FACULTY of Mukwonago High School, whose loyal, faithful guidance has directed us, the class of 1938, through our four high school years. Page Two THE ARROW Class History On September 7, 1926, the ship, The First 6 Years, set sail from Mukwonago Graded School with Miss Ellsworth as captain and 23 members in the crew. This crew consisted of Frances Bailey, Dolores Buelo, Patty Carroll, Mary Colwill, Helen Dewey, Donald Hembrook, Betty Horne, Henry Krzymianauski, Marion McAdams, Austine Mair, Harold Mair, Herman Miles, Wm. Peterson, Chester Platner, Harold Powers, Josephine Rich, Frances, John, and Louise Schultz, Joyce and Marion Tess, and Albert Wolf. This ship was bound for good and bad weather, gains and losses, and whatever other obstacles might come into its way. For one year we had smooth sailing. Then came the second year: we lost 12 members of our crew, Dolores Buelo, Betty Horne, Chester Platner, Harold Powers, John, Frances, and Louise Schultz, Herman Miles, Francine Mair, Marion Tess, Josephine Rich, and Henry Krzymianauski and gained Earl Ruppert. The next year we set sail for higher seas having to climb two flights of stairs to 3rd grade. Here we took on 6 new crew members, Eleanore Kromeck, Esther Hime- bauch, Louis Rich, Marjorie Yates, Robert Hardaker, and Vera Barton, and a new captain for higher seas of knowledge. Miss Schmidter. How hard our boat did rock with those multiplication tables, but we never lost a soul at sea. We made another knot our fourth year losing but two sailors, Esther Himebauch and Patty Carroll and gained seven fine sailors, Martha Bingham, Gordon Himebauch, Vilas Wegner, Gladys Sonnenburg, Frank Bradley, Allen Kruse, and Anna Yates. This year we took a rest on the high seas to put on an operetta, “Yanki San.” Another year behind us and a new commander at the helm. Miss Van Epps. My, we were proud to move into another room on our ship! We gained three new members, Patty Carroll, Robert Wanless, and Robert Mitchell. No losses, but how Geography and History did shake us! Our calm journey was now disturbed as we had to prepare to Stop at port, unload our cargo, and take a new boat, The Next 2 Years. On our next journey with Miss Nettie Titus at the helm, we rescued 3 new members, Wallace Hall, Oliver Laatsch, and Ardis Ninabuck, although we lost Marjorie Yates. Miss Titus kept us busy preparing for another boat. Finally we were ready to use our last but best boat, Our High School Days. We felt very proud because we were the first ones to use the new Freshman home room. A new home room, a new High School, and 20 new members! Grace Bernau, Dolores Buelo, Ralph Digman, Michael Dolhun, Inez Fardy, Margaret Faulkner, Vivian John- son, Glen Jones, Ruth Michaelis, Harley Mules, Wesley Olson, Lyle Pellman, Walter Schmocker, Max Stawski, Benjamin Vick, Helen Vick, Dorothy Wambold, Robert Woller, Donald Lekfield, and Lydia Deblitz. We felt very superior this year, though we had to carry the name Green Freshmen,” but with 38 members and faculty advisor, Miss Scheffel, we soon embarked as Sophomores. The Sophomore Sea was rough in places; we lost 7 members, Margaret Faulk- ner, Michael Dolhun, Oliver Laatsch, Lyle Pellman, Max Stawski, Robert Woller, Donald Lekfield, and gained one, Mary Keniston; but we think we did well considering the dangerous shoals of Algebra. Remember, Mr. TetzlafF? The next year we really accomplished much. We decided to make up for our heavy losses, and we certainly did. We lost Ralph Digman, Ben Vick, Wallace Hall, and Inez Fardy of our crew and gained Warren Arndorfer, Evelyn Chapman, Lor- raine Engel, William Harris, Meivyn Kalk, Merlin King, Wilma Schultz, Frank Thomas, and Dick Thomas. We gave a successful class play Mountain Mumps.” With the gym at our disposal, we gave the first Prom ever given in our gym. The gym was transformed into a Hawaiian Island. Our royalty were King Merlin King and Queen Grace Baxter.

