In early June, the class of 1953 will walk through the doors for the last time as students. In the years to come they, as well as juniors and sophomores will reflect on their school experience as some of the best years of their lives. In using The Circus as our theme this year, we were amazed at some of the parallels we found between school world and circus world. We feel that education could claim as its motto The Greatest Show on Earthf' Our Big Top is a blonde-brick, block-long building permanently pitched on Fourth Street and playing a long season each year. We dressed our faculty up in Ringmaster suits -they are essential to keep the show moving. We think we rightly applied the circus term for sea- soned, experienced performers to our Seniors when we called them Troupers . Johnny-come- lately's are what the circus people call those who have had some experience but are not quite at the topg by this term we designate our Juniors. And the Sophomores? Circus terminolgy comes through again-calling its people with little or no experience First of Mays who will one day be- come the envied Troupers . We invite you to tour with us Along the Midway where you will find your clubs and other activity groups. Note how handsome our Strongmen look in their R.O.T.C. uniforms and gaze at the muscles of our agile sportsmen, the Acrobats . Pause with us before the Windjammers, and let your memory whistle some of the musical notes that we have enjoyed hearing from our music groups. We hope you will enjoy this book and agree with us that schooling is one of the greatest shows on earth. PAGE 4 -yo- , , 5. N, .aff 51' -F N, Q rs. , 4 5 A F' fi 4 .

EMIDA DAWES Too often those who work quietly and modestly behind the scenes to achieve a greater beauty and consequently more happiness for us all pass among us unrecognized and unheralded. We do not wish this common error to be repeated in the case of our Mrs. Dawes. , To this gracious lady, who for many years has not only aided in making our annual a more attractive book, but has in many and various ways added beauty to our building and our activities, We very happily dedicate the 1953 Beloiter. :ve ii vauaamia Q55 QUEWEWTS ag mfeg zs 2 aim MW cm mm a 12 ra a f TQQMPQQSZ SEIFDUCZDQQBS kDEDi'fUlTUlTUVf2 CIBGJJUTTDE S- LQTELVSSJMWUQEQS FMST:QF:mmvS:sQmwmmmgs GSJEQUWEUUEJHSTIJQRCQITUEJDIDJ PCQTJCEMUDTV L .

This year the Administration of Memorial High School of Beloit is proud to announce that three of its graduating students qualify to H11 the position of Valedictorian. jean Johnson, Frank Wong and Suzanne Geier completed their high school careers with a 4.0 average. jean Johnson is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Loyd D. Johnson of 1445 Bayliss Ave- nue. Moving to Beloit from Neosho, Missouri, Jean attended Wheeler School and Lincoln Junior High School. As yet, her plans for the future are indefinite, but she hopes that she will be able to attend Beloit College. Frank Wong is the son of Mrs. Charles Wong of 1015 Lincoln Avenue. Frank at- tended Royce School and Lincoln Junior High School. Future plans for Frank include college work in the field of psychology, but he has not determined where he will attend school. Suzanne Geier is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Geier of 10212 White Avenue. Sue attended Todd School, Powers School and Roosevelt Junior High School in Beloit and also attended schools in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Sue plans to enter Whitewater State College where she will prepare to become a secondary school teacher.

