The course of our four years of high school has been a massed assembly of joys and grievances. Four years ago on a dull morning in early September four hundred students assembled to begin their yearly activities. Among them were our anxious, frightened faces. After one or two weeks of aimless wondering about, we finally succeeded in getting acquainted. With the exception of a tew uncalled for initiations, we were treated quite civilly bv the upper classmen. Enthusiasm and devotion for our work, which was new to us, increased with time. We received our first roval welcome at the so called “mixer” given by the Senior Class. From then on we gradually were looked upon as their equals. Our class members eagerly entered into tin; activities which laid the foundation of our Sophmore year. Believe it or not. our knowledge increased as the sands of time flowed on. The majority passed the exams which brightened our last day as a Freshmen, and inspired us with a hope for the future. After a few months of fun and frolic, we began our Sophomore year. Our reputation as a progressive class was becoming more and more evident. Our atheletically inclined classmates were beginning to show promise of great accomplishment. After months of toil and hardships, we joyfully received the decision of the judges, which pronounced us the winners ot the lovalty banner of 1930. The importance of receiving the banner was shown by the fact that the Seniors wept. Then dawned the great year—the Junior year. We reigned supreme in social functions as well as in scholarships. The Junior prom was a great success due to the untiring efforts of the class members. Miss Peterson, our advisor, supervised the gorgeous piece of work with outstanding lability. At the Loyalty Feast we gave the Seniors a hard run for first dace. We lost the precious banner by a fraction of a point. Last of all, but not least, we entered into our Senior year. Our joy and feverish excitement to graduate in the beginning of the year slowly but surely changed to regretfulness and remorse. Our high school career will soon be ended. Commencement will usher us out into a new world of experiences. The class of ’32 will then no longer be a part of the school, but its members will forever uphold ihe tra- fT ;f' £ ditions, honor, and teachings of our dear Alma Mater. t24l The GLEANER 1932 Class Weaknesses Barbara Babb....................

Francis Yorman MY DIARY (Samuel Pepy’s Style) Sunday—My honored wife, Roberta Miehe and my two pairs of twin sons, Ewald Beth Henry and Henry Eschenbach Henry, Hugh Casey V. ! Henry and Ralph Wright Henry attended church. It was our good for-5 ; tune to listen to a lengthy sermon delivered by the honorable Dr. Blonien, av ; A- who is a graduate of the LaValle University. In his sermon he made reference to the book entitled “The Religion and Philosophies of Clara Baer”. 1 must not have been listening too closely fof who should I see but Bliss Crane composing a poem “To a Louse” which was crawling up •: Rose Oehler’s beautiful new spring bonnet. On our way from the service ?we met Miss Gertrude Cady whom we invited to dinner, since her escort was planning t � be there. Monday—Was aroused bright and early by our little French maid, Clarice Brown. I recommend her highly because she gets my bedroom slippers without groaning. Went to the “Bass Inn”, and bought a ticket for a fish lunch. Dorothy Bass, the proprietor readily agreed to save a XW table, for a few friends might dine with us as usual. I met Dr. Thomas rsvvell with whom I then attended the Parliamentarv meeting. The fa- _ The GLEANER 1932 mous Mr. Riggert gave a long introductory address which was followed by another almost as unpleasant by John Hurley. While shopping my wife and 1 bumped into baby carriages, pushed by two old friends, Francis Yorman and Margaret Woodson. The babies were certainly fine and healthy youngsters. Francis took pride in her Bob Hartig Junior while Margaret took pride in big Phil Milbauer Junior who she thought was certainly likely to become a prize lighter like his father. Tuesday—Visited an art school conducted by Agnes Thiemann and Georgia Hagenah. I was very much shocked to see Rosemary Cunningham, an old friend of mine, posing for the artist Bowen. Donald Caylor w;fs wearily toiling on a sketch of Vera Brechtl’s face; however her nose was causing him considerable trouble. Also enjoyed the task of having Ralph Bentley, the dentist who makes pain laughable, jerk out my molar Elva Baldner was his assistant, so my pain left me gradually. On my way home I, now a miserable wreck, was assailed by red headed Francis Bvrnc and chubby LaVeda Roehrs. They swept me away with their beauty and “lines”, making me forget my pain altogether. They escorted me home all right, but then came the thunder. My wife was angry with me and I with her. For as soon as 1 received words of endearment, out stumbled the giggling John Thorne and Edward Westphal, who both had just recently received their degrees at Cambridge. Lightning shot from my eyes. At dinner this evening my wife smiled at me—so everything was jake. She almost had to smile because Syvilla Funte and Johanna Giblin were guests Thev both had finally gotten up enough nerve to find out if our marriage was on the decline. Wednesday—My wife still a bit peeved decided to go to her mother’s. Tonight I had a party. Edward Brunhoefer and Helen Christenson ma vet be arguing over the right of man. Gerald Krueger and Caecilia Thiemann grew sulky because the lights wouldn’t remain out. Keith Walsh and William Harper grew loud from drinking too much of the ale supplied by Edgar Wolter who owns an alehouse. Wilbur Cleveland and Helen Wiseman exchanged shv glances until Marian Claridge decided to leave the setee to sit with Milton Brice. Must remember to get the maid up earliest my wife return before the house is cleaned. Thursday—Visited the school of literature conducted by Maureen Hickey. Vern Hallenbeck, her partner was speaking eloquently to a group of dozing students. Allie Garske was trying to catch flies which wer buzzing about the slumbering Erwin Gardner. The Dean, Edith Scott arrived, and after adjusting her horn rimmed glasses, vigorously shook th gum-chewing Marie Schluter. Friday—Was introduced to a group of famous men today: Martin Pratt, the band Master, Willis Frank, the manufacturer of the Willis Ktiigh'. Irvin Ebel, the love sonnet writer, Gerald Cobleigh, the divine woman hater, and James Daniels, the “lion hearted”. Raymond Cummings an.! Anita Cook decided to hook up some type of radio apparatus. Saturday—Received a telegram early this morning telling of the arriv; ! of mv two nephews, Everett and Robert Faivre. Everyone was (loin nicely.

