PACK SIXTEEN Srmior Class History For four short years we have been sailing the seas of knowledge, and finally as Seniors we have come to port. On that September day so long ago we set sail as tlie green Freshmen. Helen Puerner was onr Captain on the first lap of the journey. With a crew of forty-eight we managed to have many good times. Paul Heileman, Paul Noble, and Hobert Haithel represented us in football. Many girls and boys entered file declamatory and oratory contests. Helen Puerner received first place, and Faith Hamann copped second. Hugo Heck look first and John Knutson second among the boys. Many of our crew tried their skill in truck and band. In basketball we came out at the bottom. The second year of our journey we were known as Sophomores. Paul Noble now had the controls in bis hands. A few more boys entered the sports held on deck. Paul Heileman was the only one with sufficient skill to make the first football team. In basketball we fared much better than the previous year. We closed the basketball season by winning the class tournament. Declamatory and oratory were again represented. and Hugo Beck and John Knutson tried their hand at debate. As Juniors we started on the third lap of our journey. Haithel had joined Heileman on the first team in football. Schuett and Tiger” were on the first basketball team. In class basketball we again won the honors of first place. On April 12 the Prom was held on deck. It turned out to be a glorious evening. Irene Landgraf and Halph Schuett, as queen and chairman, led the grand march. Under the careful guidance of Hugo Beck our gallant crew finished the third year of journeying. As Seniors we now shall come to anchor. Our crew will he dispersed. perhaps never to meet again. Some will continue their travels through the seas of Lesson and Learning, and others will he content to remain and seek their living here. During our last year we have had many enjoyable times. Football again saw our class well represented. Tiger,” John Knutson, John Fuerbringer. Orrie Sehiesl, and Paul Heileman were our stars. The call to basketball was answered by Harold Rieck. Tiger,” Orrie, and Schuett. In class basketball we again took first place. Just a few weeks now remain, and they undoubtedly will he filled to overflowing. Graduation is both joyous and sad. We love to think of our sailing alone in the world, and yet we hate to leave the scenes so familiar and dear to us. Minna Gruennert,