Here is some exclusive news of Muk- wonago graduates of 1938, and their activities. Harold Mair has rapidly risen from small town newsboy to circulation manager of the New York Times. As a sideline, he dabbles with scientific gadgets. Of late, he has received a patent on a self-operating smoking pipe. This pipe has already attracted many buyers. Who'd ever have thought, back in 1938, that we had a social worker in our midst. Miss Lucile Lucht is at present engaged in this occupation. From last reports we heard that she was carrying on her work in the hillbilly regions of Kentucky. Earl Red Ruppert has given up his job as pitcher for the Milwaukee Brewers and has become a well-known undertaker and funeral director, at last realizing a boy- hood desire. Mme. Helene of Metropolitan Opera fame is giving voice lessons to a group of eager young artists. We used to know Mme. Helene as Helen Dewey. Donald Hembrook, in his modern, new hair-cutting establishment, is giving individualised hair cuts, styled to fit the personality. To each new customer, he gives a sample bottle of hair tonic, guaranteed to safe-guard against baldness. Patty Carroll, in a remarkably short time, has become head nurse in one of Chi- cago s larger hospitals. She seems to be attracting most of the wealthier patients of the Windy City. We doubt that she will long remain in her present capacity. Bob Hardakcr is merrily “trucking er-er we mean truck-gardening his way through life. His better half, formerly Mary Keniston, has relieved him of the re- sponsibility of driving the truck to market every day. We hear very favorable re- ports on their giant muskmelons. Gordon Himebauch has combined architectural designing with contract work. Most of the modern houses around Mukwonago bear his stamp of workmanship. Dr. Robert Parker Mitchell has installed in his dentist's office equipment which enables him to show Walt Disney's Mickey Mouse comedies to his patients. If a movie is included, the extraction is$ 1.50; if the movie is not desired, the extraction is $1.00. In either case, the operation is painless. Marion McAdams finally completed a trip to the altar with Mr. John Peer of East Troy. He patiently waited while she carried out the belief that her career as nurse came first. The popular heart-throb of the silver screen, who is basking in the glory that was once Gable's and Taylor's, is none other than our old high school pal. Merlin King. He is now playing at our local theater as Rhett Butler in Gone With the Wind. At last, they have decided to produce the picture! Flash! Flash! Wilma Schultz is air stewardess on a Pan-American plane piloted by her fiancee, John Van Buren. Their naval base is Pensacola, Florida. Quite a flighty romance, we’d say. From Indianapolis, Indiana, comes word that Warren Arndorfer, an accomplished racer, has entered the Trophy Auto Races. They say he's quite a speed demon, being able to do about 500 miles per hour with his streamlined Ladybird. Professor Frank Thomas teaches advanced Mathematics at Harvard University. His superior intelligence is greatly admired and respected by Ixith the faculty and student body. (Continued on Page 20) Pcrcr© Four THE ARROW Class Will We, the Senior class of “38 being of sound mind and body—(we hope) and desirous of taking with us turn tiddle turn turn, as it is a purely Senior endeavor, do will and bequeath the following: To the faculty, we bequeath our quietness which has given them so much time for rest and peace during our stay here.

The Junior Class was organized in September with 40 students. At the class election we selected Walter Nowatske, President, Gene Fuller, Vice-President, and Joyce Stubbs, Secretary-Treasurer. Miss Morrow became our faculty advisor. Each organization prepared a concession for the Hi-Lites “Jamboree. Our con- tribution was a baseball throw. The selecting of our class ring was not difficult as a standard crest had been previously established. However, we anxiously awaited the arrival and were im- mensely pleased when we finally received the rings. Two members of the Junior Class, Winona Hoffbauer and James Lorey, were selected for outstanding parts in the all-school operetta, “Ask the Professor.” The entire class helped the “show go on” by participating in the chorus and the dances. As in previous year, the outstanding social function of the year, the Promenade, was sponsored by the Junior Class. On the evening of April 23rd, Mukwonago High School held one of its most successful proms. The “promgoers” on crossing the threshold of the gymnasium entered a veritable Garden of Roses. The gleaming white trellises and archways with their climbing roses gave a touch of delicate beauty to the scene. The subdued lighting added to the air of enchantment as those present swayed to the soft strains of Erv. Blcch's Orchestra. The Grand March which took place at 10 o'clock was led by King Walter Nowatske and his Queen, Winona Hoffbauer. The various chairmen and their committees co-operated willingly for several weeks in advance of the happy event. They and their faculty advisor. Miss Morrow, are to be highly commended, for the success of the 1938 Prom depended largely on their untiring efforts. Page Twelve THE ARROW Sophomores Front Row—J. Healey, G. Brady, L. Hookstcad. F.