Then the doorbell rang and I found a man named Russell Douglas, the fiance of ns. Marion, tearfully begging to see her because the evening before had resulted ; in a quarrel. Received a letter from our old dear friend Harriet Harper now an old maid, trying to sue me for breach of promise because of a few letters I had written her. I was thoroughly disgusted so I got my lawyer, Seth Kirkpatric, to fix things for me. Sunday—Arose to listen to a sermon on the radio, for my gout wouldn't allow me to attend church. Whose sonorous voice should I have the ex treme pleasure to hear but that of the honorable Dr. A. Outcalt. Harold Van Allen, the crooning troubador, led the singing with the aid of his banjo. Ralph Wright, the famous organist, accompanied him. This afternoon my gout suddenly disappeared and decided to play golf.

As a banquet is to be given in honor of Rose Kohlmeyer, his heart of hearts, a wonderful feast was prepared by Orville Thrasher, inventor of the threshing machine and Gilbert Montgomery, thi founder of Montgomery Ward and Company. A great number of people were present at the King’s request. Among them were the pretty Marian Kelley and Harold Luekins. Melva McClure, the mother of King Larry, attended with her new suitor, Durward McQueen. Many others also attended. A great number didn’t reach the castle till daylight after the king had sent for them. The coaches had broken down on the way. Indeed The GLEANER 1932 here was an extraordinary sight. The dreamy Jane Bartlett was found bewildered by the side of the snoring Robert Banks. Dorothy Donahue and Jim Dwver were found eagerly playing at checkers. Arline Brimmer and Larry Walsh were still mad with frenzy because Arline refused to get out and aid the others in fixing the coach. Jeanette Wheeler and Eugene Weit-zel were busily engaged in gathering cowslips along the roadside. Robert Devereaux, Howard Grote, Ivan Hopper, Cooper Lange, and William Koeneckc, the King’s favorite knights, brought the belated guests safely to the castle. A large group of servants aided the guests in finding comfort. Adeline Austin, Ethel Bradley, Madonna Brechtl, Phyllis Cortteyou, Jeanette Davis, Marcella Davis, and Georgia Faivre were some of the maids who had once been daughters of nobels. In the afternoon a “just” was held in the King’s Court by Tom Sweeney and Clinton Huebing over the beautiful lady, Regina Zapp. Clinton, the sturdy one, won the favor of the lady. One of the spectators was Josephine Happle, the fattest woman in the court. She was escorted by Lord Van Loenen, the famous “archer'. Alvina Hasse, Genevieve Frambs, Melva Fuller and Mary Gillespie were present all dressed in red and yellow. Leona Hahn, the optimist, was attended by Earl Frank, the pessimist. The seats being all filled. Dorothy Farber, who tripped in lightly after half of the excitement was over, enjoyed sitting on a tiny footstool. Marie Churchill, the chill in the crowd, Violet Connor, the man-hater, Helen Cottington, the runaway negress from the South, Eileen Fargen, the famous forger, and Lucille Hasz, the cosmetic lass, were sent to prison for disorderly conduct during the entertainment. Towards evening excitement was aroused by two messengers, Howard Rabuck and Bernard Schleden. from Castle Martal. They requested the King to allow Richard Stone, the giant killer, and Wilbur Pearson, Rose Kohlmever favorite knight, to go into the wilderness and rescue the family of Fabyan Wright and I.uella Wolters. There were Gilbert and Annette Meyer, the twins, Norma Hasz, the baby, Mary Hunt, the six year old, Charlotte Kleeber. the eldest, and Lawrence Gayne, the ruffian. The poor family had been imprisoned by Otto Kohlmever and his nobles. Among the beastly nobles were Arnold I.ueders, Harris Lund, Fred Neibuhr, Herbert Ninnemann, Robert Norton, Melvin Paylow, Carol Schluter, and William Schmeltzer. The King willingly sent his knights to set free the poor wretches. On the way back to the Castle Richard Stone heard terrible screams from a nearby hut. There he found a group of distressed women; some were bound in chains while others were gagged. Mildred Krev, Dorothy LaRue, Yalanda Lyckberg, Esther Medenwald, Jean Miller, Bernice Mayes, Milda Mueller, and Arleen Koenig were in the pitiful group. After having found them the wonderful knight took them with nim to the •—w ■ !� U I _ 1331 -C The GLEANER 1932 i good King, Larry. There they told their tale of woe. Marcus Lange, a real Bluebeard, had with the aid of John Scholl, Klmer Schmidt, Harold Schroeder. and Robert Wiening captured these beautiful girls and had cruelly and harshly made them their prisoners. The next day the King was again honored by a group of pretty young women who were his relatives, however. Eunice Palmer, the palm reader.

