Since that first class one hundred years ago many changes have been made in La Crosse's school system. A few ofthe important additions made are a vocational and an orthopedic school, the hot lunch program, A and B courses, field trips and audio-visual aids, a wide variety of subjects, and the Parent-Teachers' Association to promote understanding between the home and the school. Schools of today have been planned and built to accommodate the needs of today's youth.

Page 9 l95O marked the beginning of a new course at Central, that of vocational agri- culture. Enrollees are boys who have had farm experience and a place where they can carry on their projects. Since the course Covers four years, freshmen come from Longfellow and Washington Junior Highs, while boys from Aquinas and Logan are enrolled with Centralites for the remaining three years. The freshman year, really a foundation course for the following three, includes poultry culling and housing, dairy herd testing, small grains and crop diseases, and woodwork- Two Aquinas and two Central students learn how the Babcock milk tester shows the fat content in milk. gricultmfe Department Harold E.

Sophomores continue the study of dairy herd improvement, feeds and feed- ing, and add to these farm mechanics, swine and sheep and beef management. During the third year subjects offered are dairy cattle management, marketing, cooperatives, farm accounts and records, advanced soils and fertilizers, soil conser- vation, advanced woodworking, and fenc- ing. The senior studies the choice of and the financing of a farm, farm manage- ment, government programs stressing agricultural aids, and the care and use of farm machinery. More advanced students learn how to test soil for acidity and how to follow up the results of the test. With the idea of doing their own repairing, two sophomores and two freshmen study the insides of a tractor. ..Each ag student carries on a farm- ing program on the home farm. This may be the raising of cows, chickens, pigs, or crops and includes keeping a record of all labor, feed, and other expenses, or a boy may choose a program of soil testing or of testing the milk of the home herd. The quarters of the ag department include a classroom, a testing laboratory, and two smaller rooms. These replace the supply room and lounge used by the maintenance staff, and Room 3, formerly a Latin classroom. Central's newest organization is the Ag bulletins of various kinds are used instead of a single textbook. Future Farmers of America. Open only to boys enrolled in the ag course, the La Crosse chapter has a member- ship of thirty-eight. Bimonthly meet- ings are held at Central under the spon- sorship of Mr. Niles. Promotions and awards earned by members are dependent not only upon the farming projects car- ried on but also upon the work done in class.

Since its inception twenty-seven years ago, Circle has been a cherished goal for every Central student. The honor society was founded in l923, and every subse- quent year citations have been awarded at the commencement exercises to the qual- ifying few. Since the discontinuance of the midyear class, citations have been awarded only in June. Attainment of the honor is limited to the very diligent and versatile, for standards are high. To gain membership one must have a B average or above in four subjects, be punctual and regular in attendance, and participate in varied extra-curricular activities. Grad- ing is by a point system. Sophomores must earn 24, juniors 30, and seniors 36 points. At the end of the year Circle holds its only meeting, the solemn and impres- sive initiation after which a reception is held and a program is given. The total number of citations at the June, l95O, commencement was 44. Of these, l9, nearly half, were to graduating seniors, tour of whom received a third citation. Of the present student body, l9 seniors and 6 juniors have received the coveted honor. Seven of the '5l graduates have had two awards. The total Circle mem- bership now equals 604. Advisers are Miss Hayes, Miss Taras, and Mr. Smith. Q ' W L' - ' pMqQ e Leaders Mi Candid Cozmcilors Top Row: R, Cross, D. Voss, A. Town- send, P. Tankc. Front Row: P. Rum- ldt, J. Funlce, C.

During the first week of school newcomers were welcomed by posters, a special edi- tion of the Hi Trib, and a dance. ln Octo- ber Alice Bires, Caroline Keller, John Westerlund, and Tom Hicke went to Mil- waukee as delegates to the state student council convention. Under the council's sponsorship the second annual Fall Festi- val was successfully staged. For Christmas the council, through the home rooms, fill- ed twenty-eight stockings which were taken to a hospital. So that the students would better understand the workings of the council, an assembly was presented. An Executive Committee was formed to enable the club to get more done during the meetings. The council was instru- mental in initiating a' tri-school city council. The unacclaimed standing com- mittees, Social, Assembly, and Finance served capably. ln March the Finance Committee held a pastry sale to raise money. Roger Monson was President Ralph Secrist's understudy, Lucile Han- son was corresponding and Caroline Keller recording secretary. Karl Gillmeis- ter handled the finances. Mr. Hethering- ton, Miss Wiley, and Miss Malchow advised the group. I Top Row: T. Pederson, J. Wcstcrluncl. T. Thompson, K. Cillmc-ister, R. Wlthrow, D. Glendenning, R. Monson, J. Blanchard, F.

The annual job of taking One of the busy organizations in Cen- tral is the Booster Editorial Staff, with its responsibility for a record of the year's activities. The chosen theme for the l95l edition, One Hundred Years of Public School Education in La Crosse, was on the business agenda for the first meeting in September. Every first and third Tues- day of the month found the editor, Joyce McKillip, presiding over a joint meeting of 24 seniors and i5 juniors. After roll was called, section heads reported, assign- ments were made, and various sections remained after the meeting for work and discussion. Instead of using a combination Booster pictures goes on despite frosty days. Able Ammlists of letterpress and offset type, the l95l Booster is printed by the offset method only. A saving in picture arrangement was effected when the mounters, for the first time, cut and mounted all the senior pic- tures, 261 in number. As previously, try- outs for the staff were held during lvlay. A high scholastic record, ability for the type of work to be done, and teacher recommendations were requirements for selection. A meeting of the entire new staff was held in May to plan the work for fall. Understudying for the position as editor of the i952 Booster was Bob Thoeny. Miss Thiel is adviser of the staff.

