THE WIZRRD 1948 PRO ALIIS VOLUME TWENTY-FOUR PUBLISHED If THE SENIOR CLASS OF EDISON HIGH SCHOOL MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA Page 2 The golden age is before us. not behind us”—Saint Simon Foreword We of the Wizard Staff are particularly honored this year to be able to introduce the newly adopted school seal. This seal should typify for us the stamp of excellency which the community has come to associate with our students just as the trademarks of shoes symbolize quality of craftsmanship, and consequently become well known. Remember how most of us began school with a pair of brand-new shoes whose shine was our innermost joy? Now most of us are graduating with new shoes as part of our reawakened pride. The shoes of our first school days were those of our ambition; the pair we have now, the realization of our yearnings. Hardships and failures have been ours, and the shoes in which we trudged through them were well-worn before they bore us to success. After graduation, we will start off each in his own direction toward new horizons. We will walk our separate ways, sometimes falteringly, sometimes in shoes dusty from rough roads; but all of us will experience life to the fullest. Because we, in our youth, are strong, we will act with vigor. Though our minds and bodies grow weary, we will urge ourselves forward. Our lives are concerned with steps of progress; consequently, we, the Wizard Staff of 1948, have chosen SHOES as our theme. Through the pages of our book, it will be our privilege to take you wandering through the halls of Edison High. We hope that you will be able to recapture many joyous memories as you saunter with us along the lanes of the school year of 1948. Page 3 The seniors smile as they round anothor cornor.

Pago 5 3u JHrmnriant to IHtaa fcsthpr (Htjallman Miss Esther Challman resigned from her teaching position in the English Department of Edison High School in June, 1941. and died several years later, on January 23, 1946. No photograph of Miss Esther Challman is available, but this still life symbolizes her personality, for she always had leisure to listen to the needs or troubles of others; she possessed the knowledge of human nature that enabled her to give wise advice; she practiced the Christian precept of brotherly love by being tolerant toward and appreciative of those of all classes, races, and religions. She possessed many qualities that tend to make a person a true friend and an inspirational teacher. An extraordinary understanding of the problems of her pupils, an abiding charity in her attitude toward them; a fine sense of fair play and honor that she instilled in them; a gay originality in her approach to make them do their best; and, above all, a sparkling humor to bring them much of her keen joy of life—these traits make Esther Challman dear to those who had the privilege of her friendship.

Edison's pride swells as we think of our teacher who voluntarily gave up the luxuries of America to exchange with an Irish teacher for the year 1947-1948. Her enthusiasm equals any ever shown by an Edison teacher. Correspondence with her Irish students reveals that they are also fond of Miss Leary. She has visited the homes of her students from cottages to mansions, not concerned with their wealth but deeply interested in her pupils' welfare. She has shown an active interest in the Girl Guides of Ireland. Never thinking of herself but always of her fellow men. she has taught her Irish students many of the American games to their interest and enjoyment. Back in America we, as graduates of Edison, will always remember her for her abiding trust in us and for her always-willing help. For these reasons we, of the Senior class of 1948, dedicate this, our yearbook, to our understanding friend and teacher, Miss Florence Leaiy.

Page 9 I fACULTY Oxfords have always been regarded as the shoes that offer the most dependable support. These shoes give the feet that necessary lift to make them tireless. Our faculty supports us against discouragement and failure. They inspire us to pick our ways carefully lest we lose our paths. Eecause as children we had sturdy oxfords to wear, our feet grew strong and healthy. Because as students we had sincere help and advice, we have acquired vast resources of knowledge. Now we are ready to try our own ventures over new ways. As we have come to respect and admire our faculty, we hope that we may inspire respect and admiration in them as they watch us whom they have led. MR. REICHARD The principal.

