Produces Winners Tell a person long enough and often enough that he doesn’t amount to much and after a while he begins to believe it himself. Sometimes we wonder if we at C. H. S. haven’t been doing that to ourselves. We have poked fun at our old building and told ourselves how inadequate it is. We have lamented the study hall between the gym and the music room, and all the other things that are wrong with our school, until it is a wonder that we can do anything right at C. H. S. So the Log this year is calling on students of Cadillac to see the good things about our school. As we scan the pages of the book, let’s remember that we have produced a number of winners. Twice in the last few years we have been conference football winners. Last year’s and this year’s basketball teams were championship outfits. The Log has been winning Medalist and All-American awards continously since 1943. Students in English classes have had their poems published in high school anthologies, and won state honors in an essay contest. Viking cheer leaders are making good as college cheer leaders. Our dramatic stars are known for the excellency of their productions. One of the outstanding cross country runners in college ranks is a graduate of C. H. S. Scholasti¬ cally our school is on the accredited list of the University of Michigan and the North Central Association of Secondary Schools. We’ve been 4 :r To Mr. Shankland and Mr. Mills We Dedicate the 1950 Log Twenty-five years ago there occured some changes in the administra¬ tion of the Cadillac schools. Mr. B. C. Shankland, who for five years had been principal of C. H. S., was promoted to superintendent. Mr. George H. Mills, coach of champion football teams, was appointed high school principal. Much of the winning spirit with which our students have been and are imbued must be credited to the work of these two men. For a quarter century’s effort in our behalf we honor them. May they continue to guide us for many more years. George H.

' ' the proof of winning in the - CLASSROOMS Book Reports for English Classes The freshmen and sophomores receive their English training from Eunice Malleaux. She re¬ ceived her B. S. degree from Northwestern Univer¬ sity and has done graduate work at the University of Michigan. The sophomore class has Mrs. Malleaux as its adviser. The winning place on Mrs. Malleaux’s pastime list is travel. Teaching sophomore and senior English, fresh¬ man Latin, and advising the junior class, keep Loraine Worden busy. She received her A. B. degree from Hope College and has done post-graduate work at the University of Michigan. When Mrs. Worden was asked what her winning hobby was she said. “Knitting, reading, or playing the piano is my ho pby; atfpording to the mood which is winning Eunice Malleaux Hiram Becker, the popular Cadillac High foot¬ ball and golf coach, is a man well known aboi school. Mr. Becker holds a B. S. degree from Central Michigan College of Education and he tealehes English. The sophomore class has Mr. Becker as its adviser. His winning pastime is talking foot¬ ball twenty-fours hours a day, 365 days a year. His secondary pastimes are eating and wearing large shoes. Ila L. Minier is the librarian of Cadillac High School. She received her A. B. degree from Central Michigan College of Education and has done gradu¬ ate work at the University of Denver. Miss Minier is the junior class adviser. Reading, believe it or not, has the winning spot on her list. Hiram R. Becker 11a L. Minier To learn to read and enjoy what we read; to learn to express ourselves in English that is correct, accurate, and pungent; to learn to appreciate the literature of our own times and that of the past; those are the tasks of the students as they assemble in the library and English classes. Paul Pittman displays the model of the Elizabethan theatre which he made for Mrs. Worden’s senior English class. Fac¬ ing him is Marie Labbe and leaning over her shoulder is Duane Leazenby. In the background are Ann Petrie, Carolyn Town¬ send, Ruth Robbins , Adele Joynt, Robert Potter, and George Shankland. — 12 — Draw All Students to the Library Reading in the library are James Canfield, Rex Van Natter, Hilrna Holm- berg, Mervin Falor, and William Rice. ffl ■ : : Meril Hodgson consults the catalog.

