It realized that it was to produce the last Log whose locale was to be laid in the worn halls of old C.H.S. For many years the student body has been growing. For some years extra space was available to care for increased enrollments. Gradually, however, the student body became too large. A building designed to serve about three hundred students can hardly accommodate the present seven hundred. Like a healthy boy outgrowing his clothes, so the student body outgrew the old building. Last summer construction of a new building was begun, and its completion is anticipated before another high school class graduates. Memories of “old C.H.S.” will go with us always. The things of which we once complained will, when seen in retrospect, take on the golden aura of hallowed memory. Some day we shall look back on the assemblies when students sat three in a double seat, and we shall call them the “good old days.” We shall recall the whistling transoms as amusing interludes of boring class periods. Some day we shall laugh at our children all snug and warm in their automatically heated classrooms, and we shall brag about the times we wore our overcoats to classes because the wintry winds whistled through the cracks around the old casement windows. Yes, progress has come to Cadillac. We’re doffing the old and donning the new. We’re leaving the temple of learning on the side of the hill for a new, modem, architect’s dream on the flats of Lake Cadillac’s shores. It had to come; we just couldn’t make the old walls bulge any farther. But please pardon the staff of ’51 as we shed one last tear and fire one final salute to the honor and glory of old C.H.S., the cherished ivy-covered home of our pleasant high school days. '7=1-A The bids are opened for the building of the new school. From left to right are Board members Clyde Tiley, Walter Kelly, Henry Kryger, John English, Robert Kendall, City Clerk William Phillips, and the architect, Mr. Pardee. 4 Ifetu S. The first shovelful of earth for the new high school was lifted by Board of Education President Robert Kendall last July as Superintendent B. C. Shankland and other Board members look on. In the group are Mr. Clyde Tiley, Mr. Walter Nelson, Mr. Shankland, Mr. Kendall, Mr. Walter Kelly, and Mr. Henry Kryger. Longer ago than any of us can remember, Cadillac students went to high school in what was then known as the “central building.” It stood where our school now stands and, in fact, composes the central, or main, section of our present school. Mrs. Delos Diggins contributed the money to add the north and south sections in 1912. 1333111 This picture, taken over a quarter of a century ago, shows our present C.H.S. before the ivy added a touch of beauty to the walls. For a while it looked as though we never would and appeals were made to Governor Williams and get a new school. Work was halted for several the State Labor Mediation Board, months as students and mothers paraded in protest, Scenes TiJe Z aCt See Tia 7 tvie Many are the habits, customs, scenes, and traditions which will be broken up when C.H.S. students say a final farewell to the old building. There will be no more need to do daily battle with lockers that won’t lock nor unlock. Diggins Park will see the gym classes no longer. The familiar arrangement of two in a double seat and one in the middle in assembly will be but a memory. Couples will gather no more on the stairways because the new building will consist of only one floor. There will be a cafetria where we can eat our lunch instead of using the study hall. As Ed Wynn used to say, “Things are going to be different.” —7— We introduce the athletic section with this group of football letter men on the bench during the waning minutes of the Traverse City game. Symbolic of the student section of the book are these capped and gowned seniors in the doorway of the tabernacle. Typifying the classroom section is this pancake-making demonstration in speech class by John Moore as Ted Kelly and Earl Elgas look on.

