Topmost among the memories which will never be forgotten, there is the cheerful, smiling face of Miss Bowden. Anyone who has had the pleasure of working with her on Gleaner staff, or who has taken iunior or senior English under her guidance, knows she has a heart of gold and as fine a character and personality as ever can be found. She is always ready to lend a helping hand to anyone who might need it. Words cannot fully express the glad- ness and ioy she has brought to our school. We consider you, Miss Bowden, one of our grandest and dearest friends. Many have richer been than she, The fame of many still survives, But long remembered she will be Who taught us how to live our lives. We, the Senior Class of l947, dedicate our Gleaner to you, Eleanor Bowden, a true friend and teacher. 1- 'bv , ,X CTN L ,.+- :F f x ,f mf fax as I nl M K 4' l JV Alujfs n 25 Y -l,,.4-qv 1, la' H51 LLL. b ?-5 T e ll Andy 9P9 9 e Qfmuycbygoeday Ilg thl touf , 1, ss '- ' The fr e ds d clc tes y fthe WE 'D LIKE TO BRING TO YOUR ATTENTION DEAR SENIORS: We have tried to educate you in a way of citizenship, capable of sound decision and vigorous action, a citizenship that is morally sturdy, aware of spiritual values, and convinced that every individual has a responsibility to uphold and a contri- bution to make.

As the Fair year comes to a close, members who have participated in its activities for four years will graduate as the Class of '47, From the time that they entered the entrance gate as green frosh until now when they are about to leave the grounds by the exit as seniors, a great many events occurred which will be treasured as well as remembered in future years. Their first determination was to receive the best education possible during these four brief years. These stu- dents realized that their future in the world de- pended on the success of their high school train- ing. This realization was proved by the high aca- demic records of many. Besides education, many activities added enioyment to school life. Al- though this was one of the smaller classes in re- cent years, its size was not a detriment to the amount of ability found among its members. It had many fine athletes and musicians as can be seen by glancing over the number from the Class of '47 who went out for football and basketball, band, choir, and chorus. Many also were boosters of clubs. Loyalty meant a lot to this class and as iuniors they were strong competitors against the seniors in determining the ownership of the trophy. Other outstanding events which they recollect are the parties they had. They gave the first one as sophomores, choosing the theme, A Rendez- vous with Cupid, which was cleverly worked out in true Valentine spirit. Sadie Hawkins Day was the theme of the party given as iuniors. These were very entertaining but the one that really provided the most excitement was given this year. The theme was Treasure lsland. At it the fresh- men were officially initiated. This is always the hi- light of every senior party, and as usual everyone had a good time. Great acting ability was found among members of this class who gave the com- ical class play Too Sweet for Sixteen. This play was typical because it was about teenagers. Whenever these seniors hear the melodious song l'm Always Chasing Rainbows, their minds wan- der back to the wonderful times they had decora- ting the gym for the Junior Prom. Memories such as these are shared by all. In years to come, many boys and girls of this class will be among the prize winners of the largest Fairground of all - our nation.

The daring feats of David Smith, Salty Farber, Jerry Faga, and Walter Shedleski as they passed the pigskin gave the spectators many a thrill. After a short intermission the grandstand was once again in an uproar as Berning and Faga of the varsity appeared on the scene making the basketball season very successful for R. H. S. Leaving the grand- stand, we head for the midway where we see many more iuniors participating in various events. Gwen Frie- bel, Charles Brylla, Irene Reynolds, and Dorothy Schuett were but a few of the many iuniors who pro- vided music for our fair. Prize winners in the scholastic rating at the fair were Kathryne Haugh, Mary Bodendein, Irene Reynolds, and Joyce Harder. The Junior Jamboree, the highlight of the month of November, proved to be an outstanding suc- cess. The activities of the year were climaxed by the Junior Prom.

Again this year, many fam- ' t h 'I' f ces could be seen at various parts o t e :rar a grounds participating in sports and activities. They ,started the year by electing Joyce Hulbert, Fl d Har president, Joan Mayfield, vice-president, oy ris, secretary-treasurer, and Betty Montgomery, Loy- alty repr pants along the way. Many of the sophomores took part in the thrilling I- tivities held at the fair. The grandstand was a ac ways packed with cheering fans when Bob Schroeder, A Ral h Johansen, and Don Schroeder took Jim renz, p art in the exciting game of football. The spectators P will also never forget how smoothly these boys played basketball. The sophomore class was very proud of them for winning letters, which is one of the highest honors given at the fair. The sophomore's main feature of the fair was the super side show, The Heart Hop, which they pre- t d February 15 lt was a stupendous extrava- sen e . ganza with fascinating music by Parkhurst's orchestra.

