— DORCHESTER HIGH SCHOOL OUR ALMA MATER Hail to thee, Dorchester High School; Thee we still adore. Always in our hearts we'll hold thee Dearer ever more. Days of friendship we'll remember Thru the passing years. Hail to thee, Dorchester High School, Alma Mater dear’. THE DORHIAN STAFF In this Dorhian of 1948, we the Seniors, hope to have succeeded in anticipating memories to be treasured in later years. The work in making the Dorhian, has been enjoyable and the experience gained worthwhile. From the planning, to typing the last word and gluing the last picture, our ambition has been to make this edition worth it’s memorable name. For it’s name, “Dorhian” is derived from the name of the school from which we have received part of our education.

The first year we were quite bashful and very green, but in our Sophomore year after we initiated the new freshmen, our greeness soon disappeared. In April of our Junior year we presented the Junior Prom and it was a success. Now as Seniors we found this to be our busiest year. With Mrs. Lucienne Sorenson as our class advisor we elected our class officers. President........................ Robert Rau Vice President..............Eugene Erickson Secretary...................Mary Lou Brecke Treasurer....................... Sylvia Engel We had several booths at our annual carnival and our candidates for king and queen were Herbert Tauchen and Doris Parsons. They received third place. In November of this year we gave our Senior Ball. We chose for our Senior class play, “A Case of Springtime, a comedy in three acts and gave it early in the spring. The motto our class chose is “In Ourselves Our Future Lies.” Our class colors are blue and silver and our flower is the white rose. We hope we have as much success and happiness in the future as we’ve had in the past four years at Dor-Hi. Good luck to the future Seniors of Dorchester High School. CLASS REUNION OF “48 Yesterday, July 10, 1953, the Senior Class of 1948 held a reunion banquet at the Dorchester Commercial Club Hall. Mrs. L. D. Sorenson, our class advisor, arranged the affair and sent the invitations. The first to arrive was Howard Bedroske, who drove up in his Model A Ford and proudly escorted his blushing wife, the former Mary Lou Brecke. Little Mary Lou hung bashfully to her Mother’s skirt, while Howard Jr. pushed bravely ahead. Following closely was Myrtle Brecke who is a stenographer now. We couldn’t help noticing who came with her. It was her boss, Harold Schmidt, proprietor of the Schmidt Construction Company. Ray Gebert, a navy officer, who got leave from the brig to come to the re- union entered talking animately to Francis Mueller and Norbert Younker, both in the Air Force. He was telling of all the girls he had met at each port, but Norbert and Francis who had returned from Hawaii could not be outdone. The former Doris Parsons, now, Mrs. Raymond Fritche came and with her was Margaret Tauchen, now, Mrs. Donald Fierke who owns the A B Cafe in Stetsonville. There is a great comm- otion as they each try to quiet the noisy children. Seated quietly talking to some of his friends, is Eugene Erickson the “All Star’’ basketball champion who has just re- turned from Switzerland’s Olympic Games. He was the United States representative because of his outstanding skill in basketball. Well who is this? Oh yes. It’s Senator Herbert Tauchen, who had made such a name for himself by the “Tauchen Farm Bill.” The ladies are swooning. He is accompanied by the Mayor of Dorchester, William Bush, who is going to present Herbert with the key to the city. Mrs. Alvin Lindau (Patricia Hurth) and her husband are having difficulty with their Children. Little Frankie is singing and of course little Patsy made a bee line for the piano. Frances Marcott of Chicago, arrived with her fiance Harvey Anderson. She works at a fashionable dress shop that is owned and operated by Betty Fierke, who just came in. Betty is still saying eenie, meenie, minie, moe. Elsie is now a famous hairdresser and goes by the name of Mademoiselle Elissia. We all know that she is the former Elsie Springer. Her husband, Nyle Seidel, is a partner of Seidel Bros. Now at the door stands Robert Rau, the inventor of the super, colossal, magnificent, unsurpassed nail to hold down the chairs in the English room of Dor-Hi. With him is his pal, William Schwantes, who is now a pharmacist running competetion with Weix’s Drug Store. He seems to be doing alright, could it be because he is younger. Hmm girls? As they seat themselves, Donald Peissig, gentleman farmer, walks in with his wife. Don has made an enormous success of dairy farming. Dr. Jacqueline Hinke, of the Hinke Institution for the elimination of the dreaded polio, has just arrived. Talking with her is Sylvia Engel from Milwaukee, where she is employed as a governess of the Mayor’s son. We wonder how old he is? ? Entering now is Marion Pudleiner, private secretary to our representative to the United Nations. We were entertained by a member of the Bar-X Ranch, Clifford Paul, who is now in the movies making cowboy pictures. Someday he may replace Roy Rogers. Also we heard that Keith Tishendorf set a new record in the jet plane race around the world. He flew home for the reunion. He is the owner of an airport in Madison. The next to come to the big reunion was Eugene Gebert who is also a gentleman farmer and owns a large grocery store near Dorchester. Right behind, coming in very Reunion continued-- quietly was Delores Broeske, who is a busy housewife in Dorchester. She has established a Baby Sitting Service consisting of high school girls. Edith Fuss found time to come to this big event. She has been very busy at her home in Freisland, Wisconsin. Her husband is a mechanic in that city. Last to arrive are Dorothy Miller and Beverly Wiseman, who both work in Chicago at a settlement house. Dorothy as a social worker and Beverly as a nurse. After every ones arrival a buffet supper was served. Then came the time when the friends had to depart. It had been a fine reunion.

