He will long live in the hearts of all who knew him and were inspired by his ideal example of patience, loyalty, and understanding. but rinnipal Central High School in l942 accepts cheerfully and pridefully the traditions and obligations of the past, and expresses a firm determination to carry on. We look forward to the future in confidence, armed with the quiet strength of this inheritance and fired by the vitality of youth. -G, D. Scott.

HE i942 Board of Education is composed of the following members elected by the Common Council: president, B. F. Franke, vice-president, Walter Bigelow, Mrs. A. E. Teachout, Dr. Alf Gundersen, Leonard Kilian, W. L. Rossiter, and Otto Zielke. Arthur Jordan is clerk ex-officio and business manager of The Board, John Roop, treasurer ex-officio, and Ethel Goetting, secretary to The Board. At the summons of the Town Superintendent, Lorenzo L. Lewis, the electors of the School District Number One met August 2, l85l, at the house of Simeon Kellogg, organized and elected the first school board. A similar election was held each year thereafter until 1867. This board was composed of the following men: Clerk, Edwin Flint--Lawyer, Treasurer, H. J. B. Miller+Traderg Director, Timothy Burns-Town Proprietor. ln i858 the clerk was chosen for one year, the treasurer for two, and the director for three. ln March l867, the legislature so amended the city charter, that the common council, at a meeting held the same month, elected one resident from each ward and one from the city at large as school commissioners. The commissioners as a body become the Board of Education of the city of La Crosse. The term of office for the commissioners was two years, and after the first year they were elected in December and commenced their term of office the first Monday in January following their election. The commissioners from the city at large and those from the even numbered wards alternated in these elections with the commissioners from the odd numbered wards. The city of La Crosse was at this time composed of four wards. In i887 the city charter was again amended so that the Board of Education iSchool Commissionersl were limited to seven in number and all elected from the city at large, with the provision that no two of them should reside in the some ward. To Superintendent Wiley, who retires this year as Superintendent of the schools of La Crosse, we extend our sincere thanks for his efforts in behalf of our educational system during the past Zi years.

The whole staff has worked to bring in the historical angle in their write-ups. Marion Betz was the Editor and Evanthea Cavouras was the Associate Editor. Ann Smedal and Arlene Berny had charge of the faculty write-ups. The senior write-ups were taken care of by Jean Wittenberg, Franklin Mears, Dorothy Kolb, and Beverly Dolan. Jack Fritz, Dorothy Perry, Lois Kowalke and Shirley Deck wrote up the organizations. ln the field of Girlsf Athletics, Jane Greer capably handled the articles. Jean Gilbertson and Charlotte Miller took charge of collecting the information on School Life. The snap mounting job was ably handled by Geraldine Noffke. The proof reading was done by Inez Larson, Eleanor Albrechtson, and Dorothy Perry. Gordon Thiel was the Booster Staff's photographer. The typists were Pat Dalaska, Janice Jehlen, Mary Jean Pawlak, and Elaine Wood. Josephine Colman furnished the art work for the annual. This year, Mr. D. R. Kinney was the advisor. The business staff, under lvlr. C. H. Stahl, was as ,followsx Carmen Thomas, Shirley Saltz, Marilyn Schaldach, Bettie Lou Ash, Vinett Grabinski, Wayne Kuettel, and Phyllis Ann Carrier. The business staff secures orders for copies of the Booster which help to finance the project. Top Row-Mr. Kinney, J. Fritz, W. Kucttcl. S. Felton, F. Mears, I. Larson, P. Dalaska. Second Row-G.

