L Vv'inat Who is he 7-This entertaining little fellow who is forever poking his nose into clubs, classrooms, and campus activities, and who seems to take such an inquisitive interest in a year in which, for the first time in their high school careers, the Class of IQ46 were able to experience and enjoy the privileges of an education devoid of any war time uncertainties, tension, and suspense, a year in which they were able to arrive at school in daylight, have almost free use of their jalopies and family cars, and, with more lenient draft regu- lations, no longer fear a call to service but could look forward to receiving a diploma with the rest of their class. Who let him in? Must we confess-we members of the 1940 I-Iodag Staff? Perhaps wed better let him speak for himself. i'AIl right, Homer, commence. UI-Ii, Folks! I'm Homer Hodag. I represent the spirit of all those underclassmen yet to come and I'm so nosey I just had to see what this great institution called Rhinelander High School is all about. Don't mind meg I'II be very much on my best behavior, you'II hardly know I'm around. Take over again, Staff, and Iet's get going. If X G YAY!! Q ,.

Weinlick, our principal, Cand a good- natured one at thatj is a graduate of Nloravian College and received his masters degree from the University of Wisconsin. His inner sanctum is a small corner of the ugeneral ofhcen and you will see him working there almost any time of the day. Although his 'iYou are just the one l wanted to see! can put terror in the stoutest of hearts, leven Homersb we hrmly believe that he is doing a grand job in the best way possible.

Ohde with football and helps supervise intramural basketball Page 8 Lawrence College furnished the training for our geometry teacher, Miss Van Patter. Miss Van Pat, as the students call her, is a master of the strange figures that puzzle most of us. Her habit of remembering birth dates of so many of the student body makes us wonder if she isn't a second Billy Mitchell. , . NH ' UNION' llffllli, TK!! Q' lik Miss White received her training from the University of Wisconsin. Her history classes, both Modern and United States, are very interesting, The fact that she keeps candy bars in her cupboard as a Girl Reserve project, makes her room a very popular place. Cn certain nights of the week, you can hear, above the shushing of lvliss Nlantor, the sound of arguing voices coming from Room zo. Although she also teaches history and algebra which she specialized in at the University of Wisconsin, she possesses a masters degree in history. YJ 'D SQS5. Our chemistry teacher, Mr. Anderson, received his training at Wesleyan. Directly before coming to Rhinelander to teach this year, he acted as explosives supervisor in the War Department at kloliet, Illinois. Andy, as he is fondly known by the students, has charge of the Science Clubg and the intriguing experi- ments and his personality seem to draw a large crowd to his room at all times. Page Being a biology teacher, Mrs. Sauer fills her windows with flowers and plants, and collects all types of worms and insects. The students in her classes have to learn such long tongue twisters as pteridoctyl and spirella, but this graduate of the University of Wisconsin makes the subject she teaches so interesting, nobody minds the hard work. Mrs. Sauer also has charge of the Nature Club. f?-x far 1 3 1, vu. tml, QL 4 x 5 x . - X Une of the new mem- bers of our faculty this year is Eunice Mills. Miss Mills graduated from St. Olafs College at Northfield, Minne- sota, and came to us to teach Spanish and Biol- ogy. Along with these two subjects she super- vises the activities of the Spanish Club. We hope to see her pleasant smile in Room 9 again next year. Page io .-I Another new member of the faculty this year is Lorraine Merlcle, who came from Ripon College to teach Sophomore English. Miss Mer- l4le's spare time is usually taken up with the Forensic group and if you hear anyone spouting a bit of declam, you'll know that they are merely trying to satisfy Nliss fvlerlcles peppy demands. .V 4 .g ' Z' ,453 E 7 '.5:i.5L:,gE.. 4-W f- ' - ff .1 cy Q- fg E U2 From the Uni- versity of Wiscon- sin, also comes our junior English teacher, Miss Fene- lon. As class ad- visor, she super- vises the junior Prom, that dance of all dances, be- sides training all extemp reading and speaking contest- ants. ijgkilsa a .. .Q . :kwa-Q3 .- f 1. ,, E i f Ef f' ty .f-. ' ff Miss johnson grad- uated from the College of Gustavus Adolphus, St. Peter, Minnesota, and is a very capable teacher of Latin and Sophomore English. The Latin Club is her pride and joy, so no wonder that she enjoys those meetings to the fullest. Besides teaching Senior English and acting as Senior Class advisor, Miss Schoenfeld also has the huge task of supervising the editing of the l-IODAG. She graduated from Beloit College and re- ceived her masters degree in English from the University of Wisconsin. We never hope to increase our vocabularies as she thinks we should, and if we lack a cultural background on graduating from high school, it will be through no fault of hers. Page 1 1 . . . 'Zfacdianal daijecifi me a4amea.'4 Miss Schultheis studied com- mercial work at Whitewater State Teachers' College. Her days are full of strange curlicues and we don't see how some of them can make any Sense. Perhaps there is-a knack to it that we havent discovered. At least she seems to be extremely successful when it comes to training girls for stenographic positions here in Rhine- lander and elsewhere. .. A., .V .1 'sw if-.,, 2 ni Q.. l, K ,f,-Flair f .