It will not be long before commencement will be rolling by. But even though com- mencement will come and go, our memories of the past three years will not fade away. Remember, in our Sophomore year, we were promised to be the first Sophomore class to move into the new high school. By the end of March the promise was fulfilled. The building seemed so big that we thought we would never be able to find our way around. Our class officers, President, Frank Wong, Vice President, Larry Williams, and Secretary, Pat Maryott, did a wonderful job. The biggest thrill of our junior year was selecting our class rings. Some of our lucky juniors were able to go on the spring trip to Washington, D. C. during Easter vacation. Jerry Werle and Pat Archambault ruled as Junior king and queen at the junior-Senior prom. We elected Frank Wong, Pete Samuels, and Pat Larson as President, Vice Presi- dent, and Secretary of our Junior class. Then came our Senior-year-the best! We were Big Eight champions in football when we beat Kenosha with a score of 13 to 6. Reigning over the homecoming game was queen Marilyn Miller and her court. Another big thrill in sports was our basketball team's trip to Madison for the State Tournament. Nice work boys! During the month of November, we had a mock election which was a big success. The choir, art, and dramatic classes com- bined to produce the first operetta to appear in Beloit for 20 years, The Mikado. Every- one did a swell job and we were very proud of them. Two plays highlighted our Senior year, Father of the Bride, and our Senior class play, Arsenic and Old Lace. Senior king and queen at the Junior-Senior prom were Jerry Werle and Pat Archambault. In the Senior court were Pat Larson, Chuck Hogan, Tom Pratt, and Barbara Lange. Co- editors of the Beloiter were Pat Larson and Wes Nelson. Jean Johnson and Bettina Myers headed the Increscent. Our student council officers were Frank Wong, Jerry Werle, Fern Green, and Marilyn Miller. The Senior Class Officers were: Pete Samuels, Presidentg Chuck Hogan, Vice President, and Pat Larson, Secretary. These three years of our lives will never be forgotten and we only hope that the rest of our lives will be just as wonderful as these, our high school years.

PAGE 38 A Johnny-come-latelys Left to right: W. Mason, Pres.: S. Vogt, Sec.: C. Lamb, V. Pres. We, as Juniors, are completing the third of the four steps in our high school career. We have had some tasks set before us, and we have completed them. We have also had some fun, and we're sure there will be more of both in store for us. The first matter at hand this year, was the election of class officers. The three stu- dents which were selected are both capable and worthy of the job. They were: Wesley Mason as president, Clifford Lamb-Vice president and Sharon Vogt-Secretary-treasurer. The class officers along with Tom Favour, jon Jacka, Geraldine Purnell and Diane Van Cleave, with Miss Dorothy Dunn as faculty advisor, selected three rings. These rings were then put before the whole Junior class for election. Mixed in with these pleasant tasks, we remember Hqgnecoming and the floats made by jr. homerooms, the Friday night dances and sock-hops, the games, the gang and all. In the spring came the long awaited Junior-Senior Prom. This year's theme was Star Dust. With the help of the Senior royalty, our Junior King, Wes Mason and his Queen Lois Wilcox made this a truly memorable evening. Also on the Junior court were: jim Brabazon with Carol Ottow and Fritz Grutzner with Janice Holmes. The juniors also took an active part in the all school play, Father of the Bride. Gerry Purnell and Margaret Salamone had leading roles. Along with the play, the juniors helped serve for the Senior Banquet. i PAGE 39 Johnny-come-latelys PAGE 40 S. Aide D. Alba C. Albright R.

Scurrying to and fro in the corridors, getting trampled on by upper-classmen and being tardy to class were soon put aside with a smile as we became accustomed to the routine of high school life. When the time came for the election of class officers, we proved ourselves worthy of choosing capable representatives by electing Jim Walker, Presidentg jim Luety, Vice Presi- dent: and Judy Moore, Secretary-Treasurer. A never-to-be-forgotten event was our homecoming with Kenosha. We selected Dena McCauley and Judy Moore to appear on the Queen's Court as representatives of the sophomore class. Our football team emerged with a victorious 13-6 score, also winning the Big Eight Conference Championship. In November, under the direction of the Biology teachers, we went on an excursion to Chicago. We had our choice of going either to the Museum of Science and Industry or the Museum of Natural History. All too soon, the year will end. Fond memories of our sophomore year will long be cherished and we shall look forward to being Juniors. PAGE 49 F irst-of-Mays ROW 1-P. Bauman, J. Adams, J. Bakke, M.

Kvitle Principal Assistant Principal -TO THE CLASS OF 1953: Again we come to the day of graduation when another class of more than three hun- dred fifty seniors complete their last formal exercises as members of Memorial High School. Yours is the last class to have attended Beloit High School in the old building on Grand Avenue. May this change from quarters in an old, outmoded, and over-crowded building to the new, spacious, and beautiful surroundings of Memorial High School sym- bolize the progress which we should continually strive to achieve in our democratic soci- ety, whether in our personal affairs, those of our community and state, or in our nation. We hope that in our high school you have learned to establish for yourself high standards of' life-in the achievement of your economic goals, in the maintenance of your personal relationships, in the further continuance of your education, and in your discharge of the obligations of citizenship-ever keeping in mind that basic to these are moral and spiritual concepts of the highest order. More than ever in the past, the life of our demo- cracy depends upon a citizenship which, is imbued with these principles. The quality of your education will be measured in terms of these standards.

