Canar, B. Tanner, . Nelson. SEPTEMBER Sept. 4—We leased out our vacation and marched back to school. More fun? Paying tuition, standing In book line, and most Important, trying to get a look at all the new freshmen. Gosh, they look greener every year. But get a load of this, not every small town school can welcome back two handsome ex-soldlers. Ah, I feel school will be full of pleasures this year....Seot. 14—Snakes!!! The school was full of them. Don't get your fears up, It wasn't another of the boys pranks, Just a lyceum course on them. But how would you like to have a great big snake curled up around your neck? Ask Phyllis, Fern, or Janie how It Is. They know. Tonight was a great night for the freshmen; the first school Dartv of the year was held. Jt should have been peppy, but It wasn't. Why-don't more of our handsome boys learn to dance?.. Sept. 21—The gridiron season oDened when Durand came up and beat us 13-7, for their first victory over us In 3 years....Sept. 26-Small Pox and diphtheria vaccinations were given today. One of our football boys fainted. For shame------and a senior, too____Sept. 28—Tonight a busload of happy kids started out for Black river Falls for the football game aboard one of the school busses. At Osseo. a terrible thing happened----two blowouts. By the time they were fixed It was too late to travel the remaining thirty miles, so homeward we turned, none too happily. The bad turned out to be good as we won 9-6. OCTOBER Oct. 5—Today the grids and most of the school Journeyed over to Arcadia for another big game. We won 19-7. When we reached the old home town n bunch of us feasted on a big water melon. ...Oct. 8—Tonight we had a OAA meeting------- really had a good turnout too. Plannee our Initiation and football banquet.••.Oct. 9—Gene Tierney was In our school today, but only In a movie, HUDSON BAY. It was a three reel, full-length movie, and everyone enjoyed It...Oct. 10----- The Pep Club put on a pep assembly this morning, but I guess we didn't give the team a right send- off for we lost to Whitehall, 13-0...Oct. 15----- Today was another big day for us seniors. We ordered our graduation name cards and announcements. Oh boy, Just wait till next soring... ..Oct. 19---The National Honor Society had Its first meeting today. We elected officers and set up our schedule for the acquiring of new members. Osseo's football team came down today, ready for victory. Gosh, we hated to disappoint them, Dut the score was 24-6. In our favor, of course.'... CcJzvuLan. Oct. 22—Every thing was happening at school tonight. More mystery!J! Fish eyes, angleworms, ghosts, olts filled with water, and Just everything ghastly and ghostly strewn around the gym—but for a very good reason. The GAA was holding 118' Initiation. At the same time a MIRROR meeting was going on in room 200. 3hh!!, don't tell anyone, but I think that's where the girls' lunch disappeared...Oct. 25-----The annual snake dance was held tonight. Due to some mean person who lit the bonfire as a trick, too early, our bonfire pep meeting had to be held before our dance through the down town streets. There were CcJbuuLcst talks by the co-captains, some of the kids, yells by the cheer-leaders, school songs, and much merrymaking. Then we Joined hands and by the able leadership of our co-captains danced through the streets. Later Mr. Berg, manager of the theater, let us into the show THE CORN IS GREEN for Just the tax. Ah, if only homecoming would come more often... Oct.26----- Today was the day we've been waiting for for almost a month. Homecoming. And we won over Augusta, 28-6. But tonight was really the climax. We GAA girls put on a banquet for the football boys, the manager, and the coach. And I'm telling you, those guys really had the appetites. Afterwards we had an Informal dance for the GAA and the football boys. It all ended happily, but oh, the dishes and the sweeping. But for our football boy6, we'd gladly do it again tommorrow night. Or would we???? Oct. 31--More decorating, but it really paid off. For tonight's school party was a huge success. Halloween can be a very festive occasion, especially when a good band like the Stout boys from Menomonle rattle their instruments. The refreshments were swell, too, but to top it off it rained---and we girls spent so much time trying to make our hair look pretty, Just to have it all spoiled by the rain. NOVEMBER Gosh, it seems October was the month, for there really wasn't much doing the first of this month. Nov. 9-----Tonight the Gllmanton Panthers came to town to open the basketball season. Boy was that game exciting . As it ended we were tied, but thanks to the overtime playing we won, 27-26. Too bad it was a non-conference game. Nov. 16-----Another good movie in school today starring Sonja Henle and Caesar Romero. We also had our Sadie Hawkins dance tonight. But darn it, I'm Just like Sadie, I didn't find a man. Nov. 21-Photograoher took our cla8 pictures today and seeing tomorrow is Thanksgiving we got out of school at 3:00. Nov. 22-25----Thanksgiving vacatlort. Just think, four whole days of vacation...Nov. 26---Between the deer hunting season and the flu I don't know which keot the most kids out of school, but it was really bad...Nov. 30----The 1945-46 basketball season opened officially tonight when we Journeyed over to Whitehall. We started the season right, for we won 31-21. December Dec. 7---Tonight the Arcadia quintet met us on our home floor in another big basketball game. Their Journey was in vain, though, for we won 50-33...Dec. 12--Tonight the Junior Class presented the play HUCKLEBERRY FINN.

