Our Senior Athletes Owen Sizer has played basketball since he was in the eighth grade. He earned his first letter when he was a Sophomore and was captain this year. He has played regular at end in football for two years and has two letters. A letter man in track, he does the high jump, high and low hurdle, shot put, and half mile. He ranks as one of the most outstanding athletes the school has ever had. Herbert Trosin plays at forward in basketball and is a two year letter man. In football he has played half and fullback and here also he has earned two letters. In track he runs the 220 yard dash, high and low hurdles and does the high jump and broad jump. Reuben Marquardt came to us as a Senior, trans- ferring from Annandale, Minnesota. Already a three year letter man in basketball, he annexed another this year doing noble duty at guard. Inexperienced in football, he soon caught on and made a “whizz” at fullback. In track he pushes the shot and runs the 220 yard dash. Alvin Sand, ha iling from out east of town, has made his mark as a tackle in football, having earned two letters. In track he runs the 440 and puts the shot. His brother Edwin has made an effective guard in football and has garnered two letters in this sport. Walter Leet, the “streak” from Redfield, S. D., made the third all-state football team as a Junior. Too many birthdays made him ineligible this year, but he is not to be forgotten and we are sure his opponents will remember him. Raymond Neumann has played basketball for four years and has earned two letters, playing at either forward or guard. As a Senior he annexed another letter by playing end in football. Duane Crabtree is a two letter man in basket- ball, playing at guard. He is also a two letter man in football, playing at center and acting as captain this year. In track he runs the mile and half mile and takes a turn at vaulting. He has one letter in track, earned last year. William Jackson has earned a letter in football and has participated in basketball. He is active in track, running the 440 yard dash and the half mile. He is out to win the coveted track letter. Tp )ur splendid coach, Mr. 0. K. Ehlers, the Sen- ioE ptfys wish to extend their thanks. Through his flforts and untiring zeal, athletics in our school have been brought to a very high standard. To the boys still in school go our best wishes for continued success. This has been a very successful year in the field of dramatics. Students have given their full sup- port and co-operation to make dramatics a success and to make this activity one of the most outstanding in school history. Dramatics not only challenges the support and loyalty of the student body but is also a way of raising money for other school activ- ities ’ and social events such as the Junior-Senior banquet. There will always be a number of students who have dramatic talent which can be utilized and de- veloped in the giving of plays and in declamation. These activities are very beneficial in building up these talents. After appearing in a number of plays or declamations, the performer soon ceases to have “stage-fright” and begins to feel at home before an audience. “Home Town Girl” This all-high-school play was presented Novem- ber 22 and 23. It was given to supply the students who were not playing football with a worthy activity as well as to finance the Junior-Senior banquet. The play was both an artistic and a financial success. The cast of characters was as follows : Luke Stone, a small town lawyer John Dunphy Caroline Arms, Luke ' s cousin Clara Schmierer Marian Hastings, Luke ' s niece Frances DuRand Arthur Jennings, in love with Marian.. ..Scott Walker Washington Lafayette Stubbs, himself ....Donald Rekow Mrs. Hastings-Smith, Marian ' s aunt. .Miriam Crabtree Leroy Hastings-Smith, Marian ' s cousin .. .Robert Maercklein Amanda Whitaker, a neighbor Lillian Johnson Ebenezer, a peace officer Vernon Heckelsmiller Sherman O.
