Class Motto Rowing, not drifting Class Colors . . . Yale Blue and White Class Flower . . . American Beauty Rose Class History On September 3, 1936, our class of '39 started on a fourfyear trip aboard the boat Fort Atkinson , setting sail on the Sea of Education . Our first advisor was Miss Ann Fadness. After a series of political campaigns the following officers were elected: President-Robert Heide, Vice President-Loren Wittmaiiii, Secretary and Treasurer --Jean Crerar. A series of minor parties were sponsored on the lower deck-namely, the Junior High School. The next year we were promoted to the higher deck-the Senior High School. That year our executives were: Robert Heide, Presidentg Warren Bienfang, Vice Presidentg Percy Wolfraiiim, Secretary and Treasurer. Miss Larsen was our advisor for the next two years. In the oratory contest Harold Witte won the first honor with Clyde Morris as his alternate. We gave a minor dance this year. Our Junior year was filled with business which was undertaken by the President, Robert Heide: Vice President, Herbert Gumbleg Secretary and Treasurer, Marion Habel and Mark Kerschensteiner, jr. Harry May led our class in basketball and was elected captain of the next year's team. In the forensics contest at Watertown, Clyde Morris placed tirst in oratiory, and Robert Bemus Hrst in extemporaneous speaking. At Wluitewziter, Clyde won third in oratory. Lillian Trottier also participated in forenf sics. Of course, the prom was a gala event. Miss Larsen helped us produce a very sucf cessful promenade expressed in the deep sea motif with music by Eddie Thiessen and his tenfpiece band. Our prom royalty was the popular couple, Ruth Covey and Wen' dell Friedel. A broadcast of the prom was transmitted at 9:30. Our last year in Fort High School was filled with events that we shall never for' get. At our election of officers, Wendell Friedell was made Presidentg Arlene Richter, Vice President, and Ruth Covey, Secretary and Treasurer. Our Senior float placed first in the Homecoming Parade with Consuming The Cheese as its theme. The an' nual staff, under Arlene Richter-chief editor, and Lillian Trottier-assistant editor, started plans for what they hoped would be Fort's best annual. Page Twentyfone
