For those of us who were seniors, it is hard to realize I lfll, , ' l. that twelve years of school lie behind us and only our futur ijycp 1 plies ahead. I The years to come do not offer too bright a prospect for , ' the world, but let that be a challenge to you-not a determent. ' We endeavor to leave in this Masonian an imprint of some of the things which have made high school a separate life for you. When life's problems loom and threaten, may this book help you always remember 1947-l948 as the good old days . l Barbara Decker, iid! Editor-in-Chief i We wish to express our special thanks to Warren A. Ruby who did a major ' share of our photography, to the Globe-Gazette for use of many of their prints, and to Miss Brakel and Miss Barnard who supervised much of the Masonian typing in their classes.

Having done this, it is essential that you evaluate the past in such a way that it will enable you to continue the climb which will make possible for you to play an important part on the world stage of tomorrow. The role which you are going to be asked to play is a most serious one. lt is only by giving to the fullest extent of your talents that you will be able to continue in the show which has been purchased for you and paid for at a price. Liberty as you would like to have it in the American Way of Living can be possessed by you only it you climb to meet the challenge ot the times. Youth, this is the second time in this century that you have had the opportunity ot meeting the challenge of preserving the peace and happiness ot a tree world. lt you tail to accept the challenge this time, you will be going down the ladder not up. Climb, and may the grace of God be with you. LAWRENCE SHEPOISER, Superintendent ot Schools Page 7 Miss HELEN FULLERTON, MR. HAROLD J. SNYDER, GIRL'S ADVISOR PRINCIPAL Goodbye Seniors. You come to us three years ago as care free school children. You are now about to assume the responsibilities of adulthood. May the knowledge and wisdom acquired in M. C. H. S. help you to live usefully and happily in the days that lie ahead. To the individuals, and to those groups of individuals, who have worked and played together cooperatively is assigned the credit for a successful year. Present under clossmen, will, l am sure, carry on the class of '48 ---onward and upward. Board ol Education MR. P. O. BRUNSVOLD, BOY'S ADVISOR Congratulations to the Mason' ian staff.

The custodians are a grand group of individuals well known to us as they go about the job of face lifting M, C. l-l. S. They are the ones who stay long after the halls or empty of students sweeping Vi-aff uw the halls and dusting the high school, so that the morning sees it restored to a state of cleanliness. Their keys are the last to turn in the locks at night and the first in the morning. TH.. A - Qllice Force fdlff .

