Now those days are only memories which will be brought back to mind many times by this “book of memories’’. tVe hope that you like it! Co-Editors-in-Chief, Charlyne Quammen and Muriel Hoiness; Business Manager, Roger Newell; Advertising Manager, Lyle Tollefson: Adviser, Supt. Roy A. Norsted. DedCcati M, tr In the Spirit of Young America and the Four Freedoms, we dedicate THE CARDINAL OF 1944 to the 122 fighting alumni who are serving their country in all parts of the world under all conditions of warfare. They fight for America because they have faith in her institutions, her mode of life,,and their loved ones hei'e at home. From their faith in America, we pattern the theme of our yearbook— On Wings of Faith based on the Four Freedoms so excellently portrayed by Norman Rockwell in the accompanying reproduction. More especially do we dedicate The Cardinal of 1944 to a c James IValls and Captain Aubrey Serf ling who gave their lives this year in the service of their country. A C JAMES O.

Never a more genial and friendly group of grade teachers ever assembled to do a good job of teaching than these three. They always agreed upon a course of action and then carried it through to a successful conclusion. They did a grand job with the Christmas operetta and lent a helping hand with many of the younger students in the speech contest. Thanks a lot! PRIVATE BERTIL M.

To do a job to the very best of your ability was a habit with you; we know that you will give a good account.of yourself wherever Uncle Sam sends you. Lots of luck to you!

To be an alumnus of Harmony high school is in itself an honor and a responsibility and we hope that no one will bring dishonor to our Alma Mater as we leave her walls of learning to find our niches in the world of affairs. To many of us, we will soon be in the service of our country to carry her banners high and bring them back victoriously to a better world in which to live and let live. VVe aim to take our part and do our very best wherever and whenever called upon. “On Wings of Faith” is the theme of our annual this year. Mid the turmoil of an uprooted world, it is more necessary than ever that we carry on “On Wings of Faith” lest we lose sight of the glow of a new’ day. “It is always darkest before dawn” may be the case now' as we step out into the world, but surely if we have faith in our country, our neighbors, and ourselves a new' day will dawrn, brighter and more beautiful than any that we have ever experienced. We must be ready to make the necessary sacrifice to bring about that new day by bending every effort to win the war and win the peace that is to follow'. Perhaps faith is the best asset that we can now’ cherish and hold dear unto ourselves until this world rights itself on its axis. As we look back, it is only four short years since we began our high school careers together. Four years ago, it seemed like four long years out into the future. Time passes quickly when we are busy and 1. IT COULDN'T BE ALGEBRA—COULD IT? 2. CONNIE PICKS A HOT TUNE 3. A FEMALE GENE KRUPPA 4 SUPERMOUSE BOELTER IS IN THE NAVY NOW 5.

Quammcn. busy we have been during our high school careers. We have maintained a high scholastic standard from the first time we entered high school up until we finished the course. But our education has not been without its bright moments of many fine associations through the activities in which we engaged. We have come to know each other better because we learned to work and play together; now we must part, each to go his or her own way in life. Perchance we shall meet again upon the cross-roads of life. This past year has been a particularly enjoyable one. Perhaps one of our most interesting experiences was the presentation of our 6 THERE'S MUSIC IN THE AIR 7. THE GIRL WITH THE SWEET SINGING SAX. 8 ART—THE SOUL OF THE MIND 9 IS THAT STATIC WE HEAR? 10 A SCOTCH LASSIE AT THE KEYBOARD a Seniors senior play, “John Doe, American”. It had a special appeal to everyone of us because it touched a patriotic chord that made our heartstrings tingle. It proved to be an outstanding success from the standpoint of both attendance and performance. In speech, Charlyne Quammen carried off the honors in the regional speech contest at Pine Island bv receiving a rating of superior in manuscript reading. We shall long remember our many music activities, our band rehearsals, band concerts, instrumental recitals, and the various occasions when we were called upon to participate in school programs. The operetta, ‘‘An Old Kentucky Garden,” was another experience that will live long in our memories; the melodies of Stephen Foster mean more to us because of it. Then too, there was that delightful operetta, “Chonita,” in which we took part during our junior year; the sprightly music of Franz Liszt will always bring back memories of that experience. If music is the language of the heart and soul, we will have many deep rooted memories to hind us to the four years of close association as students together in Harmony high school. We have not been without thrills galore in football and basketball. It has been a lot of fun to cheer from the sidelines and bleachers with a winning team to carry our honors high. The Seniors played their part w’ell in both football and basketball, several of whom played on two championship teams in basketball. At the close of the first semester, President Roosevelt sent a personal greeting to Donovan Boelter telling him that without his services this war could not be won and so Don became the first in our class to answer the call to colors. Due to the training he received in his high school radio class, Don was able to pass his radio code test in the navy 1 KEEP 'EM ROLLING 2. EFFICIENCY IN THE LIBRARY. 3.

