S. when we started out as freshmen and most of us had him as a teacher in mathematics or general science. In our junior year we chose him as our class adviser and for two years he has worked tirelessly, helping us with our various activities-parties and the like. We are very grateful for all this help he has shown us and wish him continued success as a teacher at Lutheran High. fvavlvci 9,1-U ff51iff'yWW,:y25f9w9 8 P J I N2 fl?

Board of Directors On the collective shoulders of the Lutheran High School Board of Directors rests the direct responsibility of maintaining our school and its property, and providing for the welfare of our students and faculty, This is the group, too, which handles the financial business of this institution for the churches of the Lutheran High School Conference. With this body of men rests the duty of selecting and calling qualified Christian men and women to serve as teachers. Planning the budget and seeing to the incoming tuition are more of the Board's responsibilities. The upkeep of the school building and its surrounding property is another prob- lem of the Board. More recently the most important topic under discussion has been the financing of the new school. With the Lord's help the Directors feel they will eventually succeed in this great project. These items are only a few of the problems which confront the Board of Directors at its monthly meetings. 6 Administration At present the position of Business Ad- ministrator is vacant. Until January of this year Pastor A. J. Beversdorf served in this capacity, faithfully fulfilling these duties. The work of this office requires much time, patience, and understanding, for the business administrator acts both as busi- ness and as property manager for the school. As business manager, he is in charge of the collection of students' tui- tion, congregational contributions, and mis- cellaneous contributions, such as those re- ceived from associate memberships. He also does the banking, purchases the need- ed supplies for the schoolg looks after the printing, makes financial reports to the Board of Directors and the Lutheran High School Conferenceg provides a yearly bud- get estimateg takes care of insurance for the schoolg and concerns himself with the future expansion of Lutheran High, As Property Manager he hires the office and maintenance staffs and buys school equip- ment.

'1 695655 Capfdvs.. as Mrs. Thiele Mrs. Zoschke Maintenance An important part of our school is the cafeteria. Here two ladies serve as cooks and prepare lunches for the faculty and students. Mrs. Thiele, the chief cook, ar- ranges and prepares the daily menus. In March of this year Mrs. Zoschke, her assis- tant, passed away. She was replaced by Mrs. Vohwinkle. Mr. Johnson, our janitor with the friendly smile, has been with us since 1936. He keeps the school in perfect running or- der with the help of the other employees. During the winter, his main duty is tend- ing the boiler. After school Mr. Johnson and his assistant. Mr, Riemer, may be seen sweeping the floors or washing win- dows. During the summer, you may see them painting the walls. varnishing the floors, or cutting the grass. Mr. Johnson is a real friend of the students and enjoys doing favors for them.

Esteemed Seniors!-The rush for gold is still on. In this year 1949, the year of your graduation, the world round about you is still carrying on a frantic search for earthly gain and wealth as that which will assure them of a con- tented, happy, and worthwhile life. Even education today regards the attainment of the good things and success in this life as the goal to- ward which students are to be guided. You are indeed to be called blessed for the fact that in your education you have been guided toward a higher goal, that in your training you have received that which alone will make you content and happy now in this life and in the life to come, and which will make your life truly worthwhile in the service of your Lord and of your fellowmen. That is the One Thing Needful which Mary of Bethany had chosen. It is the Pearl of Great Price of the merchant man who sold all he had and bought it. May you never exchange this pearl for anything else in the world. heads English enjoys playing T. R.

Order my footsteps by Thy Word And make my heart sincere, Let sin have no dominion, Lord, But keep my conscience clear. Assist my soul, too apt to stray, A stricter watch to keep, And should I e'er forget Thy way, Restore Thy wand'ring sheep.

