A grad- uate of the University of Wisconsin, Miss Currie started both the Thespian and dram- atic clubs which have flourished under her leadership. Caesar breakfasts which she in- troduced to her sophomore classes have be- come yearly occurences. A ratings have come from her industrious and patient coach- ing of both forensic and dramatics students. Students who have been privileged to study under her supervision and guidance will always remember with gratitude and affection, Miss Agnes Currie. MISS AGNES CURRIE MISS MINNIE RASMUSSEN There are people in this world whose kindness, friendliness, and understanding endear them to all they meet. One of these people is Miss Minnie Rasmussen. Twenty- six years of her life have been spent at Cen- tral, devoting her time and energies to pro- moting better individuals and citizens for our community. She is a graduate of Carleton College, the University of Columbia and the Univer- sity of Minnesota. Upon her arrival at Cen- tral, Miss Rasmussen became dean of upper- classman girls, giving guidance, advice and instruction where it was needed. Besides teaching sophomore English, she has engag- ed in other activities during the past years and has been a counsellor and friend to us all at Central. -41 nt' ln Memoriam Although Tom was with us only one year he will be remembered always for his smiling personality and friendly greet- ings in the halls. His red hair and happy grin is missed in the halls and classrooms this year. His love of athletics helped him to become a member of the B basketball squad while only a freshman. He was killed in an automobile acci- dent August 24, 1952. Though to us the students, his friends and his parents the loss is great, the mem- ory of him will be with us and we will remember and miss him always. THOMAS DAVIS MISS IRENE McGILL Central will always remember Miss lrene McGill, friend and teacher. She taught in various schools in Superior for 18 years and then went back to Superior State for four years and graduated with a Bachelor of Education degree. In 1941, after teaching for some years at the Blaine school, she came to Central and was with us until her untimely ill- ness and death. World History was her major field in which she did all she could for our school by teaching her beloved students. We will always have recollections of her friendly smile, good humor and pleas- ing ways. She was born November 27, 1892 and passed away May 13, 1952. as the memories of school days fade away into the shadows, our seniors will recall the four wonder- ful years spent gathering knowledge of science, art, English and numerous other valuable sub- iects which will help them meet the problems of the future. they are now ready to grad- uate, to meet these challenges, and the world is awaiting the intelligence and enthusiasm of these, our . . .

They elected not only class officers, but homeroom representatives to carry on activities for their class. These representatives help- ed to make a success of the sophomore class party which is now an annual event of the sophomore year. Classes proved to be more interesting for this ambitious group. Many of them took such subiects as biology, a foreign language, or a required subiect such as history or physical education.

As a rule the freshmen outnumber any other class, and this year is no exception. In activities the freshmen rank as high as any of the other classes. Electing capable class officers, making floats for Viking day, trimming rooms at Christ- mas, and taking part in student council were a few of the many activities in which they participated. Socially, the group was typically active. They could always be found at all dances, assemb- lies or any other activity at Central. Yes, the freshmen may be small, or bewildered, or uncertain, but what would Central be without them? MR.

Schultz threw to Nolan in an air-ground play of 42 yards to open the scoring. Arne Correll scored, then Schultz threw to Hanson who ran 40 yards for another TD. Duluth Cathedral Duluth Cathedral proved no match for Central as they over-ran them 39-14 at Du- luth. The scoring parade went as follows: Schultz passed to Tom Nolan for 36 and TO yard touchdown aerials, Laux scored from the one, then Bruce Jones finished the scor- ing with a 45 yard run through the Hilltop- pers line.

The Vikings scored first on a pass from Ron Schultz to George Hanson that covered 35 yards. The other scores came on a five yard pass from Schultz to John Larson and a 40 yard dash by Schultz on an in- tercepted pass. .

