This volume of the Tchogeerrah has been published in the hopes that by serving as a hairror ol our high school life for the past year, it may, in years to come, help us to recall these pleasant memories and happy associations formed in the school year l938f1939.

The United States spends more for education each year than the rest of the world com' bined. Fort Atkinson believes in education to the extent that our citizens spend annually 8100.000 to maintain our school system. The Board oi Education is attempting to meet the educational needs of our community by having special courses. lt is interesting to note that the rural enrollment of our schools has inf creased from 50 high school students in 1920 to 200 in 1939. 512.000 in tuition fees was paid to our school district by our rural communities last year. This large amount in tuition fees, the Board of Education feels is indicative of the community's interest in our educational system. As the Board realizes that all of our high school graduates cannot attend college. our cur' riculum has been enriched with courses for these young men and Women to better prepare them' selves for their future positions of responsibility. . ' It is our sincere hope that the crying need in America for honest and efficient leadership may, he anwvered in part by the Fort Atkinson and surrounding community youths who have bettered themselves by attaining a high school education.

American Beauty Rose Class History On September 3, 1936, our class of '39 started on a fourfyear trip aboard the boat Fort Atkinson , setting sail on the Sea of Education . Our first advisor was Miss Ann Fadness. After a series of political campaigns the following officers were elected: President-Robert Heide, Vice President-Loren Wittmaiiii, Secretary and Treasurer --Jean Crerar. A series of minor parties were sponsored on the lower deck-namely, the Junior High School. The next year we were promoted to the higher deck-the Senior High School. That year our executives were: Robert Heide, Presidentg Warren Bienfang, Vice Presidentg Percy Wolfraiiim, Secretary and Treasurer. Miss Larsen was our advisor for the next two years. In the oratory contest Harold Witte won the first honor with Clyde Morris as his alternate. We gave a minor dance this year. Our Junior year was filled with business which was undertaken by the President, Robert Heide: Vice President, Herbert Gumbleg Secretary and Treasurer, Marion Habel and Mark Kerschensteiner, jr. Harry May led our class in basketball and was elected captain of the next year's team. In the forensics contest at Watertown, Clyde Morris placed tirst in oratiory, and Robert Bemus Hrst in extemporaneous speaking. At Wluitewziter, Clyde won third in oratory. Lillian Trottier also participated in forenf sics. Of course, the prom was a gala event. Miss Larsen helped us produce a very sucf cessful promenade expressed in the deep sea motif with music by Eddie Thiessen and his tenfpiece band. Our prom royalty was the popular couple, Ruth Covey and Wen' dell Friedel. A broadcast of the prom was transmitted at 9:30. Our last year in Fort High School was filled with events that we shall never for' get. At our election of officers, Wendell Friedell was made Presidentg Arlene Richter, Vice President, and Ruth Covey, Secretary and Treasurer. Our Senior float placed first in the Homecoming Parade with Consuming The Cheese as its theme. The an' nual staff, under Arlene Richter-chief editor, and Lillian Trottier-assistant editor, started plans for what they hoped would be Fort's best annual.

Ed Burns fRobert Heidej, a chemistry student, has turned his room into a laboratory, where he experi' ments with a substitute for dynamite. Vic Lewis fHarold Wittcb, an art student, sets up his dias and easel in the livingfroom. Howard Brant fWilliam' Hedhergl, a senior, types frantically at a term paper on zoology. Lou Herron fFern Hackj, a journalism student, breezes in every now and then to use the typewriter and-maybe-to see Ed. Anne Purcell Uean Crerarj, How:u'd's heart-interest , has forgotten to reserve rooms at the hotel for her millionaire father and mother fMarlc Kerschenf steiner and Mary Bradleyj. She persuades Howard to put her father up in his room. When Mr. Purcell arrives Vic mistakes him for an art model whom he has engaged to pose for a picture. Vic and Ed grab Mr. Purcell and tie him to a hatrack. The mistake is discovered ang Mr. Purcell departs in fury and withdraws his offer to present 11 new science building to the co ege. Howard's Aunt Maude fBetty Muirl unexpectedly arrives, She is putting Howard through college. She learns of his failure to pass the zoology course and gets on the good side of Prof. Bean Uohn Romoserl and persuades him to pass Howard. Anne aided by her chum, Vivian QLucia Maclcj, Vic's girl, and by Vic posing as a doctor, puts on a deathbed scene and tricks her father into signing a paper promising the new science building if Howard is allowed to grad' uate. After much trouble and confusion President Dixon fRobert Bemusj receives the paper. lt's all fast, furious and funny-with loud explosions every now and then from Ed's room-and it all ends entirely to everybody's satisfaction. . The eilicient prompters were Marion Habel and Marion Schiferl, and Elmer Oberleicner was the valuable stage manager. We are grateful to Miss Converse and Miss Graper for their directing which helped to make this play a success.