So many people had heard of the gracious King and his weakness for beautiful ladies that his Kingdom soon was called the Land of Amor. [341 r The GLEANER 1932 Top How left to ri ht : Robert Foss.

It is a most essential organization educationally and is also an excellen booster during football and basketball games. Under the able leadership of Mr. Jerdeman, we have built up an organization of which we are proud, and we are certain that it will make an excellent showing in the tournaments which it will attend. both at Viroqua, April 23. and at Wisconsin Rapids, May 6 and 7. Considerable credit should be accorded the band, for through their own efforts, the members have raised enough money to buy new uniforms, which certainlv are an essential part of the organization. They have raised this monev in a variety of ways—candy sales, matinee dances, a minstrel show, carnival, pencil sales and a chili supper sponsored by the band mothers. The band practices every Tuesday evening, and usually presents a program before the assembly on W ednesday. This gives it an opportunity to practice before an audience, as well as aiding them in their endeavor to present a good appearance before a group, since this is one of the points considered in judging bands at the tournament. Mr Jerdeman is instructing a number of grade pupils so that the band will not suffer greatly by losses through graduation, when these students come into high school.

Orchestra The Keedsburg High School orchestra under the capable directorship of Miss Stolte, has helped immeasurably in promoting the success of the programs sponsored by the school. By contributing their services before and between acts of plays, variety was added to the program, thus making it much more interesting. Practice is held one day each week, and Miss Stolte willingly gives or her time and patience to aid the members individually, in attaining a higher degree of proficiency. We wish to thank the orchestra for its services which so greatly aided in making our efforts a success, and we hope that it will continue to be an important organization in the school. - r ■ I JC 142] The GLEANER 1932 Left to Ritfhi Top Row Rodney Haines, Hadley Blonien, Mr. Steinwejr.

The students prosed themselves able speakers, and next year we should have a champion debate team, since they will have had considerable experience, a necessity in this activity. The question “Resolved, that compulsory unemployment insurance should be adopted in the State of Wisconsin,” proved to be a very interesting one, and when the question had been debated pro and con, we were not sure whether it would be an advantage or a disadvantage to adopt such legislation in the State of Wisconsin.

Dramatics The Masque and Dagger club has always aroused a great deal of enthusiasm among the high school students. Because of certain rules and regulations. everyone cannot be a member of the club. However, tryouts are given to all who would like to join the club. These tryouts are given by Miss Hickey and Miss Bliss. If the person shows talent he or she is given membership in the club. Since the membership is limited to fifty, the Seniors, Juniors, and Sophomores are given preference. When a student has been recommended for membership in the club by the Directoresses, he is initiated into the club at its next meeting by taking some part in a play, (before the club) pantomiming, or giving a reading. The meetings this year have been very interesting and educational, due to the efforts of the various committees which were appointed to arrange a program for the meetings, which occur every two weeks on Wednesday. Short plays have been presented before the club, reports have been given on the popular plays and playwrights of the recent seasons, and readings and pantomimes were cleverly chosen. The Club presented three One-Act Plays this year: The Beau of Bath, The Wedding, and the Game of Chess. These plays proved the ability of the members in acting, and aroused considerable comment by the audience. r 441 The GLEANER 1932 Top How Vera Brechtl. Anita Powell, Rose Kollmeyer.

QirW Qlee Club The Girl's Glee Club this year was composed of Freshmen, Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors, rather than as heretofor, when the Freshmen and Sophomores had a separate organization, and the Juniors and Seniors also had a glee club. Miss Stolte's object in combining the two organizations was to build a bigger and better club, and her efforts certainly were not in vain. The combined girl's glee club won the praise of all who heard it. Miss Stolte selected music well adapted to the voices in the Club and well suited to the occasions upon which it has ben sung. The Club is organized primarily to give musical training to interested students, to present an opportunity to observe good methods in conducting, to cultivate good taste in music, and to train the students to read music and detect good and bad harmony, besides the usual purpose of furnishing good music when occasion arises.

