TYCHOBEHAHN 50th Anniversary Published by Senior Class of Madison Central High School . . . and dedicated to Central's golden past, of which we are now a part 900 Vi Contents Faculty Seniors U ndergraduates Sports Activities Jr. High Mr. Leonard A. Waehler Principal Congratulations to this year's Tychoberahn staff for its fine 1950 edition! Congratulations to the Tychoberahn on the Fiftieth Anniversary of its birth—its Golden Anniversary. In that fifty years the two original editors of the first Tychoberahn have grown great, nationally famous, as authors and writers. In that time, too. Central High reached her greatest renown, first as Madison's only high school and later as a sharer of honors with East and West. I assure you that none of Central's present teachers (nor even the present building) have been here throughout those fifty years. And the very few of us who have been here for the last twenty-five, assisting thousands like you, will soon, like you, graduate, but with an even greater wealth of memories in our hearts. To me, gold or something golden suggests quality; refinement. Each year of the last fifty has meant for many Central pupils, as it means for you in 1950, a golden year in which they could here refine their own personal qualities and abilities. Central's teachers, old and new, gain much of their happiness from watching and helping that refining process, and from observing the true gold of Central's graduates. We wish you well—a fine life, good friends, and much happiness. L. A.

On October l i, the squad rolled ovor Sun Proirie, 80-0. A week later, lodi came to Madison only to absorb a 64-0 walloping.

The squad was young and mighty green, but a combination of spirit and the will to win, a quality which has prevailed throughout the years, molded the team into a smoothly working unit. Some of the notables on thot '09 team wore Tormey and Justin S. Sam Barry, present head basketball coach at tho Univorsity of Southern California. 1926 - Football By virtue of a 25-0 victory over Madison East in the last game of a highly successful season, the Central High footballers cinched tho Big Six title, a city championship, and permanent possession of the Knights of Columbus trophy.

The team roared through Wayland Academy, Janesville, Beloit, Wisconsin High, Madison East, Kenosha, Milwaukee Tech, and Racine in that order. Tho squad rolled up 202 points as they copped conference and city honors. Opponents could only muster two touchdowns. Two of the individual stars of tho '27 team were Parnell Nelson, quarterback, and Ken Kruger, center, who both rank as a couple of all-time greats. 1928 — Football The football sooson of 1928 proved to be one of tho most successful in the illustrious history of Central High athletics.

The issue wos decided by a 64-yard run by Ernie Mitchell, who won tho individual scoring crown and won a place on the all-conference team. 1940 — Football This was the big surprise team of conference history. Paying no attention to skeptical observers, Coach Harold Gus Pollock's crow roared through the season and wound up with a record of six wins and one loss. The team scored wins over Racine Horlick and Wisconsin High by identical scores of 19-0. Kenosha's Red Devils handed tho Pollockmon thoir only defeat of the season, 12-6.

Page 50 Golden Anniversary Tyclioltcrahn Basketball Coach Bobby Alwin's Orange and Black Warriors opened the season by traveling north for two games. On November 18, the boys dropped a game to Stevens Point, 46-33. Jim Waters led the Central attack with 12 points, followed by Jimmy Conner with 11. The next night saw Wausau trim the Downtowners, 54-48. Conner led scoring with 21 markers while Billy Mischke got 10. On November 23, Central opened their home slate by downing a stubborn Ripon five , 47-42. Conner and Mischke shared scoring honors with 10 points apiece. Our first conference win came at the expense of Racine Horlick here in the crackerbox on December 2. The score was 44-31 with Jim Conner accounting for exactly half of Central's total, 22 points. A non-conference game the next night with Watertown proved to be one of the most exciting ever seen in the cramped quarters of the Central gym. With but 2 seconds left, Ray Disch tossed in a bucket that sent the game into 2 overtimes and a round of free throws, and after the smoke of battle had cleared, the scoreboard read Central 50, visitors 49, Conner's free throw being the margin of victory. Jim dumped in 18 points for the night. The Downtowners traveled across the city to play the West