We slowly but surely cut our way into the three F's under the troop leader- ship of Miss Miller. Lxcept for a few devils we weren't exceptionally had nor good either, for that matter. One incident happened which I'm sure those whom it concerned will never forget. It happened during the year we pitched our tents in hrs. Conger's locality. We had just gotten those beautiful new fangled desks which opened by lifting up their tops. There was a slot on the right hand side of each in which we kept our pencils. That was nice, except for the fact that we weren't quite used to them and kept dropping pencils on the floor when we lifted the tops. Well, finally just one too many dropped on the floor and Mrs. Conger, at the end of her patience, said that if one more pencil fell we wculd have a punishment of sane sort. I guess we were at the age when we were all rather high spirited,but anyway we took all our little pencil stubs out, and full of the dickens as we all were, slowly put them on the floor until the aisles were filled with pencils. hven Mrs. Conger, who has a jolly sense of humor, couldn't see anything funny about this, and we weren't disappointed either because as surely as the sun rises in the east we got our punishment. After receiving our merit cards for achievement in the grades we continued on our trail in constant pursuit of education. We came to a fork in the road where more scouts of all nationalities, creeds and religions came to join us in putting our ideas, talents, and abilities together into the beginning of four years full of many new experiences. For a short while we paused on our trail to stop and adjust ourselves to a rather different type of life. After a rather rugged initiation we were considered 'in' Some of the older more dignified scouts even remarked that we were the 'quietest pack'that had passed that way in a long, long time. I guess we've sort of changed. As our trail led into the Junior year,our main interest was the Junior Prom. During the first few weeks of school we elected Russ Moely to be our president and consequently King. He later chose lvonne Taylor to be his Queen. Under the able guidance of Miss Flugstad, our advisor, we transformed the gymnasium into a 'Southern Plantation', using as the theme, 'Neath the Southern Nbon'. The setting of this prom proved to be one of the prettiest in the history of PDS. As we constantly tramp along our trail we find that we have gained the new title of Seniors. One of our first important camps of this year was the Class Play. Under the fine direction of Mr. and Mrs. Ness, ten of our scouts presented a comedy in three acts, 'The Charming 1ntruder'. For our next camp we stopped at the Senior Ball. Joyce Morrow, our president, reigned as Queen and chose Bill Kohlman to reign as King. The gymnasium was decorated to the theme of 'Winter Wonderland'. As we look ahead we can see many more camps ahead of us -- lacca- laureate, Class Night, and last but not least, Commencement. This is not the end of our trail. We merely have come to another fork in the path where we must decide our futures. We will always remember our many happy days when we were scouts on the trail of the forty-niners. N A4561 WS. T THQ x -5 'xf. be . 'S We QP is CLASS PROPHECY OF 1949 It is way past midnight, and I really should turn in for the night, but all I can d4-is think of the events of this evening. You see, I have just returned from a reunion party for the class of 1949 from Prairie High. The turn out certainly was fine! I believe the earliest ones to come were Bob Brewer and Yvonne. Of course they could make it easily because the gym is only a distance of a few blocks from the little white house with blue shutters which they share. Speaking of the married couples, Dean Anderson was there and we all met his wife and four charming little daughters! And he declared he was going to be a bachelor! Since I, Elaine Meyer, have been employed by the Chevrolet garage here in town, as chief car tester, I was extremely interested in the cars that my former classmates drove. Mary Alice Tobey rode up fescorted of coursel in the very latest Tucker model. lt seems she has been spending most of her time riding in beautiful cars. Evelyn Diske, Beverly Mueller, and Betty Gasner were driven out from Madison in their corporation convertible by, surgeon, Jerome Ganser. They are all three nurses in the Madiscn General Hospital and he is doctoring there. Everyone was amazed at the growth of the PdS High School. They have two history teachers to handle the department. They are our own Joyce Morrow and Audrey Clavadatscher. The office must be handling much more work too, because they have two secretaries, Mary