The Department of Pupil Personnel has for its general function the responsibility of forming a link between the school, home and the community to try to solve pupil problems. The department works in large part with pupil problems the solution of which require contacts outside of the school. Some of the pupil personnel problems with which the department works are: 1. Investigating conditions which make regular school attendance difficult for the pupil. 2. Helping parents and school staff understand the problems of the pupil who is not happy in school. x 3. Helping the pupil and parent with their problems, or making a contact with an agency or person who can help with the problems of the pupil. 4. Maintaining a permanent cumulative record for each child who attends Beloit schools. 5. Helping pupils secure part time or full time employment. 6. Issuing Wisconsin Industrial Commission Minor Labor Permits. 7. Helping pupils with transportation problems. 8. Helping pupils get an education whose health prevents them from attending classes in school. PAGE 73 X ix Q!! Q - 5Q3QQQ ikf, Q M Z Q2 fi! M 34 N3 X9 S J' .fj X , Q? ,gf EX?

Pres. 1. Werle. Pres. F. Wong. Sec. F. Green, Treas. M. Miller, Advisor Mr, Kvitle. After a spirited campaign in the spring elections last year election results produced the Student Council officers for this year. Frank Wong, Fern Green and Marilyn Miller, who campaigned together on the same ticket, became President, Secretary and Treasurer respectively. Jerry Werle, by virtue of his runner-up position in the presidential race, be- came vice president. Credit for leadership in the Council must be laid with these officers for they accepted the full responsibility of their posts from beginning to end. They handled their duties with a minimum of help from Mr. Kvitle and under their guidance the Council enjoyed a prosperous and successful year. Each week the officers met to plan the Council meetings and determine various poli- cies. In the fall, they conducted a vigorous campaign to have capable representatives elected to the Council. Often times they assumed leadership of committees or acted as advisors to the committees. As a group, the Council officers guided the policies and the projects of the Council.

A successful and active Student Council program was carried on this year with the emphasis on the development of student leadership and participation. Under the guidance of the elected officers and the advisor, Mr. Ole Kvitle, the Council handled the traditional projects in addition to introducing several new ones. Outstanding contributions were made by members of the Council who spent a great deal of time and effort in order to complete the projects. Annual affairs like Homecoming, Junior-Senior Prom, pre-Janesville game bonfire and snake dance, sale of Homecoming buttons and the publication and sale of Student Di- rectories were sponsored and executed. Throughout the year the Council maintained weekly dances and noon hour movies Delegates were sent to the State Student Council Convention and to the District and State Youth Conferences. Under the auspices of the Council, the Beloit Youth Center was estab- lished at the high school. Exchange meetings were held with the Janesville Student Council and in May a Big Eight Convention was held in Beloit under the co-sponsorship of the two councils to pro- mote better relations among Big Eight schools. In November, a mock election was held to correlate with the national election. Stu- dents voted under the same procedures that are used in public polls. Salt water taffy was sold as the Council raised funds to purchase useful articles for the school. One of the highlights of the year was the Student-Teacher Christmas Dinner, the first of its kind to be held. Faculty members were invited to a turkey dinner and surprised with gifts from the student body. The Student Council is proud of its achievements this year and greatly appreciates the support it has received. PAGE 77 National Honor Society ROW l-L. Lyon, P. Palmer, J. Spillner, P. Bruck, G.