They have aided much in making the various programs presented by the school successful, bv contributing their services. Six girls from each class, Freshman, Sophomore, Junior and Senior, are chosen by Miss Stolte to make up these organizations. They hold rehearsals once a week, studying songs which are adapted to their ability, and they have succeeded in mastering many of the finer points of musical appreciation. The Sextettes work in conjunction with the other musical organizations of the school when they sponsor programs, and their services have proven invaluable. f 461 The GLEANER 1932 First Row Vernie Niebuhr.

The boys have displayed great interest and enthusiasm and have proven very responsive to the line training of their directoress. Rehearsals were held once a week. Thus far the boys seem to have an inferior complex, for they have not made many public appearances, but we are hoping that before the school year is over they will overcome this complex, and will allow us to judge their abilities as vocalists.

Latin Club The Latin Club was organized under the leadership of our genial Latin teacher. Miss Wendtland. Its membership is composed of students who have attained a certain degree of excellence in their study of Latin, and who are interested in the history of Latin through the ages. Occasional parties are given, one of which was very unusual, in that each member was compelled to sit upon the floor while eating his “Roman banquet.” Several members of the club wrote a Latin play which was presented at one of the regular meetings, and you who know the playwrights, must know that it was enjoyed by everyone present. (?) [481 The GLEANER 1932 1931 Calendar 1932 SEPTEMBER 8, 1931 School begins! Today the doors of the old R. II. S. were thrown open to all its children—young and old. It was an “event” in all of our lives, especially in the “Freshie’s.” The building had received a new dress throughout, and though certain individuals walked with lead in their shoes (so it seemed, at least), the majority of us have to admit that we enjoyed coming back, not knowing how long the novelty would last. The Presides were fascinated with the thought that they were in “High School” now, and spent their leisure moments acquainting themselves with their new surroundings and teachers. SKI'TKM BER IX. 1931 What a party! Our eyes are still filled with sleep, but what care we' If the Freshmen don’t feel at home now it’s their own fault, for the Seniors did all in their power to put them at ease. The “Grand March” was great fun (consider the leaders—.Miss Webb and Mr. Kracft) and how those green hairbows and neckties stood out! Parky’s orchestra certainly induced magnetism into our feet—just drew us out onto the floor and did we dance! When eleven o’clock rolled ’round, we had had our sufficiency of green ice cream and so we all departed, far from depressed. SEPTEMBER 2b, 1931 The first football game, and what a game it was! Our fellows certainly showed their prowess (?wonder why?) by defeating the resort-city team by a score of 19 to 7. More luck to you, fellows! OCTOBER 2 AND 3. 1931 The Annual Community Fair was held this week-end in the gym. This is always a big attraction, especially for the farmers of the community, as it is the time they may display their ability in doing good things. The rural schools contested for the much-prized cup, given to the school that presents the best program in the assembly whose community receives the highest number of points by winning prizes on their entries, which include baked goods, embroidery, and farm products, and finally, the school that wins the prize for the best booth. Excelsior School, of which Miss Dorothy Shultis is teacher, won the cup, lor the third consecutive time. Congratulations to them for their fine work.

JANUARY 8, 1932 The Tomah Indians journeyed here to-night, and we were again privileged to see a line basketball game. The score was 24-14 in our favor. JANUARY 15. 1932 We met our old rivals, Baraboo, on our Home floor to-night, but we were defeated, 24 to 1( . The game was a tine one, however, even though we were defeated. Baraboo stands out as the most likely candidate for the conference championship, not having lost a game so far. But we’ll see. JANUARY 20, 21, 23. 1932 We're not all frivolity-minded, as may be seen by the books end papers being toted by the students the past few days—not saying anything about the remarks being made by them. Yes, final exams are being given, and we’re all hoping that fortune will give us a kindly look. JANUARY 2 , 1932 Cold weather can’t stop our fellows! This was clearly seen by the fact that we won the game with Portage to-day, 31-21. JANUARY 29. 1932 Our neighbors. Rime Ridge, displayed a great deal of style before an interested crowd to-night, but were not able to fell our bovs, for we defeated them 31-17. FEBRUARY 4. 1932 The dramatics club presented its one-act plays to-day in the Badger Theater. The talent displayed by the members of the various casts was the cause for comment from the audience. The plays presented were: “The Beau of Bath,” “The Wedding,” and “The Game of Chess.” Congratulations to the Dramatic Club. Miss Hickey. Miss Bliss, and to the casts. FEBRUARY 5. 1932 Who says the Sophs can't give good parties? They’re an industrious lot—consider who the president is- and the party to-night was a huge sue cess. The gym was decorated in red and white, in harmony with the season. Valentine’s Day. Red hearts, spot lights, and picket fence enclosing the orchestra, transformed the gym into a virtual paradise. Heart-shaped pastries added a festive touch—(as well as calories.) • ( Mam FEBRUARY 12. 1932 This event rightfully deserves a full page in our Gleaner, but owing to scarcity of space, I will try to make a few words count. We won a most 9 1 [511 The GLEANER 1932 thrilling game from Baraboo to-night, 19-17. It was a notable victory in that it was Baraboo’s first defeat of the season, their first defeat in the new Baraboo High School gym, and our first victory over them in basketball in live years. Needless to say, the K. H. S. student-body was nearly wild with joy. Our old foes had promised us a party and many of the students gladly accepted the invitation and remained for it, dancing as on wings of air, rejoicing in their victory. The “Senior Breezes” was on the market to-dav. We extend our congratulations to the staff on their line work. FEBRUARY 19, 1932 Yiroqua journeyed here to-day, set in their determination to defeat us. Their expectations were fulfilled too, due to a crippled team, (flu) and the score was 23-9. FEBRUARY 2b. 1932 Our confidence in our team was partially obliterated to-night by a defeat at the hands of Richland Center. We had defeated them on their own floor in the early part of the season, so they probably felt that “turn about is fair play.” Our fellows had suffered the “ravages” of flu during the week, you know, and it weakened them to a great extent, for try as they would, the ball would not go through the hoop. The hopeless?- not quite score was lb-12. MARCH 4.1932 Viroqua was somewhat stunned to see our strong aggregation take a game from them tonight by a score of 23-13. We’re told it was a fine game—thanks to the squad for another victory. MARCH 10. 11. 12. 1932 The District Basketball Tournament was held at Madison this week-end.