I think someone should pass a law To be an unbroken rule: That parents, guardians, and teachers, too, Couldn't make kids go to school. We couldn't see any reason But to kindergarten we were hauled . We didn't do a thing, so teacher said, When she scolded us, we bawled . When Katherine built a house of blocks, Babe would kick it down. i'Kersch and Stretch would stand and laugh While Billy Hedberg was a clown , When Bobby Rohde pulled my hair, Everyone would start to iight. Gracie Talcott never got a scratch, But the rest of us were sights . Betty Muir liked to scream just to see Norma and Violet jump, She'd push Bill Hedberg down the stairs Then run to kiss the bump. We were the gang from Hoard, But Barrie was much worse. Arlene Richter would play in the sand And throw it at Clyde Morris. The Caswell bunch were tuflies With Pete Miller and Hartwigl' there. The black eyes and bloody noses Gave their mothers all gray hair. The gangs pulled through the first six gradesg In seventh they got together. A lot of good those lessons did! We were still as dumb as ever. In ninth grade rural students came And joined our peppy ranks. It's surprising that our teachers did Survive our countless pranks. Thirteen years of classes Has been a waste of time. Why, all that strenuous brainwork Is enough to'ruin one's mind. We're certainly glad it's over- My brain's all crammed and 'Lwhirled . But nevertheless, we won't forget- We've got a grudge against the world.

No group of that size can effectively function without organization so they promptly elected Marian Habel as president, Sally Ann Linke as secretary, and Norma jean Trieloff as treasurer. A A Q Regularly every Monday at 3 136, you could hear them working under Mrs. Hagef mann's capable direction on such selections as GlowfWorm , Dark Eyes , Car mena , and many others. They sang at several different functions during the year. At Christmas, they. pre' sented O Little Town of Bethlehem as their part of the main room Christmas pro- gram. They also sang this number for the meeting of the Jefferson, Watertown, and Fort teachers which was held here. On February 26, they sang GlowfWorm and By the Waters of Minnetonka at the concert presented by members of all musical or' ganizations of the city schools to raise money for band uniforms. Practically every day after school for two weeks preceding-the Music Festival, held at Milton this year, they could be heard practicing diligently on their contest numbers. They sang Lift Thine Eyes and By the Waters of Minnetonka as their entry. At the end of the year, pins were awarded to those seniors completing four years of glee club work. They completed their program for the year by singing at Commencement. Page Thirtymine M, ,Qt egg? Boqfi' Ghana The Boys' Chorus was reorganized this year under the d' Ct' un of Miss Lea, who studied under Dr. Melius Christiansen, the director of the f t. Olaf Choir. This group was organized to promote musical interest a Ong the boys as well as for the personal pleasure of the members. No officers were elected, as they deemed themselves one happy body. Various performances, which met with the best of approbation from our citizens, were given for: The Rotary Club, The Senior Music Study Club, a Safety Meeting, a concert at the Municpal.Building, the reception of Governor Heil, and the Commence' ment Exercises. The personnel is as follows: Bob Simdon Hollace Tews Merland Bennett Tom Tuttle Dean Matthews Clyde Morris Bill johnson Don Shook Bob Bemus Bill Hedberg Dick Strommen Ed McGowen Harold Witte Bob Nelson james Simons George Pfetferkorn Robert E. May Harold Mittag Bob Hyde john Romoser e Mud Ghaua lj. 7 The mixed chorus was composed of the Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs. This year sophomores were also given the privilege of becoming members. Previously, only sen' iors and juniors were allowed to belong. The group was under the direction of Miss Margaret Lea. - A They were called upon several times during' the year to present their talents. Some of the selections they presented were This Night , O Beautiful Yuletiden, O Morn of Beauty , With a Voice of Singing , and others. 'LC Ivlorn of Beauty and With a Voice of Singing were the numbers theyfsang in the Music Festival, held in Milton this year. 1 Their last effort for the year was Write a Voice of Singing by Martin Shaw, which they sang for Commencement.

Often in the fall and spring one can see the high school band out practicing marching for the annual spring festival which we all look forward to as the bancl's greatest feat of the year. The able drum majors, Betty Muir and Janet Dexheimer, have shown their ability in leading the band. In the spring of 1939 the high school band showed its good form at the tournament at Milton where they hoped to appear in the new uniforms. Unforf tunately the uniforms didn't arrive in time. However, Fort did very well by placing hrst division in both sight-reading and concert and second division in marching. The first division winners played instrumental solos were Harold Witte in Class A with a clarinetg HaroldiiMittag in Class A with a baritoneg Marjorie Allen, Class B with a baritoneg Priscilla Oettmeier, Class B with a cornetg and John Romoser, Class B with an oboe. The second division winners were a cornet trio comprised of Hollace Tews, Bob Heide, and Bob Merriman in Class Ag Hazel Puerner in Class B with a cor' netg Bob Simdon, Class B, tubag and Ruth Romoser, Class B, bassoon. The third divif sion winners were Doris Trieloff in Class A with a trombone and Marjorie Oettmeier, Class B, clarinet. V The Fort Atkinson High School Band has the distinction of having one of the widest ranges of instruments for a band of its size. This is possible because the oilicials of the school have bought various instruments of less known character and lent them to members of the band. At present the school owns thirty different instruments and has purchased all the music used by the band. The members of the Fort Atkinson High School Band have elected this year, Rob' ert Simdon, presidentg Edward McGowan, secretaryg and Harold Iviittag, treasurer. As in the past, the band has furnished a pep band to play at basketball games and has provided entertainment for country school gatherings and ParentfTeachers' Association meetings. It is great fun for the members and good entertainment for their audiences. This year two bands were organized z, namely, a boys' band and a girls' band.