J erry Fisher Resolved: That The North Atlantic Treaty Nations Should Form A Federal Union With this as their question, the Debate Club had a busy and successful year. On the Friday of the teachers convention in the fall they went to Milwaukee to hear Marquette debate Wisconsin before the teachers. It was here they first learned the question for the year. The next day the club went to a debate seminar held on the Northwestern campus, and learned more of the techniques of debating. In the fall and early winter they held several practice debates among themselves and other schools in the surrounding areas. A group of seven debaters and Mr. Gaffney went to Gustavus Adolphus College in St. Peter, Minnesota, to a debate tournament in january. Debators who went on the trip were Bob Harrnuth, jerry Fisher, Frank Wong, Jon Dutton, Frank Parker, Bill Voss, and Wes Nelson. All learned more about debate besides enjoying their visit in St. Peter. In the tournament they Won six debates and lost three. In the District contest held in Madison they won three debates and lost three, having needed a 4-2 record to go on to the State tournament. Frank Parker and Bill Voss debated the negative case and Frank Wong and Jerry Fisher, the affirmative, representing Beloit in Madison. In the Spring they held a banquet for those members who had been active throughout the year and had earned enough points to attend. PAGE 84 Forensics ROW l-D. Winger, J. Krutsch, S. Sherwood, S.

N ancy Bellard Interested in furthering their proficiency in the business world, the Commercial Club made several excursions this year in an effort to attain that goal. The activities of the Commercial Club were underway as the officers were elected. Combining the efforts of all, they then constructed a Homecoming float which they thought was rather good, and it must have been that the judges did too because they awarded them with third prize. Then followed a series of bake sales, the profit from which was put in the treasury in the hope of using it for a trip in the spring. As the first signs of spring appeared, the hopes for excursion trips soon began to be realized. On April 22, they toured the Second National Bank of Beloit. The outstanding trip of the year, however, was made to Milwaukee on May 6. At that time the First Na- tional Bank, Spencerian College, WTMJ' Radio Station, the Journal office, and Prospect Hall were visited, while a shopping spree completed the varied activities of the day. Additional enjoyment was procured when they were given a demonstration of the tech- niques of typing by Cortez Peters who has an official typing record of 141 net five-stroke words per minute for one hour of continuous writing. He is holder of the Wor1d's Portable Typing Championship and winner of the World's Professional Accuracy Award. PAGE 90 Art Club ROW 1-C. Hazlett, M. Haylett, D. Hutton, J. Pease, U. Grauel, M.

Don't let the stars get in your eyes The Stage Crew at Beloit High School is an activity that few of the students in the high school know about. However, if it were not for the Stage Crew many of the unique stage settings that we see would not be present. Much of the work done by the Stage Crew is maintenance work. Our school is very fortunate in having all the modern stage facilities of today. The Stage Crew enjoys the luxury of the counter weight system employed with the flies, of which we have thirty-two: the flexibility in lighting that comes from having forty spotlights and a switch-board that is the heart of the lighting system in the theatre. The Stage Crew is under the direction of Mrs. Reinholz of the Dramatics Department. PAGE 93 Hostess Club ROW 1-M. Willoughby, C. Wilson, S. Sherwood, C. Burn, M. Granberg. P. Vanderbeek, P. Nielsen.

The Hostess Club first functioned as a group to wait on table for the Christmas dinner given by the Student Council for the faculty. The girls had so much fun that they decided to organize as a club. There are no officers and no dues. The main objective is service, but the girls feel that they are learning, too, because each banquet at which they serve is a little different from the one before. Beside the Student Council-Faculty dinner, the Hostess Club served at the Boy Scout Leadership banquet in February, the B-E Day luncheon and the B-E-A banquet in April, and the Pill Whiffers dinner in May.

We Deal in Sight and Sound From Mr. Wootton, advisor of Audio-Visual, comes these words: These, and a few other students, operated motion picture projectors in your classes this year. In very few instances were students asked to sacrihce their study hour, to do this work. Our student operators ran the projectors in their own classes. This method proved to be advisable. The projecting became a part of their class activity. Many times the films were shown twice, per class. After most showings the machine was made ready for use by the next class. i Our greatest problem is at the beginning of the yearg it is necessary to secure the names of the people, in the various departments, who are interested in this work. Students who are not already familiar with the mechanics of operation are given training and op- portunity to practice. When they have demonstrated their ability to handle the equip- ment they are ready for operation of projectors in classes. The ideal arrangement is to have at least two student operators in each department, or in each subdivision of a large department. Equal experience is given to each operator. Our operators are commended for their excellent cooperation and for their handling of programs in the various classes, throughout the year, in a careful and skillful manner.

