Our Student Council, a student governing body which works for the benefits of its fellow students, is a member of both the Minnesota and the Na- tional Association of Student Councils. It consists of twelve members, five of whom are seniors, four are juniors, three are sophomores. These are elected by their classmates and one from each class is elected for a two-year term. The Student Council members are divided into three committees: Social Committee. Auditorium Committee, and Lost and Found Committee. With the able assistance and advice of George Ramseth, the Council has successfully carried out numerous projects. Our big project this year was supplying the concession groups at the games with SECOND ROW: Jot Corbett, Royce Russell. Mr. Ramseth. Jerry Page, Dick Parsons. popcorn. We were allowed to use the Jaycee’s pop- corn machine in return for the care and storage of the machine. Other projects were: sponsoring Dad’s Night for the fathers of the football team, sponsor- ing Mother’s Night for the mothers of the basket- ball team, decorating the Christmas tree in the hall, holding auctions for the sale of lost articles, lengthening the concession stand, selecting Lyceum programs for the following year, and presenting a farewell gift to each of the National Guard boys. In November, 1950, our Student Council select- ed two delegates, Bob Gray and Pat Boushek, to represent our school at the State Student Council Convention held at Roosevelt High School in Min- neapolis. Various discussions were held giving pointers on how to improve a Student Council. • The officers of the Student Council were as follows: President. Bob Gray; Vice President, Tom Cole; Secretary-Treasurer, Pat Boushek. OFFICE GIRLS LEFT TO RIGHT: Jo Lechner, Lila Davia, Jo Ann Lamberton. Gail Hardy, Barbara Bluhm, Pat Boushek, Mr. George Ramseth.