The College of St. Scho- lastica has given us a fine teacher in Miss Whitney She has the din of type- writers in her ears all day yet she never seems to mind. She even directs the Com mercial Club and seems to enjoy it. M K Whitewater State Teachers' College sent us our Commercial law, bookkeeping, and general business teacher. Miss Baum- gartner cares for the student association accounts also. ? 5 3 '-3 G CS Kingofmanual arts in the shop de- partment is lwlr. Baker, graduate of Stout Institute, Menomonie, Wis- consin, where he re- ceived his masters degree. The boys love his lectures on life! f' A new commercial instructor arrived at our institution the second semester. A graduate of Whitewater Teachers' College and formerly a member of our inspired faculty, lX4r. Koudelik left in IQ4Z to serve his Uncle Sammy. Needless to say, were all glad to see his happy face around the halls again. :LU 'L Q' I I Q' ng -sf D-C hd x Bert 'lqragai is well known to all of us as an alumnus of RHS., so he really needs no intro- duction. He trained in manual arts and draw- ing at the Colorado State Teachers' College and returned to Rhine- l-ander to teach. Al- though he teaches only mechanical drawing at present he also does some very lovely art work and artistic letter- ing. rfqx ? .L 5 fs we-it 5 ' Page I3 f?

Besides showing hungry girls how to cook, she manages to train our cheerleaders, produce our plays, arrange our homecoming celebrations, and put on feeds for our teams, Without ivliss Young our school just couldnt run. i There seems to Qc be more to sewing i fi gl , thansimplythread- ing a needle, and Miss Heistad knows T M all about it from her days at Stout A- Institute.

Along with instructing- the S Dev, 6,05 of Q ge 'fist C J' 1 K:-I -2 Page I4 high school vocal groups, lvliss Brandt has charge of all grade school music. The instructor of the band and orchestra, Mr. Dal- lenbach, is a gradu- ate of the Univer- sity of Wisconsin, where he received his masters degree in instrumental music. Through his efforts our band and orchestra have put on some fine exhibi- tions this past year.

Despite the long lectures and reprimanding, the hard hours of exercise, and the days spent in contest training, all the fellows think he's tops. i 1 Our librarian IS ever ready to lend a hand to bewildered students. Miss Calkins, who received her train- ing at Milwaukee State Teachers' College, seems to know the where- abouts and contents of each book in our library. Silence! Others are at work seems to be her motto. Page IS n 0 0 W M S 0 0 0 SOPHOMORE CLASS OFFICERS President ...... ..,. J im Palm Vice-President ...,. ..,.

