Cadillac came through with very comfortable margins; but with Ludington loaded to the teeth as usual, Cadillac stood little chance of taking first in the regional or the conference meets. Although we had many first place winners, there were not enough points to outdistance the Ludington Orioles. We placed second in the regional and third in the conference be- hind Mt. Pleasant. We also placed second in both invitational meets. Members of the team qualifying for the state meet were Jack Forquer, Jack Skoog, Bernard Teelander, Jack Hornbaker, Jerry Leach, and Keith Harnick. The only one of these boys to place in the meet was Jack Skoog, who took second in the half mile. Jerry Leach, who runs the 100 and 220 yard dash and the relay; Jack Hornbaker, who gives the hurdles a very “mean” time; and Keith Harnick, who competes in the 440, broad jump, and the relay; are all back.

Two of Cadillac’s best golfers, Gordon Carlson and Charles Mohl, practice at the Country Club. The fairway men of Cadillac High School were in full strength last year as they met a very rugged schedule. Charles Mohl, James Westman, Gordon Carlson, and Phil Webb teed their way to four wins and two losses in match play and came up with three seconds in the three triangular meets that they participated in. The Vikings took the conference meet. In the regional meet the Vikings placed second behind East Lansing. In the state meet, held at the University of Michigan golf course, the Vikings placed seventh. Much credit is given to Miss Hutchins who did an excellent job of coaching the boys. The returning lettermen are Gordon Carlson, James Solomonson, and Tom Watson.

The following week the Vikings traveled to Petoskey where we were defeated by a well-balanced team, 4-3. In a return match at Cadillac, Petoskey again defeated us, 5-2. Traverse again came to Cadillac and again went down to defeat, 5-0. In the last dual match of the year Cadillac defeated Mt. Pleasant by the score of 5-2. The Vikings finished fourth in the state meet. David Mills played brilliantly, and lost only the final match, when he was defeated for the state championship by DeWitt Parsons of Battle Creek. This is the first time a Cadillac player has gone so high in state tennis competition. Letters were awarded by Coach George Mills to David Mills, Vernon Johnson, Keith Caldwell, Jerry Ferris, Jerry Kenyon, James Kenyon, and John Laurent.

Ten games were played. Our boys won six and lost four. Captain and heavy hitter of the squad was Kenneth Anderson, who toiled behind the plate. Most of the squad were youngsters who showed promise and will be available for this year’s team. C.H.S. uncovered two promising pitchers in Francis “Dutch” Smre-kar who won three and lost one, and big Roger DeGraaf who pitched a no-hitter against Traverse City.

Through many of these parks run little streams, crossed by attractive bridges. Having found one of these delightful spots, Sally Houston, Guy VanderJagt, and Patsy Law pause for a brief moment of relaxation and fun. Let us leave them to their play as we discover the many fun-making activities of the girls and boys of C. H. S. — 72 — The Recreators Club turned out a varied program for the year. The purpose of the club is to promote good sportsmanship, and to further the girls’ interest in athletics. The girls are just as enthusiastic as ever, and have had a lot of fun. This year’s program started out with the formal initiation being held at Miller’s Cafe, and later in the week it was followed by the informal initiation held at the “Y”. The main activities sponsored by the “Rees” were the Christmas and Easter dances. The Dam- Rees” Have Fun The Recreators put on a candy sale to raise money. Selling the candy are Bonnie Brooks and Arita Smith. Buying the candy are Gordon Carlson and Joan VanderJagt. sel Drag was again one of their main events which turned out to be a big success. All these activities plus their wonderful fudge sales, slumber parties, hikes, hayrides, picnics, cup cake sales, sleigh rides, and basketball games were enjoyed by the peppy girls. Officers for the year were Arita Smith, president; Bonnie Brooks, vice-president; Shirley Slocum, treasurer; Elaine Long, secretary; Barbara Blaisdell, parliamentarian; Kathryn Hedquist, song leader; and Carolyn Townsend, piano accompanist.

Shown here assembling the bags of food are William Payne, Ronald Foster, Duane Sundberg, and William Nienhuis. As the Hi-Y Club reflects on 1948-49, it can look proudly over a year of activity, service, and accomplishment in carrying out its purpose. That purpose is to create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community high standards of character. The club performed many services for the school and community. Lunches were served to the local team and their opponents after each home contest. The entire membership joined in collecting Christmas baskets for needy families, and several radio programs were produced by the ’49 Hi-Y’ers. The members ushered at all high school assemblies. However, its most memorable accomplishment was the organizing and guiding of the Torch Club. To finance its many projects the club printed and distributed both basketball and football programs and sponsored numerous dancing parties. Having as their guests at various banquets the school athletic squads, entertaining the dads at a father-son gat together, holding an impressive candlelight induction ceremony, and enjoying a venison supper, were the highlights of the social calendar. Delegates were sent to Older Boys Conference, Camp Hayo-YVent-Ha, and the National Hi-Y Congress. The officers were: President Guy Vander-Jagt, Vice-President James Solomonson, Secretary William Dahlquist, Treasurer William Payne, and Adviser E. A. Babcock.