On September third, a group of new competi- tors entered the fair-grounds to see how many prizes and blue ribbons they could take with them. These frosh were formally initiated on October l3 at the Senior Class Party. The date, contrary to superstitious sayings, proved to be a lucky one for this class, as we can already see by the achievements they have made. To begin with this class had an enrollment of l27 students. They chose very capable members of their class to show them their way through the fair-grounds. They were Pat Dorow, president, Robert Jewell, vice-president, Marian Jermo, secretary-treasurer, and Marcella Mu:how, Loyalty representative. Many interesting activities were offered to the students this year besides the regular activities.

A large number of boys were interested in competing for the prizes offered for athletics. They played football and basketball under the big top. They made the dust fly on the race tracks. Many others, including girls, ioined the musicians to help entertain the crowds in the grand-stand. Also, a large number were in- terested in using their vocal talent in enter- taining visitors. These ioined the music clubs and organizations including choir and chorus. This class will go down in the fair's history for receiving many blue ribbons and prizes. 24 Marcella Muchow, Loyalty representative, Marion Jermoi, secretary-treasprer. ii fi xx... .

The rous- ing strains of The Star Spangled Banner preceded each football and basketball game, and at Homecoming, the pep band help- ed to enliven the spirits of the participants and spectators. Strutting maiorettes and purple and white uniforms could be seen while the band paraded at football games, the Armistice Day ceremony, and other affairs of school and community.

This year's fair was a typically exciting and eventful place. The many attractions along the midway and in the grandstand kept the staff fairly iumping. Ralph O'Connor, editor of the Gleaner, and lively Mary Buelow, co-editor, deserve a big hand for their long hours of weary toil.

The copy editor, Marian Hanusa helped the following in writing copy, Myrtle Meyer, Dorothy Schluter, Joyce Harder, Kathryne Haugh, Mary and Marian Bodendein, Irene Reynolds, and Lucille Good. Typ- ing was done by Irene Reynolds and Mary Boden- dein. lt is natural to leave the best till last and in handing out honors, that is what we have done, for the staff believed that Miss Bowden, their advisor, was tops! The activity periods, besides many evenings were spent working on this year- book.

Har F This section of the Fair attracted the interest of mony as they passed along the Midway. This branch of the Fair was under the direction of Mr. Feuerstein and the participants were ably coached by Miss Meracle, Miss Piquette, Miss Van Roo, and Mr. Mayfield. The inter-class competition was keen as the finalists competed for the honors in the main room on March 14. The winners - Jean Schluter, humorous declamation, George Hanusa, serious declomation, Betty Montgomery, extem- poraneous reading, Kathryne Pulvermacher, ex- temporaneous speaking, Charles Brylla, oration, and Ralph Hyzer, original oration - represented R. H. S. at the league meet at Portage on March 18. Here Charles Brylla, Kathryne Pulvermacher, and Jean Schluter won honors for R. H. S. by win- ning A ratings which entitled them to compete meyer, . Melcher, D. Gregory, S. Dohner. in the contest at Fort Atkinson. We sincerely con- gratulate these prize winners. We maintain - we contend - we propose - No, it's not a new song title, it's undoubtedly the debate squad verbally battling the issue of Gov- ernment Medicine. This is the first debate club R. H. S. has had for a number of years. The mem- bers were lucky enough to have Mr. Feuerstein to coach them, and if he has acquired any gray-hairs that's probably the reason. The debaters presented a program for the Kiwanis Club iand had Q deli- cious dinnerl and a main room program. The teams participated in debates with Richland Cen- ter, Tomah, and in the finals at Madison. So we warn you, don't start arguing about Government Medicine with a debater because you won't have a chance. J. Harder, Mr. Feuer- stein, E. Hough, L. Koun, H. Dobson, R. Rohr, C. Pawlisch, K.