Today marks the be- ginning of Dog Days, which is Red Dog Gulch’s week-long holiday or should I say holiweek, which is equal only to April Fool’s Day for entertain- ment. This week everything and everybody goes to the dogs. In a short time the well remembered dog races will begin. It’s the most exciting event that ever touched the gutters of Red Dog Gulch. Bets can be placed at Wendt’s Recreation Parlor or at the betting booths at the stadium, however, Tony gives better odds. Tony’s also run- ning a part time auto-wrecking service these days. Let’s look over the line-ups for today’s races. Laurie Slocum, coach of Red Dog Kennels, has one of the top canines in his possession named Rusty Chuck Burmeister, a free-lance coach, has quite a mongrel, still, Lady is considered a good runner although she is a dark-horse or perhaps a dark- dog. Etlar Johnson’s dog, Duke, locks like he’s in excellent shape; and Bob Gray’s cur, Wolf, will certainly be a leading contender. Coach Royce Russell’s mutt Jeff (Mutt Jeff, get it?) will cer- Uinly do his best to win the cup. Coaches Ronnie Skillman and Kelly have been ruthless competitors for many years and their dogs Satan and Angel will likely as not have a fight before the end of the race. That huge red monster is Jack Smith’s dog Although slightly flea-bitten he’ll still be in there fighting. Last but not least is John Breckenridge’s dog, Curley, who looks like a good racer. We notice that the tellers in the betting booths are all ex-math students. Leora Kremin, Jo Ann Andersen, and Art Henderson are really taking in the dough. At the nearby concession stand we see Lerv Jones and Ambrose Kahnke, who.are work- ing there, selling beer to Phyllis McCorquodale and Gloria Elliott. That’s strange because Lerv and Ambrose are usually on the other side of the bar. On the program it says that during the inter- mission we will have vocal refrains by Doris Peters and the small town A1 Jolson. Bill Hillger. Doris will sing ‘Abba Dabba Dabba” and Bill will sing “9 243,516 Bottles of Beer Hangin’ on the Wall.” As we eagerly await the start of the races we see Pudge Fisher’s all-drum orchestra playing “We Rapp Resent ’ with Bill Henke as solo drummer. We notice several of our loyal alumni, namely Tom Dwyer and Arlin Krueger, throwing tomatoes at the orchestra. (Legend has it that Tom’s and Arlin’s all- brass orchestra lost the contract to Pudge Fisher, and they’re pocr losers ) Next on the pre-race entertainment is the juggling team of Doug Kam- holz and Arlene Castle. I guess Arlene has Doug pretty well reformed to keep him in training. It says on the program that Blair Bjerke will take care of any possible photo-finish. JoAnn Brandt recently became Blair’s assistant because Blair needed flashlight batteries for his camera’s flashgun and JoAnn was everready. We’ll switch over to Bob Aufenthie now who is today’s announcer. He deesn’t need a public address system, he just shouts. “Now the coaches are lining their purps up for the start of the race and the starter. Sue Ann Lin- deman, raises her whip to signal the start. (Sue finds that she can make as loud a noise with a whip as with a gun and she doesn’t have to buy bu:lets for a whip.) The whip comes down and they’re off. Skillman’s dog Satan jumps into the lead. (The Devil you say!!) Gray’s dog. Wolf, takes off across the stadium after Joan Tisue, as all wolfs do, so he automatically forfeits the race. Oh, oh, thar’s treachery afoot. A culprit whom I recognize as Pat Bou hek is trying to coax all the dogs (ex- cept Chas. Kelly’s) out of the race with some beef- steak. Oops, it backfired! There goes Kelly’s dog out of the race, but the rest of the pack are still in there pitchin’. It looks like it might be a photo- finish. It’s any man’s race now or any dog’s. They’re heading down the stretch, every dog neck and neck. What a race WHAT, A RACE? And now time out while we hear from our sponsor. Baldwin’s Cooking School.” “Are you getting in the habit of saying to your wife, ‘What are you opening up for supper?’ when you should be saying, ‘What are you preparing for iupper?’ Ship your wife to us and one of our cooks will teach her what she ought to know. Our cook- ing staff consists of Arlene Mattison, Mary Ann Stoll, Doroth Eichten, Ardys Werner, and yours truly, Baldy. Now back to Bob Aufenthie and the race.” “Where was I? Oh, yes, here they come, bear- ing down on the finish line,' every dog side by side. It’s so doggoned close that we’ll have to wait until our photographer gets the film developed before we can tell you the results of the race. After that race I’m sure that everyone is dog-tired but just keep your seats and we’ll have some entertainment while we wait. I’ll be back shortly with the results.” While we wait we can watch Jim Orton and Bob Olson perform on the trapeze. Rosa belle Revier is that bareback rider in the center of the field. (Just like her famous ancestor, Paul, I guess.) As we look into the stands we see Dorothy Draeger, Lila Davis, Lucille Watkins. Jean Evans, and JoAnn Lamberton taking Lawrence Paluck into Blair’s darkroom to help develop pictures, I guess. Louis Anderson over on the south end is trying to teach Ruth Nusbaum and Jo Lechner how to speak German but Ruth would rather learn French to go with her new bathing suit and Jo would rather learn how to speak Bikini. There’s Krink Parsons, the famous reporter for the Applejack Press. His originality in writing Eng- lish themes has begun to pay dividends. There’s certainly nothing more original than a reporter; they can make up anything for their columns. I see that our married couples are here— the Tordsens, Marquapdts, and Mrs. Meiers, known as Ruby Kletscher during her high school days. Marilyn Hawton, Delores Eichten and Donna Simondet are out scouting for a man but they de- cide that they might as well settle for Denny Stoffel, and since there are three of them and one of him, they decide to flip for him. Delores lost— so she has to take Denny. Miloyd Dolezal and Wayne Jackson have been shaking hands for the last hour and a half to see which one has the strongest grip—Miloyd has the larger hands but Wayne has the muscle bound ones (believe me). Now back to our announcer. Bob Aufenthie, who will tell is the outcome of today’s race and give us a description of the awarding of the covet- ed Dixie Cup. “My frands and you are my frands, today you have witnessed some keen competition in the sport cf dog racing. No doubt you are eagerly awaiting to hear who won, so I will now tell you the results. Our photographer was holding his finger over the lens as he took the picture, (We’re gonna miss him around here!) So now there’ll have to be some changes made in the usual procedure. It was so close that we can’t tell who won; therefore, we’ll have to award every dog that crossed the finish line the first prize trophy—the well known Dixie Cup. As the coaches come forward to receive their prizes we can see a beam of happiness and pride light up each and every countenance, for every man and dog was truly a winner. Certainly, sportsdogship and competition stimulate a mutt’s ambition. As each little “man’s-best-friend” follows his master out of the stadium we can see tears in the eyes of the spectators as they realize that it will be another full year before the next Red Dog deg race. So until next year at this time this is Bob Aufenthie bidding ah resorvoir and adieu, as they say in Latin.” As we pull away from the stadium, our hearts are filled with remorse that the day ended so quickly and we eagerly await next year’s Dog Days festivities.