Top Left: Lois Johnson tells her speech class how to make an apple pie. Watching her are Dale Sundstrom, Connie Lamphere, and Deloris Largent. Top Right: Betty Plank concocts a Dagwood sandwich. Hoping for a bite are Trevor Nelson, Mildred Moomey, Evelyn Merritt, and Ann Pastotnik. Below Left: Lois Pierson shows William Johnson and Julia Sluiter how to make a cake. Below Right: Jack Garber uses Dale Gray as model to demonstrate the proper technique in polishing shoes. — 14 — Drivers and Fluent Speakers The man who should have shattered nerves is Morris Carpenter, instructor in driver training. Mr. Carpenter received his B. S. degree from Western Michigan College of Education and attended Par¬ son’s Business College. The junior class rates first on his lis t because he is their adviser. From his name, “Carpenter,” you should guess his win¬ winning pastime; it’s building a house, and he’s done it. Beside teaching speech to freshmen, sopho¬ mores, and juniors and teaching play production, M. W. Van Oostenburg finds himself busy acting as adviser for the Log, directing the annual junior- senior play, and being a member of the assembly committee. Mr. Van received his A. B. degree from Hope College and his M. A. degree from the Uni¬ versity of Michigan. Directing plays, dreaming up ways to improve the Log, and following the exploits of the Detroit Tigers, all have an equal chance of gaining the winning spot on Mr. Van’s list. Morris R. Carpenter M. W. Van Oostenburg Training ' in speech is training for public life. The ability to be able to think out and ex¬ press ones ideas so that they can be easily understood by anyone is of great importance. Speech training is a required subject for freshmen, sophomores, and juniors, who, after struggling through the training, have a better knowledge of how to be a winner in public through speech. Driver training is a course to teach one how to become a help rather than a menace to the public through careful and considerate driving. In becoming a good driver, one must know not just the mechanics of a car but also the rules and courtesies of the road. Mr. Caipenter explains the mysteries that lie under the hood. In the picture are Jack Ostrander, Diane Workman, Mr. Carpenter, and Beth Wilson. Mathematicians and Scientists When one hears the words, test-tubes, experiments, microscopes, or some other similar word, he knows that the science department is being discussed. Again, whenever one hears the words, slide rules, equations, theorems, or logarithms, he realizes that he is hearing terms used in mathematics. In general science the students learn the basic trend in the science field, while in the other science subjects, they branch out in plant and animal life. In chemistry the young scientists find out about the chemical changes in matter, and in phy¬ sics they study the physical changes. The future mathematicians spend many hours solv¬ ing equations, learning theorems, or working problems for general math, plane geometry, algebra, or trigonometry, all of which help to develop their reasoning power. The math and science subjects call for much hard work and concentration, but they offer much encour¬ agement because there is such an open field for further development. Classes in mathematics are taught by Beatrice Hutchins, who received her A. B. degree from West¬ ern Michigan College of Education and has done graduate study at the University of Michigan. Miss Hutchins is the freshman class adviser, Y-Teen Fawns adviser, and is a member of the assembly committee. Being a loyal sports fan, Miss Hutchins declares her winning pastime is being a spectator at football and basketball games. Mary S. Johnson, teacher of general mathe¬ matics and algebra, received her B. S. d egree from Michigan State College. She also studied at Central Michigan College and the University of Michigan. She is the Y-Teen Fawns adviser. As of now Miss Johnson says that her sixth hour algebra class is her winning pastime. Edward A. Babcock Mary Vilas Beatrice J. Hutchins Mary S. Johnson Having attended Ferris Institute, received his A. B. fi ' om Central Michigan College, and studied at the University of Michigan, Edward Babcock should be well qualified to teach chemistry, physios, algebra, and journalism. Mr. “B” is the adviser for the Cadillacan, Hi-Y, and Torch Club. He claims that he finds his winning pastime at the C. Y. R. A. Teaching general science and biology way up on the top floor, is Miss Mary Vilas. She received her B. S. degree from Central Michigan College of Edu¬ cation and is working on her master’s degree at the University of Michigan. Miss Vilas is the senior class and Pep Club adviser. Hiking is a winning pastime for Miss Vilas any time of the year. — 16 — Duane Arnold combines art and geometry to draw a Christmas picture of geo¬ metric figures. Standing are Keith Ide, Duane Arnold, Rex Ostrander. Seated are Gor¬ don Gunnerson, Robert Hol¬ ly, Miss Hutchins, Lona Pow¬ ers, Edna Bowen.

