We have tried to portray life in the classroom, on the campus, on the athletic field, and in the dormitory. We wish to thank all those who have made this yearbook a success. We, the Senior Class of 1956, dedicate this Sprinter to Professor Kirst, who has been our ad- visor in the production of this yearbook. He has devoted himself to the work in the Lord's King- dom by assisting in the preparation of students for the ministry. May the Lord bless and aid him in the future. PM E. A.

Sporting a new nickname, the Hornets, our boys went out to prove that they could produce the sting usually associated with the name. Coach Malchow's first basketball team had a very impressive win-Ioss record. The Hor- nets made a fast start, receiving their first set- back by Racine. Another winning streak began, this time stopped by Mil. Luth. The season's highpoint came with the second Racine game. After that thrilling victory, everything else was anticlimactic. Teischow, J.
