Dwayne Partlow, veteran of two years, re- tained his position as guard and served as cap- tain his final year. Coming up from the bench was Bill Rand, who greatly added to the team's scoring ability and who will see action next year. ln addition to Partlow and Rand, Sopho- mores Earl Gangeness, Jerry Keller and Frank- lin Goodrich contributed their basketball dex- terity to make up the remainder of this year's hardwood team. With the graduation of only two lettermen, Partlow and Morris Johnson, next year's club should be strong competition for any of the neighboring teams. FOOTBALL ll945l September 4-Football equipment was is- sued to the Little Green Wave. There were few members of the squad present as many boys were in the potato fields helping to harvest the potato crop. September Zi - East Side played its first home game - score 7-6 in favor of Crookston Cathedral. Turnouts were getting better, and practice was rounding into shape. September 28 - East Side won its first vic- tory - East Side l9, St. James 6. Harold Spriggs, an all around athlete, made his last appearance at this game. A fractured arm, and later the Navy prevented his return. October 5 - East Side played its second home game - and chalked up its second de- feat of the season. Score was Red Lake Falls I3, East Side 6. This game shifted Tiny Thompson to the sidelines after the third quarter as a result of a slight concussion. October I9- The Little Green Wave scored its first tie of the season, playing Crookston A. C., a 6-6 game. The East Side almost had the game in its grasp when late in the last quarter Rollie Bain took a kick-off on our three yard line and raced to their ten before he was tagged and the gun sounded. October 26 -- Little Green Wave crossed the river to play the Maroons. The powerful and experienced Grand Forks team sent it back with a 3i -O whipping. November 2 - The seniors of the East Side team made their last performance for the Little Green Wave against Thief River Falls, an all district team - result 39-O. East Side was handicapped by the loss of Harvey Chris- tianson, who suffered an injury during the second quarter and had to be taken out of the game. Thus closed the i945 football season for the Little Green Wave of East Grand Forks with a total of two games won, four games lost and one tied game. Harvey Christianson, a full- back, because of outstanding work on the team during the season received an invitation from the Daily Times of Minneapolis to serve as an alternate on the North All State team which will play in Minneapolis next fall. TRACK ll945l For the second time in as many years the Green Wave was represented at the State Track Meet. James Stewart, dash-man, was entered in two events for which he qualified by taking first and second places, respectively, at the Regional Track Meet in Bemidji. Harold Spriggs also qualified as a star weight tosser and an all around athlete. James Stewart was disqualified in the preliminaries, but Harold Spriggs succeeded in taking points in the dis- cus throw. TRACK lI946l On May llth, the first annual North Con- ference Track Meet was held. East Grand Forks placed third with a total of 2l points. Harvey Christianson took one first by putting the shot 40 feet 63h inches, and earned an- other first by hurling the discus ll8 feet. Other members of the school taking points were Cy Ducharme, Franklin Goodrich, Alfred Maloney, Bill Rand and the relay team. GOLF While the track team competed at the Sta- dium, another division of school athletes was entered in a golf tournament. lt was the first time that the East Side athletes had taken part in this sport. Morris Johnson, Gerald Erickson, Gene Fassett and Joe Massee made up this team. The team did not place first, but if the sport is continued during the next school year, much progress can be expected.

Season's Record 1945-46 e521 Girls Athletic Association l LEFT T0 RlGHTfDorothy Harney, treasurer: Donna Gilbertson, v' e-president: Alice Monson, advisor: Bernice McCullough, president: Shirley Osmundson, secretary. The Girls Athletic Association, with a membership of almost lOO high-spirited girls, sped through one of the most eventful years in the history of the organization. Fifty enthusiastic girls withstood a stiff initiation issued by the old members, and thereby entered the activities never to be forgotten by G.A.A. girls, Exercising a new idea in school dances, the G.A,A. sponsored a Cake'Walk Dance, which brought fun for everyone - cake, too. Christmas gaiety was added, too, by the Christmas GAA. Banquet held at the Menden- hall Presbyterian Church. lt was finally proved that girls could survive school parties without the aid of the male sex. Undoubtedly this first Puff-Pant Prom, in which half of the girls take the part of the boy partners, will develop into an annual affair with these G.A.A, girls, Prizes were awarded to the best dressed couples. Strictly G.A.A, was a hobo party given in March. An all-school masquerade party was sponsored in April with prizes going to the winning costumes. Aside from strict social activities, members at their monthly meetings are certain to get a good workout playing a game of volley ball or soft ball. Besides competitive games the girls bowl, swim or spend an evening tobogganingi Under the able leadership of Miss Alice Monson these girls completely meet the require- ments of good GAA, members. n53o ,iii in 'V Girls Afljleitliiygssociation . .