Cub Gazette ANTHONY PATTAS CSpecial Student? Page 34 Class Prophecy , Alice and the Rabbit put away the cares and trials of these troubled days and walk again as they gain permission from the Keeper of the Time to peep ahead into the wonderland of the future. Turning a sharp corner, Alice bumps into two fat men standing in front of a sign which says Won- derland of the Future. There are sounds of laugh- ing and talking. She starts going in but two guards stop her. Show your ticket! l'm afraid I haven't one, replies Alice. Then you can't go in, cries Tweedledum. But you can look over the gate, if you like. Thanking him, Alice climbs up to look over. Over there, points out Alice's guide, are the members of the Class of l948 who are teaching 'Reeling and 'Writhing and the different branches of flndecisionf' Peering over, Alice sees Prof, John Bailey discuss- ing the atomic bomb with Prof. John Birkbeck who is creating a gyroscope which will make the world rotate backward. Beverly Jamison, Miriam Teeple, and Veronica Larson, the laboratory assistants, take notes. Jim Best and Bernard Lucas pass on their way to the child psychology laboratory where they are ex- perimenting. There's Barbara Sippel teaching history and the students already know when Columbus dis- covered America. Coach John Dodge sends his boys into the Yale lineup. He has the great halfback Ronald Varvel on his Side. Jim Marker, rival coach from Harvard, sits opposite him looking very de- termined. The score is 6-6. Bill Stoynoff and Verne Greenan now lawyers, stand by, should any legal technicalities arise. Suddenly veterans, attending a convention, come dashing by in their V.F.W. uniforms. The first to rush by is an old-time navy man Bill McKee. Next comes Dick Berner, pilot for the Ruptured Duck. Not far behind is Elmer Pion of the merchant marines and after him Thomas Burgraff of the Air Corps with his dependable mechanic Don Crispin. Towards the end comes Meredith Helm who they say was dis- appointed in love. 'Who are those people over there? inquires Alice. Oh, those are some of our very best citizens, the Rabbit assures her. Their manners are ex- cellent, and they can read works of one letter. The next thing to catch Alice's eye, as you may well believe, is Glen Bortell, now a cop, Margie Stom directs visitors ta the Melvin Davis Cleaning establishment, the Betty White Beauty Salon, where Beverlee Kittleson is hairwasher and Delores Schlie is the manicurist, or to Zemanek's Portrait Studio. Dale Groth has Model T's on his brain. That's his lot next to the Gerald Roth Grocery Store. With all his cars he gives a card stating the address of Dr. Schiffman, surgeon. Mary Johnson's Turkish Bath is the most outstanding place in town, that, or Betty Pickard and Marian Wolkenhaur's outdoor swimming pool. Fred Stephan is the life guard. Over there is a neon sign announcing Don Woodhouse's vaudeville troupe entertaining at the theater owned by Elaine Broers and Joyce Cordle. ln the revue Charles Cole and Alex Kiroff do a sensational juggling act. Edward Pope has his Talking Cow and Thresa Mataloni and Virginia Campbell perform on the trapeez, Richard Nelson, super salesman for the Bob Johnston Stockyards, stands before the theater talking to Allen Holmen, who has closed his butcher shop to enter into partnership with Roger Janssen and Bob Mason in the odd-job industry. Their first job is to mow the Charles Kraft yard. Carol Norris, general manager of J. C. Penny Co., has improved that firm so that she is a threatening competitor to Jane Casey, supervisor of Sak's Fifth Avenue. Paxton's notable gambling house, is the place where it is rumored that Amalea Gazes' pres- ence is the cause for blackmail. Finding the gamb- ling house too wild, you may prefer Don Lee's Club Plaza featuring the voice of Betty Bartlett and the figures of Beverly Rowse and Marian Holmes, third and fourth from the left in the chorus line-sent by the Miner Model Agency. Included in the floor show is the skating star, Mary Lou Hall. Mary Heneman, who is now a featured writer in Zoology, and rich widow Hunter are often seen there with heiress Pat Parker who married the great oilman, Harold Moravec. The most flirtatious, however, is the beautiful divorcee Jane Taylor. Oh my fur and whiskers! Scenery is being made for the play this evening and l forgot my fan and gloves, the Rabbit jumps excitedly. ln the orchestra pit Jim Posz, harp player, finally hits a high C as Harriet Percy strains out the opera The Pig and Whistle. The program says that the props are from the Harry Campbell Theatrical Supply Co. Among the program's advertisements Alice finds Ron' Engle posing for a Hercules ad, while Maybelline features Rosalyn Wolf. During intermission Alice listens to the piano, fingers, and voice of Lester Dutcher, who is on his fifth concert tour. In the audience she discovers Hubert White, foreign minister to Russia and the only one who is able to out argue Molotov. With him are Vernon Myhre and Bob Wandrey, recorders for the U. N. Sitting in the critic section are George Marty, Chi- cago Sun, Jack O'Brien, New York Times, and Bill Bowers of the Los Angeles Times. Then Beverly Hanson and her banker fiancee, Ramon Long appear in the Beverly Lester doorway. That loud boisterous, laughing marks James Whaley and Doug Whistler, band masters for Kay Kayser's Musical Knights, the giggles and titters belong to the town's socialites Phyllis Bloomingdale, Anita Abbot, Anna Pathoulas, and Sophie Karabatsolis, who are always together. The play is a tremendous success making new stars out of Betty Swanson and her leading man Glen Harding. ' Out side on the curb sit Bud Menke and Donald Reynolds, who have failed in discovering a new hair restoring medicine. They are thinking very strongly of going into business with Richard Millington, Edgar Lomen, and Marlin Buirge of the Indian Medicine Co. Leaving the theater, Alice hails a cab and finds the driver to be Earl Carr who married Pat Williams. She turns on the radio: Flash-Alice O'Brien is elect- ed President of Goody Goody Candies - Veronica Lorson receives injuries when she tries to see the new movie sensation, Dick Brickson, whose secretaries are Mary Paschen and Audrey Thrams -- Robert Vician becomes the mayor of Podunkville - Robert Wandery becomes a shale mining millionaire - Mavis Van Horn and Phyllis Buffington's basketball team wins the lnundredth straight game - Bill Wagner named new Superintendent of Boys' Town - Jim Waters, South Dakota wheat farmer makes another million - Elaine Soursos, Edith Martin, Audrey Hanawalt, Carol Brue, and Arlene Colby, cosmetic executives, were seriously hurt when the Dare-Devil Drivers, Rich- ard Koller and Donald Bartusek, crashed into the stands at the Harold Helm Stadium -T Alvin Al- bertus is to go to the hospital to have some of his Page 35 l brain removed as he is too smart - Lloyd Anderson was appointed the new manager at the Woolworth Dime Store - Marjorie Birbeck at the last report is now a blonde - Lois Davis and Janice Donelson are now the head telephone operators - Sally Kehm, Margorie Bailey, Kathryn Zahariades, Dorothy Gett- man, and Dorothy Pigman all tied for being the world's fastest typist - Add Dick Wineman and Ralph Van Note to Shirley Cooper's no list. She declares I marry? Humphl I hate men! What's that awful noise? asked Alice. We're nearing the Garden of Live Flowers, an- swers the Rabbit. When one speaks, they all do so, and it's enough to wither one to hear them carry on. Walking away, he flings back, Hold your tongues or l'lI pick you! George Kallas, famous tulip raiser, has succeeded in making each petal a different flavor, such as chocolate pie or roast beef. Charles Alitz prefers a life of ease. He came in to money when oil was discovered on his farm. He sits in the shade while Raymond Gephart, his foreman, runs the business. His maid, Juanita Berry, gets disgusted having to fan him all day in hot weather. All in all, he is o country gentleman. Gerald Dean's thousand-acre farm is no lazy man's task. Trading with Earl John- son Hybrid Seed Co. started him and Don Heizel- man of John Deere. Improvements helped pave the way. Arthur Peterson has a famed breed of turkeys that can tell you what you are thinking. His spe- cialists are Charles Bennet, George,Fountas, Richard Linder, Gene Mallo, and Joseph Lynch. They run the farm and breed the turkeys, while Beverly Griffen teaches them how to talk. To inspire the up and coming Darold Schmock was elected District F.F.A. advisor. La Vonne Shaffer, Evelyn Barr, Janice Stamps, Barbara Cady, and Ellanora Lucas all help share the 4-H guidance responsibilities. The de- tective, Mary Burger, won her fame by watching the cattle rustlers on the Jerry Herberner ranch in the west. His two side kicks are Dale Plath and Bill Blake. Wandering ahead Alice is startled to see the Ches- hire Cat grinning at her from the bough of a tree. Cheshire Puss, what are those people over there doing? Alice asks. Why don't you use your eyes? the cat saucily replies and ungraciously scampers up the tree. Alice shrugs her shoulders and looks toward the group. Delores Reynolds and Dorothy Jass, with mouthsfull of pins, are adjusting the hem of a very fine gown on a very fine lady, while Shirley Senn, Shirley Ellett, and Elinor Major, designers' boards in hand, direct the undertaking. Looking closer, Alice sees a crown upon the lady's head and the English Coat of Arms. Sure enough, these are the seam- stresses and designers for the Queen of England. Lorraine Axiotis, Myrna Barlas, Pat Brown, Barbara Cady, Phyllis Paul, and Sally Walters are busily sew- ing, too, but their diligence is merely the result of sweet domestication. Carol Klath and Marjorie Mur- ren, librarians for the Queen, bring a note from Marilyn Romey. She is a secretary to a large tea concern in India. lt states that Donna Coziah, Ar- dith Campbell, Cathern Whitney, and Betty Faulk are very peeved that they were left out of the parliament session and that they were thinking of starting a war. Harriet Downing and Ruth Engebretson, head design- ers, just came in with a new rolling bustle design for the Queen's new dress. Clara Petenakis and her assistant, Lois Needham weave material that is going into the gown. lf they do a good job they will be in a ,great demand by Rachel Nielson, Doris Whipple, Marjorie Glanville, and Barbara Decker, who are Eng- land's great ladies. The lords, Richard Gildner, Rich- Page 3 ard Hays, Frank Haugland, and Ed Richer are quite aware of the fact that if this material is exquisite the taxes of England will have to rise again. If this happens Jim Kambanos, Elaine Christo- poulos, and Dale Frye, of the Price Administration, will have to make out a new list to serve the people. Over there in the jury box, says the Rabbit are the jurors. What are they doing? Alice asks. They're writing their names, he replies, else they forget them before the trial's end. Some forlorn looking characters wander by. Aiice draws back, but upon seeing they are only Delores Murray and Mary Brewer, who caught the wander- lust June 3, l948, and who haven't stopped wander- ing since, she is no longer afraid. Her appearance suggests a figure from a comic strip or a character from ldelle Westcott's latest book, the hottest novel on the stands, or in Wayne Dunavan and Dave Stearn's sensational movie that features Shirley Mur- ren, Delores Suby, and Marjorie Wagner with Jack Vaughn and Richard Roark as co-stars. Robert Vance and Harvey Von Wald are the head stage man- agers. She next sees Phyllis Wagner, Richard and Roger Curtis, and Betty Bull who opened up a partner- ship in a cafe. lt is known as the best place on the continent to eat. She turns the corner and bumps into Don Angell and Ruby Alman who are now own- ers of the Follies. lleta Brown and Claire Ellingson are in the chorus, whilen Frances McMullin and Ralph Nissen are the dance directors. Zona Groff, Mary Marshall, Bernice Mohndohl, and Marilyn Kafer are the maids for the stars. They all have many ad- mirers, among them are Jack Krause, Albert lnfante, and Francis Cookman. They have two doormen who are Dale Radcliff and Roger Schwanke. They some- times have to call the policemen on the beat, Albert Saunders, to control the riot. They tell her to go down steam shovel owned by Bill Rickoff. She sees two blocks and see the big Bill Tenny and operated by Edith Opkis, Ardys Paulson, Arlene Moore, Angelo watching as it picks up Laros, and Kenneth Keenan the dirt and dumps it into the turck driven by Robert Moore. They tell her to go one block north and two blocks east and she will arrive at the Hulke Cor- nival where Evelyn Uthoff and Amelia Quinones are the managers of the penny pitch and their ticket taker is Richard O'Brien. Anna Kober, Ida Tibbits, and Marge Taylor are the hula dancers. She sees Glennyce Blanchard with Merlyn Peters riding on the ferris wheel. Riding the merry-go-round are Amelia O'Campo, Mary Diner, Shirley Fjone, Shirley Petting- er, Hallie Pascha, and Virginia Mariner. They are all beating to the time with their feet in the stirrups. The music makers are Robert Bowen, Allan Calkins, and Lyle Butler. Dorothy Buhr is bringing them but- ter as the calliope gets so hot. Paul Harrington and Keith Harriot run the concessions. Joan Hughes, Kathleen Heitland, and Bonnie Richardson are in charge of the basketball game. Their helpers are Tjark Hugo, Vernon Smith, and Kenneth Rasmonsson. They have a terrible time chasing the balls. Efprepia Tailor and Donna Peery have charge of the cotton candy. Right next to their stand is Henrietta Schrad- er's Hot Dog Palace. Ho hum, yawns Alice. Oh, Rabbit, l'm so tired . . . so sleepy . . . everything is getting so hazy . . . She yawns again, l'm going home now! Thank you, Tweedledee and Tweedledum! Goodby, Rabbit!l And now the tale is endedg I hope you're not confused. Don't be the least offended, You were meant to be amused. 6 Class Will Bailif- Hear Ye, hear Ye, order in the court- rooml Judge- We are assembled here this afternoon for a very solemn purpose, that of reading the will of our departed friend, the Senior Class of l948.