C. Shankland, Superintendent The above picture of Mr. Shankland fits in well with the theme of the 1951 Log, as it shows him examining the blue prints of the new school. A great deal of the work of planning for the new building has fallen upon his shoulders. This was no small task when it is remembered that the regular duties of operating the Cadillac schools had to be carried on simultaneously. — —-38— ' George H. Mills, Principal Mary Lou VanHoose Along with the rest of us Mr. Mills is saying farewell to the building over which he has presided for so long. He has guided the destinies of many of Cadillac’s youth as they wended their way through the four years of learning in “old C.H.S.” In the early days of the old building, all the clerical work for the superintendent and principal could be taken care of by one secretary. Now with the great increase in forms and reports of every kind plus the huge enrollment, three secretaries are needed. Miss Kardell and Miss Bour-assa are busy in Mr. Shankland’s office while Mary Lou VanHoose is the new girl in Mr. Mills’ office this year. Lucille Bourassa i------------------—r —r Doris Kardell —39— Frieda Dell Rae E. Johnston Alice Kenaga “Very capable and efficient” describes Frieda Dell, who teaches typing, business training, and business law. She is also one of the advisers of the large freshman class. Michigan State Normal College at Ypsilanti is where Mrs. Dell received her B.S. degree. Rae E. Johnson handles the most money of anyone around C.H.S. He is the faculty adviser for the school bank. Along with his financial duties Mr. Johnston teaches business training and bookkeeping. He attended Ferris Institute and received B.S. and M.A. degrees from the University of Michigan. A very quiet and pleasant lady is Alice C. Kenaga. She knows all of the horrors of teaching future office executives the intricacies of a typewriter and the codes of shorthand. Mrs. Kenaga received a B.S. degree from Central Michigan College of PMuca-tion. Efficiency in an office takes hours of practice and hard concentration. Our commercial department is set up to aid those who wish to learn how to balance accounts accurately, read and write shorthand, and type with ease and speed. Accuracy and speed are the two essentials in any business office. The typing students have new machines, but concentration and many hours of patient effort to the look on their faces indicates that it still takes learn to type. Beatrice J. Hutchins Mary S. Johnson James Spencely Squares, triangles, circles, spheres, planes, and equations must haunt Beatrice Hutchins at all times. Miss Hutchins teaches mathematics from algebra to trigonometry and solid geometry. She also has a ninth grade English class. The sophomore class is guided in its activities by Miss Hutchins. Western Michigan College is where Miss Hutchins received her A.B. degree. The cheerful friendly face of Mary Johnson is a pleasant sight in our halls. Miss Johnson teaches general mathematics and algebra to our freshmen. In addition she is a junior class adviser. Michigan State College is Miss Johnson’s alma mater from which she received a B.S. degree. Our mathematics department is growing as we see by the addition of James Spencely. Mr. Spencely teaches algebra and geometry and is a co-chairman of the Junior Sportsmen’s Club. A.B. and M.A. degrees from the University of Michigan are the educational qualifications which enable him to teach. Every student of mathematics realizes the need for the three essentials of a mathematician: patience, concentration, and the zeal for hard work. Many hours are spent in solving problems in general math, algebra, plane and solid geometry, and trigonometry. The study of these subjects does much to increase our power of thinking and reasoning. The advanced mathematics students made various models to use for their study of geometry. —41— The distinction of being the tallest man around C.H.S. belongs to Coach Hiram Becker. Besides coaching champion football teams, Mr. Becker is intramural basketball coach and assistant track coach as well as a teacher of freshman English. He received a B.S. degree from Central Michigan College of Education. A very quiet unpretentious lady is Eunice Mai-leaux who presides over room 25. Freshman, sophomore, and junior English are her specialties. North- western University in Evanston, Illinois, is where Mrs. Malleaux received her B.S. degree. Loraine H. Worden is the regal looking woman who maintains order in the somewhat lusty senior homeroom. Besides keeping the seniors in check, she teaches freshman Latin and sophomore and senior English. Mrs. Worden received an A.B. degree from Hope College and has done post graduate work at the University of Michigan. To prepare us for the future by teaching us to speak and write correctly, accurately, and vividly is the basic role of our English department. In our English classes we learn to appreciate the works of both American and European authors, those writers of the past as well as contemporaries. When this group of freshmen English students school yard had an example of it; so, with shovels read an article on soil erosion, they found that our and baskets of leaves, they repaired the damage. Rex Austin Francis Hiscock Lynn Kingsley A popular young teacher was with us for a short time, last fall before he took a leave of absence due to illness. Rex Austin taught mechanical drawing and wood shop and freshman civics. Central Michigan College of Education is his alma mater where he received a B.S. degree. A tall, quiet, pleasant looking chap is seen frequently hurrying along the corridors with a business like attitude. Francis Hiscock is the name of the gentleman. Machine shop and advanced wood shop are under his guidance. He attended Wayne University and received his B.S. degree from Western Michigan College of Education. Mr. Hiscock is one of the senior class advisers. Lynn Kingsley spends most of his time in the “lower regions” of C.H.S. while teaching industrial arts to our aspiring young carpenters and engineers. He is also golf coach. Stout Institute is where Mr. Kingsley received his B.S. degree, and he did graduate work at the University of Minnesota. In shop classes many of the young men of C.H.S. get their first taste of working with wood or metal. The boys taking mechanical drawing are initiated into the mysteries of the proper use of drawing instruments and the drawing of blueprints. Left: Duane Nelson (left) and Jerry Tossey making.