Webster, M, Shelbrack Our float, which we prepared for the Homecoming parade, failed to win any recognition, to the disappointment of the group of ambitious juniors who worked hard on it, but this failure was made up for by our great dramatic debut in the Class Play, A Case of Springtime, which was presented November zo, to the relief of all cast members and the great enjoyment of the large audience which overflowed the school auditorium. Our Spring Prom, the party to top all parties, was of course a success and something that each and every junior who was present, will long remember. And last, but not least, we boast of the Sampson- like athletic specimens which we contributed to our schools football and basketball teams. We are sure D that without them, both sports would have suffered much. cf , X We, of the class of '47, have tried to achieve much XL' M in our junior year, so that our school might be proud 'H of us, and if we have succeeded, it is due not only to the students who have participated in the above men- XX tioned activities, but also to the teachers who were so ,XT willing to give us advice when we needed it.

In the warm days of September, shortly before the opening day of school, about 5o Hodag gridders reported to Coach Ohde, as football drills in preparation for the tough Wisconsin Valley Conference began. Ohde started the season with only io veterans and a good-sized but inex- perienced line. With a tough schedule of games on the docket, Ohde was heard to remark, Give us a line and at least one replacement for every position and our troubles are over. Fischer, Kennedy, Coach, Becker T PCT.

A heavy Tiger squad fought back in the last quarter to threaten the uncrossed RHS. goal, only to be stopped by the final gun on the I-Iodags' twenty yard line. Crippled by injuries to Bruck- ner, Lewis, and Yurich, mainstays of the squad, which sidelined them for much of the game, the team failed to impress their foes as a definite threat to the Valley crown. I-lodags crash the Raiders' Line Clance Cleary highly touted Savaske and other Merrill ball toters. Becker and Berquist With one vic- tory under their belts, the I-lodags took on a powerful Rapids team in their second game of the season, All but driv- the Hodags ran up a ing the Red Raiders out of the bowl by their inspired play, I3-O halftime score and definitely proved to the fans who saw the game that they were in the thick of the title race. Bruckner, Fischer, and Moritz slashed the Rapids line time and again for sizeable gains and two touchdowns. The second half was primarily a defensive game for the l-lodags, with Rapids registering the only score on Ritchay's go yard touchdown jaunt which brought the final score to 13-7. The highly rated Merrill Bluejays met and bowed to a superior Hodag squad by a score of zo to 7, to give the Green and White their third victory of the season. Freshman Bob Kennedy crashed through the Bluejay's line to block two punts, which he recovered, thereby setting up two of the scores for the l-lodags. Under the direction of diminutive Benny Lewis at quarterback, the home team showed effective preparation in a smooth attack and alert defense. A line which rarely cracked under the Merrill offense was marked with excellent play at ends by Sparky Briggs and Tom Cleary, who made the afternoon miserable for the Bluejays test the I-lodag ends Page so Rhinelander kept its slate clear for the year with a 27-7 win over Hurley. For the major portion of the first half, the Hodags were in a daze, not quite understanding what was happening, except for veteran back, Bob Fischer. Fischer made the first touchdown on a forty-four yard run, after knocking off io yards in two previous tries. After a sustained drive ending in a touchdown by the Midgets, the Hodag team clicked again. Veterans Lewis, Moritz, Bruckner, and Fischer put on a prolonged drive, which, with a 25 yard pass from Fischer to Cleary, put the Hodags on the seven yard line. From the seven, Moritz picked up a lateral and took the ball over for a goal. Receiving the second half kick-off, Fischer, Bruckner, and Lewis powerhoused the team to Hurley's one- foot line. From there Bruckner blasted through for the third touchdown. An anxious moment on the bench The Hodag juggernaut, which had rolled un- impeded over four straight victims, was finally stopped by Wausau in a I2-6 Homecoming thriller played before z,5oo fans, the largest crowd ever to see a game in the Rl-l.S. bowl. The determined Hodags scored early in the game after a sustained Homecoming Parade drive of go yards, when Bruckner circled left end 'for a touchdown. Wausau countered a few minutes later to tie the score and then tallied again in the third quarter for the winning touchdown. All extra point attempts failed. The Hodags started a promising fourth quarter drive when a I3 yard lateral pass was completed, Fischer to Lewis, on the Wausau zo, but the drive fizzled on a Hodag fumble and Wausau retained its position as king- pin in the Valley Conference. Clance Cleary and Sparky Briggs starred at ends by breaking up every end run the Wausau backs attempted. Fischer Scores Page 40 A Line Buck In a game which amounted to one of the highest combined scores in the Wisconsin Valley Conference history, the Hodags whipped Stevens Point 42-27, for Hodag victory number five. The game was featured by long passes and runs as Bob Fischer pitched a S3 yard touchdown pass to Ray lvloritz on the io yard line, and jack Bruckner pushed through the line for consistent gains. Tim juday, reserve quarterback, set the seasons record by booting the pigskin through the uprights for six consecutive extra points. Excellent play characterized the whole team, and Coach Ghde sent in everyone on the bench. The second and third stringers kept the game on ice in the second and fourth quarters. Chink Deau The Rhinelander-Antigo game, always a gridiron thriller, once again pleased a large crowd of football enthusiasts, at least the Rhinelander portion of them. With the task of retaining the coveted l-lodag bell for the third straight year and also second place in the Valley Conference, the Hodags tore through Antigo at will, to run up a 19-o lead at half-time. Early in the first quarter, Finger, Antigo fullback, fumbled a l-Iodag punt. Mraz recovered on Antigos 2-yard line, and the 1 Q Hodags scored after two downs. As the first quar- Bmckner Mraz Moritz Lewig Fisdner ter ended, Fischer intercepted an Antigo pass and Cleary,,Yurich,,BriggsV ' raced 68 yards towards the Antigo goal before he was brought down. Then, as the second quarter began, he took it over the goal in three plays. Powering through their opponents line and using plays off the T-formation, the Hodags scored the very next time they got the ball. In the fourth quarter, House Yurich broke up an Antigo drive by intercepting an over-the-line pass, starting the final Hodag touchdown drive. With a complete line-up of Hodag reserves in the game, Antigo scored its consolation touchdown with a Gnal score of zo-6. Antigo game spoils As an anti-climax to the Hodags' most success- ful season since 1938, Fischer, the Hodags' star run- ner and passer, was chosen for the All-Wisconsin Valley backfield. Underclassman Kennedy, who played a bang-up game at guard, became the first Freshman in the history of the Valley to be chosen for the All-Conference team. Becker, whose play at tackle was consistent all season, was one of three in the Wisconsin Valley to be chosen for the All- State team. The end of another season Page 4' Row 3: j.