To Annita Abbot a special thank youl' for all the time and talent she spent in making posters when- ever school organizations wanted to publicize big coming events, Charlie Bennett was always in the ball game. Just take your choicel Be it football, baseball, or bas- ketball, Mason City sports fans were proud to have Charlie Bennett representing the Mohawks at their best. Busy S Shirley Murren is a prize product of the commer- cial department who generously donated her time transferring Cub Gazette stories to neatly typewritten pages ready for the printer. ' Gerald Dean is one of the high school's special reasons for the pride they have in their band. He is more than Jn accomplished clarinet player. The student body displayed confidence in his ability by electing him both band president and president of the student council this year. Being an honor student didn't keep Betty Pickard from many extra curricular duties. She was espe- cially prominent in girls athletics and a vital cog in Masonian machinery for three faithful years.

S. vocal groups. eniors That's Earbara Decker in one of her behind the footlight duties to dramatics.

This fall the students of dear old city high flocked to the mythical polls to cast their votes. What were they voting for? No, not for senators, congressmen, or politicians, but for student representatives to a student coun- cil. They were democratic students in a free and democratic country voting in a democratic school election. What were they voting for? Probably some of them didn't know, and like many of their parents, cared much the less. However, the majority of students knew and took much interest in this democratic mouthpiece whom they were choosing. Now, just what did they gain? Individually they had gained little, yet as a group they had gained the pride and the self-respect that comes from electing capable people to responsible positions. When the final vote was taken the ballot was always in favor of the common welfare or the good of all. This mighty council chose as officers Gerald Dean, president, Wayne Dunavan, vice president, Lois Needham, secretary. They selected two well-liked faculty members, William Moore and Jean Todd, as advisors. With these preliminaries out of the way the council body swung into high gear and really got down to work. Their first task was the tremendous job of putting on a Mohawk Homecoming. Had it not been for the adverse weather conditions this event would have been a glorious triumph, both for the team and for the sport fans con- cerned. Committees were outlined and a full day of festivities took place with a pep assembly, posters, snake dance, big game, and the final event of the day, the victory dance. One of the more difficult problems tackled by the council was the job of trying to lower the prices at the local theaters. Their efforts were unsuccessful, but some council members expect to resume the project next year, Another very worth while project passed was the injection of a Social Relations course into the curriculum of the high school. This will go into effect at the beginning of the next school year. These and many more questions and problems were handled during the year by the student council. As in all democratic assemblies, some projects were a success, others a failure, but each and everyone was worked on with care and diligence. The Student Council of i948-48 did much for the improvement of our alma mater.

As one of its projects, the l-li-Y awards a sev- enty-five dollar scholarship to the high school senior who is highest in citizenship, activities, scholarship, athletic participation, and Christian principles. Another project this year was the giv- ing of a more enjoyable Christmas to a needy M. C. family. Cabinet members attended l-li-Y conventions at Albert Lea and Des Moines in the fall. At the Albert Lea convention, the Mason City club lead devotions and discussion. This year the club had as its slate of officers Bill Bowers, president, Lester Dutcher, vice pres- ident, Elmer Pion, secretary, Harold Moravec, treasurer, and Dick Stoyles and Wayne Dunavan, program directors.

Through the sale of Homecoming buttons, refreshments at the Homecoming Dance, decals, and trinkets, funds were raised to send the cheerleaders to the Sub-state tournament, pay for part of the Pep Club uniforms, and buy photos taken at the Cheer- leader's Clinic. Future plans of the G. A. A. include those for working in block formations between halves of games, a method for working out prospective candidates for cheerleading, and a point system to award members of the G. A. A.

As in other years the local and state contests formed a powerful incentive and reward for hours of practice. On February l7, L. E.

The smell of greasepaint, lowering of houselights, and horrible thumping of heart in throat may not be fa- miliar to the maiority of M. C. l-l. S. students, but to the few who took part in this year's drama department productions they were well known. Nearly all activity and actual business came towards the close of the school year although try outs and script selections were held every week from September on. During the Christmas holidays the department cooperated with the vocal groups in presenting the play, A Child is Born. This mcving story of a growing faith in Bethlehem on the night of the nativity was enacted with unusual feeling by all cast members. An April 9, an lnternatianal Play Night was an outstanding feature of the Drama year. A one-oct play from this group was given to a pay assembly and was then presented again with the two re- maining one-acts. Unusual costuming, lighting, and speech were earmarks of this night. Finally, on May ld, a three oct play, Out of the Frying Pan spgrkled over the footlights Escaping sophisticated comedy or lofty tragedy, this tale of 3 boys and 3 girls living as actors in a New York apartment was as wholeheartedly hu- morous as a square dance. The main characters were portrayed by Margaret Allen, Virginia l-lelm, Barbara Wormhoudt, Jerry Needham, Ralph Dierks and o college student, Bob Gaffrey. Supporting actors were: Ken- neth Tuttle, Margot Bruns, Marilyn Sherman, Jim Purdie, John Boyce, and Angus MacNider. Left to right: Virginia Helm, Margot Bruns, Don Petersen Marilyn Sherman, Dean Johnson, Bill Blake, and Jerry Needham Z ' QF Imagine the mixup when two English gentlemen rent the same room and don't know it until they meet one day at breakfast! This was the predica- ment in the one-act play, Box and Cox. Actors werei Ted Richer, Tam Maroney, and Diann Krall. Delicate lighting and fragile old Chinese figures charmed audiences in The Willow Plate. Main characters were: M. Sherman, P. Birch, D, Peterson, and T. Richer. Others were: L. Abbott, J, Purdie, A. and E. Kara- mitros, J. Burns, and K. Tuttle. Pistol duels all over the stage were evident in the Russian production, The Boar. Cast mem- bers included: D. Krall, D. Peterson, and P, Birch. The audience gained absolutely nothing from the conversation between the Two Nathingsn, Leonard Riha and Don Maxwell. Cast members watch as Cookie, the dog, is given some exercise. Let's not go into that old cliche about All work and no play, etc, but let's just say that rehearsals really were fun this year at times. At the moment this picture was snapped, the cast was laughing at some unlooked tor antics. Ot the many little known backstage workers, the costume crew is a very important part. l-lere, M. Allen, R. Zemanek, M. Sels, and M. Gray examine costumes for the one act plays. lt was a wonder to see what these girls could make out of a stray blanket or a burlap bagl Page 73 Get off my feet! Want a coke?

