In the fall of 191 5 we entered the Luther L. Wright High School as the first peacetime freshman class. Under the direction of Miss Janet Reid we elected the following officers: Lauri Maki, president; Charlotte Surprenant, vice-president; Norma Johnson, secretary; and Marjorie Courtney, treasurer. Toward the end of our freshman year the District Basketball Tournament was held in Ironwood. Throughout the year many of the freshman boys were active in sports and challenged other range Junior higi teams. The next year we returned, not as bewildered and green freshmen, but as grown-up sophomores. With the assistance of Miss Ruth Birge we elected the following class officers: Faye Lake, president; John Gregory, vice-president; John Stanczak, treasurer; and Nancy Carlson, secretary. Erwin Erickson and William Peterson had the honor of being the only sophomore boys to receive letters in football. Erwin also became a member of the National Athletic Honor Society. As Jolly Juniors we chose the following students to lead our class: Ronald Surprenant, president; Andrew Rajkovich, vice-president; Carol Anderson, secretary; Shirley Lassila, treasurer. The Junior students elected to the National Honor Society were Carol Anderson, Rita Lesco, and Ruth Johnson. It was during our Junior year that the school sponsored a magazine subscription drive, proceeds from which were used to purchase a Magnavox. This radio-phonograph has been used to furnish music for many school dances and other events. The physical education classes have also made regular use of the instrument. On May U , 19l 8, under the able direction of Miss Janet Goudie, in a colorful Southern setting, our class acted as hosts to the Senior Class and friends at our Junior Prom. Ronald Surprenant and Faye Lake reigned over the affair, which was a great success. In August, 191 8, we, the dignified seniors of today, entered the school with hopeful anticipation that we would soon achieve our goal— graduation. We elected the following as our class officers: Robert Carlson, president; Dennis Plohocky, vice-president; Frank Milakovich, secretary; Mary Ann Otto, treasurer. Under the supervision of Miss Jennie Johnson, our class sponsor, the seniors on the Annual staff turned out this 191 9 Hematite. At this writing the following events lie in the future. On May 11, under the direction of Miss Rosa Pape, the senior class will present the class play, We Shook the Family Tree. An occasion involving much suspense will be the day on which the National Honor Society members are announced. We shall don our caps and gowns for the first time on Sunday, May 29 when Baccalaureate services are held. On Thursday of the same week we shall be much less formal at the annual class picnic at Lake Gogebic. And finally on Friday evening, June 3� Commencement, when with mingled feelings we receive our diplomas and rise and sing Auld Lang Syne.