Below left: Engrossed in their chemistry experiment are Jack Blaisdell, Dick Brehm, and Gordon Van Wieren. Below right: How to plant to prevent soil erosion is important knowledge for students in northern Michigan. Work¬ ing on such a problem in Miss Vilas’ biology class are Janet Dow, Lois Garr,ow, Duane Eley, Jerry Russ, Allan Elenbaas, Dale Stevens, and Phyllis Worden. 1 I I S i I -17- Above: Kenneth Hodges leads the physical education class in setting up exercises. Left: Away up and out of sight goes the hall as these girls take part in a basketball game in the physical education class. Clear Minds and Trim Bodies When the ceiling in the assembly room vibrates up and down, you know that the phy¬ sical education classes are taking their calisthenics or, maybe, playing a hard game of bas¬ ketball. All freshmen, sophomores, and juniors are required to take gym where they learn how to keep their minds clear and their bodies trim. By being a player on a team in these classes one learns how to cooperate with others. Teaching civics and physical education, advising the Tri-Hi-Y, and sponsoring intra-mural activities keep Mary Fica busy. She received her B. S. de¬ gree from Central Michigan College of Education. Miss Fica is very fond of sports and states that summer sports, swimming, and tennis take the winning spot ,on her pastime list. The man who helps the boys build fine phy¬ siques is Richard C. Young. He teaches physical education, American history, health and sociology; he coaches the reserve football and basketball teams and the tennis team. Michigan State College is where Mr. Young received his B. S. degree. He is the Ski Club adviser and senior class adviser. Any sports activity is a winner on Mr. Young’s list. Mary Fica Richard C. Young —18— The commercial department received some new machines. Looking them over and trying them out are Ellen Sommerfeldt, Petronilla Leyanna, Corabelle Hayes, Leona Johnson, Mary Lou Van Ho,ose, Mildred Kel¬ ler, and Marilyn Lamphere. Speed and Accuracy Pay off It takes many hours of concentration to be able to pound a typewriter correctly, balance an account accurately, or read and write shorthand efficiently. Accuracy and efficiency are the key words in the commercial department, and all the students strive to obtain them. A teacher who seems very strict and business¬ like is Frieda Dell. She teaches typing, business training, and business law. She received her B. S. degree from Michigan State Normal College at Ypsilanti. In her leisure time Mrs. Dell enjoys reading. The faculty financial adviser for the school bank is Rae E. Johnston. He graduated from the Uni¬ versity of Michigan where he received his B. S. and M. A. degrees. He also attended Ferris Institute. Frieda V. Dell Bookkeeping and business training are the subjects he teaches. He claims that reading is the pastime that wins top place on his list. Typing and shorthand classes are under the direction of Alice Kenaga. She attended Ferris In¬ stitute, Michigan State Teachers College, and re¬ ceived her B. S. degree from Central Michigan College of Education. When it comes to a pastime, Mrs. Kenaga states that gardening is a winner in her eye. Rae E. Johnston Alice Kenaga -20- Left: Harvest time finds the girls busy canning and today they are canning pears. The four in the foreground are Betty Smith, Pat Milewski, Marjorie Sorensen, and Sonja Kedroski. Right: Making a desk in wood shop is Schulyer Butler. Watching him is Don Moffit. In the background are Gordon Willis and Russell Brehm. Homemakers of Tomorrow The students of today will be the owners and managers of the homes tomorrow. To properly train them for their responsibilities, courses in home economics and shop are offered. In the shop the boys learn how to use drawing instruments correctly and to make things out of wood and metal. In the “home ec” classes the girls learn to cook, sew, and acquire the training necessary to become good homemakers. The metal shop boys made small tools. Shown at the forge (left to right) are Ed Keller, Dick Shearer, Orland Scarbrough, Harry Hagstrom, and John Shearer. One cooking assignment the boys’ class really enjoyed was making apple pie. In the upper row are Robert Nelson, Dale Olson, and James Lehr. Below them are Charles Burke, James Fender, and William iLovley. — 21 — Machine shop and advanced wood shop are un¬ der the strong hand of Francis Hiscock. He has attended Wayne University, University of Michigan, and Western Michigan College of Education, where he earned his B. S. degree. The junior class has Mr. Hiscock at its adviser. His idea of winning pastimes are hunting and fishing and building things. A man who keeps himself quite well hidden is Lynn L. Kingsley, who teaches industrial arts. Mr. Kingsley received his B. S. degree from the Stout Institute, and he also studied at the University of Minnesota. On his list he states outdoor sports, hunting, and fishing take the winning spot. Eunice M. Kennedy Pearl Oliver Francis Hiscock Lynn L. Kingsley Eunice Kennedy is a new teacher in our home¬ making department this year. She holds a B. S. degree from Michigan State College and has also attended University of Michigan. Acting as fresh¬ man class adviser, she finds herself busy. Even though she is learned in home activities, Mrs. Ken¬ nedy says that hunting and fishing are her winning pastimes. Another new teacher this year is Pearl Oliver. She received her B. S. degree from Central Michi¬ gan College of Education and also studied at Michigan State College and University of Colorado. English and homemaking seem to occupy most of her time. For a pastime Miss Oliver says that traveling is her winner. Jerry Danhof (center) is sanding the bookstand he has made in shop class. At his left is Rex Van Natter; at the right, William Snider. Connie Lamphere has made herself a dress, but needs help from Mary Jane McGarr in pinning the back. — 22 — Languages and Social Studies Dana Brandenburg Arland Martin Janies Nesbitt Richard Schwichtenberg Dana Brandenburg, one of our busy teachers, is the Dean of Girls, freshman class adviser, Y- Teen Club adviser, and the cheerleading squad ad¬ viser. She also teaches Latin and French. Miss Brandenburg received her A. B. degree from Kala¬ mazoo College and her M. A. degree from the University of Michigan. Reading is her winning pastime. With a B. S. degree from Western Michigan College of Education and an M. A. degree from the University of Michigan Arland Martin is teach¬ ing United States government and history. Much of his time is occupied by being Dean of Boys and adviser for the freshman class. This fall he coached the reserve football team while Coach Young was recuperating, and in the spring he coaches the baseball team. An active man around the school is James Nesbitt, who teaches American history, is assistant football coach, and head coach in basketball and track. To add to this busy schedule he is the senior class adviser. Mr. Nesbitt received his B. S. degree from Central Michigan College of Education. When asked what his winning pastime was, Mr. Nesbitt remarked “hunting,” but he didn’t specify what kind. Seniors are guided through economics and juniors through English by Richard J. Schwichten¬ berg. His alma mater is State Teachers College of Milwaukee where he received his B. S. degree. “Schwichty” is the adviser of the Junior Sportsman Club. His broad opinion of things is shown by his broad choice of winning pastimes: fishing, hunting, reading, and travel. ! The students leam how to vote by taking part in a regular city election. Right: Applications for ballots are filled out in the same way as done by the adults. Below left: Oda Nielson and Marguerite Johnson emerge from the voting booths. Below right: John Grice re¬ ceives the ballots from the voters and Donna Gilbert deposits them in the ballot box. — 23 — Catering to Artistic Natures Clyde J. Flickinger Joseph Ridolph The artist of our teaching staff is Clyde Flickinger. His B. S. degree was received from Centra] Michigan College of Education, his M. A. degree from University of Michigan, and he also studied at the University of Colorado. Besides teaching art Mr. Flickinger teaches junior English and is the sophomore class adviser. Color photo¬ graphy and—you guessed it—painting (oils and water) are Mr. Flickinger’s winning pastimes. Our music classes, vocal and instrumental, are under Joseph Ridolph’s direction. Mr. Ridolph re¬ ceived his B. E. degree from Northern Illinois Col¬ lege, his M. A. from the University of Michigan. He has done post-graduate work at Central Michi¬ gan College. He is a senior class and “Treble Clefs” adviser. Boating, picnics, and concerts are all winning pastimes on Mr. Ridolph’s list. j As one looks about the halls of C.H.S. he may be looking at a great musician of the future or a budding artist. In the art classes and in the band and chorus classes, much is done to bring out the creativeness of a person. The band and chorus students have learned many different types of songs, and in the art classes a wide variety of work has been done to de¬ velop the artistic side of the students. — 24 — Doris Kardell Corine Baker A great number of tasks are performed in the superintendent’s and principle’s offices. Miss Doris Kardell and Miss Lucille Bourrassa are the busy young ladies in Mr. Shankland’s office, while Miss Corinne Baker is Mr. Mill’s secretary.