High Regents in the first city series game of the year on December 9. The improving Centralites caught fire in the second quarter and won, 48-37. Jim Waters led the scoring with 14 points, followed by Ray Disch and Jim Conner with 13 each. Despite a great performance by Jim Conner, the East High Purgolders managed to stave off a fourth-quarter rally by Central and won 51-42, in a game at the field house on December 16. Jim led the Orange and Black squad with 18 points while East's Leo Schlicht was getting 19. Central traveled to Kenosha and almost hod the game tucked away, but a great fourth-quarter spurt by the Redmen enabled them to eke out a 36-34 win. A basket by Mario Bonofiglio in the last 7 seconds decided the issue. Conner again led his mates in scoring with 1 1 points. Coach Bob Alwin's crew really turned the heat on Racine Park when the Parkers invaded the confines of the Central gym on January 6. The second half saw the Centralites turn a close game into a rout and won by the score of 60-41. Conner again showed the way with a total of 23 points, his highest single game effort of the year. (lohlni Anniversary Tychohemhn Page 51 The eventual champions, Janesville, paid a visit on January 13, and caught the Downtowners on a hot night; at the end of a hard-fought, eventful game, the Alwinmen walked off the floor with a very satisfying 47-38 victory. Center Jim Waters poured 17 in points while the league's leading scorer, Jim Conner, collected 16. The Orange and Black cagers started the second half of the conference schedule by dropping a 48-42 decision to a determined Beloit club. Beloit shot sensationally in the third period, but Central kept within striking range right down to the wire. Jim Conner's 20 points topped the Central scoring. A revengeful Racine Park five upset the Centralites on the former's home court, 50-43, on January 21. A cold spell in the second and third frames proved to be the team's undoing. Jimmy Conner led scoring for the night with 15 points. Central traveled to Racine Horlick the next weekend and found the malted milk quintet a vastly improved ball club. Horlick shot and rebounded like champions and dropped the Central aggregation to the tune of 58-38. Conner snared 15 points for the night and Disch got 8. A last-second basket by West forward Owen Roberts gave the Regents a close 50-48 victory in the crackerbox on February 3. The game was a typical city series battle with the issue in doubt right down to the final horn. Conner and Waters led the Central scoring with 13 and 11 points, respectively. The loss of Leo Schlicht didn't hamper the East High Purgolders on the night of February 10 and they soundly trounced our Central quintet, 45-32, on the East court. East shot well and controlled the boards, which made the great difference. Jimmy Conner played a terrific game, taking scoring honors for the night with 20 points. The final home game of the season saw the Kenosha Red Devils turn back a fighting Orange and Black squad, 47-32, on February 17. A slender Central sophomore named Loren Tipler took game scoring honors with 15 points. The final game of the regular season saw Central go down, 66-40, before a red-hot Janesville five. The Bluebirds set a new single game scoring mark with those 66 points. The previous mark of 65 was held by Central. Jim Waters played a brilliant game at center and meshed 21 points to lead his mates. Jack Manning of Janesville collected 31 markers. The Central cagers tied for last place in the conference this year with Madison West, but the standings in the league didn't measure Coach Bob Alwin's boys in fight and spirit. When the odds and the score were against them, they just buckled down and tried all the harder. Hats off to the squad of 1950- Jimmy Conner, a lithe junior who will be 19 forty-eight hours before the age limit deadline, took most of the individual laurels this year. Jim won the loop scoring title with 208 points, on average of 14.85 points per contest. Jim also set a new record for free throws in a single season. He dropped in 70 to erase the former record of 69 set by Kenosha's Tom Bienemann a few years ago. Pane 52 Golden Anniversary Tyrhoherahn 1912 — Basketball 1930 — Basketball After a hard schedule, the Modison High School basketball team returned from the Lawrence Tournament with the Stale Championship. With six of the preceding year's squad members in school, the season had oponed with bright prospects. Although the team played well, the coaches, Mr. H. Crispin and Mr. P. Graven, told the squod that they needed