This year's extravaganza of color and beauty will be Rainbow Revelry. Here beneath iridiscent streamers and shimmering stars the juniors and their guests will sit down to a banquet fit for the gods and later will dance to the blissful strains of a carefully concealed orchestra hidden at the end of the rainbow. Spotlights will pick up the dancers as they promenade across the floor in the traditional grand march and spectators will gaze with rapture and envy at the beautiful gowns which will vie in color and hue with the rainbows above.

Shirley Hanson, a senior, was the extemporaneous speaker. After winning the district contest with an excellent rating, she traveled to Bagley for the regional contest, where she also received an excellent rating. Barbara Jacobs, a senior, also advanced to the regional contest after winning the district with her humorous reading, Arsenic and Old Lace. Donna Young, a junior, made a good showing at the district contest by receiving an excellent rating on her dramatic interpretation of Patterns, Carol Settevig, a sophomore, added points to the winner's total by doing a splendid job in manuscript reading, for which she received an excellent rating. Patsy Mclsaac did a fine job discussing the problems of Russia with other contestants in this division. The discussion group is a new division in speech contests and will be continued in future years, Another new division in Minnesota speech contests was the District Play Contest, held a few weeks previous to the speech contest. The cast of Goodnight Caroline, which took third place in the district, included Barbara Jacobs, Jack Carney, Melvin Tabert, and Dorothy Harney. Joe Massee, a junior, competed in original oratory, another junior, Jack Carney, entered the memorized oratory section. These boys advanced from the district to the regional contest, where they both received ratings of superior. Our school feels very proud of these boys for doing such praiseworthy work. These goals attained by our high school students could not have materialized had it not been for the excellent direction of Mrs. Margaret Dunnigan. .63.

A very capable counselor, Mrs. Kenneth Douglass, has been ably assisted by Miss Leona Buehl, Mrs. Dorothy Olson, Miss lrma Magnusson, and Mrs. Daniel Rystad. Monthly meetings were held, usually with a guest speaker on the program. Sometimes dra- matic readings were given, or at other times talks on charm and personal appearance made up the program. On May lOth a Mother and Daughter Banquet was given tor members and their mothers. Miss Beatrice Johnstone of the University Extension Department was speaker for the occasion and as usual delighted and inspired her audience. The underlying purposes of this organization are: to promote friendship, leadership, and citi- zenship, in addition to furnishing worthwhile entertainment and recreation for high school girls. .661 Crganizations BACK ROW-Cy Ducharme, Franklin Goodrich, Earl Gangeness, Burrell Basgaard, Herman Skyberq, Jr., Bill Rand.

Now we could start high school. lt was all very new at first, but gradually it got to be daily routine. With the 88 members of our large class and with Arnie Thompson as president, we tried to make this first year an especially successful one. A good time was had by all at our Freshman Party. Mrs. Olson, our advisor, was largely responsible for this good time. Had it not been for her we wouldn't have known how to do the Broom Dance and everyone remembers how much fun that was. ' 1944 Sophomores This was our second year in high school - we really felt grown up. There were fewer of us this year, our roll call was now 72. David Hedin, who is naw serving in the navy, was our president. One thing l shall never forget which occurred this year was - we defeated Grand Forks in a football game played over there with a score of 12-6. Also I shall never forget how excited we were one morning when we were handed two telegrams. These were our first invitations to the Activities Banquet and Prom, Treasures of Hawaii. Then there was our Sophomore Party under the direction of Miss Stensholt, and there were several campaigns and parades agitating a Can- teen - and finally we got one. We could hardly wait until the next year when we should take over our responsibilities as juniors. 1945 Juniors We didn't even mind this year when September came, we were happy at the thought. of going back to school as juniors. There were only 56 of us now, but George Stewart as president, Ann Mero as vice-president, Lois Egeland as secretary, and Lenore Bateman as treasurer did all in their power to make this an eventful and joyous year. At the middle of the school term, we took over the school newspaper. Betty Hauser and Shirley Hanson did a fine job as co-editors. Our Pirates Den Prom-en-ade and Banquet turned out to be something we shall all remember. How could it have been anything else with Miss Halcrow as our class advisor and Lois Egeland and Arnie Thompson as co - prom managers. One of the most striking events of the year was our success in basketball. We took first place in the district tournament and placed third in the regional at Be- midji. This year was also notable for the Victory in Europe for which we could celebrate and be thankful. School went fast and most of us wanted summer to go as fast so that we might be seniors. 