Rose of the Danube Our musical instructor, Mr. Janies Palmer, did a wonderful job of directing, successfully, Northern’s Operetta, “Rose of the Danube.” The cast was made tip entirely of students, with a zippy backstage crew of over ten faculty members heading the various com- mittees. Upper left: Conspirator Count von Popova (Nardi Nance) begs for mercy while his two friends defeat- edly look on. Upper right, left to right: Richard Ferguson, Doro- thy Young, Samantha Ijames, and Ray Weston sing one of the “catchy” choruses in the operetta. Bottom: This trio of conspirators lent needed humor to the otherwise serious plot. Left to right: Frank Hempsall as Trombonius, Nardi Nance as Count von Popova, and Jim Pitts as Demetrius. Above—Truly an ideal ending. The conspirators are captured and young love has blossomed between beautiful Rose and her suitor, Darrell Davis. 'I he main char- acters and chorus blend their voices in the “Finale” of a very successful operetta. Opera... Radio Below___Mr. Harrington’s radio class presented many skits over our P.A.

Their efforts have helped the Viking athletic plant maintain its high spot of honor and respect in high school athletic circles throughout the Saginaw Valley and the state of Michigan. Guy V. Houston, athletic director, head football coach, and dean of boys, this year brought Northern its ninth undefeated football season since the school opened in 1928. Les Ehrbright, head basketball coach, developed a very good team which compiled a fine record despite some disappointing setbacks. Burt Smith, head baseball coach and football line coach, put a rugged, fighting squad on the field; be it baseball or football. The 1948 cross- country coach, Bill Cave, built Northern’s harriers into a fast running unit. Many times they placed 1, 2, 3. Carl Stelter, as reserve baseball coach, gave Northern fans some exciting moments as he floored a team that played the game with a dramatic touch; always working with a close margin. Mr. Stelter was also equipment manager. Ray Knight was the 1948 tennis coach and, although the team did not do as well as they would have liked. Mr. Knight was satisfied that the boys had really fought hard. Fred Trosko is the reserve baseball coach and football backfield coach; Tony Rasmovich is the football trainer; Narchie Karwaski coaches the junior varsity; Don Cope- land is a sophomore football coach; Gene Riccelli is busi- ness manager; and Charles Valleau shares the duties of the sophomore football squad with Mr. Copeland.

Weldon made the only score of the first half when he sneaked 11 yards through a maze of yellow shirts early in the first quarter. But after Detroit opened the third stanza with a quick TD to draw within one point, Northern took over. Luke took the hall on the end around and raced 40 yards to pay dirt, aided by Riley’s beautiful block. Weldon then scored from the four, and Jakeway circled right end for 20 yards and the final score. A pass from Billings intended for Leach (center) was broken up by Northern when Leroy Scott cuts to his right in an attempt to the ball took a freak bounce off the chest of Bob Stalker, 46, and then out of bounds. evade the Owosso tackier right on his tail Quarterback Cil Sabuco running with one of the two passes being intercepted Thanksgiving Day. This one. thrown by Billings and taken on the 45, was returned to the 10 yard line. NORTHERN 13—CENTRAL 13 For the first time in 21 years the annual Thanksgiving Day football game ended in a tie. The resulting score of 13-13 gave Northern and Central a divided double cham- pionship. They are co-holders of the city and Saginaw Valley titles. It also gave Northern its 9th undefeated football squad in 21 years. Northern probably would have won except for bad punting. Evans and Moore blocked a punt, as Howard Kehler tried to get Northern out of a hole in the first quarter. This led to the Indians’ first score. Bob Murdock pounded over from six inches out. Northern equalized right after the kick-off, which Ed Neal carried to the 39. On the next play Don Weldon swung around his own right end, got in the clear, and with the aid of a beautiful block by Ed Luke, ran down the sidelines for a 61 yard touchdown. In the second quarter Northern went out in front when Leroy Scott circled left end from 8 yards out, and just barely got by the corner flag. Weldon annexed the extra point. Late in the 4th period McDonald was swarmed as he attempted to punt, the ball was fumbled around, and Fox slipped as he grabbed it on the four yard line. From there Murdock went into the end zone standing up in two plays. Billings kick was good and the score was tied with less than two minutes remaining. After that Northern made a valiant effort, but time was against them, and Flint saw Northern and Central tie for the first time in 21 years. Weldon rambles. Don Weldon sweeps around his own right end. on his way for 61 yards, and Northern’s •first score against Central. This was the first play from scrimmage after the Indians had first scored. Left—All-State end Ed Luke takes the ball on the end-around and heads for pay-dirt against Detroit Catholic Central. A beautiful block by guard Bob Riley (left) cleared the way for Luke. Right—Weldon closes his eyes and grits his teeth as he crosses the goal line for a score against Bay City NORTHERN 28—ARTHUR HILL 20 Shaking runners loose for thrilling- touchdown runs of 97, 62 and 53 yards, the Scarlet and Gray bettered Arthur Hill 28-20, in a strictly offensive display. Don Weldon electrified the crowd in the first quarter by running an Arthur Hill kick of 97 yards to score after the Hills had taken a 6-0 lead. Weldon sprinted 53 yards to score in the third quarter, and caught a 22- yard pass front Gil Salntcco in the fourth stanza for his third TD of the night. Hal fback Wayne Hope fur- nished the other long scoring punch, a 62 yard jaunt over right tackle. Despite Northern’s spectacular vic- tory, the Vikings had trouble holding the Hills in check, and were out passed and out-rushed. NORTHERN 32—BAY CITY 0 The Vikings scored the first three times they had the ball, and then went on to breeze by hapless Bay City, 32-0. The win was Northern’s sixth in a row and the third straight in Valley play. Coach Houston used 29 players, and the spotlight was on the subs instead of the stars. Ellis Duckett got his chance to start in place of injured Bob Stalker, and he opened the scoring on the six play of the game with a 17 yard sprint. Burd- gick, smallest of the Viking scatbacks, scored on runs of 40 and 25 yards. Hope and Weldon also each scored once. JUNIOR VARSITY FOOTBALL TEAM. First row. left to right—Ed Shipley.