to work much harder to finish the season successfully. Towards mid-season, with an undefeated record behind them, the Modison team mot defeat in a hard-fought game with Lo Crosse. The final score was 16-11. After this defeat, the team gathered momentum and drove on to win the state crown. The team's very able captain wos George Davy. Balance in scoring wos the answer to this team's successes and achievements. All through the seo:©n, Lincoln Usilton, Ernie Kaoser, Fred Miller, -Egg; Schwocgler, Captain Bob Karberg, ond Captain Froncis Beaudette carried the brunt of the attack. Coach Howard JoSn:on's boys openod the soa-:on by losing at Belo’t, 24-17. They then defeated Racine Park, Racine Horlick, Janesville, Kenosho, Wisconsin High and East. The lost half of the season showed 4 wins and 3 losses. The team went to the Beaver Dam Tournament and roared through 3 opponents to gain a berth in the State Tourney. Central defeated Richland Center but then lost to Beloit. The next three games showed the Centralites winning ond nailing down 3rd place in the tournament. 1917 - Basketball Madison's basketball sun rose on very discouraging scenery in 1917. Practically all of the 1916 team members had been lost by graduation. Although the players lacked experience, they had a good coach, Harold Crispin, and plenty of Central spirit, o combination which proved to be unbeatable. After victories over Beloit, la Crosse, Portoge, and Janesville, our first home game with Richland Center was also won. Throughout the rest of the season, we polished off Waukesha, La Crosse, and Janesville to earn a trip to the state tournament at Whitewater. Our first two games were won decisively. Then came thot heart-breaking game with Edgerton for the title. The final gun sounded after a terrific battle with Modison on the short end of a 14-12 score. 1928 - Basketball In this yeor. Central won the Big Six ond city championships with ease, ond walked a way with championship honors at the Whitewoter Regional Tournament. The Oowntowners fought their way into the semi-finals of the Stole Tournament with little opposition, but couldn't win that mad dening game with the strong, fast, Watertown five . Anytime or anyplace, the Central boys woro favorites; and although the state crown could not be hod. Central had a tremendously successful season, with 17 wins and only 2 defeats. Those two losses came at the hands of Watertown, 27-14, ond Madison East, 19-18. 1929 — Basketball The bosketball season of '29 proved to be a very successful one. With players back from the previous yeor. Central did not lose a game dur ing the entire first semestor. Although the team was considered woakened by mid-term graduation ond injuries, they made a good showing. Central boasted a record of 10 victories and 2 defeats which was good enough to win the city championship and a share of the Big Six crown with Beloit. After completing the conference season, Central entered the Whitewater District Tournament as favorites. The Orango and Black copped the first two games, but lost So Beloit in the championship game by the close score of 22-18. 1940 — Basketball Coach Milt Diehl's 1939-40 bosketball team was the long over-due championship team which roturned to Central its formerly great position in high school athletic circles. The Orango and Black cagers walked off with three chompionships and one consolation prize. The powerful Downtowner teom started off the season with nine consecutive wins before dropping a decision to a strong Racine Park five . After this loss, the bays bounced back to win the next four games only to lose their finale to Kenosho. Central won the Big Eight championship, the city crown, and the WIAA Regional trophy. They met defeat in the opener of the State Tourney but swept through two opponents for consolation honors. 1942 — Basketball Madison Central possessed the strongest basketball squad in Southern Wisconsin during the 1941-42 season. This team was one of the greatest teams in Madison in the last two decades. The Orange and Black quintet was small but scrappy. They won the Big Eight championship, city championship, and the Beaver Dam Regional Crown, thus proving beyond doubt that they were the champs of Southern Wisconsin. The squad under Coach Milt Diehl worked hard because they had been slated as a second division ball club. Here was another oxamplo of Central fight and spirit combining to form a great champonship squad. 