Standing are Steve Fowler, Marion Cass, and Jerry Russ. Kneeling are Mary Jane LaMonde, Loraine Moote, and Ann Petrie. Somewhere in the roaring flames at the Lin¬ coln Field pep meeting, was the effigy of our ancient rival, Traverse City. The Viking fans give out with a “Yea, Cadillac.” — 52 — I Imagine that! The first team builds up a commanding lead and then takes to the bench while the reserves battle Traverse City. Captain Tom Watson (52) doesn’t look easy on that bench. Coach Dick Young tapes up John Laurent’s damaged lower lip. Happy over the progress of the game are the drum major¬ ettes. Front and center is Joanne Smrekar, thrilled to pieces over the star playing of her two football brothers, “Dutch” and “Bill.” New this year was the coffee and hot dog booth. Boy, did that go over big on those chilly evenings! — 53 — Football Players Win Every Game Captain Tom Watson Modest and almost shy, Tom Watson seldom held the limelight during a football game. He was always in the center of the play either making holes for the backs to plow through, or stopping the thrusts of the opponents. His value as a player is shown by his selection as center on the Detroit Free Press aid state third team. 1 Top Row: Coach James Nesbitt, Bert Zagens, Jack Dillon, Francis Smrekar, Dean Willis, Donald Telgenhoff, Duane Eley, Coach Hiram Becker, Will¬ iam Smrekar, William McGarr, Anthony Stayer, Phillip Schenden, Oren Witherspoon, James Canfield, Edward Carlson, Richard Thomas.

