While we are attending high school it may seem a dull monotony, yet these are, in truth, the best years ot our lives. Classes, teachers, and outside activities help to form the charac- ter that will be presented to the world atter graduation. Whether that is two years or only one year away, it is closer than we thinlc. Perhaps some day you will walkthrough these halls again. If you do, your memories will walk with you. I' N I I .

FLEENOR lhereis Mr. Janesl l can remember the many times l taced him to answer a charge ot slcipping class. lnle has a hard job to do, especially in disciplining unruly students, and he does it well. l-le is Assistant Principal, We should stop in and see Mr. lileenor. l-le is really the busy executive and adf ministrator, with student council, man- aging the school, and the Parent leach- ers Association. l-le is Washburnls strongest publicity man. l remember how enthusiastic he was about James Whitcomb Riley. We, the alumnae, remember and strongly suspect the lcindly, triendly, philosophy and ge- nial good nature ot the ill-loosier poet'l tinds a good disciple in our triend and principal, Mr. Fleenor. selecting colleges, selection ot programs, and helping seniors with all the details ot graduation. l-ler aid is invaluable and has earned the gratitude ot all the girls. There goes 'lMerv l l-le helped me plan my pro- grams and select my college choices. l-le gave many tine tallcs at our Hi-Y meetings, and he is always busy promoting school activities. l-lis understanding, pa- tience and general good nature, malce him one ot the better known and best lilced men around school. MR. JANES MISS CHRISTENSEN MR. DltLNER is in charge ot the National l'lonor Society, and has the additional taslcs ot lceeping order and studying student- teacher relations. While were in the otlice we could drop in to see Miss Christensen. Shels the girls' counselor. l-ler job is -'-W-M., gnu- The ottice looks ditterent, but the ot- tice statt hasn't changed much. Miss Lund, the chiet clerlc, does much ol the worlq on commencement programs, and devotes time to sorting the mail. The attendance clerk, Mrs. Trowbridge, can be tound every morning betore homeroom in the nurse's ottice, admit- ting students who decided to spend the previous day at home. Miss Eclerman is in charge ot tinances and bookkeeping, She malqes out nu- merous requisitions, orders supplies, and writes the bulletin. Qur school nurse has many duties, including inter- viewing students tor admission into school atter ill- nesses and excusing students who become ill in class. l-ler tallrs to classes on mental health and home nursing are a must lor every hygiene class. Miss Donahue, the visiting teacher, helps students who have problems by interviewing the pupil, visiting the home, and conterring with teachers and others who have lqnown the pupil. Mrs. Chapman, the speech teacher, aids those with MISS LUND, MRS, TROWBRIDGE, MTSS ECKERMAN speech detects, such as lisping and stuttering, and has written several articles on speech. Mr. Galin does remedial worlc. l-le coaches students in all subjects but mostly in regard to minimum essentials. The library has changed since we lett. The new addi- tion, the one dedicated to those Washburnites who died in the service, was badly needed and will increase the libraryls tacilities. The librarians, Miss Brown and Mrs. Ducklaw, deserve much credit tor making the li- brary an enjoyable spot to spend dull study hours. MRS. BELANGER MRS. CHAPMAN, MTSS DONAHUE MTSS BROWN, MRS. DUCKLAW ' n W mf' ' . - Shakespeare, Chauccr, and Minimum Essential Tests! l-low can any Washburnite torget them? The Juniors can be seen wandering atter Macbeth's dagger or trying to get some news around the school tor their Journalism class. Wihan that Aprillef' and other English poetry, keeps the Seniors on their toes. The Sophomores can be called almost authorities on Cureelr and Roman Myth- ology and American Literature. At the end ot every se- mester, atter the essential tests and composition tests have been taken, everyone wonders whether it is who' or i'whom, or what you wrote tor your composition. Modern Drama, creative writing, and speech are non- academic courses which are ottered in connection with the English Department. An excellent example ot the co-operation between stu- dents and teachers is in the art department. This is evident by the large number ot students who won awards in the Scholastic Art Awards Contest. Miss Oberg and Miss Trowbridge teach the art courses ottered at Washburn which are: cratts, including clay models balred in the new lriln, metal work, paper mache models, and chip