That’s the main topic of conversation at present. Eight teams are represented in the Supplementary Basketball Tournament being held in the gym. They are Camp Douglas, Hillsboro, Elroy, Lime Ridge, North Freedom, Wilton, Spring Green and Wonewoc. Another “Senior Breezes” was issued to-dav. MARCH 18, 19. 1932 We’re enjoying Easter vacation—a welcome event, especially at this time. It gives us some time to catch up with our assignments anyway,—if we are minded that way. APRIL 8. 1932 The lunior Prom which was held to-night was one of the most beautiful affairs that any Junior class has ever presented. The gym was completely u ? transformed from a drab room into a beautifully decorated and colorful ballroom. Spotlights from various parts of the balcony threw colored beams of light upon the frolicking students. The orchestra also was very good. Everything, as a whole, helped to form a picture of loveliness. 1521 The GLEANER 1932 [53] r i The GLEANER 1932 APRIL 21. 22. 1932 “Minick,” the Senior Class play was presented in the Badger Theater these two days.

The dance was grand and everyone lamented the fact that the Loyalty Feast was over too soon. MAY 27. 1932 The Seniors bade farewell to their old alma mater with a hug-e all-school party. The gym was beautifully decorated and the refreshments were delish. JUNE 3, 1932 Commencement! With lagging footsteps (so it seemed) the Seniors ascended the stairs leading to the stage for the last time in their high school careers. The speaker’s address was very inspiring, and we hope that we may justify our parents’ faith in us, as well as that of the good citizens who have so graciously given of their time and money to give us an education, by embodying the highest ideals of manhood and womanhood throughout our lives. 1541 Flie GLEANER 1932 Charlie and Will There are two genial fellows about the school.

Keedsburg showed promise of giving some of her opponents some stiff competition before the end of the season. At the half the score was a tie 7-7, but keedsburg came onto the field in the second half showing plenty of pep and making two more touchdowns. The score at the end of the game was 19-7 in Reedsburg’s favor. This game brought out some fine performances from some of the newer players who were making their first appearance for the purple and white as well as from last year's veterans. OCT. 3—RICH LAND CENTER THERE This was our first conference game of the season. The less said about it. the better. Keedsburg was outplayed by the Richland Center team, but this was only natural because Richland Center had a much stronger team and a great many more candidates to choose from. The final score was Richland Center—31. Keedsburg—0. [591 The GLEANER 1932 OCT. 9— I1A K A BOO HERE On this date we met our old rivals, Baraboo, on the local field. The night before the game we held a huge mass meeting for which nearly the entire student body turned out. The meeting inspired the boys and they were determined to win over Baraboo. The teams appeared to be quite evenly matched, but Reeds burg failed to get the breaks.” The only scoring done during the game occured when a Baraboo player gained possession of the ball and raced almost fifty-live yards for a touchdown. The kick failed and the game ended b-0 in favor of Baraboo. OCT. 16—BARABOO THERE This game, like the one the week before was very exciting all the way through and again demonstrated to us that the two teams were Very evenb’ matched. In the first half Reedsburg played much better football than Baraboo and kept the ball in Baraboo territory most of the time. Toward the end of the half, after Reedsburg hail marched steadily down the held, Freddie galloped across the goal line for the first touchdown of the game. The kick failed and the score at the half was 6-0 in favor of Reedsburg. In the second half Baraboo played much better football than they had the first half. In the latter part of the third quarter a Baraboo man repeated the same stunt that had defeated Reedsburg the week before, when he made a Ewald Beth Max Grover Milton Brice Gilbert Harper Robert Fi-.ivrc Everett Faivre Emil Friede Marcus Lange Harold Luetkins Gilbert Montgomery T63] The GLEANER 1932 long run to the goal line behind marvelous interference. The trv for the extra point failed, but Keedsburg was declared offside on the plav, and the second attempt was good. OCT. 24 -SI'ARTA TIIKRE Keedsburg entered this game rated as the underdog, but pulled a sur prise by winning the game 7-0. Keedsburg outplayed her opponents in every quarter and repeatedly threatened the Sparta goal. Keedsburg's touchdown was made in the second quarter on a short pass. Sparta rallied in the last quarter, but was held in the last few minutes of play on Keeds-burg’s eight yard line. This was Keedsburg’s first conference win in two vears. XOV. II—SPRINT GREEX THERE Keedsburg took advantage of the half day Armistice holiday to schedule a post season game with Spring (ireen. The conditions under which the team had to play were the hardest of the season because the field was very muddy and was blanketed in a heavy coat of fog. Spring Green had a very strong team and defeated Keedsburg 13-2. Keedsburg’s two points were gained when Spring Green attempted a punt in the end zone. This game ended the 1931 football season.