Treastwer Because of the large number interested in dramatics the club was divided into eight groups with a chairman appointed for each group. Each chairman was held re- sponsible for the entertainment at one meeting of the club. The object of this arrange' ment was to have every member of the club participate in something at least once dur' ing the school year. In case of necessity one chairman had the right to go to another chairman to borrow one of his members. I The eight chairmen were: Evelyn Schloesser, Merline Westphall, Marion Feller, Marion Schiferl, Merland Bennett, Sally Ann Linke, Mary Jane Case, and Norma Jean Trieloff. One act plays were given with specialty numbers. The plays were primarily for the beneit of the players and the members of the club but on February 22 a group of players presented Washington at Home before the assembly. The cast consisted of the following: Betty Hampel, Merland Bennett, Elmer Oberleitner, Herbert Gumble, Mary jane Case, Harry Miller, and Fred Ehrke. One meeting which was particularly helpful to the members dealt with the applif cation of makefup. Robert Smith allowed himself to be macle up as an old man with a two weeks' growth of beard. The foundation make-up was the same as for any old man but for whiskers we were astonished to know that burned paper could be used. The paper was of course texture and charred-it was then crunched together and powdered. This black substance was put on the victim's face and he looked as though he really needed a shave. The makefup for the plays was all done by the members themselves. Miss Leinfelder was advisor of the club. Pagefortyffour 71:4 Nu' Glad The Art. Club meets every club day in room 17, and is under the supervision of our art instructor, Miss Matthews. ' The club is divided into the following groups: U Cartooning, Zj Sketching, 31 Architecture, 45 Modeling, 'ij Leather Work. Each member has joined the group in which type of work he is most interested. ' Cartooning became the outstanding work accomplished. Modeling and leather followed and some excellent work was done in architecture. Sketching of all types was done at every meeting. The club was of practical value because the work done was useful for school or followed along the line of the vocation the student picked for the future. 7fze ana! elud- The Sewing and Knitting Club is a combined group and numbers about thirty girls. The girls chose Beulah Kunkel to be their president, Joan Black their vicefpresif dent, and Mary Michyeta as secretary. Their advisors are Miss Converse and Miss Graper.

The Talcott girls, Grace and Helen, will have some deciding to do as to who is going to wear the sweater they are knitting. .loan Black is our star worker. She has finished a luncheon cloth and is now working on a sweater. Katherine Rumary thinks quite a lot of her dog. She doesn't want it to catch cold so she hurried to get its sweater knitted. It seems that Ruth Romoser is working industriously on a bedspread for somebody's wedding present. I wonder if Louise Verity always has cold feet? I see she is knitting bed socks so as to keep them warm. Page Fortyffive Row 2: Clyde Morris, Rolland Draves, Mr. Holmberg, Irene Rumary, George Pfeiierkorn, Robert Bemus. Row 1: Sally Ann Linke.

At thc beginning of the season, Mr. Holmberg passed pledges around in which we all promised lj not to be absent from any squad meeting without previous arrange' ments, and 21 not to undertake any extra activities which would interfere with our work. We obeyed and frequently came although often our beloved coach would rather we had remained at home . . . for all the work we accomplished between jokes about the Britishers. Before we undertook league competition we attended the annual Speech Institute at Ivladison on November eighteenth, and also had practice debates with Deerfield and Stoughton High Schools. League debates were held at Whitewater, where we won one debate out of six. The people who debated in the regular competition were Rolland Draves, Ireene Rum' ary, Laura Ouweneel, Lillian Trottier, and George Pfelferkorn. Our alibi was: Mr. Holmberg believed in developing extemporaneous speakers in individuals rather than robot teams whose speeches were memorized from pamphlets distributed by the World Wide Debate Peddling Company, Inc. Of course, we can always call the judges incompetent dodoesg but who are we to judge the judges?