carvingy tashion: designing: sketch: and painting. This Spring, the halls will be wallpapered again with the products oi the students ettorts and artistic abilities. This includes every- thing trom Modern Art lwhich otten gets hung upside downl to current tashion styles. It is a collection ot the best wort done in the art classes tor the entire year. The south end ot the third tloor houses the Math de- partment. Here the average Washburnite can be tound sutiering through either algebra or geometry. Also tound there are those students aspiring to be engineers, scien- tists, businessmen, or just plain mathematical geniuses. They can be tound taxing their brains with such subjects as advanced algebra, solid geometry, and trigonometry. Intormation learned in these classes is also very usetul in chemistry and physics. It greatly increases your analytical ability and teaches you to be more exact in your reasoning. ENGLISH: Claeson, Carlson, Krause, Dowling, Mulligan, Bastard, Young, Keyes, Horns, Tyrholm, Wells ART: Obcrg, Trowbridge MATH: Minty, Sunde Olson, Jackson T151 , -? v The science courses at Washburn give students expe- rience 'tor tacing this scientitic world. The mystery ot the atom is explained in chemistry and physics. ln chemistry the biggest thrill is your tirst ok experiment. The most shocking class is physics when Mr. Reque demonstrates the conductivity ot the human body. Botany, under Miss Lowry, teaches you how to tell the ditterence between Poison lvy and Virginia Creeper other than by touching them. Most Washburnites take biology where the tun be- gins when the trogs arrive. Mr. l-lelleckson, one ot the biology teachers, has lett Washburn to resume his com- mission in the Navy. Mr. Ross and Mr. Larsen supervise boys' gym activities. The boys are kept in condition with tootball in the fall, basketball in the winter, softball in the spring, and calis- thenics all year round. Judging by his record, Mr. Ross tavors basketball. Mr. Larsen can be seen urging his track enthusiasts to lift those legs and tly like burrds, or en- couraging the ski team which he also coaches. Mondays and Thursdays tind the girls busy with GAA. sports such as badminton, volleyball, tennis, basketball, and sottball, under the direction ot Miss Bowen and Miss Thurston. All girls are required to take three years ot physical education unless excused by a doctor. Gym courses with a ditterent angle are tumbling and tolk dancing, There are tour other language courses ottered at Wash- burn besides English. They are Spanish, French, German, and Latin. The two years ot Spanish, which are given here, are taught by Miss Laird. Miss Tupper, who also taught Spanish, has been ill this past semester. Substitut- ing tor her is Miss Berglund. Two years ot Erench and German, taught by Miss Gear and Miss Denison respec- tively, are also ottered. Last, but detinitely not least, is Latin, the basis ot almost all the languages. Eour years ot it is taught here by Mrs. Savage lnot shownl. The classes here not only teach you to read, write, and speak the language, but give you a background in the nation's culture. SCIENCE: Morrison, Pulvcr, Rcque, l-lcllcckson, Lowry GYM: Bowen, Larsen, Thurston, Ross LANGUAGE' Tupper, Laird, Gear, Denison L93 No one can go through Washburn without having some connection with the music department since chorus is required tor two years. The Band is directed by Mr. Super, the Glee Clubs are under Mr. Bole- winels supervision. He and Mr. Super direct the out- standing musical presentation ot Washburn, The Christmas Chorus. Halt the tun ot home economics was eating your own tood. The part that wasnlt much tun was taken care ot with some bicarbonate ot soda. Conducting a nursery school was part ot the senior toods course taught by Miss OlConnor. It gave us a chance to study child psychology tor use when baby sitting. The sewing classes under Miss Goode not only make their own clothes, but also do interior deco- rating, which includes color and turniture arrange- ments. Did you know that Coopers made barrels on Wash- ingtonls tarm? What is economics and prove it. The answers to these and many other questions can be tound through the teaching tacilities ot the Washburn Social Science Department. American history is required in eleventh grade and modern problems in tweltthg world history is an optional course. Mechanical drawing, under Mr. l.ee's supervision, is very interesting. Atter we tinished the required drawing we could draw in any tield we wished. Mr. Henley, whose sudden death shocked Washburn, was the woodworking teacher. Mr. Schmidt is now supervising that department.