1946 Seniors Finally after all these years of high hopes and hard work we are seniors! Our membership has shrunk to less than half of its original number-forty-two now being eligible for graduation. Barb Jacobs was elected to the presidency. This year we won the District Speech Contest which took place in our school. Four of our students went to the regional contest at Bagley. Instead of the usual three act play, the seniors this year presented three one act plays. One of them, Blackout Canteen Minstrel, was written by one of the seniors, Betty Lou Hauser. The Tri-Y and Hi-Y were organized, and officers of the clubs have had opportunities for out of town trips. We had lots of fun teaching the boys how to waltz, polka, and square dance. We are anxiously waiting for the Rainbow Revelry Prom and Banquet. Last fall we started work earlier on the Memories of '46 so that we might be able to get them by June l. Barbara Jacobs and Lois Egeland as co-editors and Miss Reeves as faculty advisor have put in long hours in getting the annual ready for the printers. During these last few weeks of school we begin to realize that soon we shall be leaving. We recall all the good times we have had here and know we shall miss them, as we shall miss the friends we have made and enjoyed. We can't leave without thinking of you students coming up, and wish you all the good luck and fun that we have had. o7Oo M Class Prophecy , M By BETTY LOU HAUSER Head of the Department of Chronological Research, Grafton School for Chronological Researchers 0 Copyrite: 1946 DEDICA TION: To those brave SENIORS who have INTRODUCTION: If to read this makes you curious so willingly given up the best twelve years of their life toward schooling. The class of '46 has left The school is sad and lonely I did some searching till I found Some clues, I'll tell you only. Ruth Fleming went to New York To act upon the stage. The only way she made it Was to lie about her age. Ronnie Erickson went to Hollywood And became a famous star. He owns a yacht and swimming pool And has had four wives so far. Eileen and Ellen Vavrina Sing at the Club Savoye While accompanying them at the piano We see who. Mary Ann Hoye. A regular visitor at the spot LeRoy Stavig's seen there often. If he continues at that play He'll end up in a cotlin. Shirley Hanson is the author Of the celebrated book How to Make Your Husband Happy- Is to Teach Him How to Cook. Noted for his talent, George Stewart made the top. He washes windows way hig up Let's hope he doesn't drop! Marguerite Stinar's working yet. All da she sells smart shoes. Avis Ignutson is a reporter Always hunting for some news. Lenore Bateman went abroad And traveled far and wide. She met a duke in Paris And came back as a bride. A conductor on the West Coast train, Arden Mesedahl's the best. He gets a commission so he says, Go west, young man, go west. Bev Quern is now the partner Of the famous Fred Astaire. When they do their famous side-step All you customers, beware! Richard Keller owns a farm. He's looking for a wife. He wants one who can cook and sew And likes the country life. Doroth Pender designs hats For a busy New York store. If you once try on a hat there You'll be back to get some more. Margaret Wolff became a reporter On the Illustrated Press. Bernice Fillion greases machinery And gets to be quite a mess. Taxi Braden went back to sea He got lonesome for the navy. But does that boy get sea-sick When the ocean gets too wavy! A very talented bowler Shirley Krenelka always wins. Because she knows the setter And slips him a couple of fins. Betty Nelson owns a store She sells dresses with many frills. And if a payment is over-due She also collects the bills. Arnold Thompson went to sea. He said, 'Twas for the sport. But, I, myself, I think it was The girl in every port. If you plan on going to school To gain a little knowledge, Ask advice from Lois Egeland A professor in a college. Harvey Christianson went to school To talk on Touchdown Topics, While Dody Buckner went down south To live among the tropics. Geraldine Bushee went on to college To become an English teacher. While teaching in a rural school She wed a neighboring preacher. Settled down and married We get a glance at Piker. Gladys has a set of twins Which look exactly like her. DeLores Brinkman teaches school As a physical ed. instructor. Morris Johnson rides all -day For now he's a street car conductor. Darleen O'Brien went to New York She said, to look for a job.' ' But work was scarce and hard to find, She returned and married a gob. Eunice Babcock lives on a farm. She was bored with the city ways. She drives a tractor when it is nice And cooks on the rainy days. Rose Marie Fillion was a skeptic On the institute of marriage. But changed her mind and is looking around For a