Miss Meracle lead and directed this new club featured at our Fair this year. Forty-five members were divided between the two groups. During the meet- ings, demonstrations were given and books about plays and actors were read. Many of the members took declamations and others kept scrapbooks of clippings about stage plays, stage settings, and make-.up. They gave several productions in Main Room. One was a superb comedy called Mush- rooms Coming Up. The all girl cast was expertly handled by Verla Reinfeldt, Charlene Toeder, Syd- ney Rouse, Sue Dohner, Betty Von Behren, and Frances Melcher. One star that almost stole the show was Toby Dohner, a Boston bull dog, who played the part of Bonnie Belle. These perform- ances can be remembered by all that saw them. Scribblers Club was organized this year by Miss Meracle for the purpose of giving any potential poets and writers the chance to develop their talents. After studying poetry, stories, and plays written by modern writers, they attempted to imi- tate their style and technique. Who knows, per- haps someday, one of these people might be- come a famous author. T7 , Seated: L. Schroeder, B. Jaech, D, Farber, R. Rohr. Standing: J. Hulbert, Miss Meracle, L. Kcun. Back row-R.

Making scrap- books and charts, building aquariums, classifying plants and animals, and raising flowers occupied these participants during the activity period. Hikes and a trip to the greenhouse provided diversion from the usual routine. Waldemar Nimmow was elected president of the group. Pen Pals is an organization for those who like to write and receive letters. Each member has at least one correspondent in a foreign country. Be- sides personal gratification of writing and receiv- ing letters, the members are promoting interna- tional friendship and are helping to improve cul- tural relations between countries. This club is a good opportunity for those who are interested in stamp collecting. Mrs. Laper proves to be a very capable leader of these groups. The Monday group has selected Evelyn Hirst as president, Mau- reen Byrnes, vice-president, and Ardith Harvey, secretary and treasurer. The Tuesday group offi- cers are Geraldine Harmeyer, president, Shirley Peterson, vice-pres., and Sylvia Licht, sec'y-treas. Row 1-Mrs. laper, D. Burris, S. Mes ke, D. Egeland, D. Elfers, V. Kruse M.

The boys have gained some valu- able experience and training. They gave the prize to the plain, filling foods which can be used for hunting, fishing, or camping trips, and some of their first experiments were French toast, squaw, on carne. Some of the things they have learned which will be valuable outside the nds are how to sew, press a suit, and corn, and chile c fairgrou pack a suitcase. i Row 1-I. Schyvinck, E. Myl- rea, R.

This booth, under the direction of Mr. Lathrope, has attracted many sharp-shooters who have tried for the many prizes of- fered. The boys practiced diligently and then competed successfully against Richland Center and Wis- consin Dells. During the year the members were able to earn awards of pro-marksmen, marksmen, sharp- shooter, sharpshooter first class, and Bar l. Row 1-Mr. lathrope, B, loiewski K. Volk A. Beh k G.

Many interesting th' h ings ave been learned by the boys under Mr. Mayfield. This activity has turned out to be one of the most interesting clubs on the Midway.

In the spring when most boys' thoughts turn to fishing, they made their own bait and went on fishing trips. Various times during the year some very fine movies on different phases of hunting and fishing were shown.

This year they participated in the Livestock Show at the County and State Fairs where many prizes were won. Mr. Mitchell helped the boys in many different activities during the year, including basketball and softball games played with the neighboring schools. Some very useful information has been learned by the club members during the year which may be applied in their farm life.

Tournaments were held between various teams, between the faculty and the girls, and be- tween normal school teams and our own girls.

S. students never had to worry about entering or leav- ing the Fair as the traffic was ably directed by the patrol boys. The division was led by Captain Jack Clossey. The aim of the patrol was to prevent accidents and make our iourney along the Midway safe. Hats off to the patrol boys of R. H. S. We're proud of you. Hustling, bustling, hurrying and scurrying around the Fair, this pint-sized newspaper staff gathers bits of lished news to be pub- in the Times Press each week to inform parents and friends as to what is happening at school.