She takes care ot the girls' gym and wom- en's rest rooms, Some ot my most embarrassing mo' ments occurred when she walked into the rest room when we were skipping. ltd never have recognized the Iunchroom with the wondertul paint job done by the art classes. I ref member long lines waiting tor tood and the rush to get the next hour's homework done. The Iunchroom statt deserves more credit than they get, They work diligently and taithtully to teed a hungry group ot Washburnites. With the addition ot new dictating machines, typewriters, and mimeographs, the commercial de' partment's teaching tacilities are better than ever. The subjects taught are bookkeeping, typing, shortf hand, secretariat practice, and ottice training. Also under the supervision ot this department is the co operative work program and remedial penmanship. The standards ot the Washburn I-Iigh School busif ness training course are one ot the highest in Minf nesota. Remember the unexpected vacation the students had last year? They missed school tor three weeks while the ianitors went on strike. Seeing Mr. Hill, th-3 head engineer, reminded me ot it. i-lets in charge ot the work schedules tor all the ianitors, whose job is to keeo Wa.hburrr in excellent condition.

Jim Undem, President I I Jim Undem, president ot the I95I senior class ol Washburn l-ligh School, is an outstanding student. l'le captained the tootball team and is president ot the Washburn l-li-Y cabinet. Though he is well liked by his triends, tew ot them realized his greatest hidden talent. Jim played Lucentio in the Shakespearean plan Tam- ing ot the Shrew. Earl Johnson adds the ottice ot vice-president ot the senior class to his long list ot school triumphs. To prepare tor it, he served in Ramsey as president ot the graduating class. l-lere at Washburn, Earl holds many other positions. He is president ot Latin Club and a member ot National l-lonor Society. l-le co- captains the basketball team, and was one ot tew to earn a baseball letter in his sophomore year. Not Susan, but Susie, is the name ot our class secre- tary. Eew need an introduction to Miss Kennedy, the possessor ot a sparkling personality. Susie is an avid tan ot all sports and she participates in girls' sports wholeheartedly. She was on the Silver Tri cabinet and is a member ot the Glee Club. The reason why John Sunde could buy presents tor all his triends is because he holds the position ot class treasurer ot the graduating class ot '5I. John is interested in all sports, and he plays an important role during the track season. No one lacks taith in John's ability as an accountant, but it he does run into sums too complicated tor himselt, he can get help trom his tather who, we all know, teaches math here. Solufoiforidns ond Vcrledicforicms ls English hard tor you? lt changed the ranlc ot three ot this year's valedictorians to that ot salutatorians. ln spite ot this, the I95I class has eight honor stu- dents - a number surpassed by only one class in Wash- burn's history. Jack Langguth, Grace Billings, Jean Dingman, Paul Van Vallrenburg, and Nancy Schutz, the valedictorians, have had straight A averages at Washburn. Mary Sue Sudman, Ed Marlqs, and Ruth Stetterud are the salutatorians. They have but one B average. Both Mary Sue and Ruth got theirs in newswritingq Ed got his in sophomore English. Beside attaining excellent scholastic records, each ot these students tind much time tor service to the school. Jack, Grace, Paul, Jean, and Ed are editors and as- sistant editors ot the Grist. Mary Sue is active in Chroma Club and G.fx.A.: Ruth in Wahian and G.A,A.3 and Nancy in Erench and Latin Clubs besides singing at many school programs. All eight students are members ot National l-lonor Society and deserved the greatest commendation tor their work and service.

What have we here? Watch that batonl TI1ere's Talent in Our Midsf The class ot 'Sl can boast many talented members. Their talents are wide and varied. These seniors have displayed their abilities at various school tunctions. Bob Burbridge is the mystitying magician around Washburn. l'le can be seen pulling little rabbits out ot hats, making things disappear, and the other familiar tricks ot magicians. Cris Medchill has been studying ballet tor three years, and she will soon rnake it hard tor Pavloya. She gets some practicing done at school, tor its none other than Cris you otten see pirouetting down the school halls. When Tom Tisher toots his trumpet, eyeryone within ls that a pirouette7 hearing distance comes to attention. Tom started play- ing his trumpet tor programs at Ramsey and he has certainly increased his tame since coming to Wash- burn. ln ten years, look tor Tom as the leader ot a band. You can bet that where theres a baton, Carol Hess- ing is the one twirling it. Carol was a very tamiliar tigure during the tootball seasons when she was act- ing as majorette. She has won several awards, and we predict that they are just a beginning. These tour pertormers represent a small part ot the senior talent, but because they have displayed their abilities to the school so generously, they are a tew ot the best known and best-liked entertainers.

