Each morning we hear a voice that starts us on our day. That voice, as you all know, belongs to our Superintendent, Mr. Henkel. After Mr. Henkel gives us pointers, he is very busy interviewing book men, conferring with the teachers, planning the budget, and meeting with the School Board. In addition he is the Senior Class Advisor. Yes, we acknowledge gratefully that he is the generalissimo ofthe school! MA'l' I HAVE AN EXCUSET' I wonder if you would help me? Please, may I have a permit to get to class? Whx1t is our assignment? Those are a few of the many questions with which our principal, Miss Rusch, is bombarded. She gives us our excuses, listens to all our problems, plans our schedules, and gives us good advice. She charts our course and applauds our efforts, and when our goal is attained, she is there to wish us well. High School and Miss Rusch are synonymous. We just couldnlt think of one without the other. HERE WE SEE MISS KLEIST an swering the telephone. She not only answers office calls, but helps us to complete our calls.

General Geography was a new subject opened up to you Sophs this year, and quite a group of you studied it with Mr. Handke. All of you know a spider from a centipede now. That's in Biology, of course, which all of you explored under the direction of Miss Jamieson. Those bugs and other creatures were fascinating, until you got too close to the real ones. There's no hunt and poke system for some of you anymore, Mr. Cors took care of the typing situation very efficiently. Even when you were about Eve assignments behind you managed to keep bravely clattering away. Quite a group of you boys can be found in the lvlanual Training department again. That's a familiar subject to you though, as you progress along from ash trays to bird houses with Mr. Naset guiding you. You didn't find the Soph year such a bad one, did you?

They certainly provided you with some amusing moments. Under Mrs. Moseley's kind guidance you found English Lit. delightful. Some of those quotations you so diligently learned will follow you a long time. Your interest in Wordsworth was held in part by the daffodils which Mrs. Moseley had ready for the occasion.

Those of you going on to school, along with other ambitious friends, took English. Had you ever realized before how complicated reading and writing can be though you've been doing them for twelve years? Miss Wright saw that English was never dull.

FOOTBALL HIGHLIGHTS ' MONROE-Strong on defense the Warriors ran up a total of 190 yards on the ground. The Portage line opened many holes for all the backs and gave the Cheesemaker runners a tough time- RICHLAND CENTER-At the half, Center was ahead 8'O. In the last half the Portage Warriors burned up the field and won the game 13f8-EDGERTON-The team was outweighed and out' played, but the Warriors kept on fighting. They recovered a couple of the six fumbles made by Edgerton-BARABOO-The Orange and Black had a bad night for Homecoming. During the game the boys had a brief moment of glory when they chalked up five first downs-REEDSBURG-P.H.S. failed to keep the Beavers from winning their homecoming. The crowd cheered the Beavers on. In the fourth quarter a completed pass for 28 yards made our prospects brighten, but the runner was pushed out of bounds- WISCONSIN DELLS-In spite of mud and mist the team played hard to win. Early in the game a blocked punt was good for two points. Later on in the second quarter, a pass was completed in the end Zone for another six points. The extra point was made on another pass.

NO OTHER CLASS can match these Sophomore smiles! Perhaps it's the car, for a car is one of the little frivolities which keep our friendships lively. Anyway, William, Frances. Bob, Delores, jane, Delroy, Pat and Nancy seem to be enjoying themselves. Perhaps they are thinking of the future time they have to make merry. At any rate, Seniors and juniors will be pleased to think of these sprightly Sophs as their successors. JOLLY IUNIORS, Darrell, Bill, jenny, jean, Frances, Ken and Nubs delight in joyce's service. They monopolize their classmates time in this favorite junior hangout, Graham's. Cokes and sodas keep friendships well lubricated if time spent at local soda fountains is any indication, and Junior friendships run the rails smoothly. Getting into the whirl of activities makes junior days fly by, happier and gayer than ever. Page 81 I HERE'S THE CLIMAX SCENE, where Limpy has a stirring debate with his soul. He has the dope on the real criminal, and his telling will mean freedom for Bob, Kate's brother. Kate puts on her Salvation Army uniform to help persuade Limpy to tell, while the rest sing Onward Christian Soldiers to get him in the mood.

Bob Batty is putting the finishing touches on the stairs while Bud Herpel and Ronald Eddy, the stage managers paint the flats. Ray Kaschinske, another finance boy, settles accounts with Betty Stewart, the publicity gal. 'THOSE DRAPERIES ARE SURE to be hung when Phil Whitney gets through with them, Marilyn Wanderer steadies that, oh, so shaky ladder while Joan Helmann and jo El Suda of the costume committee watch with approval. Something about the packages must make Duck Hennessy, prop chairman, smile, as Don Pfaff, Student Director, helps her. Page 82 THE 'TANGLED WEB of circumstance encircles Bob quickly, and Sergeant Kelly CBob Fullerl, is here to do his duty. Bob Uviarland Walkerj is confused and innocent but things look bad as he is found seeking the aid of his sister Kate. CHRISTMAS SHOPPING isn't always done in the Spring, but leave it to Minnie to do it that early! Shopping at any season of the year is exhausting, but Gladys turns away disgustedly when Minnie comes in, although Mar- cella LI3eth Morrisonl, Dorothy, and Peggy look on her with awe. THE SEMLROMANTIC ACTIVITIES OF HANK CEugene Hoffmanl, and Imogene CFannie Woodmanj, have Mrs. Skipeworth rather bewildered. Hank comes for the laundry, and Imogene gets it for him with a few remarks thrown in on the side. Imogene is taking no chances tonight, as the poker testifies. Ili ' 5' - raL.i,5L. 'THE COURSE OF TRUE LOVE is never smooth, as Kate and Ken find out. Due to the fact that they are rival reporters Kate thinks Ken is snooping.