The back at left (13) is Jack Hornbaker. Harold Moffit (79) and George Shankland (73) are shown making the hole for Fettig’s plunge. VIKINGS TAKE OPENER The Cadillac Vikings opened their sea¬ son successfully by defeating the Reed City Coyotes. The attack was spearheaded by Ulander who punched over three times. John Laurent scored on a pass while Dick Jones converted three points by place kicks. The Coyotes threatened the Vikings only once. In the last quarter they pushed to our ten, but were stopped there. The line blocking is what opened the road for the backs. Gordon Willis looked very good on defense at the backer-up spot. VIKINGS SWAMP FREMONT The team really gave the crowd some¬ thing to yell about when they ran all over the Fremont Packers. Lead by the excellent signal calling of Francis “Dutch” Smrekar the racing backs crossed the goal line seven times. Ulander strutted over four times while “Dutch” Smrekar, Hornbaker, and Zagers accounted for the other three. On a kick-off run back Ulander raced sixty- nine yards with beautiful blocking for a marker at the opening of the second half. The team was really clicking, and it was no trouble at all to score. The Vikings were a little afraid of the Packers because of the almost identical score of 45 to 0 by which the Vikings of ’48 beat them. VIKINGS TAKE TROJANS Many of the old timers around Cadillac claimed that the ’49 football team was the Ulander skirts the end against Traverse City. The speedy Emerson made a dive for Len but missed him. — 56 — On this play Ulander went for a touchdown against Ludington. Dean Van Natter (88) took out three men on the play. Note the fierce look on Phil Schenden’s (23) face. best team they had ever seen after watching the Viking-Trojan game. The Vikings were really on the ball. The blocking was hard and precise, the running was extraordinary with the boys hitting with all their might. The top condition of the Vikings kept the Trojans down, never to get a full breath. The scoring was evenly divided as the Vikings showed that they could hit hard at every point. Bert Zagers and F. Smrekar tallied for two markers apiece while “Dyna¬ mo” Fettig and “Lu” Ulander each pushed over once. The kick-off play paid off in this game, too, as Zagers flashed ninety yards for six points. Captain Watson, big John Laurent, Hodges, and Moffit were the boys who really gave Traverse a rough time. CADILLAC BEATS MT. PLEASANT In this game the Vikings were greatly out-weighed on the line. The average was twenty-two pounds per man. The hard and fast charging of the Cadillac line is what beat Mt. Pleasant. The first quarter ended scoreless and it looked as if it would be a real battle, but early in the second quarter Ulander intercepted an Oiler pass and gal¬ loped across for the first marker. This started the scoring as Hornbaker followed up twice and Zagers raced over once. This game was the first Oiler battle the Vikings had won since 1933. Left: Bert Zagers is off on one of hi© long runs against Traverse City. Bight: Reed City has Horn- baker pretty well bottled up. — 57 — It’s Ulander again around right end. This time it’s against Reed City. PETOSKEY FLOPS Many writers slated the Petoskey game as the one to see as both teams were unde¬ feated, and in state ratings the Northmen were fourth and the Vikings sixth. Many people said the contest could be determined by a flip of a coin. Once again the Viking warriors smashed their way to victory. Ulander really put on an exhibition of open field running along with Zagers, who ran eighty yards for a touchdown on the kick-off play. The total tallies were three for Ulander, two for Zag¬ ers, and one for F. Smrekar on a quarterback sneak. Dick Jones did an excellent job of kick¬ ing the extra points as six out of seven went between the uprights. The Northmen sucked the Vikings out of position twice and both times set up touchdowns. MANISTEE HOMECOMING SPOILED In this game the charging line really paid off as linemen Watson and Hodges each made a touchdown by hard charging. Watson recovered a blocked kick while Hod¬ ges recovered a fumble in the end zone. Fettig really gave his all as he was responsi¬ ble for a good deal of the ground yards gained. Again it’s George Shankland (73) and Harold Moffit (79) who are doing a good job of blocking. Fettig went through the wide hole to score the touch down and even the count with Big Rapids at 6-6. 58 — Fettig gets caught by Fraser of Traverse City. The Viking taking Kramer out of the play is Hornbaker. The Vikings’ aerial attack gave Laurent and Hornbaker a chance to do some fancy pass catching. Stevens, G. Willis, and Stayer did some nice receiving too. On the throw¬ ing end it was Ulander, F. Smrekar, and Zagers. Cadillac piled up thirteen first downs with seven for Manistee. ORIOLES’ FEATHERS PLUCKED Zagers made a name for himself by scoring four times and assisting in another. He really had the go in him as no one seemed to be able to catch him. There were ten other Vikings blocking with all their might making those runs possible. The game was very definitely one-sided as Ludington did not score until the starting eleven were out of the game. Fettig tallied twice for the Vikings while F. Smrekar and Stayer each went over once. BIG RAPIDS THREATENS In this hard fought game the Vikings really had to dig in to win the conference championship. The Cardinals scored in the first quarter, and it was the first time all season that the Vikings were behind. Cadil¬ lac made a terrific drive in the second quar¬ ter and t : ed the score when Fettig went over Left: It’s Zagers again showing his phenomenal speed in the Traverse game. Right: Another wide hole for Fettig to go through in the Ludington game. Ray Barrand of Big Rapids didn’t get very far after Fet- tig got him in a firm embrace. for six points. In the third quarter Cadillac got a break by a Cardinal fumble on the Big Rapids seventeen yard line. Zagers carried the ball over from there and Jones made the extra point. The fourth quarter was an unsuccessful aerial attack and the game ended at 13-6. Thus Cadillac became North Central Class B Conference champ¬ ions. VIKINGS WIN FINAL GAME On November 10 Alma played host to a very proud Cadillac team. For many boys it was the last football game so they gave every ounce of energy, and it was just too much for the Alma Wildcats. Everybody ran hard. Ulander and Hornbaker upheld their reputations by scoring twice each. It was no trouble for “Dutch” Smrekar, “Leo” Fettig, and “Stoop” Laurent to tally once each. Richard Jones, the season’s only serious casualty, was injured in this game as he incurred a leg fracture. By winning the ’49 Vikings made a new record as no other Cadillac team had ever won nine games in one season. The flames crackled as the students put on a giant pep meeting at Lincoln Field in preparation for the Ludington game. — 60 — Top Row: Edward Foster, John Kunkel, Gordon Barnes, Edwin Keller, Fredrick Lamb, Ricihard Shear¬ er, Jerry Morrison, David Fowler, Richar d Hag-berg, Dale Olson, Robert Faunce.