1947 — Basketball For the first lime in history the three Madison High Schools, East, West, and Central tied for the Big Eight Championship, along with Beloit. Central also took the City Series Crown for the second co.n;ccutive year. Mo;I observers conceded that Central would hove won the title outright if Al Dockery, great Orange and Black center, had not suffered a shoulder dislocot-ion midway in the seoson. Coach Bob Alwin found a wealth of talent in his starting five, Dockery, Pol McCann. Al Sweet, Bill Babe Withers, ond Mel Troia. Dockery showed the earmarks of a great champion by playing the last six games with his right arm in a harness. Golden Anniversary Tycholteralin Page S3 Sophomore Basketball Under the guidance of Coach Harold Pollock, the Central Sophomores finished up the season in fourth place in the Soph Division of the Big Eight. Central's inability to beat their cross-town rivals, losing once to East and once to West, cost them a possible title. A victory over the Junior High opened the season preceding the initial loss of the year sustained at Beloit. A string of five consecutive victories over Horlick, Watertown, West, East, and Kenosha was halted by Park. Next the sophs dropped Janesville, Beloit, Park and Horlick at the wayside. Then came a close loss to West and also the next two to East ond Kenosha. The season wound up with a victory over the Janesville five. Milo Nelson did most of the scoring with a to ol of 142 points, followed by Gib Pond with 116 points. Jim Noltner showed plenty of drive ond scored well from his guard position. Along with Nelson and Pond, Norbert Schachte did a terrific job at center and was elevated 1o the varsity team after the season was well under way. The fine ball handling ond play making of Dick Corbett certainly was a major contribution to the squad. Joel Liska was this year's manager. Archery The Central High archery team, led by captain Dick Rahn and its new coach, Mr. Victor Lan-ning, ended the season with one win and five losses. Although the power and experience were against them, they went on to cop fourth place in the West Invitational Tournament on March 4, 1950 with an amazing 2,868 point total. Edgerton took first place honors in the tournament. Those boys who participated in most of the matches and the tournament were: Dick Rahn, Charles Neuhauser, John Paltz, John Michaelis, and Henry Schiffer. Candidates who turned out at the beginning of the season for the sport were as follows: Charles Neuhauser, John Paltz, Dick Rahn, Edward Hill, John Michaelis, and Henry Schiffer. Volleyball Taking the Wisconsin State Volleyball Championship has become almost a habit for Coach Harold Pollock and his boys. This marked the third time in a period of two years that a Central team coached by Mr. Pollock has taken a state title. Last year the Central volleyball team walked away with the title when it defeated Belleville 15-5 and 15-3. The team repeated the same process again this year when it trounced Waukesha in the finals 15-9 and 15-5. The returning lettermen from the team of a year ago were Marvin Leitzke, John Minter, Van Burris, and Charles Thompson. The members of the title-holding squad of this year were as follows: Marvin Leitzke, John Minter, Bob Haukedahl, Bob Lee, Van Burris, Charles Thompson, Milo Nelson, Ray Disch, Duane Cook, James Thompson, Willis Ream, Kenneth Urso, Carlton Moss, and Tony Motisi. Track Early this March, 41 boys turned out for the Central High School track squad coach by Mr. Harold Rip Rooney. Coach Rooney was looking forward to a good season with the help of Marvin Leitzke and Ed Forbes, the two returning lettermen of last year. The '49 team scored an impressive 12 points last year in the West Relays. The candidates for the 1950 squad were as follows: Gordon Bentley, Bob Lee, Bob Haukedahl, Darrell Pope, Jim Zirkel, Rollo Laylan, Marvin Leitzke, Pat Raimond, Charles Butler, Ken Mead, Edward Forbes, Louis Olson, Jerran Hanson, Lenny Lahtinen, Ray Disch, Tony Motisi, Keith Rabinowitz, Duane Cook, Jim Whiting, Don Caron, Dick Imhoff, Dick Corbett, Edward Hill, Willis Ream, Charles Harris, Ronald Felch, Curtis Taliaferro, Gordon Faust, Fred Frankey, Ralph Powers, Uldis Briedis, Jim Bidar, Marvin Mazursky, Jim Noltner, Leroy Walters, Ronny Siewart, Dave Thurman, Paul Cardarella, Bob Smith, ond Harlan Klagos. Page 54 Golden Anniversary Tychoberahn Baseball With strong hopes of holding on to the state boseball title that it won a year ago. Coach Pollock and thirty-seven candidates buckled down for the 1950 season. Lettermen back from last year's team were Charles Neuhauser, Bill Pedder, John Paltz, Bob King, and Norm Moen.