Of the sixty-five graduating seniors, twenty-one have been together for all twelve years. When we look back on the year 1939 and see our class in the first grade, Bob Cison and Tom Dwyer were having a laughing spell. Don Wendt and Bill Hiliger were lavatory monitors and Jo- Ann Lamberton was having trouble with her read- ing. Chuck Burmeister, Dick Parsons, Laurie Slocum, and Bob Gray were planning a new hide- out to build. JoAnn Anderson and Mary Baldwin were doing a few errands for Miss Wilson, the teacher. The rest of our grade school days have many vague memories for us all, including oper- ettas, Christmas parties, a few favorite teachers and vacation times. When we entered junior high scnool, many new classmates joined us in our freshman year. The main thing that we remember about our junior high days is freshman day. We got to chew gum and drink pop. The girls got to wear slacks and we had a big program and picnic. Then we entered senior high school. Several of the boys began to make names for themselves in sports. In our junior year we presented the play “Beauty and the Beef.” We also were responsible for the Junior-Senior Prom. Our senior year is the year we will probably remember the most Pat Boushek ruled as queen for homecoming, and Donna Simondet, Jo Lechner, Marilyn Hawton, and JoAnn Brandt were her attendants. In January the National Guard was called into the service of our country. We lost six seniors who went with the guard unit to Alabama. They were Donald Peter- man, Owen Citrowske, Ken Macholda, Robert Sawatzky, Darrell Katzenberger and Wilbur Von Mosch. In these last days of our senior year the talk turns to graduation, pictures, the prom, announce- ments, and such things. The day we have dreaded and yet anticipated for years, graduation, soon comes. Memories of Redwood Falls High School for the class of 1951 do not end on June 1, though. We know that what we take away is something that will always hold us together in friendship and spirit. Juniors I.EFT TO RIGHT. FRONT ROW: Hazel Kretch, Audrey Krueger. Virginia Krueger.

Band “There is mvjsic wherever there is harmony, order, and proportion,” and all these apDly to the musical organizations in the Redwood Falls High School. The concert bard is the largest instrumental group consisting of 73 members. As the school is always striving for the best, they keep up to date on all phases of music and instruments. This year a set of chimes was added which contributed to various programs. Another section of the instrumental depart- ment is the pep band which plays at basketball games and pepfests, and is composed of 42 mem- bers. This group helps in forming the marching band which has about 60 members. The marching DRUM MAJORETTES LEFT TO RIGHT: Dorothy Buhner, Donna Slmondet Joanne Bunge.

Whoopees’ Band, and the orchestra. For five years now our school has been in a tri-school music festival with New Ulm and Fair- mont. This year the festival was held with Sleepy Eye, Springfield, and New Ulm at Redwood Falls. Roger T  wler. PERCUSSION: Donna Slmondet, Bernlece Jensen. Nell Young. Bill f!enke, Lowell Fisher.

The band has, however, played at many other programs throughout the school year. The instrumental department can attribute their success to Mr. Stanley “Lindy” Limburg. “Lindy” has been instructor at Red Dog Gulch for several years and possesses a wide-spread know- ledge of music.

Rose Ann Schottenbauer, Mary Jane Senior High Chorus The saying that “Music is the thing of the world that we love most,” is genuinely expressed by the fact that we had such a large number of mem- bers in the Senior High Vocal Department. The mixed chorus had 67 members this year which ex- ceeds the number in past years. A change was made in our vocal department this year. Miss Carolyn Jackson, who graduated from St. Olaf college last year, replaced Miss Doro- thy D. Mitchell, now Mrs. Stanley Stassen, as in- structor of the Senior High Vocal Department. Mrs. Stassen has been the instructor for five years and she now directs the Junior High Vocckl Department We all appreciate the efforts these teachers have put into the development of our vocal department. The chorus members make up the smaller groups such as; girls’ glee club, girls triple trio, boys’ octet, a trio, and the madrigal group which was termed this year. The first concert of the year was the annual Christmas Twilight Concert. The next was a religi- ous one in which both vocal and instrumental groups participated. This was the first year that a religious concert was held. We invited all the church choirs to join us. The band and two pianos furnished the accompaniment. The last big concert of the year was the spring concert, however, th6 choral groups sarg for many other special occasions during the year. The vocal department made its last public appearance at baccalaureate and graduation exercises. Smith. Dorothy Buhner, Donna Neuenburg, Mavis Menz, Janice Ballard.