R0TC 10, 11, 12 Senior Clad3 Prophecy, It is now 1959, and we're off on a tour of the world in helicopters donated by Clayton Aij ala's factory. Starting at New York we look in on Madison Square Garden, where Dale Allen, unicycle artist, is balancing his wife and partner, the former Jeanette Soltis, on his nose, while holding between his teeth a $10,000 watch, bought from Tiffany's Jewelry Store, now operated by Waino Aukee. At Carnegie Hall an appreciative audience is listening raptly to arias from Carmen, sung by Rita Lesco, piano concertos played by Lin-nea Wlitalo, and baritone solos by Andrew Rajkovich. Ronald Surprenant is on hand to take pictures of the stars for all the leading newspapers, including the Ironwood Daily Globe, edited by Fred Tezak and Margie Courtney, The concert notes are written by Carol Penber-thy. From New York we hop over to Chicago, where at the First Baptist Church we hear an inspiring message by Rev, J, Bloomquist. In the evening we attend a talent hunt show, at which Bob Carlson, the master of ceremonies, is entertaining a large audience with witty remarks and such. Miss Gloria Erickson, protege of the noted dnuaner Gene Kruppa, wins the first prize. John Liljestrom is also discovered and is given a job with the Harmoni-cats. Gerald Stutz, by the way, got his start here as a radio comedian. He really rolls them in the aislesJ Next we stop in Detroit and make a tour of the General Motors Plant, where Arvo Ova- ska has just designed a new type of jet-propelled car. If we’re nice he might give us a ride—hold on to your hatsl We have inside information that Ruth Johnson, noted women's fashion designer, is designing a riding habit for use in Arvo's jet auto. We stop at a large department store and find Arlene Maki modeling the new French fashions. On a news stand nearby we see the latest issue of the Women's Home Companion, with an editorial by Norma Johnson, in which she tells of the extraordinary occurrence of a second Rip Van Winkle—Don Pawlicki slept ten yearsl Yes, graduating was too much for him—he had to rest up. Now we reach the metropolis of Ironwood, Michigan, and stop for refreshments at the Rundell and Skoviera Pasty Shop. After eating heartily, we stroll to the Luther L. Wright High School, where we find the Rifle Team, instructed by Martin Johnson, practicing. In the library we find our friend, Margaret Peterson, as head librarian. Other new faculty members are: Sylvia Palomaki-commercial, George Nicholas-physics, Marilyn Holst-physical education, Margaret Barnes-history, and John Gregory-physical education for boys. There's a new dean in G. J. C., none other than Ray Chadwick. While in Ironwood we stay at the St. James Hotel, ably managed by Jack Grigg. When the bell boy brings us the evening paper, we see headlines aoout a heated debate in the Senate. Faye Lake and Norman Koski are upholding their oratorical prestige against two newcomers, Dennis Plohocky and Russell Geen. The vice-president, Robert Antonino, had a hard time keeping order. On the sport page we see that in the Olympics the ski-jumping title was given to Ronald Harvat, and the women's skiing title to Rita Carli. The Green Bay Packers have some new talent coming up, Erve Erickson and Ben Cvengros. The pole-vaulting champ of '59 has been announced—Lauri Sobolewskii As we lie down to a good night's sleep, we turn on the radio for some news broadcast by our favorite, Tom Sommers, who reports a new hairdo for long hair—the men's favorite, styled by Jennie Perhalla. Did we mention we saw a Western at Johnnie Kolodziey's Rex Theater? Well, we did. The next morning, after buying toy balloons from Betty Dedo at Kresge's, we hop over to Sun Valley and attempt to learn to ski under the able instruction of Raj’ Nydahl. Then we fly to Hollywood where we attend the opening of a Shakesperian drama starring Bob Tre-zise. The women in our group go to Franc and Josef's Salon to be beautified. To our surprise Betty Lou Armata has charge of the transformation process,while Nancie Hannu applies her new brand of cosmetics. We find that Joan Johnson and Bette Hautanen have started a movie company and are starring the relay running comedian, Evelyn Barnecott. Then we fly to China and visit the Embassy and our noted ambassador, Earl Hakari. News of our arrival was broadcast by foreign news commentators, Marion Bale, Donald Bion-dich, and Claude Dinkle. Next stop, Vienna! There at a well known hosoital we almost lose one of our travelers, David Amo. Because of the skill of Doctor °ruce Larson and Nurse Kay Maccani he pulls through. (He had a severe case of amornostalgia). Here we are at London! We visit a children's orthopedic hospital and meet Pat Drew, head physician, who has discovered a new treatment for oolio. Being exceedingly hunpry, we po to Maki's Millennium for a delicious meal. (Lauri learned his trade working in Michigan Pack). Nearing the end of our journey we thank Clayton Aijala for the use of his helicopters and land happily in New York. Wv are satisfied that the class of 'U9 is doinp fine! In another decade we'll make another tour. Who knows? By then we mipht have a woman President! Wonders never cease!

Wright High School bewildered, but immensely interested in all that was going on about us. After we had adapted ourselves to the atmosphere and had become acquainted with out teachers and our classmates, we elected our class officers. With the help of Miss Janet Reid, our adviser, we chose the following students to represent us: Jim Arasim, president; Mary Bromley, vice-president; Jane Kersh-ner, secretary; and Gay Pollari, treasurer. In our sophomore year the students who had graduated from the Roosevelt School joined us; and, with Miss Ruth Birge as our adviser, we elected Jack Gribble, president; Lauri Kivisto, vice-president; June Moisio, secretary; and Nancy Marander, treasurer. This year, as lower-upper classmen, and with Miss Janet Goudie acting as our junior adviser, we elected Roy Auvinen, president;Geri Larson, vice-president; Jeannie Mattson, secretary; and Marilyn Mills, treasurer. This year is our big year as we sponsor the annual wJunior Prom” to be held sometime in May. During the three years we have been together several of our class members have been outstanding in sports and voluntary activities as well as in studies. Although most of us regret that next year will be our last one, we hope to make our senior year a memorable one in all respects.