Kindschi and Marion Sprecher. I guess they just couldn't leave good old PdS. That isn't the same for all of them though because, Marilyn Jones flew clear from New lork, where she is a member of -Phil Spitanly's all girl orchestra, just to see her old pals. Whilefrom the west coast came the All American Majorette, Myrtle lngsdal, who has been touring the states with her performance. I always thought she could really handle that baton. Our local farmers spent most of the evening in a corner discussing their own farms. I distinctly remember Marvin Manweiler telling Pob Schuette that Russell Moely was farming very badly. Of course Hob and Marvin have made their farms near Merrimac and Baraboo, respectively, the latest thing in dairying. Hut poor Huss wasn't there to protect himself. He called me earlier and said he couldn't make it because his fences broke and his cows were running all over Sauk County. Speaking of farmers, Willis Koenig has settled on one with his June. Marian Hepka was there with her sailor husband. She alscatold me that Delores Kruse had married her sailor friend. Speaking of sailors, I went up to Sailor Bill Conley and was asking him about his rank and duties., He proudly exclaimed that he was promoted from scrubbing main deck to scrubbing the officers rooms. Quite an honor, I'd say. Stanley Saxer sure brought up some good points in discussing the Communists. He certainly is a good source as he just returned from a trio to China to help aid the people. He'11 leave H0 Stone unturned in trying to help them. He was really having a pretty heated argument with Milton Guetzkow. Milton has really seen the world since he left PdS. He started truck driving quite younp and now he has a beautiful semi all of his own, with Milton Guetzkow in big letters along the side. We got two very nice telegrams from the kids who couldn't come. Betty Schuknecht telegramed that she surely wished she could be present, but she was busy working. l read in the paper that she has become star scloist in Fred Warings group, and they are touring Europe giving concerts right now. The other one was from that famous artist Beverly Willey. She is clear out in California painting and couldn't get away. I needed no telegram to learn that Warren Giese would be absent. I read in the New lork times yesterday that the star pitcher for the Brooklyn Dodgers was nursing a black eye and bruised chin. It seems that the Dodgers and Chick won the world series. The New lork lankees didn't feel too good about it. It's too bad they took it out on Warren though. Ap.. xy f bca? 17th 5 gg lv 1, L .f - 1 07' 4' 'Vu- N ,L rn- f 4g x I Several peo le came from Beedsburg way--Ramona Fenske, who is a secre- tary in a large business concern there, and Mae Feivor. Mae as you know is living comfortably with her Boy Scout Leader and two little boy scouts. Che of the most attractive girls there was June Silvest. She has made hairstyling and beautician work her chief job. Her coiffure was the latest in 1969 fashion. Joyce Albrecht who cameiclear from Montana was showing everyone pictures of her riding horses. Some of the horses she has raised have been in the famous Kentucky Derby. Che corner of the room was occupied by Dorothy Andersam and Bill Greiber who were enjoying talking over 'old times.' If I remember our Senior year, I believe they really had some old times to discuss. Dorothy has spent the past years teaching piano and Bill has become a second Einstein in the wcrk of mathematics. Let's see, what was written on the little card I got! 'Gavol and Kohlman' Public Accounting, 130 Park Avenue, Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Say Bill and Bob really have set up a nice partnership in the past years. I keep hearing that swell music we enjoyed all evening. Top band leader, Don Ladd, brought his trombone and orchestra right with him from Chicago. His arrangements really go over swell, thanks to his arranger-wife, Marilyn Bender. Last but not least, there was the lunch! It certainly was delicdous, thanks to Delores Steckelberg, who has become wddely known for her recipes. After teaching Home Economics for several years, she went into meal planning and menus. Maybe you've heard her program over NBC. It'S called 'Dining with Delores.' Everything was served in a splendid manner under the capable hands of Lenore Hermundson and Janice Laufenberg. They specialize in that S1309 they both are employed in a self service filling station in Hollywood, California. I always thought the class of 1949 would be a success and now, after tonight, it was proved to me. Each one of us has taken from this evening a memory to take with us the rest of our lives.