Will there be a talent scout who will Mdiscovert' me? These thoughts lcept running through the minds ot those in the cast ot Lite With Father, the senior class play. Those who had the most worrying to do were Boyd Johnson, who played Father, and Ruth Ruttley, his tolerant wite. The qualms ot the cast were untounded, however, in that everyone did a splendid iob. This play, once hav- ing a long run on Broadway, was tull ot wit, pep and vivacity. The humorous parts the leads had to portray were done in a very accomplished manner. And letts not torget the rest ot the characters. Nancy Zimmerman did an excellent interpretation ot the visiting aunt, and Frances Kellogg added to the romantic interest ot the play. Lee Nelson, Bob Burf bridge, Ralph Kurtzman and Tom Richardson added their talents to this production, Ailorae McCabe donned an apron tor the part ot the maid. Although many ot the parts were double-cast, they were excellently porf trayed both nights. Lite Witti Father was certainly a distinct dramati- cal accomplishment tor the members ot the graduating class, and was considered tops by all! Taming of the Shrew Shakespeare has come to Washburn tor the second consecutive year. This year Taming ot the Shrew, one ot the most popular ot Shatcespeares comedies, was presented by the modern drama class on Aprit 20. Mr. Krause again coached the cast. Gretchen von Loewe ptayed Kate, the shrewy Boyd Johnson exercised ati his charm in the part ot Petruchio, whose job it was to win Kate, and that was no easy iobi Minor roies were played by Nancy Zimmerman, Earl Lindquist, Roger Bergren, John Hastings, Diclc Juht. and Ann Burke. Biancas role was taicen by Caroiyn Figur and Jim Undem was Lucentio. Bob Burbridge ptayed the major part in the proiogue. The costume, stage, and scenery crews are to be commended on the work they did in helping to stage this production. E: Each morning we met in our home rooms. The bulletin was read and attendance was taken. And it was there that we filled out those endless record cards. But most important, we made friends. Some of them I had almost forgotten.

Last tall, when the senior class dislilted the way the homecoming queen was elected they arrived peace- ably, en masse, to the morning council meeting. Their ideas were considered by the council and as a result there was a re-vote and everyone was satistied with the new queen.

E531 Red Cross Cabinet Washburn's Junior Red Cross, under the guidance ot Miss Goode, conducted two worthwhile projects during the past year. The tirst was the filling ot an education and health chest. From money contributed by Wash- burn students, supplies to equip a toreign classroom ot 48 students and a teacher were purchased. The mer- chandise valued over STSO. The supplies were put into a large chest and sent to the Red Cross Headquarters. From there it was sent to where it was needed the most. The second project was the annual March mem- bership drive tor Junior Red Cross. This year Wash- burn's contribution totaled fBI4O. Social Relations l-low would you teel it you had just come to Wash- burn trom another school and didn't know a soul? So- cial Relations committees job is to make the newcomer teel completely welcome and at home. The members greet new people, show them around the school, and help them meet the students and teachers. This group, headed by Mr. Dillner, also has the big job ot handling the Orientation Program. This program is given in the spring tor treshmen who plan to enter Washburn the following tall.

During the second semester Blue Tri plans to sponsor an all school Book Boogie. The books will be sent to a library in Alaska. During the school strike, Blue Tri sponsored a day ot activity at the Y.W.C.A. The girls participated in swimming, bowling, ping-pong, volleyball, and did some square dancing.

