That’s Joe Grady on the right end of the second row. Remember him? The boys won 8 and lost z that year, besides winning the City title. Twenty Years of Athletics 1 his year marks the twentieth season of competition for Northern Higli School and its famed mentor, Guy V. Houston. During these twenty years the Viking brood has established a reputation throughout the mid- west as one of the most powerful high school aggrega- tions in this part of the country. In Mr. Houston’s sport, football, lie has directed his “boys” to five state titles, nine Saginaw Valley crowns, and twelve city headpieces. With men like Russ Reynolds. Fred Trosko, Steve Uricek, Tuffy, Mitoraj, Warren Bare. Jim Gal- lardo, Bill Hamilton, Dom Tomasi, Rete Fusi. Garth Frost, I-eo Sugar, Shaheen Shaheen, Mr. Houston shaped the state's finest teams. No one will ever forget the famed Gerry Frotnholz, who made everybody’s All- State team, and Eddie Krupa who played on “the team that wouldn’t he beat” of 1939. Those were the days of the Wonder Boys. We wonder if we'll ever have an- other crop like those men. Northern’s basketball team has made an outstanding record in the past 20 years with six state crowns, six You can't find any crew cuts in this photo of the Norse bas- keteers of 1933. James Barclay, Northern’s mentor for 14 years, is in the back row on the right end. They had an amazing record of 16 wins and 1 loss. They won the City, Valley, and State titles. Pictured above is Northern s first undefeated squad and one of the finest and smoothest powerhouses ever fielded by Coach Houston. That year the young Northern took its first Wildanger Trophy by defeating the Indians 18 0. State and Valley laurels also were won. Valley titles, and fourteen City championships. In the six years that Les Ehrbright has been head coach, he has won the City title five times and the State once. In the days of Jim Barclay, remember the Wonder Boys of '39 and '40, Russ Reynolds. Dodson Truss ’33. Bill Barclay, Andy Sahota. Grady Truss '37. Tony Ananich, Earl Kelly '39. Ralph fiihert. Don Kelly '45, Gusty Orr, Joe Wargo, Leo Sugar, Shaheen Shaheen, and John Markland. I he Viking baseball team has won four Valley titles, and tied for the '44 crown. Central has yielded the City title to the Norse eight times. The 1946 team was reallv the top nine Northern has had. Almost the whole first team is now playing organized hall. Boh Henderson, Boh Rickard, Bill Snyder, Rex Williamson and Joe Wisniewski are now playing the minors. Bobby Law- rence and Emery Hresko will never be forgotten as standouts. The Viking Linksmen won four City titles, three Regionais and one Valley title, with men like Dave Anas, Bob Ernest, and Bob Fliechmann. Northern was a top threat in State tennis circles in the past much more than they are now. In 1929 the ■letters took the City, Valley, and Regional crowns and came in second in the State. The next year they dupli- cated the record except that this time they won the State title. The City title was won eight times, the Valley six, and the Regionais three times. No one will forget Hezekialv Bibbs, famed Viking trackster. who set a new indoor track record in the 65 yard high hurdles. With the help of Louie Carpenter, Harry Allis, and Frank Allen the track team won the alley in '30. '31. '43. and '45; the City in '42. '43. and '45. In 1941 the cinder men took the Mt. Pleasant Relays. If s|«ce | ermitted there are a hundred and one stories of the great and small incidents in the athletic history of Northern High School that would he of deep interest to all Viking fans. A 37-27 victory over Muskegon Heights produced the third state championship in nine years for Coach Jim Barclay at Northern, on March 16, 1939.

Coaching Staff This year marks Guy Houston’s twentieth consecu- tive season as head football coach at Northern. Since the school opened in 1928. he has guided his hoys to six State championships, ten Saginaw Valley titles, and thirteen City crowns. Coaching and football are second nature to Mr. I lous- ton. He played end on the Western State varsity for three years. His coaching career began at Manis‘i |uc High School. From Manistique he went to Menominee and then to Western State Teachers College. In 1928 Mr. Houston came to Northern as head coach, and despite offers from various colleges, he has remained to build many lighting teams which have brought fame and a fine reputation to Northern. Mr. Houston has been Dean of Boys at Northern since 1940. He takes great interest in students and student activities. At pep meetings he is a popular s|jeaker because of his ability to inspire students and players with a sense of sportsmanship and fair play. The teamwork and success of Northern squads in years past have been due largely to the efforts of Mr. Houston. VIKING SQUAD.