The annual Christmas party was held with the traditional Christmas tree and featured Joe Hanes acting as Santa Claus. ln addition, o Mohawk football celebration was held at the close of the gridiron season. At this time, a full-length feature movie was shown free to all members, after which announcer Hank l-look led in the recognition of the i947 team, The committee this year consisted of George Marty, chairman, Barbara Decker, secretary, Gerald Dean, Marilyn Romey, Ralph Diercks, Al Moe, Marilyn Miller, Connie Ellison, Rob Richards, Bonnie Nicholas, Mary Lou Ehlers and Jack Leamon. Chaperones were Mr. and Mrs. Maurice Anderson, better known as Jean and Andy, ond Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth l-ledrick or Betty and Ken, Jack Bailey led the band and had under his baton Junior Anderson, Delmar Diercks, Neil Melcher, Bill Cope, Harold Wolf, Ralph Nissen, Dick Weed, Gerald Dean, and Jerry Bailey. lt really looks like weighty business at this meet- And this is ci band practice in the l-li-Y room. ing, but that look George Marty is giving Marilyn Look at those suits-some occasion, huh!!

Carol Norris was the big wheel who started this year's Masonian variety show rolling, Her ideas and efforts were the big push needed to make it one of the year's best assembly programs. Don Peterson proved himself to be truly a master of ceermonies as he introduced each of the showls sensational features. Topping these was Joe Simon's imitation of Al Jolson. l-le was the only imported product lthe rest being all high school studentsl and his acts literally brought down the house with applause begging for encores.

Gridiron Reports Summary AMES-The Mohawks opened their grid campaign at Ames and found the rainy weather not to their liking as the Little Cyclones triumphed 6-O and the speedy winners outplayed their rivals more than the score indicates. SIOUX CITY fCentralJ-The following week Cen- tral High of Sioux City invaded Mason City for the Mohawks' home opener, and the Little Maroons de- parted a dejected team as the locals displayed a brand of ball which had no resemblance of their play in the Ames game and won l3-O. WATERLOO fWestl-Next, West Waterloo High rode into town with two victories and left with another tucked safely away. The Wahawks were forced to rally from behind in the final period to overtake the Mohawks in their initial Big Seven conference test, winning l3-7. DUBUQUE iSeniorl-The Mohawks next played Senior High of Dubuque and returned home with a split decision, a 13-I3 deadlock with the Rams' in the non-conference tussle. The highlight of the game, as well as the top individual feature of the season, WGS G brilliant 97M yard touchdown gallop by Woodhouse which was the longest run in Mason City High history. DES MOINES iEastl-The Mohawks were riddled with injuries and ineligibilities for this tilt and were ol GGFTTZS drubbed by the powerful Polk county crew. The los- ers were unable to cope with the Scarlet's speed and drive and could make little headway. East tied for the conference crown. WATERLOO lEastl-Mason City, at its lowest ebb o fthe season after the East Des Moines humiliation, paclaed up and trekked to Waterloo to engage the unbeaten league leaders ther. The Mohawks astound- ed all grid reports as they pulled the prep surprise of the season. The visitors upset all dope to spill East l9-l8, and spoil the Trojans' homecoming. CHARLES CITY-Riding high after the East vic- tory, the Mohawks journeyed to Charles City for their annual contest with the Comets. A steady rain, which stopped less than an hour before game time, drenched the field to the extent that it made the turf troublesome to ball carriers, but the visitors man- aged to register two touchdowns as the Mohawks evened their season's record at three victories, three setbacks, and a tie by winning l2-O in their first triumph at Charles City since l939. FORT DODGE-The Mohawks wound up the season at home wtih their traditional rival, Fort Dodge, pro- viding the opposition for the homecoming fracas. The locals were the favorites for the final game, but were forced to settle with a scoreless deadlock, al- though they outployed the Dodgers by a tremendous margin on a muddy field. Page 87 The l947 edition of the M. C. High football team which reported to the new grid mentor, Harry Helga- son, had only four lettermen returning from the previous season. This quartet of letter winners con- sisted of all backs, leaving the line with a single monogram winner. The club faced a terrific sched- ule, playing four Big Seven conference foes and an equal number of non-league opponents. The team's Senior BACKS-DON WOODHOUSE, Woody was the squad's leading ground gainer, specializing in end runs, shared the pass ing duties capably, and was a demon on defense with his smashing tackles. He tallied two touchdowns with a record breaking 97Vz yard run at Dubuque and was the acting captain for all games. His season was climaxed when he was selected for a backfield position on the third IDPA all-state team and was placed on the Des Moines Register's season honor roll. RONALD ENGEL, Skip , great exploits weer expected of him' but had the mis- fortune of receiving a separated shoulder in the open- ing game and as a result was lost to the team for the season. However, he was awarded an honorary letter, this being his third grid M , CHARLES COLE. Chick , played fullback where he excelled with his line plunges which usually covered the need- ed yardage for first downs. He earned a tie for team scoring honors with eighteen points. JOHN DODGE, The Toe , accurately dubbed for he was the team's top kicker with his booming punts and conversions. He was the regular right half-back where he won his third grid monogram. The Toe accounted for three extra points on placements. LESTER DUTCH- ER, Mugs , did not get the chance to show his Junior BACKS: BERNARD BENNETT, Bernie was the typical left halfback with his flashy running and bullet passes. He starred against Central Sioux City which he made two forty-yard gallops and in the East Waterloo upset in which he counted two touch- downs to raise his scoring total to eighteen to tie for high honors. Bernie gives great promise of be- coming champion caliber for next year and was chosen on the lDPA's honor roll. JOHN REUBER Henry started a few games at fullback and was used often on offense with his hard-charging tactics and revealed big indications of becoming an ace full- back. He crossed pay-dirt once at Charles City for his one touchdown. ROGER MOON Rog shared punting duties at right half where he started several engagements shcwing real promise on both effense and defense. His plackick after the first touchdown against East Waterloo, was the deciding margin of victory. ENDS1 DARREL LEWIS Bill a regular who ex- celled in grabbing passes anywhere near him and spilled many backs behind the line of scrimmage. KEITH McQUlRE Mort started the opener at Ames and played in several games thereafter. DUANE JOHNSON Heimy opened against East Des Moines but was out most of the remaining games with an injury. record for the season was three wins, three losses, and two ties. The conference mark was fourth place consisting of one victory, two losses, and a tie. Of the twenty-nine gridders awarded letters at the con- clusion of the season, fourteen are juniors and all played considerably during the season, which gives good indication that Coach Helgasan has developed material of championship quality. Lettermen brid prowess due to injuries during the season, but nevertheless stayed out for practice till the end be- cause of his grand competitive spirit. GENE MALLO Sneaky , lived up to his nickname with his rapid line thrusts but was used mainly on defense where he was most effective, especially in the East Des Moines game, which he started. ENDS: CHUCK BENNETT Chuck , shone equally on offense with his pass-snatching tactics and on defense with his crisp, sure-fire, downfield ankle tackles on punt returns. The shifty flanksmen re- ceived honorable mention recognition on the Reg- ister's selections. Counted one touchdown, that be- ing a forty yard return of an intercepted pass at Dubuque. GERALD SCHIFFMAN, Jerry started the homecoming clash against Fort Dodge and was outstanding on both offense and defense. HAROLD MORAVEC, Pete , was on the traveling squad for two seasons and showed finese at the wing post. TACKLES: DONALD REYNOLDS, Rip , started against Dubuque and played a large share of most other tilts. RICHARD ROARK, Dick , was used at tackle on several contests. Lettermen TACKLES: CARL TURK Moose was half of the team's giant tackle duo where he played regularly and should develop into a terrific tackle next season. He earned honorable mention on the IDPA. JOHN LINDSAY Johnny formed the other half of the huge tackle combination during the latter half of the sea- son and proved he'll make it tough on the opposition next year. NICK KAVAYA Serb started against East Des Moines but was hampered thereafter with injuries. GUARD: ROGER CUNNINGHAM Rag was the most consistent lineman until he suffered a broken hand against East Des Moines and was lost for the remainder of the season. RAY HOLDER Edgar was shifted from tackle in mid-season playing regu- larly. JACK SQUIRES Jake the midget of the team did not start a game but missed only four quarters the entire season. He was a terror to the opposi- tion with his cat-like tactics and will help form a trio of outstanding guards next season. - CENTERS: ROBERT NUTTING, Bob played first string the latter half of the season and stood out well on offense. JAY MARTI, Richard was a regular during the early part of the year but was handicapped with injuries thereafter.