It is a Silver Tri meeting, the club which boasts one ot the largest Y-Teen memberships in the city. The Washburn club, with excellent participation by its members in all programs, has had a very eventtul year. The tall calendar tound the girls at a Dads' and Daughters' Banquet at the Y,W.C.fAi. The girls enter- tained their Dads with a style show, and atterwarcls there was square dancing tor all. Also in the tirst semester was a style and talent show put on by Silver Tri members. Next came a lllzaculty Frolicw where tive teachers showed their musical ability. The group, under the leadship ot Miss Minty, also tound time to have Mr. Dillner talk on Boy-Girl Rela- tions and to have spealcers trom England and Germany. The spring program was just as entertaining as the tall. There was a Mothers' and Daughters' Tea at the Y.W.C.A. and a Spring Dance, The Tri Trot, at the Youth Center. The biggest event ot this year, as in the past, will be the picnic at Lyman Lodge, the last activity tor this year's Silver Tri members, The presiding ohticers ot the club were Stevie Brown, president: Mary Lou Kriechbaum, vice president: Pat Barnard, secretary: and Diann Solberg, treasurerg all were under the able supervision ot Miss Minty. -n ' u Silver Tri Cabinet Row One: Barnard, Secretary, Solberg, Treas- urer, Miss Mrnty, Brown, President: Kriechbaum, Vice Prizsidcntg Pollard.

Fall Hi-Y Cabinet Hi-Y The Washburn l-li-Y clubs are generally believed to be the most active service organizations around school. The real purpose ot l-li-Y is to create, maintain, and extend high standards ot Christian character throughf out the school and community. Most people will agree that this is very well carried out. The l-li-Y clubs are held together by the l-lily cab- inet. At the beginning ot the year Earl Johnson was president: Cris l-toy, vice president: the secretary was Bud Moll, and the coatreasurers were Ed Marlcs and Don Norris. ln the spring these boys were succeeded by Jim Undem, Bud Moll, Ken Gorsty, Seymour Drus- lcen, and Diclf l-lovland, respectively.

They include selling Christmas tree tickets tor the Y's lVlen's club, worlcing on the Christmas tree lots during the holiday season, malcing contributions to the ECB. l'lEor Other Boyswl, and providing Christmas and Easter dinners tor poor tamilies. The social activities ot I-lisY are almost as outstand- ing as the service projects. Each individual club usually has about three parties a year outside ot the All l-li-Y parties held each semester. These parties include many activities such as bowling, toboganning, slcating, and dancing. Co-operating with the Blue Tri they spon- sored a county tair.

This triumph over South- west, together with a tie, with West, gave Washburn a tootball season ref marlcably parallel to the previous one. Washburn opened the season against Vocational and dropped a close one 6-O. ln this game Washburn used the T tormation tor the tirst time since I946. The Millers then moved to South l-hgh where the Tigers mauled them, 25-6, Washburn scored its touchdown on a Jett Simus to Jere Briggs pass. A new and improved Washburn eleven tools the tield, a 25 point un- derdog, against West's Cowboys.

On the second play ot the third quarter Lee Simso took a reverse trom Chuck Swanum and galloped 77 yards tor the T. D. This game was marked by courageous line play on the part ot our outweighed torward wall. In an away from home battle with Edison the Orangemen were squeezed out, I4-6. Again Swanum shined on ottense and Chuck Wilharm and Don Norris turned in stalwart detensive pertormances. For their homecoming battle Coach Ray Smith's gridders took on the rugged Roosevelt team. Although Washburn tought hard all the way, they were not able to tame the ag- gressive teddies who went on to win, I4-O. Atter a 25-O shellacking by I-Ienry, Washburn taced Southwest in the last and best contest ot the year. With the 50th Street title at stake the Mil- Iers tinally played up to their poten- tial and scored a tremendous upset over the Indians. Southwest scored tirst but Wash- burn bounced back with an 86 yard kickott return by Swanum torthe score. In the second quarter the Millers went ahead, I3-6, on a 57 yard Swanum sprint. But Southwest tallied twice to take a I9-I3 lead in the third quarter. Again Choo-Choo Swanum rose to the occasion with an- other 87 yard kickott return tor a T. D. tvffashburn, then Southwest, both tal- lied again but the Indians' try tor extra points was toiled by Len I-Iaus- key. Southwest threatened again but Bob Kojetin stopped them on our tour yard stripe. VJith ten Iettermen returning, plus many good sophomores, next year's team should be well up in the title race.