Wortinbee, music director HE growth of our high school library is one of the best examples of the advance- ment which has been made in all of the departments at Central. For many years the library has grown steadily, until today it is equipped with 3,756 books. The high school library has been in ex- istance ever since the beginning of Central. At that time, it was not allotted money for a large number of books because of the small enrollment, but as the years went by and the enrollment increased, larger sums have been put aside for the books that today must satisfy the demands of over one thousand students. ln its early days, the library was not in its present location, but was housed in what is now the room and office of Miss Hayes. As it grew, however, more space was needed, and it was then moved to its present site. Books of every classification are kept in the library to satisfy the ever-increasing demands. Every student at Central is de- pendent on the books in the library, and a unit of library work is now offered in lOB to better acquaint all students with its use. Music USIC instruction in Central High School is open to all interested students, and is very popular, both as a vocational subject and as an activity for the use of leisure time. The first instrumental organization of Central was a mandolin club. In later years this was replaced by an orchestra, similar to the present-day group. Our first school band was organized in l92Z, and uniforms were purchased in the fall of l923. ln the early l900's, glee clubs were very popular. Now an a cappella choir is the leading vocal organization of the school. Boys' and girls' choruses are also popular. The Choir specializes in singing music of the early church, lvladrigals, Russian and American choral music and similar compo- sitions which demand smooth, sustained singing. Since very early in the department's his- tory, an operetta has been given during many of the school years. The leading characters, soloists, and chorus members in the operetta are chosen from the ad- vanced singers of the school. C. Swenson, Iibrorion Library E Smith, C. Evans, C. Hayes, G. Hetherington, N. Fodness Social Studies ISTORY was not an important part of the curriculum in the l89O's. Though classes in Greek and Latin were taught every school day for four years, the only history course in l894 was General History. This was given four days a week in the junior year and covered Greek, Roman, mediaeval and modern fields. No history of the United States was offered but civics was taught in the senior year. Though English history was taught, it was not until after l9l O that United States history appeared on the school record cards. lt was given as a one semester elective. History was, nevertheless, assuming more importance, for four semesters of history were now offered. Still the records show Page I4 C. Stokke, D. Cott, H. Josten, D. Kinney that many students took little or no work in it. Not until after the World War were United States history and civics made re- quired courses. Gradually the emphasis in social studies courses shifted from the re- mote past. Two semesters given to United States history, rr-ore time devoted to mod- ern history, the addition of geography, so- cial living and economics to the curricu- lum as well as the regular study of current affairs are an indication of the change that has taken place in fifty years. ln l894 the history classes supplemented the classical course, in l942 social studies are planned to make the present more understandable. HE course in English at Central was first introduced into the curriculum in l894. It consisted of composition the first year, grammar the second, rhetoric, which is al- most synomous with our Public Speaking course today, the third year, and English Literature the fourth, with classes reciting only three times a week. The course was extended in l895, due to a sizable increase in the student body, and the classes recited four times weekly. A year or two later, English became recog- nized as an important subject, and after a further expansion of the course, the classes recited five times weekly. During this time American Literature was added to the fourth year course, and rhetoric was re- stricted to the first half of the junior year. ln l9l 5, the English department was E Molchow, C. Thomas, C. Anderson, H. Stillman entirely rearranged. More classes in ad- vanced, practical English for the upper classmen were inaugurated, and a wider scope of activities were also introduced into the course. Since that time, many changes have been made in our English department. As edu- cational methods have changed, so have the various units of our English course. The time spent on the studying of rhetoric, for example, has been discontinued as an English unit, and in place of it other activi- ties have been added. In all four years of high school English, these changes have been made, in favor of new, advanced methods of study, that have changed our English course from four years of limited study, to four years of full-time variety. C. Hume, C. Siepert, A. Perschbocher, A. Sherer DCISHCG -l-HE Science Department began about l88O, when lvlr. Hardy came to the La Crosse High School. He taught chem- istry and physics only from a text book and finally started a laboratory by re- pairing some broken apparatus. Later, an appropriation of fifty dollars was secured to fit out laboratories. Botany, physiology, and physiography were taught for a period of about five years, before World War l. The department has grown and at the present time, chemistry, applied chemistry, and physics are taught. The school now has plenty of individual equipment, and expects to get more during the summer. By next Septem- ber, our laboratory should be one of the best equipped in the State. I C. Brody, T. Toms, E. Shields Manual Arts T HE Hixon Annex has provided ample room and facilities for a complete man- ual training department for Central High School students. The first