Hanson raced 35 yards for a touchdown after catching a 30 yard Schultz pass. The last score came on a long pass, Hanson to Nolan. Ashland scored twice in the last quarter. ew i . i Duluth Central The previously undefeated Vikings met their first defeat at the hands of a superior Duluth Central team 35-0 across the bay. The Vikings' usually powerful offense drove them to the Du- luth four yard line in the opening quarter where it sputtered and died. From then on it was the Troian's ball game. Eau Claire Eau Claire spoiled the Vikings' finale by de- feating them 25-12 at the Old Abes field. Dick Obester scored from the two for Central after Hanson and Nolan had set it up on passes. Eau Claire then scored three more times to finish the game. Hurley Hurley had Central's offense bottled up as they tipped the Vikings 6-0 at Municipal Stadium. Most of the game was played in midfield in a fine defensive game. The Midgets scored on a 60-yard drive.

A Winning Team The Central Vikings concluded their 1952-53 basketball schedule with 10 wins and 7 losses. In three regional tournament games they boost- ed this record to 12 wins and 8 losses. This made Coach Norm Olson's record in his seven years of coaching at Central a very respectable 91 wins against 49 losses. For the first time since 1948 Central failed to win or tie for the mythical city championship. The team provided the students with many thrills and maintained excellent shooting per- centage. Lack of big men for rebound control was Coach Olson's biggest handicap. Several of the losses were by narrow margins. The Vikings dropped their season opener to Denfeld 58-49. They beat Ashland in an over- time and then lost to Cathedral. Then the Vik- ings caught fire to win the next six games by decisive scores. In the remaining eight games the team won three games and dropped five. Central was host for the regional tourna- ment, which was played at the Superior State College gym. A tall East team knocked them out of fourth contention in the first night of play by a 51-48 score. But, the undaunted Purple and White fought back to win regional consola- -55.- tion honors by trouncing Maple 71-44 and Eagle River 93-51. The 93 points scored in this game were a new scoring record for the school as were the 30 points tossed in by center Bob Ol- son as an individual scoring record. Captain George Hanson led team scoring with 244 points for a 12.2 average per game. Right behind him was Bob Olson with 243 points. Next in the balanced scoring parade was Ron Schultz with 189, Larry Sorenson with 148, and George Bukowski with 143 points. Tom Nolan scored 74 points and Pat Tierney added 57 to the total of 1162 points scored by the team as a group. This was good for a 58.1 average per game. Four regulars were lost to the team through graduation. George Hanson completed four years on the varsity that were noted for his speed, snap shot and alertness. He won three monograms in the sport. Larry Sorenson, the team's rebound and lump shot specialist won two letters. Tom Nolan received his second monogram and was noted for his defensive ag- gressiveness. George Bukowski, with his deadly long range lump shot won his first school letter. Their Future is Bright The B team repeated last year's highly commendable record of 12 wins, two losses again this season. The two losses came at the hands of Duluth Central and Hurley by narrow margins. The junior varsity scored 470 points to opponents' 376. This gave them an average of 34 points a game to opponents' 27. Jack Stark was high scorer with 97 points scored on 37 field goals and 23 free throws. He was followed by Chuck Erick- son with 84, Roger Moe, 81, and Ken Rich- ardson with 78 points. Don Pittman scored 56, Don Wicklund, 20 and Charles Allen, 16. Coach Norm Olson has turned out many winning teams in his seven years at Central. B Team: Back row: Erickson, Lundgren, Allen, Wicklund, Ladich, Pittman, Sanderson.

Playing in one of the state's toughest regional Tournaments the Vikings hopes of repeating the success of last year were abruptly crushed by East High in the first night of play. East went on to win the re- gional and sectional crowns only to lose out in the semi-finals at Madison. After the three point loss to East the Vikings bowled over Maple and Eagle River by 27 and 42 point margins. The 42 point victory was one of the greatest in recent years. But 30 years ago in 1923, Central played in a district tournament at Ashland where they clobbered the Bayfield team 68 to ll Looking ahead to next season, coach Norm Olson should have the edge over Cathedral and East as both of these teams lost heavily through graduation. Four year man Ron Schultz at guard and center Bob Olson are expected to carry the main attack. Central proved tough in tournament play. Tierney tries hard for rebound. ,Y 1...