handy baby carriage. Blanche Stallmo runs a candy shop. Her specialty is fudge. Victor Ahlgren studied law And became a county judge. o7l'o As to whether I'm delirious: Remember, L'm not serious, So please don't get too furious! Ann Mero lives a life of ease. She always feels so gay. She's never bored nor has a care As she gads around all day. Bonnie Severson has got a job Drawing pin-up girls all day. And Elaine Paulson married young Now it's all work and no play. A player of professional basketball Dwayne Partlow's at Madison Square. With Carol Thompson's rooting on the side, They make a wonderful pair. Barbara Jacobs went to be An educated nurse. But instead of getting better- The patients all got worse. Ruth Miller went to college To study some more books. Ernest Straus is in the army Always bothering the cooks. An honest quiet lad was he- I'm speaking of Richard Kerr. ' He entered the political game And became a senator. A secretary in New York Aldyene Larson is at ease. She takes dictation of a sort While on the boss's knees. Donna Hawks owns a mansion And hasn't a single care. While working as a waitress She married a millionaire. Pat Mclsaac is famous now, And is sure to go down in history, But why that B appeared upon her card Will always remain a mystery. In '47 you will see K f cl ,Hg g , On some far-off enchanted isle 0' U Buzz Tabert taking it easy MAA Basking in the native girls' smx e. - Betty Hauser strong and boldonbil Is an- author'of some merit. W MW She lives alone in her palatial hom Since Van Johnson would not share HR Sweet and bright and good and kind A very pleasant mix. I'm speaking of the best in school The CLASS OF '46. And so we've reached the end at last. I know it's been a bore. So don't get tough-don't point that gun. I'll leave, quick, where's the door? Senior Class Will We, the Senior Class of '46, of Central High School, East Grand Forks, Minn., being of sound mind and memory, do make, publish and ordain to the juniors, this, our last will and testament. Eunice Babcock, after considerable debating, has decided to leave to Mae Eastman a very im- Eortant manuscript, How to Attract the Opposite Sex in One Easy Lesson. Not that you need it, horty. - In taking inventory, Bill Taxi Braden found that since he had an over abundant supply of personality and wit, he could easily toss a portion of it over to Eugene Mattson, Kenny Wolff and Bill Skoczylas. Don't fight over it, boys, there's plenty! JoAnn Giese will hereafter be the proud possessor of Mary Ann Hoye's quiet and Hubba- Hubba ways. Guaranteed to work, JoAnn! Ernest' Straus gallantly relinquishes to Douglas Hiney his never-failing ways of intriguing child- ren. He won't need it in the army anyway. We finally convinced DeLores Brinkman that she had more than enough sparkling athletic ability so she decided to bequeath a good share of it to Rita Larson and Marian Jenson. Use it, girls! Geraldine Bushee bestows upon lnez McDonald her sincere co-operativeness, along with her shyness and modesty. Clifford Mesedahl, Robert Sandlie and Bill Rand will be glad to hear that they are about to receive from Harvey the Hunk Christianson his executive airs plus a bit of his extra unneeded brawn. Lois Brains Egeland wholeheartedly offers to Audrey Larson her undying ability to get along with the teachers and a short pamphlet on How to Cause a Riot by Chewing Gum. ln a generous mood, Ronald Erickson bequeaths to Burrell 'Basgaard a few pointers on how to pass bookkeeping by winking at the teacher. I wouldn't take it too seriously, Burrell, might get you in trouble! Betty Nelson leaves her social airs and clever ideas to Carole Stuhr knowing that Carole will keep them from getting rusty. Betty Hauser, it seems, has decided to settle down and grants to Bernice McCullough all her hilarious ways in addition to a bit of her art ability. Barbara Jacobs unselfishly grants to Dorothy Harney all her tact, wit, and ability to charge! All his persuasive manner, George Stewart leaves to Freddie Kain, who at the same time will receive George's secret on how to make unnecessary remarks in problems class and still get along with Miss Reeves. Richard Kerr finally decided to part with his curling iron and pass it on to Alfred Torgerson. Richard also has an excellent system for receiving demerits. You might try to learn the formula, lfred. Shirley Hanson wills to Margaret Wurden her feminine ways and to all the juniors all the luck and happiness she's had as a senior. Junior Eid receives from Richard Keller all his deceiving but breathtaking manner in the pres- ence of women. He always gets results, Junior! Ruth Fleming leaves to Clarice Hotvedt the whole of her dramatic ability hoping that Clarice will use it well. You do that, Clarice! X Rose Marie Fillion is parting with some of her sunshiny disposition and gladly radiates it upon Marcella Schmidt, Marlene Zipoy and Myrtle Torgerson. Lois Giese and Alyce Schmaltz are the lucky benefactors not only of Bernice Fillion's athletic ability but also of her! ability to keep quiet in the halls! His will