CLIFFORD MICHEELS The Braves The Braves are the youngest full-fledged members of the Waupun High School Tribe. There are I29 Braves, making them the largest section of the tribe. ln order to become a regular member of the tribe, the Braves were initiated by the Warriors at the beginning of the year. The ceremonial costumes for this occasion were dictated by the Warriors. After their initiation, the Braves were entitled to take their rightful place among the tribe. They belong to numerous activities and organizations. When it comes to tribal music the Braves really excel. A large number of the Braves are active in the music organizations of Waupun High School. There is a representative of the Braves in every musical group. Many of them are active in the Senior Band. There is a representative of this class in almost all the sections, playing practically every kind of instrument. This year there is also a large number of Braves singing in Mixed Chorus. ln addition to this group, there are many others who sing in either the Bovs' Glee Club or the Girls' Glee Club. Many Braves have athletic skills. The boys use them to good advantage by playing on the foot- ball, basketball, and baseball teams. Many are also members of the golf, tennis, and track teams. A large number of the girls belong to the J. A. A., where they compete in many different sports. Prenden' Both boys and girls belong to the Rifle Club. Many Braves have dramatic abilities. They have put these talents to use by being active in all phases of forensics. The Braves' participation in all these many and varied sports and other activities will help them to become good leaders when it is their turn to become head of the tribe at Waupun High. Then, when they are the Chiefs they will make the trails for others to follow, as they are following the trail laid for them by today's Chiefs. BACK ROW: S. Hinkamp, D. Johnson, D. Johnson, A.

We who are the humble braves in the village have had but a taste of all the good things that are yet to come to us during our high school careers. Yet, as we look forward we have high hopes of making our class a successful one and we sincerely want to make each year of high school a better and a more creditable one for us as a class and for the school as a whole. Next year as warriors we will have the opportunity and privilege of warmly welcoming the new braves and looking upon them with pitying l?J eyes as we recall our own intiation experiences. Our year will be full of new and different activities from those we knew as braves. We feel a little superior because we are no longer strangers, but are well acquainted with high school life lwe hopeb. Then an eventful year will end and we will find ourselves filling the places of council-men in the school activities. Newly-acquired class rings will adorn the fingers of Class of '54 students or their steadies. All of our thoughts and actions will be focused upon plans for the great high- light of the year, our prom. We firmly believe that our prom will be ranked among the best ever presented in the village, Our king and queen . . . who knows who they may be, but there certainly is a lot of us to pick from. We'll work hard to make our prom a grand success. Yes, it's fun to work but then, we'll be glad when it's finished and we can once more relax and settle down for the last weeks of school. Then suddenly we will be seniors. It'll hardly seem possible that we ourselves are one of those sophisticated creatures. But, then we will really be kept busy, busier than we have ever been before as we'll prepare to make our exit from the village. Grad- uation pictures and cards will be distributed to close friends and classmates. We think of how we will be participating in many of the activities for the last time as an actual part of them. All of us will become a little more serious about our school-work because we feel that the last impres- sion of us must be a good one. Then the anticipated day will arrive when we, too, will anxiously wait our turn to get our diplomas. That may seem a long way off now, but it really isn't.