Ask The Professor It took many months of preparation and the combined efforts of the faculty and students alike to prepare, Ask the Professor, the first of all school musical produc- tions ever given by Mukwonago High School, but the final product, presented April 1, and 2, proved to all that our efforts were not in vain for large crowds filled the gym both evenings. Preparation for the Operetta was begun early in December at which time the principal parts were assigned, the musical score was introduced to the orchestra, and the glee clubs started learning the various songs. After Christmas vacation, prac- tice began in earnest. It was then that every member of the faculty learned he was to take part in the paving of the way to the ultimate success of “Ask the Professor for each had a specific duty to which to devote his attentions. During this period groups of students were scattered throughout the building each practicing its individual dance routine or respective songs. The last weeks were beset with unexpected tribula- tions, sickness and the like, which added to the excitement of the production. The final evenings arrived in due time, and the result of the long practice was displayed. The clever costuming and a public address system provided added brilliance to the well-executed performance. , The story connected with “Ask the Professor opens on the Campus of a fashionable girls' school and centers around Maryida O'Neil (Helen Dewey), a laundress' daughter, and John Ainsworthy (Ralph Digman), a wealthy college boy who finances Maryida's college education. Important parts were taken by Elizabeth Ehlke, Winona Hoffbauer, Robert Hardaker, Wesley Olson, James Lorey, Mary Keniston, and Ethel Harland.

Enter The Hero There are many people in this world who could accomplish things and achieve fame and greatness in various lines of endeavor if they only had complete confidence in themselves. Most people are afflicted with an “inferiority complex.” That is the case of Robbie Sawyer, the central character of the farce comedy, “Enter the Hero,” which was presented at the high school on the night of December 11, by the Junior Class. Robbie is a quiet, modest little fellow who craves peace above all things and in order to win the consent of his fiancee’s father for the hand of his daughter, Robbie is forced to pose as a hero, a great athlete. Poor Robbie is forced into swimming and even football, both of which are entirely foreign to him. But his friends decide that all he lacks is confidence and they prove themselves to be correct, for once Robbie’s inferiority complex is brushed aside, he becomes a veritable whirlwind. The play embodied humor galore, a bit of melodrama, surprising twists, and a delightful thread of romance. The action was tense, dramatic, and exciting through- out. The production was directed by Miss Goetz. Spring Fever February 12 marked the date of the 1938 Senior class play. It was an event that will not soon be forgotten. The action of the play took place in Mrs. Spangler’s rooming house at Brook- field college. Ed Burns, a chemistry student, Vic Lewis, an art student, and Howard Brant, a zoology student, all room there. Howard Brant is frantically work- ing on a term paper for zoology so that he can graduate the next day. Poor Mrs. Spangler is almost at her wits’ end what with explosives and painting and whatnot. Then there are the girls who come around so much. Anne Purcell comes to see (Continued on Page 22) Page Eighteen THE ARROW Clubs L. T. L. Club Front Row—F. Domecki, W. Schultz, J. Tess, M. Wolf, W.

