Uron acquainting ourselves with our new environment, we settled down to become initiated. After this experience everyone recornized us as nleaaln freshman. Ne soon overcame our bashfulness and snonsored a return Dsrty which save us an opportunity to show our ability as entertainers. We started our Sophomore year with much enthusiasm. Eight had left our vroup and three new students had ioined making our membership 32. As Juniors our resoonsibilities deepened. We then had the same number although a few students had left and a few more had been added. The greatest social event of the year, the Prom, was our making. The theme selected was NThe Little Dutch Milln. Frank Samek reigned as king. This year began with 29 members. During the year Dolores Strohkirch and Anita Schafer left us. We put our greatest efforts into making a success of the Clover Leaf and the first volume of the Cloverbud. We have spent four happy years here in the O.H.S. taking part in many extra-cirricular activities. We regret to leave even though we are anxious fcr Wraduation.

The second game of the season and first conference tilt found Owen at Neillsville where the Eagles had a little trouble try- ing to stpp the big and more experienced team as the score of this game was 19-O. Owen got back into the win column by taking a thriller from ek A. EI' the Cadott team. Because the score was l3-O at the beginning of the -V last quarter, mostxbf the Owen fans went home only to miss themmo t important part of the game. With six minutes left to play, Owen took to the air, and as a result the game ended with Owen on top lL-13. The Eagles were downed again by the revenge seeking Thorp team Chalking up a score of 32-O. Marshfield came to Owen with a small and fast team but not fast and tricky enough to beat Owen. The final score.was 12-O. The boys ran into a little trouble when they went to Cornell where the first half didn't show much action, but as the second half came around, the Cornell boys had to fight hard. Owen marched right down ghe field for a touchdown, bringing the final score Cornell 18, Owen . Harold Laube Tackle Captain Senior Harold was Owen's most valuable player in the line. Will be missed next year. Norbert Lipprandt Halfback Junior The most accurate passer on the team, showed his ability against Cadott. Don Southworth Center Senior Don played two roles ----- center and defensive end. Played both with courage and sincerity. Ken Roohr Guard Senior A steady agressive player. He filled the guard position very capably. ' Pete Devine Halfback Senior Burt's pass receiver on the team. Also a good runner and leader of plays. He called the signals this year. George Behringer Guard Senior He is a small man but you could depend on him for a steady game. Cliff Smith End Senior A tall rangy boy who played his best on offense. Will be missed next year. ' Gerald Behringer Tackle Senior A heady player all the time. He wasn't to be fooled verv often. Frank Samek Guard Senior Frank's ability was in the fact that he could break through the line and block a punt or tie each game. Keith Welker Quarterback Senior It took him four years to make a touchdown, but it wasn't be- cause he lacked the ability. Alex Nowak Fullback Junior Al's first year at football showed enough power and ability to earn the regular fullback position. George Southworth Tackle Junior George has the spirit, ability, andstamina to be a winner. Jerry Pueschner End Sophomore A good player who came from Medford and showed Owen that he had what it takes to make the team. Paul Stasek End Fullback Junior Paul did double duty at end and a very good job at fullback. Will be improved more next year. Les Wagner Guard Sophomore His enthusiasm along with ability and determination will make him a star someday. Dick Laube Quarterback Sophomore Only a sophomore, Dick showed plenty of drive and was one of 0wen's best tacklers.

The theme for the prom, WThe Little Old Milln, was portrayed by a Dutch scene with blue and white as the color scheme. On the south wall were the words to the song, while on the opposite wall there was a large Dutch boy and girl sitting on a hill, where a pair of wooden shoes and tulips formed the background. Two large baskets of assorted colored tulips were placed beside the trelis, which formed an arch over the doorway. The wishing well and punch table stood on either side of the stage, where black silhouettes on silver paper were used as decorations.