Page 23 SENIORS Wearing the traditional cap and gown, symbols of scholastic achievement, we, seniors, are recognized as educated, youthful citizens of the present. But it is with happiness, tinged with sorrow and reluctance, that we bid farewell to our high school days of teen-age vigor. We put our school shoes away with the memories we treasure; now we are ready to face, with no illusions, the problems of the future. On graduation day, our feet will be shod in new shoes suggesting our promising future. As graduates of 1948, we will bring many honors to our alma mater as we shall surely become distinguished and valuable contributors to our community. i i ii I i n n ii U II K I H I II I r We Hope to Build The completion of our four year high school career was climaxed by the commencement exercises in the Edison auditorium January 22. Special awards were made at this time by Mr. C. E. Reichard, cur principal, and diplomas were presented by Mr. Willard Goslin, superintendent cf schools. Fern Sewell and Joan Groves carried out the program theme, Prejudice! Road Block to Progress, in their valedictory and salutatory speeches. Valedictorian: Fern Sewell. Now that our school days are over, we go forth to take our places Jn the world. The. schooling we !iave had should have prepared us o shoulder our responsibilities in .nodern society. Will we be 'Builders of a Brighter Road? We 3incerely hope that we may help to settle the problems of today in order to make the world a better place to live in. Those whom we may expect to do the most towards these goals will be our 12A class officers: Dale Johnson. Elise Forrest, Bill Calguire, and Gerald Tov-sen. We will always remember our school days under their leadership. CLASS OFFICERS Dal Johnson. Vic Pics.; Elis Forrest. Soc.; B.H Ca’.guiro. Troas.; Gerald Tovsen. Pros. Pago 26 A Brighter Road Beginning the week of graduation festivities. a dignified note was struck by the Baccalaureate Service in the Edison auditorium January 18. The Reverend Henry Lewis of the Lake Harriet Methodist Church, pointed out in his sermon that it is important for us to lead a spiritual as well as an intellectual and healthful life. The Choral Club and Choir, led by Mr. Elmer Sodergren, furnished the music for the service. Salutatorian: loan Groves. The task of helping our class with its school activities and social affairs rested on the able shoulders of our advisers: Mr. Hamrin, Miss Peterson, and Miss Ferguson. They were always cooperative, a trait for which our faculty is noted. Especially did they help in the arrangements for the banquet, one of the brightest spots in the galaxy of our senior days. ''Bells,'' the theme used in the program as well as in the decorations, was appropriate in ringing out the last of our high school days. Breaking an estab lished tradition, we held the banquet in the beautiful Columbia Chalet, the scene of many of our gay parties. CLASS ADVISERS Mr. Hamrin. Mibb Peterson. Misb Ferguson.

GLADYS WESTBERG Valedictorian We Prepare for The inspirational Baccalaureate Service June 13 in the Edison auditorium further prepared us for the duties and responsibilities awaiting us upon our graduation. We were reminded, by the more serious nature of the service, that although graduation is a happy occasion. it is also a solemn one. The Reverend Howard Conn of the Plymouth Congregational Church delivered an inspiring address. The Choral Club and Choir, directed by Mr. Sodergren, gave the finishing touch to an already beautiful service. Thus, after such an appropriate and thoughtful start, the train of graduation activities began to roll. The banquet, held at the Radisson Hotel. June 10. furnished the perfect climax to our school days. We will all be eternally thankful to our social adviser, Miss M. Simmons, and to the hard working committees who made this important event such a success. We wish also to express our thanks to our senior advisers for the helpfulness and consideration which they extended to us at all times. The theme of the banquet. Gone with the Wind , reflected our feelings as the close of our school days drew near. We will always remember this event as one of the gayest and most entertaining of our school careers.

World Citizenship DELORES PELTIER Salutatorian The Commencement exercises, held in the Edison auditorium June 17, marked the end of another era in our lives. The ceremony was a fitting climax to the four years of high school that we all enjoyed so well. Our class president. Lawrence Lawman, presented the class to Mr. Reichard after a short Invocation by the Rev. Reuben H. Ford. The program, with Delores Peltier acting as narrator, consisted of a series of interviews on World Citizenship, the theme of the program. Those students who participated in the interviews were Douglas Pratt, Delroy Gochnauer, Carol Williams, Loren Lucke, and Gladys Westberg. After a short address, Dr. Robert Gilchrist of the Board of Education, presented us with our diplomas. Mr. Reichard, our principal, presented the special awards and scholarships. Having completed the prescribed high school course, we feel prepared to take our places in the ranks of the adult world. It is on our shoulders that the responsibility of maintaining world peace and good International relationships will fall. It is up to us, then, to be good and worthy world citizens, so that we may do our share in promoting good will and friendship between ourselves and among other nations. Those who are already doing more than their share to promote good citizenship are the 12A class officers: Larry Lawman, Roger Hesselroth, Virginia Parlow, and Douglas Pratt. The future holds opportunities for these fine class leaders who to make our last days as seniors so C L A S 8—0 F F I C E R S Roger HeMolroth. V. Proa.; Lawrence Lawman, Pres.; Virginia Parlow, Sec.