They came through the season with flying colors and racked up the record of l8 wins and 5 defeats. Starting with only one letterman, Coach Starr worked up a fine combination with plenty of hitting power. Fine team work and well timed plays put the Mohawks in front time and timeagain. The squad easily romped off with the Big Seven crown suffering only one defeat in all the league Contests. The District proved little trouble either and the team added another trophy to the shelf when they defeated Charles City. The Sub State looked good too as they dropped West Waterloo without trouble the first night. The second night was different, however, as the Mohawks were humbled betore the onslaught of a red hot Loras team. This ended the season for our cage quintet but the whole school offers their congratulations and thanks!

The crack of bats, the thud of ball against leather, and the ta- miliar cry of You're Out! brings us to spring and the greatest Amer- ican sport, baseball. The Mason City High School squad started the '48 season with a nucleus at only three lettermen. They were Charlie Bennett, Bernard Bennett, and Roger Moon. With these three covering the job of shortstop, catcher, and outfields, Coach Elm- er Starr worked hard and filled in the remaining slots with capable players. Sorely missed from this year's team were Jack Cookman, ,lim Chimbidis, and Tom Waggoner, standouts on last year's great ball club which traveled all the way to the state tournament. The Mohawk nine of the '47 season had a very successful rec- ord sparked on by the pitching ot ace hurler, Jack Cookman. Al- though they were unable to play in the Big 7 tit was called off be- cause ot rainl they won mast at their regular games. Working their way up in state circles they were finally beaten out in the semi- finals at the state tournament, which was held here at Mason City.

The state prep wrestling tournament, held in Mason City for the first time in history, proved a terrific success as more than 2,5000 mat fans jammed Roosevelt fieldhouse on the final night in February. Mason City registered two points on the initial night as two of the Mohawks' representatives ousted their opponents with falls. Jack Squires, district champion in the l29 pound class, and Ken Meacham, runner-up for the dis- trict title at ll8, both notched falls in the opening round. John Reuber, heavyweight, the Mohawks other entrant, lost a closely contested match in the first round. Page 95 Track W T P' if PMT! WM' W ff' fi ..

Time, Time, Time, yes time is of essence out at the Roosevelt field in the spring as Bill Moore's track squad rounds the turn trying to better their previous time marks. Condition and training are most important in this grueling sport where each and everyone must give his all from the moment he starts until he crosses the finish line. Coach Moore started the season with several lettermen and added some very able new candidates. The standout of the squad is without a doubt the half-mile relay team which was pronounced one of the best in the state. 4-,,....4 , . , 4' xslt, Carl Turk, Jim Marker, John Bob Richards, John Birkbeck, Jerry Schiffman, Rave Van Ev- Reuber, Jay Marti.