Reserves Win Their Share Coach Young led his reserve team to an undefeated season this year with a record of four wins and two ties. The boys who saw the most action were: center, David Fowler; guards, Ed (Foster, Dick Hagberg, David Hodges; tackles, Ed Keller, Richard Shearer, and Ted Kelly. James Meek and Jack Kun¬ kel were the ends. James Morrison, Gordon Barnes, Dave VanPelt, James Sandburg, and Dale Olson rounded out the backfield. On the line the hard blocking and tackling of Ed Foster was especially outstanding, with the rest of the boys doing their share. The backfield featured the high-scoring of Van Pelt, the hard running of fullback Morrison, the signal calling and passing of Barnes, and the tricky running of Sandburg. The team was held to a tie by Mesick and Reed City. The tie with Reed City was later avenged by a 21 to 0 score.

By doing this the Vikings proved that they were not mere¬ ly a flash in the pan outfit during the 1949 season, but a power to be dealt with in the coming years of basketball in the north. During the 1950 season the Vikings won twelve games while losing three. Weeks before the opening of the court season, the sport fans of Cadillac High School were dubious of the Vikings’ chances of reaching the heights of last year’s team. After winning five in a row, three of which were conference games, the Vikings were conceded the conference title by the fans; but Traverse City, Cadillac’s arch rival, de¬ feated us on the Trojans’ home floor by the smarting score of 34-29. In the next game Coach Nesbitt’s boys bounced back to win the next five out of six conference games, losing only to Big Rapids after we had al¬ ready clinched the title. After a very excit¬ ing and successful season, w e played Petoskey in the tournament. This proved to be a very thrilling game with the North¬ men coming out on top by the score of 41-37. The Vikings were invincible at home and nearly unbeatable away. In our own small gym we were second to none; and after find¬ ing the range on the larger, out-of-town floors, Coach Nesbitt’s boys were almost as potent there as at home. The very able coaching of “Whispering Jim” Nesbitt, the starting Viking quintet composed of Captain Laurent, Barnes, Dan¬ hof, Ulander, and Zagers, the excellent reserve strength, and teamwork, all combined to produce the secret winning formula for your conference championship. — 62 — SCORES Cadillac _ 33 Alpena _30 Cadillac _39_ Ludington 31 Cadillac __42 Mt.

Reserves Show Promise The reserve team showed lots of promise for coming years by winning eight of their twelve games. The little Vikings hold at least one victory over every team they play¬ ed except Traverse City. The Traverse Reserves proved to be too much for the Cadillac boys this year, but they are looking forward to playing them again next year. Coach Young did a very fine job with the reserves, keeping the morale of the team high at all times and giving the boys a good foundation for future years. “Chief” Moore was the scoring punch of the reserves up until the last few games when he was moved up to the varsity. James Sandberg and Kenneth John showed lots of ability in hitting the baskets during the re¬ maining games. There were eight fresh¬ men on the squad this year so the reserve squad of ’51 has fine prospects of being a good outfit. SCORES Cadillac . 43 Mt.

They won every meet they took part in except two, the conference meet in which they took third and the regional in which they finished second, right behind Ludington. strong Mt. Pleasant team and a fine Lud¬ ington outfit. The regional was again held in Cadillac. The Vikings took a very close second to Ludington in a meet which was not decided until after the next-to-the-last event was Cadillac opened the season by beating Manton and Mesick in a triangular meet at Lincoln Field. They defeated Traverse City, Big Rapids, and Alpena. In the conference meet at Traverse City the Vikings took a good third behind a very over.

They lost two to Petoskey in medal. At the conference meet held in Traverse City, the boys took second and in the regional at Mt. Pleasant they placed fourth. They fell in behind Alma and East Lansing for a last place in a tri-school meet. Gordon Carlson, Tom Watson, James Solomonson, Floyd Oliver, and Dick Williams were coached by Hiram Becker who took over for his first season with the team.