The activities have been extended to rural crop judging and plowing contests. One of the outstanding activities is the rural school crop judging contest. The Rural School Crops judging Contest is conducted by the Fort Atkinson High School Future Farmers Chapter. The junior and Senior 'iAg boys are divided into two groups that visit the twentyffive rural schools located near Fort Atkinson, and demonstrate the judging of corn and potatoes to the rural pupils. Last year the rural pupils spent the day in Fort Atkinson. In the morning the schools were divided into groups and each group visited two different industries in Fort Atkinson. At 1 :OO P. M. there was a short program, after which the contest took place. Each year the Board of Education, under the auspices of the Future Farmers and agricultural department, holds a Rural Banquet to which the parents of Future Farmer members and also members of the Farmers' Evening School are invited. Last year the prizes were awarded to the winners in the Rural School Crops judging Contest by the members of the Board of Education. Honorary memberships in our local Future Farm' ers Chapter were given to Hve men who have offered their assistance in helping us carry out our program of work, and who have clone outstanding work in dairying. These men were: Clarence Trielolf, Edward Binkert, ,lack Nisbet, Roy I'Ietts,- and William Boese. Twenty'th.ree members of our Future Farmers Chapter left Fort Atkinson June 9, 1938 on a Hve day camping trip in the Big Lakes Region at Chetek, Wisconsin. On their journey northward, the boys stopped off at Poynette and visited the Wisconsin State Experimental Game and Fur Farm. They arrived at Chetek at 4:00 P. M. and spent Hve enjoyable days lashing, swimming, and playing games. Last year's State Fair was di llercnt from the State Fairs of other years. Instead of having 4'I'I exhibits and Future Farmer exhibits under separate departments, they were combined, with the several other youth organizations, to form a Junior State Fair, hav' ing their own premium list. Many of our local Future Farmer members won prizes on their exhibits in crops, fruits, calves, poultry, and in the various judging contests. At the Jefferson County Fair, the Fort Atkinson High School Future Farmer booth won first place. The Annual State Judging Contest was held at the University of Wisconsin, Oc' tober 31' and November l. Our F. F. A. Chapter entered a Dairy Cattle team and a Dairy Products team. Both teams scored Good Allen Hetts, Charles McIntyre, and Herbert Gumble made up the Dairy Products team and Vern Erdman, Bill Ward, and Harlow Leonard the Dairy Cattle team. Charles McIntyre scored ninth high indif vidual in the state in judging dairy products. Robert W. May represented our F. F. A. Chapter at the State Future Farmers meeting at Madison. Saturday afternoon, Novemf ber lst, the boys attended the Wisconsin Marquette football game. On October 27, 1938 the Fort Atkinson High School Chapter of Future Farmers and the Vocational School Chapter of Future Farmers conducted their Second Annual Plowing Contest, under the direction of their advisors, N. O. Eckley and M. F. Ross. The chapters are greatly indebted to Roy Hetts, president of our Future Farmers, for his cooperation in making our plowing contests possible by letting us have them on his farm for the past two years. Prizes were awarded to the best plowers in the Junior and Senior divisions, to the winners in the showmanship contests, colt show, age telling conf test, business men's milking contest, and the business men's harnessing contest. In the evening a Harvest Ball was held at the Municipal Building, at which time the prizes were awarded to the winners in the contests. The champion of the business men's milk' ing contest was crowned in an impressive ceremony. Page Fortyfnine .

The membership numbers fortyfnine girls of the sophomore, junior, and senior classes. The constitution was drawn up and signed by the charter members. The folf lowing oiiicers were elected to serve for the present year: President, Ruth Coveyg Vice President, Valerie Roessler and Kathleen Finkg Secretary, Betty Zeugnerg and Treasf urer, Shirley Ann Grady. The qualifications of the members are good character, pep, and intellectual ability. At the decision of the faculty, membership may be discontinued because of a student's failure to live up to the qualifications. The organization has accomplished the purpose for which it was organized and has provided the cheerleaders with uniforms. The money for these uniforms was raised bv dances and candy sales sponsored by the organization. The students belong' ing to this organization are identified by the emblem, a silver arrow with the name Redskins embossed on the shaft. Advisors : Mr. R. F.

Through the cooperation of all its mem' bers the athletes and athletic functions are held together. The boys in the club try to set a good example within our school and improve their surroundings whenever possible. The Club is an honor society. Only those boys who have earned major letters in athletics are admitted. The duties of the club are to elect captains and choose the most valuable player in basketball and football. The captains chosen for the coming year arc: Don Fry, football, and Robert Krueger, basketball. Bob Miller and Harry May were chosen the most valuable players in football and basketball respectively. John Fromader is this year's track captain. One of the most important accomplishments of the club this year was to establish a standard F club pin.

A. The G. A. A. was organized again this year for all Senior High girls interested in all types of athletic games and sports. The club is under the direction of Miss Frey. In October more than ninety girls turned out for the first meeting at which we elected the following ofiicers: Marion Habel ............................ President Marian Hartwig .............. Sec. and Treas. Ruth Covey ...................... Vice President Archie Leigh Alley ........ Point Secretary A chairman was selected for each sport. She in turn chose captains for the teams and they picked their players. Games were played each Tuesday night after school in the form of elimination and round robin tournaments. During the past year representatives of G. A. A. attended two Play Days . In January a group of five girls chosen from the three classes of Senior High went to Lake Mills for a Wiiiter Sports Party. The girls arrived at 9:30 and after getting ac' quainted with girls of other towns, they went out to engage in any winter sport they desired. Several hours of active play whet the appetite for the hearty lunch which folf lowed. The afternoon was made complete with pantomines and social dancing. Early in May a group of seven girls went to Janesville for another Sports Day . Morning activities were held out-offdoors. The big treat of the day was a splash party in the swimming pool. We hope to sponsor a Play-day at Fort Atkinson next year. The organization sports are divided into two groups. The first is team sports such as basketball, volleyball, soccer and kittenball. This year's G. A. A. basketball was very lively and loads of fun. Ruth Schilberg and her team captured the championship. Howf ever a member of another team was highest individual scorer with 104 points. Nice playing, Chuck Young! The second group is individual activities such as tennis, skatf ing, sliding, and bowling. For each activity in which a girl participates she receives a certain number of points. When she has earned one thousand points she is entitled to an F, the only emblem the organization offers. The G. A. A. is primarily an organization for every girl's enjoyment. It is hoped that she will gain worthwhile attitudes and habits in recreative sports for leisure time use, and that learning to play the game will make her do a better job in later life. Special emphasis is put on good sportsmanship. The G. A. A. is again closing a very successful year and we hope that Miss Frey has enjoyed every moment of it as we members of the Girls' Athletic Association have. Page Fifty-th ree Row 3.