courses were offered in bench work, cabinet making, pattern making, turning, molding, and forging. The subjects are much the same today, except that machine shop, garage, and drafting have been added, while turning, mold- ing and forging have been completely dropped. However, there are still one or two forges used for incidental work in the machine shop. The department does work for the school, and for other schools, but each student is allowed to work out some- thing for himself. W. Honson, M. Scherich, R. Nelson Language -l-HE Language Department traces its origin to the founding of the La Crosse High School. At that time Latin and Greek were the studies of this curricu- lum. The students taking those sub- jects met every day in the school week, and were enrolled in the course for four years. German was introduced about the beginning of the twentieth century, French was added a few years later, while Greek was dropped in 1914. For a short period during World War l, German was completely dropped from the program. ln l94O, Spanish was added to the Language Course, and there are now 29 students taking this new subject. There are a total of l82 students taking language at the pres- ent time. C. Stohl, E. Peort, L. Pittman F. Wondrey, E. Murley, H. Kline Commercial N September, l904, a Commercial Department was organized in La Crosse High School. From the beginning it proved to be popular, and has grown from a modest enrollment of about 30 students to 475. At the outset the subjects taught were bookkeeping, penmanship, shorthand, typing, com- mercial law, and arithmetic. The course has been revised to keep step with business demands, and now offers shorthand, typing, bookkeeping, business principles, retail selling, and secretarial practice. Modern office machines and equipment help train students for office work. Thousands of mimeograph and ditto copies of out- lines and tests are made annually for the school. A. VVollin, O Cook Mathematics N the early days of Central, mathe- matics was the most important course in the school's curriculum, next to Latin. At that time the course ran through the entire four years of high school, and it included algebra, arith- metic, geometry and trigonometry. For many years, mathematics held its im- portant place in the courses offered at Central, and it continued along the same lines for many years. Today, high school mathematics is required for only the first two years of all B courses, which includes algebra and geometry, but algebra lll, geo- metry ll, and trigonometry are offered as elective subjects. One year of Ap- plied Mathematics is required for those students taking an A course. 'inn nun inn A. Roche, S. Andrews, L. Seielstod Home Economics Arts HE opening of Central also marked the beginning of our Home Economic Course. The classes have grown yearly from eight to ten students to the pres- ent average of twenty-five or more in all Home Economics classes. Millinery, formerly an important subject, was dropped some years ago, and Foods, Clothing, and Homecraft are the classes now offered. To improve the facilities for foods classes, a new kitchen was completed in l94l. The art course attracts many Central students. lt has been in the school curriculum for many years, and the classes extend four semesters. Work in all phases of art is offered, and a class in art metal is now included. Physical Educahon U NDER the direction of Miss Alice Harnwell, the work in Mr. Scott's office is performed by two girls each period. At the beginning of each semester, girls sign up for the office work, which includes collecting the attendance in the offices, answering the telephone, and helping in the other general office duties. Miss Harnwell, Mr. Scott's secretary, is a former graduate of Central. She performs the main duties in the office, and assigns the work of the office pages. A. l-lornwell W. Weigent, J. Zimmer, M. Sutton ENTRAL'S physical education pro- gram was handicapped by lack of facili- ties until the addition of the Hixon An- nex in l9l3. This addition made it possible for more extensive work in in- door sports to be carried on, and for students to participate in swimming work. Our phy-ed course has proved es- pecially popular because of the variety it offers. Swimming is always popular, and during the year, soccer, basketball, volleyball and baseball rate high. Gym is required for girls during the first two years of high school, and the boys in- tramurals extend the entire four years. Besides major sports, minor units are offered for extra fill-ins during the year. Qfifice R Folk, G. Noegle, S. Kronc, G. Oelschig, R. Moore '! HEN we considered the wear and tear on Central by the students each year, and the total number through the years, we decided that Central High School has had very good care, and is kept in the best of condition, was the statement of the evaluation com- mittee. The work of our janitors has made this possible. All have worked at Cen- tral almost twenty years, or over. The janitor's regular tasks are: sweeping each hall and room daily, heating the school in the winter, clean- ing the boards, making minor repairs, caring for the swimming pool, shower and locker rooms, and all the other similar tasks that are their job. They also preform many irregular duties. Cafeteria Building Custodians NTIL l9l 3, Central's cafeteria was located in rooms l, 2, and 3, and our present janitors' room served as the kitchen. When the Hixon Annex was built in l9l 3, the cafeteria was moved to its present location, which previous- ly had served as the gym. Since then, many students have come to depend on the cafeteria. Besides the change in location, it has also changed its methods for payments. The stu- dents formerly bought tickets which lasted them for a considerable period, and which they presented each day. Today, hot lunches served at low prices are offered, and the cafeteria is con- tinuing to render an invaluable service to the school. D. Kingsbury, F, Rimmert, A. Joseph, H. Oliver, E.