During the first half there was no outstanding playing on the Reedsburg team, and it looked as though our team for 1932 would never develop into a really strong aggregation. The first half ended with Reedsburg leading 4-3. However, the second half was different. Reedsburg’s plays were run off like clockwork, and a comfortable lead was soon gained. When the gun went off at the end of the game, we were convinced that Reedsburg was bound to be a serious threat to the title. DEC. 18—RICHLAND CENTER THERE This was our first conference game, and it made Reedsburg one of the favorites in the title race of the South Central Conference. The first half, the team didn’t seem to get going and Richland Center gained quite a comfortable lead. In the second half the Reedsburg team could hardly be recognized as the same one that had been on the floor during the first half. It succeeded in running up point after point and at the same time held the:r opponents • scoreless during the entire half. The game ended 29-12 in Reedsburg’s favor. JAN. B—TOMAH HERE The strength of the local team was again demonstrated in this game, omah is known as a town that produces good basketball teams. I lowcvcr, Reedsburg outplayed their opponents throughout the game even though Tomah possessed a height advantage. The half ended 10-7 in Reedsburg's favor. In the second half the lead was further increased bv fine offensive work on the part of the Reedsburg team. The Tomah team wa: held to only four points during the second half. A feature of the game was the wonderful defense which Reedsburg put up against its opponents. The game ended with Reedsburg on the long end of a 24-14 score. 1621 The GLEANER 1932 J AX. 15 BARA BOO I IK UK 1 lie jinx which seemed to have been pursuing Reedsburg in its games with Baraboo for a number of years could not be broken in this game, and Barabon won by a score of 24-10. Karly in the game Baraboo gained a lead which it held throughout the game. Reedsburg’s defense seemed unable ' to cope with the last passing offense of the visitors until the third quarter T-whcn Baraboo failed to gain a point. Reedsburg began to find the basket in 1 • the last quarter, and 9 points were piled in comparison to Bamboo’s 8 points during the same period. In the second half there was no doubt but what Reedsburg outplayed Baraboo from all angles of the game. J AX. 22 KIXiKWOOl) THKRK This game was the first of a new series which are to be played with Edgewood in the future. Reedsburg outplayed her opponents in the first half, but the half ended with Edgewood leading by a 9 to 8 score. In the second half the Reedsburg team failed to click together, and Edgewood piled up 14 more points. During the entire second half Reedsburg was held scoreless. he final score by which Edgewood won was 23 to 9. JAN. 29 KIMK RTIXiK HKKK This game was a walk-awav for the Reedsburg team and nothing exciting occurred during the game. At the end of the lirst half Reedsburg led 19 to 3. During the second half the Reedsburg substitutes were used almost entirely and 12 more points were piled up while Lime Ridge gained 14 points. The final score was 31-17. FEB. 5-TOM AH THERE This was one of the most one-sided games of the season. Tomah had very little difficulty in defeating Reedsburg 32-17. In the early part of the season Reedsburg had no trouble at all in defeating Tomah on the home floor, but on their own floor Tomah played a much better game and showed a great deal of improvement. At no time during the game did Reedsburg threaten the Tomah lead. Tomah also had the advantage of height and the Reedsburg team found it difficult to break up the plays of its opponenets. f 63 7 The GLEANER 1932 ' s Ss 'f u FEU. 12—BARABOO THERE The team went down to Baraboo determined to gain revenge for the defeat it had previously suffered from its closest rivals. In the first few minutes of play Reedsburg gained a two point lead which it managed to hold throughout the game. They managed to defeat Baraboo by the close score of 19-17. This game was the most nerve-wrecking and exciting on the conference schedule because at no time as the game secure for either side. The victory for Reedsburg surprised the entire conference, for Baraboo had previously been undefeated. The victory also enabled our team to remain in the championship race of the South Central Conference. This game will go down in the history of the Reedsburg High School for it was the lirst time a Reedsburg basketball team had defeated Baraboo in a conference game m five years. FEB i9_viROyi'A HERE The Viroqua game came just at a very