Junior Varsity Football This year’s crop of Junior Varsity football players was an outstanding group. With a fast, rugged line clearing the way for them, the fleet hackfield scored easily and often. The team’s offensive power was evenly distributed, showing excellent coaching. They held the opposition to a minimum of scoring, exhibiting their defensive skills. These players should play a leading part in making next year’s varsity squad a success. Sophomore Football The sophomore squad was made up mostly of gradu- ates of the Mott Foundation football program. The experience these bovs showed was outstanding for a group of first year high school players. The line was big, fast, and rugged, while the hackfield was made up of specialists in sj eed, passing, punting and trickery. Many of the boys showed enough promise to l e moved up to the Junior Varsity late in the season. SOPHOMORE FOOTBALL TEAM. First row. left to right—Gerald Ballard. Harold Clark. Fred Williams.

Varsity Basketball “I’ve waited a long time for a group of boys who would rather play basketball than eat.” These were Coach Les Ehrbright’s words when he spoke at one of the pep meet- ings last winter. Well, it sure seems as if he had them, because the team was always around the gym. The Var- sity cagers succeeded in winning the annual Motor City Tournament crowrn this year, as well as the City title and second place Saginaw Valley League honors. This year’s quintet possessed the will to win, but de- spite this, Port Huron defeated the Vikings by 3 points. It was a different story in the next few games, though. I Owosso and Pontiac, Northern’s first Saginaw’ Valley League opponents, submitted to Northern’s cagers. In the next three games, Lansing Sexton, Midland and Mus- kegon Heights were all dowmed by the Norsemen on their way to the championship. In their first contest with Sagi- naw Eastern, Northern was knocked out of first place in the Valley for the first time, when they were upset by the Trojans. In their first City series game, Northern came out on the long end. Arthur Hill’s Lumberjack aggregation and a Bay City Wolves’ quintet, paced by atmospheric Milt Mead, both defeated the Vikings in nip and tuck battles. I Pontiac, Owosso and Saginaw Eastern were the basket- eers’ next victims. Then the Hillites and Wolves came knocking at the I.M.A. doors and scored untimely vic- tories over the quintet. Central w?as made the goat in the Indians’ next encounter with Northern. The Vikings re- gained their prestige in City circles by downing the south- side cagers. This wfas Northern’s 7th City title in the eight years since Coach Ehrbright took over the head mentor’s reins. In an extra game to shape up the boys for the Region- al, a powerful Detroit Catholic Central squad thumped the Scarlet-Grey warriors. The Shamrocks were dead- eyes on the foul line. Northern dropped a close game to Arthur Hill, state finalists at the I.M.A. in the Regionals. The Arthur Hill five pulled a seven point lead out of the silk hat to defeat Northern. All in all, though. Northern completed a fairly suc- cessful Saginaw Valley record with 7 won and 5 lost. Out- side of league competition they won 3 and lost 2. Stan Tomezyk was elected captain of this year’s squad. Stash was also awarded All-Valley honors on the first string. Norv Burgett also w’on All-Valley honors on the second string team. heetz, (40) is up in the air about something; Sabuco (55) is waiting to find out what.

Below right—Fred Sheetz, always a standout, is well above t crowd as he grabs the ball. Northern’s two engagements with the Lumberjacks proved rather discourag- ing for the Vi kings. They lost both games. In the first contest the Norse- men had trouble with the buckets. They must have been wired because the ball wouldn’t go through the hoopj In the next outing the Scarlet-(irey warriors also came out on the short; end. Even though Paul Hinkin was bottled up, guard Ed Thompson broke] out on the high scorer’s list. The Yi- kings just couldn't keep up with the racehorse game the Hillites played. ' The Vikings tasted defeat at the hands of the Lumberjacks again in the regionals. Northern played a close game all the way and the finaf scored was 41-34. Arthur Hill enjoyed this, because this was only the second time they bad ever won on our home floor. Upper left—Two for Johnson. Right—Expressions of city champs. Lower right—Ball thieves. Even with the extra add- ed attraction of Hud Brote- beck, Evan’s Indians could not keep up with the prow- ess and skill the Vikings showed. The Scarlet and Grey cage quintet ran up and down the floor to dump in enough buckets to win the first game 43-35. Coach Khrbright substituted free- ly throughout the game. The second game was al- most a carbon copy of the first. The Vikings again won, by 12 points, the score being 48-36. The Norsemen scored from ail over the fi x r. Stash Tomczyk. Paul Snitko, Ed Durkacy. Hutch Rozyla, Norvel Burgett and Don Jahn saw most of the action. Almost everyone on the team was on the floor at some time or other.