This year's journalism Club is a continua- tion of the Journalism Club of last year. We're succeeding, so we're a good project! Several new departments were added to the club this year and all were improved upon. We've put out our,school newspaper, the Sefl'li, about twice a month for the enjoy' ment of anyone affiliated with, or interested in, the Fort Atkinson Senior High School. This club was organized for several reasons. First of all, a good school newspaper adds to the prestige of any school. Secondly, a good spirit of cooperation and ambition is needed for such an organization. Thirdly, orginality, dependability, and skill in writing, art work, arranging, and typing are links in the chain of a good newspaper. There are some who leave the staff with the close of this school year and there are some who will join the staff with the opening of the next school year, all have helped or will help to push the Se-Hi ahead and make it outstanding among school papers. Page Fiftyffour pimp-fjonq Glad A club was fomied under the supervision of Warren Bienfang, with Bud Kem' meter performing the duties of secretary and treasurer. The meetings were held every Thursday evening in the old Legion rooms of the Mtinicipal building. The purpose of the club was to afford a new interest in recreation for the winter months. This sport was met with much enthusiasm and cooperation on the part of its members and all enjoyed themselves very much. The players were divided into three divisions and were classified according to their ability at the game. The twentyfone players were grouped into seven teams, each team consisting of three players, one from each division. The above arrangement was used as the basis of a good school tournament. Bud Kemmeter won in the first division. Garth Godfrey proved best in the second division, and David Punzel came out on top in the third division. W Glad A club was formed under the supervision of Mr. Sundt with the purpose of conf structing worthwhile woodworking projects. The officers elected to serve the club were: Don Fry, Presidentg and LaVerne Reinke, Secretary and Treasurer. The mem- bers worked during each club period, hut found that this was not enough, so nights after school were devoted to their projects. A few of the best projects that have been turned out belong to Raymond Lehman, Wesley Kutz, and LaVerne Reinke. The members of this worthwhile club are: Robert Krause, John Werner, Raymond Lehf man, Stanley Nettum, Wesley Kutz, Fred Heth, Durwood Bergman, Leo Maiberger, LaVerne Reinke, and Don Fry. 804,11 eww, ew The boys' cooking club met with Mis Boese on Thursday afternoons.

These mixers were sponsored by various organizations and clubs. Cn September 16, a dance was held in the gym after the Prairie du Sac game. It was sponsored by the Se Hi. The decorations were very cleverly made from newspaper. Along the balcony large letters spelled the message Se Hi wishes the 1938 team success. On September 30 the second mixer was held. It was sponsored by the Senior Class. The gym was decorated with pastel colored streamers. The homecoming dance, under the direction of the F club, was held after our game with Monroe. The gym was decorated in red and white, which was most appropriate. For the first time in our school's history we had a homecoming parade. Floats were entered by each of the classes, the F club, the journalism club, the Future Farmers Association, and the Girls' Athletic Association, The parade was led by the school band, through the Main street and back to school. After the parade the bonfire was held. A cheer, led by the cheer leaders, started the program. Bill Hedberg acted as masterfoffceremonies. As a special feature Gene Gorton, one of the oldest sport fans in the city, told of the experiences of the many previous high school teams. Willard Pitzner spoke a few words in reference to the sup' port which should be given by the cheering section. Mark Kerschensteiner, Bob Miller, Wendell Friedell, and Ed Miller promised to do their best to help win the homecoming game. Mr. Beach awarded prizes to the winning entries in the parade. The senior float received the award in the class floats and the Future Farmers Association received the award in the organization floats. The Thanksgiving dance was sponsored by the Pep club. The gym was decorated to represent the interior of a barn. Separate ears of corn with husky husks hung from the balcony and from each basket. Cornstalks and pumpkins occupied each corner of the gym. The floorfshow consisted of a saxophone solo by Willard Pitzner, and a tap dance to the tune of Alexander's Ragtime Band by Valerie Roessler and Helene Hodgdon. The P. T. A. mixer was held again this year. During intermission doughnuts, cool drinks, and coffee were served. The Christmas dance was held on December 23. In one corner of the gym was a lighted Christmas tree, and evergreens were hanging around the balcony. The Valentine dance was held February 17. As a special feature, a couple of jitterbugs from Milton jittered for us. A band benefit dance, sponsored by the band mothers, was held at the Municipal Building February 24. The proceeds of this dance went toward band uniforms. The Cotton Ball or PrefProm dance, sponsored by the band mothers, was held at the Municipal Building April 14. The auditorium was decorated with balls of cotton hanging around the side and in the center. The main feature of the evening was the crowning of the King and Queen. King John Fromader and Queen Sally Ann Linke, followed by the court of honor, led the way to the throne at the front of the auditcy rium. Last of all, Dickie Freudenberg, bearing the crowns, escorted Vanda May Linke who placed the crowns on the heads of the King and Queen. Page Fiftyfsix Fort Atkinson, Wis. April 22, 1939 Dear Jim, I wish you could have been at our Junior Prom last night-it was held in the Mu' nicipal Auditorium and was one of the biggest and best Proms ever held here. Ferdif nand the Bull reigned supreme under a false ceiling of many colors while the sweet swing music of Eddie Thiessen's tenfpiece orchestra made everybody want to dance. At 10 o'clock the big event of the evening took place. King John Fromader and his attractive queen, Sally Ann Linke, led the promenaders, including me and my girl, in the Grand March. Was it fun-we were right behind the Court of Honor which meant that we got a good look at them. I'm sure you know them all-Ruth Covey and Wcxidell Frieclel fKing and Queen of last yearj, Jean Hedberg and john Gates, Norma Jean Trieloif and Tom Tuttle, Florence Abernethy and Dick Mattoon, Mary Jane O'Brien and Mark Draves, and Jean Hagemann and David Theno. Our guests of honor were the proud parents land rightly sol of King John and Queen Sally Ann, Mr. and Mrs. Girth Linke and Mr. and Mrs. John Fromader, and members of the school board and their wives. We had the swellest selection of chaperf ones-none other than Mrs. Mildred Dexheimer, Dr. and lvlrs. O, J. Gates, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Krueger, and Mr, and Mrs. H. NNY Tuttle. Miss Leinfelcler dogged the committee plenty but I guess we appreciated the effect -at least we still think that our Prom was pretty swell. So sorry that you missed out on it. YOUR PAL, Page Fiftyfseven 8 Our cheerleaders' team this year consisted of Marion Habel and Elmer Oberleitner, seniors, and Kathleen Kelley, Helen Puerner, and Helene Hodgdon, juniors. Under the direction of Miss McKeand, the team helped bring about a spirit of good feeling and friendliness between our team and visiting teams. The cheerleaders costumes this season consisted of white skirts, red sweaters, red socks and white shoes. Elmer Oberleitner wore a white sweater and white flannel trouf sers fwhen he didn't forget to bring themj. The costumes were paid for by the newly' organized Redskins club. Perhaps we ean't say that the cheerleaders this year were the best ones Fort has ever had but at least, we can say that they did have the most startling Pep meetings ever held. Take, for instance, the time Elmer, in 'Lstanstudded shorts strolled across your vision, followed by Indians, oldffashioned girls, and other nightmares who brought your attention to the fact that cheering was needed to pep up the teams' spirit. Then, too, Warpy Fry's great speech on that eventful day surprised a few of you into opening your mouths and yelling for more. Marion Habel, as the mysterious Madame X, ffortune teller to youll told the basket' ball boys to watch out for all sharp corners and-well, you know! Then we must mention Helen Puerner as Maizie, the telephone operator, as she put across a startling rendition of how to chew gum and chatter between snaps, a feat not accomplished by many fin schoolj.