Many of the high school girls belong to the Y-Teens Club. Because there were so many, the group was divided into two parts. The juniors and seniors composed the Y-Teens, and the freshmen and sophomores were organized as the Fawns. The girls have been active in civic affairs, collecting for the cancer drive, donating to C. A. R. E., and distributing Christmas and Thanksgiving baskets. Of course, they have also had their share of parties and good times. The officers of the Y-Teens were Donna Meek, president; Ann Bachant, vice president; Adele Joynt, secretary; Catherine Price, treasurer; and Mary Jane LaMonde, sergeant-at-arms.

H. S. students compete against other schools and win honors. This year saw the beginning of a ski club in C. H. S. All the enthusiastic skiers of the high school banded together to get the club started. With the Caberfae ski area so near, skiing is the up-and-coming winter sport. The club has a membership of about fifty students, and they chose as their president, Floyd Oliver. The other officers were Vice-President Jack Hombaker, Secretary Ann Petrie, and Treasurer Kenneth Anderson. Mr. Young was the club’s adviser. One of the biggest events of the Ski Club’s first year was the inter-scholastic ski meet held at Caberfae Saturday, February 19. Traverse City, Manistee, Leelanau, and Cadillac competed. Events for both boys and girls were downhill, slalom, and cross country. Cadillac won the meet and was presented with a trophy. Individual medals were presented to the winners of each event.

H. S., plans were being made for the 1949 book. Patsy Law was chosen as editor. She and Mr. Van selected the other members of the staff. Sue Wathen, Mary Ann Paulson, and Ann Sprague were selected to get the advertising. Carolyn Westman became subscription manager, Beverly Brehm wrote copy, James Solomonson wrote sports, Joan Smith took snaps, June Henderson mounted photos, and Marilyn Arnold did the art work. Keith Harnick helped out wherever he was needed. All the copy was typed by Mary Ann Iverson, Barbara Barry, Margaret Arndt, and Barbara Jacobson. It’s been fun and it’s been work, this job of taking you across the bridge of high school days via the pages of the I og. Continued rising costs made our work no easier. However, obstacles were surmounted, the bridge has been crossed. We have tried to give you a true picture of the year in an interesting fashion. The staff is happy over the result. We think we have given you a book that will make you happy, too. Mr. Van meets with the crew who raised the money through ads and subscriptions. Standing are Mr. Van and Keith Harnick.

Everybody goes through his possessions, some look for it in their lockers. Meanwhile Mr. Babcock runs about in all directions, tearing his hair and crying out, “Who’s seen the dummy for next week’s issue of the Cadillacan?” No, it isn’t always such bedlam when the journalism class meets to put out the school newspaper. Sometimes everything is peaceful and quiet. That’s when “Jim” Pappin and “Rabbit” Carlson have gone to the printing office. Then you may find Guy Vander-Jagt and James Gibson quietly reading some of the articles that have been handed in. Earl Whaley with thoughtful mien may be hunting for just the right words to describe the tournament basketball game. Ed Nystrom, dosing peacefully on three chairs, has cast aside the 1923 edition of the school annual from which he was selecting jokes as filler. Natalie Nichols is whispering to Betty Kittle-man a juicy bit of gossip for the Eagle’s Eye. The Cadillacan, now in its third year, has become an interesting part of the life of C. H. S. It seeks to promote good school spirit by keeping the student body informed of all the things of interest about school. It tries to encourage good writing by printing poems, stories, and essays written by various students. Co-editors the first semester were James Gibson and Guy VanderJagt. James Pappin took over the job the last half of the year. The various departments were headed by members of the journalism class. Betty Kittleman was managing editor; William Nienhuis, assistant editor; Duane Sundberg, business manager; Gordon Carlson, advertising manager; Duane Wells, circulation manager; Keith Caldwell and Earl Whaley, sports editors; and Natalie Nichols, feature editor. Mr. Babcock was the adviser. 82 — On the beach at the seniors’ picnic are Donna Shepard, Lois Van Hassel, June Henderson, Barbara Podbilski, and Maureen Miles.

Last fall they could be seen marching down the football field in their bright blue and gold uniforms led by the majorettes who sported some sparkling new uniforms. Besides playing at their own home games the band journeyed to Traverse City and Ludington to display their talent. All through football and basketball season when we had pep assemblies, the band led us in school songs. Those peppy marches which they played helped us get into the school spirit we needed to win. On May 11, the entire band went to Big Rapids to participate with eighteen other bands in the annual mass band festival. Besides the regular school activities the band takes an active part in the annual festivities held in Cadillac. On Memorial Day and V.J. Day the band can be seen marching down Mitchell street. The band also participates in the celebration of music week. On March 25, eight seniors and four majorettes received letters for their hard work for the years of service spent in the band. Those who received their letters were Bonnie Brooks, James Dahlquist, Jerry Dahlquist, Hilma Finstrom, Betty Jane Kittleman, Donna Meek, Paul Pittman and Carolyn YVest-man. The four majorettes included Marilyn Braidwood, Mary Ann Iverson, Mary Ann Paulson, and Suzanne Sorensen.