Northern’s 1948-49 basketball squad com- pleted a fairly successful season. Coach Ehr- bright’s proteges won 10 and lost 7. The cagers lost 5 and won 7 on the regular Sagi- naw Valley League schedule. The only teams they bowed twice to were Saginaw Arthur Hill and the Bay City Wolves. The Scarlet and Grey court warriors took two champion- ships and one runners-up spot. They buzzed through the Motor City Tournament, and lift- ed the crown from the midst of the rest of the quintets. Then, in two consecutive meetings they romped over the boys on the far side of the river and added another title to the list. The Vikings also shared second spot in the Saginaw Valley with Bay City Central. Most of the clashes between the Norsemen and their numerous opponents were closely fought and hotly contested all through the game. The Vikings dropped a close one to the Lumberjacks in the Regionals. The small dif- ference of seven points gave the victory to the favored Hillites. Coach Stelter’s Reserves did somewhat bet- ter than the higher up Varsity, having won 12 and lost 1. They won the Valley reserve title easily and showed signs of a champion- ship team next year.

Carl Stelter had all the headaches and worries that accompanied this cham- pionship, because he is the reserve’s coach. The reserves had an unusually gf od season this year, as they accom- modated all the opposition by dumping them easily. The Junior Vikings won 12 and lost 1. an amazing record since only sophomores are used on the squad. The minor Norsemen started the season by thump- ing Port Huron. In the next two encounters they were up against Saginaw Valley cagers. They kept their slate clean by over-running Owosso and then Pontiac. A short rest was then given the much deserving squad while the Motor City Tournament was on. In their next outing the bucket boys downed a de- termined Saginaw Eastern quintet. After this, on January 11. they defeated Central’s reserve squad, and then trounced Arthur Hill and Bay City. The hardwood roamers pulled an encore by tripping up Pontiac and Owosso again. In their next game, the Norsemen met their only defeat of the season at the hands of Saginaw Eastern. In their remaining three contests the lx ys clinched the league title by thor- oughly drubbing Arthur Hill, Bay City, and Cen- tral. Coach Stelter deserves a lot of praise for shaping and molding such a swell squad. Northern’s 1948 Coif Team, left to right—Joe Jajey. Mgr.. Dwight McDonald. Jack McKmnis. Jim Warded, Peter Koscak.

Reserve Baseball The reserves had a fine year. They had a few disap- pointing setbacks, but managed to split with the Central Reserves. An 8-2 loss in their first game was revenged when they won the second by the same score, 8-2. Coach Trosko developed a quick team, whose fielding was exceptional. A well-rounded pitching staff kept opponents’ scores fairly low. All of these hoys had gained experience through the Mott Foundation Base- ball program.

Herb Straley (not pictured) was lost to the team early in the season due to an infected ankle. He was slated to he the number three man on the varsity. Dave Swanson was the outstanding player on the squad, winning most of his singles matches. Something new was started last year. Because of the large turnout for tennis a reserve team was started, and matches with county class B schools were sched- uled. The second team made formidable showings, although they were not vic- torious. One of the oddities of the 1948 season was the doubles match between Frank Kramer and Phil Read of Northern, and a crack Owosso doubles team. The Im vs kept each other blanked so long that the match was stopjxid in a scoreless tie. In tennis this is quite a feat. 1948 TRACK SQUAD.

Cross Country 1948 This year, Bill Cave, the new track coach, devel- oped the best squad in the state. Northern was un- beaten in regular season runnings. They took fifth at Ypsilanti in the state meet. One of the chief disap- pointments in 1948 was the Valley meet. The Vikings gave everything they had to take the crown in the first run ; but there was a mixup at the finish line and the meet had to he re-run. Central and Pontiac took first. Northern third, with Saginaw and Arthur Hill coming in last. Bruce Jacobs, who ran a very good third in the State meet, was the valley king, unde- feated in all valley competition. He set new track- records at Pontiac and Saginaw. Many of this year’s varsity will be back next season—Bill Harper, Don Fortune, Don Dillon, and Conrad Crane. Bruce Jacobs, Dave Moorhead, Mert Weaver, Norm Clifford and Don Puro all graduate in June. Left—Bruce Jacobs, the only boy to win the valley crown twice in one season.

Incidently the Hi-Y trounced the Faculty in an exciting rough and tumble game. Hie score was 30 to 20. Action was quick and rugged as the game switched from serious- ness to just plain horse-play.