Joyce A1brecht's eyes have a flirty way, Especially with the teachers. So to your girls that need the grades, She wills this way which seems to pay! Dean Anderson leaves his sense of humor lo any dull and lifeless Junior. Dorothy Anderson, whom two certain boys love to Gladly leaves, to some needy Junior girl, one Marilyn Bender has all the luck When it comes to guys with cars, So this luck she gives to Nancy Who's had all had luck so far. to Wes, Bob Brewer leaves his manly physique The 'one and only man' left at P.D.S. Audrey Clavadatscher bequeaths her quiet ways Tb Colleen Barkley to use in future days. Bill Conley's art of story telling, To Arvin Steckleberg, he's gladly willing. Evelyn Diske, our annual editor, Leaves her executive ability, For which we must credit her, To Albert Fuchs, the editor of nineteen-fifty. The unearthly giggle of Mae Feivor, 'Wo XN'1.

Marilyn Jones clarinetist first chair Wills her place to Joan Doescher, Who hopes she'll be there. Mary Kindschi leaves her ability along the dramatic line, Which is some thing for which we know many of you pine. Willis Koenig's mustache, Which makes him look so brave, He leaves to some Junior, Who still doesn't shave. The 'towering' Senior of basketball fame, KBill Kohman by namel Wills his ability to play the game. Bell bottom trousers, coats of navy blue, Delores Kruse seems to love them, And wills this love to you! Don Ladd alias 'Chillsf his trombone ability he gladly wills. Skipping school is lots of fun so we've heard, So willing this pass time are: Marion Repka and Janice Laufenberg. Elaine Meyer leaves her over-used car, Tb Peter Radlund, who has to walk so far! In nineteen hundred and forty-eight, we held our Jounior Prom. Our royalty for that affair were Russell and Yvonne. So their grandeur and crowns so sublime, lhey pass on to those who reigh in future times. Joyce Morrow leaves her history mind Because to Gloria Conley, She thought she would be kind. As a hostess, Bev Mueller ranks high. Memories of her slumber parties will never die. So her knack to entertain, She leaves to those who need the fame. Stanley Saxer's argumentive ways Disgust the teachers, but seem to pay. So to some poor Junior, who can not argue, He wills his ability, saying'Good luck to you!' Bob Schuette, another Senior boy, M Could be any girl's pride and joy.

Delores Steckelberg leaves her asset of dignity, Tb some Junior who might want that ability. Mary Alice Tobey leaves her free and easy smile, To any Junior who needs to go the'second mile.' Bev Willey, a star of the Senior Class Play, Leaves her charm to someone sho may also become Myrt Yngsdal's ease of twirlihg the baton, Is a talent worth passing on.

They were President: Kenyon Giese, Vice-Presi- dent: Neva Sprecher, Secretary: LaVonne Enge, and Treasurer: Sylvia Thibert. Up- permost in our minds was planning and carrying out the initiation of the green freshmen. We put them through numerous stunts besides the usual 'bubbler sitting' and the odd costumes they were compelled to wear. Many very red faces were appar- ent. Because of outside conflicts, the annual dinner was held immediately after school. This revealed our other side as we tried to be proper hosts to courteous guests. The Sophomore Class was active in sports, music, forensics, and other outside activities. Under the helpful aid of our advisor, Mr. Charles Hibbard, we performed a num- ber of projects. If the coming year is to be as exciting as these two have been we will surely look forward to itf WM :Az-1-:':-cn :g4::::1g:r -1-r+ : -:1:1:I-r:1f:::- -12-:ri2:-:E1ErErEi2:3rE1E: :f:25ErE:Eh-1151355 ': .- .-....- N- . ,.,,.,.3,:.g.g.:.:..: :-:I:1:1:1:2-:2:I :::::::::5 .2:1:I 'QIEIE :f5:1:1:zf:2:r:1 1ErEr5:E:5,5EE592'1Ei'f :::-cg:-3:3153 .:g.g:g.-::.4:-gg: :Q-: .-:-.-ew -:-:-:..- 2-41:-MRI' -ss: :g::::::1'.:..... .

