.-Q-BAA-S-S- -Hgl4Q-Q-Q-R4K- Sixtyhtwo very green, but not so dumb, Freshmen entered the Bradley High School in 1935. The class was well-represented in sports with Hubert, Anderson, Pechauer, Casino, and Damler forming the lightweight squad and Ponickvar breaking in on the heavyweight lineup very often. As the year passed the class was finally get- ting used to the customs of Bradley High School, and on June 3rd three boys were awarded letters in scholarship for the excellent work and the grades achieved. These boys were Welker, Hasemeyer, and Vickery ' In 1934 Bradley was to have football for the first time in eight years. At the end of the season six Sophomores came out of the battle unharmed to secure major letters. The proud Sophomores were Stefanich, Hubert, Anderson, Ponickvar, Pechauer, and Damler. Our class was really proud of these boys. However, not to be sa- tisfied with football awards, Casino, Pechauer, Anderson,Ponickvar and Damler received major letters in basketball with Hubert,Gillen and Werner showing up on the minor letters for their work on the lightweight team. The Sophomore year seemed to be the record year for Hasemeyer Vickery, Welker, Larkins, Pechauer, Werner,andIEqes received scholarship letters for com endable work during the year. 1955. The Junior gear seemed to be the big year of our short career in Bradley High chool. The football season turned out as the year before with no wins, due to the fact of our lack of ex- perience. But the boys fought hard and received their due reward with Hubert, Casino, Pechauer, Stefanich, and Werner on the reed - ing end. Basketball was the main feature of the year, as Bradley turned out another district championship team. Five of'the Junors held regular positions on'the winning club. Ponickvar, Gillen, Pfchauer, Casino, Anderson 'and Hubert were the boys to receive rrjor letters in basketball, with Hasemeyer and Werner showing up on the minor letters. We Juniors really worked hard to makeihe athletic banquet a success. At this event the boys received their basketball and football awards. Many notable players and 'coaches of Purdue University were secured by our coach and sponsor, John Beck, to give us advice on later life. After resting up a few weeks, we were on our toes again getting ready for our Junior-Sen- ior banquet. Due to the cooperation of the members, the banquet was a great success. This event was the final event of our Junior year in Bradley High School. Scholastic standards were lowered and only two boys received letters: Hasemeyer and Vickery.

Seniors at first few weeks heels in school standing set in' last! That was the mumble around the class the of this year, but finally all of us were head over activities. This year we have turned out the best football with five wins, two losses, and one tie.Hw semeyer, Hubert, Anderson, Casino, Pechauer, Stefanich, Ponickvar, and Welker were the men rewarded with major letters in football. Basketball was another pace-setting year, as we were runner-up in the Regional Tournament and were defeated in the Sectional by the state champions, Joliet High School. Five Seniors were given' cre- dit for their work in basketball: 'Casino, Hubert, Anderson, Pe- chauer, and Hasemeyer. As Mr, Cook, our new coach, liked track very much, it was adopted by our high school. Everybody was very green 'in the 'new sport, but showed possibilities. Casino, Pe- chauer, Welker, and Vickery showed enough talent to receive major awards. Scholarship letters this year were given to Hasemeyer, Vickery and Gillen. On May 29th the Seniors attended the ' Junior- Senior banquet and we thank the Juniors for their kindness,and hope they will fill our shoes next year. Out of sixty-two Freshmen only twenty-three stood the battle of books and,teachers, and on June7th receive their diplomas. Our only hope is that we could have had a few more of our classmates remain with us. However, oftentimes muh cumstances cannot be helped, and we, the Seniors of 1957, give all the lower classes a challenge to make a record as good, OP'UfEPtNM1 our own, which is shown by this brief history.