He received his B.S. degree from Central Michigan College of Education, his M.A. degree from the University of Michigan, and he has done graduate work at the University of Colorado. Besides teaching art, Mr. Flickinger teaches junior English and is an adviser of the junior class. We need only to glance into room 35 to know that it is the art room. On the tables around the walls we see life-sized figures from lions to humans. The art students have a wide variety of projects to choose from. Some work with leather or make models out of wood while others work on ceramics. Many paintings, and sketches decorate the bulletin boards.

He has been director o the last twenty-two junior-senior plays and adviser for all our Medalist and All-American Logs. His A.B. degree was granted by Hope College and his M.A. by the University of Michigan. Speech is one of the most important subjects taught in our school. It is of benefit to everyone because in anything we do we shall have to be able to express ourselves clearly and fluently. After completing his speech training the student is better equipped to go out and seek his place in the world. Speech teaches us how to think things out and how to be able to express our thoughts so that they may be easily understood. All freshmen, sophomores, and juniors are required to take speech. M. W.

TiJe ean i fo Safaf, {food Miss Patricia Nicholson has spent only one semester with us. She came in January when Mrs. Nor-cross resigned to be with her husband. A graduate of Northern Michigan College of Education where she received her B.S. degree, she teaches all the girls’ physical education classes. This year we had a bride among the members of our faculty, Betty J. Norcross. Mrs. Norcross came to us as Betty Cochrane with a B.S. degree from Western Michigan College of Education. Girls’ physical education and health occupied most of Mrs. Norcross’ time. She was also an adviser for the Y-Teens Fawns. She left at the end of the first semester to be with her husband.

CUtd @0 14, The librarian of our school is lla L. Minier. Nearly every person at one time or another has asked Miss Minier for help in finding some required book. The senior class gets some special attention from her as she is one of the advisers. An A.B. degree from Central Michigan College and graduate study at the University of Denver are ample qualifications for Miss Minicr’s duties. The man who knows all about women drivers and hot rods is Morris Carpenter. Mr. Carpenter teaches driver training and typing. He is also faculty athletic manager, a senior class adviser, and dean of boys. Mr. Carpenter received his B.S. degree from Western Michigan College of Education. During every hour of the day the library is crowded with students looking up essential information for term papers, themes, or speeches, or just looking at magazines or reading book reports. Our very excellent library offers a great deal of help to the students. Driver training is taught to help the student learn the proper procedure in using a car. Throughout the course we are initiated into the mysteries which lie under the hood of a car. We are also taught the laws and common courtesies which all drivers must know and practice in order to be considered good drivers. Ila L. Minier Morris Carpenter In the fall when book week rolled around the trophies were removed from the case, and a book display was placed there by Miss Minier and the library workers. Looking at the display are Doris Nienhuis and Robert Holly. Taking driver training is more than a matter of getting behind the wheel and going places. It also includes the rather uninteresting job of cleaning and polishing the car. Shown at work are Dick Olney, Meril Hodgson, Donald Mof-fitt, and William Johnson. ‘Suy ' 4tovn The subjects of general science, biology, chemistry, and physics are among the most difficult in school. Once the mysteries of a microscope and the unknown ingredients of a test tube are out of the way, the student is well on his way to a career in science.

A newcomer to C.H.S. is Wilma Keeler who teaches home economics and home and family living. Miss Keeler received her B.S. degree from Central Michigan College of Education and did graduate work at the University of Michigan, Michigan State College, and the University of Colorado. If you don’t think that it’s a job to teach young girls the art of homemaking, just ask Pearl Oliver. Resides teaching home economics, Miss Oliver teaches freshman English and is a freshman class adviser. She received her B.S. degree from Central Michigan College of Education and did graduate work at the University of Michigan, Michigan State College, and the University of Colorado. Wilma Keeler Pearl Oliver Homemaking is taught to the girls of C.H.S. so that they may learn to become good home makers in future years.

This year the chorus classes presented the first annual all city Christmas concert. Among the special features of the year for our students is the solo and ensemble festival. Each year many avail themselves of this opportunity of playing for adjudication. Our future musicians are always hard at work on new material in order to improve themselves. The chorus classes, composed largely of freshmen this year, sing under Mr. StockwelPs direction. Donald J. Stockwell 1950 saw a newcomer to our music department, Donald J. Stockewell. “Stocky” took over this fall and presented a transformed band in time for the first football game. Along with teaching the budding young instrumentalists of C.H.S., he teaches chorus. Mr. Stockwell received his B.S. degree from Western Michigan College and his M.M. degree from Michigan State College. P ie ieA Met owi nwycteA Another one of our busy teachers is Dana Bran-denburg. First and second year Latin and French are taught very capably by Miss Brandenburg. In order to fill in any extra time Miss Brandenburg has the duty of being dean of girls, a sophomore class adviser, and director of the cheer leaders.