A search of the record books failed to reveal when a I-Iodag five has last lost to Nekoosa. The second conference game with Wisconsin Rapids was another discouragement for the Hodags, for they wound up on the short end of a 45-1 7 score. The Red Raiders combined a fast break with accurate shooting to bring on the third defeat of the home club. Page 42 ...Jawa mea lo beak the 04104269 ln two of the best played games of the season, the Rhine- G ' I C95 lander hve absorbed its fourth and fifth defeats by bowing to xg H c Po Wausau, 43-4o, and to the defending champion Stevens Point team, 34-25. ln the last game before Christmas, the Qhdemen travelled to Nlarshheld, where they found their first victim. Trailing until the last four minutes of the game, the l-lodags suddenly spurted into the lead to bring home a scant 23-22 win. The I-lodags started out the new year by whipping Merrill for the first win on the home court, 30-27. Qi' A53 The next three games saw the Hodags fade, after their two- game winning streak. They lost non-conference tilts to Wausau, 48-31, and to Marinette, 4o-31, and to Tomahawk, 30-25, in a conference game marked by much roughness and loose officiating. QQ A tall Antigo team came here for the next game, determined X fx to sink the I-lodags, which they did by a decisive 47-zo score. Only 'Ni .S , Kc 3 in the hrst quarter, did the Hodags, trailing by one point, give 5 -' their arch-rivals a battle. The next two games saw the team alternately hot and cold, winning a second conference tussle with Marsh- held, 24-13, and dropping a non-conference to Eagle River, 31-28, our hrst loss to them in II years. The Hodags split with Merrill by bowing to the Bluejays, 32-28, at Merrill. Both teams played equal ball but the Rhinelanderites couldnt score when they needed to most of all. ln the last home game of the season the Hodags polished off Tomahawk, Z3-17. Early in the game Toma- hawk led, 9-1, but Rhinelander rallied in the second half to win. Following this victory, the Hodags absorbed a 38-23 beating at Antigo. The game was close until the last quarter when Antigo drew away to win easily. lt is interesting to note at this time that Rhinelander holds an edge of 31 wins to 26 wins for Antigo in their rivalry, which dates back to IQI 7. The Hodags, completing their io game pre-tournament schedule, found themselves in a tie for sixth place in the conference and established an over all record of 4 wins and I2 losses. Three of their long-standing scoring records were broken by Stevens Point, NVisconsin Rapids, and Wausau. Until this year Rhinelander held every known scoring record in the Wisconsin Valley Conference. ln the regional tournament held in Antigo, the Hodags won the right to enter the finals by defeating Med- ford, 4o-26, and taking Merrill 31-27. Rhinelander met Antigo in the finals, as in many previous tournaments, but lost 41-26, in a hard-fought game, thus relinquishing all rights to the championship.