Nine were finally accepted by Coach Young. Eight matches were played with single opponents and Cadillac won them all. We also won a three way meet with Traverse City and Mt. Pleasant. In the regional we took second, being nosed out by Petoskey by a quarter of a point. In the state meet Laurent and Jerry Kenyon were defeated. Caldwell won his first match but lost the second.

The team, under the direction of Coach Martin, had a fairly good year as it won five out of nine games. The squad was captained by Kenneth Anderson for the second consecutive year. “Kenny,” first string catcher and heavy hitter, edged out Roger De Graaf, big right hand pitcher, for the best batting average. De Graaf had the best pitching record, winning three, losing one. The outlook for this year appears to be very good although Captain Anderson has grad¬ uated and De Graaf has moved away. William Smrekar, second string catcher last year, looks like the one to fill Anderson’s spot behind the plate. “Dutch” Smrekar, strike-out King in ’49, will probably do most of the pitching this spring.

Daily she added new snapshots to draw the students’ attention. Watching her here are Verda Frye, Lona Powers, Lucille Fettig, iand Richard Morton. The Log Wins Honors The Log has done its share in upholding the winning tradition, of C. H. S. With seven successive All-American awards and six Medalist awards we have a record to be proud of. Last fall we were given all-state honors at the M. S. C. journalism day conference. Attempting to carry on that winning record meant hard work for the 1950 staff. We have done our best to recall for you pleasant memories of another year at school. Heading the staff were Doreen Jantz as editor; Adele Joynt and Margery Servis, advertising managers; Barbara Petrie, circulation mana¬ ger. Mr. Van was the adviser.

Cadillacan Gives The News The Cadillacan began its fourth year of publication with Kenneth Forsman as editor. His staff was composed of the other twenty-three members of the journalism class. A subscription campaign was launched at the beginning of year, and two parties were sponsored by the staff to raise funds necessary to make the Cadillacan a bigger and better school paper. A new feature of the Cadillacan was the radio broadcast, “Cadillacan on the Air,” every Tuesday night with Phil Schenden in charge. Ann Sprague held the position of managing editor, and her assistant was Hazel Foster. Other department heads were Phil Settles, business manager; Diane Workman, circulation; Gordon Willis and John Kelly, advertising; Harold Van Natter and Lennart Ulander, sports; Radell Nelson, features. Mr. Babcock was the adviser.

One Wild Night” at the Lyric A hypochondriac who thinks he has only one night to live can really stir up a hornets’ nest when he decides to cut loose and throw caution to the winds. That’s what George Shank- land did in “One Wild Night,” the annual junior-senior play at the Lyric, February 22 and 23. Heavy comedy roles were carried by Kenneth Forsman and Doreen Jantz as the butler and maid. Barbara Payne played the exuberantly healthy girl friend, and Mary Jane Mc¬ Garr the very sickly aunt. Others in the two casts were Douglas Lund, Norma Brehm, Dean Van Natter, Jack Dillon, Loraine Moote, Kent Davey, Harold Moffit, Nadine Lamb, Patricia Gilchrist, Carolyn Townsend, Margaret Milton, Connie LaChonce, Donna Gilbert, Robert Potter, and Richard Gallivan. The play was directed by Mr. Van with Karin Nelson as prompter. Harold Moffit and Dick Olney were the stage managers, while Ruth Ann Robbins and Carole Munson handled the properties. Miss Vilas and Durwood Brehm acted as business managers for the play, which drew 1070 patrons.

Pic¬ tured here are William Rice, Rex Van Natter, Robert Gray, William McGarr, Louis Fivenson, Tom Watson, and Mr. Shankland. The Hi-Y Club began its activities for the 1949-50 year by bringing into the club the new members with the traditional formal initiation ceremony. This was followed by one of the fam¬ ous Hi-Y banquets in honor of the new members. They have progressed with a lot of hard work and much activity to a point where they can say that they have had a very successful year. Some of the many activities of the club are the printed programs for both the football and basketball games, playing host to the Vikings and their op¬ ponents to a free lunch after each home game, a large pancake supper, and many other worth¬ while projects. To compensate for their hard work the boys had many stag suppers, slumber parties, and outings. The officers were: President Kenneth Fors¬ man, Vice-President Robert Gray, Secretary Tom Watson, Treasurer William McGarr, and Adviser E. A. Babcock. — 90 — Top row: Peggy Umbarger, Ann Sprague, Janet Anderson, Nancy Willis, Claudette Karcher, Shirley Slocum, Patricia MacGonnell, Eleanor Ashbaugh.