Henry Active Seniors PREPARING TO LEAVE Courteous attentiveness, long a trait of successful students, was noticeably prevalent at our various senior functions. Students, especially at our senior prom, were meticulous in their manners. We've had an evening of enjoyment; now as we make ready to leave, the escorts help their dates” with their v raps. Loll Co right: L. Altermatt and D. Hanson, C. Chal-s;rom and D. Gochnauor. MUSIC AND INVITATION COMMITTEE The music committee provided us with enjoyable musical selections at our banquet and let us participate in a song fest. The invitation committee personally presented cordial invitations to the faculty and guest speakers at our banquet and arranged for their reservations. Both of these committees worked closely with the program committee. First row left to rtghl: J. Degldio. E Bodick, V. Brandt. |. Larson. Smith. P. Drake. Second row loft to right: J. Andorson, R. Dicairo, D. Haborman. MENU AND FINANCE COMMITTEES Our dinner consisted of a four course meal. To arrange for the great number of reservations and to disperse the available funds in such a way as to pay all debts was a task indeed. The finance and menu committees accomplished all this, however. First row—laft to right: D. Swanson. B. Pray. H. Roslin, I. Novak. Second row left to right: |. Campbell, R. Jernall. D. Gochnauer, C.

Loll to light: I nonayno, P. Hogan. I Forrest. S. Frick non, J. Edln, G. Warhol. PROGRAM COMMITTEE This group of students, through their combination of wit and wisdom, helped to put on a great program at our banquet. After-dinner speeches were given; the class history and prophecy were presented; and the gayest of atmospheres prevailed. Standing loit lo right: C. Williams, R. Maler, D. Larson. R. Walter. J.

Our various clubs provide ior us the extra-curricular activities we need in order to spend our leisure time wisely and get some value from it. Edison's clubs are organizations in which we get together with our teachers for a bit of fellowship and to promote friendship. In these clubs we learn the joy of helping others by our Red Cross work. Unselfishly, we offer our services as members of Stage Crew, Lunchroom Helpers, Ushers' Club, and Inventors' Club. In some organizations we are given opportunity to use our talents by our participation in assemblies given for the student body. In groups such as Choral Club and Sock 'n' Buskin, we can enjoy the company of others who have similar interests and tastes. Many of our special parties are sponsored by clubs whose members are interested in wholesome recreation for themselves and for others. An organization like our Student Council is primarily interested in helping its members to further student cooperation and school improvement. It is also the sponsor for our annual Vaudeville and of other fundraising events for the school. Our clubs all teach us to apply the principles of democracy and comradeship, making us more conscious of our abilities and of those of our schoolmates. ■ i g 0 g [i a g 1 i BAND G. Andorson. 1.

They Make The band provides music for football and baseball games, assemblies, and concerts. This organization meets with Mr. Lunkley during the fifth period daily. A student of any age who plays some instrument well may join the band, although members are usually selected from Second Band by Mr. Lunkley. The orchestra plays for the class play, commencement, and for the P. T. A. They, together with the band, give concerts and play at other schools. This musical group consists of those who have discovered the value of music and have learned to appreciate it to the greatest extent. ORCHESTRA H Aahcroll. M. Chudiak. C. Cacaa, J. Eklund, I.

Music The Choir provides music for assemblies and also for an annual concert given in conjunction with the Choral Club. This choral group is chosen from the chorus classes and from the Junior Choir. Each member eagerly hopes for the day when he will be chosen for the Choral Club. Operettas, concerts, and assemblies are the programs in which the Choral Club participates. They are a select group, usually eleventh and twelfth graders, chosen from the Choir by Mr. Sodergren. Outside of school they contribute to meetings of the P. T. A. and to general and special teachers conventions. VW-K °L|d,C sod n. F. S.w.,1, L !ohn o„, E. She,™. i. i:� Ma av'.teUJo.r ME Ur —C W� . « . I- «-• Thud row: J. Ottoman, V. Gren. J. Ruemak. P.

Scholastic Leaders Scholarship, leadership, character, honesty, and service determine one's eligibility lor the National Honor Society. The initial requirement is that a student be in the upper quarter of his class. He is then rated on the above characteristics by the active members of our chapter and the faculty. The National Honor Society assembly is presented semi-annually, once each semester, for the initiation of the new members. The officers speak on the purposes and standards of the society, after which those newly elected take the pledge and receive their honor pins. The upper picture shows the old members while the lower picture is of the new members initiated in January. NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY First row: J. Groves, J. Grabskt. I. LaVtgne, P. Drake. C.

The members try composing poems and stories; those who possess wider imaginations and greater initiative try their hands at plays. The Chess Club, headed by Mr. Erickson, meets every Wednesday at 3:00 p. m. Students, who have already learned to play chess and enjoy playing it, exercise their ability through this organization. Membership is also open to those students who have not played the game previously but are eager to learn. CHESS CLUB Soatod: D-Dicaire, J. Campbell Standing: W. Sholton. L. Nloderholer. W.