O Conference Gamesii Page Sixtyfone qaaidall In the Hrst game of the season, in which Fort played Prairie du Sac, the Cards came through with a 6fO victory over the light but experienced Prairie team. The Cards had a far greater superiority than the score indicates. Near the end of the half, Prechel, hardfhitting sophomore fullback, plunged the ball over from the threefyard line. Despite several chances to score in the second half, the Cards were held on even terms by some brilliant defense work by the Prairie line. On September 24, Fort suffered its first loss of the season to a strong Burlington team by a score of 20fO. Although slightly outweighed, Fort put up a better battle than the score indicates. Fort had many breaks but failed to take advantage of them. The playing of Bob Miller and Hakie May was outstanding for the Cards. Coming back with a bang after being beaten by Burlington, the Cards upset the dope by defeating Stoton by a score of 8fO in a hard fought, cleanly played game. Fort got a break in the first quarter, when Barker punted out of bounds on Stoton's 9-yard line. A bad pass from center caused Nyhagen, Stoton's punter, to fumble and the whole Card line was there to smother him for a safety. For the greater part of the sec' ond half, the game was a seefsaw battle, neither team gaining an inch. With less than four minutes to play, Barker threw a pass to Fromader, Cardinal end, who caught it in the end zone. , Fort journeyed to Edgerton with high hopes of defeating the utobacco boys . Edgerton proved to be too much for the home boys and the result was a 27fO defeat. During the second half, the line played ball the way they did against Stoton with the result that Edgerton scored only once. The Cards next went to Watertown to take on the Goslings. The final score was ?s3f7 in Watertown's favor. Even though Fort outgained Watertown in first downs 14f8, they could not seem to click when in playing territory. Prechel took the ball over from the threefyard line in the last quarter for the'lone touchdown. Fort missed the services of Bob Miller, who was out of the game due to a knee injury. The Monroe Cheesemakers journeyed to Fort for a game which was to be Fort's homecoming. To our dismay the score at the end of the game showed us to be on the short end of a 7fO score. It was a hard game for the Cards to lose, because they by far outplayed Monroe and deserved to win. Fort made 14 first downs to Monroe's 5, but could not make them count when they got near the pay dirt. In the last game of the season, the Cards were defeated by a score of 34fO. Even though this indicates a one-sided game, it was not the kind of a game Fort played. In the first quarter Fort fumbled three times in succession, Wisconsin high took advantage of their breaks by shoving over two quick touchdowns in the first quarter and one in the second. In the third quarter, they continued their drives completing two more touchdowns. Although this season was the poorest of many a season we can say that there has never been a harder fighting team representing the red and white of Fort. The boys def serve a lot of credit. To those who are graduating we say good luck, and to those who are coming back we say-make up for it next year. Page Sixtyftwo -4944-fr' 7 ': ,LLJQJ ' -21,5 ,au-6,4-oz?