But still the Vikings had to settle for the second spot in the Saginaw Valley race, when Central High came through with an undefeated season. Among the outstanding men on the ’47 varsity were Leo Sugar and Shaheen Shaheen who were both elected to the All-State first team. Sugar and Shaheen. besides Jack Galarno and Bob Wittbrodt. were given Valley berths. At the annual banquet in honor of the gridders they elected as their captain a sub guard, Dick Aho. His popularity and moral support were an important cog in the Northern powerhouse. NORTHERN 6—KALAMAZOO 6 Northern opened the season with a non-conference tilt against Kalamazoo High but this was a surprise to the press when the graduation riddled Norse eleven matched the finesse of the powerful Kalamazoo gridders Leo Sugar (ivitli the ball) barrels through the Arthur Hill line as Jack Galarno (54) attempts a block. Dingman is shown behind Galarno. Northern won 13-7. to fight them to a 6-6 tie. Leo Sugar pile-drove for the TL) from the one foot line. NORTHERN 13—FORDSON 0 The Scarlet Grey gained revenge from the mighty Fordson High eleven when they warped the Tractors 13-0. Sabuco and Weldon went over for the scores. Fordson was the only team to heat Northern in the 1946 season. NORTHERN 38—JACKSON 6 Northern swamped the Jackson Vikings 38-6 in their last non-conference encounter before the opening of the Valley schedule. NORTHERN 13—ARTHUR HILL 7 Northern downed the usually powerful Arthur Hill eleven 13-7 on tallies in the third and fourth quarters. Northern was in the lead 6-0 then the Lumberjacks On a blanket of snow the Viking eleven put up a valient struggle but couldn't overcome the strength of the undefeated Indians. Notice the use of tennis shoes by both teams and the coating of ice and snow on the field. Leo Sugar is brought down by two Saginaw men on the Northern 2j yard line. Sugar pushed through for a tally later in the game. Northern won 11 to 6. pushed across a FI) to take the lead. With only minutes remaining Gilio Sabuco flipped a pass to Shaheen Sha- heen who gathered it in on the Hills 20. From the five Shaheen latcraled to Leo Sugar who went over for the score to end the game at Northern 13, Arthur Hill 7. NORTHERN 20—RAY CITY 6 The Vikings had an easy time of it with the Ray City Wolves in their 20-6 victor}'. Shaheen Shaheen, Ed Niel and Leo Sugar scored. Howard Kehler, the Norse ace punter, had an average of 43 yards per in that tussle. The Scarlet-Gray scored in the first, second, and fourth cantos. Leo Sugar made a beautiful sixty-four yard run to score. NORTHERN 12—SAGINAW EASTERN 6 The North men continued their winning streak against Saginaw Eastern when they dropped the Trojans 12-6, in a Valley tussle. Shaheen Shaheen scored twice for the Scarlet Gray for the single scoring honors. Leo Sugar is brought down on the Indians 40 yard line by Ted Brabbs. Bob Wittbrodt (with the eye protector), Max Borris (49) and Dick Francis of Central (26) and Jim Bishop (58) are in the background. At the extreme left Eugene Cummings and Don Coleman are roughing it up. NORTHERN 19—OWOSSO 6 Owosso continued its losing streak by submitting to Northern, 19-6. Leo Sugar and Wayne Hope tallied in the first half while Donny Weldon took a pass from Shaheen Shaheen to score in the fourth period to set the count at 19-6. NORTHERN 26—PONTIAC 7 The Pontiac Chiefs played a good game but were on the short end of a 26-7 score. Leo Sugar registered a pair of TD's while Scott and Weldon each scored a marker. NORTHERN 6—CENTRAL 20 On a field more suitable for ice skating, Central downed Northern High 20-6 in the twentieth annual Thanksgiving Day Game. It was Central's first unde- feated season in twenty-five years. Northern played a good game and the line looked great depsite the miserable playing conditions. The Leo Sugar attempts an end around play ivith Jack Calanto blocking Keith Averill of Central out. Averill stopped Sugar though. Andy MacDonald (33) is seen in the background. Shaheen Shaheen really gets tripped up in this one. He carries the ball to the Ou'osso 25 and is brought down by two of the Trojans.