Initiative and Ambition Purely voluntary work is that which is done on the Record staff. Gossip, sports, school activities are all reported accurately and vividly by the staff. Under the supervision of Miss Albinson, the page editors make up the Record during the week to go to press by Friday. Since its origin twenty-four years ago the Wizard has won many awards. Last year, under the direction of Miss Ross, who has been the adviser since September, 1944, the year book received the National Scholastic Press Association's First Class Honor Rating. This year it is the aspiration of the staff to achieve All-American. i i WIZARD STAFF First row; M. Neumann. P. Krumrcy, Y. Logo . V. Parlow, C. Richardson. I. Grot! . L. Gorecki, J. Larson.

Membership enables them to become acquainted with many girls in Edison and consequently to make new friends. So that each girl will enjoy the work of the club, she assigns herself to some definite committee. School spirit is instilled into the girls by their cooperative work on these committees.

That's the theme of Ma Curry's lunchroom helpers’For help with any odd jobs to be done in the lunchroom during, before, or after the lunch period, one has only to call on Mrs. Curry's staff. This service that is essential to the appearance and health of the student body is appreciated by all members of the school. The familiar cry of I'm hungry heard very frequently in the halls of Edison, can easily be satisfied by one of Miss Lee’s lunches. Miss Lee and her helpers make it possible for Edison students to have hot. nourishing lunches. Everything is served quickly and efficiently in a room that is filled three times daily by Edisonians.

Willingly Giving up their fourth hour study periods, the hall guards donate their time to securing order during the lunch periods. No pupil is allowed to go up stairs or through the halls to disturb the classes in session. Mr. Janes, who has direct authority over this group, relinquishes much of his time, also, to help with this service to the pupils as well as to the teachers of Edison. Just like traffic cops are Miss Erb's stair guards. In Edison going up or down the wrong stairs is definitely out. It is a very unattractive, thankless type of work, but it must be done. For performing this entirely voluntary job, the stair guards should be given a vote of thanks. Tneir willingness to sacrifice their time and effort toward making a smoothly-run school deserves commendation. STAIR GUARDS F r t row: J. Gould. C. Robert . Third row: J. Davenport. D. Gochnauer.

These Organizations The Hi-Haven Committee, consisting of B. Anderson and J. Gould, is the Edison representation on the all-city board which plans the events to take place at the YWCA where Hi-Haven is held every Friday night. The campfire girls were organized in 1912 for the development of leadership and citizenship in girls of junior high school age. Their projects this year included a mothers' tea and doing clerical work such as sealing and folding envelopes for the Red Cross and Community Chest. Besides doing this volunteer work, they enjoy hikes, overnight outings, and cook-outs. Indian names are given to the various groups each with its particular meaning. Certain campfire songs have come to be associated with this girls' group and often we hear them singing The Fire Song, one of their favorites. TIPI K O D A Fu� l low: P. Tapank, C. Thompson, P.

A broad-minded group, the French Club is interested in the French student from SPAN; they occasionally have a French visitor from the University of Minnesota. The Pan American League organized in 1942 by Mrs. Kellner works outside of classes at bringing about a more thorough knowledge of the customs and people of Spain, Mexico, and Latin American countries. Each year a program is presented by the League celebrating Pan American Day. Books, dolls, and lapel pins are also made and sold by the club members for Pan American Day.

For Culture An active group is the German Club under the counsel of Miss Sorenson. Each year two joint parties are held by the language clubs. This year at Christmas time the German Club presented Knecht Ruprecht” as their contribution to the festivities. Another of the group's activities is to make a donation to the Louis G. Cook Memorial Fund at the end of each school year. These are only a few of the many activities participated in by the energetic German Club. At present Miss Sorenson is devoting her spare time toward helping to band together all the German Clubs of Minneapolis.

Page 79 SCHOOL Lift A row of stools at a soda fountain, each with a pair of loafers entwined about the legs, and a counter studded with frosty coke bottles—how typical of the high school crowd! Our social life in school is as bubbling with youthful enthusiasm as this comer drug store. In school we have assemblies, group parties, the annual Student Council Vaudeville, class plays, and Homecoming—all of them festivities which give zest to our school life. The senior prom is the climax of our school social life. Girls, in fluffy, graceful formals of delicate bonbon colors; boys in pressed suits and bow ties, both, with eyes sparkling with enjoyment and good humor, compose a picture to be long remembered. The air is filled with sweet, familiar music; and dainty corsages, alluringly fragrant, add a thrill to the evening's enchantment. Simple, everyday, good times or long-anticipated events—all blend together to make us bubble over with wholesome, worthwhile fun. If we, as we graduate, remember the values of wisely-planned entertainment and how necessary it is to develop happy dispositions, we can make our lives fuller; we can continue to create joy for ourselves and for others.

