P. A. and commenced their long journey through high school. The six members of the future class of 1950 were Lois Borchers, Ruby Fuls, Betty Stykel, Clara Kampman, Boyd Fricke, and John Rust. After being prop- erly initiated by the class of 1947, the class of 1950 became full fledged members of P.P.A. Now this is the only class in school who remember Professor Bosch be- cause 1946-1947 was the last school year in which Pro- fessor Bosch was Principal. Then Setember 1947 arrived the class acquired two new members, Roger Krayenborg and Louise Roos. Rev. Roos also was the new principal. Other teachers were Rev. Reeverts, Prof. Waalkes, Prof. Kortemeir, and Prof. 0eth. Being Sophomores the class now was more accustomed to high school life, That year they gponered a basket social and served lunch at Basketball games. During the course of the year Roger Krayenborg dropped out and left the class with seven members. As Juniors in 1948-1949, this class had a very eventful year. Clara Kampman entered the senior class, being a three year student, which left six students in this class of 1950. In December 1947, the Juniors helped the Seniors of the year to present the play NGirl Shyn. This class of 1949 edited an annual, HThe Archiven, sponsered a hayride, entertained the class of 1949 at a banquet and were active in many other school functions. During this year Basketball games were a popular entertainment at P. P. A. Teachers this year included Rev. Roos, Principal: Miss Shew, Rev. Reeverts, and Prof. Oeth. The final lap of the journey through high school of the class of 1950 began in September 1949. It was in this year that the class reached its greatest number. Members of the class now included Ruby Fuls, Lois Borchers, Betty Stykel, Louise Roos, John Rust, Boyd Fricke, Mary Siemens and Shirley Janssen, the latter two coming from Leaf River High School and Paul Smith who came from Pecatonica High School. There's the class of 1950-now seniors-with nine members, but short- ly after school started, Paul Smith moved to Iowa, leaving only eight members. At the beginning of the year these seniors had the privilege of initiating the thirteen freshies. w 'z A. .

A1- though the year isn't over yet, we hope to have a skip day, graduation exercises and other exciting privileges of seniors. After all these things have been said and done, the cless agree that four years did seem to go by very fest end when next September rolls around it will seem kind of funny not to have to go to high school any more.

P. A. Another couple on board is Kr. Q hrs. Boyd George Fricke, Boyd has reccntly been appearing on television as a famous Hawaiian singer. He met his wife the former Lois Lavonne Borchers, on television where she was noted for her comical performances. As you look through this Hflying saucerd you can't help noticing two well dressed elderly ladies in the back seat amasing themselves by looking at magazines and tell- ing each other hon much they enjoy being single rather then married. The one sitting by the window is Louise Ruth Roos, rho is speaking to her business associate, Lary Alice biemens, the owner of Hsiemens Sizzle and sink Shopn. Louise is the propietor of HRoos's Rabbit Ranchn. These two have close contact with each other since they live in the same town. The Steuardess on the saucer is the popular, tall, slender Ruby Ann Fuls. she got this job hoping some day to meet her dideald man. 0n our may home the pilot goes in for a landing on the little island of Pele: to pick up Capt. John5Thomas Rust and his monkey who tere ship wrecked earlier in the year and maroonned there. John's wife Shirley buzanne Janssen is eagerly awaiting him at the airport. While her husband is gone on his voyages hrs. Rust is always kept busy running aiter their ten little Red heads. During the ilight it tis discovered that all the passengers and the pilot were classmates at P.P.A. Way back in l950. They decided that they would have a re- union there in 2000 A.D., Since that would be the 50th year since their graduation. , ..,. ,, r 'm w .M x' --The Archive-- fl msc xyjll mmf ,JJ f ..,..J We, the members of the class of 1950, being of sound mind and in possession of all our mental fac- ulties, do hereby declare this to be our last will and testament.