This was a complete change from what we were accustomed to, so for a time we felt somewhat unsettled. but after several weeks of this new, lost feeling, things were changed by the Sophomores. From the beginning of school we had heard so much about Initiation that when the day arrived, we were prepared for the worst. We spent the day as slaves of our superiors, the Sophomores. when evening came, however, we were served a delicious meal by the Sophomore Home Eco- nomics Class. Our first class meeting and election of officers resulted as follows: President, Hose Richter, Vice President, Phil Trautmannp Secretary and treasurer, Dolores Olson. Student Council members: Jon Aton and Shirley Repka. Pep Club members: Nita Yanke and Phil Trautman. Our class advisors were Mrs. Hodgson and Mr. Ness. Our class has taken part in the various activities of the school. Several boys have participated in sports, and two of the girls, Karen Turkelson and Margaret Bitt ner, acted as cheerleaders. Many of our number belong to the music organizations. Now at the close of our Freshman year, we are proud to be called the class of 1952 and we eagerly anticipate three more years of pleasant interesting work at Prairie High.

Although we lost three and won one after that, the boys had done swell work, and deserve credit for the good sports they proved to be. Lettermen are as follows: Schuette, Brewer Moely, Giese, Saxer, Kohlman, Ladd, Yanke, Aton, Shanks, Fuchs, Ryan, Koepp, Savoy, Richmueller, Schwartz, Strmiska, Eckstein, Coulson, and Meyer.

In conference play, Prairie tied with Sauk for the Tri-County League Championship with 8 wins and two defeats. Prairie placed second in tournament play by rolling over the first two teams easily but were unable to hit in the championship game which caused the defeat. With only three Seniors on the squad , prospects for next year are again promising.

The high school band, under the direction of Larry Ernst, started something new this year by having band five days a week and giving all members one credit. We feel that in Mr. Ernst we have one of the most competent leaders we have ever had. He received his B.A. degree from Lawrence College and his M.A. from North- western University. Another new institution this year was the Jazz Band in which Mr. Ernst played a hot truwget, Donald Ladd--trombone, Marilyn Bender--piano, Marilyn Jones--c1ari- net, and' orothy Anderson--saxaphone. This Jazz Band appeared at many social events including the Basketball Tournament. A lot of us got a bang out of playing in a German Band for the farmers at the 'Institute'. Some of the schottischeses brought tears to the old folks' e es. This year the annual tournament was at Portage and the state tournament as usual. as held in Madison on May 15. The band lost about seventeen seniors this year. Suite a number! 'L Qa -,A ,Y 4. Q First How: Henning, F. Parchem, V. Parchem, K.

Mrs. Larry Ernst directed it. One of the cutest things we did this year was a Fred Waring arrange- ment of 'The Night Before Christmas'. The girls wore formals at this performance and the boys, flashy bow ties. For our spring concert we enjoyed such numbers as Oklahoma, Its A Grand Night For Singing, Fuffalo Cals, and many religious numbers.

Future Homemakers Of America The Prairie du Sac Chapter of the Homemakers of America was organized at the beginning of the school year of 1948. This organization is for the purpose of teaching them good, wholesome, family life in the community and for the future The F.H.A. as an organization does many things. It gives demonstrations of its work in the district and in state, county, and rural fairs. These demon- strations may include anything from making dresses, to salads, or to refinishing furniture. Each girl's talent and masterpeice is shown. The F.H.A. Chapter has a meeting every month. This meeting is on the first Tuesday of every month. Each girl is required to wear the organization scarf, dark skirt, and white blouse. Each officer's scarf symoblizes something different. The officers were: President--Dolores Steckelberg Vice-president-- Senior--Mary Kindschi Junior--Arlene Sprecher Freshman--Karen Turkelson Secretary--Marion Sprecher Treasure--Dorothy Anderson Historian--Maisel Quade fm FN V VG' . 3 M5 5365 - , 4 gags-NZ!!!

If you were among the fans that spent their time in the New and Old byms watching the Boy's and Girl's teams battle for a win, you know how much fun it was! Both teams show real 'fighting spirit' when they play, but the girls really 'get in there and fightl' Sometimes spectators have a hard time tell- ing whether they're playing leap frog, football, or basketball. Champion of Boy's Intramurals was Frank Wittwer's team with six wins and two losses, and the Girl's Senior and Sophomore teams were on top.