to do and do well, Morris Johnson generously gives to Frank Scheibel, and thrown in on the side is Morrie's fine attitude of co-operation. Something to take advantage of, Frank! Shirley Krenelka gladly gives her secret of keeping that beautiful hair wavey to Al Maloney. Lucky boy, Alfred! We finally persuaded Gladys Piker to extend some of her Arthur Murray dancing techniques over to Gene Fassett. LeRoy Stavig bequeaths to Orrin Hannawalt his cute and flirtatious ways besides the knack for curling his bangs ! Generous soul! J 072. Eileen and Ellen Vavrina have decided to reconcile their differences and therefore pass all their criticisms for each other on to Maxine Sheppard and Donna Young. This - besides their beauti- ful harmonizing ability! Don't let this break up your friendship, girls!!! Harriet Ritter receives from Aldyene Larson her amazing imagination. That studious look and ability to study long hours, Bev Quern graciously hands over to Lois Cleveland. Bev was also thinking of throwing in her own version of how to flirt while dancing but then decided she might need it herself. Avis Knutson is deciding to let go of the halo and the angelic look and shoots it over to JoAnn Mclsaac. JoAnn also will receive Avis's extreme love for shiny automobiles. Gladyce Johnson and Helen Kozel will jump for joy when they hear that Lenore Bateman has given up her well-developed art of self-expression along with her ability to intrigue men with a Southern accent. Mah! Mah! Carol Thompson believes, after several weeks of chemical experimentation, that she has finally hit upon a formula guaranteed to release a given amount of heat - provided the necessary charm is added to complete the reaction. This she hands over to Shirley Osmundson. Arnold Tiny Thompson says he would gladly give Doris Wehe his head of curly hair but that he expects in return a few of Doris's muscles. ls it a deal, Doris? Always on time, Dolores Buckner hands over her habits of punctuality all wrapped up in a lock of her golden hair to Gloria Mankie! Accentuate the positive and what have you got? Melvin Buzz Tabert positively giving full rights to his junior girl friend to none other than-well, natch-Joe Massee! Now, eliminate the negative - and - what do you know! Pat Mclsaac decided that the way to a man's heart isn't through his stomach after all - she's found a new way - so she's giving all her fudge-making abilities and cook-books to - that's right -- Joyce Bridgeford. Margaret Wolff is giving her shyness and lovely looks to two girls whom she knows will treat neither of them with any roughness-Harriet Stordahl and Mary Ann Wiertzema. Dorothy Pender is tired of looking down on everyone and is hereby bestowing upon Phyllis Hodge and Alva Olson only a couple inches of her height. We musn't take advantage, you know. We finally convinced Elaine Paulson that she blushed enough for two people, so she's passing this and a portion of her sereneness over to Dona Ellenson. Her season ticket to the Legion dances, Blanche Stallmo drops behind, with all her good wishes, to Delores Krueger. Bonnie Severson sees a depression coming on and decided that the most helpful thing she could do for the juniors would be to give Jack Sampson a few pointers on how to sell candy in a dime store - things may come to the worst, Jack, and think of the advantages! Robert Jorgenson and Lawrence Kliner need never worry about auto accidents from this time on - for Arden Mesedahl is giving them his fairy godmother who has so tenderly watched over him while he drivesl?l his carl?l -- and without brakes, too. Amazing isn't it?l Ruth Miller bequeaths to Beverly Lee her naturally curly hair and her radiant smile. Marguerite Stinar dug into her trunk of virtues and found that about the only thing she could afford to part with was a corner of her weird sense of humor. So she dusted it off, oiled it up a bit and expressed it to Donna Gilbertson. Darleen O'Brien is leaving to JoAnne DeGagne a long list of her dental appointments so that JoAnne's classes will be somewhat relieved when next year rolls around. Dwayne Partlow decided against all his tyrannical theories and is giving Herman Skyberg com- plete claim to all his secrets on how to rule the roost and not bring home the bacon-guaranteed not to work. Donna Hawks thinks that Donald Paulson and Jack Carney are about due for a quick change over and so bravely gives each of the boys an equal amount of her grown-up ways and sophisti- cated airs! Ann Mero has turned heroine and gallantly turns all her good absence excuses over to Ardell Bestland in hopes that Ardell will make good use of them. All the rest and residue of our property we heartily extend to the Junior Class Advisor for their use and benefit, and to be disposed of for the good of the coming classes, as she may see fit. In witness whereof, We the Class of i946 set our hands and seal this twentieth day of June, Anno Domini, one thousand nine hundred and forty-six. 073s Cut Seniors in the Service , mf ,W WU QW TOP ROW-Donald Lealos, Raymond Hofland, Ronald Sheppard.