Those who entered were Loda Kanus, Laura Eckhoff, John Fricke, Robert Flock, John DeHaan, Harold Wicke and Geraldine Juergens. After these students came to school for a- round two weeks, the seniors showed their appreciation to the freshies by giving them a Hfun-psckedn initia- tion. This is something which is really fun for the freshman, but even more fun for the seniors. During the year the class took part in the school activities. A while after the school had started we lost one member from Iowa, who was Harold Licke. The Custom of the Freshman Class to give the Halloween Party was followed In February the class held a Basket social for the public which was well attended. After the school picnic was held at Lowell Park, we all appeared at the Baccalaureate and Commencement exercises and thus ended our first year of high school at Pleasant Prairie Academy. The following fall we all came back as Sophmores all the same, except not quite as green this time. We lost one member who was John DeHasn. He moved to Wis- consin. This now left our class with only five stu- dents. The tradition of the Sophmore Class is to serve at the basketball games and give the Valentine Party. The five of us came back for the last two years of training in september of 1949. This is the year of the getting of the Class-rings, which were received the first part of November, 1949. The Juniors also worked hard to publish the annual, HThe Erchiven. an op- portunity is also given to the Junior to sponsor the Junior-Senior Banquet. It is held a short time before school lets out. we all hope to return as Seniors next fall if all goes well. Class officers were elected at the begin- ning of the year.

For activity we gave the Halloween party. The en- tertainment at this party was a scavenger hunt, con- tests, and etc. Doughnuts and cider were served for refreshment. he were permitted to serve at basket-ball games to make money. Jimmy DeHaan moved to tisconsin and left just the four of us to struggle through the hardships of fthe first year in high school. And thus ended our lowly freshmen year. On September 8, l949 we came back to the Acad- emy as Sophomores. Therefore it wasn't as hard because we had more experience and confidence. We met the new faculty with a little more poise and looked forward on the coming year with a little less fear. This year is a lot like last year. he still slide along as easily as we can in daily lessons and worry as much as ever when test time comes. Our source of mak- ing money is still serving at basket ball games. The sophomore class helped the seniors with the play this year by prompting and taking care of tickets and programs. I At this writing we have not yet given a party but as it is the duty of the Sophomore class to ,give the Valentine Party we Will be hosts'and hostesses at that. We all hope to be back here next year as ' Juniors. Yes, back here at the.Pleasant Prairie Academy where we get in addition to ordinary subjects, the training which is so important to make this world a happy place to live in, which enables us to live Christian lives.

Club. was held Saturday October l, 1949, on the P.P.A. Campus and in the Gymnasium. In the morning all hands of the 250 boys were very busy building stands, lining up displays, and helping to check in entries to be judged. By 10:30 all entries were in and displayed and the concessions were opened. In the afternoon there was a program held in the Gymnasium and free movies' were also shown. From that time on everyone could look at all exibits. About sup- per time things were very quiet. In the evening there was another program and more free movies. As the eve- ning passed on it became quiet once more and the boys were again busy taking things down. This ended a very eventful day and showed much work done on the part of the Ag. Club members. pe wish to thank Prof. Oeth for arranging everything.

The play given was a fast moving farce inf 3: acts The story of the play takes place in Crestdale, an Eastern Iountain resortu Crestdale, formerly occupied by Dr. oee, who used it as a sanitarium for people who suffer- ed from nervous ailments. Dr. See closes the place up and sells it and it is idle for a year when Liss Helene shelton buys it and moves in. She becomes restless and decides to go to Europe, so she places the house in the hands of a real estate agent, Miss Bea Wise, leaves a colored caretaker in charge and starts off on her Buropeon junt. Miss aise, anxious to sell Crestdale, runs into a family who tell her they are in the market to buy a house. she offers to allow them to live at Crestdale for one week free oQa,charge so that they can Judge of its merits. And whofio you think moves in? Your right the first time, The Nutt Family! P. Nutt, tue head of the house, is a doctor who is tired of practicing medicine and wants to roam. Keta Hutt, his aife, raises a pet snake. Hall Hutt, their son, is fascinated by fish and is experimenting with them, and last but not least is Ima Hutt their charming daughter. Io sooner are the Hutts settled at Crestdale than Several Of Dr. See's former patients arrive and then the battle of wits begins and fun runs rampant. Larry Smart falls in love with Ima Nutt and thinks she is a real nut. He is in a peck of trouble and in order to remain near the girl he fancies, he pretends that he is a nut. Engaged to a girl to whom he has never seen and trying to escape her, he is confronted with a gi-l who claims to be his wife and has fallen in love with a girl whom he has reason to believe is a patient at the santarium! Isn't that gay? There are also two black- face ,parts in the play, Orestus and Cerisef who bring the house down everytime they appear, - Dr. P.

