CLASS HISTORY Remember that eventful day almost four years ago when you first entered the portal of the H.H.S., as a freshman. Your ego was so inflated with your own im- portance, but it soon fell, crashl, when the seniors started to show you exactly what a Freshie meant. Maybe you carried books, opened doors, played in the sand, building sand houses, danced when you didn't know how, or took a walk up to the court house, but you were soon initiated into the ways of the school by its seniors. There was our first class meeting and blushing Bill Thomas was elected President. A few of our brave lads tried out for football and it was reported that Red T. and Tony V. showed promise of developing into real players. Our Frosh basketball team really held up our class honor by not losing a single game during the season. Re- member the style show held by the seniors at which Jack Meade, Dick Dahl, and Jim Bertagnoli made such running models of the latest female apparel. Finally came May and we took one step up the ladder and entered our sophomore year. That year there were some new teachers and how all the girls did flock to band, until they learned our new director, Mr. Douville, was married. Miss Weiser's English classes put on a skit for Halloween and from then on our motto was Oh what a dense forest of trees, and trees and trees. The first Homecoming of many a year was put on by the pep club, and remember how everyone almost was tramp- led during the Snake Dance ? This was Hurley's glorious year in basketball. The Regional -- Sectional -- and then the State tournaments. The band was even sent to Madison after our lron Men toppled mighty Wauwautosa from their throne. After another exciting game, for the first time in our history, we were State Champs. We'll never forget the celebration honoring the team -- Mr. Murphy announcing there would be no school -- and Pupsie's oratorical abilities during the pep sessions and other presentations. The B team was not to be outdone however and had a record of no losses. Somehow or other we even got around to having a class party. The band and choir presented a concert, and right in the middle a catastrophe took place, the lights went out while the band was playing a piece. What sweet music! Much too soon the year was again over. As Juniors, we finally began to grow up a little, and thrilled with the exhiliara- tion of being upper class men the boys began hounding the poor freshmen. Our football team took the lime-light that year, beating Superior, Ironwood, and tying Duluth, and Red making the State Honor Roll. Before we knew it the Prom was up- on us. We decided on a Dutch scene but whatever did happen to the idea of hav- ing a snow storm scene? Just think of all those nights spent in decorating the gym with crepe paper, windmills, flowers, and other Dutch scenery- ln a short time came forensics, with Dave, Marlene and Gloria going to Madison. Then came the day for which we had all hoped, yearned, and prayed -- we were actually seniors. The boys began to realize girls were human and some of our bachelors came out of hibernation. Remember the class play with all its trials and tribulwtions? Being postponed because of snow-storm, put on the following day, with everyone rushing around trying to locate a substitute for a costume which had been left at home. Then came calling cards - The Christmas Ball -- The Log - and as if this wasn't enough, physics. Will you ever forget the pep session for the Ironwood game? Mr. Sybeldon as M. C., promising to play the Tennessee Waltz on his harmonica over WJMS at ll:30, Miss Hambley playing Chopsticks , Chief and his sax solos, the orchestra made up teachers, Coach Vergamini making the girls swoon with his crooning, and last but not least, Mr. Pepper Connors leading a cheer. Soon after followed the tournaments -- Hurley-Ashland-Spooner. Losing to Rib Lake by only 2 points. Now after some hectic months of speech, a music festival, banquets, parties, and work, Commencement is actually here. 5