Personality ATHENAE societv The Athenae society started out a successful year by winning first place with their float, Vikings -Tops in Any Land in the Viking day parade. Their candidate for queen, Shirley Johnson, was elected queen of Viking day. In November, l7 new members were taken into the Athenae society at both formal and informal in- itiations. The annual mothers tea was held on De- cember l7, with the Coolidge room decorated in a Christmas theme. Again this year the Athenaes de- corated the goal posts for each home football game and held their annual basketball banquet. The faculty luncheon which is customarily held following the Honor day assembly was their next proiect. The year was ended with the senior banquet when offi- cers for the following year were revealed. With Chinatown as the theme of their dance on Febru- ary 13, the Athenaes gave their annual sweater dance.

The decorations consisted of a crystal fountain in the middle of the dance floor and blue and white icicle streamers extending from each end of the gymnasium. At one end of the gym was old father time and baby New Year of l953. During the first part of the year the Boosters were working on their float for the Viking parade. The theme of their float was, We Sea Victory which took second place. At this time the Boosters honored the freshmen girls by having a tea to en- able the girls to become better acquainted. The Boosters had many other activities this year, some of them being the faculty luncheon, mothers tea and the football and senior banquets. With Miss Alice Lomoe as advisor, the Boosters initiated lf? new members at their formal and infor- mal initiations. -81 1 Looks good!

COQUINA CLUB What have the Coquina's been doing for the past nine months? Starting out the year by bringing their Viking day float into third place, these ambitious girls didn't stop very long for a rest. Pots and pans were rattling in the homes of many Coquinas preparing fudge and seafoam to sell to the students and faculty members. A formal initiation of 17 new girls helped to en- large the group to 40 members. The faculty tea with its Thanksgiving theme proved to be loads of fun in preparing and presenting to all the faculty members. Other activities that kept the girls busy were the Athenae-Coquina basketball lianquet, mothers tea, and senior banquet. The annual cotton hop was held in April. This brought to a close some of the many proiects all the girls took part in. Miss Adeline Gabrys has been the advisor since September of this year.

Photography For Fun SHUTTERMAN CLUB With characters out of Walt Disney, the Shuftermen started the year off with their an- nual dance, the theme of which was Hunters Ball. As has been their custom in the last few years, they were again clicking with their cam- eras at the various dances held in the school. As some of their many projects for the school year the Shuttermen donated 550.00 for a cam- era for the school, took couple pictures at the school dances and kodachromes of school events. A few of the many club activities they held this year were their annual closed dinner-dance and the formal and informal initiation of 12 new members which brought the total to 28. The advisor for the past eight years has been Mr. Joseph Sitek. The club has been organized since 1938, with the main purpose being to fur- ther acquaint students with the art of photo- graphy. Taking their turn as picture subjects are John Anderson and John Sanderson, photographers at school dances. .83- Back row: Swanson, Comport, president: A. Wicklund, sec- L. Olson.

CLUB Again this year the SOS club members were busy working on their annual proiect of putting out student directories which were ready for sale in early December. The directories gave each student and faculty member's name, address and phone number. Twelve new members were taken in this year, making a total of 30 members in all. ln- formal initiation was held for new members on January 26. The purpose of this club is to promote an in- terest in science among Central students. Meet- ings were held every other Thursday and movies dealing with science were shown at some meet- ings. Each member chose a proiect that interest- ed him to work on during the year as his special assignment. Mr. Robert Gradin organized the club in 1948 and has been advisor since then.

Paints and Brushes CRAFT CLUB The Craft club plays a very important part at Central high school with all the activities the members participate in during the school year. Some of the tasks they undertake are making all stage scenery, entering a float in the Viking day parade, and making posters to back up the foot- ball and basketball teams. The members of the Craft club make an outside Christmas display which is an annual proiect. The Craft club was first started 13 years ago, in 1940 by Mr. Tony Yaworski who is still the club advisor. Students who proved to be most helpful and interested were admitted to the group. This year the Craft club took in 'I2 new members, making the total number of members 25.

