During the freshman year Janes Jchaan moved to wisconsin. Gur sophomore year was spent by serving at basketball games, being host at the Uelentine Party, and helping in mi- nor Ways with the Jr.-Sr. play. Our third year of high school was the busiest. That year we published the yearbook were members of the school pager staff, assisted the seniors by acting in their play, an were host at the Jr.-Sr. banquet. Also during the EDU256 of this year we were left with a cliss of three as Dolores Lverts left us. 1951-1952 saw us as seniors. This was our year to ini- tiate the freshmen and also to present the class play. We also served as Literary officers for the first semester. Our high school days came to a close with Baccelaureate and Commencement excerises. The officers for the year were as follows: President. . . . . . . . . . . . .Delores Kubetzke SeC'8C Treasv 9 o 0 ova o 4 s D s u Q -Dale Milken Student Council. . . . . . . . . .

A very strange thing happens when Delores gets into the car. She picks up a book that Dale had left lying on the car seat and eXclaimes5 nAre you reading THIS! Hhhy yes,H Dale answered, vlfve read many books by that author, and I think she is just wonderfulfn Then Delores began to blush as she said,HI'd like to have you meet, Kim Smith, that's my pen name and thanks for the compliment.W They were still discussing this when they arrived at the hotel where they were to have dinner. While eating dinner they began talking about the good times they had had at P.P.A. They WSFG just T6miniCiHS about the time the boys had thrown Delores into the creek, when the hotel manager, who seemed to have overheard their conversation, interrupted them by saying, NExcuse me for eavesdropping, but when I heard you mention PePaAa.I ------- Why it's my Nfellow boobyn, Harm Stykeliag Hale excitedy in- terupted him, They spent the evening at Harm's home talking about their good times.

Girls go to Rockford to visit Rockford College and the Rockford Horn- ing Stare New fad--boys Wear, lipstick so the girls don't wear any and therefore the 531-ls look half dead. Girls screams echo across campus as boys innocently open stage door during a play practice. The girls 'who are taking shorthand are disappionted to learn that Mrs. Buttel can't give them credit for short- hand. They will continue to take it for no credit. The students clean the gym so that there isn't too much for the women to clean. The women from the Silver Creek Church came to clean up for the dinner on Monday of the Freeport Rotary Club. Rotary Club dinner. Everybody's happy, we were treated to a piece of pie and some chicken. The women find mice kitchen cupboards. There are mice in the gym kitchen but they haven't got a chance.

Several girls bring suckers into assembly but teacher's pet, Ilene Suttman, is asked to leave her refreshments home from now on 0 No school today because of blocked roads. It's a good thing we have vacations like these---it gives the kids a chance to catch up on those LONG assignments. First casualty of the school year. Ida broke her nose while playing basketball. Ida Mae is back in school. Kay Borchers writes letter to President Truman and asks for 380,000 to help rebuild P.P.A. Literary in the evening. No school because of Armistice Day. The students are all to bring a newspaper clipping about Armistice Day to school to- morrow. Cheerleaders elected and magazine drive begins. Ida Jacobs, Kay Borchers and Edith Stykel are the cheerleaders. It's too bad somebody doesn't like nfried micen, because Margie and Phyllis have caught 15 in the kitchen and they'd be only too glad to give them to someone. Mm. Saucerman seems to be a mind-reader. He told us the way we came in school in the morning seemed as if we thought, nwell, I'm here--now what do I do?U In the evening the Jr. and sr. had their first play practice in the gym. What about it cast, do you think you'll know your parts by the 14th and l5th of December? Strange noises were heard during the noon hour. It was thought at first that cats had entered the school, but then it was discovered to be a class in singing under the direc- tion of Miss Kubatzke. Mrs. Buttel tells her Shorthand class about a dream in which the tables were turned and she was a student instead of a teacher. Must have been a nightmare. Don't eat too much turkey during vacation kids. Jr. and sr. remember to have that first act learned when you come back. - 25 THANKSGIVING VACATION. W The Archive - November continuedz N 26 Delores and Phyllis seem to be making up for the time th lost during vacation. They spent the evening in school Wu ing on the Pleasant Prairie Highlights. 27 Lucille Haan is not in school today. Maybe she is worryi about the paper too much. 28 There seemed to be a little confusion over one of the ston for our paper. The stencil was put on and taken off thr times and finally decided it was best not to publish it. 29 HOTICE-- The paper is put out one day ear1y.- The shock mu: have been too much for Mrs, Buttel since she left class sn 30 LeRoy just canft seem to stay away from Ilene, he was ba already last night.

Guess Miss Mitcheltree couldn't resist, she wasn't at the rehearsal. Lucille Haan received 310 as the winner of the German Valley Bulletin contest. Other prizes were given to Jack Ross, Donna Willemssen and Phyllis L. Hayunga. Edith Stykel shows her talent when she brings her guitar to school. She was envied by all the girls because of the won- derful way she could yodel. Did anyone hear music on the bus tonight? It was only the portable radio of Dale Wilken. He received it for selling the most subscriptions during the agazine drive. Toots and Ilene made good use out of their history class, they spent it in sleeping. When the shorthand class walked into their room they thought it had been hit with a hail storm, but found it to be only tangerine seeds that Kay Borchers didn't know where to put. Everyone in the play cast must have their costumes together by tonight because it's the first dress rehearsal. The kids in the play are getting worn out from play practice every night.