Behind the glory of its editorial staff is the rarely-remembered Booster Bus- iness Staff. lts members, all of them girls who are selected by Mr. Fregin, the ad- viser, sell the book to the public, seldom receiving sufficient recognition for their work. This year the staff again hit a new high in sales records. Sales other than to the student body itself amounted to l47, which number topped last year's peak of l4l. Sales among the student body totalling 770 indicate that eighty-five per cent of Central High stu- dents purchased Boosters. The success of the year's drive may have been due to the fact that the sales deadline was moved ahead to November 30th, the date set for all outside sales to be in. A deadline must be set so that the book covers can be ordered early. The staff, composed of seven juniors, six seniors, and four soph- omores, does more, however, than take orders for the Booster, ln the spring, they distribute the yearbooks to the purchas- ers. For the l95O-l95l school year a sophomore and a junior were leading salesmen, Delores Capicotto and Janet Arnet making fourteen and thirteen sales respectively. Ruth Kilian was student manager and Janet Arnet aided her in the capacity of assistant manager. With looks of eager expect- Poge 55 Page 56 2 9 WW' Top Row: ll. Mulclrow' J. llcmker, J. Kitson, J.

Junior columnists, at heart, the Hi Trib Editorial Staff keeps Central stu- dents informed of their school's activities by issuing fourteen papers a year. New interests obliged the Hi Trib to initiate special features such as Snoopin' Around, The spotlite's on You and Teachers on Review. Edited by Peter Rank, the sports page was provided with the two new columns, Fifth Down and Sports Review. From time to time, articles condensed from the Ladies Home Journal appeared in the Hi Trib. An eight page roto section, presented by the Scholastic Press, appeared with each issue. Instead of the usual four page edi- tion, an extra Christmas joy for Central- ites was found in the six page Hi Trib issue.

Business manager, Irene Ka- pellas, with her assistants scans the paper to check the ads. Adventurous Ad-seekers For the very smartest in school shoes stop in at ---. This was only one of the many items of advertising to be found in the Hi Trib during the past year. These ads gave full proof that Central's Hi Trib Ad Staff was hard at work securing patrons for the school paper. At 3:30 on each Tuesday after the Hi Trib was pub- lished Room lO8 would be fairly bursting with eager and active staff members as they received their assignments. Then for the next few days they would venture from one business establishment to the next, with notebooks in hand, seeking ads. All was not work, though, for these industrious Centralites could look for- ward with anticipation to the party held jointly with the Hi Trib Editorial Staff at the end of the year. lt was then that awards were given to the members who had been on the staff for three years. Miss Anne Roche, the adviser, saw to it that everyone had his job to do, especially the department heads, who were Irene Kapellas, advertising, Joan Bowker, as- sistant advertising, Ruth Arney and Lola Frauenkron, typists, Darle Blade, circu- lation, Jayne Pahl, mailing, tenth graders from Room lO8, salesmen, and Richard Herlitzka, carrier of the papers to the post office and to a few local readers.

Page 57 Page 58 ' The cast for Family Circle Climaxed by the annual three act play, the male dramatic group, Harlequins, en- tertained its audiences with two produc- tions. The first play, The Tiger's Claw, a humorous mystery, centered around a family that was being evicted from its home. Harlequins in the cast included Karl Gillmeister, the father, Lee Rozelle, the hero, and Tom Hicke, the villain. The cast of Family Circle, also a comedy, included Bob Thoeny, Karl Gillmeister, Roger Monson, and Ronnie Schnick. Dur- ing the first semester tryouts, four new members were admitted into the club, and two more were voted in during the second semester. An initiation was held began practicing weeks before April l4l'h. after dinner at the New Villa for those joining during the first semester. Miss Brye served her first year as director of the organization. Officers of the club the first semester were president, Karl Gillmeister, vice president, Lee Rozelle, secretary, Roger Monson, and treasurer, John Kitson. Second semester officers included Lee Rozelle, president, .lim Mack, vice presi- dent, Karl Gillmeister, secretary, Allan Schilling, treasurer. Regular meetings were held on the first and third Thurs- days of every month in Room l8, however much extra time was spent in rehearsals by members of play casts. Top Row: K.

A bearded villain who looked suspici- ously like a girl might have startled any casual visitor to Room l l7 on a second or fourth Thursday of the month. However, it only meant that the Masquers were hard at work and enjoying it. Of the girls at Central trying out, seventeen new members were taken in. The initiation was presided over by the new officers for the first semester including Caroline Keller, president, Lucile Hanson, vice president, Noranne Byers, secretary, Sharon Fredricks, treasurer, and Janet Arnet, historian. The members presented a mystery-comedy, The Tiger's Claw, jointly with Harlequins for their annual assembly. Their float won second place in the Fall Festival parade. Exchanging gifts and eating by candlelight at their Christ- mas party, the annual spring banquet, a speaker from the Teachers College, a Masquer-Harlequin feed, and the record- ing of each member's voice were among other memorable events of the year. Planning for and presenting the spring production of Family Circle left little leisure time for the adviser, Miss Brady, and the officers for the second semester who were Helen Hale, president, Lucile Hanson, vice president, Libby Linden- burg, secretary, and Judy Eckart, treas- urer.