Golf The i947 team of Coach How- ard Barker, consisting of Bob Sayles, Allen Holmen, Duane Nos- er and Cal Goeders, made a fair mark during the season although finishing low in ehe Big Seven meet at Des Moines which was won by North High. Coach Barker sent Sayles to play singles in the state while Holmen and Goeders formed the doubles combination. As the i948 season got under- way, all squad members from last season, except Sayles and Noser who graduated, returned to the team. This included eight juniors and four seniors. ln the elimina- tion tournament staged to determ- ine positions, surprising upsets were staged. As this is being written a week before the opening dual, Cole is No. l with the second spot a toss-up as yet between Goeders and Holmen. Other lead- ing candidates include: Grove, Sherman, Cornwell, Whaley, Mac- Millan and Anderson. Tennis The heralded shout Fore is probably as familiar to us as the umpire's emphatic Yer out! To the Mohawk golfers it was the pass word as each spring day they faithfully went to practice at the Country Club or the Legion. Volney Hansen, boys physical education teacher, was the coach and, being an enthusiastic golf fan himself, soon molded the candi- dates into a top notch combina- tion. He started the year with four lettermen. These were Dick Wineman, Lester Dutcher, George Marty, and Bob Mason. To these he added the ace golfer Ned Brandt and many other able sports- men. Last year's team composed of the four lettermen and Ray Aves, who moved away, made a very good record. They won most of their dual meets and made a good showing in the state meet. ln addition to the regular match- es, highlights of the season were the Big Seven meet at Mason City, and the State Meet, Back row: Bob Nutting, Dave Parker, John Dodge, Richard Jensen, George Marty, Ned Brandt.

BEEM Speech Faculty I still hold my tirst impression of Mason City Junior College-that it is an institution in which the classroom work is ot exceptionally high calibre, This opinion has been reinforced by the reports which former students now attending other institutions of higher learning have brought back. This high rating ot the Junior College is clue to the work ot the many superior teachers in this college and to the excellent cooperation of the students and the com- munity. lt is axiomatic that any community will have just as good public institutions as it deserves. Only a good community can have good schools. I intend to do everything in my power to continue the development of a Junior College in Mason City which will most completely meet the needs ot the youth of the community. Since society is constantly changing and de- veloping, we must be ever alert to the needs tor changing the educational System which is charged with the responsibility of preparing youth of this changing society. -Dean C.

LOW Government Economics Biology W American History ,, Page lOO Am l:dculty For the past thirty years the Mason City Junior College has been an out- standing institution in its field. Founded in l9l8, it is the oldest junior college in lowa. Originally accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools in l9l9, and maintaining unqualified approval contin- uously since then, it now stands out as lowa's only public Junior College ac- credited by the N. C. A. The high standing of our Junior College is the result of a sincere student body, a loyal, well-trained, and experienced faculty, a cooperative Board of Education, and a community willing to pay the costs required for the development of well-educated American citizens. Along with others, those of you now graduating will have the opportunity, and duty, to see to it that those who follow have stronger, even better, educational opportunities. gl-larold B.

As assistant to Hans he served as line coach and he developed the tough Trojan line. Head coach Volney Hansen fright? taught the T and the Notre Dame box formation this season, and although he was bothered by an unusually high number ot in- juries, he guided the Trojans through a satisfactory campaign. it Mists Page llO Football Bud Burgess Bill Beck Joe Whalen Opening the season on the home field, the Jaycees met and defeated a good Austin J. C. team. The Trojans ran past the boys from Minnesota to win I3 to O. Gary Nissen starred with his bursts of speed and his spirited defensive play. The first road trip took the Trojans to Forest City for a contest with Waldorf J. C. The Warriors had a powerful fullback but he wasn't enough. The Trojans returned with a i2 to O victory. A power-laden Burlington squad rolled over the J. C. eleven in the second home game of the cam- paign. Burlington powerhoused to a 2l point lead and played their reserves for the final quarter. The Trojans travelled across the border ta play Rochester Junior College for their second oway-from- home engagement. A hard-fought contest ended in Rochester's favor I4 to 13. ' Playing host to Worthington Junior College, one of the better J. C. teams in this section, the locals took a 26 to 7 beating. The boys from the North Star state held a 13 to O lead until the Trojans scored a quick touchdownj A sustained drive for a second touchdown was halted by the gun ending the first half. An all day drizzle dampened the Homecoming spirit, but the Trojans rornped to a I3 to O victory over a small but game Estherville squad. In the final encounter of the season, the J. C. eleven splashed and slogged through rain and mud to defeat a spirited Ft. Dodge club I3 to O. A 95- yard touchdown run by Burgess highlighted the game played at Ft. Dodge. JOe Whalen Frank Szymeczek Gary Nissen Page lll Squad lVlen Rudy Alman, a hard-driving fullback, would be hard to equal in hitting the line, quick-kicking, ar back- ing up the line. A good man in any game, Paris DiGregorio Knot pic- tured? was a virtual iron-man. He could shake off injuries and come back to his usual aggressive farm. The Trojans had a capable field general in Vae Geller lnot picturedl. He stepped in when injuries plagued the squad and did a good jab. Bill Beck was one of the big tackles on the team. A heavily-built player he wasn't easily moved by opposing linemen. With his speed and deftness of faat, Bud Burgess was a thorn in the side of all Trojan opponents. He per- formed at left half and, at times, at quarter. Bob Carroll was the regular quarterback until a mid- season injury forced him to the sidelines. He was a vicious blocker and a good defensive halfback. Bill Eaton, a tough, fast guard, was slowed by an injury late in the season but he came back to finish as the number one guard. Another tackle, Bill Gump, proved his worth on de- fense. Lean and rugged, Bill was a valuable asset ta the squad. Bob Kirsch was the team's kicking ace. Though he was a reserve back, he and his talented toe saw action in every game. Big Mase Macer stopped many enemy threats from his wing spot. The tall 200-pounder turned in a stellar performance at end. Dan Martin, stocky tackle, opened many holes for Trojan backs. Page ll2 Squad lvlen A reserve end, Dean Moffett, was in action through- out the season. Bud Menke Knot pictured? pushed for a starting po- sition all season. A wiry end, he had speed and ball-catching ability. A word must be said for the two indispensable man- agers, Jay Sberal and Tom Lane fnot picturedl. They were an hand in times of need, and they were de- pendable. Speedy and full of fighting spirit,,little Gary Nissen sparked the Trojan backfield until a leg injury bench- ed him. He was a fine defensive back. Sandy Sandvik could open holes or back the line with equal skill. This fast, burly guard stopped many enemy backfield stars from his line backers position. The pivot man is all-important in the T formation. Jack Sloan held this key position on the Trojan squad. He was a 60 minute man. Roger Stamps was the team's passing star. He saw action regularly as quarterback until he was injured late in the campaign. Rough and fast Bill Tenney was a star player at his wing slot. His pass-receiving ability earned him a starting berth on the J. C. team. Dick Traub, rangy end, was constantly piling up the enemy backs before they crossed the scrimmage line. His aggressive play kept him in the center of every contest. Joe Whalen earned the title utility man . He was a top notch fullback and an immovable object as a defensive linernan. Gabe Wilch, large tackle, was ci challenging can- didate for a regular spot. He made up for his inex- perience with his size.