The lone returning letterman from a year ago was Chuck Neuhauser. Tennis Under the careful criticism of Coach Homer Winger, a 1950 Central High tennis team was to be molded. Whether it was a success or not still remained a big mystery when this article went to press, but with a fairly good turnout and a good deal of practice—who knows? The candidates for the 1950 tennis team were as follows: Stanton Hershleder, Bruce Maxwell, John Hudson, Jim Noltner, Don Waldorf, Albert Gooch, Stanley Goodrich, and Jerome Goodrich.

It is composed of a boy and a girl representative from each senior high home room and non-voting representatives from each of the council committees and the major clubs of the school. The purpose of this body is to stimulate and to build school spirit, to promote students' welfare, and to serve as a co-ordinator for good will between students and faculty. The council this year lists two projects as its outstanding achievements. First of these was Central's adoption of a school in Europe. This project was sponsored by the council and made possible by the voluntary contributions of the student body. Second was the obtaining of a new school flag. A temporary committee had been working on this project since 1948. The major committees of the council are All-Central, Pep, Social, and Scrap. Council officers this year are: Donald Noel, president; Richard Brilliott, vice-president; Catherine Pertzborn, secretary; and Leonard Lohtinen, treasurer. Chief advisor is Miss Florence Morris, who is aided by Miss Elizabeth Ritzmann and Mr. Marvin C. Foster. All-Central Row 1: I. Notion, B. DeHaven, D. Brilliott, B. Schwartz, M. Bond, D. Gillette, N.

The original thin-papered, three picture pamphlet entitled Ty-co-ber-chn grew with tho school. Now the 1950 Tychoberahn staff offers you this golden anniversary edition. Co-editors of the 50 annual were Dave Marsh and Bob Schwartz. Jr. High editor was Esther Born stein; Literary editors, Carol Faivre and Lola Beale; and picture editor, Catherine Pertzborn.

Choir The Central High School a Capella choir has participated in many activities this year, under the direction of Miss Darlene McCormick. One of the highlights of the year was the annual Christmas Pageant at the Capitol. Following the Pageant, the choir prepared numbers for the Christmas program in the auditorium. The choruses participated in this program. Central choir members had to work hard lo prepare for the mid-winter concert at Central. Following this they sang al the mid-winter musical concert at ihe University of Wisconsin. Getting ready for the spring concert was really fun; the choir sang such numbers as My Romance , Lovely Heart , I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles and many others. And last of all came that sad event ond the final appearance of the choir, commencement. Golden Anniversary Tycholterahn Pane HU Band The Central Senior High Band, directed by Douglas Steensland, has completed a very full musical season. Their first appearance was at the football games where their spirited marches helped the team morale. Of course, many extra hours were spent on the shows that were porformed during half-time. Next, came the Winter Concert and then the Annual Pop Concert. We'll never forget Auditorium Session as only the Central Band can play it. About this time a petition went around the musical organizations in order that they might participate in the State Music Tournaments. The final appearance of the year was the Spring Concert, which ended a successful year. Pane 70 Cohlt'n Anniversary Tt chobcralm Orchestra The Central Senior Orchestra under the direction of Mr. Douglas Stecnsland completed one of its most successful years. After presenting their annual pop concert, the following rehearsals were devoted to prac- ticing music for the Winter Concert. Some of the concert pieces were broadcast over the radio. Of course, the season would not have been complete without playing for the dramatic productions of the year. The Spring Concert was one of the highlights of the season with the group playing a wide variety of works. The final appearance was at the Commencement exercises. Strains of Pomp and Circumstance marked the ending of another class and another year. Gotilcn Anniversary Tycholfcrahn I’tific 71 Oui Cjolden Tflemo’iies By Mary Bond and Betty Searle The hearts of many people