Some projects they under- take as a service to the communityg others for their own pleasures. This year the Jr. Y- Teens have been represented in activities with the other clubs as well as special programs of their own. The Jrs. participated in sending chocolates for Christmas to foreign coun- tries, and in the open house planned to entertain the mothers. Almost the entire cast of characters for Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs was made up of Jr. girls. Marilyn Johnson as Snow White and Margaret Salamone as the Prince were two of the most important. As a project of their own the Jrs. sponsored a style show, given by a leading depart- ment store, and invited all the other clubs in the city. Also they sent Marilyn Johnson as a delegate to two conventions this year. The girls Find Y-Teens a very worth while organization. PAGE 106 Sophomore Y -Teens ROW l-E. Wheeler, V. Fish. C.

Among some of the routine activities that the boys participate in are playing basketball with out of town Hi-Y teams, swimming in the local Y pool, using the gym there and view- ing a varied movie program. This year the group had the honor of winning first prize for their float in the Home- coming parade. The float represented a pirate ship and floated the motto We'l1 Make Kenosha Walk the Plank. In December they sent Terry Ettner, Robert Vivian and Peter Heiman as their representatives to the Youth and Government Conference in Madi- son. The group presented a bill at a mock legislation session held at the conference. Although the group has been without an official advisor during the greater part of this year, Mr. E.

Also for the first time in several years two boy cheerleaders were chosen, who were Joe Nelson and Jerry Werle. Along with the boys were four peppy girls, who were Egie Bailey, Becky Honor, Carol Hefti, and Alice Porter. One of the highlights of the year was a pep assembly, sponsored by the cheerleaders, reviewing the Evolution of Cheerleading , beginning with the cave-man and finishing with the 20th Century, Miss Cheerleader of '53. The students enjoyed it very much. On nights of home games as well as games away, cheers could be heard echoing thru out the city. Without the support of the students this wouldn't have been possible. From the beginning of football season until the state basketball tournament at Madison the Be- loit High School spirit has hit an all time high.

Ideas for floats and suggestions for queen were Hying through the air. The eventful day Finally dawned. The entire day was spent in assembling Hoats. At 2:30 the parade left the high school and started for town. Along with the Hoats, R.O.T.C., band, cheerleaders, and football players came the girls to be on the court. The crowning of the queen took place in front of some eight or nine thousand spec- tators. Marilyn Miller received this honor and was crowned queen by Frank Wong, presi- dent of the Student Council. Serving on her court were Pat Larson, Ursula Grauel, Diane Van Cleave, Sharon Vogt, Dena McCauley, and Judy Moore. Float winners were Barger Hi-Y's Weill Whip Kenosha, the Art Club's It's Written in the Stars and the Commercial Club's Time Travels-Kenosha Kant.

The theme w a s Stardust and the dec- orations were carried out with a blue sky with sil- ver stars shining through. The highlight of the evening was the corona- tion of the Kings and Queens. The Senior King was Jerry Werle. He chose Pat Archambault as his Queen. Members of their court were: Chuck Hogan and Pat Larson, Tom Pratt and Barbara Lange. The Junion King was Wes Mason and his Queen was Lois Wilcox. The court consisted of Fritz Gruetzner and Janice Holmes, Jim Brabazon and Carole Ot- tow.