The twenty-two Library Round Table members were kept busy shelving books, checking them in and out, answering stu- dents' questions, and taking attendance, all under Miss Swenson's supervision. Be' sides these duties the book lovers helped to take care of the sadly worn books, and they arranged bulletin boards advertising the latest publications. Each member was regularly assigned to the after-school duty of reading the shelves, a process by which each book is kept in its rightful place. Before Christmas the work area was turned into a repair shop where the books collected by the Jaycees were put into presentable form to give to the needy, the books ranging from pre-school to high-brow classics. With Room 207 all decked out with Christmas greenery, white plastic foam trees, and a real Christmas tree, L. R. T. played host at a tea to the faculty, the maintenance staff, and a few student guests. The group en- tered an appropriate float in Central's Fall Festival Parade. To remain out of the red a candy sale was held each quarter of the school year. Joan Hansen presided over the bi-Wednesday meetings while Adrienne Brietzke took the minutes and Ruth Kilian held the purse strings. L. R. T. teas are always con- sidered extra-special by faculty, student guests, and the club members themselves. Bus Book Lovers Checking the lists of articles in the Christmas boxes is an en- grossing task. Benevolent Benqfezctorfs Local good will characterized the pro- gram of the Junior Red Cross's ardent workers. Since everyone enjoys a party and shut-ins and invalids are no excep- tion, the council started by having a Hal- loween party for the guests at St. Joseph's Home, a Christmas party at the Emerson School, and a Valentine party for the resi- dents at the County Home. Entertain- ment, refreshments, and favors were pro- vided for each of these occasions. About sixty Easter baskets were made and filled with colored and chocolate eggs for the patients at Oak Forest Sanitorium, and also about three hundred May baskets filled with candy and cookies were sent to the West Salem Asylum. The council, with the support of the home rooms, filled the traditional gift boxes to be sent over- seas and conducted the March of Dimes drive. Some of the girls made trips to local hospitals to visit and cheer patients. An interesting scrapbook was received from a school in Bavaria, Germany, in re- ply to a chest sent in l949. This year's council was under the supervision of Shar- on Fredricks, president, John Bibby, vice- president, and Bonnie Erickson, secretary- treasurer. Red Cross, sponsored by Miss Hayes and composed of one member from each home room, met in Room lO9 on the fourth Tuesday of every month. Top Row: H. Rogers, l. Munson, J. Bibby, Richard Larson, D.

Carrying-these passes around is only one of the many jobs of the office help. They also answer phone calls, collect absence slips, and run errands. These girls are chosen for their scholastic record, at- tendance, personal appearance, and courtesy. During the Christmas vacation the girls enjoyed a party given by Bev Jorgenson.

Como esta usted? That is the greet- ing members of Los Hidalgos Club ex-- change at their regular meetings every other Thursday in Room 203. The name Hidalgos, meaning nobility, was suggest- ed for the club at its inception a number of years ago by Miss Brody, club adviser. Early in November the club began learn- ing carols, and on the last day before Christmas vacation went through the school serenading the students with their Spanish songs. The club not only sang such perennials as Venid Fieles Todos which means O Come All Ye Faithful, but they also sang their own translations of White Christmas and l'lI Be Home for Christmas. Their merry voices echoed through the halls and really set the holi- day mood. This was the main activity of the year for the club. At the year's out- set fourteen new members were taken in which made a total of twenty-three mem- bers in the club. However the girls out- number the boys by a two to one ratio. After electing officers, the club decided to start the year out with a bang. They sold Dulces, the Spanish word for candies. This added to their treasury. Serving in the respective capacities of president, secretary, and treasurer were Gloria Capicotto, Irene Kapellas, and Terry Sharp. Members of Los Hidalgos note the date of the coming meeting. Laudabl e Li 12 guists Central's shutterbugs listen rapHy as Bob hAoen, guest speaker, gives pointers on more effective use of cameras. Photo Fans The photography bugs of Central are given a chance to follow their hobby in the Camera Club. Meetings after school and in the evening were not only enter- taining for members, but also instructive concerning the use of the camera. Bob Moen talked to the group on a new type of camera and gave tips on taking indoor and flash pictures at an evening picture- taking session in the auditorium. Other special activities conducted by the club included a movie on the use ofthe camera and a picture taking contest. Bruce Markgraf won the prize with a picture of another photographer taking a group pic- ture for the Booster. Regular meetings were held every Monday night in Room l8 under the direction of Mr. Oines. The club owns all equipment necessary for developing, printing, and enlarging films. These facilities were frequently used at special evening meetings devoted entirely to developing. In the spring, interest again went outdoors for scenic photog- raphy. The club officers who helped Mr. Oines carry on a well rounded program of fun and education included Dick Weber, president, Frances Schroer, vice-presi- dent, Marilyn Riebe, secretary, and Car- olyn Barge, treasurer. Membership in the club is limited to thirty-five. Top Row: E. Olsen, F. Jcromc, J. Schmcckpeper, R. Hilton, R. Stigen, K. Betz, M. Cloutier, R. Weber, J. Hemkcr. Fourth Row: R. Schnick, C. Fryda, D.

The brains and brawn for an attractive stage are usually furnished by the Stage Crew. These are the boys in white overalls who work late after school and before and after assem- blies, This year the group was called upon to make sets for the Masquer-Harlequin productions, The Tiger's Claw and Family Circle. The boys again made sets for the music department's annual productions. Erect- ing pyramid-shaped choir stands for the Christmas play was a challenge the group met and conquered with their customary Agile stage crew members quickly dismantle the stage set- ting after the Masquer-Hallo quin play. l ingenuity, Under the new guidance ot Mr. Pittman, they performed numerous other duties aside from making props, such as placing and operating ot lighting equipment and tending the curtain, At assemblies the crew helped with small tasks such as rounding up tables and chairs, helping to arrange the entertain- ers' equipment, and setting up micro- phones, Mr. Pittman often worked right along with the students. The require- ments tor membership in the crew are interest, mechanical ability, willingness to work, and dependability to see the job through, Although hard work, the job is also fun for the boys.

With the growing importance of audio- visual material the Projectionists have be- come an increasingly essential part of our school life, yet these workers behind the projectors go practically unnoticed. This year, for the first time since the group has been organized, membership was not limited to boys only, but girls also have operated the machines efficiently. All students who were interested registered with Mr. Oines, and the inexperienced were instructed in the mechanics of the equipment early in the year. A carefully arranged schedule permitted each projec- tionist to know in advance when his ser- vices would be required. Movies were shown to classes in Room 20, Room 205, and in the auditorium where screens and projectors are available. Outside of school hours projectionists were called upon to show football movies of the previous game to the coaches and team, and to show movies during the noon hour when nec- essary, and also at the Halloween Party, and at the Valentine Party. Equipment operated by members includes two movie projectors, two slide and strip film pro- jectors, and the sound systems in the auditorium and gymnasium. No students except the projectionists were allowed to handle the equipment. Girl projectionists, allowed to join the group for the first time, j show their skill in using the , equipment. j PUQe 67 Page 68 Top Row: B. But-low, S. Bakkcn, I... Fraucnlcron, A. Brictzkc, B.