Eugene Hough a member of this year's gradu- ating class, distinguished himself and his school by winning a place in the Sixth Annual Science Talent Search which was sponsored by the West- inghouse Company and Science Service. Eugene was one of forty boys and girls from schools all over the United States and the only one from Wisconsin to become a finalist. Eugene left for Washington, D. C. on February 27 where he at- tended a five-day Science Institute and competed for a scholarship, winning a SIOO award to be used for college expenses. Of course, the high point of his entire trip was an interview with President Truman when he presented the President with gifts from the Reedsburg Chamber of Com- merce. Eugene began his career in science when ga. he was but a wee lad in grade school when he endangered the lives of his family by doing ex- periments in the basement. During his iunior year in high school, he was given a Wisconsin Achieve- ment Test in chemistry which showed that he had unusual ability in the field of science. As a result, he was exempt from the remainder of the high school course and completed a five semester-hour course in college chemistry last fall with a grade of The fact that Eugene is one of the leaders of his class scholastically, was a crack photo- grapher for the Gleaner, acted in the class play, is a champion golfer, and takes a vital interest in school activities proves that he is an all-around fella.

The grand stand is the big center of attraction at any fair. Feats of great daring and skill are pre- sented there. At our fair, football is one of the main features that takes place in the grand stand. This fall, a week before school started, a great many fellows who never had the chance to play foot- ball before were seen practicing for the com- ing fair down by the grand stand at the ball park. This year, the seventh period was set aside for activ- ities, making it possible for the out of town boys to play football. Everyone feels confident that many boys have gained a great deal of experience under the guidance of the new trainer, Mr. Krueger and his assistant trainers, Mr. Johannes and Mr. Feuerstein. ln the first game against Tomah, the Indians added another scalp to their credit by defeating an in- experienced fighting eleven from Reedsburg by a score of 39-I2. The following week, they were hop- ing for revenge, but lost a tough game to Edgerton by a score of I3-O. Even though beaten twice, the Purple and White went down to Stoughton, hoping to defeat the previously unbeaten team, but Stoughton pulled away in the final quarters to a 29-0 score. The next week the Beavers played one of their arch rivals, Portage. The Black and Orange were ahead throughout the game, although the R. H. S. boys put up a vigorous battle all the way. The Richland Center squad felt the onslaught of a fast and aggressive playing on the part of the R. H. S. team. Then came the game of the season - Baraboo. Both teams played a hard fought, scoreless first half, but in the second half, Baraboo rallied for two touchdowns while the Beavers made only one. In the' last game, the team played its best game of the season against Wisconsin Dells, gaining possession of the Blue Ribbon prize, the Helland Memorial trophy, by winning by a score of 20-I2.

The most stupendous, amazing, and colossal event to take place at the grandstand was the Homecoming game between Reedsburg and Portage. This great show started at noon with the parade of hoboes in the high school auditorium followed by class skits and a magnificent parade of floats down Main Street. Grand prize of three dollars for the best student hobo was given to Kathryn Pulvermacher and two dollars to Miss Inman for being the best faculty hobo. The seniors won the grand prize for presenting the most outstanding skit and members of homeroom 204 received theater tickets for having the most ap- propriate float. The long-awaited game was played in the evening at the grandstand. Following the game, the great day ended with a very successful dance, with King Earl Mylrea and Queen Marilyn Kowalke reigning over the affair.

WITH THE BASKETBALL TEAM OF OUR FAIR The white ribbon went to our basketball team for placing third in the Southern Ten Conference along with Baraboo and Portage. This year's team trained by Coach Krueger was an exceedingly rangy one which proved helpful many times in getting rebounds. By using sophomore and iunior boys a great deal, a great deal of experience was gained, and a better team is expected to be ready to start the season next fall. With the help of their team mates, Bill Berning and Bob Schroeder finished in fifth and sixth places respectively in the individual scoring race. Some of the games were so close that until the last minute of play each team had a chance for the victory. Baraboo, our arch rival, was beaten both times in fast and hard-fought games before record-smashing crowds. This made our season complete, for every- one looks forward to winning these games. At the end of the regular season of play, the Bea- vers entered the Columbus Regional Tournament. They defeated Columbus the first night and then scored the upset of the tournament by defeating a highly rated team from Watertown, only to be defeated in the championship game by Madison East. Next year's squad will feel the loss of the four graduating seniors, Don Richards, Bob Hra- bovsky, Stuart Fondrie, and Jack Clossey. Here's hoping next year's basketball season ends as well as this one did. S C HE D U L E We They We They We They Nov 20, Mauston .... 27 40 Dec. 20, Portage ..... 36 38 Feb. 6, Wis.