Yes, the play was a great success and the junior class may well be proud of it. The story is about a widow and her troubles in finding matrimonial “catches” for Katinka, Sari, and Ella, the oldest of her seven daughters. Her problem, is complicated by the fact that she is bound to the old custcm of marrying off her daugh- ters in the order of their ages. Mitzi, the fourth daughter, 19, is expelled from school for running away to a masque ball and returns home in dis- grace. In order to advance her sister’s matrimonial chances, she is reduced to the age of 15, and com- pelled to behave accordingly. Horkoy, the young lieutenant she met at the ball again crosses her path. He reveals her plight and wagers that with- in a year he will see that her older sisters are mar- ried off, and Mitzi freed from the “nurseyj But when that happens he shall be rewarded by three kisses. They make the bargain, and the plot thickens. The intrigues they resort to in their plot constitute an entrancing network of comedy; a husband for each is singled out. In promoting her sisters’ happiness, Mitzi’s own romance becomes seriously threatened but matters adjust themselves and at the last Horkoy claims his reward. BANQUET - PROM May time is always Prom time in Red Dog Gulch and we, as juniors, found ourselves confront- ed with the gigantic problem of putting on the prom and banquet for seniors. We worked months to get everything prepared for the grand occasion. Committees were appointed for the varied and numerous tasks connected with the preparation and presentation of the prom and banquet. At last the long awaited hour arrived and we entered into a ‘‘Spanish Garden.” Along both ends of the gym were bigger-than-life dancing senors and senoritas. The terrace, which was decorated with red, yellow, and blue crepe paper was entered through a rose covered arch. In the center of the floor was a large fountain. Spot lights playing on the water gave the impression that the water was changing color. A mirrored globe, with spot lights focused on it, cast reflections like moonbeams in the fountain. It appeared that the weeks of work were not in vain. We filed in and found our places at tables which were spread with the delicious banquet pre- pared by the mothers of the juniors. The tables were decorated with aluminum foil fans and white tapers. The nut cups and place cards were cleverly fashioned Spanish hats. Our meal was served to us by sophomores dressed in gay Spanish costumes. When the last course was over the program began. The welcoming address was given by our presi- dent, Chuck Burmeister and this was followed by an acknowledgement by the senior class president. Bill Gold. We were then royally entertained by the Swallows, who sang, ‘‘Cielito,” and “In a Little Spanish Town.” Mr. Reede Gray and Mr. George Ramsetih then spoke to us. The will was then read by Duke Johnson. Jerald Trent then concluded the program with a farewell speech for the senior class. After the program the floor was cleared for dancing. To the strains of “Long Long Ago” the couples lined up for the grand march. As the couples came through the human arch they turned out on the floor dancing. Those who did not trip the light fantastic, as well as those who did, seem- ed to entertain themselves at a well from which flowed not water but punch. The lovely decorations, the soft music, the swish of formals, the scent of flowers, all contributed to the magic of that most memorable night—a night which we will never forget.

At the start of the 1951 season head Coach Loren Waugh and his assistant, Roy Walters, were not too sure of the chances for a successful season. As practice progressed they were not only pleased with the progress of the squad but were looking forward to a good season. The Cards went into the final game undefeated but Jackson smashed their hopes «with a twenty-eight to fourteen set- back. The Cards were undefeated in conference play but still lost the crown to Glencoe because of two ties. For hemecoming the Cards defeated a tough New Ulm team. The team was hit hard by the loss of Chuck Burmeister and Laurie Slo- cum due to injuries in the latter part of the sea- son.

