R Queen Bette Hutchison, King Ivan Gibbs reign at Junior Prom, April 26 In the fall of 1943, a group of very meek and shy ug1'CCl1ll01'llS,, started on their high school career. Since that day, which now seems so very long ago, tl1e class of '47 has proved itself duly worthy of the many honors it has received With the pep and fiery spirit, characteristic of the first two years, this group entered upon the threshold of their Junior year. To lead them, the class chose Ivan Gibbs as its President and Prom King. Eldre Beuthin and Jacqueline Dohse acted as Vice-President and Secretary- Treasurer respectively. The menibcrs of the class showed their dramatic ability by successfully presenting their class play MSpring Green. They were well represented in athletics, many of the sportsmen meriting letters. The elafss of '47 eagerly awaits the responsibility of leadership of the school, and feels perfectly confident that they will ably uphold. the highest standards of PHS. -2 6... gsm' wang zu mn -Mme. :av naw x wfgifmgwi mam ss ag and mzm ww ww V: ggw www E ,Wmngw My ,W QE H mmmgf v-an E N 1 uw Ni rx Qaev Bm ww gf QELW-Wim .' gfgnmnm LQ S-Qgnxgm mga E 355 ms Bm awww L 5 ,nge gwa I Bm uf-uns?

To further interest in the study of Latin, the Latin Club was organized with Mr. Paul Lutzke, Latin instructor, ass advisor. All students who had one year of Latin were eligible to join. The officers for this year were lst Consul fPresidentl James Bittner, 2nd Consul lVice- Preeidentl Keith Betzg lst Scribe iSecretaryj Tina Boucher. Besides singing Christmas carols in Latin,and giving reports of various Roman holidays, the club prepared a feast of the Saturnalia in true Roman style. Members of the French class are convinced of the great value which the study of this language offers. Now that many of the soldiers who were in France are home and telling of the country, a renewed desire to learn the French language has arisen. Because our own city, Prairie du Chien, was largely settled by Frenchmen is sufficient reason why every boy and girl should he interested in that language. Since the beginning of the second semester of 194-6, the Prairie du Chien High School has offered French. The aim of all French students is to be able to translate from French to En- glish and in time to converse and write in French. A combination of the direct and indirect method is used by the instructor, Mrs. Mildred Kieser. ...3 8... L 4 H sn- Q Top Row-Viola SCl1NVOTlll, llill'llll!ll Harwood.

Mathematics is one of the largest and busiest, as well as the most interesting departments in , Prairie High. Students of to-day are realizing :ji the fact that Mathematics is fundamental to all s sf scientific knowledge and progress. Elementary and Advanced Algebra, Plane and Solid Geometry, and fllrigonometry are offered to PHS students. Algebra, the foundation of all higher Mathematics, is a branch which teaches the use of literal and negative num- bers as well as ordinary numbers. This is a re- quired subject for second year students. MISS VIOLET DOHSE Geometry, a Greek word meaning measure- ment of the earth , deals with the comparison and measurement of lines, angles, surfaces and Mathematics- solids, with much attention given to the de- velopment of adequate techniques of logical reasoning. This course is generally studied in the ,lunior year. M Trigonometry is of Senior standing. Wiili the use of logarithms and the slide rule, many practical problems in forces, surveying and navig:21Ii0'1 are solved. The Mathematics Department is under the expert guiflance of Miss Violet Dohse, who gives to her students an abiding interest in Matliematics and the knowledge that Mathematics is man's most precise tool of inquiry and his soundest device for finding sane answers to his problems. -40- 1 no ,...- ,W d,,,..,.... .1 . z. 1 Lil :-,xg env'-. f . i 'g-4,3L1m4. l .'i1 ', 2' ,.g-'-P-Z..

Our news- papers, newsrcels, and radio programs all 'tell of the need of chemical materials in war, in our diet, in medicine, and in the production of con- veniences and luxuries. We know that if the civilization we enjoy is to survive, we need all the help science can give us. MR. HAROLD RASMUSSEN General Science, which is study of forces and composition of the earth is taught by Mr. Harold Rasmussen, and is a Freshman subject. The study of Biology, which ie the science of .living things, enables a student to meet changes which may occur in our way of living. Bi- ology is a Sophomore subject and is taught by Mrs. Kathleen Ackerlund. World War ll, with its atomic bomb, its synthetic rubber and development of plastics, brought to the world a realization of the value of Physics and Chemistry. Courses in both of these important sciences are OH-81'8fl to Prairie students. The classes are taught by Mr. Harold Rasmussen. '-41- . E. . WE B .. 5 . .- H 1- , ...Mi-Ham SUPT. B. A. KENNEDY MR.