Members are chosen on voice quality, clearness, enunciation and pleasantness of voice to give announce- ments. Every morning during second hour announce- ments concerning meetings, candy sales and other outside activities can be heard. The Radio Commission is not only a benefit to its listeners but also to its members. It helps them to develop good speech habits and to over- come shyness when speaking to a large group. Mr. Lyle Maves has been the advisor for four years, and is assisting l7 members this year, 13 of which are new. The group elected Marlene Edwards as chair- man forthe year, during which a candy sale was conducted to raise money. ..g6... Musical chimes announce Pat Watson and Marlene Edwards.

ECHO STAFF Many hours of effort and hard work have been put into the 1953 Echo. Layouts, copy, captions, dummies and dead- lines were words often heard by members of the Echo staff. To meet the deadline was the goal of this industrious group and efforts were made to complete layouts, pasting, and writing before then. The 22 students working together with co- editors Priscilla Anderson and Phyllis Ansell con- structed the publication, guided by advice offer- ed by Mr. Richard Whitmore.

CLUB Those who have excelled on the basketball floor and the football field comprise the mem- bership of the S club. After receiving his first letter an athlete is eligible to become a member of the club. To promote good clean sportsmanship has been their motto, and they have done well to live up to it. Weeks of hard practicing, trudg- ing down muddy fields and many times broken bones have resulted. That basketball court seemed mighty long to those who had the ball and were dashing down for that basket that would determine the game. Mr. Marvin Crowley and Mr. Norman Olson, advisors of the group, presided over honor as- semblies for those who won their letters. White pullover sweaters with purple letters and chev- erons or purple cardigans with the purple and' white letters have been seen on several of the members.

Democracy in Action STUDENT COUNCIL The student council is an organization made up of members elected from the homerooms. They meet once a week to discuss and work out problems concerning the school. Some of their many projects for the year were arranging the homecoming parade and dance, selecting members for the board of re- view, and sending delegates to the state con- vention at Eau Claire. The starting and the com- pletion of the trophy case were also under the capable hands of the student council. Working under the theme Joy to the World, chosen by the student council, the homerooms and the school were decorated pertaining to that theme. Prizes were awarded by the council to the best decorated homerooms. There are 44 members belonging to the council. Twenty-four of them are belonging to the council for the first time this year. The stu- dent council was organized in 1937, the main reason being to help the students work out prob- lems for themselves in the form of student gov- ernment. Mr. Zieman and Mr. Rogina were the ad- visors.

Many enioyable hours after school and at noon were spent by GAA girls in the small gym playing volleyball, basketball, badminton, or one of the many other sports offered. Any Cen- tral girl is eligible to become a member of the Girls Athletic Association by participating in any of the many activities offered. The aim of this organization is to promote good sportsmanship and worthwhile competition among Central girls. This year the GAA had an enrollment of about TOO girls. The GAA board is composed of l2 girls who plan and direct the club activities. This year, as in the past, they sponsored a girls basketball tournament with competition between classes and clubs. They also sponsored a pep assembly before the first Cathedral basketball game. Again this year the GAA sold the purple and white beanies that were on so many heads at games. Advisors for the girls were Miss Eleanor Guse and Miss Eva Nelson. 192.. Purple and white beanies are being unpacked by active members of the G. A. A. board. L.D.P. To belong to the LDP club it is necessary to have received the American Legion award which is based on dependability, leadership and ser- vice. lt is the only honor organization in Cen- tral. The LDP meets every two weeks to plan such activities as their formal and informal initiation, making favors for tournament day, planning their senior banquet and furnishing of the hos- pital room. This year the LDP took on a proiect in the form of having basketball programs made for the games containing the players names, positions, numbers and a place to keep score which were given away free at the games. The cornerstone for the student council was laid by four boys belonging to the LDP in 1937. ln the past two years two members from the LDP have been chosen as DAR representatives. The advisor was Mr. Eugene Olson, T Day favors are made by LDP members, Roger Kay, Connie and Lester.

They show movies which add much enioyment to the classes on such subjects as history, English, and science. There are 12 members in the Visual Aids whose project is better operation of movie ma- chines. Mr. Moe has been the advisor of the club ever since it was organized l0 years ago. Enlarging prints is an exacting job undertaken by Bill McKee and Mr. Joe Sitek. ECHO PHCTOGRAPHERS Picture after picture was taken tor the i953 Echo by photographers Dick Persons and Bill McKee who were kept busy all year snapping pictures of the various school activities. These boys, advised by Mr. Joseph Sitek willing filled all the picture orders sent to them. They took all the Echo homeroom and organizations pic- tures in addition to many activity shots. Devil's Pi pictures were also included in their assign- ments.