Class Prophecy (Continued from Page 4) Mr. and Mrs. Woodrow Holz, nee Helen Vick, and Woody Jr. are spending the winter in their luxurious winter home in Florida. There's a great boom in the coal business, and prosperity has already turned the corner toward the palatial Holz es- tablishment. Back in 1938, we faintly recall the time when Billy Petersen expressed a desire to become an aeronautical engineer. Recently the papers carried a big write-up tell- ing of his successful skyrocket line to the moon. More power to you, William! Flash! Two local boys make good! From New York City comes word that Glen Jones, known professionally in the world of sports as Gorilla Jones, is “flooring 'em” at Madison Square Garden. He is present heavyweight champion of the world, the title formerly belonging to Joe Louis. Incidentally, his manager is none other than Richard Thomas, known to his friends as “Dick. The other day, while looking through a leading medical magazine, I happened to notice an article written by a well-known person. On further examination, I dis- covered that the author was none other than Dr. Mary Emma Colwill. The article was entitled “Bringing Up Baby. Harley Mules is the owner of a modern 2,000 acre ranch in Montana. He specializes in raising prize “razor-back pigs that are guaranteed not to bite. Frances Bailey is private secretary to Mr. Melvyn Kalk, Wisconsin's Representa- tive at Washington. He is one of the President's most intimate advisors on matters of state. Lloyd Miller, formerly of North Prairie, makes daily visits to the secretary's office. We wonder if they talk over business terms. Evelyn Chapman has inherited a large sum of money from some distant rela- tive, and she is taking a leisurely trip around the world. We hear reports that some handsome Count has become interested. The old Lincoln Inn on Highway 13 has undergone a complete change. We Page Twenty THE ARROW now find, instead, a modern night club known as the “Will-O-the-Wisp.” Its main attraction is that little French importation Joyce-Joyce (pronounced Joyce-Joyce). Back in high school days she was Joyce Tess. Elaine Morrow has become Mukwonago's only police woman. There arc no traffic jams when Policewoman Elaine is around. Remembering William's generosity with his car, we were glad to hear that Mr. Harris has an envious and permanent position as official chauffeur at the White House in Washington, D. C. Have you eaten any of the new holeless doughnuts? They are listed as specials this week at the Johnson Bakery operated by the genial proprietress, Vivian Johnson. The former Ruth Michaelis, now Mrs Walter Schmocker, is living on Schmocker's Chicken Rancho, two miles south of Genesee. Every few days, Ruth goes to Mil- waukee in her big International truck and sells eggs. Mr. and Mrs. Cliff Healy, nee Grace Bernau, are living in a penthouse on Park Avenue. She tells intimate friends that Cliff's greatest fault is squeezing the toothpaste tube from the middle. If you want to listen to something pleasing to the ear, turn your dial every Thurs- day at 8:00 P.M. to that golden-voiced tenor of the ether waves, Ralph Bing Digman. We had a hard time tracing Wesley Olson, but we finally found him in Algiers, where he enlisted in the Foreign Legion. He felt that it was the best way out. Dorothy Wambold has married the object of her high school affection and is now living happily in Milwaukee. This gossip column was written by Ardis Ninabuck and co-worker Austine Mair. It is a syndicated newspaper feature. For five years Austine was an English teacher, but she gave that job up in order to devote all of her time to keyhole peeping. Ardis also has a weekly radio program over which she gives advice to the lovelorn.” We hope this has given you an insight as to the whereabouts of the Seniors of 1938. We’ll be seeing you in the papers! Class History (Continued from Page 3) September, 1937, we set out upon our last but glorious year of sailing as Seniors. Aboard were 3 new members, Ralph Digman, Lucile Lucht, and Elaine Morrow, who made up for our loss of Dolores Buelo and Lorraine Engel. Our class play, “Spring Fever, proved highly successful. We also participated in the all school operetta “Ask the Professor.” As we approach our last port, Graduation, we are proud and happy to hold Mukwonago High School as our Alma Mater. Of the original 23 members, 9 are now about to graduate, Frances Bailey, Mary Colwill, Helen Dewey, Donald Hcmbrook, Marion McAdams, Harold Mair, Austine Mair, Joyce Tess, and William Peterson. Our ship is now anchored, and we bid farewell to our faculty and our fellow class- mates. Joyce Tess, Mary Emma Colwill.

GRACE BERNAU leaves her bottle of peroxide to Florence Grant. HAROLD MAIR wills his balloon-tired coaster wagon to Mabel Chapman. HELEN DEWEY leaves her soprano voice to Jay Healey. FRANK THOMAS leaves his mental capacity to Joyce McAdams. WARREN ARNDORFER leaves his traffic ticket to Arthur Goetsch. Maybe he can have it fixed. RUTH MICHAELIS wills Jimmy Baylcy to Jane Leahy. Lastly, we do hereby appoint Walter Nowatske, because we know he'll never get around to it, executor of this, our Last Will 1st Testament, hereby revoking all former wills made by us.

Spring Fever (Continued from Page 18) Howard, Vivian George likes Vic pretty well, and Lou Herron, a journalism major, comes to use the typewriter as much as to see Ed. Things get still more complicated when Mr. Purcell (Anne’s father) is mistaken for an artists' model, and Mrs. Purcell snoops around looking for her husband. Maude Corey (Howard s aunt) comes all the way from California to see him graduate. Virgil Bean, the zoology professor, comes popping in every now and then, and President Dixon comes to Mrs. Spangler s raving about the new science building that Brookfield is not going to get. It was all fast and funny with loud explosions from Ed's stinkum stinktorum - and it all ended entirely to everyone's satisfaction. Page Twenty-two THE ARROW 11A M M ERSM I Til • KO RTM K Y KK C( .
