They were all ready to start on their journey with Captain Wolfe at the helm. lt wasn't long before the first storm hit - initiation. The Waves were uniformed in unusual garb: nightgowns in the morning, pajamas in the afternoon, newly shampooed hair, but untouched by comb or bnrsh. Swabs had to wear dresses, car a papoose, and wear a vegetable corsage. The crew swabbed the deck and each other's feet with toothbrushes, and carried a huge pail dfwater. After this storm, the upper seamen treated us to a dance on the decks of R.H.S. The officers on board were as follows: President - Lester Clapp, Vice-President - Deanna Doerr, Secretary - Janice Norman, Treas- urer - Gordon Myers. Our first mutinous act was a battle with the upper seamen for homecoming float honors. The judges went overboard, but of their votes to place second with our float 'Pruning the Ramblers . We dropped several crewmen at different ports. Alice Asfahl at St. Ansgar, Marilyn Burtolph at Waterloo, Ramona Springs, Ardith French at Osage, joan Gandre, and Jocelyn Napolillo at Nashua, and Donald Hendrickson at Fredrieka. We passed an island noted for its hula-hula girls, and two swabies, William Dozark and Allan Leer, went overboard. them, they were paddling toward shore. we rescued enough Everding at Nora When we last saw on board two new Luck hit us and we went into dry-dock for three months. As we left dry-dock for our second season at sea, we had captains, scientist, Mr. Milton Herwig, and a man who not only taught history, but also made it in the school history, Mr. Dallas Reed. Three Waves - Ann Law, President, Lois Lenth, Secretary, Deanna Doerr, Treasurer, and a swab, jim Roethler, vice-President, were elected to help the captains control the disorderly crew. We received a cablegram that Nora Springs was about to attack Riceville at horrrcoming. So we sent out our destroyers. 'Ihe destroyer re- turned with this banner flying from the helm - 'Saw Nora Springs, Sank Same'. The officer in command reported that our ship had won. Later in the year we swabbed the deck and sponsored a dance, with.Cousin Merle and his Maple Leaf Cowboys furnishing the music. This year, twenty-two shipn-lates ranked as waiters and waiu-eases at the araual Seamen's juniorSenior Banquet. A stow-away from Lone Rock during our freshman year, joan McGovern,4left the ship for Algona. After repairing and refueling at dry-dock for three months, we lost jim Roethle., one of our shipmates, to Elma 1. C., and then began another voyage. We set out to sea as somewhat experienced sailors with a good crew and two excellent captains, Mr. Herwig and Mrs. McMeekin. B time, our crew consisted of thirty-eight sailors. We lost Luella Mclnroy, Gordon Myers, Daniel Carlson, and Paul Block. But we filled crew with new seamen Marcelle Hanson, jacqueline Dutton, and Virginia Saint. One of our fomier companions, joan McGovern, returned ship in time to help us construct our float. . . We bulled our way to first place with 'This is No Bull, 1t's in the Bag . We had new officers this year, too. The following carefully directed us on our voyage: President -- Bill Alley, Vice-President - Carol Secretary - Irma Hamilton, Treasurer - john Smith. y this up our I0 OU! Leist, turned As it is with every third year crew, we had to raise enough money to honor the seniors at a banquet and prom. In order to do this we into pirates and robbed the surrounding shuns by presenting two mutinous plays. The first was entitled 'Balcony Scene' and the other, helped prepare us for future voyages, was The Women Have Their Way . We also sold magannes to increase our booty. Everything was in a state of confusion as we headed for the port of New Orleans and the Mardi Gras, which was the theme of the prom. The deck was artistically decorated with white lattice fences covered with red twining roses. Swabs strummed on toy guitars and everyone enjoyed dancing under the blue crepe paper sky to the melodies played by Del Clayton and his orchestra. . 1 I Q At this time, we went into 'guarantine' because a greater majority of the crew contacted a seaman's disease called 'vacationrr.rs . It took three months for 'Bugoligist' Herwig to mix up a concoction to counteract this disease. After we had the disease under control, we started on our fourth and final voyage, Since women will probably be leading us the rest of our lives, we decided ro make four of them our officers- Presidflll - III!!! Hlmllwh Vice-President - Lois Lenth, Secretary - Carol Leist, Treasurer l Ann Law. By this time, Mr. Herwig had become a Rear Admiral, but was also maintaining his position as Commanding Officer. After being at sea for three years, Lynn Nation and Harold Frieberg decided to retire from all sea-faring voyages. This year we again won first place with our homecoming float 'We Don't Need a Lucky Strike to Beat St. Ansgar'. The sailors froze the docks at Minneapolis on April 16, 1955, and most of us sailed up to view thsflce Folliesfor Skip Day. As our last journey ne 'ed its end, each sailor had his picture taken and secured a ring. We also presented our last production, 'Our Town', with several crew members raking an active part. On May 26, we received our diplomas on a deck decorated with white and sky blue. We chose the American Beauty Rose as our flower and 'Our Hope - Success, Our Aim - To Win' as our motto. This was our final year and we graduated and soon will become captains of our own ships. lt has been a wonderful and successful voyage for our class of 1955- Thirty-four seamen graduated as first class officers of the world. We thank all of our commanders and instructors for giving us our knowledge on the sea of life, no matter how rough or how smooth. Ile, the class of '55, look up and thank you - for everything!