HE Red Cross Council was established in Central about five years ago. The present system of representation has a representative from each home room. They hold meetings the first and third Monday of the month. The individual members helped in the Junior Red Cross drive and gave service for Red Cross advancement by taking part in plays, health programs at Longfellow, giving speeches on Red Cross work, making scrapbooks, and by participating in the first war fund drive. Mary Gundersen, president, and Jean Ahrens, secre- tary, are the officers of the organization. Miss Sherer carried the advisor- ship until after the membership drive, when Mr. Thomas took charge. Mrs. Smith became the advisor during the spring semester. Many girls of the school spent their spare time knitting squares to be made into afghans for the Red Cross.

This club was founded in l923 and since then there have been several changes. There are now neither try- outs nor programs, but. instead meet- ings for business or for mending books. One of their accomplishments for the year was the Notes and Quotes book- let, and another was establishing in Mr. Anderson's English class, a small library in which books were often re- placed. The presidents for the year were Marion Betz and Randi Brye, vice- president was Janice Pischke, secre- taries were Katherine Greenwood and Eleanor Blihovde and the treasury officers was held by Elaine Rassmussen and Betty Pawlak. Miss Cydell Swenson was their advisor. 1. Examining new books 2.

There was a popular demand, by the students for a separate paper, so with the encouragement of Mark Byers, editor of the city paper, it was begun in 1920 and 1921. Eric Ravendal, born in Norway, the son of a consul, became the first editor. Issued fourteen times in the school year, the paper, through the years, has had its make-up and type of paper changed a great deal.

That was in l929 and the Harlequin dramatic society was born. Now in l942, the Harlequin Dramatic Society is as firmly established as it ever was or will be. The rules for gaining membership by tryouts are prac- tically the same as when the society was organized. Miss Murley was advisor for the Harlequins. This year lVlr. E. H. Smith is advisor of the future Barrymores. The Harlequins and Masquers combined to produce a play for the assemblies. It was a one act comedy called Love in Bloom , a woeful tale of puppy-love. Student of- ficers for the fall semester were: John Hahn, president, Jack Brinclley, vice-presi- dent, James Bosanny, secretary, and Leroy Marx was treasurer. Russell Elson was president, Gunnar Gundersen, vice-presi- dent, Richard Terry, secretary, and Don Franzmann was the treasurer for the spring semester of Harlequins. Harlequins l.

They may be expected to do anything at any time. Between build- ing stage sets for the Senior play, commencement exercises and both dramatic societies' productions, they arranged the stage for our assemblies. The Stage Crew furnished the movies that the students had for assemblies. Mr. Charles Hume, as the advisor of the group, has Charles Behrens as stage manager and Kenneth Espenes as an assistant-stage manager to help guide the rest of the crew. Some of the crew specialize in radio and movie work and take care of their respective duties in that line. Kenneth Kumm, Jack Stienmetz, Ken- neth Kearns, Edward Balzer, Richard Johnson, Bob Akright, Robert Bach, William Laux and Tom Steel comprise the rest of the highly ef- ficient crew. The crew had a one night vaca- tion and for the first time in a long while the boys did not have to construct a stage set for a celebration that was held in school. Reason for this oddity is that it was their own party. Ice cream, sandwiches, games, and swimming were all thrown together for the one night vacation of the stage crew.

The duty ot this committee is to make the ar- rangements for the important social programs for the Central students. They are responsible for deciding the dates tor mixers, selecting the orchestra to provide the music for dancing, and decorating the gym with the proper decor- ations tor the occasion. They, also, are in charge of all of the arrangements for the proms. The Social Committee doesn't hold regular meetings as do other organizations but meet only to plan for the mixers. The teachers who advise the Social Committee are as follows: Mr. Thomas Pittman, Mr. George Hether- ington, Miss Elva Shields and Miss Evange- line Malchow. We have the following mem- bers of the Social Committee, to thank for our frequent mixers: Mary Gundersen, Sally Schwanzle, Janice Kreuzer, Betty Jane Isakson, Allan Davidson, Harold Ziemann, and William Cremer.

O improve school conditions, to form a closer relationship between the students and the teachers, and to settle school problems, are only a few aims of the Student-Teacher Council. Contrary to last year's method of electing a member from each club to serve on the council, since the organization of the homeroom system, one student representative has been chosen from each homeroom. This year the faculty was represented by Mr. Frefzl Wandrey, Mr. George Hetherington, Miss Anne Roche, and Miss Margaret Josten. Serving as officers the first semester were: Sigurd Sivertson, President, David Emmert, Vice-President, Jean Stavrum, Secretary, and Mary Rowell, Cor- responding Secretary. The second semester David Emmert replaced Sigurd Sivertson as president and Adolf Gundersen assumed the vice-presidency. All the officers were chosen by the members of the organization, except the president, who is elected in a school-wide election.