National J4onor Society, In the spring of 19 8 three juniors were elected to the National Honor Society. This group chose the following officers: Rita Lesco, president; Carol Anderson, vice-president; Ruth Johnson, secretary-treasurer. Thirty new members were inducted into the society on March 31 twenty-five of whom were seniors and five, juniors. Wearing black caps and gowns, the three old members had charge of the ritual. Rita Lesco gave the introductory speech. The four principles of the society were explained by the following members: Leadership, Carol Anderson; Character, Rita Lesco; Service, Ruth Joimson; Scholarship, Carol Anderson. New members, carrying unlighted candles, received light from each of the candles representing the principles of scholarship, leadership, character, and service. The National Honor Society was first organized in Ironwood in 1922. Those elected to the society must be in the uoper third of their class and outstanding in character, scholarship, leadership, and service. A maximum of fifteen per cent of the senior class and five per cent of the junior class may be chosen as members in one year. Members of the society are voted upon by faculty members after careful consideration has been given to their records throughout their years in high school. The colors of the society are blue and gold, and the symbol is the flaming torch. In the above picture the five juniors are Jack Gribble, Marilyn LaFave, Nancy J. Mattson, Nancy K.

The band has done a great deal to bring our people closer to the school and its problems. It is probably the leading exponent of a good school-public relation program. This is true because even though there is much good education present in other phases of our school, the good educational values of an activity such as band are more readily seen and appreciated by the people. The band, this year, consisted of 60 members, with Mr. Oreste Michi as the director. During the first week of school, before Mr. Michi hardly knew many of the new members by name, the band was on the job playing for football games. Because of the re-sodding of the field, the band could not drill to make formations at the halves of all games. It did contribute a great deal, nevertheless, by playing pep music, and, along with the cheerleaders (with their vocal cords), supported the team and aroused enthusiasm and school spirit in the student body throughout the season. In the middle of the football season the band still found time to work diligently on the Pop Concert, which was given on October 21. After this concert appearance, the band participated in the Armistice Day program and played for the Parents' Night during National Educa- tion Week. The first parade appearance the band made was during the Logging Concgress Celebration held in Ironwood. At the music festival held in Ashland, Wisconsin, last year the band added greater laurels to the success achieved the preceding year by being the dnly band in Class B to be awarded three first places in concert playing, sight-reading, and marching. Many first ratings were also also awarded to solos and ensembles. The flute quartet, brass sextet, and four soloists were recommended to participate in the state festival at Madison, Wisconsin. In appreciation for their accomplishments and the fine work always rendered during the school year, the school board donated the use of a school bus to the band to enable them to travel to Ishpeming on January 19 to hear the great pianist, Arthur Rubenstein, in concert. During the basketball season the band played for all the games, including those held in Bessemer and Wakefield. Besides playing for the high school activities the band played for some of the Junior College football and basketball games. They also performed for the Coronation of the Queen during Sno-Week. As an ambassador of good will and as a friendly gesture, the band, at the last minute notice, went to Hurley to participate in the Home-Coming Celebration for the Mighty Midgets, State Basketball Champions. At present the band is preparing for its Annual Spring Concert to be given April 6 and 7 to students and the general public. The band this year will not participate in a Music Festival, since it has been discontinued in Ashland, Wisconsin. Besides its regular musical activities the band is always called upon to perform for such occasions as Army Day, the annual R. 0. T. C. Inspection, and the Memorial Day parade and ceremonies.