critical time and as a result our title hopes were blasted by a 23 to 9 loss. The week of the game nearly the entire first squad contracted the flu and as a result very little practicing could he done in preparation for the game. The boys showed their courage and school spirit in spite of their disadvantage and most of them managed to get back to school in time for the game, although they really should have been home in bed. On top of all this trouble there were so many students absent that there were hardly enough left to cheer the team on. We are not ashamed of the record shown by the team in this game; in fact, we are quite proud of it, because even though handicapped, the team was able to put through some of its plays and the boys showed that they possessed real grit and determination, which, after all, are two of the main objectives in the teaching of basketball as a sport. FEB. 26—RICHLAND CENTER HERE In this game the team appeared to have still been suffering from the effects of the flu, and we lost the game to a team we had previously defeated on their own floor by a large margin. The game was fairly close throughout and at no time did either side have a really safe lead. The half ended 7-6 in Reedsburg’s favor. In the second half a Richland Center man who was left unguarded succeeded in making several long shots, and consequently Richland Center forged into the lead. The lead was held throughout the entire game, but in the last quarter Reedsburg staged a rally, and cut down the lead and even threatened to win the game, but there was not enough time left. The game ended with Reedsburg on the losing end of a 10-12 score. M A RCH 4—VIROQUA T H ER E This was another revenge game for Reedsburg. 1‘vvo weeks previously Viroqua had defeated Reedsburg by a large margin, and we blamed it on the flu. Our suspicions were confirmed by this game because Reedsburg had no trouble at all in winning the game by a score of 23-13. This game ended our conference schedule and one of the most successful seasons Reedsburg has ever had. We feel confident that our toughest opponent was the flu epidemic and that if it hadn’t been for this, Reedsburg would be in a three way tie for the conference championship. NON-CONFERENCE—PORTAGE T11 ERE This was not a conference game and Reedsburg had little trouble in adding it to her column of victories. At the end of the first half Eortage led 12-7 but Reedsburg came back in the second half to win 31-21. Fouls were frequent during the game, 24 being called. 1641 rhe GLEANER 1932 Coach Kraeft Coach Del ontr Madison Distrid Tournament Because of its fine record during the season, the Reedsburg basketball team was invited to take part in the district tournament at Madison. There are three Madison teams in the district, so Reedsburg had some stiff competition to face. On the first day of the tournament Reedsburg met the strong Sun Prairie team. Sun Prairie had only lost one game and was at the top of the Madison Suburban Conference, but Reedsburg defeated them 23-14. Sun Prairie was held to only one field goal during the entire game. Fouls were numerous and even after the loss of two first-string men because of fouls, the team managed to hold its lead throughout the remainder of the game. On the second day Reedsburg met Wisconsin High of Madison, last year’s state champions. The game was one of the most exciting of the tournament. It was closely fought all the way through and the game was not secure for either team until the final gun. The Reedsburg defense stood up remarkably well and the team also managed to break through the strong Wisconsin High defense and gain a short lead. At the final gun Reedsburg s victory in this game made her eligible to compete for the championship on Saturday night against Fast High of Madison. The game with East High was lost in the first quarter. East succeeded in piling up 12 points before Reedsburg scored a single point. After the first quarter the game was more closely fought. The lead that had been gained by East, however, was too great to overcome. East had the advan-tage of height and she also had a wonderful block defense which was diffi- T cult to pierce. The final score was East—22. Reedsburg—10. The record of the team in this tournament is one of which to be proud. It was the first time in ten years that Reedsburg had attained such a high place in the district tournament. Also, two Reedsburg players, O’Keefe and Bowen, were given positions on the all tournament team. 165] The GLEANER 1932 Intramurals VOLLEY BALL CHAMPIONS Top Row: Lewis Fisher. Melvin Schultz.