Boys' Athletic Boord One ot the less publicized organizations contributing to the betterment ot Washburn is the Boys' Athletic Board. It was instituted when the school was tirst built. lt is very seldom called upon to take action, yet its job is an important one. Whenever a matter ot policy over any phase ot boys' athletics arises, it meets. Probably its most important tunction is to pass on the eligibility ot prospective letter winners. The board also has the right to recall the letters ot any athlete deemed unworthy ol the honor. Captains and coaches ot all athletic teams, together with certain members ot the taculty, malce up this board, Sitting: Kardong, Hoy, Johnson, Coulter. Standing: von Eschen, Swanum, Flcenor, Mr. Alwrn Mr. tee, Standing' Mr. Larsen, von Eschen, Coulter, Swanurn, Copfoins The captains are elected by their team members and their coaches in each sport. The most important trait possessed by a team cap- tain is that ot leadership. Captains are expected to set an example tor their tellow players to tollow. They must have the ability to tire up the team at a critical moment and lead it over the rough spots. The captains ot this year's teams are as tollows: tootball, Jim Undemy basketball, Earl Johnson and Chris t-loyg hockey, Earl Fredricksonq swimming, Peter von Eschenq wrestling, Perry Planlcp tennis, John Coulter: golt, Abe Kardongq traclc, Chuclq Swanunny and baseball, Linder Peterson.

All boys who have earned their letters are automatif cally eligible tor membership in the Boys' club. Each year the club holds a number ot banquets. All winners and their parents are allowed to at- tend. Team managers are probably the hardest worl4- ers ot all letter earners. Theirs is the job ot keeping a team well equipped and in shape tor all its games. They are given a special letter with MGR. printed on it. Athletic letters are the most common type. They are awarded to boys who meet the letter require- ments ot the various sports. Usually the coaches decide whether the members ot their teams are eligible tor the honor. Letter winners otten display their monograms on a letter sweater. The sweater also carries a small emblem showing the sport or sports letters have been won in. A star indicates that the letter was won by a member ot a city championship team. Washburn considers membership in the Boys' club a great honor.

City Champs Vfashburnls city championship swimming team opened its season in a prophetic manner by winning the Wells-Hodgson lnvi- tational Meet. It edged out Roosevelt, its closest competition, in the tinal event, and won the meet, 30-24. Coach P. NW. Lee's boys tollowed this triumph with easy dual meet victories over West, Central, and Marshall. E341 Fxtter the Christmas vacation came the real test, a dual meet with Roosevelt, last yearls champions. The tension mounted as one ol the seasonls biggest crowds watched an exciting battle. Coach Lee outsmarted the Teddies by starting Jerry Gale in the IOO yard breast-stroke and switching Roger Mattison to the ZOO yard tree style, Both boys iustitied Leels strategy by winning their events. l-towever, Roosevelt was in the lead with one relay lett to decide the victor. Once again the Grange lanlcers emerged victorious and stroked past their adversaries, 38-37. With the toughest ot the competition out ot the way the boys settled down to the business ot holding on to their tirst place standing. This taslc proved easy enough as the team humiliated its remaining oppo- nents in a convincing tashion. ln the Edison meet the loO yard tree style relay team set a new all time city record. Tom Bennett, Captain Peter von Eschen, John Patterson, and Jerry Gale, the members ot this team, broke the old mark by a tull second. Most ot this tine team will graduate in June, but with such promising sophomores and juniors as Larry Gattney, Dan Oclqen, Tom Hall, and Tom Bennett, the team should have another good season.

Led by captain Perry Planlc the wresa tling team tinished a time season in sec- ond place. With only tour men returning trom l95O's championship squad, Coach Russell l-lelleclcson and his boys deserve much praise tor their high standing in a ditticult league. This team showed that it had what it takes by coming baclc atter the school strike to place nine men in the subf regionals. l-lowever, in the tougher com- petition ot the Regionals, at Hastings. all but Planlc were eliminated trom state tournament contention. Perry, in tact. was the only Minneapolis wrestler to Fight in the state meet, ln dual competition Washburn rolled through their tirst tive meets without a hitch. Then in the last meet ot the season they met also undeteated Roosevelt in what amounted to a championship duel. The team tried its best to pin the suf perior Teddies but could not malce the grade. They would have lilced to malce a present ot the championship to Coach l-lelleclcson, who was leaving tor active duty in the United States Navy, Runners-Up Next winter this year's team will return intact with the excep- tion ot seniors Planlc, Clarence Tuclcer, Bob Koietin and Carl Ireland.

