 OTTO BREITEXBACH. EDWARD DRONE. EDWARD COOPER To the three men who have done much for the morale and spirit of the students of Chilton High School, we, the student body, enthusiastically dedicate this annual. Through the efforts of these men our basketball and football teams have become something to be proud of. Although they are rated as outstanding coaches, they are equally qualified as classroom teachers. They are always ready to lend a listening ear to any confused or baffled student. Many are the hours Mr. Drone spent coaching our basketball teams, besides tutoring many Freshmen and Sophomores through General Science and World History. With the approach of each fall. Mr. Cooper is found out in the fresh air toughening up the boys. With the ringing of school bells, he can be found solving geometric and algebraic problems on the blackboard. Mr. Breitenbach’s talents are equally varied and scattered. He can be consulted about anything from basketball and health to a boy’s future. So, alphabetically we say, A is for All of them, B is for Breitenbach, C is for Cooper, and D is for Drone — we dedicate this TIGERETTE in the hope that it will in some way show them our gratitude for all they have done for Chilton High. b

(Duz Jbcfioot Through these hallowed halls now pass Students from another class. Are they as good as all the rest? Can they pass life’s awesome tests? These tests will follow different trends, And teach us how to live with friends. All we learned will go for naught, Tf we don’t do as we ought. We s all see what the future carries For these boisterous Johns and Marys, • who rocked the town with glee will keep our country free. Trivial cares are left behind, Only a hard world we will find. We’ll look it squarely in the face, And be a benefit to our race. Did we learn our lesson well? At this time we cannot tell. Who will win and who will lose? We are not the ones to choose. —Eugene Winkler 4

£ii a tt £ In my last official greeting to the graduating class of 1951, I cannot help but have a feeling of humbleness. You are now entering upon a life that is filled with serious problems that have been too big for any one person to solve. It seems so unfair that the world that is being turned over to you young people must be protected by every means available, but maybe that is what has made our country as great as it is today. We sincerely hope that your education at school and at home has at least given you a feeling that our country •and form of government are worth fighting for, if necessary. Your formal education is over and from now on you must realize that the greatest security that you young people have is yourself. Everyone will suffer unless you have learned that you cannot be your best unless you take an interest in helping to improve the community and country which is your home. There is no blueprint that can be handed out for a successful life and no one would be interested in following it if there were, but I do believe that the following qualities will help you in your quest for a full life: You should have a determination to earn your own way in the world by useful service; have a personal interest in human welfare and seize every opportunity to help others improve their lives; and develop a deep concern for good government combined with sustained study and action. In behalf of the faculty and student body, I want to wish you the best of luck in your future ventures, realizing that your life from now on is in your own hands. Use it to the best of your ability.
