These final months of rehearsal have been hectic in a way but lots of fune too. It would be hard to recognize in our confident and hardworking cast of seniors, the lowly freshmen who entered R.H.S. in September, 1949. They were officially accepted as members of the cast in the Senior Fanta Sea with King Neptune leading initiation. The actors who led them through the first year in the new setting were jim Roloff, presidentg Bill Roewer, vice president, june Piskey, sec'y-treasurer, Bill Varnes, loyalty representative. Many students showed their acting abilities, by participating in band, choir 81 athletics. To prove they are a hard-working, energetic group, they placed 3rd in loyalty. Ushering them in as sophomores, Gene Reynolds took the lead, acting as president. His capable assistants were Mary Schaffitzel as vice president, Betty Schirm- ang, sec'y-treasurer, 8: Pat Byrnes as loyalty representative. Along with hard work there muSt be some fun too, so they entertained the entire student body at the Cottonrail Hop. Displaying atheltic ability, jim Roloff, Lowell Darrow, Erwin Hissey, john Gschwind, and Gene Rey- nolds brought sophomores fame on the varsity basketball squad, Again this year, Paula Krue- ger and Mary VUarren were A-squad cheerleaders. Placing second in Loyalty was quite a feat for the class of '52. They continued their steps toward higher honors by a new election sys- tem and by electing a separate prom king. jerry Hutchens and Alma Schaefer reigned over the junior prom at which jerry Billington's orchestra carried out the theme April Showers. The critics gave high reviews of the beautiful April prom. Mary VC'arren was selected by the performers to guide their class through a very successful year. Bud Harmeyer as vice presi- dent, Mary Schaffitzel as secretary treasurer, Lois Thies, junior Doro and Jerry Hutchens as loyalty representatives helped her to prepare the class for their dress-rehearsal. Miss Finnegan directed the class of '52 through the first three years. john Gschwind, who attended Badger Boys State, and Lois Theis, who attended Badger Girls State, received information which will prove helpful in facing the audience. Nine boys received R's for football and the varsity bas- ketball squad was centered around the juniors. Now we see them just before the Opening curtain. The Big Y'C'heels opened the year by initiating the lowly frosh at Captain Kidd's Brawl. Leading parts were given to Bob Rindfleisch who was portrayed as the president, Darrell Blank, vice-president, Diane Stoeckman, secretary-treasurer, Bonnie Berning, David Burmester and jerry Kelly as loyalty representatives. Music and athletics played a major role during their last year with many seniors performing. Mrs. Laper helped in directing them be- fore curtain call. The senior class play Take Care of My Little Girl proved helpful in pre- paring them for facing the final audience. When the final curtain is drawn, the critics will give the class of '52 an excellent review. jtfk if