Although they lost, they won the hearts of many spectators for their fine sportsmanship and their never-say-die atti- tude. A record crowd of 19,000 jammed the stadium in 24 degree temperature to witness one of the most ex- citing tilts ever seen in the high school history of Flint. Central displayed a nice running attack which was the big difference in the two teams. The Indians scored their first touchdown in the second quarter. Then early in the third heat, Central went into the lead by 14 points. A short kick that went out of bounds on the Viking 30 set up the second TD. Hillings passed to Jenniches for a first down on the 13. On the third down after a brilliant goal line stand led by Wittbrodt, McKelvey, and Borris, Jenniches went over for the score and Farkas kicked the extra point. Northern got its tally on a couple of magnificent passes by MacDonald. After Wayne Hope ran back the ball on a kick-off to the 41, Andy MacDonald dropped back and hit Weldon for 29 yards and a first down on Central’s 30 yard line. Then on the same great play that had won so many of Northern’s games this year MacDonald fired down hill to Shaheen who made a grandstand catch over his shoulder on the 4 and raced into the end zone. Norm Taylor’s kick was wide. Central then drove by ground and air 74 yards for the final 6 points with Billings going over. Farkas missed the kick. In all. even though they lost to the Indians, these boys had a great year, as they had only three returning lettermen at the beginning of the season; but by hard work and good coaching, Northern turned out a team of which every student can be proud.

Twentieth Annual Football Banquet Northern’s annual banquet honoring the members of the football team was held Tuesday, December 9, in the school cafeteria. The toastmaster was Anson Hedgecock, a graduate of Northern in 1930. For entertainment, the Antlers Quartet sang and then movies of the Thanksgiving Day game were shown. The speakers for the evening were Mr. Otto F. Nor- walk. principal; Maurice Cossman, sports editor of the Journal: and Bob Reynolds, sports director of station WFDF. Letters were awarded to the Varsity squad and JV Sophomore hoys. The managers also were given letters. The high honor of the year was given to one of the reserve men. Dick Aho, elected the honorary captain of the 1947 Varsity football squad. Aho’s aid to the team may not have been on the field, but it was far more valuable as morale builder and hustler. 1 T, Murdock is the victim. He was brought down by the Viking guard, Bob Wittbrodt.

Football Managers The Manager’s job on any squad usually doesn’t offer big rewards, only the saisfaction of knowing that you’re helping in an important way to make Northern’s teams the best possible. The Manager’s job often requires long tedious hours of preparing foot wrappings, uniforms, and equipment, besides looking after all the little wants of the players. which are disgusting at time, during both practices and games. I le almost always puts in more hours than the team. The Football Managers this year were: Francis Martin, Boh Benjamin, John Cox, Bill Gaspar, George Alexander, and Don Hobson.

Johnny Markland (left) was the team’s top scorer and one of the leaders in the valley. He was voted to the All-Valley first string.

NORTHERN 36—PONTIAC 32 In the Norse second league contest they really had a fight on their hands to edge the Pontiac Chiefs, 36-32. NORTHERN 67— HOLLAND 45 The second annual Motor City Tournament took place at the I.M.A. court on January 1. 2 and 3. North- ern was the favorite and Jackson was the dark horse of the tourney. Northern’s first opponent was I lolland. The Dutchmen and the Vikings met in the finals of the ’46 tournament with Holland landing on top. The Norse couldn’t get started in the first quarter, hut paced by Leo Johnson the hoys started going in the second | eriod and rallied to a 67-45 win. It looks like a Maploe dance but it’s really a fierce scramble for a loose ball during the tense Bay City tussle. Stan Tomczyk (56), Ed Luke (49), and Andy MacDonald (33) Northern men in the picture. NORTHERN 38—MUSKEGON HEIGHTS 28 Northern’s next foe was Muskegon Heights. The Vikings led all the way as they dropped the Heights five 38-28. NORTHERN 34—JACKSON 30 The Scarlet-Gray met Jackson on the third and final day of the Holiday Tournament for the tourney cham- pionship. Most sports fans and writers had their eyes focused on the two top guards in the state, Johnny Markland and Vern Allen. It was a nip and tuck battle all the way. Jackson finally topped the Flint quintet, 39-34. with Allen pacing the Jacks’ attack. NORTHERN 54—SAGINAW EASTERN 32 The Norse resume dtheir Valley play up at Saginaw Eastern.