During the winter, the class presented a beautiful service flag to the school which now has 122 stars, three of which are gold. Now, as we have come to the close of our high school days, we look back upon them as the best that we have lived. To and from school, in and out of class, we have built up many friendships which can never be broken even though we part our ways at this time to take up the serious job of winning the war and building a career for ourselves in the not too distant future. To our classmates, we say lots of luck; to our teachers and those who have helped us along the way. thanks for everything. 6. . LARGO ON THE CONSOLE 7.

When autumn came in 1943, an extra special thrill raced up and down our spines as we suddenly realized that we were Juniors. To all of us, it has meant more interesting class work, as well as parties, dancing, singing, cheering and all the activities that make for an abundant school life,—and we have made the most of them. As a class, we have worked well together. True, we have made mistakes, hut we have always tried to correct them, and gone on to do bigger and better things. There was a unity of purpose and general understanding as we discussed parties, our class play, the year’s big social event—the prom. From a rich source of originality, we produced effects that were new and striking to the eye. We have tried to add zip and zest to our school life and we have enjoyed doing it. From the other side of school life, we have maintained a high scholastic standing, participated in dramatics, speech, band, vocal music, as well as made a substantial contribution to our high school’s success in sports. In our effort to help win the war, we have cooperated in every under-taking. Yes, we know what it is to have one of our classmates depart for the service of Uncle Sam. Rufus Alexander, who was always an enthusiastic and peppy member of our class, joined the fighting marines during the Christmas holidays and then came back and finished out the semester before entering active service. We, too, are anxious to get out and do our part in a more active and effective manner. Yes, we want to have a part in shaping the new order of things to come—we want to protect our future in this land of opportunity.

It seems but a few months ago that we started off together as Freshmen and now our high school careers are half over and we stand on the threshold of becoming Juniors. During the Freshman year, we were forty-four and now we number forty-one. Each year, our high school classes become a little smaller. As we leave high school this year, we resolve to meet again within the walls of our high school as Juniors and to carry on together through two more years of pleasant associations. The past year has been the best year of our high school careers. Our classes have all been unusually interesting and there have been so many worthwhile extracurricular activities in which we have had the opportunity to take part. Remember those fine lyceum programs, plays, band concerts, instrumental recital, operetta, pep meetings, football and basketball games, the district tournament, club meetings, parties, and all of those little informal gabfests after school? Do you remember, too, playing ping-pong and shuffle board, dashing off to the drug store after lunch to get that ice cream cone, sunning yourself on the high school steps, as well as all of those other activities that make up our high school life? Next year should be an even greater and more interesting year, for we will be Juniors with the responsibility of putting on the junior class play, the prom, another operetta . . . What a year ahead for us! As Sophomores, we started a new tradition in high school by assuming all responsibilities for the football homecoming festivities. The homecoming this last year was handled so well that our superintendent has suggested that this activity become a traditional Soph-.omore activitiy. When it came to helping out with the school annual, our class topped them all, save the Seniors, in the way of financial assistance. Yes, this has been a great year for us and we look forward to a bigger and better year in 1944-45.