Col. 3, 17. God, in His infinite wisdom, saw fit to call to Himself in heaven Melvyn Herwig, a member of the class of '49, Melvyn came to Lutheran High from Concordia College in his sopho- more year, and his death came suddenly at the end of that same year. He had been a bicycle enthusiast and had made several hostel 'trips in the United States. He also made two trips into Canada by bicycle-one, when he was fourteen years old, and the other at the age of fifteen. He was killed one night when the bicycle he was riding was struck by an auto- mobile. Though his life upon this earth was short, we know that he is far happier in the presence of his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. 36 .Swag xx N , ifll' 3 xi., 'A a ! 2 fs EN -Y' X Q., V.

Q twggmk - Religion Religion is the major subject which we are taught. It is this subject which distinguishes our school from other local high schools. In religion classes we be- came re-acquainted with the patriarchs, the Apostles, and most important our own Savior, Jesus. In addition to learning doctrine and Biblical history, we learn how to give proof of our Christianity in our daily life. This important training will be carried with our students throughout their lives. COURSES OF STUDY Old Testament History Freshman Year The Life of Christ Sophomore Year Poetic Books of the Bible and Hymnody Junior Year Books of Acts and Romans Senior Year English Second in importance is the re- quired subject of English. Here, students are given the highlights of American and English litera- ture, including a study of the poets, prose writers, and outstand- ing classics-as Macbeflz, Our Town, Thanatopsis, and others. They are also given a thorough review of grammar and composi- tion. Since English is fundament- al for future success, everything possible is done to give us a basic foundation in our high school years. COURSES OF STUDY Prose and Poetry for Enjoyment Freshman Year Prose and Poetry for Appreciation Sophomore Year Prose and Poetry of America Junior Year Prose and Poetry of England Senior Year .4 1 . 31 3 S H Mathematics Math at L.H.S. includes bookkeeping, busi- ness math, two years of algebra, plane and solid geometry, and trigonometry. These sub- jects teach us not only that 2 plus 2 does not equal 6, but also that one need not go to the zoo to iind a hypotenuse, It seems a shame that with all the talent our students derive from these subjects, someone had to go and invent a comptometer. Oh, well, such are the things with which we intellectuals have to cope.

Band. The fact that the uniforms are a bit snug or that a member is apt to hit a few sour notes mat- ters little when the band beats out our school song or rousingly en- tertains during the intermissions of our annual school play. Every- one says our band sounds better and better. Perhaps Mr. Jung- kuntz's system of having a junior band to groom our younger musi- cians means the difference. Chorus We have all heard it said that the Lutheran Church is called the Singing Church. This is shown by our Mixed and Girls' choruses. These groups, under the direction of Mr. Paul A. Jungkuntz, give adequate proof of his talents in their two annual concerts. Be- sides the two regular choruses, there is also the small chorus, composed of about 70 selected voices, which we call the L.H.S, A Capella. This chorus sings at various churches on special occa- sions upon request. Mechanical Drawing Perched upon their high stools, the future draftsmen of America begin to work. No, this is not the newest club at Lutheran-just the mechanical drawing class as they settle down to an evening of plans and blueprints, Mr. Grunwald, that one member of the faculty who is rarely seen by the entire student body, is the instructor of this profound subject. The boys dabble in circles, squares, angles, and curves in plotting and plan- ning designs in various types of architecture.

German Wir lernen auch Deutsch at L.H.S. It is not an uncommon sight to see students busily por- ing over their Worfschalz just be- fore class in preparation for their daily quizzes. German is .also considered a very important part of our curriculum because many of our parents and grandparents in Milwaukee are of German des- cent and still speak the language.

Bartsch. This fin- ished product has been assembled under the very capable hand of its editor, Marian Wissbeck. Ably assisting her in her num- erous and varied responsibilities, were Mar- garet Hayden, layout editorg Dorothy Buch- holz, copy editorq Bob Hintz, pictures editor, and Enos Schaper, business managerg and a staff of forty members of the senior class. The Aurora is paid for in part by the gen- erosity of its patrons. The patron money was solicited by the seniors, the majority of whom showed willingness to make a success of this gigantic undertaking. Al- though at times the endless accumulation of work and obligations seemed insurmount- able, Mr. Bartsch's helpful encouragement plus added effort on the part of the staff made it possible to finish the book on schedule. The Aurora staff wishes to thank the entire senior class for its effort, ideas, and co-operation, without which this year- book could not have been published success- fully.