But it seems that his beautiful girl (the principal's daughter) is falling for a college man and Bob. in great effort to prove how polished and suave he can be, has taken up magic and when Bob tries the magician stunt of “Sawing a woman in half” especially on the principal's daughter; it didn’t work. In no time at all Bob finds himself in plenty of trouble. The harder Bob tries to straighten things out, things get all the more complicated. He is practically suspected of attempted “Homicide.” Meanwhile, the kid brother, while demonstrating his “dynamic muscle building lessons, has torn the formal coat Bob has borrowed from his girl to wear to the assembly program and of course she got it from her father, the principal. Things keep getting worse for poor Bob all the time. Bob’s family is beginning to get seriously worried. With the sharp advice of his dad and mother, for Bob is forever getting in trouble, and begins to believe he is “living under a curse,” but he is wrong. Events take a sudden and delightful turn, and Bob is on top of the world, forgiven by the principal, safe from his college rival and all set with his girl. Mr. Fred Schwierske was the director of the play. c JUNIOR CLASS 4th row- Rom Drinka, Roger M lchow, Henry Mertens, Joyce Ortlieb, James Herman, Gerald Seidel, Winnifred Sailor. 3rd row-Dale Seidel, John Grinker, Gladys Tischendorf, Audrey Brunner, Bob Schumacher, Alice Tauchen, Charlene Lapp. lad row- Donald Ortlieb, Merlin Ludwig, Ralph Nystrum, Marvin Buase, Danny Kramer, Glen Jensen, Roland Larson, Mr. Carnahan. 1st row- Helen Peissig, Patsy Stelsel, Marjgrie Doolittle, Jeannine Mertens.

BASKETBALL This year’s basketball team started the season with a winning streak of five games, three non-conference against Unity, Withee and Spencer, and two conference against Abbotsford and Westboro. Then came the one-sided Rib Lake game which turned the tables and started a series of loses which resulted in the team finishing in fifth place in the conference. The winning of a non- conference game now and then against Athens, Withee, Unity and Spencer kept the boys from feeling that lady luck was against them altogether. Despite their standing in the conference, the boys could always be counted upon to give the opponents a tough battle, and Rib Lake and Medford especially had many an uneasy moment before victory was theirs. Below is a tabulation of the games played by the ‘47-’48 basketball team.

CHEERLEADERS Shortly before basketball season a pep meeting was held at which time the student body chose a new cheerleader to fill the vacancies left by the graduating seniors of last year. By popular choice, Helen Peissig was chosen. The cheerleaders went to most of the basketball games and led the students in yells to urge our team to victory. They also held some pep meetings during the year. The four girls were attired in red sweaters and white skirts, portraying our school colors of red and white. FORENSICS This year’s forensic contestants came from all classes with a large number of seniors taking part. The local contest was held on March 11th at the high school. On March 18th the district forensic contest was held at Dorchester.
