Krienbring, lr. E. Selinsky, Hr. R. Thompson To The Class of '49: Congratulations on your graduation. You have finished twelve years of grade and high school education, and now must face the problems of the outside world. Graduation this year will release many of you from the secluded role of Youth ---- and you are new expected Cand rightly soj to take on the role of adulthood. Your success will be completely dependent upon your ability to THINK. You have a stormy and turbulent road to follow. Your path, for the next number of years, will be strewn with problems that the graduating class of ten years ago did not have to face. You must THINK, and THINK well, to meet these problems of Communism, racial prejudice, and possible future war. And there will be other problems that will have to face in your role of young adulthood. lany of these will be of a personal nature ---- many of the will be such that you will be forced to draw definite and concrete conclusions ---- so, THINK! Your new world to conquer will be no easy foe. It will be your good common sense that will pull you out of many difficult spots. So, may we, the members of the Board of Education, wish you the best of good fortune for your new adventure in life. Remember, THINK! Sincerely yours, Board of Education Ray Thompson, President X to I E S Qggf ll x - .

Will any of us ever forget out first day in P.H.S.? We slunk into the assembly, shook when anyone talked to us, and gazed in awe at the seniors. They were so old and wise! Then came initiation! Didn't we feel ridi- culous with short skirts, pigtails and lipstick. September, nineteen-forty six--We are getting up in the world--sophomores now. V2 were doing the initiation!! Well, anyway, we got even by going twice as hard on the fol- lowing Frosh. lies Lundin was our class advisor for the second year. Our main events were several roller skating parties at the Frontenac. September, nineteen-forty seven--We are now part of the upper classmen! We worked like slaves on the Junior Prom, the sixteenth of April. We thought it was the best one ever. Don Johnson and Shirley Hein were the royal couple. September, nineteen-forty eight--At last, Seniors! It is the goal toward which we have been striving. We began our campaign to earn money as we muted to carry on the tradition of leaving a substantial sum to the school when we graduated. After Christmas we started on our annual. At the present moment it is driving the staff members and lliss Brown, our class advisor to the point of distraction. As soon as this annual goes to press we start the class play. lore work and worry. Then June third, nineteen-forty nine and graduation. High school maybe was work but it was fun and we enjoyed every min- ute of it. CLASS OFFICERS FOR FOUR YEARS. FROSH. SOPH. JR. SR. PRES. - l. Ersh - I. Storey - S. Rein - S. Bruemmsr V. PRES. - D.

Hrs. Walter Forsberg was their advisor. Even though five of our Sophmore classmates did not return as Juniors, we wel- oome the transfer of Evelyn Hurley from Davenport, Iowa and B111 Berth from Brillion, Wisconsin. A large number of our classmates are members of Band, Art Club, Drama Club, and various other organisations. The first memorable occasion for the Juniors was the Homecoming Dance. A large crowd of dancers enjoyed the event. An autumn setting, with corn shocks and pump- kins predominsting, was used for decoration in the gym. x 5 A 9 rs' 1? it f, , . xg 3 ., X, .4 ..- , 1 X I K Q L- 'wp I V, rj w gf' -,f W -Ei?

GBIDUAIIUI E E I 00 Brue mer-Hiller-Sponsors Sherwood-Schounard Schounard Thurow-Lemke-Hein-Coppens Whrneoke-Peterson-Bro1nrBarrstt Johnson le, the staff me bers of the 1949 Peshcocan, on behalf of the Senior Class, wish to present this annual to you as our final class project before leav- ing high school. Since we graduate in 1949 ourlthoughts travel back one hundred years to the gold miners of 1849, and we may compare ourselves to them. They found their wealth in the ground after going after it with pick, shovel, and physical effort. We were miners in a different sense: we searched through textbooks for knowledge, our wealth, and found it with mental effort. In looking over past annuals we noticed that they were based upon such impor- tant themes as the Wisconsin Centennial, Peshtigo High School's golden jubilee celebration, and the end of lorld War ll. Although we had no such spectacular events to celebrate, we are not envious: we did have the privilege of four calm and enjoyable years of high school to prepare us for our future careers. We wish to thank Kiss Brown for her guidance and help in making this Annual possible, and the school board, our spo sors, and lr. Baker for their co- operation and support. le are grateful to Irs. Houlette for supervising the art work and to Ken Archambault for the drawing he made. Our special thanks go to the faculty for their understanding and leadership during our four years of high school. 5 KK XX KL 0 i W sh I 'A - - , I' ' . 5, 9 2-in nfff 'gy , .'e Jw ' H1 -.. - . , - .- , -- : 1 Lt n V- '14, W f.,v ,- ., 1 'f. . ,v .-',',- I' px- 1 jg' , ,t,j' ',, . t-:Y 11' ax L E1 ' ' ', ,-- , ., .

They showed amazing ability in playing the highly favored Marinette Marines to an overtime tilt, and staged one of the most amazing comebacks in the history of the school by beating Lourdes 45-42 after trailing 36-52 at the end of the third quarter. The other games of the season were less spectacular. The team played Hoff and on' ball to end the season with a record of 7 wins and 9 losses. At the District Tournament in Marinette the team won their open- ing gums against Niagara 38-37. In the second game they gave Harinette stiff opposition, being ahead at the half and during most of the third quarter. However, the last quarter proved too fast for the Bulldogs, and larinette won, 45-39. The graduating s niors ares Foster, Bruemmer, Bundy, Charnesky, D. Johnson, and Warnecke.

It was organized in the fall of '48 to provide an opportunity for continued development of those interests. An effort was made to meet individual aptitudes, and correlation was encouraged. Members found their art experiences helpful in pre- paring charts, booklets, and designs for A credits in other subjects. Of special interest were lary Agnes Anderson's water color study of our Pacific shore line: Alice Seefeldt's home designs in black and white: llary Lou Behnke's painted necktiesg Darlene Brovm's sketches of the four eras of economic developmmtg Diane Carlson's crayon study of a cottage in the snow Kathy Barrett's fashion designsg and Kenneth Archambault, and Robert Harperls paintings. Club officers were Darlene Brown, president, and Amy Birkett, secretary. E-MMEMEA QXQ' Standings Baasl, Brabender, Anderson, Storey, Kelly, Seefeldt Seated x Armstrong, Miller, Sohmidke, Ames Student interest in forensic work was on the increase this year. A group of eleven students participated in local preliminary contests this year. Winners were Bill Schmidtke, Constance Brabender, Sally Baasl, Shirley Storey, Alice Seefeldt, and Joyce Armstrong. This group went to Lena for the League contest at which Sally Haasl and Constance Brabender received 'A' ratings in Extemporaneous Reading and Humorous Declamation, respectively. At the District contest in Appleton, in which these girls participated, Sally Haasl again received an A' rating, which makes her eligible for the State contest held at Madison on April 23. This is the second A in the history of forensics in Peshtigo. Since most of the participants in this contest were underclassmen, prospects for an even more successful season next year are very good. .- A club that is growing more popular every year is the Hilite Club. Meeting twice a month, its thirty-five members discuss the latest drama news, techniques, and plays. Included among the club's activities was the annual basketball pencil sale, several plays, one of which was presented for the P.T.A., and a few parties.
