To start the year out right, we elected Marvin Roberts as president. Many of the members of our class participated in sports. Our class also took part in chorus, band and other school activities. Our most important social event of the year was our box-social. Good food, good dancing, everyone had a good time! As sophomores, we had the privilege of picking on the freshmen of 14-7� as we had been picked on. We elected Jerry Brouillard as president. The boys again were very active in sports. We won the class tournament. Congratulations, team! Prom our class, Lois Jean Jackson was chosen as cheerleader. And now our junior yearl There were our class rings, which we are sure are the best ever chosen. As is customary, we Juniors, put on the prom. Led by King Jerry Brouillard and Queen Regina Benser, it was a very successful affair. We also put out a school paper--We can't forget that! Whatl A paperl A paper? Again we were victorious in the class tournaments. Finally, we are SENIORS. Gee, isn't that wonderfull We really had a lot of work to do this year—there wa3 the Senior Dance, the class play, the carnival and the annual. With great pride we chose Celeste Palmer as our DAR representative. Throughout our high school life, we have carried our share of responsibility and feel proud of the record we have made.

The school year of 1949-5 was indeed a spirited one for sports— football as well as basketball. After losing two heartbreaking games in the beginning of the season the team came back to win four straight victories whicn gained for C.H.S.-a tie for second place in the Northern Lakes Conference. The Cards was the only team to be victorious over tne f .inocqua Islanders. The score at the half was 12-0 in favor of the Islanders. The Cards came back in the second half to make the final score 13-12 in their favor. Crandon was the leading offensive team in the Conference— 91 points. Three seniors made the final team of the Northern Lakes Conference. They were Bob Case at end, Edward Samz at center, and Marvin Roberts at tackle. Arlynn Kline made the second team as guard. Honorable mention was civen to Art McMillion at fullback. Even inclement weather could not stop the Cards when they played in a downpour and in a field made up of mud puddles to win their homecoming game over '.Vabeno. The success of the Cardinals was due to their ability to play clean, hard football, the determination to win and the fine coaching of Coach Kobin. This year eight of the eleven members of the team are seniors. For the seniors these will be memories of high school sports. To the football team of next year, we the seniors, wish them success and victory.

The team rated one of Crandon's best. Each conference opponent was beaten at least once by 22 points by the powerful Cards. Even though two of the A team players were out with the mumps during several games, the season s offensive average was 1|8 points and the defensive average was 32 points. The games for the year were 1I4. wins and 2 losses. Bob Case and Dick Kerr were Dlaced on the first team All-Conference, while Art McMillion was placed on the second team and Don Kott received honorable mention.

For a little diversion and celebration during the season, the boys surprised Coach Kobin on his birthday with a large cake. They also took a trip to Stevens Point to see River Falls win over Stevens Point. 35 Harold Junior Kobie J erry Lujack Dick [ [ [ i t [ t [ [ r [ t [ [ t t t.