Two groups of girls composed the Gregg Club of Luth- eran High School. Each group was sep- arate in that it had its own class periods for meetings and dis- cussions. All mem- bers of this club were students of otlice practice. The first group elected LaVerne Riemer as president, Marilyn Gauger as MRS. KOMISAREK Gregg Club vice-president, Joanne Elmer as secretary, and Carol Hilty as treasurer. This group was under the leadership of Mrs. Irma Komisarek. The second group, which had Mrs. Margaret Knoll as its adviser, elected Nyla Thiele as president, Corinne Fischer as vice-president, and Muriel Johnston as secretary treasurer. At regular meetings, the girls discussed good grooming in the oilice, at home, and in public. Proper man- ners were also discussed and advice given concerning oilice procedure.

Films were also shown which gave the girls instructions about various office machines and techniques used in oftices. The advisers also assisted by telling the girls what would be expected of them by employers. The main event of this year's Gregg Club was the annual Christmas Party held jointly by both ofhce practice groups. After a sup- per, which was served in the evening in the school cafeteria, gifts were exchanged among the girls. Marilyn Gauger played jolly old Santa Claus and dis tributed the gifts The three commer cial teachers were in- vited, Mrs. Komi- sarek, Miss Tonn, and Mrs. Knoll. Each teacher was given a corsage and a gift by the girls. Other parties were held during the course of the year. MRS.

This was the eighth year the players had put on such a play. The pro- duction Twixteen , placed under the skill- ful direction of Mrs. Edith M. Janssen by faculty adviser Mr. R. P. Krause, was one of the best ever presented. The play in- volved the everyday life of the Wells family. The complications which arose because Rod- ney Wells discovered girls and muscles at the same time, made the play very hilarious. Of course, it was not just the work of the cast that made the play a complete suc- cess, it was also due to the work of the production staif. Al- though there was a good deal of hard work on the part of everyone concerned the excellent audi- ence and the thrill of public presentation MR. KRAUSE rewarded their labors. Besides the major play the club also pre- sented a skit at the Open House, and three one-act plays at the end of the year. Mono- logues and dialogues were presented at the meetings and these were graded as to mem- ory work and presentation. At the end of the year awards for the year were given to the players who had earned a specified number of award points. These awards consisted in certificates, a silver or gold pin, and sweater emblems. The officers for the year were Dorothy Buchholz, presidentg Carolyn Liedich, vice-presidentg Carol Donner, secretary- treasurer. Besides the regular activities of the club, the cast of the major play had the opportunity to see Hamlet and several shorter plays. MRS. JANSSEN I brought you some pie, Rodney. iTwix!een!

Otiicers were Harold Gawrisch, pres- Camera Club ident, James Brunner, vice-president, Wil- liam Bothe, secretary-treasurer. The high- light of each week was The Picture of the Week, which was posted regularly on the bulletin board. Meetings were held twice a month in which the members brought their pictures to be criticized by the other mem- bers of the club. Discussions were also held at these meetings concerning filters, home lighting, developing, printing, and other re- lated topics in photography.

The organization, whose adviser was Mr. Fenske, had a large membership, consider- ing that this was the first year such a club had been introduced to our school. The pres- ident of the club was Ray Cox, and Mar- garet Mayer was secretary. Sketching Etiquette The aim of this organization was to learn the fundament- als of art, to consider the basic principles of music, and to learn a few things about etiquette. Be- sides these things, the club promoted good will and gave the students an opportunity to become better acquainted with things of cultural value. MR. FENSKE Top Row: S. Verhaalen, B. Riedel, M.