The Trojans went on to win this encounter with the Warriors from Forest City. I -l-Com RCCOl'd The Trojans completed the '47-'48 season with a record of l3 wins and 7 setbacks. Web- ster City was the only team to beat the J, C. five more than once. The Trojans played these schools on a home- and-home basis: Waldorf, Estherville, Webster City, Austin, Eagle Grove, Ellsworth, Marshall- I town, Emmetsburg, Boone, and Fort Dodge. Qrz The Trojans lost to Webster City, the third W. meeting of the two clubs, at the State Tournae ment held at Webster City in March, - ' jj- as s Coach Hansen goes over the first half's mistakes and tormulates second-half strategy during their half time rest period. Although Colloton, Quinley, and Henely look dejected, the final score was in the Trojans' favor. Page l i5 Basketball Left to right-Top row: Jim Colloton, George Lindflott, Bud Menke, and Dean Moffett. Bottom row-Bill Tenney, Bob Cole, and Tom Waggoner. Jim Colloton is perhaps the most versatile com- petitor on the quintet. He has participated in a variety of positions on the club. Although he rarely broke into the ranks of the starting line up, Jim has been a pillar of strength and a spark plug in a reserve capacity. George LindfloH's accurate sharp shooting and out standing rebounding were instrumental in many of the Trojan conquests. His offensive efforts were a bright spot in the tilts this season and he exer- cised almost absolute control over both bank boards on numerous occasions. Bud Menke, Mason City pivot man, improved as the season progressed, and as state tourney time ap- proached he was one of the outstanding defensive competitors in J. C. circles throughout the state. Bud's offensive and rebounding abilities must not be disregarded, but he achieved his greatest success throttling the point getting efforts of highly touted opponents. Dean Moffett, consistent guard, returned this sea- son for his second year of Junior College competition and was generally regarded asthe steadiest ball play- er on the club. Dean's scoring pace gained mo- mentum as the season progressed, and he was a dis- tinct threat from his back court post. Bill Tenney, Trojan forward, personified the fiery determination that characterized the attitude of the entire Junior College quintet this season. Bill was seemingly over the entire floor simultaneously, and his aggressive play has engineered many Jaycee triumphs this campaign. Bob Cole, manager, came into his own at half-time, before and after the games, and during time out periods. He performed his unspectacular duties in a manner that made the genial sophomore a handy man to have with the squad. Tom Waggener, former Mason City High School star has established and maintained a standard of brilliant play throughout the entire season. Tommy furthered the cause immeasurably, from his forward spot as he consistently led the Men of Troy's scor- ing parade. Page ll6 Basketball it Jerry Coyle, Chuck Coyle, Left to right-Top row: Ray Henely, and Gabe Wilch. Jerry Coyle is one of the two 2nd semester additions to the Jaycee roster. In the few games he played, he displayed the same ability that gained him fame in high school participation at St. Joseph's. Jerry is very effective under the basket and was one of the better tip-in specialists seen in action this year. Chuck Coyle sustained an injury in a conflict early in the season, Following his return he was unable to regain the form that earned him a starting post. Notwithstanding, this former Johawk ace has been a valuable member of the Trojan crew. Dick Ennis, guard, is a center of turbulence when- ever he enters a contest, for he harrasses opponents continuously. lf Dick could combine a more potent offense with his aggressive, ball-hawking floor game he would be one of the outstanding players on the squad. Bob Ehlers never made the starting line up, but his loyalty and determination was never doubted. Ex- perience will make this tall freshman a contender for next year's team. Dick Ennis, and Bob Ehlers. Bottom row: Bud Quinley, Bud Quinley also joined the squad at the 2nd sem- ester and effectively bolstered the strength of the club. Bud participates at a guard position and is a very accurate long-shot in addition to being a good ball handler. Both Bud and Jerry Coyle par- ticipated in the Y. M. C. A. cage league prior to participation with the Trojans this season. Roy Henely, diminutive floor general of the Trojans this season, joined the club in the opening stages of the schedule, immediately upon discharge from the armed service. Ray captured many laurels for his outstanding performances on the l946 high school quintet and regained this brilliant form mid-way in the season this year. Gabe Wilch, one of the Trojan centers, has dis- played admirable qualities of diligence, earnestness, and competitiveness throughout the season and has pressed continually for a starting berth. Gabe has proved very valuable to the club and if his rebounding ability could have been augmented by accurate shoot- ing, he would have developed into a top flight per- former. Page ll7 J.