Hockey Teom Finishes First The Washburn hockey team once again proved its mettle by coming through the league schedule without a deteat. Their six wins, no losses record, was marred only by a playott deteat at the hands ot Southwest. l.ed by seven returning lettermen, the pucksters started the season on a winning note, taking the mea- sure ot Marshall, 4-l. Their victory celebration was somewhat dampened by the loss ot captain Earl Ered- rickson, who cracked a bone in his wrist. The Millers met much stronger toes in their next two games. They did, however, tinish strong and beat both Central, 3-2, and West, 3-I. Edison, the next opponent, also tell betore Coach Carl E. Calson's smooth skating hockey squad, 5-2. At this point the Millers were sailing along in time style and seemed to be destined tor the championship, until the season was interrupted by the teachers' strike. The team managed to get in some practice under the coaching ot Ed Carlson, but were not able to maintain their early season edge. HOCKEY SCORES Xlffashburn .......... 4 Marshall .

E881 After the strike had terminated, it was necessary to hold a playohf to determine the Minneapolis entrv to the state tournament. Washburn drew Southwest in the tirst round and sutiered their only deteat ot the season, 5-3. By this time the city race was tar behind schedule and hockey rink assignments were in a contused state. An attempt to resume season play was made, but even this was given up atter two rounds. ln these last two games Washburn regained its win- ning torm as they beat l-lenry, 5-2, and Vocational, 3-l. Atter the season closed, Washburn, with its un- blemished record, was the logical city champion. However, due to the shortened season and the dis- ciualitication ot Southwest, it was decided that i950 would go without a city champion. A tinal verdict was to be handed down by the board oi taculty managers. At the time ot this writ- ing, the controversy was still to be decided, HOCKEY STANDINGS Team NW' L T Washburn . ..........., ....... . .6 O O Roosevelt ., .5 O l Central 4 l l Xkllest ..... 3 2 l l-ienry ...... 3 3 O Vocational .... ....

No, it wasn't lack ot snow that kept Coach Vilhelm Larsenls shushers oti the slopes, but rather the inopportune teachers' strike. The team had the potential ability to go tar this year it they had been able to compete in more meets. Washburn had just placed third in the City Ski Meet when the strike torced the cancellation ot the rest ot the season's events. In the tirst meet, the Millers showed an even distribution ot strength as they placed two men in each event. Ken Rosland and Don Strom took oth and Sth in the cross country race, Steve Wangensteen and Rosland placed 8th and I2th in the slalom, and Dino Psihos and Strom placed l2th and I7th in the iumping competition. The team this year consisted en- tirely ot seniors. This means that Coach Larsen will be on the lookf out tor talented underclassmen to torm the I952 team.

Don Tokar was a very determined hurdler, as he set a new record in the 60 yard low hurdles. Captain Bob Smith said, attei the meet, lt was a team victory: everyone wanted to win. There was a lot ot support trom the crowd and that made a big ditierencef' Cn April 2l, Washburn proved its prowess by hum' bling its closest rival, Southwest, by a 63V3 to 49lf3 score. Tokar took the 220 yard low hurdles, the broad jump, and was second in the l00 yard high hurdles. Smith won the l00 and 220 yard dashes. Tokar's time in the lows was one-tenth ot a second less than the state record held by Petrott ot Washburn. These, along with many seconds and thirds and a relay win decided the meet. At Northtield, Minnesota, Coach Wilhelm Larsen saw his boys take their third major track victory ot the season. Led by Tokar, Smith, Chuck Swanum, Jerry Fitz- simmons, and others, the thinclads made an easy job ot taking the Carelton relays. Once again Southwest was Washburnls closest competition. The Larsen men had trouble in the weight and distance events, but won anyway, Led once again, by the nucleus ot the squad, the orange atoms exploded through all competition in the St. Thomas relays. As betore, the boys had trouble in the tield events, but they captured a third in the broad jump lTokarl and a tie tor tourth in the high jump lBergh and Wrightl. ln the City Relay Meet our boys lost a heartbreaker. They tinished second to Roosevelt by one-halt point. As was expected Mr. Larsen led his boys to an easy victory in the City Track Meet. This triumph was costly, however, as Captain Smith was eliminated trom State meet competition in the l00 and 220 yard dashes. ln the State Meet the boys once again tinished sec- ond by a hairls breadth. They were topped by Owa- tonna by one smali point. Many tine members ot l950's team will be back in '5i. These boys, together with the iuniors and seniors that will compete tor their tirst time this season, should produce another great track team.