All students passing through the halls during the school day must sign on the pads at the desks of the hall guides. There are six desks, two of which are situated on every floor on the main halls. The boys are assigned the east end of the building and the girls take care of the west side. Different students are on duty at each of the six periods of the day Mr. George Hetherington selects the hall guides each semester from the various study halls. Top Row-Mr. Hetherington, L.

A decision was then made which enabled the students to govern their own study hall, one period of the day. By l93O, this system was used for all six periods. Miss Josten handled the discipline problems while the principal had the serious ones. Now students go before a student court elected by lmembers in 2l2. The students before entering the honor study hall take this pledge: On my honor l plegde myself to: l. Use this study hall to main- tain the highest level of scholarship of which I am capable. 2. Practice self- discipline, be considerate of the rights of others and promote the welfare of the organization. 3. Participate in the government of Zl 2 and accept re- sponsibility for its conduct. The executives acting as officer, assistant officer and roll taker agree, as 2l2 is a democracy, to remember that an officer is :I I UU! THXLJ. Marguerite Bourret deposits a pledge card for enrollment in 212 study hall, while executive, Francis Farnam looks on both a public servant and a leader.

Not many students are able to secure the necessary number of points and so the dis- stinction of being a Circle member is greater for those who can. Unlike most of the organizations, Circle does not elect officers and have regular meetings. lt holds its initiation exercises only once each year under the supervision of Miss H. Margaret Josten, who is assisted by Principal G. D. Scott, Miss Catharine Hayes, and Mr. Willard Hanson. The first time that Circle members performed their initiation exer- cises was in June, l9Z3, with the ritual being written by Miss Josten. ln February, l942, the honor of gaining membership in Circle was awarded to four students. Those fortunate students were Evanthea Cavouras, James Dum- mer, Sigurd Sivertson, and Harold Zieman. Evanthea Cavouras was the only one of the four who was not a February graduate. 2 lla F A Circle Page 8l l Page 82 Qrchestra HE Orchestra dates back before l9l5. lt I developed out ot an earlier organization called n the Mandolin Club. In 'l9l6 the orchestra if li met every Wednesday after school for practice. 15 The teacher did not give instrumental instruc- tion such as is given now. Those who play in the orchestra were those who took lessons from private teachers outside of school. The first instrumental teacher, Mr. Nichols, who also started the band here, started teaching in l92l. Mr. Anderson took charge in l923. He was followed by Mr. Behnken in l925. lvlr. Wartinbee, the present teacher, came to Central in l927. He gives instrumental lessons during school hours. Only the best musicians are granted the privilege of playing with the orchestra. Tryouts are held to help in the selection of players of the string instruments. Those playing wind instru- ments are chosen from the band. At present, the orchestra is made up of twenty-five members. ,, , 14 : 71 X4 .:'i Top Row-V. Larson, B. Johnson, J. Dummer. Second Row-H. Messing:-r, W. Paulson, B. Ahlstronipl.

Band ATON twirlersl Gleaming instrumentsl Neat uniforms! Quite a contrast to the Mando- lin Club, the first attempt made at forming a musical group in this school. Our first band was organized in the early l92O's by lvlr. D. W. Nichols of La Crosse who also became its first leader. Central High School's trim up-to-date band, under the leadership of lvlr. D. l R, Wartinbee, has made swift progress since the day of those early pioneers of music. This past year the band has obtained one saxaphone, two baritone horns, and two bell lyras. As these instruments have created a larger membership, more musicians plus the added attraction of strutters and baton twirlers added up to more colorful and elaborate performances at five out of six of our home football games. Besides giving pep and life to basketball games, the band takes part in the yearly Music Festival at Teacher's College, performs at various parades, and functions on such occasions as Labor Day and Memorial Dav, as well as one musical assembly each year Mojorettes, o new edition to the bond, strut their stuff ot the Logon-Centrol footboll gome im' Top Ruwfl.