As there were eight teams, the two teams in first place each received 7% points, the team in second 7 points, etc. A tournament was played at the end of the season and the scoring was done in the same way. The Brewers went through the tournament with no defeats; and therefore receiving 8 more points. This added to their 71 points gave them first place with 15% points. The Pile Drivers won third in the tournament and were runners up with a total of 13'j points. In the Giant Ball program each class had one team, composed of as many hoys in the class who wished to participate. At the end of the season the Juniors were ahead with no defeats. This gave them 4 points. The Seniors were second and received 3 points. In the tournament the Seniors were undefeated, so they received 4 points. The Juniors received second place and 3 points. These points when added up gave the Seniors and Juniors a tie for first. In the play of the tie the Seniors again defeated the Juniors and received first place. or . .

Everything has gone wrong. And, incidentally if this letter becomes altogether too boresome you know you have the privilege of depositing it in any handy waste basket. However I think you realize that one must give vent to his feelings somehow once in a while. Well, to begin, I overslept this morning, which made the whole thing just too complicated—for I had left my English assignment for this morning. Upon a hurried investigation I found that my pal. Old Ben, had stopped at exactly half past three—and you see, lie’s just like some folks 1 know—he can’t talk unless he’s wound up. Then I rushed down the stairs, grabbed a hot roll and made a mad dash for school. When I was almost there I found to my great provocation that 1 had forgotten my shorthand book, without which I knew I couldn’t enter class as our honorable Mr. Steinweg had very kindly informed us only yesterday that such forgetfulness would necessitate outside make-up work. This couldn’t exactly suit my fancy, of course, so I resorted to the only alternative—namely, running home to get it. And if I didn’t lose a pound or two in that wild goose chase!!—well—. Just as I slid into the typing room upon my return the last bell gave a hideous warning clang. And do you suppose I could type a line without 15 or 20 errors? It really was almost too disgusting. How 1 lived through this morning is just another question—with the words “You haven’t your English assignment” in the most nerve-wreekingly bold letters forever before me. And our History class wasn’t just what I’d call pleasant either. With a great conglomeration of a hundred and one excuses for English—such a useless preoccupation of mind!—do you wonder that when asked who the 4th President of the Union was I very dazedly responded: “1019.” The next few moments found me desperately looking for a mouse-hole while shouts of hilarous laughter filled the class-room. Then as I was rushing to Shorthand Class I bumped headlong into our Principal, Mr. Smith. My utter confusion and a jerky flow of apologies seemed only to add to his amusement. He asked me how I liked school by this time. I wanted to scream and shout at him that I never wanted to see the inside of a school again. But my memory of Nolan, “The Man without a Country,” composed my raw nerves to some extent and I very politely assured him that it was “deeee-eee-ee-ee-e-licious.” A strange hush pervaded the otherwise turbulent air here around the Music Room which only added to my embarassment, for what should I say to him? Still blushing feverishly I stumbled up the steps and dashed into the Shorthand-class room only about 1 4 minutes late. When this period, the fifth and one of acute misery finally ended I found myself scrambling down the stairs-—my hunger was almost impossible by this time—with the rest. Then lo! and behold! there went my History book with its fifty-leven papers full of historic information, notes, and caricatures of the teachers, on an area of what seemed a mile and all the students in my immediate vicinity were down on their hands and knees, picking them up and looking like so many chickens. Indeed, in my confusion I felt like Alice in Wonderland, having been so suddenly elevated—at least so it seemed. My stupidity was getting the better of me. I did. however, have the presence of mind to pinch myself, hoping every instant to wake up from a horrible nightmare—but to no avail. Presently I discovered myself by my locker without any further mishap, probably only by the intercessions of Venus, as it were, for how could the Gods but have noticed my seemingly eternal chagrin. Needless to say, I spent the rest of the day with my very best friend—my bed—to recuperate. Your cousin, Ambrose. 1741 The GLEANER 1932 Our Mechanical Marvel One long-to-be-remembered day last summer there was offered for sale in a local garage a certain Ford, Model T, of doubtful history and advanced age, which was that same day purchased for five dollars by a friend of mine. It was not long until I was allowed to share in its ownership, as were several other friends of ours until now it is called “our Ford” by no less than six young gentlemen of the community. This was all very well, hut soon we had the problem of transportation to cope with, for our limousine was destined to carry only two passengers. However, a tour of the city dump soon netted us an exceedingly rusty Ford live-passenger body with moldy upholstery which served our purpose very well when fastened with wire. Gasoline was furnished by any of us who happened to be in good financial condition; when we wanted oil we had only to drive to a filling station, wait until somebody drained the used oil from his car, and pounce like vultures upon the leavings. With these preparations completed and water in the radiator, we would push our “chariot” until it started and be off’ on our travels. Before we had taken many such trips in our “Yiber-eight” as we christened it. the reason for its low purchase price began to dawn upon us; to say that our pleasure car was delapidated would be putting it mildly. The motor knocked and clanked, a leak in the gas line threatened us with an explosion, the radiator was bottomless, reverse was broken, there was no fan belt, the tires fell to pieces, and it was barred from the main street as a menace to traffic. Still we have always managed to keep it in working order and have taken it on many extensive tours through the rural district, scaring everybody we met on the road with the noise of our approach. I’p to the present time our “Yiber-eight” has frozen, boiled, been overturned, and been run into, but the motor continues to clank faithfully, and we hope to drive it again soon.—Wm. Harper. Humor An Irishman working for a Dutchman asked for an increase in pay. The Dutchman replied: “If you are worth it, Pat, I will gladly give it to you. Now let us see how much work you do in a year. There are 365 days in a year, and you sleep eight hours a day, which makes 122 days. Subtract this, and 243 days are left. Now, you have eight hours recreation each day. This equals 122 days a year. Subtract, and 121 days are left. Furthermore, you must subtract 52 Sundays, leaving 69 days, less 14 days’ vacation leaves 55 days. You don’t work Saturday afternoons, which are equal to 26 days in one year. Subtract and 29 days still remain. Now, you get 1V6 hours for lunch, this makes 2 S days. Subtract, and 1 day is left. 1 always give you off on St. Patrick’s Day, so judge for yourself whether you deserve more money or not.
