Efforts were rewarded as they observed with what antici- pation their fellow students awaited the dis- tribution of each edition. Setting the pace for staff members was edi- tor Donna Splinter. Paul Kuenning this year completed his fourth year as business man- ager of The Midland. Assisting him was Jim Bowman. The position of sports editor was filled by Ken Dulo. Other writers were these members of the journalism classes: Wilma Bruner, William Heller, Jack McCall, Jean Newman, Bob Hart- wig, Bob Barraclough, Harold Buesing, Bev- erly Burch, Erik Bye, Roger Gieschen, Norma Hille, Willard Meier, Dolores Mikkelsen, Mary Ann Reuter, Dorothy Vopalensky, Betty Law- rence, Margaret Sancha and Bernice Bryant. Advisers were John G. Van Riper and Mary Reynolds. Memories of these journalists were the tak- ing over for a day of the offices of The Fre- mont Guide and Tribune and the publication of the April Fool issue. Page 54

Nine Midland seniors were selected this year by a faculty committee to appear in the 1947-48 edition of “Who's Who Among Students in American Colleges and Univer- sities. Selection for the honor was made upon the basis of character, scholarship, leader- ship in extra-curricular activities and poten- tialities for future usefulness to business and society. Recipients of the honor this year were Ruth Bergfelder, Richard Darr, Doris Eckert, Gertrude Herling, Phyllis Lierk, Arnold Niel- sen, Loueva Pflueger, Donna Splinter and Gene Vosseler.

Compiling a pictorial and -written record of the activities of Midlanders was the year- long task of staff writers of the 1948 War- rior. The largest enrollment this year in the history of Midland merited the publication of a book larger than that of any other year. The 1948 book also is distinguished by the fact that it is the first to contain a kodachrome, or three-color processed pic- ture. Warrior-sponsored events during the year included the second annual presenta- tion of the Petrow Memorial Award to the outstanding Midland athlete of 1946-1947 and the eighth annual presentation of the Charm Revue. Staff writers this year were the following: Loueva Pflueger, editor; Jack McCall, as- sistant editor; Leo Jugler, business manager; Jim Youngquist, assistant business m:n- ager; Roger Gieschen, sports writer; and Norma Hille, Dolores Mikkelsen, Beverly Burch, Dorothy Vopalensky, Jean Newman, Erik Bye, Bob Hartwig and Bill Heller. John G. Van Riper and Mary Reynolds were faculty advisers.