White, gave many enjoyable performances to the students and townspeople of Ironwood. The choir opened the season with selections on Armistice Day and on Parents Night during National Education Week. The choir and band introduced a variation into the school s musical a-genda with a Pop Concert , which contained music from the light operas, New Moon and Naughty Marietta , and several selections arranged by Fred Waring. The main hit of the performance was the rendering by the choir of Dry Pone$� , complete with all the ding dangs. The annual Christmas concert, consisting of strictly American carols,was the next on the choir s program. Early in March the Gilbert and Sullivan Operatta, The Mikado , was given. The lead, Nanki Poo, was played by Marvin Rowe, guest soloist from the Gogebic Junior College; the three sisters, Yum Yum, Pitti Sing, and Peep Bo, by Maureen Wright, Ruth Holmberg, and Margaret Warren; Katisha by Rita Lesco; Poo Bah by Bob Treziae; the Mikado by Andy Rajkovich; the Lord High Executioner by Roy Mueller; and Pish Tush by Jack Bloomquist. The Ironwood choir and the Hurley choir will participate in a spring car-cert which we hope will be the beginning of annual music festivals here in Ironwood. The last numbers the choir will present will be at the Baccalaureate and the Commencement exercises.

National cAthletic J4onor Society, On March 31 seventeen Luther L. Wright High School athletes were elected to the National Athletic Scholarship Society, bringing the school’s membership to twenty-one for this year. Newly elected members are Charles Lorenson, William Peterson, Dennis Plohocky, and Tom Sommers, who are seniors; Jack Gribble, a Junior; and twelve sophomores, Robert Blomiley, Jerry Cvengros, Ernest Dear, Oscar Franpquist, Donald Gonser, William Hendrickson, Charles Knutson, Joe Krause, John Leppi, Jack Newcomb, Clarence Puranen, and Ralph Stenstrom. Fbrmer members were Erwin J. Erickson, elected two years aro as a sophomore, and Frank Milakovich, Lawrence Sobolewski, and Ronnie Surprenant elected last year as Juniors. The society was organised in February, 1925, by a group of secondary school principals in Washington, D. C. There are over 2,000 chapters, representing high schools in every state of the union. The purpose of the society is to foster high scholarship among boy athletes, to stimulate a desire for balanced training, to elevate their ideals of sportsmanship, and to develop more outstanding leaders in secondary schools in the country. Under the elegibility rules any boy in the tenth, eleventh, or twelfth grade of a secondary school is eligible, if his qualifications meet certain requirements. He must have earned an athletic letter, having taken part in either a major or a minor sport; his average for three consecutive semesters, before, at the time of, or after he has earned his letter, must be equal to or higher than the general average of the school; and he must have exemplified the highest type of citizenship and sportsmanship. n. o. v. c.

Ironwood's big fullback, George Mo” Moienda, pulled the game out of the fire with less than two minutes of playing time remaining. The play was set up on a brillian punt return by speedy Jim Arasim. IHS 18- CALUMET 0—September 10—A drizzling rain handicapped the Wrightmen as they fumbled three times in the first half when they were within the 20-yard stripe of the Copper Kings. They finally got started and rolled up three touchdown drives to return by speedy Jim Arasim. IHS 6- ESCANARA 2h—September 17—All hopes of U. P. honors faded as a tough Eskimo eleven handed Ironwood its first loss of the season. Escanaba outplayed the Red and Whitegridmen the first three quarters and scored once in each period. Red Devil rooters got a big thrill as Moienda raced 91 yards for a touchdown, but the play was nullified by an offside penalty. Ironwood scored their only touchdown as Peterson, Leppl, Arasim teamed up before Moienda plowed through to pay djrt. IHS 0- BESSEMER 6--September 25—Taking to the road for the first time, the Red Devils decisively defeated their traditional rivals by scoring touchdowns in the first two periods and picked up an automatic safety for good measure in the finale.

IHS 0- HURLEY 6—October 2—The Red Devils lost their only conference game as the Hurley Midgets managed to squeeze out a narrow passplay decision over the Wrightmen. In the onening period the Devils powered their way to the Midget two-yard line,and even carried the ball over, but the play was called back on a penalty.