Much of the class time was devoted to present day problems. ln the Amer- ican History class, a thorough study of W0l'lCl Wai' II Conlerenem, the United Nations Charter, and other international treatise and agreements was made. In connection with the study of the Declaration of In- dependence and the Constitution of the United States, MR. PAUL LUTZKE movies were shown that told of the making of these famous documents. The movies proved val- uable in helping students to understand and appreciate the American heritage as handed down to us by our forefathers. Another interesting feature of the History classes was the study of the history of Prairie du Chien as it corresponded with other dates in American History. Many new books were added to the library to supplement the history texts. -4a- y Stage Crew Top Row- Donald Rehm, John Lee h ni r. Bottom Row-Gilbert Daly, Mr. Harold Rasmussen, Jack Von Ituden.

As a climax to 'many weeks of practice and preparation, a contest was held here April 8, when Prairie played hoist to Boscobel. The persons receiving an A rating were eligible to compete ill the district contest at Platteville April 22. The contestants who merited this privilege were James Bittner, Victory Speaking, Normalee Cook, Serious Declamatoryg Lyndon Sawvell, Oratory, and Margaret Yvet- zel, Humerous Declamatory. These contestants all received B ratings at Platteville. Contestants who participated in the league meet at Prairie were: Harry Borne, Oratoryg Eugene LaPointe, Victory Speaking, Mary Ellen Pake and Ruth Schreiner, Extemporaneous Readingg Anita Snyder, Humorous Declamatoryg and Keith Betz, Extemporaneous Speaking. Forensics were directed by Mr. Rasmussen, who was assisted hy Mr. Burch, Miss Conway, lVIrs. Linzenmeyer, and Mr. Lutzke. Those people who participated in Forensics but who were not contestants in either the league orvdistrict meet were: Carmen Harwood, Lois Zeeh, Dorothy Desllocher, Edith Ahrens, Mary Gillingham, and Hazel Martin, Serious Declamatoryg .loan Waillwrigllt, Doris Fisher, and Ivan Gibbffs, HllH101'0US Declamatorya Emil Madonna Hill, Extemporaneous Reading. The stage crew, consisting of Donald Rehm, Gilbert Daly, John Forbes, john Lechnir, and Sherwood Matti, and under the supervision of Mr, Rasmussen, prepared the stage for the dramatic and musical productions of the year. The job of a stage crewman is not an easy one, and yet it receives little praise or appreciation. The stage crew this year did excellent work, and although they received no reward, they have the assurance that their job was a job well done. .-44.. u Tl . '.fy.',,-.:,,,-2 6' ' HL. .. 1 -.

The purpose of this subject is to acquaint students with business procedure and to give them an idea of what career or vocation they lnigbt want to follow. Associated with Business Training is an advanced class in Bookkeeping for Seniors. In this class, also taught by Miss Hagman, there are 13 members, all of whom are girls. Bookkeeping is more necessary in the world now than ever before because the govg MISS VAN1TA HAGMAN ernment demands that we know how to give an exact record of our earnings in a systematic manner. ln the Junior and Senior shorthand classes, the students learn the fundalnentals of short- hand and practice it by taking dictation and trniiserbing letters.

Mixed Chorus The first part of this school year was without any vocal instruction. Therefore, when Mr. Hinkley joined our teaching staff he was met hy an enthusiastic group of students. From the boys' and girlss' chor- MR' NORMAN HINKLEY uses representatives from the various sections were chosen. An important fact concerning all of the vocal groups this year has been the many new members. Both senior and junior students who have never in- terested themselves in vocal work did participate in these choruses. New vocal selections have made their appearance on all programs. A great variety of music was sung, many of the standard classics plus new and original arrangements of old and IICW songs. But the chorus really hit the top in the Gay Nineties Music Review, which was held on April 29. The success of the mixed chorus efforts at the Doclgeville Music Festival ways a fitting climax to a short but splendid year of mixed chorus.