The two defeats came during the first four games to Marshall and Tracy. The loss to Tracy was an overtime affair. The Cards had double victories over Morton and New Ulm. In the middle of the season, Win- dom came to Redwood riding a ten game winning streak. The Cards rated as underdogs came throu to defeat them 53 to 50. The team had well balanced scoring which helped bring them a good season. Laurie Slocum or Russ Hanson usually set the pace but the other boys weren’t far behind. The boys got revenge for the early loss they suffered at the hands of Marshall by defeating •them sixty-one to forty-two. Near the end of the season the squad invaded Granite Falls Gran- ite was rated as the top team in District Eleven, but the Cards stopped them by a score of fifty- five to forty-nine. The ceeded teams for the District wer° Red- wood Falls, Wabasso, Franklin, and New Ulm in that order. Going into the district the Cards had a ten game winning streak which was one of the longest in the state. Returning lettermen are Dick Fowler, Russ Hansen, Bob Pannkuk, and Bob Wolf. The boys lost by graduation are Captain Laurie Slocum. Bof Aufenthie, Chuck Burmeister, Bob Gray, Dick Parsons and Jack Smith. Going into tournament play the team hted a ten game winning streak. Before their first tourna- ment defeat it was extended to fifteen. They had little trouble defeating Lamberton by a score of 57 to 36. After Lamberton the team defeated Winthrop by a score of 59 to 32. The next opponent was Sleepy Eye in the semi-finals, who had a ten game winning streak which the Cards broke 67 to 23. The toughest test of the District came when the boys nipped New Ulm by a score of 35 to 34 in the championship game at Gustavus. The next title the Cards went after proved to be too elusive to win. In the first round of the Regional they defeated Glencoe, who had been beaten only once all year, by a score of 37 to 28. Then came the final game against Canby. The Carus were rated as the underdog, and the rating held true. Canby, with a fine team, came through to de- feat the Cards 46 to 31. A week later Canby went on to be runner-up to Gilbert in the state tournament. The Cards ended the season with an overall record of seventeen victories and three defeats.

Coach Bob Larsen sent his boys into battle fifteen times and eight of these times they were the victors. The game which the team was probably more proud of than all the rest was the victory over Sanborn’s “A” Squad by the score of fifty-three to forty-four. The little Cards outscored their opponents by a score of 491 to 475. With the graduation of six lettermen from the “A” Squad, several of these boys will be moving up to take a place on the varsity next year. Bob Wolf and Bob Pannkuk played with the “A” Squad for the entire year besides playing with the “B” team. Bob Wolf is a transfer from Sanborn. The numeral winners were sophomores Dick Barnes, Joe Corbett, Roger Bucholz, Bill Dennis- toun, Curt Krueger, Neil McKay, Jerry Page, Laurie Peterson, Gary Kandgaard, Louie Robinson, Dave Wood.

The Cards started the track season by handily defeating Morten and Morgan in a triangular meet at Redwood. The boys were looking forward to the meet at St. Johns but it was canceled because of bad weather. After a short layoff they won the Birch Coulee conference by outscoring their near- est opponent, Hutchinson, by a thirty-or.e point margin. The Birch Coulee Conference was formed only two years ago and the Cards have won the title both years. Then came the big track meet which the Cards had wen for two consecutive years, the district. Again New Ulm was the team expected to give the boys the most trouble, but again the Card track- sters came through to win their third consecutive title. Parsons, David Reque, Robert Schottenbauer, and Jack Smith were the tracksters who qualified for the regional. A disappointing final score showed that the Cards had been beaten by one-half point by Madison. Cliff Jordon, Dave Reque and Bob Schottenbauer qualified for the state meet. Cliff Jordon placed fifth in the high hurdles. The junior high team copped the Junior High meet for the second consecutive year. The prospects for next season are bright and Coach Roy Walters says, “although we lost heavily by graduation, transfer, and the National Guard, we should be able to hold our own against teams in our area again this year.” TRACK MEETS As a warmup for the regional Redwood parti- cipated in the Marshall invitational and placed second to Worthington.