IHS 7- ASHLAND 6—October 8—Homecoming festivities marked the grid clash that saw Ironwood trail 6-0 for almost three quarters before a Carlson to Rondeau pass set the ball on theone-yard line for a fourth quarter smash by Moienda. Carlson passed to Aijala for the extra point to cinch the contest. IHS 0- MENOMINEE 31—October 16—Menominee's powerful Maroons, Class B U. P. Champs, completely submerged the game but outclassed the Wrightmen. Ironwood did pain a minor triumph by holding the Maroons to a scoreless first quarter tie. This was the first time in ll games that Menominee did not score the first time they got the ball. Moienda, Arasim, Surprenant, and Peterson played outstanding ball as IHS got as far as the opponent's 2li-yard line in the opening period. IHS 0- DULUTH CENTRAL 19—October 23—In the last game of the season, the TAiluth Central Trojans, one of the top Minnesota high school teams, scored once each in the first three periods to win the contest. Ironwood did make one touchdown, but it was called back by a penalty. Standouts for Ironwood were Volenda, Arasim, eterson, Krause, Holemo, Gonser and Auvinen. LKTTERMEN SENIORS: George Mo Moldnda-fullback. Mo was one of the most valuable players on the squad. He scored of our £9 points. Mo was selected for the M-W Conference first team, the All-U. P. second squad, and was chosen honorary captain by his teamates. He specialized in line smashing, and was a fine open field runner. He received his second letter award. Bill Peanuts Peterson-quarterback. Peanuts , a converted center, assisted the team by his blocking, passing, and ability to break up the opponent's plays. He was selected as captain of the second team and earned his third letter this season. He was also an exceptional line backer-upper, Ronnie Soup Surprenant-guard. Soup was honored on the all-conference first squad, and rated an honorable mention on the second All-U. P. team. Playing his second year of varsity competition Soup was a consistent dependable player, always rough and ready, a good blocker and backer-upper. Erwin Erv Erickson-end. Erv , by injuring his leg in the Escanaba game, received a tough break, which handicapped him throughout the rest of the season. He was used rather sparingly after the mishap. Nevertheless, Erv was always in the midst of the pile-up. He won his third letter and was placed on the conference second team. Jack Origg-center. Jack, one of the best offensive centers in the M-W conference, made the conference second squad besides rating an honorable mention award in the U. P. Grigg won his first letter in football this season. Don Konky Kangas-tackle. Konky made all-conference second team honors in acquiring his second letter ! Baking good use of his size, he showed offensive lineblocking and even made a touchdown, a rare event for a lineman. Bob Carlson-quarterback. Bob saw the most action offensively in earning his second letter. He was an excellent passer and perfected a very fast quick kick that got Ironwood out of tough spots on numerous occasions. Clayton AiJ Aijala-halfback. While not too fast, AiJ made up for that by means of twist-TngancT reversing his field. He was another steady, dependable player and won his first numeral. Jack Hauts Hautala-tackle. Hauts was a quiet and steady defensive player. This was his second yearon the varsity. He was one of the heaviest men on the team and consequently was very hard to take out of a play. Joe Rondeau-end Joe was used primarily on defense because of his lack of speed. Joe earned his second letter. John Slodge Kolodziey-guard. Slodge saw the most action defensively. Opponents found he was hard bo move and he made good use of this at the center of the line when the going got rough. He received his second letter award. Dennis Plohocky-tackle This was Plohocky's first year on the varsity. But for lack of experience, he would have been one of the finest players on the team. He saw the most action in the Duluth Central game. Marion Bale-end Bale lacked experience, but he fought hard for his position. He usually played TUefensive end spot. This was his first year on the main squad. JUNIORS: Jim Arasim-halfback. Jim is a two year letter winner. He gained a berth on the All-conference “second team in addition to honorable mention rating on the All-U. P. squad. Arasim was a hard running defensive back who always turned in a bang-up performance. Jim is expected to be a mainstay of next year's team. Bill Bobo Mukavitz-center. Bobo was a fine defensive backer-upper. He injured himself in the tough fescanaba game and saw limited action the rest of the season. He was awarded his first letter. Fred Holemo-end. Fred was a promising end, both offensively and defensively. Although Fred waiTlight, he made up for it in speed. Much is expected of him next year. Roy Auvinen-guard. This was Roy's first year in action on the team. He was outstanding both offensively and defensively. SOPHOMORES: All first year letter winners. Jerry Cvengros-tackle. Cvengros was the heaviest player on the team. He didn't move too fast, but really got places with his steam roller tactics. Oscar Frangquist-halfback. Oscar didn't see too much action, but he proved himself to be a fine ball player. Joe Krause-tackle. Joe was another one of those heavy players built for the opponents to bounce off of Clarence Puranen-fullback. Puranen had stiff competition for his position. Next year he will get more chances to prove his ability. John Leppi-halfback. Leppi was a speedy ball carrier. He is expected to be one of the spark-plugs or next year's team. Don Gonser-tackle. Gonser proved to be a good line and down field blocker. Next year Don will have more chance really to show what he can do. FRESHMEN: Herman Misuraco-guard. The only freshman to receive a letter, Herman is really expected to go to town in the coming years. I Front Row—0.Fran gquist, E.Dear, B.Blomiley, C.Knutson, J.Newcomb.