The contest with Roosevelt could have meant the city title, and the match was not decided until the Final putt. Atter this win, Washburn seemed headed tor the top until the ill- tated South match. The over-con- tident linksmen tell betore coura- geous South in one ot the biggest upsets ot the season. Atter the season's dual meets had ended, the Washburn golters went on to win the district tourna- ment easily. By virtue ot this triumph, the Millers moved on to the regionals.

A late spring combined with bad weather to turn play- ing tields into seas ot mud. Most pre-season practice was accomplished inside the school gymnasiums. When the teams were tinally able to get outside, it was nec- essary to start season play immediately. The Millers opened the season against West. Wash- burn held a I-O lead going into the last halt ot the fifth inning. Then Dunton, who had been pitching shutout ball, allowed two runs to score. Washburn came back but lost this heartbreaker, 4-3. The second contest with South, tollowed much the same pattern as Washburn blew a I-O lead and tinally succumbed to the Tigers, 3-2. Atter losing to Central by a 5-O count, the Miller nine won a torteit victory trom Roosevelt. In a return match with West, Tom Dunton blanked the Cowboys and Washburn earned a 2-O decision. These victories were tollowed by losses to Central and South. The Orange ended the season with an I I-2 victory over Roosevelt, once more behind the sterling mound work ot Dunton. Washbuins 3-5 record does not truly indicate the amount ot work and good ball playing that the boys expended. They were beset by bad breaks all season. 923 Coach Roy Ross said, Wife had one ot the best pitchers in town but we couldnt back him up with hitting. This best pitcher that Mr. Ross mentioned was Dun- ton. in tour games Dunton struck out 44 opponents. l-le was backed up by Earl Johnson, John Nyquist, and Jere Briggs to give Washburn one ot the best pitching statts in the city, but as Mr. Ross said, llltls pretty hard to win when you dont have tielding or hitting. As a rule the hitting was very poor but there were a tew bright spots. Linder Peterson, our clean-up bat- ter, hit .444. This total included three home runs. l-lc was tollowed by Jack Robinson with an average ot .375 With six returning lettermen plus others that didn't win letters or participate last year, Coach Ross hopes that this year's team will end with a better record in league competition.

' BH Tennis Teom Takes Third in '50 Under the leadership ot captain Felix Phillips the l95O Tennis team managed to tinish third in city standings. The Mill- ers opened the season with a 5-O victory over South. They tollowed this with a 3-2 triumph over Central. ln these matches, and those tollowing, Washburn was represented by Phillips, Dick Erdahl, Bob Cole, and John Coulter in the singles spots. The doubles teams were composed ot John Peterson and Dean Stromwell, and Tom Marr and God- trey Larson. Washburn's winning strealq was brolcen in its third meet, with Edison. Erdahl and the doubles team ot Larsen and Marr tri- umphed but the Tommies took the other three matches and won 3-2. The Millers bounced baclq in the next contest and toolr an easy 4-I win trom l-lenry. All three Washburn singles men, Phillips, Erdahi and Cole, plus the Larsen, Marr combination, won in straight sets. Coach Fred Curtis! net men once more swallowed the bitter pill ot deteat as they suttered their second and last loss, to Southwest. Phillips won again, and al- HOME RUN? though they tought hard, the rest ot the squad was not able to tollow their captain's example. Many voted Phillips the top tennis player in the city and his con- sistency won him a state tournament birth. l-le did well there and ad- vanced to the semi-tinals betore being deteated. The I95l team is new and inexperienced, stated captain John Coulter at the beginning ot this season, most ot last year's team has graduated. E933 FALL G.A.A.