P1-—This afternoon we had a small Christmas program before adjourning school to spend 2 glorious weeks In Christmas vacation...The Augusta Beavers Journeyed over tonight, along with fane and cheerleaders. The game was quite close, but we finally topped them 32-28. JANUARY Jan. 7----We all came back to the good old school this morning after a perfectly wonderful vacation.

All right, I won't embarrass you. I had a nice wholesome time. Hope you can say the same for yourself. And seeing this Is a New Year, are you going to turn over a new lear or are you already on tne last page?...Jan. 8----Today the seniors attended a class meeting to elect the most out standing senior girl of the class of '46.

CcJUsutan, Easter Cantata. APRIL May Junior prom, music festival, Senior trio, baccalaureate, graduation. Every day at 11:52 A. M. the cooks of our school are hailed by a stampede of hungry students rushing In unison. The aroma of vegetable soup or mashed potatoes and gravy drifts up the stairs and the line moves faster at the bottom of the stairs to be greeted by Mrs. Henrietta Elde, Mrs. B. Johnson, Mrs. Nora Olson, and Mrs. A. Nelson, the four cooks who cheerfully cook the abundant and delicious dinner for around 300 students. In approximately 15 minutes the playroom Is empty and the' cooks are left to wash the many stacks of dishes without an automatic dishwasher and to prepare for another day. tyasuZo'iA. To the students of MH3 Merton Colby and Albert Schultz are as mdch a oart of the dally routine as the studies. Without them the school would be lost and many lockers would remain shut due to some minor trouble which Mert can always remedy. The hall would look bare without Albert and his brushes, and students would be lost without his wit and humor. Cheerful and willing In everything they do, the Janitors well deserve the gratitude of the students of Mondovl High School.

The Juniors are well represented In athletics, music, debate, pep organizations, forensics, and various other school activities. A magazine sale was carried on by the Junior Class early last fall. The Juniors seem to have been super salesmen for they sold $250 worth of magazines; approximately $100 was added to the class treasury by this means. The Juniors showed not only good salesmanship but dramatic ability as well when their play Huckleberry Finn was presented to a large audience who seemed to enjoy It. By tnese means the Juniors earned money for sponsoring the Junior Prom. Don't you agree with the Juniors when they say, We really have reason for feeling proud of ourselves ? TOx- MOW: D. Wild. A.

The freshles were Initiated Into Mondovl High School In October of 1945. The sophomores (what the freshmen couldn't call them) were In charge of the program. First of all, they made the freshles crawl across the gym floor on their hands and knees, and there were floor burns galore the next few days. Then they had the usual rigmarole for Individuals. After that there was a lunch and then a dance. The freshles went home bruised but happy. During the year, the freshmen proved to be very valuable additions to MH3, for they oroved to be leaders, not only In scholarship, but In extracurricular activities as well. TO )'•: R. Swain. J.

The 9ale of Victory bonds and stamps was the main project undertaken by the eighth grade this year. During the last bond drive the members of the class sold bonds to the amount of $825 and 3181 worth of stamps. In addition the seventh and eighth grades filled four Junior Red Cross gift boxes. They also knitted an afgan. In the social activities field, parties were given every two months to celebrate the holidays and the birthdays of the studente. In this way, each student was honored during the year, since those whose birthdays occur In the summer months are feted at some time with those of the regular month.

Mondovl's charging Buffaloes enjoyed another successful season on the gridiron, winning third place In the Mississippi Valley Conference. The team placed two linemen, Newell Erickson and Jack Roffler, on the all-conference team and the Buffaloes were considered a leading contender for the title throughout the entire season. In the last few days of August and the first days of September the boys reported to Coach George Nelson for equipment. The weather was hot and the panting, puffing team trudged wearily Into the showers with wet, soggy uniforms every night, but all thle served as a good conditioner. After the first two weeks the Mondovlens had two scrimmages with St. Patrick's High School of Eau Claire and one with Eau Claire Senior High. Following these warmup games the blue-Jerseyed lads made their debut with Durand on their own field. The visitors, who were later to win the championship, took advantage of a bad Mondovl kick and scored a set-up touchdown which proved to be the deciding factor In the game that ended 13-7 for Durand. The Buffaloes bounced back at Black River the next Friday night, as they downed the Indians 9-6, on a muddy, rain-soaked turf. The second victim was Arcadia, who fell under the team's running (cont. on page 50) QootbcJUs BACK ROW: J. Hill, J. Kelson, K. Schultz, R. Jones. FRONT BOW: S. Wulff, A. Everson, D. Duncanson, H.