This recognition came in the form of a dinner which included students from the Student Council, faculty and the servicemen. The cafeteria was very effectively decorated using the Christmas theme. The meal consisted of turkey and all the trimmings. After the meal was finished everyone Went to the Community Room for a little enter- tainment. With the Swing Band playing and Jerry Werle acting as Master of Ceremonies, the remainder of the evening proved to be quite a success. A series of teacher lyrics set to a popular Christmas song added a laugh for every teacher. Santa Claus was there too. He presented the faculty men with a radio and an ashtray for their room and the women re- ceived a radio and a set of pictures for their room. The evening proved to be a huge success and we hope that the future students of Be- loit High School will make this an annual affair. PAGE 122 Big '68 H Convention 1 T 8 . a O v ' ' ..-A May 2nd was the date of the Hrst Big 8 Convention of Student Councils. Schools from each of the Big 8 sent representatives with 85 attending. The Beloit and Janesville Councils acted as Co-sponsores of the affair. The purpose of the Convention was to be decided in the morning session. After much discussion the purpose was determined to be the development of a Big 8 Council. The session was broken down into seven Workshops. They were: 1. The improvement of our Student Councils. 2. Steps to be taken to form the Big 8 Council. 3. Cheerleaders and their problems. 4. Functions of the Big 8 Council. 5. Social functions in the schools. 6. The interchange of ideas of similar organizations in the schools. 7. Hospitality between the schools at athletic contests. . At 12 :OO the luncheon was served in the cafeteria. In the afternoon a general session was held with each group reporting the findings of their workshop. The assembly then tool: definite steps to ioimulate a Big 8 Council by electing a planning committee made up of representatives from each school and then de- ciding to hold another Convention next fall. These plans for a Big 8 Council to promote better inter-school relations are unprecedented and the Beloit High School Student Coun- cil is proud of the part it played in initiating the movement. A social get-together was held for the remainder of the afternoon with everyone par- ticipating in dancing and refreshments.

D ale Fuller This year the 15th annual concert under the leadership of Donald B. Cuthbert was held March 22nd and 24th. A few of the numbers were: the Robin Hood Suite. by Frederic Durzong Andante Cantabile, by Tschaikowsky: the overture, La Forza Destino, by G. Verdi. There were three feature numbers in this year's concert. The Three Modernaires, a coronet trio, was presented by Gordon Gower, Donald Morris, and David Palmer. Mary Jo Mountain displayed a great deal of talent in the Piano Concerto in A Minor. The Klazon, featuring the new bell front altos, was presented by Ted Streseman, Lucia Spooner, Gloria Peglow and Tom Favour. During the first few months the band spent practically all of its time marching and working out difficult formations. The formations were displayed by the band during half-time. At the close of the football season the band began work on the winter concert. Along with the concert came the solo-ensemble contest. With this work, a great deal of individual and group musician- ship was developed. To celebrate Mr. Cuthbert's 15th year as director of the Beloit High School band, a banquet was given in his honor, May 7, at the Boat Club. Everyone had a wonderful time. This.year the band has added to its Fine reputation. The members. as well as the students of Beloit High and the citizens of Beloit may well be proud of this excellent organization.

Cuthbert, has worked exceptionally hard to improve and perfect their musicianship. The concert, which was held in May, consisted of many interesting numbers. Several of the numbers were: the overture, Lucille, by Gretryg the Unfinished Symphony, by Schubert, and The Waltzing Cat, by Leroy Anderson. During the year, a string quartet was formed. They performed at many different clubs and organizations. In the group were Mary Jo Mountain, lst violin, Phyllis Nielson, nd violin, Margie Gordon, viola, and Jackie Johnson, cello. They have done a fine job and deserve rnuch recognition. One of the highlights of the year was the tour to neighboring cities where the orches- tra played excerpts from the concert. As the close of the year drew near, the students began their study on solos and en- semble work. They participated in the solo-ensemble contest held May 23, 1953. This year, the orchestra has proved itself to be a very fine musical organization. May we congratulate them and especially Mr. Cuthbert for their excellent work.

The Best I've Seen!!', Such were the comments after the choir's brilliant presentation of Gilbert 8: Su11ivan's operetta, The Mikado. Critics claimed it excelled many a professional performance. Gorgeous stage properties and costumes created the gay and colorful oriental atmosphere that completed the musical satire. . Mr. DeBruyne's cast included members of the varsity choir, girls chorus, and also people who did not take these classes. Weeks of practice, a trip to Chicago to see a pro- fessional cast in the Mikado, and hard work on the part of many individuals made the production a thrill that will live among the fondest of memories. Excellent training brought fine results in the Christmas program which was given with great perfection by the choir and girl's chorus. The boy's chorus from Roosevelt Jr. High School also participated in this program. Through out the concert scenes of captivating beauty were illustrated by using a scrim. Choral groups gave many programs in the communityg local clubs, the hospital. church groups and others. TheSpring concert, given in May, was received enthusiasti- cally. Choral activities came to an end with the Baccalaureate service. Congratulations to the '52-'53 choir on a wonderfully successful year.