Canute came to us in the middle of last year. American history and American government are capably taught by him. Mr. Canute is also the coach of our freshman football team and coach of the baseball team. He holds a B.S. degree from Western Michigan College and an M.A. degree from the University of Michigan. Early in the year a teacher was needed quickly to take the place of Mr. Austin who became seriously ill. We were very fortunate to get Marilyn Fritz, who holds an A.B. degree from the. University of Michigan. Her big task is to teach civics to the freshmen. “Whispering Jim” is the name by which James Nesbitt is known for his not too gentle voice. Mr. Nesbitt is assistant football coach and head basketball and track coach. In addition to these duties he teaches American and world history. Central Michigan College of Education is Mr. Nesbitt’s alma mater from which he received a B.S. degree. Richard Schwichtenberg is the man with the impossible name. “Schwichty” teaches English to the juniors and somehow manages to drag the seniors through economics. Being adviser for the Junior Sportsman’s Club takes up his spare time. Mr. Schwichtenberg received a B.S. degree from State Teachers’ College of Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

Coach Young received his B.S. degree from Michigan State College. He resigned at Christmas time to enlist in the air corps. When Mr. Young resigned John Bradley was secured to teach physical education and health to the boys and American history and sociology'. In addition to these duties he became tennis coach and reserve basketball coach and an adviser to the ski club.

Playing their first game of the season at Reed City, Cadillac won by the score of 12-6. Zagers, Cadillac’s stellar left half, scored both touchdowns, one in the first half and another in the second half after a 62 yard run. Led by the fine running of Zagers and Stevens and the passing of Francis Smekar, the Vikings mauled Fremont. Zagers again led the touchdown parade by crossing the goal line three times. Stevens with two touchdowns, William Smrekar, Stayer, and Eley with one each, rounded out the scoring. Playing our ach rivals to the north, the Vikings showed that they were unbeatable by walking over Traverse City, 40-13. In this game it was again the Cadillac line and backs which showed Traverse how to play. In the scoring department Zagers had two touchdowns, Fettig two, and Stayer and Meek one. In the fourth game of the season Cadillac defeated Mt. Pleasant, 38-6. In the first half Zagers raced seventy-five yards to pay dirt for a score. Zagers made two more touchdowns and Fettig one to put Cadillac ahead, 25-0, at the half. In the second half VanPelt scored along with Matson to give Cadillac a 38-6 margin over the Oilers. It was once again the Viking line that played an important part in the outcome of the game. The favored Vikings handed a 35-13 defeat to Petoskey to make it nineteen straight —58— wins. Cadillac scored first on a pass from Francis Smrekar to William Smrekar. Then Zagers grabbed a pass to score the second touchdown as the half ended. In the last half it was not hard for Zagers, Stevens, and Stayer to score. In this game Ed Foster, star tackle, lost two teeth. It was a hard fought game, and the hard running Cadillac backfield and line were too much for Petos-key. The Vikings showed their power by defeating Manistee, 54-0. It was again the fine running of Bert Zagers, the signal calling of Francis Smrekar, and the forward wall of Cadillac that were too strong for the “Chips.” In the scoring department it was Zagers who crossed the goal four times. Laurent, Francis Smrekar, and Ransom also took the ball across the goal line for touchdowns. In the Ludington game the pressure was on as Laurent had to replace the injured Smrekar at quarterback. The loss of Zagers early in the first quarter also was hard to take by the Vikings. Never-the-less, without the services of these two boys, the Vikings went on to win. Laurent did a beautiful job and scored one touchdown. Mattson, Stayer and Fettig also scored.