Coach Ohde was assisted by Roy Rick, a miler from Marquette, Michigan, With the help of Roy, several of the boys specializing in distance runs held daily workouts during Easter vacation. With returning veterans such as, Bruckner, Moritz, Becker, and Briggs, we made a good showing at the var- ious track meets in which we participated. Becker showed up well as a discus thrower, and the relay team, with Moritz, Bruckner, Briggs, and Fischer, proved speedy competition for their opponents. Newcomers in the low hurdles were Bruso, Dekker, and Seymour.

This is done dur- ing regular meetings by members who give demonstrations and perform experiments in the fields of physics and chemistry. Experiments range from determining the solubility of ammonia to etching on glass. All this put together goes to make the Science Club an interesting fun-packed organization. Une of our most enjoyable meetings was conducted by Jim Anker, who 'demonstrated tricks of magic and sleight of hand for us. Row gi F Dekl4cr..K Carnich, N1 Spaffortl. C. Ccrhig, X4, Lammerl, B.

A driver's course was a new feature in Biology this year, so the last paper was devoted to articles on Safety, and what to do in case of accidents.

Miss Mantor had charge of the debate work which was taken care of under a separate unit. Under the direction of Miss Merkel' and Miss Fenelon the forensic members made their selections in their chosen Helds and prepared them for public delivery. On the zoth of February, the local serious and humorous declamation contests were held. Mary Kosbab won in the serious group and Charlotte Theis in the humorous. A week later, on March 6, the oratory and extemporaneous reading and speaking contests were held. Walter Massey drew an A rating in oratory, Pat Maloney and Ada Lee Winat, A ratings in extemporaneous reading, and Eu- gene Stanisauskis, an A rating in extemporaneous speaking. These winners represented Rhinelander at the league tournament.held at Wausau on Friday, March 15, where Ada Lee Winat and Charlotte Theis won the right to go on to the district contest held at Stevens Point on March zz. At this contest both girls again received A ratings and therefore were eligible to compete at the State contest held at Madison in April. The final activity of the Club was the Forensic Banquet which was given in May and enjoyed by all who attended.

Cn February 2, the debate squad and various members of the Forensic Club attended the State Sectional Speech Clinic at New Lon- don. , Two practice debate tourna- ments were held in Eau Claire, and one at Merrill. At the first tourna- ment at Eau Claire, Rhinelander entered eight teams and won io out of 27 debates. The same eight teams raised the score to 16 out of Z4 debates at the second tournament at Merrill. On January 5, two negative and two affirmative teams attended the third tournament at the Eau Claire State Teachers' College, where they won third place honors. Because of a tie between Chippewa Falls, Portage, and Rhinelander, the three schools were ranked according to individual points. After a series of round robin debates, the season ended at the State District Debate Tourna- ment, held at the Stevens Point State Teachers' College, on February 2, By winning only four debates instead of the necessary 5 out of 6, our debate squad lost its chance to attend the State Sectional Tourna- ment. During the year, the debate teams held round table discussions before various civil and social groups, including the Rotary, the Lions, and the I-lomemakers Clubs, the American Legion Auxiliary and the League of Catholic Women, as well as the Junior and Senior High Schools.