To this the president responded with, We wel- come you into the world-wide circle of Y-Teens, and thus climaxed the tradi- tional candlelight ceremony, impressing each girl who joined. Besides attending the regular meetings in Room 2l2 at Central or at the Y, W. C. A. every first and third Thursday of the month, each Y-Teen worked on at least one committee during the year. The standing committees included Service, Program, Publicity, So- cial, Finance, and Membership. ln No- vember the Service Committee worked energetically, collecting chocolate bars and sending them to children in Manila. The Program Committee issued a hand- some mimeographed booklet listing the Y-Teen program for the year. Various entertaining activities were planned. A combination barbecue supper and marsh- mallow roast held on the Y. W. C. A. grounds started the year. Bowling, swim- ming, hiking, and picnicking provided amusement for everyone.

The mother-daughter tea, the Christmas party, and the tea for grad- uates were its principal projects. Credit for the sale of plastics, homemade bakery goods, and Central stationery went to the Finance Committee. The Membership Committee had the tedious job of taking the roll at each meeting. In addition to the traditional Hanging of the Greens at the Y. W. C. A. in December, when a financial gift was given for Y. W. C. A.'s in war torn countries, Y-Teens in true Christmas spirit decorated the halls of Central and the tree in the cafeteria. They also brightened the Christmas ot the folks at Saint Joseph's Home for the Aged with their merry caroling and the decorated evergreen branches they pro- vided for the elderly guests. Perhaps it was the inspiration gained by Greta Lar- son, Joyce McKiIIip, and Bernice Buelow at the Y-Teen summer conference held at Lawrence College at Appleton that made the year l9'5O-l95l such a vigorous one for Central Y-Teens. The leadership of the president, Joyce McKillip, vice presi- dent, Nancy Mulder, secretary, Sharon Fredricks, treasurer, Joan Bowker, and adviser, Miss Taras, held the club up to its high standards throughout both semesters.

Because the unexpectedly large number of enthusiasts hastened to sign the membership list, two evenings, Monday and Thursday, were set as the meeting dates. Activities began at once. With talent galore and fully as much en- ergy, the members decorated the gym for the Halloween Party. Then they fever- ishly set about designing and construct- ing new posters for the various clubs around school. The beautiful back drop for the Christmas Assembly and Concert gave evidence of the creative ability of the group. As a long range project they chose to redecorate Room lO2. Officers forthe Monday group were R. Stigen, presidentg and L. Volden, secretary-treas- urer. For the Thursday group in that respective order were J. Rogers and D. Weiland with F.

A revolution in Nocturne put new life into the organization of trained and tal- ented musicians. The constitution was re- vised, a new initiation was introduced, and the officers were elected for the whole year. The basic purpose of the club, however, remained the same: to give the opportunity for members to make solo presentations. Under the supervision of Mr. Mikelson students from Nocturne were chosen to entertain at outside func- tions, giving them experience in perform- ing. Each member was also required to appear upon the program of at least one of the club meetings during the year. The tryouts in October began a busy year for everyone especially the officers, Helen Hale, president, Douglas Phillips, vice president, and Susan Spence, secretary- treasurer. ln keeping with the spirit of the school at the Fall Festival Parade the club entered a float consisting of a cal- liope playing the school song and musical quips on signs posted all over. The annual assembly was based on a Mr, Ziegfeld theme. Among the guests at the annual Christmas banquet were Mr. and Mrs. Haupt-Stummer who entertained the group with a viola and piano duet. Room IS6 is the regular meeting place every second and fourth Tuesday of the month. A feed comes as a reward for hard working Nocturne members. Select Seremzders put forth their best efforts for a recording. Versrztil e Vocalists The Swing Choir members Once again the Swing Choir had a very active year performing for other schools and many organizations in the city as well as for Central's student body. Mr. Alvin Mikelson met with the members every third period on Tuesday and Thursday, and the singers also turned out for an extra rehearsal on Monday evenings, The swingsters did many of Fred Waring's ar- rangements, and among the more popular they sang Old Rockin' Chair, Give Me Your Tired, Your Poor, Land of De- gradation and You'll Never Walk Alone. Their repertoire also contained a group of light rhythmic numbers includ- ing Mary Had a Little Lamb, The Top Row: D. Cram, T. Roach, A. Thoeny, E. Grifhn, R. Frey, ncy, L. Kupferschmid, J.

Many of the singers did solo work when they sang The Song of Christmas, Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, My Two Front Teeth and Winter Wonder- land at several Christmas performances. Caroling was one of the activities along with singing for the Safety Council Show, Kiwanis, Rotary, Lions' Club, the Opti- mists, Vocational School, Teachers College and other organizations besides our own student body. Noranne Byers did the ac- companying for the group. The Swing Choir continues its activities into the summer, the outstanding concert in l95O being presented at the Dells. sister, R. Pierce, D.

The singing chorus members then met on Monday, Wednesday and Friday during the third period under the direction of Mr. Mikel- son to prepare for the annual Christmas Concert which climaxed the year. Being featured was The Night Before Christ- mas and Christmas Choralogue in which the Choir formed two large Christ- mas trees with colored lights. Jerry Moe sang a tenor solo.

Parts of this concert were performed for the student body in the Christmas assem- bly. The singers performed for Mr. Mik- elson in groups of four for tryouts held at mid-semester and continued work for the orchestra concert held in March in which songs from Romberg's operettas were used. The Choir also worked on selections from Carousel, l l-lave No Other Guide But Thee, and The Hen Party. The seventy members, accompanied by N. Byers, finished the season by presenting a concert and singing at the baccalaureate and commencement exercises. SUPYIITIOFI1x1.Alll'I'llfUl'f, I. Barrett, 1... Hunt, N. Byers, J.