In what proved to be the last game of the season for the Wrightraen, the Kingsford Flivvers blasted the all-U. P. hopes of the Red and White I18 to h$. Of the ten players on the varsity, only five will be lost through graduation. Coach Goedde will probably rely heavily on his sophomore quint for next year's cage campaign. Several promising prospects will also be coming up from the B team to help bolster the squad in the future. Of these Clarence Puranen and Ray Grambow were two who accompanied the team to the tournament at Iron Mountain. Prime distinction of the Red Devils was a 1 7-3? walloping of the Mighty Hurley Midgets, a team which later in the season took the Wisconsin State High School Championship. IHS also blasted the U.P. Class B Champ, Ishpeming, 147-32 and soundly spanked the runner-up Iron Mountain quint, Sh to in regular play. Bill Peterson, Lauri Sobolewski, and Jack Grigg made all-conference honors.

Stretch Goedde Student Manager: Ronnie Surprenant Bill Peanuts Peterson—forward, senior, Peanuts , a three year letter winner, played outstanding ball the entire season. He could always be counted upon for points and ended the season with a 13 point average per game. Peanuts perfected a deadly hook shot which more than once brought final victory to Ironwood in the closing, seconds, Peanuts perhaps played his best games as far as point totals were concerned in the second Hurley and Kingsford contests. He closed his final year at IHS by placing second in the M-W conference scoring race. He was elected honorary captain. Lauri Sobs Sobolewski-guard, senior. Sobs was one of themost aggressbee player8 on the team and really went all—out to win the game. He made good use of his high one-handed rafter shot which really burned the netting. Sobs played his best games against Bessemer, Stambangh, and Iron River.A second-year letterman, Sobs was very fast and shifty on defense, and his speed made him a hard man to watch, especially when he broke for the basket. He ranked sixth in conference scoring. Jack Grigg-guard, senior. Jack played good ball throughout the season, es-pecially In the Bessemer games and against Iron Mountain,his old hometown. Grigg stood sixth as far as the conference totals were concerned. He usdd mostly a twD-handed set shot. He was a consistent player and a good floor man. Bob Ole Olson-forward or center, senior. Ole could really jump in the air to get the rebounds. He was a versatile player and a good team player. In earning his second letter, Ole played his best game in the Ishpeming contest. Frank Milakovich-forward, senior. Frank was a cool player and indispensable on defense. After a slow start, Frank found himself, especially in the Marquette and first Hurley contests. Milakovich earned his first letter. Bob Blomlley-center, sophomore. First letter. Blomiley pained the starting center position on the first squad and rapidly developed into a fine Divdt man. Bob had height and used it to good advantage to tip shot in off the backboards. Blomiley played his best game against Iron Mountain. He will be the nucleus around which next year's squad will be built. Cscar Frangquist-guard, sophomore. First letter. Frangquist was the man called upon for replacement in the guard positions. He was reliable and saw a good deal of action which should serve him to good advantage next year. Charles Knutson-center, sophomore. First letter. Chuck is a tall player and has a hdeac3 side shot which should help him out in the future. Knutson will be a man to watch next year. Jack Newc Newcomb-guard, sophomore. First letter. If Newc starts connecting on those one-handed swish shots of his, he will be an extremely valuable player next year. Ernie Dear-forward, sophomore. First letter. Ernie lacks experience, but he will undoubtedly turn into a dependable starter next season. Ronnie Soup Surprenant-student manager, senior.