The Tri-Hi-Y, which formerly was the Recre¬ ators Club, had many activities this year. The purpose of the club is to create, maintain, and extend high standards of Christian character. ‘Pure thoughts, pure words, pure actions” is their slogan with red, white, and blue, exemplifying sacrifice, purity, and loyalty, as their colors. Starting the year off, a banquet featuring a candlelight service was held at the C. Y. R. A. for the new members. Among the many activities that the girls participated in were pot-luck sup¬ pers, slumber parties, treasure hunts, cup-cake sales and baked goods sales. They sent a box of toys to a backwoods school in the south. The Christmas season was made gayer by the big Christmas dance held at the C. Y. R. A. The club was led by Carolyn Townsend, presi¬ dent; Marilyn Lamphere, vice-president; Elaine Long, secretary; Joyce Nystrom. treasurer; Kathrine Hedquist, parliamentarian; Hazel Fos¬ ter, song leader; Gail Burke, chaplain; Janet Paulson, historian. — 91 — Recreators Become Tri-Hi-Y The Tri-Hi-Y girls polished the cups and trophies that our winning athletic teams have won.

Sitting on the steps is Mary Jane LaMonde. The others (1 to r) are Mary Jane McGarr, Dema Trowbridge, and Joanne Smith. The Y-Teens have many enthusiastic mem¬ bers. Having as their aim, “Service and good will to school and community,” they accomplished several projects. They helped the polio and Red Feather drives, the distribution of Christmas baskets, and the Hallowe’en party at the C. Y. R. A. They also printed basketball schedules, and had lots of fun (and water) cleaning the stage walls. The father-daughter and mother-daughter tea will never be forgotten. Many successful sales and dances were held. A novel idea was initiated at the high school when the Y-Teens made suckers with funny candy faces. Their coronation dance, at which the members of our championship basketball team were crowned was a huge success. The officers of the club were: President Ruth Ann Robbins, Vice President Marion Cass, Secretary Vera Anderson, Treasurer Margery Servis, Sergeant-at-arms Amelia Carlson, and Adviser Miss Brandenburg. — 92 — Top row: lone Braidwood, Maxine Bogner, Iva Lou Ostrander, Mary Lou Kennedy, Marilyn Corwin, Jean Chapman, Carolyn Nichols, Karolyn LaMonde.

The girls participated in various activities; such as, singing Christmas carols at the hospital, giving clothes and food at Christmas time, put¬ ting on dances at the youth center, having gay social meetings, and becoming more interested in national Y-Teens. Their two big projects of the year were putting on a spring carnival with the Torch Club and also a clean up campaign in the high school. The climax to their busy year was a large banquet held partly for initiation. In regard to friendship the freshmen and sophomore girls have become well acquainted through the club. The advisers were Miss Mary Johnson and Miss Beatrice Hutchins. The officers were Georgia Showalter, president; Joan James, vice president; Helen Edwards, secretary; Carolyn Price, treasurer; Nancy Potter, parliamentarian. — 93 — Fawns Are Future Y-Teens The Fawns put on a candy sale to raise funds for club activities.

S. is the Junior Hi-Y, known as the Torch Club. This youth organization is composed entirely of freshmen and sophomore boys. The principles and ideals of the club are similar to those of the Hi-Y. Every Torch Club boy looks forward to the day when he will be able to join the older boys’ club. The officers elected to lead the boys in their activities were President Robert Dahlgren, Vice-President Joe Zakrajsek, Secretary David Van Pelt, and Treasurer Kenneth John. Edward Foster was elected Sergeant-at- Arms. Throughout the year the boys had their weekly meeting. They also took part in numerous activities. . In the fall of ’49 they had a marvelous banquet at the youth center. They prepared a Christmas basket for a needy family in Cadillac. They sponsored dances at the “Y” and helped in other activities. All in all, the boys had a busy year and much fun. It is hoped that a Torch club may be formed again next year. Mr. Edward Babcock is their adviser. — 94 — It was a jolly crowd at the “Old Black Magic” party at the C. Y. R. A. on Hallowe’en.

IN AMERICA, there’s no law to limit your chances. OF EQUAL IMPORTANCE to that freedom is the opportunity that lies ahead for you. Opportunity to climb to a top job, or to go into business foi youiself. In countries where business is run by the government, people must work where, when, and how they’re told. AS AN EMPLOYEE, you 11 have the right to change your job any time you see a chance for advancement. As an employer, you’ll have the opportunity to build as big a business as you’re able. IF YOU GO INTO BUSINESS for yourself, you’ll soon learn that op¬ portunity is a two-way deal. Only as your workers and your customers benefit will your business be able to grow and prosper. YOU’LL ALSO LEARN the importance of sound management_if your firm is going to earn the reasonable profits it must in order to stay in business. For profits are the very backbone of American progress—your best guarantee of opportunity. SO WHETHER YOU work for someone else or become your own boss, business profits will always play a big part in your welfare—because the reasonable profits earned by industry pay for research and expansion that bring more jobs, more security, and better living for everyone. : ' 7i fc l V •• -r I r •� I MALLEABLE IRON COMPANY — 125 — — 126 —- Autograph £ t «i‘ 1 o -V r v 1 , ,V ' ’ e A ' f - • -o ,j V.