NORTHERN 46—CENTRAL 38 Northern and Central squared off in their City series. It took more than a case of the mumps, a sprained ankle and a 21 point output by Oscar Ingram to stop Coach Ehrbright’s lads. The Indians suffered their only defeat at the hands of the North five. 46-38. A bit of comedy was added to the game when Ralph Rizzardi enthusiastically rushed into the game and laid up a perfect dog shot. The only thing wrong was that it was in the Central basket. Northern set a new series scoring record by racking up those 46 points, as coni- |«red to the previous high of 38. NORTHERN 44—BAY CITY 38 At Bay City. Leo Sugar played only half of the game and John Markland stayed at home. The team just got by the Wolves, 44-38. NORTHERN 45—ARTHUR IIII.I. 44 Northern ended the first half of the Valley slate in first place when they dropped the hot Arthur Hill quin- tet 45-44. It was the final high school basket hall game for Leo Sugar, Johnny Markland and Shaheen Shaheen. There ended the prep careers of three of the finest all- around athletes to attend Northern High. NORTHERN 36—PONTIAC 38 The Viking second half offering was composed of Tomczyk, Johnson, MacDonald, Sabuco and Sheet .. They lost their first valley tussle to Pontiac High 38-36. NORTHERN 50—SAGINAW EASTERN 41 The Norse defeated Leon Smith and company (alias Saginaw Eastern) 50-41. NORTHERN 30—ARTHUR HILL 39 Northern lost their next outing. 39-30 to the Hillites.

NORTHERN 37—CENTRAL 43 • Northern was knocked out of first place in valley play, for the first time of the season, when Central whipped them 43-37. Oscar Ingram was bolted down to seven points but Brotebeck broke loose for 18 marks which spelled defeat along with the Indians free throw edge. Johnson and MacDonald were the Vikings’ offen- sive stars, while Sheet and Scott were the defense Stan Tomczyk (between the two A. H. men) takes a stab at a rebound while Leo Johnson (12) waits expectantly. standouts. NORTHERN 40—OWOSSO 19 Northern High wound up its Valley campaign in second place with a 9 won and 3 lost record, as they blasted Owosso 40-19. Coach Ehrbright started his second and third stringers in this walk-away. NORTHERN 27—CENTRAL 36 Central captured the City crown by downing the Norse 36-27.

The final meet of the slate was with the Pontiac net- ters. against whom the Northern hoys made their best display earlier in the season. This time the Chiefs had an easier time, winning 6-1.

Intramural Basketball Northern's Intramural Basketball in 1947 was bigger and better it) all res] ect.s than all of the past seasons of school sjtonsored basketball. There were more teams taking part, more games, and more general interest by tbe boys who made up the league. In the five different divisions 280 boys played on 35 different teams. They played 280 games at the rate of 7 games per night for 40 nights throughout the seasin. which started December 2, and ended March 2. A great amount of gratitude is due to the faculty sponsors who help'd make the esason so successful. The manager of the leagues was Mr. William Minardo. Mr. Narchie Karwoski was referee, and Mr. Ronald Copelan was official scorer. The highest point total in a single game was when tbe Ovalheads defeated the Squareheads. 82-17. Dave Moorehead collected 32 points in this game, for the highest individual point total of tbe season. I he 5” Dodos took tbe 10B league with a 6-0 record and 1.000 percentage. The Bachelors “5” won the 10A league with 9-3. .750. In the 11 B league the Unknowns and tbe Misfits finished the regular season tied with 10-2 records. In the play-off game, tbe Unknowns defeated tbe Misfits 17-9, and copped the league title with 11-2. .844}. The same thing happened in the Lightweight league when the Heady 5 and the Ovalheads each finished with 10-1. The Heady ‘‘5” edged out the Oval- beads. 20-19. and came through with tbe championship and an 11-1. .917 record. The situation was repeated in the Heavyweight division when the end of the season found the Bucky “5 and tbe Swishers both with a 12-2 record. The Swishers defeated the Bucky “5” and won the championship 39-31. and finished with a 13-2. .867 record. With all tbe facts considered, the Intramural Basket- ball program was very successful, and was very much enjoyed by the players, the managers, and ail those concerned with it.