A look at the record will show that the girls had a very dismal season, but it must be taken into consideration that the girls lacked experience. Three other factors which lost several close games for us were the lack of height, our inability to make charity tosses, and lack of a high scoring forward. joan McGovern, who was moved from the guard court to the front court is our only senior. joan was our post forward and high scorer for the year She was followed closely by sophomore Rosella Grimm who played some fine basketball for us this year junior Margaret Minor our third high scorer rounded nut the starting front court ln the back court we had Hazel Wyatt a sophomore who seemed to improve with each game The post guard was handled after mid season by Lois Kruger who for her first year of basketball did a very fine job Kathy McGovern one of the finest guards in this section of the state was the other starting guard Kathy is also a sophomore Audrey Wolfe a sophomore was a very capable replacement and should give the starters a real battle for their position next year Shirley Kruger and Konnie Miles freshman and sophomore respectfully are also contenders for a starting position next year Front court replacements consisted entirely of freshmen Our forwards, jane Affeldt and Donna Pettltt showed lots of drive and handled the ball quite well Sharon Conger and Catherine Larsen will battle for the post job both have great potentiali ties, plus the height we have been looking for We are not making any predictions for next year but we have the experience now and a great desire as a team to win We are looking forward with great anticipation to the 1955 56 season Lime Springs Elma Floyd Manly Nora Springs Ridgeway Mclntire Rockford Manly Gxester Orchard Mclntire Protivin 38 Little Cedar 1'-i ii-T .1-3 ao --------------- ' ' ------------- 53 35 ------ --------- ------------------- 6 2 z9--- - ---.------ ---------------- - --42 21 --- ----------- ----------------- - -71 31 ----- --------- ' -------------- 5 2 zz --------.-- ' - 36 --- ----------- Orchard ------ -------- - -58 Q 22 --------------- ' ------ ---------- 3 9 26 --------------- ---------------- 4 9 36 --------------- --------------- - --51 39-H ----- ----- ------ - ---- - - -49 46 ----- --------- ----------------- 7 1 39 ------ -------- ' ' --------- ------- 4 1 33 --- ----------- ------------- ---36 ---------- ---- ' --------------48 BASEBALL FRONT ROW Lester Clapp Nlelbourne Prxnz Ronald Torney Rrchard Dutton john Worple Gerald Hauser R1chard Brunner Gary Hovey SECOND ROW kenneth Ferguson Paul Beran james Nclnroy Tom Anderton james Mueller Robert Moore Jim Sm1th Elmer Rmg Marvm Roesler THIRD ROW Gary Torney joe Chrenc1k Ray Russell Tom Lubbert Dale Blfd Tom jones Ronald M001-e Dag-wm Alden B111 Moss FCURTH ROW Fred Gr1mm Denn1s Russell Alfred Utesch Elsron Brown john Dempsey Charles Blevms Richard Templeton B111 Myers TRACK R1chard Utesch SECOND ROW R1chard Dutton james Nlclnroy Tom Anderton james Mueller Quenten W1lkes Paul Beran W1ll1am Alley Flmer Ring Robert Evenson THIRD ROW Gary Torney joe Chrenc1k Ray Russell Tom Lubbert Dale Bird lx11chaelSm1th Ronaldhloore Art McGovern Garry Alden Darw1n Alden Narvm Roesler FOURTH ROW Fred Grimm Dennis Russell Alfred Utesch Elston Brown, john Dempsey j1m Richmond Iwerl Asfahl B111 wloss David Sm1th ai . : I ' Y 1 .