Webster tells us that the word comes from the Greek words sophos meaning wise and tnoros meaning fool—wise fool. What a heritage! Oh, well, since Sophomores rc necessary in the course of things, we’ll make the most of it. Just watch our dust next year! As Freshmen, we have had our full share of fun along with our studies. It has been a lot of fun to work together and play together. To many of us as rural students, it has been a new Experience to attend a large high school and move about from room to room for our classes, to keep our books in lockers, to attend the many activities sponsored by the older students, to ride school buses, to take part in intramural sports, and to have our own parties. Our first social activity took the form of a Hallowe’en party to which the Sophomores were invited. It was really a wonderful get-together for all the members of our class. During the year, a number of the more talented Freshmen had occasion to take part in the one-act plays, speech, and the operetta. These were new experiences for many. With English, algebra, science, agriculture, industrial arts, home economics, and business relations to keep us hard at work, we really needed the extra-curricular activities for relaxation. It has been a great year for all of us and we look ahead with pleasant anticipations of another interesting year together.

Under the direction of Miss Rose Hahn and an enthusiastic group of high school students, the CARDEON has made a very fine contribution to the life of the high school and provided an excellent opportunity to apply our literary abilities. To represent the school in everything that it is and should be has been our aim. We look forward to another year with keen anticipation of doing an even better job of news reporting, editorial writing, and providing an added punch through illustrations and feature articles. • 29 • FIRST EDITION READERS Future Farmers Lett to Right, First Row: V.

LONG AND SHORT OF MUSIC If music hath charm, then our high school has a great deal of charm for music is an integral part of our extra-curricular activities. With Miss Edna Lee as our vocal director, we have enjoyed a year full of music. The Girls’ Glee Club, Junior Chorus, and Girls’ Sextette have been wonderful outlets for those who have been interested in singing and the art of the Muses. On April 28th, the vocal groups gave the delightful operetta, “An Old Kentucky Garden,” based on the music of Stephen Foster. • 32 • PETER HUTTON TURNS SOLOIST AND SINGS OH' SUSANNA 4k Otct 'KeKtucfaf tyznde t 2 Act Operetta The operetta, “An Old Kentucky Garden,” was a most beautiful production that will live long in the memories of all who took part.

Gunberg, served as an incentive for what proved to be one of our most successful years in band work. During the year, we have had three weekly rehearsals, played several evening concerts, and taken part in an instrumental recital. Our audiences have been most appreciative and encouraging. The pep band, with its twenty-five members, played at all of the basketball games and was the official band at the district basketball tournament this year. It was all a lot of fun, long to be remembered by all of us. Mr. Gunberg has been a friend, as well as a good instructor, through whose timely suggestions we have attained great heights in instrumental music. It has been a pleasant experience to have been a member of our high school band and pep band these past years. To our Band Mothers who so willingly helped raise funds for the band by serving lunch at the district basketball tournament and for their cooperation and diligent work all through the year, we express our sincere appreciation.

The role of John Doe was taken by Roger Newell, who did a very fine piece of interpretation. Miss Edna Lee directed the production. HERE'S MY STORY, MYRNA DOTTY AND DAFFY FIGHT ,T OUT Dotty and Daffy Junior Class Play After several postponements due to illness of various members of the cast, the junior class farce-comedy, “Dotty and Daffy,” became history as of March 29th. Under the able direction of our principal, Leonhard Baak, we really enjoyed the four weeks of rehearsals and nothing gave us more sheer enjoyment than the realization that the audience was in a good receptive mood for the final presentation. The audience was literally kept “in stitches” from the start of the play until the final curtain. The many complicating situations that became even more complicating as the play progressed left nothing lacking in the way of comedy. It was difficult for us to hold our own at times because of the audience’s responsiveness. Following the play, the cast enjoyed a tasty lunch in the home economics department given by the parents of the cast. Needless to say, we will look back upon our Junior class play as one of the extra-ordinary events of our high school career.