The decorations consisted of a red, white, and blue canopy of crepe paper illuminated by colored spotlights. The main attraction was a huge eagle perched on the top of a seven- foot shield, casting a patriotic affect on the cccasion. The traditional receiving line was present as in the past. It included Capt. and Mrs. Peterson, Sgt. and Mrs. Kiper, retired Sgt. and Mrs. Smith, and Mr. and Mrs. Jones. Tribune awards were made to Batt. Maj. Dan Misner, Capt. Herb Baldwin, and Lt. Karl Shaner. During the Intermission, the McNeel Rifles, under the command of Capt. Frank Robi- son, performed various movements of intricate drill that was a show of perfection. The Grand March was led by Maj. Dan Misner with all couples moving in a forma- tion about the room. It was terminated by the Arch of Sabers. We would like to add a word of thanks to all those who make this annual affair pos- sible and to the committees that worked so faithfully to make it a success. PAGE 150 gm A 'fi I A Q v S Wx .

In his coaching at Beloit Memorial High School he has inspired and coached many boys. He has made the average boys into the best of men. He has worked diligently with the boys on the football Held. He has not only taught them the game of football, he has taught and showed them that you have to work, and work hard to achieve a certain goal and that you must have good sportsmanship at all times. As a teacher in the class room he has proven just as great an inspiration. In all sincerity we are proud to give recognition and dedication of this section to Coach Paul Nee. PAGE 152 fLeft to rightj: Coaches Nee Clinej, Currier fhead coachj, Haglund Ur. Var.j. Coach Ken Currier and his staff guided their team to an undefeated season this year, the first since 1936. Also Mr. Currier shared the Coach of the Year Award with Coach Russ Pollock of Kenosha. In just three years of being a head coach in the Big 8, it is truly a great honor to receive such an award. Mr. Currier coached six boys to all conference berths. They were: Bob Brewer, Tom Pratt, Charles Gladney and Richard Gupton, on the offensive team and Jerry Vance and Walter Oldenburg on the defensive team. Tom Pratt was recognized as one of the best line men in the State and got a unanimous vote for the all conference position as did Bob Brewer. Tom Pratt was elected the Captain of the year and Dick Gupton most valuable. These two outstanding pllayers along with every member of the squad are to be commended for their I-ine work. We can well be proud of these boys as our football representatives. Varsity Letter Winners were: M. Bandy, R. Bartholomew, S. Bolen, R. Brewer, T. Christofferson, D. Ennis, G. Foster, C. Gladney, G.

Besides Coach Ericksorfs fine coaching, the team was highly spirited with the determination to win and showed speed and aggressiveness in each game. It was a proud bunch of fans that followed the team this season and they had every right to be proud of such a fine team.

Bill Watson and Jerry Vance received special honors by being elected second string al1-confer- ence players.