The baseball team coached by Jerry Richey enjoyed one of its most successful years, despite the late wet season, since baseball was revived in our high school. The Cards were beaten by New Ulm four to one to put them out of the tournament. But to add a little prestige to the tea91, they won the Birch Coulee Conference title by defeating Olivia. Glencoe, and Hutchinscn. With the loss of only two men, Dave Reque and Jim Mowry, the outlook for 1951 is good. The Cards will have their sights set on that coveted dis- trict championship. Returning ’ lettermen include: Captain Ronnie Skillman, Chuck Burmeister, Dick Fowler, Bob Gray. Bill Henke, Chuck Kelly, Dick Parsons, Laurie Slocum, Denis Stoffel, and John Stoffel. During the summer the Junior J egion team, composed mainly of the same boys, captured their second straight District Two championship and proceeded to the state tournament. They defeated Austin to get to the semi-firals where they faced Minneapolis Richfield. Going into the final inning Red weed was leading by a score of one to nothing. With one cut Minneapolis scored two runs and knocked Redwood out of the running. Later in the season the team defeated the state champs. St. Paul North End. by a see re cf one to nothing to prove their ability. SCHEDULE AND SCORES Opponent R.

As each wrestling season rolls around more and more interest is built up. This year twenty- five boys saw action. The team won five, lost four, and tied one during the season. They won two from Willmar, and one from Hutchinson, Tracy and Walnut Grove. They lost two matches to Milroy, and one to Hutchinson and Litchfield. They tied New Ulm. Captain Dick Holt with a record of eleven victories and two ties and Roger Tetrick with eleven victories finished the season undefeated. Wilbur Johnson finished with a record almost as impressive by winning all but one of his regular season matches. Coach Virgil Sales says the boys reached their top performance of the year when they won the sub-regional tournament held at Redwood Falls. They outscored their nearest rival, Milroy, by twenty points. Redwood sent nine men to the regional tournament held at Hutchinson. Blue Eaith won with thirty-six points, but Redwood tied Hutchinson for second with twenty-nine tal- lies. The team qualified Wilbur Johnson, Dick Barnes, Roger Tetrick, and Captain Dick Holt for the state wrestling tournament. Dick Holt gained third place which is quite, an honor. The tourna- ment team consisted of Pat Perrizo, Robert Woel- fel. Wilbur Johnson, Dick Barnes, Jack Aune, Mickey Gilland, Claude Green, Roger Tetrick, Dick Holt, Denis Stoffel, and Bob Kenney. Coach Virgil Sales will lose only one boy from his sub-regional championship team. This years letter winners include Jack Aune, Dean Barnes, Dick Barnes, Mickey Gilland, Claude Green, Dick Holt, Wilbur Johnson, Bob Kenney, Pat Perrizo, Ronnie Skillman, Denis Stoffel, Roger Tetrick, and Robert Woelfel.

Homecoming Redwood Falls vs. Granite Falls L re C, c° %vos The 1950 homecoming festivities were set off Thursday night, October 12, with the traditional snake dance through the business district led by the cheerleaders. This was followed by a huge bon- fire and pep meeting held on the parking lot of the baseball field. The freshmen class canvassed the business places and gathered the fuel for the bon- fire on Wednesday and Thursday. A pep meeting and skit in the high school auditorium preceded the parade which assembled at 2:30, Friday afternoon, outside the school. Lead- ing the parade was a color guard from the local National Guard unit followed by the high school band. The five lovely queen candidates were next riding in convertibles, and well decorated floats followed from the home rooms of grades four through eleven. Miss Haukebo’s sophomore home room won the senior high prize of seven dollars and fifty cents. The five dollar junior high prize went to Miss Staehling’s seventh grade room, and Miss Lutf- jen’s sixth grade won four dollars in the grade school division. William Hillger was chairman of the parade committee. The homecoming slogan, “Granulate Granite,” submitted by Jim Limburg, proved prophetic. The traditional bad luck of Friday the thirteenth was scorned by the Cards as they defeated the Granite Falls team 39 to 25—to make it six wins in a row. Entertainment was furnished at 'the half by the high school band under the direction of S. W. Limburg. The shivering queen candidates were in- troduced to the crowd at that time. The suspense of who would be the homecoming queen was broken when Clark Arnott, president of the Redwood Falls Junior Chamber of Commerce, crowned Pat Boushek homecoming queen of 1950, at a dance in the Lincoln Gym after the game. The other candidates. Jo Ann Brandt, Marilyn Hawton. Jo Lechner and Donna Simondet were her attend- ants. Music was by Gene Mark and his orchestra. Employees Kitchen Staff LKFT TO RIGHT: Mr . Ho-e .