Hands Across Last summer Miss Florence Leary, one of our teachers, left for Belfast, Ireland, under the new exchange system. In return Miss Irene McKibbin came to Minneapolis where she is now teaching at Jordan Junior High. Miss Leary, a physical education instructor while at Edison, is now teaching not only physical education, but also the subjects of a regular grade school curriculum. Naturally she mentioned the sports activities of her pupils in her letters, particularly soccer, and said that only the fact, that so few balls were available, prevented all the children from participating.

The Sea The Edison student body decided to send their greetings in the form of one or two soccer bills which would be of use to her pupils, too. First a leather ball, then a rubber one was purchased, packed, and sent on its way to Belfast. The balls were financed by letting any one sign them at the rate of a dime a signature. Students, teachers, administrators, and clerks signed their names to the bills. The entire student body hopes the Malone School in Belfast will win all its matches with these balls.

SPORTS Wearing the shoes typical oi various sports, our teams meet their foes on the gridiron, cinder track, or gym floor with victory, coupled with good sportsmanship, as their aim. Though not always victorious, we may always be consoled by the knowledge that our team participated as a top contestant. With the help of our coaches and athletic instructors. we have learned to respect the other fellow; we have played cooperatively and earnestly, winning many events and honors for our school in sports. If we did not win a desired trophy or cherished cup, we knew that we still had the reputation for being a blue-ribbon school—a reputation for fair play and fair players on every sports field. We have gained this good name through our keen sportsmen and through those of us who, as spirited spectators, cheered from the stands. Now, as graduates, by practicing the good sportsmanship we admired in our athletes, we can set the pace for a bright future in this community of ours. The Edison Football team of 1947 proved to be a greater success than had been expected. Edison took the first game 13-6 from the future champs. South High. The next game with West, the defending city champions. found the fighting Inventors going down to defeat 12-7. Edison’s heroes were Sledz, Regel, Kirberger. and Johnson. In a non-conference game. Edison soundly beat De LaSalle, the Catholic champions of the state, by 13-6. Kenny Kirberger ran 75 yards for a touchdown. This victory gave new heart to the Tommies. Roosevelt seemed to stymie Edison and the outcome was a 0-0 score. The Inventors could not score no matter how close they came to the Teddies' goal line. John Moe played his finest game on defense.

The Tommies' slogan for Homecoming was Sack the Millers , but it was the other way around as Washburn scored in the final 50 seconds to beat the Toms 6-0. Chuck Rosso played his greatest game for Edison as he blasted for long gains and scored two touchdowns against Southwest. This was probably the best game the Tommies played all season. The last game of the season was fought out with Marshall, the Inventors' arch foe. A1 Regel was great as he blocked two Marshall kicks to set up two touchdowns. Edison came out on top 19-12.

The team suffered some reverses, however, and was defeated twice during the season. South made the upset of the season as they downed Edison 39-34 in the last game of the year. Many young stars developed their talents for next year in various games. Pete Warhol and Ed Kuduk showed great promise to carry on the fine basketball prestige of Edison. The team humbled Marshall, their East Side rivals, to give our squad some consolation over losing the city title.

The Inventors completely dominated the play as they grabbed rebounds and made amazing set-up shots. There was no high point man as the boys shared the scoring equally.

Our prosperous community flourishes as proof of the excellent quality both of their goods and their services, by their modern business methods, these men have enriched our community, placing it at the top of Minneapolis' local commercial centers. Concentrated in a growing area, we find numerous industries and enterprises. There are to be found innumerable apparel shops featuring in its completeness the new look. With the arrival of television and other new and improved electrical appliances there has been a rapid opening of new stores offering equipment for home use, along with repair services. Together with the new look in clothing, we also find the “new look in transportation as we see the various models in motor companies and car lots. To meet the large demand for building materials, our lumber and construction companies have programs of expansion that will make them top industries. These businesses, along with the many professions, have been our friends supporting many of our activities. Those of us who will now become partners in business, stepping into the comfortable, work-a-day shoes of businessmen, will find the standards they have set worth reaching for.

Printing cries the sorrows and joys of every hour. It speaks to people of every kind and makes their hearts beat with tenderness or drives them on to war. The Printing Press sends knowledge abroad as Nature sends the rain. One nourishes the soil while the other enriches man's intelligence. In five or ten or fifty years from now, when memories have faded, and many things are forgotten, this printing will bring back fresh and new, the hours you spent in school for preparation for what we hope will be a full measure of success in the future.