The Student Coun- cil is the board of students which is or- ganized to be the in- termediate step be- t tween the faculty and student body. The freshman and sophomore classes have three representatives while the junior and senior classes have four. This year, elections were preceded by days of colorful MR. KRAUSE Student Council and vigorous campaigning by the candi- dates. The Council, consisting of fourteen members and its president, Allen Kaiser, meets one day each week with the adviser Mr. R. P. Krause, to discuss plans to perfect this system of student government in our school. The lost and found department, the students' game room, and locker supervision are only a few of the numerous activities under the supervision of this active organi- zation. 66.1151 5 lhfi1i5sbp..:,g 3 Ticket sale Los! and found Sludenf council meels if . - M , g Top Row: F.

A Capella was organized this year for the purpose of singing at special church services and school activities. There were approximately fifty students in the choir which rehearsed every Friday under the direction of Mr. Jungkuntz. Of all the places at which the choir sang, the students will long remember singing at the County Institutions where they repeated the entire Christmas concert. Several num- bers were also rendered at the Open House and were very much appreciated. Pep Band The Pep Band was an organization which seemed to be seen only at football and basketball games. This small band repre- sented much grueling practice, usually done after school and sometimes on Wednesday evenings. The sole purpose of the Pep Band was what the name implies-to furnish the games with the needed pep. Back Row: L. Grund- man, T. Repinski, D. Weishaar, T. Henning, C. Sperber, G. Thrond- son, C.

It helps to enliven the basketball and football games, provides between acts music at the annual school play, and is duly appreciated at the annual Open House. Although Mr. Jung- kuntz, the director of the band, had a diili- cult time training the students, they amply rewarded him every time they played. The members of the band enjoyed playing their instruments almost as much as we enjoyed hearing them. A special room was provided for the band in the barracks. This enabled them to practice without disturbing other classes in session. In January the freshmen and sophomores were all given the opportunity to hear an interesting talk by Mr. Walker, director of the Lutheran Symphony Orchestra. Mr. Walker has traveled all over the state. visiting high schools, either starting bands for them or suggest- ing ways to improve those that are al- ready established. He said that a band should have at least seventy-five members and pointed out that MR. JUNGKUNTZ it is not difficult to learn to play an instru- ment. All students interested in playing an instrument were urged to join the band, and those who joined, he emphasized, would find that music can bring them joy during the school year as well as after graduation. This year only two members were seniors. Top Row: L. Grundman, D. Raetz, T. Henning, T. Repinski, D. Weishaar, R. Johnson, G. Johnston. Third Row: L. Wiedenkeller, W. Gross, N. Mixdorf, G.

Football Varsity Although Lutheran's 1948 football varsity was given a strictly second division pre- season rating, the Knights turned out to be, in the words of Coach Pat Falk, our best team in the history of the Wisconsin Prep Conference. Lutheran's gridiron success was a team victory. The backs were good, but they could have gained nothing without the sup- port they received from a surprisingly strong Knight line. Kuenn, Barian, Unke, and Mertz all prov- ed themselves capable backs. Kuenn did all of the kicking, his best effort, a 52 yard dropkick field goal Qagainst lVl.U.S.j won him the Associated ' i': '-...., P r e s s s t at e w i d e Q award, Player of at the Week.

Ron played well all season, but his best game was against Port Washington, he tallied all of the Knight's points that eve- ning. Mertz, a rough fullback, broke up the tight Northwestern Prep game with a 71 yard scoring jaunt after intercepting an enemy pass. Barian and Gunther Bollmeier, an end, were Lutheran gridders honored on the first string All-Conference team. Kuenn, Kuss- row, a tackle, and Wolf, center, were sec- ond team selections. Lutheran's line played a steady brand of ball through- out the season, and to mention all the players in this limit- ed space would be impossible. A tribute must be made to them as a team, for that was how they worked ! HAEGER Barian, speedy halfback Kuenn, passer, punier, dropkicker THE SEASON PREP CONFERENCE STANDINGS 6 Wayland . . . 0 N. W.