have been filledwith fond memories of their high school days. Now we, the graduating class of 1950, have added our high school days to the book of memory. When we turn back the golden pages to these great days, there will be some things that we shall never forget. As we entered senior high in the fall of 1947, we saw that we had several family groups in our class. While we were surprised to hear that Nancy Millette and Ronny Imhoff were first cousins, we knew that Kathryn and Dan Spatola were brother and sister. Jan and Jean Kittleson were the closest our class came to having Dionne quintuplets. Our sophomore year brought a lot of firsts . The curtains went up on November 22 on our first senior high play. Wasn't Janet Raffel cute as A Lucky Penny ? Then came our first senior high dance, the Holly Hop, planned by the social committee which claimed two of our own little sophs, Arnold Armbricht and Lola Beale. After Christmas, we settled down to writing our first semester finals. We studied hard and we passed, as did Larry LaCourse, Vincent Valenza, Vic Tortorici, and Dan Scott. During April the juniors had their prom, and of course we were all proud that our own Jean Reynolds was queen. Some of our luckier sophomores made the prom — Barbara Pitzer, Jean Benson, Marilyn Mahaffey, Lexy Nesson, and Carolyn Schultz. Donna Judd almost made it, but old man measles took over. Our spring play, The Imaginary Invalid , wasn't very imaginative to Donna Kelly who was kept from her part opening night by a case of mumps. In May, the Wisconsin Centennial found Central celebrating, too. The band marched in the two and one-half hour parade. Jean Rosen, Janice Schwandt, Otis Griswold, LaVonne Berry, Dick Johnson, Ludger Parr, Anthony Stassi, and Jim Graham were about ready to collapse when it was over. Central also entered a float in the parade. That evening we all went to Camp Randall for a grand program at which the choir sang. Blending their voices were Edith Brands, Mary Nelson, Betty Searle, Katie Witek, Joan Lund, Jim Zirkel, and Bob McCann. Another grueling set of final exams, and our sophomore year was over. All too soon, the summer vacation was over. We were back in school comparing suntans and suffering with the heat at our first football game. We sweltered right along with our players, Johnny Paltz, Ray Pongratz, Pat Raimond, Bob Lee, and Bob King. We all knew that Jim Waters was destined to become one of our greatest centers. He made All-City and All-State that year. After some spirited campaigning, we elected our junior class officers. Al Caruso was our president. Discussions about junior prom were not confined to the class meetings. Wandering into lunch room 323 we heard Pat Moran, Catherine Pertzborn, Janice Benz, lla Mae Cashulette, Pauline Sweet, Jean Rosen, Pat Jones, and Mary Ryan discussing, over their argyles, latest developments as to themes, decorations, band and so forth. How can we ever forget that great East-Central football game? The girls came away from the game wilh soppy bangs and hoarse voices, while the team swam off the field with a 26-12 victory. Moaning over their straight hair were Charlotte Dugan, Donna Bigley, Rita Gibson, Mazie Benzschawel, and Velma Linden. The basketball season started with a bounce and a bang as we shot our way to victory, winning both games of the Stevens Point-Wausau double header. By this time rehearsals were well under way for Ever Since Eve . Here we found our little Lucy-Belle, you all girl, Carol Mack. Our next dramatic musical, Marriage of Nanette , was presented in March, with Dick Peterson playing one of the romantic leads. Singing in the chorus were Joan Lund, Stanton Hersh-leder, Donna Judd, Crystal Porter, Vincie DiSalvo, Jackie Troia, Jim Zirkel, Mary Jane Quartuc-cio, and John Minter. Our volleyball team won the state championship. We were all proud of our champs—Hugh Stamps, Marv Lietzke, Bob Haukedahl, and Bill Mischke. Stairway to the Stars set the mood for our junior prom. Jenny Capacio and Al Caruso led the grand march. Among those sporting corsages were Donna Lyneis, Kathleen O'Molley, Pat Larson, Marcia Hanson, and Bonnie McKiernan. Page 72 Golden Anniversary Tychoberaltn In the spring, o young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of........baseball. Bill Pedder pitched our school into another state championship. On the diamond with