Even with the first organized rehearsal in September, the Orchestra began work- ing on two of Wagner's numbers, 'Wal- ter's Prize Song,' and 'Qhoral' and 'Finale' from Die Meistersangerf' in preparation for the spring concert given in lvlarch. Along the same vein was another selec- tion, Prelude and Fugue in D minor. Among the lighter pieces they played La Vie Parisienne, overture to the ballet oi the same name, Tribute to Romberg with the choir singing the many selec- tions, and Oodles of Noodles in which Doug Phillips played a clarinet solo. Other numbers included Little Brown Jug and Park Avenue Fantasy. The strings play- ed three numbers by lVlr. Davenport of Winona, Pop Goes the Weasel, Pizzi- cato Modern and Puppet. The players, meeting during the sixth period on Mon- day, Wednesday and Friday, were placed according to their ability, which was de- termined by the director, lvlr. lviikelson, in tryouts. Mr. Baker helped work with the brass section and Mr. Elder with the strings. Plans for an exchange trip with the Winona High School Orchestra were made. The players finished the year by playing for the baccalaureate and com- mencement exercises the traditional se- lections, Largo and Pomp and Cir- cumstance.

Their songs included Who Comes So GracefuIly, Faure, Grandmother's Thanksgiving and The Cradles. The seventy girls also had social activities, one of which was the complete refiling of the music department's choral music. The singing girls included caroling among-their activities this year. Pz nzazs and Pans The Mixed Chorus highlighted its year by singing 'Twas the Night Before Christmas with the Choir at the Christ- mas concert. The Chorus, made up of any students who like to sing, worked on many types of songs during the year under di- rection of Mr. Alvin Mikelson who helps groom the group for choir membership.

Another red letter event was the Teachers College Home- coming Parade for which it practiced dil- igently. Again the band succeeded in winning the coveted plaque that was of- fered for the last time.

Stately Steppers Miller led the Marching Band and the Red Raider Rooters to Memorial Field for the Central-Aquinas game. Although sev- eral new maneuvers were worked out, the most impressive was performed at the Logan-Central game. Uncle Sam in Re- vue contained seven eye-catching form- ations: an Indian teepee, a church steeple, a firecracker, the Liberty Bell, the links between the North and South, the Red Cross and the American flag. At the conclusion of this football game the red and black uniforms were stored away for the winter months, until once again spring brought the rehearsals for the Memorial Day Parade.

Just as soon as the Marching Band was transformed into the' Concert Band, Winter Rhapsody, the midyear concert held in Central's auditorium, came to life. The Concert Band included in its pro- gram lnvercargill March and waltzes from Die Fledermaus by Strauss. The evening was enlightened by the fast mov- ing Spanish melody, Czardas by Monti, and The Mexican Hat Dance, the latter conducted by Mr. Storandt. Selections from the comedy-opera, The Firefly by Rudolph Friml, were played with much zest. Sympathy, Giannina Mia and Love is like a Firefly were among these. Nocturne and Morning Hymn of Praise plus A Court Function, l Love Thee and The Destruction of Atlantis were chosen from Atlantis iThe Lost Contin- entl Suite. A clarinet solo, Dizzy Fingers, was executed by Douglas Phil- lips accompanied by Sue Spence. Jungle Jump by James l-landlon and Stars and Stripes Forever by John Phillips Sousa concluded the evening. The 73 members constituting the Concert Band, under Mr. Baker's direction, also presented a con- cert in April. Some of the numbers pre- sented were Finale from the New World Begin the Beguine, Barnum and Bailey's Favor- Symphony, IlJOShUa,ll II ites, and American Weekend.

Working with boys he had never seen before, Warren Beson had the difficult task which all new coaches must face of choosing a starting eleven for the first game. ln that game Madison West wrote a dismal first chapter in the football book of La Crosse Central by racking up a 3l -O victory. Several times the Raider offens- ive machine started rolling goalward in high gear, only to peter out at crucial points. Lapses in defense and slow reac- tions on downfield blocking kept the Raiders from denting the scoring column. ln the next game Central, though fighting viciously, recovering several fumbles and scoring in the last play of the game, lost to Eau Claire, 26-l2. ln the first intracity tilt the Red Raiders were downed by a strong Aquinas team, 28-O. Finally a vastly improved and hardened Central football team snapped a losing streak by dropping the Winona eleven in a thrilling uphill battle, l3-l2. The Raiders scored in the fourth quarter and made the all important extra point on a l7 yard pass play which gave them the lead. ln their next game Central overwhelmed the Cresco crew by scoring eight touch- downs. Leading 36-O at the half, the Raiders completely outplayed their op- ponents to a final score of 54-O. Upset- ting a highly rated Milwaukee Shorewood aggregation, l3-6, Central rolled to its third straight football victory.

Captain Wayne Pahl snares a rebound from Wisconsin Although ending the season with an apparently unimpressive record of eight wins and eleven setbacks, Central's cagers showed marked improvement as the sea- son advanced. Everyone of the eight wins was a complete team victory. Many of these games were highlighted by the Red and Black's stellar defensive play, a phase of the sport stressed by Coach Ted Downs. The Raiders got off to a thrilling start when lanky Karl Schubert tipped in the clincher in the last five seconds to give Central a 37-35 win over Sparta. This was followed by a victory over Winona. The Raiders' brief winning streak was then snapped when the cagers bowed to a smooth-working Wauwatosa five. In the next six games the boys were able to muster only one win. After taking it on Rapids. the chin from Eau Claire, they bounced back into the win column by trouncing Lake Geneva. At this point Coach Downs started using an all junior combination. ln intra-city play Central lost two heart- breakers to Logan, each by a one point margin. In the first the Raider's victory seemed almost certain because of their four point lead with only a minute and a half to go. Logan narrowed this gap to one point and then a Logan guard swished the winning tally from forty feet out to give the decision to Logan. Central led through practically the entire second game only to be nosed out in the final seconds of the contest. The regular sea- son ended with impressive victories over Superior Central and Viroqua. The Raid- ers took on Westby in the opening round Bibby and a Winona opponent fight for a rebound.