Mason's first half splurge and Vance's sparkling fioor play helped give Beloit its large margin. n Beloit 70 Madison East 48 Beloit's fast break helped give them their first Big Eight win. It was also Coach Erickson's Big Eight debut. Beloit's offense caught fire in the second quarter to give them a 31-27 half time lead and a final victory of 70-48. Beloit 58 Kenosha 54 Beloit staved off a Kenosha rally to give them their third straight victory. Exception- al performances by Bill Watson and Jerry Vance helped give Beloit their hard earned triumph over the Kenosha team. Beloit 58 Janesville 63 Beloit lost its first game to the Janesville Bluebirds by a slight margin. Janesville stymied Beloit's fast break which threw them off their usual stride. Janesville surged ahead in the third quarter to help them gain their victory. Beloit 60 Rockford East 61 Coach Erickson's former High School performed a last minute surge to give Beloit a heartbreaking defeat. It was a game long to be remembered by Beloit fans, for both teams gave a sparkling exhibition. Beloit 63 Racine Park 60 Beloit's torrid rally helped them rip the Racine team in overtime play. It was a cruci- ally played game from start to finish and Beloit fully deserved their hard earned victory. Beloit 57 Hebron 56 Beloit eked out a last minute win over the Hebron Giants. It was an exciting game all the way with Jerry Vance's free throw being the deciding factor in the final min- utes. Beloit 57 Racine Horlick 87 A hot shooting Racine team handed Beloit their second defeat of the season. Racine's sharp shooting and terrific rebound play were the biggest factors in giving them their decisive victory. Beloit 79 Madison Central 55 Beloit's sparkling play knocked the Central team out of the first birth in a hard played ball game. It was a do-nothing-wrong night for the Purple as Vance and Watson dis- played brilliant fioor play. Beloit led at the half and kept it until the final minutes. Beloit 64 Belvidere 76 Beloit lost its fourth game of the season as Belvidere outlegged them with a sturdy defense and a fast break. Beloit hopped off to an early lead but then showed signs of tiring and never really got back in the game. Beloit 41 Madison West 59 Madison West according to statistics shouldn't have won this game but after getting an early start the Beloit team never caught them. Beloit's rally in the third quarter closed the gap a little but not enough as the Regents forged ahead to keep their lead. PAGE 169 Season Summarization Beloit 57 Madison East 44 Beloit drubbed the East team in which they held the upper hand for the distance. Brom and Watson highlighted the game for Beloit although much of the credit must be given to the underclassmen who dominated the lineup for the Purple. Beloit 52 Madison West 49 Beloit defeated Madison in a furious defensive battle which could have been anybody's game. It was tied at the end of regulation play but in the overtime period Jerry Vance made the deciding points which gave Beloit the final victory. Beloit 56 Kenosha 84 A red hot Kenosha quintet exploded too many surprises on the Purple and Beloit lost a 84-56 battle to the Red Devils. Both teams jumped off to an early start but in the third period Beloit cooled off and Kenosha forged ahead, giving them a hard earned victory. Beloit 70 Janesville 60 Beloit handed their arch rival a setback by defeating them in a pretty evenly played game. Janesville kept up with the Purple until the third period and then dropped be- hind. Beloit 57 Racine Park 66 Racine doused all chances of Beloit winning the Big Eight by defeating them in an exciting game. The game was close up until the third quarter when Racine broke loose. From there the Purple lagged behind for the remaining minutes. Beloit 46 Racine Horlick 57 Racine Horlick displayed much class by defeating the Purple in a hard played con- test. The Purple didn't get started until la ze in the game which helped give Horlick the victory. Beloit 75 , Madison Central 80 Madison Central handed Beloit another defeat despite fine performance by Wes Mason and Bill Watson. The game was closely played until the last few minutes when the Central team inched ahead to win in Beloit's last conference game of the season. Regional Toiirnament Beloit took top honors in the regional tournament by defeating all opposition. Their first game was against Delavan. Although both teams played serious ball, Beloit came out ahead 84-60. Beloit was paired off with Elkhorn in their second game. The Elks dominated the game until the third quarter. Then Beloit forged ahead to win 71-61 and gain their chance for top honors. In the championship game Beloit and Lake Geneva displayed a well played ball game, but Beloit's bench reserve game them the chance to gain a 64- 52 victory and the Regional tournament. Beloit Wins Sectional Tourney Beloit drew Brodhead for their first game in the sectional tournament. Brodhead was right up with Beloit in the opening minutes but the Purple edged ahead and won by a large margin-74-53. Beloit's determination to win against Horlick proved to be the vital factor in the overtime play of this game. The final score was 80-77 to give Beloit a chance at the State finals. State Tournament Although Beloit lost both games in the State tournament, they gave a fine performance. Beloit drew Menasha for the first game. The score was close in the first half and then Menasha caught fire to take the game 75-61. Beloit met Eau Claire in their second game which proved to be interesting.