Before that the Boys' Glee Club and the Girls' Chorus were separate organiza- tions although they sang together for some special occasions. The choir is under the direction of Mr. D. R. Wartinbee. Tryouts are held early each semester so that students wishing to sing with this group may be selected for the choir. The choir members now receive a full credit in music if it is taken as a subject. Regular classes are held during school hours. ln these classes choir members learn music appreciation as well as devoting a great deal ot the time to singing. The choir often appears in public. They plan one or two assemblies during the school year and provide music at Christmas as well as for other school programs. They also present programs for entertainment outside of school. The choir was greatly increased in the spring semes- ter and now has sixty-two members. Crirlsl Chorus Top R0wfJ. Harcliman. V. Frcc- hofl, M. Gundersen, R. Opperman. P. Hickisch, D. Harris.

Page 85 l Page 86 Nocturne O stimulate interest in good music, to afford the members an opportunity to perform be- fore other people, thereby helping each one to ' ' become more at ease when playing or singing J ' 'f,, in public. This is the purpose ot the Nocturne ,4 .Z Club. Its meetings are held semi-monthly Q55 I with a membership of about thirty boys and 5 :Ai girls. There is a limited number of forty-five c people allowed to join. Try-outs is the manner in which the students are added to the organ- ization. The first time this aggregation asa sembled was in the year l926. The present ideas are to further an interest in good classical music to be enjoyed for a lifetime and also to use their t l a ents as well as develop them. At each meet- ing, a talk is given presenting a phase of , music such as a person, history of an instrument, or how to accompany an instrumentalist or singer. The club gives an assembly in the spring of each year. Semester presidents were Marg Bourett, Bill Paulson, vice-president, Mary Rowell, Harold Messinger, secretary, Helen Lehman, Bernice Ahlstrom, treasurer, Robert Norris, Lucille L . . awrence, and advisor, Mr. D.

Central's only H ff science club was formed by Dr. A. G. o , a former instructor of science at this school. Ever since its organization in l934, the club has devoted its weekly Friday meetings either to performing and discussing more advanced experiments than can be carried out by classes or observing how Chemistry is applied to in- dustry and business. For this purpose field trips were planned on alternate meetings to such local industries as the La Crosse Rubber Mills, the Northern Engraving as well as the St. Francis Hospital. This fall the members made a special trip to Rochester, Minn., to visit the Mayo Clinic located there. This past year the officers have been: Robert Kruger, president, Betty Pawlak, social chair- man' and Margarette Bourret, secretary-treasurer. Mr. Willard Hanson and Mr. lVl.

The members of Rooters Club try to be present at all pep gather- ings to put pep into the yells and to help the cheerleaders along. Their meetings take place every Thursday night or before a game. At the be- ginning of the year, they have try-out for cheerleaders who are voted on by the club. The cheerleaders elected for this year are Geraldine Noffke, i r Mavis Conrad, Jane Shannon, Art Kol- bo, Bob Lee, and Dean Jenks. With Mr. C. l. lAndyl Anderson as advisor, the club makes up all the yells. This year the members could buy new Cen- tral blouses and sweaters. At the foot- ball games, they have a special place to sit in order to get more noise and zip into the yells. The Rooters Club sponsored the pep parade, pep mixer, and also sold candy bars and peanuts at the games. Page 92 ,Y x4 , vi-Wild' Y' . rd' ' ' Thoxmms, 1.

Any girl at Central can be- come a Dolphin if they can pass certain require- ments in swimming. Every Monday the girls go swimming, and after swimming they have a feed to which two girls bring some cake. The meetings are held every other Monday before they swim. This year the club was un- der the leadership of Mary Gundersen, presi- dent, Alice Capellen, vice-president, Nan Miller, secretary, Carmen Thomas, treasurer, and Miss Jeannette Zimmer, advisor. Mary Jane Young and Jane Crail passed certain tests, and they received Dolphin D's . This is quite an honor, because very few are given out. A party was given for the members, and there they had a feed. Another party was given for the two graduating seniors-Jene Bosanny and Shirley Laufenberger. Each of the two girls re- ceived a funny gift, races and games were played in the pool, and after all this, they had supper. Perfect back flip ot o Dolphin swim Top Row-H. Winter, J. Colman, J.