'S- Wingfoofed Wbizzes Running in third place in the Poor conditioning due to lack of indoor training facilities was evident as Central placed last out of six in the Madison West opening track meet. Outdoor practice was im- possible for a long time because of lingering cold and damp weather, even indoor activity was stopped for a week on account of a coal shortage. But as the weather improved, so did the team. First to fall to the fast developing, well- balanced track squad was Tomah, Next Cen- tral swept to its' second dual meet victory, pil- ing up a clean cut 66-4l score over Richland Center. The Raiders grabbed only eight first places to Center's seven but showed greater depth in all events to make up the difference. For the third straight year Central was nosed out of a victory in the Comet Relays at Charles City, finishing second with 56 points to East Waterloo's 75. Trailing by IO yards when handed the baton, Ted Knudson, ace half-miler, raced to our only first place of the meet in the medley relay, Again second and third places formed the bulk of the final score. Although generally well-balanced, Central had some outstanding individual performers. Chuck Huber, high point man for the season, cut loose in the Campion meet, taking three firsts and a second. Copping the shot put, breaking the tape in both high and low hurdle Pentangular mile is Henschel. Page 88 events, and placing a close second in the lOO yard dash, Huber amassed a total of l8 points. Other high spots of the meet were sweeps of the 440 yard dash and the mile run, and a thrilling finish in the half mile as Ted Knudson raced to a very close win over Campion's runner. After trouncing Winona in their final dual meet, the Central thinlies placed third in the Pentangular. Chuck Huber set a new meet record in the two hundred yard low hurdles, running them in 24 seconds. The previous record was 24.6 seconds. Clark Bluske also had a hand in changing the record books when he broke the previous school discus record of l25 feet by a toss of IZS feet ll3Ai inches. Later in the sectional meet he broke his own school record with a throw of l27 feet Z inches. Track Lettermen R. Eagon, J. Hackett, R. Strelow, C.

O I Mczsbze Men After a good start with one tie and a win Central's golf team finished the year with three defeats, ln the first outing Central tied a tough Winona team, 9 to 9, then won the match with the Eau Claire linksmen, 9 to 3. This was Central's first golf victory over Eau Claire in eight years. That victory however proved to be the team's one and only. Aquinas and Winona scored identical ll V2 to 3V2 point wins. In a return match with Aquinas again Central went down to defeat by an ll to 9 count. L. C. letters were awarded to Captain K. Schubert, J. Bibby, J. Schoenenberger, J. Westerlund, and D. Gordon. Gordon and Schoenenberger are the only graduation losses which the team suffered. Schubert lays one near the pin. Rczzder Racqueteers With four returning lettermen, Central's tennis team, backed up by experience and refined court play, faced the l95O season with a bright outlook. Coach Baker's racquet- eers started by trouncing Winona 9-O. The confidence gained by this victory, lasting the whole season, made winning a habit, For the fifth successive year Central's netmen captured the city championship and de- feated Eau Claire, Logan, and Chippewa Falls to win the Northwest title. The Raid- ers, after compiling an impressive record of seven won to zero lost, closed the season by placing sixth in the state tournament. Letters were earned by L. Miller, J. Wied- man, J. Mason, R.

The rugged sport offered plenty of exercise, complicated holds, and mat burns for those who participated. lvir. Beson and his assist- ant, Herb Olsen from Teachers College, taught their trainees that skill and speed may often win over brawn. The wrestlers practiced Wednesdays and Fridays after school, often drawing a crowd of spectators. They put on a show for the Valentine party and made a hit with the audience, although some of the wrestling was not authentic. Wrestling this year was not a letter winning sport, but interest in it would indicate thai it may become a formal sport at Central. The fine art of wrestling is demonstrated to the rest of the class by P. Cole and D. Markos. Top Row: B. Olson, M. Engelke, P. Frcng, .l. Rahn, R. Mlekschl. Front Row: W. Boisvert, D. Markus, D.

Under Mr. Sutton's direction the tumblers put on their show once at the half of the Central-Aquinas basketball game and again at the Valentine party. Drilling was done on Monday and Tuesday nights after school. Preliminary training was followed by back handsprings with the use of a belt to make practice safe. Routine usually started with front and back rolls. Handsprings and head- springs came next, followed by round-offs and cart wheels. The more advanced tum- blers finished the routine with front somer- saults in the air and combinations of the round-off and back handspring.

Enthusiasm among the players was never dampened in spite of a series of bad breaks which ran through the whole sea- son. Cold and wet weather prevented an early start. The Raiders lacked potential pitching ability needed on a winning team. Walt Huebner, a senior, and Joe Richardson, a sophomore, handled the pitching duties. ln the first game the Raiders came out on the larger end of a 6 to 3 encounter with the Sparta aggrega- tion. The Central nine then lost three contests in succession. ln the first of the three intra-city games, the Aquinas nine belted Central l3-O. The Raiders won the next two before dropping the second game to Aquinas. ln the W. I. A. A. state tourney the Raiders defeated Camp Douglas and Tomah before falling to their North Side rivals by a score of 2.-O. In the consolation game Central defeated West Salem 3-l. L.