him were Bob King, Norm Moen, Johnny Paltz, Jim Smithback, Charles Neuhauser, Bill Schaefer, and Harry Williams. While our boys were in there winning honors, our girls were by no means idle. Our sportsters included Pat Karnes, Pat Howe, Arlene Bender, Vickie Vitense, Beverly Hanson, and Pat Edge. Other enthusiastic players were Corrine Felt, Beverly Wolf, Willie Jo Withers, Clarietta Kohl, Carolyn Busser, Beverly Jenson, Pauline Wyssbrod, Charlotte Cascio, and Rosalie Spitaro. The graduation of the class of 1949 brought commencement closer to us; for we realized lhat in one more year we, too, would be walking across the stage receiving our diplomas. Summer vacation passed, and before we knew it we were The Seniors of Central. Since this meant that our class had a lot of preparation to do for graduation, we launched our class officer elections. Don Noel was elected president, with Dave Schrader as vice-president. Lexy Nesson was again secretary. The class meetings got right underway with Rollo Laylan suggesting we eat our senior banquet in our bathing suits. We found our senior class to be growing in spite of its original one hundred eighty strong. We welcomed newcomers Howard Turk, Jeannine Radke, Diane Koepp, Rosemary Greene, and Rodney Goth. Then the wheels began to turn. We found Nancy Runkel and Mary Ellis working hard on the Loft paper. Our own school paper, The Mirror, began its twenty-eighth year, with Dave Schrader and Mary Bond editing. The staff of the Tychoberahn began to organize under the leadership of Dave Marsh and Bob Schwartz. Our great football hero, Cecil Central, brought fame to our pep meetings by chalking up over 100 points in one game. The other players who joined our squad were Gordon Bentley, Gerry Foster, John Cordio, Darrell Pope, Spencer Burdick, John Cuccia, Fred Kiefer, and Tom Whiting, ably assisted by manager Fred Lauber. He is coming, and.....he came! Who? The Wizard of Odds! Who is he? Some say he was Carolyn Schultz; others say Bill Fotes. We don't know, but we do know that the Wizard began predicting basketball scores with the Horlick game. Then came the first play of our senior year. Ramshackle Inn kept us all sitting on the edge of our chairs and chewing our fingernails while Bill Fotes, taking two parts, got murdered twice. Although we were busy with our extra activities, we still found time to do our homework. In this corner of the study we see Marge Butler, Myrna Kahl, and Gladys Hanson busily dashing off six pages of shorthand. Next door we find Mr. William Marsh with his POD class. We vowed that Madison would become the first city in the United States with no bachelors or old maids. Shaking their heads in disbelief were Mary Moubry, John Wrend, Florence Bongard, Zenneith Wepking, Eugene Gugel, Samantha Elvord, and Bob Stearns. But we knew that Mary Ann Haak, Ruth Godding, and Beverly Connery will prove otherwise with solitaires, not as solitaries. Home Room 313 and 301 were great rivals, but which home room had the Toni? Why, Home Room 305, of course, with Toni Troia. This home room also claimed Dean Erickson, Duane Lew-ison, Vernie Lopau, John Marty, Lorraine Nilles, Elaine Polkinghorn, Ronny Schultz, Dave Smith, and Don Woider. Sharpening his pencil in 301 along with Bill McDonald, Bob Roisum, Cornelius Cooke, and Donna Crawford, was the great sage, Peanuts Lowry. In 313, Margaret Coghlan kept everyone guessing with her unique bulletin boards. At Easter we found Miss Elizabeth Ritzmann as the Easter Bunny bringing Easter eggs to Dave Zimmerman, Pat Stormer, John Sheehan, Janice Hilton, Betty Gant, and Marion Evert. These weren't the only senior home rooms. Walking down the hall past 323 we hear lla Mae Cashulette keeping her cell mates in stitches...Rodney Anderson, Duane Ballentine, Don Miller, Dick Rahn, Carole Schockmel, Dick Behrnd, and Richard Vandervest. Flash! There goes Frank Conway with his camera. We judge he must take taken a picture of someone in his home room, 221. Who might they be? Probably Clifford Carstenson, Bob Faust, Dick Finn, or Tom Frederick. While the home room rivalry was great, we were all proud of Dennis Crabtree, his hot violin, and Chuck Johnson with guitar when they tied for second place on Horace Heidt's Madison show. Now that all of us are leaving good old Central High, we realize that these have been the golden years of our lives.