Cheerleading The reactions of the crowds at the games, which were controlled by the capable cheer- leaders, added more color to the athletic events. This year the cheers also had the new look-most of them being flips and splits. Besides the Fight, Team, Fight , We're with you, Team, so fight g and the Pep cheer , several were added, the Be-Bop being the youngest of all. Enos Schaper and Joyce Taron, active for the past two years, will have completed their schooling at the end of the year, thus leav- ing Gordie Johnston and about four girls led by Joan Wrensch to look forward to another year of service, Although they worked hard at practicing their cheers, they will all agree that they had a good time while doing it. The cheerleaders really put their hearts into their work and rate a big hand for their loyal support.

Kuenn, heralded as the Prep Conference kingpin, was scheduled to lead his highly regarded Knight quintet to its first undisputed title, and surprisingly enough, he and the team lived up to every expectation. Lutheran found the role of champions in the form of five hard-to-fill pair of cage shoes. It wasn't just their appearance on the hardwood that made the evening's com- petition bow in complete submission, as you might have thought. The opposition was always up for its bat- tle with the Knights, for to them, it wasn't just another game, but a chance to knock off the favorites. Consequently, the Blue and White had to play their best brand of ball throughout the season, without a let-up. The Alumni loss, to a team such as Luth- eran's with whom winning had become habi- tual, could have easily been the psycho- logical breaking point, but the Knights pick- ed themselves off the floor the very next evening as they rapped Chicago Christian with a fourth quarter rally that left the nets smoking, again showing why they were to wear the crown. A team that can't stand to lose, doesn't deserve to win. Hostile crowds looked upon the Knights as sneering villains and on an occasional off night one found the gym's visiting fire- men ready to condemn everyone from the individual stars to the whole conference. Fortunately, those off nights were few and far between, for the audience that the team drew, wanted to see championship ball. All the credit should not be given the players for it is hard on coaches, too. Pat Falk and Ed Haeger merit a compliment for piloting our Knights home. It was truly the greatest team ever to take the court for Lutheran ! Top Row: R. Unke, H. Kuenn, J. Bretzmann, A. Kaiser, G. Freitag, R. Kussrow. Bottom Row: S. Sidlik, A. Nauertz, R. Gesch, R.

B Team The B Team, this year consisting of juniors and sophomores, is an important step in gaining experience for later com- petition. Although the team did not own as impres- sive a record as that of the varsity's, they did get the practice required for their future positions since from this group, next year's varsity will be chosen. While the juniors joined the varsity for the main events, the sophs teamed up with the freshmen for several preliminary games. This gave them all added poise for their later spotlight appearances. Frosh Team The freshmen five is the initial training period in the proper molding of a basketball team. This year's squad has shown the greatest promise since the present Prep Conference champs were yearlings. They possessed a good seasonal record and developed rapidly, so rapidly in fact that they ably turned back the sophomores when the two teams scrimmaged. The path to a championship is a long, hard climb, but with the proper handling, this team could develop into one of the strongest in the history of the school. Top Row: F. Jenny, L. Ahlbrand, N.

Tumbling Tumbling, one of the up-and-coming ac- tivities for the girls at Lutheran High School, has grown from a small group of nine, to an eager and active body of fifteen. Its leader, Ray Semenske, a former gradu- ate of Lutheran High, is a more-than-cap- able coach who has spent a great deal of time and put a lot of effort into his gym- nastic followers. He himself can keep pace with the best of them. Their annual performances were certainly enjoyed by all. Open house was the first and most important event of the year for them in which a full program is always planned to acquaint the future freshmen with the athletic possibilities offered here. They also performed during the half of a few Varsity games. Some of their choice selections were flips, headstands, fans, back bends, somersaults, diving, cartwheels, and pyramids. Shirley Omann, an enthusiastic tumbler, and Ray got together for special daring stunts during these times. Regardless of the aches the girls may have had before they got used to this stren- uous routine, the pleasure they received from participation in this sport far outdis- tanced the pain they endured.

Baseball In the spring of '48, Lutheran High fielded one of the most powerful baseball teams in the school's history, finishing with 14 wins and 3 losses. Excellent pitching marked our team's success, with Unke, Kaiser, and Kuenn shar- ing most of the mound duties.