Cub After participation in one or more of six sports including football, basketball, baseball, track, tennis and golf, Central athletes who distinguished themselves in skill and spirit became proud possessors ot the coveted LC award. The letters were usually presented by the coach at a spe- cial assembly. Not only must LC men make themselves indispensable' to the squad, but they must also maintain re- quired standards of scholarship, no small matter in view of the hours spent in practice. LC club members ushered at home basketball games and participated in the Memorial Day activities, honoring Central's war dead. Mr. Hanson, who re-A turned for the second semester, advised the club. A member of the losing team tries a desperation shot. 3 Intramurals Intramural basketball, managed by Mark Sutton and Huey Frey, was again popular. Ten teams, sporting Big Ten names, played against each other every Thursday night and Friday after school. The championship went to the undefeat- ed Arenz Shoe Store team, the only team without a college name and also one of the two teams with uniforms. The season was mainly characterized by roughness, unintentional and otherwise. The games were played in 8 minute quarters with a short rest at the half. Sizes of the teams ranged from 5 to lO players. Of the 3 classes, seniors had the greatest number participating. The season was enjoyed from the side lines by boys and girls from all classes. The ball carrier is tagged for a loss. Page 93 Page 94 G. A. A. R. Min-ksclil, M. Rocllich, J. Bucder, N. Wahlstrom, P. Frcng, B. Erickson, G. Kline. The Girls' Athletic Association still boasts a larger number of girls participating than any other club at Central. Only sixty of these girls, however, who have paid dues, are recognized as active members and will receive points and letters for their participa- tion in the sports. Membership is open to all Central girls interested in sports. G.A.A. is one of Central's few organizations that does not conduct tryouts for applicants or initiate its new members. The management of this club is inthe hands of an executive board composed of three officers and six sport leaders under the guidance of Mrs. Bradford. The middle of January again found the gym ringing with the shouts and laughter of G.A.A. members as basketball teams began their annual tournament. Sixty- three girls practiced tricky shots while patiently trying to remember the new rule of limited dribble which was made the spring before. Organization of mem- bers found the girls divided into six teams, three having eleven, and three ten players. Confusion ran wild as two games were played at once on the divided gym floor, and the new limited dribble rule was the cause of much laughter. Stiff competition between teams kept every- one tense and on the alert. In this round robin tournament no team was eliminated after a loss. With ten victories Charlotte Rogers's team became the l95l cham- pions with Leah Kupferschmid and Betty Eide leading their teams close behind. Since officials were supplied by teams sitting it out, members obtained ex- perience in refereeing and keeping score. Jackie Jones was manager. Top Row: IN1. Sill, N. Rm-llit-li, G. Kline, J.

Belligerem' Batters On April l9th sixty-seven girls armed with bats and balls took over Hixon Field to begin the G.A.A. softball season. Bless- ed by warm sunshine, they were able to play every Wednesday through May 24th. These girls, numbering thirty-three jun- iors, twenty-seven sophomores, and seven seniors, organized themselves into four teams under captains H. Hale, J. Bock, J. Arnet, and S. Fontish. The l95O season ended with the teams of H. Hale and S. Fontish tied for first honors. Watching teammates despair as runner is out home plate. Top Row: B. Dannhoff, M. Sill, M. Taarvig, A. Krueger, M.

Fancy Footers Speedball, managed by Nona Lee Nel- son, gave a brisk start to the l95O G.A.A. schedule. Ninety-five girls, divided into six teams, kept Hixon Field alive every Wednesday evening for six weeks. Two games, played simultaneously, started the evening's fun, while two teams on the sidelines awaited their turn. After stren- uous first halves, as the players rested, the waiting teams demonstrated their skill. Elimination of losers left Helen Buckan's team the champions. at Enthusiastic speedball players took over Hixon Field every Wednesday evening in early fall. Poge 95 Fancy paddling The maiority of G.A.A. members chose the non tournament game of badminton as their minor sport Diverse Diversions Girls taking part in individual sports considered each Wednesday evening in December and January as their special fun night. Ninety-five enthusiastic GAA. members could be seen scurrying after the badminton rackets, saving Ping- pong tables in the balcony for one ana other, or stuffing hair under waterproof caps getting ready for a long swim in the pool. The gym floor chalked into three courts gave twelve girls playing doubles the chance to perfect their badminton Frolicking Dolphins watch as Margie Riek tries her skills. The balcony, still ringing with Save me a table, was the scene of many fatiguing Ping-pong games. Both of these minor sports were non-tournament games managed by Marie Roellich. Pat Freng, manager of swimming, always heard the cry of Free swim as girls took to the pool and began the vigorous practice of diving skills and swimming strokes. The purpose of this season of varied fun is, as the name implies, just fun and the enjoy- able exercise it affords. Mrs. Bradford is adviser. Orchesis members are pointing toes, a typical skill on the board. dance pose. Page 96 Top Row: M. Rick. F. Butterfield, J. Bacclcr, J. Ammerman, M. Betz, L. Torgerson, E. Jones. Second Row: M.

Judy Shanesy, president, Ruth Kilian, vice-president, and Shirlee Fontish, secretary-treasurer, are the executives with Mrs. Bradford as adviser. Budrlmg Ballermczs Central's modern dancers added color to the music department's holiday pro- gram by interpreting 'Twas the Night before Christmas as sung by the Choir. This Orchesis presentation was complete with toys, sugar plum fairies, reindeer, and Santa. The dancers' second project was the assembly, HoIiday Inn. ln both, costuming and dance patterns were orig- inal. Officers were S. Fontish, pres., L. Hanson, v.-pres., J.