Robert Valley 162- A 4 L Football Prairie 14 - Fennimore 0 In their first home game the Maroons made a sue- cesnful debut by whipping Fenuilnore 14-0. The Ma- roons entirely outclassed the opponents in the first half but were unable to score. Prairie stopped Fen- nimore's only chance to score in the first half when they held Fennimore gainless on the four yard line. The Maroons, first touchdown came in the third quarter when Gibbs recovered Anderson's fumble behind the goal line. Anderson kicked the extra point to make the score 7-0. Prairie -then kicked ofl' o11ce again and held the Fennimore team for four downs and took possesion on the Fennimore 4-0 yard line. On the first play Bornc passed to Larry Lake who nabbed it on the 20 yard lille and raced 20 yards for the touchdown. Anderson once again kicked the extra point. The fourth quarter saw both 'teams exchang- ing punts with the Maroon reserve seeing action in the final minutes of the game. Prairie 0 - Lancaster 32 On October 19 the Maroon eleven encountered one of their worst days when Lancaster completely over- powered the Maroons 32-0. Lancaster scored two touchdowns in the first half by captilizing on Prai- rie s weak pass defense and netted three more touchdowns in the last half 011 a pass and two long runs. Prairie's only chance to score came in the closing minutes of the first half, but time ran out be- fore they could score. It was the homecoming game for the Purple and Gold. Prairie 7 - Dodgeville 7 In the annual homecoming game of thekseason, the Maroons fought Dodgeville to a 7-7 deadlock. Dodge- ville kicked ofl' and the Maroons brought the ball to the opponents 10 yard line, but the Dodgeville de- fence tightened, and the Maroons were held to no gain. Dodgeville scored a touchdown in the second quarter when they put together a running and pass i11g attack to score. The touchdown came on a five yard pass. The extra point was good and Dodgeville led at the half 7-0. Coming back with high spirits the Maroons tallied quickly with Roger W'aller car- rying the ball over from the 20 yard line. Both de- fenses tightened in the last quarter and a punting duel engaged. Prairie 0 - Mineral Point 0 In their first game of the season, which was played under the lights at Mineral Point, the Maroons fought their opponents to a scoreless tie. Prairie took the opening kickoff and march- -53- ed to the Point seven yard line where the Pointers dug in and held the locals. Because it was the first game under the lights for anyone on the team, the Maroons did not open up with their passes. Both teams threatened each other's goals with neither team getting inside the five yard line. It was an offensive game but good de- fense was shown when either team threatened to score. Prairie 19 - Darlington 13 Playing their best game of the season the Maroons edged out the Darlington Indians 19-13 at the latter's home field. Harry Borne, Maroon halfback, fired a 15 yard pass to Ivan Gibbs to give the Dogs a 6-0 halftime lead. The Indians bounced back in the second half to score first, but the Maroons came back immediately with Anderson plunging over from the one yard line. Darlington knotted the score at 13-13 when a 19 yard pass clicked for a touchdown. With only two minutes remaining in the game Borne rifled a five yard pass to Bittner to win the game. Prairie 0 - Platteville 26 The Prairie ugridstersi' took their finst set- back of the season when they lost to Platteville- on October 26. The Hillmen scored twice in tl1e first half to lead 13-0 and tallied twice in the second period to win 26-0. Bob Dennis, Platteville's triple threat star who was picked on the all-state football squad, kept the Maroon offense in the hole all afternoon with his punt- ing which averaged about 50 yards. Another big factor for Platteville was Dennis's passing to end, J im Scott. Prairie 6 - Boscobel 13 In the annual Armistice day game the Boscobel 'fBulldogs defeated the Maroons 13-6. The first half was scoreless with both teams having their offenseivf' moments. Schaeffer of Boscobel got away for a 65 yard touchdown run but it was nullified by an offoside penalty. The second half was more active than the first with both teams scoring. Boscobel scored first on a long run by Schaeffer to lead 6-0. In the fourth quarter Borne passed a 25 yard toss to Bittner to score for the Maroons. Boscobel came back to win in the closing minutes when Richter intercepted a Prai- rie pass to gallop for a touchdown. Richter also carried the extra point over to give Boscobel a 13-6 Victory. Basketball The cagers of 746 proved themselves to be as versatile and successful on the hardwood court as any team in the conference. They completed a hard schedule of 21 games with 14- wins. Statistics show that the team did some fine individual scoring. At center position Roger Anderson, whose height helped to raise many scores for Prairie, tallied 161 points, and Larry Lake, a whiz at rebounds, made 30 points. At the forward position Harry Borne, cap tain of the team, was high point man with a total of 259 points. Bob Valley, the spark plug of the squad, had a total of 169 points and Don Schultz had 85 points. Clinton Strong, had 35 points and Bob Borne, a freshman, seven points. At guard Ivan Gibbs tallied 21 points and Jim Bittner five points. Harry Borne and Don Schultz alternated as forward and guard.