Surging back from a wave of early season injuries and three crushing defeats, the 1943 Cardinal football team broke their jinx to win the three remaining games on their schedule and thus clinch second place in the conference for the second straight year. Starting the season with green material except for three returning lettermen, Coaches Roy W. Moren and Edward J. Stephon shaped the Cards into a team that had to be reckoned with in the latter half of the season. In spite of early season defeats, one of the largest football squads in local history remained faithful to their daily practices with the result that a fairly seasoned squad will be ready to take over in the fall. However, Mannie Bates, plunging fullback j Bob Todd, stellar end; Don Boelter, diminutive quarterback; and Dick Elliott, flashy half will be missed when the 1944 season rolls around. Our only wish is that our coaching staff will be kept intact for the returning lettermen. We know that they will have a good season if wishes come true. Lots of luck!

The outlook was none too bright when the first practice session was called November 8th. With four of the first five from the district champs of last year missing, Coach Roy W. Moren took on a big assignment in building up another championship team in both the “A” and “B divisions. It was a hectic season from the standpoint of illness which first hit the team on December 10th and continued on through the district tournament. However, it did give the reserves more of a chance to play, and develop themselves for next season. Lacking size, the boys made up for this deficiency by adding speed and more speed to overcome their bigger opponents. With a willingness to learn and a determination to win, the hoys gave an unusually fine account of themselves by winning 17 games in 21 starts, and bringing home to the trophy case two more beautiful trophies. There were a number of unusual thrillers during the year. Spotting Preston 9 points on their own floor before getting a single point to their own credit, the Cards came back in their opening conference game to hold the Blue Jays scoreless for better than two quarters while running up 21 points for themselves. The game ended 33 to 22 with every player taking part. In another thriller, Harmony was on the very short end of a 11 to 1 account with Mabel when the first quarter ended and then hit their stride behind the accurate shooting of Dick Elliott and Donnie Johnson to end the half on the short end of a 12 to 11 count, after allowing the Wildcats only one point in the second quarter. From there on. the Cards took the measure of Mabel quite handily 31 to 24. In another thrilling home contest, Harmony was trailing Rushford 23 to 16 with one minute and 47 seconds to go when the Cards found themselves behind the uncanny shooting of Dick Elliott and Lyle Tollefson and pushed in eight points to the Trojan’s two, ending the game two points short of victory—24 to 25. This photo-finish was perhaps the most thrilling finish to a game that Harmony played all year even though we failed to win. The season as a whole was quite possessed with upsets and near upsets which made it a hard season on the players, but a great season for the spectators. Our attendance this past year was the best in local basketball history in spite of the fact that a good share of our former fans were in the service of Uncle Sam. There was more evidence of older people in attendance this year than in former years, but they showed every sign of being just as rabid in their cheering as the younger fans. From the standpoint of attendance and general management, the district tournament which was held here this year was “top”. 'There was unusually fine sportsmanship shown throughout the tournament and every game was of high spectator quality. The final night, doors were opened at 6 o’clock, with the crowd starting to line up outside the gym at 5:20. Because of the over-flow crowd, it was necessary for the doors to be locked at 7 :20, full 40 minutes before the games got under way. In the finals, Mabel exhibited a very fine brand of basketball to defeat the Cards by a score of 33 to 22. Although the Cards had played excellent ball all along the way, it was quite clear that Mabel was in top condition and the class of the tournament with plenty of height to augment their fine ball handling. Suffering somewhat from the lack of material, the Cards came through the season with flying colors and can now look forward to next season with some very fine reserve material from which to build another championship team. Not only will the Cards have speed, but there will be plenty of height to help make their chances of another good season bright. When you consider that the reserves went through a 14-game schedule without a single defeat, it doesn’t augur any good news for the opposition next season. During the two years that Coach Moren has been with us, we have learned a lot of fundamental basketball and what it takes to maintain a championship pace. We know too, that championship teams just don’t happen and that bad breaks can hit the best of teams during the season. Above everything else, we have learned that we have to he in the pink of condition, physically and mentally, to be able to take advantage of every situation. However, whether we win or lose, good sportsmanship pays. To a great coach and friend, we say thanks for what you have taught us and for the personal interest you have taken in everyone of us! We hope that you will be back with us again next year! • 46 • CHECKING ELIGIBILITIES BULLETIN BOARD ITEMS STORAGE FOR THE SUMMER LET GO OR I'LL JUMP OVER YOU. WHAT'S THE MATTER COACH?