Activities A parade of floats, a queen and her court, a football game, and a dance made the sec- ond annual Fall Festival a day crowded with fun and excitement. Jeanne Huston, Joyce Schmidt, Ruth Smevog, Delores Capicotto, and Geri Giraud, members of the court, assisted Noranne Byers in reigning over the activities. A parade proceeded from Central Alumni, as well as students, packed Hixon Gym on December 22nd to see a select alumni team beat the varsity 64 to 30. The victorious alumni aggregation, composed of outstanding players of the past ten years, had practiced only once before the encoun- ter. During the half, Tom Thompson pre- sented roses to Queen Ruth Kilian and her court of six. to Memorial Field, scene of the gaiety. Col- orful floats, sponsored by school organiza- tions and students, took a prominent place in the fun. Clayton Wiggert won the first of the float prizes, Masquers the second, and Orchesis the third. The Central grid team's 54-O victory over Cresco, Iowa, highlighted the day. The frolic concluded with a dance. lt's been a long time- and Merry Christmas resounded throughout the gym at the second annual Alumni Dance. For this gala occasion on December 22nd students and alumni danced to music by the Senti- mental Stylists. Elected by the students as queen, Ruth Kilian chose Roger Monson as king, Graduates of the last two classes were invited. l Page l OO S. T. C Activities Dashing posters, banners, tags, and hand- bills gayly festooned the halls for two weeks previous to the spring S. T. C. presidential election which was unique in that there were five candidates. Each of these, Tom Hicke, John Westerlund, Lee Rozelle, Richard Herlitzka, and Ralph Secrist, victor, was limited to ten dollars for campaign expenses. To promote co-operation among the high schools Central's S. T. C. began a movement to form a tri-school council known as the La Crosse Federation of Student Councils. After preliminary meetings a constitution was drawn up and ratified. Representatives from each school include seven delegates and one adviser. Throughout the contest, noontime bands played and fiery soapbox speeches were de- livered. To climax the electioneering the contestants staged a seventy-five minute assembly at which skits were presented, bands played, and humorous songs were warbled. Loyal supporters offered peppy speeches. The students voted on May l8th. Centralites rushed madly to booths after the sixth period bell rang to buy pieces of cake and pie to satisfy famished appetites. This pastry sale, sponsored by the S. T. C., was held in March. The council members donated delicious pumpkin, apple, cherry, and graham cracker pie, as well as various kinds of homemade cakes. v Page lOl Eager anticipation was written on the faces of both boys and girls as they look- ed at twirp dance posters. The girl-ask- boy affair, sponsored by the Social Com- mittee, was held in the gym on November lOth. Couples attending rated the dance so successful that the committee plans to make the affair an annual event. Silver and varying shades of blue brought moonlight magic into the gym on May 22nd for the Junior Prom. Seated on a silver crescent moon Carrie Bell, queen, accepted her crown from King Tom Frey. The sweat box was trans- formed into a garden, the punch served from a wishing well. The ISO couples danced to Bob Silva's music. Dances Page l O2 A snow man greeted arrivals at the second winter formal on February lOth at which decorations in white and blue ef- fectively carried out the Sno-Ball theme. Instead of corsages of real flowers, the girls wore those which they had ingen- iously fashioned out of inexpensive mate- rials. The Sentimental Stylists furnished the music. Once again Central's halls rang with laugh and iest at the annual Halloween Party. l-lot dogs, cheerios, and coke made up the evening's menu. Along with the annual movies the Barbershop Chorus sang. While merry moderns danced in the gym, which was decorated by the Art Club, card players and kibitzers filled the game rooms. Adults' Page As a climax to the Valentine Festival, the Red Raider Rooters Club held a dance at which they presented a parade of queens of La Crosse. These included Noranne Byers and Ruth Kilian from Cen- tral, Betty Murphy from Aquinas, Mar- lene Voves from Logan, and Jean Marie Bottcher, the Snow Queen. All were es- corted by TC football stars. The S.P.E.B.S.Q.S.A., The Society for the Preservation and Education of Barber Shop Quartet Singing in America, under the direction of Mr. Mikelson, thrilled Centralites with its harmonious perform- ance during the Halloween program. Pre- senting old time favorites, the Barber Shop Quartet sang after a movie was shown in the auditorium. Annually, one evening early in Novem- ber, the tables are turned when parents literally go to schooI. Mom and dad, program in hand, pass through the halls and wander up and down stairs to attend ten-minute classes. They wind up in the cafeteria for a refreshing cup of coffee and a social chat with the faculty. lt took more than sub-zero weather in January to keep the P. T. A. away from a student-adult panel on Teen-age Driv- ers. The adults taking part represented an insurance company, the police, and faculty. Karl Schubert and Terry Ziemann presented views of the teen-agers, while Mr, Hale served as moderator, Page lO3 Page Two-I e g g e d reindeer and jolly Saint Nick him- s e l f, impersonated by m e m b e r s of Orchesis, danced onto the stage as the Choir and Mixed Chorus sang 'Twas the Night before Christmas. With the Choir in Christ- mas tree formation on either side of the stage singing the story, The Christmas Choralogue was portrayed in tableaus of fa m i l i a r Christmas scenes. The Swing Choir, presenting the third part of the program, sang The Song of Christmas. 4 l lO4 Masquers and Harle- quins climaxed weeks of practice, directed by Miss Brady and Miss Cote, as theypresented Jane Eyre to a full house on April 22nd, ln the title role of this well-known novel was Ruth Kilian with Earl Webster oppo- site her as Mr. Rochester. Dolores Gifford as a hard working housemaid, Leah, and Caroline Keller as the housekeeper, Mrs. Fair- fax, played the other leads. Teachers College stu- dents discussing the Mc- C a r r a n Anti-subversive Plan held the rapt atten- tion of Central students at the annual T. C. Forum assembly. After the fiye panel members had dis- cussed the pros and cons of the issue, the discus- sion was opened to the audience. The students evidenced keen interest in the subject, as questions poured forth from every corner of the auditorium. Good Night, lrene, echoing through the gym in the husky voices of the senior boys, provided a vigorous beginning for their annual assembly. The almost mechanical response of the masculine gym classes to the orders issued by Mr. Weigent and the many tricks they performed to l d of strenuous rehearsal be- forehand. Colorful togs and queer hats worn by the performers added to the fun. i On to Madison was the slogan for this year's magazine campaign. Cele- brating his 25 Years with the Crowell-Collier Pub- lishing C o m pa n y, Mr. Nick Engler, who once again explained the carn- paign, was presented by Mr. Weigent with a Scotch curler's cap. Home Room 203 and six high salesmen went to Madison to the state tournament. First prize, a S25 bond, was awarded to C. Stokke. Here's a cheer for Central High School, Central's s c h o ol song, echoes from the gym dur- ing each pep rally which serves as a spirit rouser. Ear splitting yells led by cheerleaders, pep talks by Mr. Scott and the coaches, and spirited selections by the band constitute a typ- ical pep assembly. Be- cause of a better response from the student body, the auditorium housed the last two pep rallies. Page lO5 l. One of the many floats entered in the Fall FesHvaL 2.

Page I O8 I n Reverence 1 SSS Central High students, facing the Cass Street entrance, bowed their heads in rev- erent silence as Glenn Johnson sounded reveille at the Memorial Day Assembly. Father Vinter led the assemblage in prayer, following which the choir sang God of Our Fathers. Sharon Preidel delivered an ap- propriate address commemorating the war dead. The L. C. boys solemnly marched down the stairs to form a guard of honor through which passed color bearers preceding Sally Frey and Molly Hale carrying the memorial wreaths, Returning, all paused at the steps for the pledge of allegiance. After taps sounded, the entire student body walked quietly back to classes.