But in this athletic-mad year of 1950-51 in C.H.S. no one seemed to have heard of the impossible. Following the example of the football team last fall the basketball boys went right out and brought another championship to add to Cadillac’s renown. The season started off with little to cheer about as we went to Alpena and took a 60-40 beating at the hands of the class A school. But then the big march started to the conference championship. First we smashed Big Rapids, 57-47. Then followed a quick series of victories over Reed City, Traverse City, Mt. Pleasant, and Manistee. Ludington gave us a scare by forqing us into an overtime period, but we won, 52-51. Petoskey, a non-conference foe, beatjjs, but from then on Cadillac had nothing but victories right to the end of the season. Against conference competition we had a perfect record. The tournament games which followed brought the season to a close in such a welter of excitement as Cadillac fans have not seen since the 1927 team won a regional championship. Our first opponent was defeated without too much difficulty. Then came Alma and what a game that was! Our boys had to make up a fifteen point deficit to beat Alma and take the district title. After defeating Godwin Heights in a thriller, we had high hopes for a regional title too, but Fremont dashed our hopes there by sinking a basket in the last minute to win, 45-44. All honor to Coach James Nesbitt for his excellent handling of the team, and to the six stars of the squad, Captain Bert Zagers, Anthony Stayer, Roger Moore, Dick Laurent,. Francis Smrekar, and Richard Benson. 64- ScaxeA Cadillac _ 40 Alpena . 60 Cadillac _ 57 Big Rapids __ _ . 47 Cadillac __ _ _ 40 Reed City _ . 38 Cadillac 40 Traverse City . 30 Cadillac __ 46 Mt.

The track team won five meets, lost two, finished third in the conference, and second in the regional. Cadillac opened the season by defeating Lake City. Traverse City and Grayling came to Cadillac and the Vikings took these meets by lop-sided margins. The team then journeyed to Traverse City and took first in a triangular meet winning over Traverse and the Leelanau School for Boys. The following week the Viking thinclads went to Alpena and were defeated by a fine Alpena team. Cadillac got back on the winning side with a win over Big Rapids. After this meet the Vikings absorbed defeat at the hands of Manistee. This meet was very close and was not decided until the last event. The conference meet went as it has for the last few years: Lud-ington, first; Mt. Pleasant, second; and Cadillac, third. In the regional Cadillac finished second behind Ludington. Bert Zagers, the leading scorer of the Vikings, Duane Eley, Mark Booth, and Walter Ransom went to the state meet in Lansing.

The team went through a season of eleven matches and won them all. The boys also came out on top in the conference and regional meets. Ten players composed the 1950 blue ribbon aggregation of whom only four have graduated. The prospects are bright for another winner this spring. Cadillac 7 Mt.

The 1950-51 senior Y-Teen Club is an enthusiastic group of thirty-five junior and senior girls. Their aim is: “Service and good will to school and community.” One of their projects was sending Christmas presents to the Lapeer home, and another was giving a donation to the March of Dimes. They have sponsored many well-attended dances for teen-agers and adults. They held a very successful grade-school talent show-in the high school auditorium. They had a rummage sale and many candy and bake sales throughout the year. A Christmas birthday party was held in the form of a banquet. A successful slumber party wras held at the Youth Center following the Manistee game. Lunches were provided for the teams after the basketball and football games. Membership cards were received and membership pins were bought. The Y-Teen constitution was revised by adding many new amendments. A banquet honoring the seniors was held in the spring. The officers of this club are: President Margaret Shepherd, Vice-President Joan Grice, Secretary Dema Trobridge, and Treasurer Carole Long. The advisers were: Mrs. Milo Ash, Miss Betty Dillon, Miss Ruth Sogge, and Mrs. William Boynton. Many projects are now under consideration for the betterment of the community.

Once a week the Fawns held a business meeting where coming events were discussed Before the Big Rapids game a huge pep rally was field in front of the postoffice. A big dummy, made i)y the Fawns, and representing the Big Rapids Cardinals, was burned at the meeting. and planned. At these meetings the girls spent considerable time getting acquainted with each other and having a lot of fun together. Early in the fall an initiation meeting was held at the Y. The new freshman girls were forced to draw assignments for a stunt to put on. These initiation stunts were a great source of mirth and hilarity for the other club members, and at the same time they served to break the ice for the new girls so that they felt they were an integral part of the organization. The girls took part in many activities such as giving toys to needy children at Christmas time, putting on dances at the Youth Center, donating to the March of Dimes, having candy sales, and many other useful things. Some of their larger projects were the annual “Sweetheart Swing and the spring carnival with the Torch Club. The advisers for the Fawns are Miss Mary Johnson, and Miss Patricia Nickleson.

It was received by Douglas Lund. The main project of the club was the publication of a twenty-four page football program. Also, the club honored the football team and their fathers by serving them a chicken dinner. The boys of the Hi-Y performed several services for the school and community. They conducted the March of Dimes campaign in the high school and helped with the community drive. The club itself donated a sizable sum to the drive. At Christmas a basket of food was donated to a needy family. The C.Y.R.A. received a contribution of twenty-five dollars from the club.