OACI-l Walter lBabel Weigent and assistant coach Willard Hanson tutor- ed the l942 football team to a success- ful season by establishing a record of five wins and two losses. The Waterloo East game, to be played on Novem- ber l, was canceled due to bad weather. Central's Red Raiders started the football season by defeating a strong Madison West eleven, 32 to l4. Lud Kroner scored 20 points while Earl Tikal and l-larry Cooper each had 6 to their credit. The following week the Red and Black of Central won its first intra-city game from an inexperienced Aquinas team. The score was l9 to O when the gun marked the end of the fourth quarter. The opponents threatened once, that being in the waning minutes of play. Kroner led the scoring column with I3 points, Tikal adding the rest. Central's high scoring team marched to a third consecutive victory at the expense of Chippewa Falls. John Kabat chalked up the first 6 points after a pass set the ball in scoring position. Cooper and Beardmore scored the other touchdowns. The final score was Cen- tral l8, Chippewa Falls O.

The Raiders came through with ten victories and eight de- feats. Even though losing Sig Sivertson, Lud Kroner and Warren Kuettel through mid-season graduation, Central came through in fine style. Central opened the season on the Logan gym November 28 and walloped Madison East 20 to l2. The following night Cen- tral suffered a loss at the hands of Madi- son West. On December 5 Central again suffered defeat, this time at the hand of Minneapolis North. The Raiders got into the win column with a 3l to l7 victory over Sparta High. On December l2 Central returned home and defeated a favored Eau Claire team 39 to 27. Central's first intra-city game was played on the Logan gym. The Raiders met de- feat by a mere two points. Central then entertained a traveling Springfield group and won. Central again attained victory this time at the expense of its other intra- city rival, Aquinas. The following night, January lO, Central relaxed and was de- feated by Winona 36 to 27. ln its journey to Superior, Central lost to Superior Central in January 23 by one point, the following night it lost 34 to Zl to a strong Superior East five. Central suffered its fourth straight defeat, this time in Eau Claire. The Red and Black then faced Aquinas on February 6 and gained a needed victory by a score of 34 to 27. Central took a well deserved victory from Campion on Febru- ary 7. The Raiders then gave Austin a 26 to 23 setback. Central again met Campion this time on a home floor, and again picked out a two point victory. February 27, the Hixon gym set the stage for the city cham- pionship game between the Raiders and Logan. Central came through with an over- time victory 3l to 27. ln a post season game Central lost to Rushford 29 to 25 on the opponents gym. Letter winners were: Captain Kenny Bey, Harry Cooper, Dave l-logue, Earl Tikal, Jerry Peterson, Richard Evans, Sig Sivert- son, Warren Kuettel, Lud Kroner, John Fetzner, Kenny Olson, Orlando Helgerson and Bill Jungbluth.

C. campaign The first regular assembly, held September l7, was an informative film on paper making. The process, from pine trees in the forest to paper on the way to market, was disclosed. Students left the auditorium with a new sense of value for the paper used so carelessly. On September 25, members of Central High School witnessed cranberries frozen in a few minutes by a steaming liquid, a teakettle which stood on ice and appeared to boil, and rubber balls which broke into many pieces after they were put into this liquid. These mysterious re- sults were obtained by the work of liquid air, demonstrated by Mr. Everman. Bob Kent's orchestra, formerly Bob Norris', entertained all types of music lovers on Octo- ber 22, Students had a hard time keeping their feet still as the musicians shook the rafters with The Hep Kat Jive. This eight piece organization played Moonlight Serenade for its theme song. The studes wondered what kind of an as- sembly there would be, when they were called from their second period classes, and told to report to the gym on November 24. They en- tered only to find a platform in the back of the gymnasium. Everyone expected a safety talk, but were astounded when a girl and two men appeared in gym suits. They were world fa- mous tumblers giving exhibitions of head stands, somersaults, tricks on the trampoline, and many others. Wednesday, December 3, brought about the traditional Jr. Ex. talks. ln the first assembly, La Crosse history was the subject. The chair- man was Donald Lee and the speakers were: Marion Fuller, Mr. Losey, Betty Ash, John Levy, Jack Brindley, Judge Brindley, Jean Ahrens, Nathan Myrick, and Ruth Aanass, Col. Stod- dard. The second assembly speakers were Adolf Gundersen, Benito Mussolini, Sibley Felton, W. D. Sherman, John Hahn, William Mitchell, Anita Krause, Winston Churchill, Virginia Pa- penfuss, H. G. Wells, and Colleen Stanton, Ma- dam Chicng Kai Chek. Victors of the first as- sembly, Marion Fuller, Jack Brindley, and Betty Ash were given the privilege of speaking on The Voice of Central radio program. ln the second assembly, Anita Krause and Adolf Gun- dersen were the winners. Final tribute to Mr. Horton Kline for his 32 years as an instructor and leader in our school's activities was paid by students, faculty mem- bers, and friends at memorial services held Wednesday morning, Feb. 4, l94Z, in the auditorium. A quartette composed of Alvin Mikelson, D. R. Wartinbee, Harold Youngberg and Elvin Saterbach opened the services by singing Friendship after which Jim Brindley, repre- senting the students spoke. The next two speakers were Miss Adele Wallin, a Central faculty member, and G. M. Wiley superintendent of schools. The quartette sang Beautiful Savior and then E. E. Franz, representing the Masonic Lodge, talked about Mr. Kline as a fine example for the organiza- tion. Following Mr, Franz, was Mark Esch, an alumnus of Central High. C. C. Thomas ofthe faculty, then read a memorial resolution adopted by the La Crosse Board of Education. Miss Grace Bainbridge closed the services by singing The Lord's Prayer.