Those who survived this were properly initiated into the club, which is sponsored by Miss Dorothy Deacey. The first activity was making shakers for the football games. This, as always, was a great success though the girls had to use white crepe paper with the red instead of gray. The shakers, which are becoming a custom with the Y-Girls, add much in the way of gaiety and festivity to our football games. The girls held several joint meetings with the Hi-Y’s. Both boys and girls enjoyed a splendid time. The club’s purposes are to develop character, loyalty, leadership, high ideals of living and desirable social qualities. After telling the purposes of the club there isn’t much need to say that it is Northern’s largest girls’ club.

Concert Band Northern’s instrumental department is composed of three bands—the marching band, the concert band, and the second hand. The marching band plays at football games, basketball games, and in parades from Septem- ber until February. This hand is made up of boys only. These I toys learn to play marches well and loud. They are taught marching and drills. In February tryouts for the concert band are held. This hand is composed of both boys and girls. Now the emphasis is placed on technique, accuracy, and tone quality. Those who are not advanced enough to play the con- cert music are placed in the second hand. Here they are taught tone control, accuracy, and the fundamentals of music. During the past year the hand under the direction of Mr. Bernard Smith, has had a full schedule. Last spring the concert hand, composed of 45 boys and girls, entered the music festival at Ann Arbor, where they received a second division rating in the state. .After the festival they played in a musical pro- gram at Emerson Junior High School. At the spring graduation at Atwood Stadium the Northern and Central hands combined to give the grad- uates of both schools a memorable send-off. In the fall the marching hand, composed of sixty boys, played and marched at all the home football games and traveled to Bay City and Owosso. They also partici- pated in the Armistice Day Parade. This spring the marching band marched in teh Memorial Day Parade. Other activities at which the band played were the pep assemblies, the Fair, and the Faculty vs. Hi-Y game. They made records for the WFDF School Workshop and every two or three weeks they made transcriptions for the Music Appreciation Hour, heard over WTCB. Mr. Bernard Smith, hand director and teacher at Northern for eleven years, moved to Chicago last April 16 to accept the position of Music Director for the Salvation Army in the district composed of eleven Cen- tral States. Mr. Smith’s successor is Mr. George Cochrane, for- mer orchestra teacher at Northern and director of Em- erson's band and orchestra. He plans to revive the orchestra here. The student director was Jim McLaren, and the drum major, Jim Sherwood. Both boys did a fine job. Orchestra How one, left to right—Bill Maynard, Victoria Busch.

Mary Jane has further distinguished her- self by being elected Secretary of the National Junior Red Cross Council. This year the council undertook the task of writing a new constitution for future councils to abide by.

Our choir was much in demand, and performed often during the year. Local organizations called on the choir t nun time to time, and one of the first performances they gave was for the M.E.A. Convention. Radio pro- grams were also on the agenda, and this group recorded many songs for FDF’s “School Workshop of the Air.” They also sang over “The Church of the Air” broadcasts. One of the most inspiring programs given by the choir was the Annual Christmas Concert, which was held in Central’s Auditorium. The same selections were used at a msuical assembly held at Pontiac. The choir performed for local groups, among them the Exchange Club, and .also for churches. Officers for this year are: President, Richard Fergu- son; vice-president.

There are hundreds of photographs to he assembled, arrange and captioned. Editorial copy must l e collected from hither and yon. edited, checked and rechecked. Decisions have to be made, after careful consideration and much discussion, as to meet a certain deadline to get to the printer’s “lrst”. It is a tremendous task and. down to the very last comma and pcri«Kl. one which proves the value of working together toward a common goal. Finally, the big day is no longer a distant mirage, everything is ready. The workers can heave a sigh of relief, roll down their mental sleeves and wash paste and ikn-stains from their capable hands. Wrinkled brows and tired eyes are relaxed, and hearts rightly glow with the pride of accomplishment. Yes. it has been a big job. and this year’s Norosco] is sure to be a “best seller.