An approved Fort cage team made an 'kaboutffaceu to defeat the Lake Mills Five 1'7f1 1. Krueger led Fort's scoring with ive points. I Displaying a complete revisal of form, a vastly improved Fort cage team decisively whipped a Burlington five to the tune of 30 to 18. Captain Harry May of Fort was the outstanding player on the floor. Our Fort cagers traveled to Madison Saturday night to defeat the Madison B's 22 to 12. Fromader and May led the attack for the Cardinals, the former made 11 points. Johnny made 10 of 13 free-throws for the season record, An improved Burlington team handed Fort a defeat at Burlington to the tune of 24 to 19. A The Fort Atkinson cagers successfully opened their conference season, in defense of their Southern Six championship, by beating a fighting Wisconsin High Five 18 to 12. May and Fromader stood out for Fort, Anderson looked best for the losers, A sharp shooting Edgerton basketball team defeated Fort Atkinson 27f21 on their own floor. A fast stepping Monroe high school quintet, scoring practically as they pleased, handed our Cardinals a stunning 29 to 23 setback. Bob Krueger and Ralph Kressin led the Cardinal attack. A slow starting Cardinal five was decisively defeated by a powerful Stoughton quintet despite a hnal period rally. Fort suffered a great loss when Harry May was removed from the game. A scrappy Fort group gave a highly favored Watertown team the biggest scare they ever had when they battled them on even terms for three quarters but bogged down in the hnal period to lose 24 to 29. This was Ralph Kressin's last game in a Cardinal suit and we want to wish all the luck in the world to a swell ball player. Playing their best game of the season, the Fort cagers took charge in the Madison Held house and defeated a scrappy Wisconsin High Five 26 to 18. A fighting Cardinal dropped a heartbreaker to a smooth Edgerton quintet to the score of 23 to 20. The work of Abernethy and Hansen was extremely heartening though the whole team must be given credit. A crippled Monroe team took advantage of the breaks, and 'caught our Cardinals on an offfnight, so found it easy to defeat them 26 to 16, The game was unusually rough and 29 fouls were called. A brilliant Stoughton quintet, led by the conference scoring champion, Bob Ny' hagen, swept an inexperienced Fort Five off their feet with the score of 44 to 27. A powerful Watertown cage team took advantage of a weakened Cardinal Five and handed them a 29 to 12 beating in the Watertown High School gym. Our Fort cagers traveled to Watertown and defeated Jefferson to the score of 30 to 16. This victory entitled us to enter the final championship round of the class B district tournament. Fort's superiority was apparent at all times. May and Conroy led Fort with 7 points each. Three times this year Watertowii has nosed out our Cards, the last time was at the class B district tournament in the Watertown high school. Fort rallied in the final stanza but couldn't overtake the fastfstepping Watertown quintet, and were defeated 26 t0 29. Fort's basketball season has come to an end and with only two boys graduating we expect big things of the boys next year. Page Sixtyffour l HOUSE OF DAVID'S I THE PACKERS 9 I9 The Hrst full year intramural program was started in 1937 under the direction of Coach Freudenberg. The plan immediately met with great success. However this year's program was bigger and better due to more participation and better balanced teams. The first sport in which the gym periods competed against each other in a round robin tournament was football. The championship teams of each period played each other to decide the school championship. It went to Russ Berkley's team of the second hour class. Bob Daly's sixth hour was second. Following football came basketball intramurals. Two leagues were formed, one for the farm boys and one for the city boys. The farm boys formed a Noon League which consisted of four teams. After a hardffought battle the Packers were declared the champs. The city boys, forming six teams, comprised the Wednesday Nite League. The House of David team showed its worth by capturing the championship in the league. Russ Berkley, with 189 points, was highest scorer but was closely followed by Bob Nelson with 116 points. There has been a decided interest in this tournament and a bigger turnout is expected next year. Spring sports followed basketball with good prospects for all of them. Volleyball was started for the farm boys at noon four days a week. They also attempted kittenball at Jones Park when weather permitted. Other spring sports are intramural boxing, tennis, golf, and track. All the credit goes to Coach Frcudenberg for starting such a program. Next year should be an even bigger and better year. Page Sixty-Eve Coach Freudenberg issued forty suits for a two week spring football session. Based around eight letter men from last year's team, the Cardinal squad showed considerable improvement over last year's team. As most of the backfielders were left from last year it was not difhcult to pick ball-carriers for the season. The line, however, is lacking in weight and experience so it needs considerable repairing. Those letter men who will be the nucleus for Coach.Freudenberg's eleven are: Backs: Ray Prechel, Dick Mattoon, Bud Abernethy, and Bob Krueger. Line: Don Fry, John Fromader, Walter Pagels, and ? 7 ? ? Qtry to End out from Coachj. The spring practice was based merely on fundamentals such as the learning a new shift and new formation. Much blocking and tackling was also done. As we look at the squad as a whole, we can almost see the Southern Six Cham' pionship return to Fort next year. D Track About thirty boys responded to the call for the 1939 track team. Of these thirty members, only three are veterans of last year's team. These are: Captain John Frof mader, 440 dashg Don Fry, high jumpg and LaVerne Tiffany in the mile. The schedule this year includes matches with Oconomowoc, Whitewater City High, Wisconsin High, and a triangular meet with Prairie Du Sac and Madison Cenf tral B's. A triangular meet will be held at Whitewater when Fort will compete with Whitewater College High and Brodhead. The first meet is at Cconomowoc, April 28. '7enm2L An elimination tournament was conducted under the supervision of the tennis coach, Mr. Bienfang. At the completion of the tournament, Robert Heide, Mark Kerschensteiner, Robert Hausen, Rodney Green, and Bill Carlisle were selected to rep' resent the 1939 tennis team, Only one match has been played, which Fort won over Cconomowoc by a score of '7fO. The schedule for the season includes matches with Oconomowoc, Whitewziter City High, Edgerton, Whitewzatter College High, Delavan, and Lake Geneva. Plans have been made to send a few members to the Southern Six Tournament at Madisoim and also to the State Tournament at Neenah. ' The l938 tennis team played a series of matches with surrounding cities. Each member won all his matches with the result that the team completed the season un' beaten, untied, and unscored upon. It also has been undefeated for two years, and has the record of winning fortyfnine consecutive individual matches. Page Sixtyesix if? ',f , aryl!