It seems like everybody learned to work these days.. Thursday morning the girls came to school with rakes and the boys brought tractors and trucks. Every- one worked hard by the looks of the campus. At three o'clock the students and faculty enjoyed a couple of hot dogs and pop. On Friday some of the students came prepared to work but there were some not feeling too active after all that excerise from raking. But after awhile every- one got in the swing. The girls cleaned the school and the boys finished up outside by hauling some trees and brush out to a ditch. The students ate their dinners in the field near the ditch. Did the girls have fun riding on the trucks? BY all means it isnft every day you get a day off of studying. I am sure some of us look forward to doing it again next year. EE5mE?T, if?

T, period. The girls had P. T. every Tues., Thur., and sometimes on Friday. It was di- rected by Liss Strommen and Hr, Herbert Borchers who gave some of his time to direct the girls in basketball In the beginning cf the year and in the spring on nice sunny days the girls played baseball. During the winter months we played basketball. On the 7th of February we had a girls basketball game. It seemed to be lots of fun for everyone. C HEEK .LEADE KS At the beginning of the year, the student body elected three girls as Cheerleaders. They were: Delores Kubatzke, Geralding Juergens, Laura Eckhoff. They also elected two substitute Cheerleaders who were: Shirley Janssen and Mildred Pals. They were to cheer when the other girls couldn't come. The Basket ball games were very much livened up by their yells. wx 'x Q X X 1? E 64.4 'X I vnjl L , 5, ke A ' .

However with pen in hand and a few good re- ferences in front of me, I begin my assignment. Let us first define our subject. Scientifically, women is defined as the female of the' species Homo- sapiens belonging to the phylum Mammalia of the animal Kingdom. Such a definition probably means little to most of us, so let us take a more simple definition. Women are the better half of every marriage partnership Caccording to themb, the mother of every family, the queen of every household. Now that we have the subject adequately defined, let consider some inportant facts concerning women. s all the eo le born each year ap roximately gift? percent arepwogen. AD even more astonishing fact is that of the total number of persons married each year, exactly fifty percent are women. 'Women arezpny- sically weaker than men, however, statistics show they mature two to three years younger and live about three years longerg They constantly add to the confusion of the modern age by wanting to assume a 'position in po- litics, industry, etc., equal to that of men, but at the same time expect men to bow to them, open doors for them, and to give up their seats in a publiccconveyence for them. The age old problem of which is the Nweaker sexn remains unsolved. The relative intelligence of men and women has long been a subject of bitter dispute. The study of Psychology gives the answer to this question by stating that here is very little difference in the intelligence of men and women, however, men are more efficient in some fields of work and women in others. In closing let me say that in spite of their mis- givings, women have many virtues and are nice to have around when there is a meal to be prepared or a button to be sewed on. I might ever1'gp so far as to say that the future of men depends upon them. Clarence L. Oeth V, ,,,XX,y +,4r vPJ ww u QQF5 AA, 4 9 FF X' ,: W ,Hi m M ., X, N 1. 31 -JG ws, fi' X ' MX X.

GN M E N Man is a creature, and that fact is stated in the encyclopedia where it says Hhan is the most remarkable of all the creatures that live on the earthu, with the exception of women of course. He is the only living thing able to use large numbers of plants and animals for his own benefitc Too had he hasn't been able to add women to his list of conquests, Kan may harness nature, but he is not free from all the laws which govern living things. Ken's natural life span is often spoken of as being three score years and ten- About one-fifth is spent in growing up. I fhave often had cause to wonder ii some menC?D will ever grow up? That question could and is the subject of a lot of discussion. In many ways man difiers from Qnimals, but there are certain resemblances too. rergoge thing, man has Greater brain C8DJCity. CSlightly larger than that of 8 mouse.D He can reason, plan, and express ideas dxllan guage. The song of a bird is much more pleasant to the ear, but of course we can't understand the bird's ,song. Man is able to adapt himself to his climate and sur- roundings. He is also capable of changing his surround- ings to meet his needs. Of course a woman is always capable of changing her suroundings to suit her famcy, but that's a Womans' privilege. Besides,men just love to move furniture all the time and to fix up the house to suit a woman's taste. Man's eyesight is better than that of most animals especially if there is a pretty girl in sight. In spite of all man's success in adapting himself to his environment, he is still perched on an uneasy throne. He must wage-constant warfare against his nat- ural enemies and must be on guard against women. I must confess though that hard as it is to get a- long with men, it certainly would be a lot harder to get along without them. In fact, when you get right down to it, men really are pretty nice.