On No- vember zo, a written constitution was accepted and established. The Council is made up of one representa- tive elected from each Fifth hour class and three from the assembly room, thus giving almost equal repre- sentation of well-qualihed Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors, who must maintain a C average or better. President Jim Berquist, Vice-President Jim Palm, and Secretary lvlona Reed were elected by popular vote of the entire student body. At present lX4r. Weinlick is acting advisor, but provision has been made whereby an advisor will be elected by the Student Council from three nominees selected by the principal from the faculty. The purpose of the Student Council is to promote school spirit, mutual understanding between students and faculty, good discipline and good sportsmanship. The Council will also advise students on problems con- cerning their immediate welfare and attempt to maintain a high scholastic standard for the school. This years projects were the school paper and an honor roll for World War ll participants. President Berquist and his harem l u Row 4: J DuBois. J, Bruckner. D. Schuelke, W Andrus, D. Helgeson, J.

Schuppler, A. Duggan Each year the Dramatic Club, under the competent direction of Miss Young, plays a great part in bringing the attention of the community to school activities. The club is composed of Juniors and Seniors who, during the course of the year, present various types of dramatic entertainment for the students and the public. Special programs for pep meetings and holidays are given. The high- light of the 1945-'46 Dramatic Club activities was the presentation, on March zo, of the three one- act plays. The First, Dress Rehearsal, with an all boy cast, was a farce comedy, the second, A Friend at Court, was a domestic comedy which included a mixed cast, and the third, i'Three Taps on a Wall, was a mystery comedy presented by an all girl cast. Although not Dramatic Club projects, the Junior and Senior Class Plays include many club members and are directed by Miss Young. The largest audience ever to attend these group func- tions, was experienced this year at the presentation of the Junior Class Play, A Case of Spring- time. The crowd numbered 5oo. The public also received the final play of the Seniors, Pride and Prejudice, with a splendid turnout. For the ambitious Dramatic Club members, lQ46 was really a year of great achievement. rx: 3.3 to .

New songs such as F in- landia, The Skaters' Waltz, and several negro spirituals were then attempted. The annual Christmas program was presented December zoth. After the holidays they practiced music for the spring concert, ending the year singing for the Baccalaureate and Commencement Exercises. Occasionally throughout the year, Miss Brandt demonstrated her hidden talents by playing such numbers as Clair de Lune, Minute Waltz, and Redwoods at Bohemian Grove by Alec Templeton. The Girls' Glee Club was made up of thirty-eight girls, the majority of which were from the Sophomore Class. Our repertoire consisted of such selections as When Day is Done, Handels Prayer from Hansel and Gretel, and Bach's Blessing, Glory, and Wisdom. We also sang some popular songs: It Might as Well be Spring, Symphony, Till the End of Time. We joined the mixed chorus in presenting the Christmas and spring concerts. Row 4: H. Ploeger, C.

Besides playing for all home games, both football and basketball, the band leads the Homecoming Parade, marches in the Memorial Day Parade, and plays for the Homecoming Pep Meeting, as well as for various civic interests. The band also plays for the Christmas program and furnishes soloists or ensembles for P.T.A,'s and other organizations. The two most important events in which the band participates are the Mid-Winter and Spring concerts, Besides being the largest band we have had in the last several years, new instruments have been added to give better balance and tone quality. Band officers were elected in the fall. They were: Charlotte Theis, President, Donna Shipman, Vice- Presidentg Rodd Blaisdell, Secretary, and Mona Reed, Treasurer. Row 4: A. Larson, M Schalloclc, lf.