Page Seventyfeight Hats Off To You Throughout the school year students are continually told by teachers how lazy, unruly, and stupid they are. Of course, most pedagogues think scolding is their pref rogative, so perhaps that's the reason we do it. We really do like you though, under' neath it all, and here's an opportunity to tell you why. Anyone who is at all truthful with himself knows the advantages of honesty, in spite of derogatory remarks made against it recently. All high school students I've known have been honest with themselves. The fact that one is able to recognize one's own faults is a step toward character development. And you people have been able to do that very thing, even though reluctantly at first. In the dim, dark past when I attended high school, I can't recall ever having been interested in national and international affairs. Oh, I heard that one president did not choose to run , but I never cared very much about discovering his reason for being thus willed. I heard of gang wars in Chicago, but Chicago was a hundred miles away so 1 didn't think very much about troubles there. There were rumors about a Teapot Oil Dome swindle, but who cared about anything with such a silly name? And I wasn't the only indifferent young person. We all had more important things to think about! Contrast this desultory frame of mind with the rabid curiosity with which young people nowadays read their magazines and newspapers. Even students a teacher might call below-average have very definite opinions on war, labor difficulties, and racial persecutions. They detest hypocrisy, greed, and selfishness and -ian give sound reasons for this hatred. Each and every young American cherishes now, more than ever, the liberty we enjoy on this side of the Atlantic. I shall neverhforget the thrill of satisfaction I received in one of my classes the day before Thanksgiving vacation when I asked the class what each one had to be thankful for. Une girl said, very simply, and without alfectation, 'Tm glad I'm an American. That's what I like about you folks. You're straight'fromfthefshoulder and that's the kind the world needs. You don't judge happiness in terms of dollars and cents- you think more deeply than that. Even your views on religion which have startled and shocked older people are, on the whole, I believe, basically sound. Your religion goes deeper than just being pious on Sundays. You realize you must follow the Golden Rule every day to be a real Christian. In conclusion, let me say that if you people continue to keep your feet firmly fixed on the ground, and let your heads remain in the clouds, you're going to leave to the generations which follow a much better world than we've ever had. More power to you! LUCILLE MCKEAND Page Seventyfnine L 1. H.M. 'm . J. C. 3. R. R. 4. L. K. 5. H.G. 6, W. F. 7. R. C. 8. G. C. 9. M. H. lo. L.S. 11. L, M. 12. S. M. 13. A. R. 14. R. D. 15. H. M.

Page Eightyfnine Page Ninety Freshman Poem We're the freshman class of '39 137 of us feeling fine. 67 boys and 70 girls. Few bow-legs and plenty of curls. We like our teachers, yes we do, They work each day to teach something new, We think Miss Frohmader is just grand. Miss Jenks will always lend a hand. Our principal, who is Mr. Leak, Is a friend to all, so to speak. Miss Frey is a regular ujackfoffall trades , She teaches English, citizenship, and gym to the maids Our clubs which met on Wednesday night Taught actors to act and journalists to write, The cooking boys learned to make a meal, To fry the meat and the potatoes to peal. In dramatic club the boys are few, Especially when there's work to do. Our Washington play, A Man's Wife , Portrayed our hero in time of strife. We envy Joyce johnson for her hair. Jean Hedberg has the complexion fair. janet Alley has those soleful eyes. Barbara Simdon gives those frank replies. Jim Hadden is our star athlete, But Bill Carlisle is hard to beat. Edward May is good at books, And Richard Donkle has the looks . Our party was a scavenger hunt, Which required pep and many a stunt. We will have our picnic fun in Juneg The day cannot arrive too soon. Farewell to our Emery Junior High. Dear, oh, dear, how time does fly. We thought we were quite smart before, But now we needs must learn much more. JOANN BENNETT, '42. FRESHMAN We started out as Freshmen wild Each regarded as a child A. M.