MUSIC SENIOR ORCHESTRA Where there's good music, there's Central's senior orchestra. This has been true for a good many years, but this year we can really boast of our fine orchestra. They were invited to play at schools in Duluth so students in the schools there could also appreciate and enjoy this group. At the Christmas concert in December, the orchestra played such selections as The Skater's Waltz, Motto Perpetue and Lord God of Abraham. They also accompanied the senior choir in the Halleluiah Chorus. At this con- cert Priscilla Anderson ancl Arlette Kiilunen were soloists. A symphonette was formed, which is an en- largement of the string ensemble including a few wind instruments. They performed at the Parents' Night program. Four of the members of the orchestra who were chosen to attend the all-state orchestra meeting in Madison were: Rosamond Schliep and Arlette Kiilunen, violin, Priscilla Anderson, cello, and Louie Meier, bass. Central is proud of Priscilla, Rosamond, Arlette and Louie who represented them at Milwaukee in the All State Orchestra.

Banded Together For Pleasure Trumpet and Drum was offered by Jack and Clyde at the senior band concert. Many fine soloists were featured this year by the senior band such as, The Dream of Olwin, a piano solo featuring Marlene Thomp- son, Trumpet and Drum featuring Clyde Cox and Jack Schreyer, and The Whistling Bobby featuring Jean Nelson. Besides these solos, the band played such pieces as Fingals Cave by Felix Mendelssohn and Rumbolero by Coma- rata. In order to be eligible for this organization it is required to have had at least one year in the iunior band. Some students are given special privileges, however, and can go directly into the senior band. This year 70 students qualified to be in the group. Organized in T933, the band has been di- rected by Mr. S. Brinley Shaw since then. The band performed at assemblies, basketball games, football games, parades, and concerts. Two of the concerts which are annual, are the band con- cert in February, and the freshman choir concert in April. 199- Q12 ' f Hy tr 3, X? if ..,, v 2 Xw2fsaEgfe' ' wa ,1- 15? ai!-Si me is ' W 1 00 - . 5 p iifg xx' x ,.

Are Cur Music Maiors SENIOR CHOIR To sing with the senior choir is the goal of every choir student. This year 53 new members were chosen to sing with the 41 veterans from last year, making 94 members in all. A few of the places the choir performed at were the an- nual Christmas and spring concerts, the Christ- mas program at the Vocational school and a re- cording over K. D. A. L. on Thursday, December 18. They also caroled in the halls, which is now an annual event. Mr. Meier, who has directed the senior choir for the past 26 years, has chosen from the choir a Triple Trio, consisting of sopranos and altos, and a Vocal Ensemble consisting of tenors and basses. The Halleluah Chorus from Hanclel's Mes- siah was one of the outstanding features per- formed by the senior choir, although many other beautiful songs were selected. Among these, The Twenty-third Psalm, Come Thou Holy Spirit and You'll Never Walk Alone. Senior choir members chosen as officers were: Arlynn Anderson, president, George Hanson as vice president, and Margaret Cook, secretary- treasurer. --103- Back row: Wells, Vettrus, J.

With sudt material support behind them, the Viking team that evening came through to a 19-7 victory over the Duluth Denfeld Hunters. Although the homecoming dance and coronation was held October 24 due to necessity, the air of victory was still pre- valent, and the Coronation of lovely queen Shirley and handsome king Clarence com- pleted a Viking homecoming that is yet to be surpassed. A prize-winning parade, a victorious ball game and a memorable coro- nation and dance made Viking day 1952 a triple scored treat for all Viking fans who participated.

East went on to win the re- gional and sectional crowns only to lose out in the semi-finals at Madison. After the three point loss to East the Vikings bowled over Maple and Eagle River by 27 and 42 point margins. The 42 point victory was one of the greatest in recent years.