WHAT A LIFE Anything can happen to Henry Aldrich, and it did in the Masquer-Harlequin presentation of What a Life, a three act comedy by Clif- ford Goldsmith, on April 25, l94l. Henry lWilliam Cremer! has to pass his his- tory exam with the highest mark so his mother lBeverly Brokaw! will let him take Barbara Pearson iMary Howe! to a dance. To do this, Henry cribs from George Bigelow's lJames McKenzie! paper. Assistant principal, Mr. Nelson lSigurd Sivertson! understands him and coaxes a confession from him, Then the band instruments are stolen and Henry is blamed, but Mr. Fergerson, a detective, lGil- ford Wiley! and the music teacher lJosephine Colman! expose George as the culprit. All's well that ends well, and all ends well. Henry gcts to study art and also receives tickets for the dance. Other characters were: Mr. Patterson, Arthur Beutler, Miss Pike, Betty Jane lsaksan, Bill, Harry Ziemann, Miss Eggleston, Betty Swartz, Miss Johnson, Helen Winter, Mr. Wecchitto, LeRoy Marx, Gertie, Elnor Baptie, Mary, Mar- garet Howe. LOVE IN BLOOM Regular assembly was held February 6, l942, for the Mosquer-Harlequin ploy Love in Bloom. Mrs. Hamilton lHelen Winter! was always giving up the things she loved for the sake of her daughter, Cynthia, lPhyllis Ann Carrier! who was madly in love with her dramatic teacher, Prof. Warren, lGunnar Gundersen!. Mrs. Hamilton was engaged to Prof. Warren, but refused to marry him when she found out that her daughter had a crush on him. Prof. Warren, in order to have Cynthia stop loving him, pretended to be much older than he really was, wore a toupee, and did other things which Cvnthia didn't like. This acting of Prof. Warren's proved suc- cessful, and Cynthia was soon going around with her own friends again. Aunt Judith lMuriel Mitchell! was an old maid always handing out advice to the others. Jim Bosanny, Francis Brown, and Donald Carey were some of Cyn- thia's friends. Molly lCharlotte Miller! was the dreamy maid. , SHE STOOPS T0 CONQUER An all Centralite cast presented the play She Stoops to Conquer, Saturday evening, Dec. 6, in the auditorium. The main action of the play centers around the budding romance of Mr. Marlowe lFloyd Andrews! and Miss Hardcastle lKatherine Thompson! , the period being about l77O-l 780. In the course of events, which terminates in a happy marriage, we find Miss Hardcastle stoop- ing to play barmaid, merely to win the affec- tion of her lover. Mrs. Hardcastle lBeverly Dittman! and her ignorant son Tony Lumpkin lRobert Lee! figure prominently in the actions. The pretended stealing of Miss Neville's lElsie Stylen! jewels, the rescue of her and her jewels by Tony, and a farce journey highlighted many comic scenes. The romance of Miss Neville and Mr. Hastings lKenneth Scholberg! was also brought to a successful end after many trials. ln spite of the merry mix-ups, the story ends happily with the whole family planning the future marriage of Marlowe and Miss Hard- castle. Other students who took part in the play were: Joan Jehlen, the maid, Robert Bach, Sir Charles Marlowe, Kenneth Kumm, Roger, Rus- sell Hoff, Diggory, James Dummer, Mr. Hard- castle. l Page l l7 P0Qel1g XXPeOp1elI 1.
