EX L I B R 1 S 19 3 8 KING ' S CROWN Published by the . . . STUDENTS of RUFUS KING HIGH SCHOOL MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN FOREWORD How beautiful is youth! How bright it gleams with its illusions, aspirations, dreams! Upon youth ' s shoulders the burden of destiny is flung and is accepted with that blindness to obstacles that is youth ' s heri- tage. Rufus King High School is the em- bodiment of that progressive spirit of youth. Hopeful, eager, and impulsive, the students have sought to make their school a laboratory for living. They have ac- cepted as their standard in this endeavor an ideal which benefits not only them- selves, but also the school, the community, and the nation — the ideal of service. IIIEUII r isiilii ' ' ' ' )iiiiiii ' 11 ill w, ill II II LU I- u Q LU To RALPH G. CHAMBERLIN Because he has been generous, straight-thinking, and has had faith in others, because he has influenced and strengthened the ideals of all those associated with him, and because he has given them his philosophy of service without anticipation of reward, the students of Rufus King High School dedicate their first annual to their friend and principal, Mr. Ralph G. Chamberlin. MILTON C. POTTER Milton C. Potter stands for scholarship, for character, for happi- ness in the lives of children. These qualities he sees in this school. The spirit of happy play, of purposeful endeavor, of courtesy to fellows, of tolerance and mutual understanding, of unimpeachable standards of personal and professional con- duct, is our superintendent ' s desired atmosphere for this, and every school in the city of Milwaukee. a i I n ' i I I MB I Mai««te J These doors step to the temples of wisdom .

In recognition of this, on February 1, 1938, a Class Day Exercise inaugurated a program which it is hoped will become a tradition of the school. At an appropriate ceremony, all members of a graduating class who have rendered outstanding service to their school, shall have the honor of signing the Rufus King Scroll of Honor for Meritorious Service. For one year each scroll will hang upon the walls of King ' s foyer, after which it will become a page of the Book of Honor which will be kept and cherished by the school forever.

[64] COUNCILS and ORGANIZATIONS --..V-v-- ; ' Every homeroom elects one representative for each of the different councils. Therefore each pupil in the fifty- one different homerooms is represented in all the coun- cils. The councils meet with one or more sponsors every week, every other week, or on call, according to the im- portance of the school problem and the need for immedi- ate attention or action. Any problem presented in a homeroom may be given to the representative of that council to which it is most pertinent. That representative will present the problem at the following meeting of that particular council where it will be discussed and then taken back to all the homerooms by the fifty-one coun- cil members. Homeroom suggestions are brought back to the council for consideration at its next meeting. The recommendations of the council are taken to the school council which makes the final decisions and then pre- sents its findings to the principal of the school. Since each school problem follows through a similar procedure, every pupil in the school has an opportunity to par- ticipate in helping the formulation of the policies of his or her school, and thus learn to live as a member of a democracy during his high school years. KING ' S COUNCILS HONORABLE MENTION Besides the councils, a number of service groups deserve special mention. The GIRLS ' SOCIAL SERVICE, under the direction of Miss La Bine and Mrs. Neick, has made outstanding contributions. The BOYS ' SOCIAL SERVICE under Mr. Brauer ' s guidance has afforded an opportunity for students to become better acquainted. The HEALTH SERVICE, of which Miss Ludwig is sponsor, has trained efficient cadets to take charge of the health suite. Leon- ard Groskopf, a second semester senior, has directed the STAMP SERVICE which attracts students with an inter- est in philately. The BOOKKEEPING SERVICE, sponsored by Mr. Murphy, has had a twofold purpose: taking care of the bookkeeping and accounting for activity expendi- tures; and giving practical experience to commercial students through this work. Through CAMERA SERVICE, Mr. Johnson has taught the fundamentals of photography to those interested. In time we hope that they will give us a camera record of all our school activities. The DRAMATIC SERVICE has been divided into three groups: the 12fh grade directed by Mrs. Wirthwein, 11th grade directed by Miss Burke, and the Make-up group directed by Miss Pfeffer. The ninth and tenth grades have two dramatic groups directed by Miss Currie and Mrs. Roe- mer. Both groups study all phases of dramatic work. Thus through actual experience students have learned the art of acting, directing, and make-up. The contribu- tions of the VISUAL AID SERVICE under Mr. Kuckuk ' s direction have been valuable. The club produced the films Spinning Spokes and King ' s Diary. Members have taken charge of the projectors for special presen- tations of slides and films. All King ' s Service clubs are real examples of practical livings. [66] 7op flow: R. Clarkson, J. Schleif. L. Schlanart, M. Boutin, L. Kneiser. M. Buss, J. Poker, L. Borenitsch, A. Neuweiler, G.

SCHOOL COUNCIL The school council is a policy forming body. It con- siders the problems concerning the entire student body after these problems have been raised through and discussed by the other councils. Therefore the business of the school council is extremely varied. During the past year many school problems have been brought be- fore the school council. Some of the problems considered were: the a doption of a name for the all school yearly publication; plan of graduation; all school dance; all school banquet; pupil participation in the homeroom discussions; mixers for the different grade divisions; arranging a schedule of dates for the different programs and entertainments; dancing classes during the activity period; class day programs; parents ' nights; passing in the halls between classes; plan of going directly from the classes to the library without first going to the study hall; the number of social affairs, entertainments, or pro- grams that may be permitted during any one semester. Since this is a new school — new in building, new in faculty, and new in pupils — there are no traditions to follow, and the school council has had many school problems to consider both in getting the needed things done as well as attempting to formulate policies to be followed.

Through participation in sports boys and girls find enjoyment and relaxation, develop physical strength, and learn good sportsmanship. In order that King ' s athletic department might serve the many and not the few, the Athletic Coun- cil was organized. Once a separate girls ' group was formed, the original council became the Boys ' Athletic Council. Mr. Wolf is its able sponsor. To provide recreation for the boys who were not en- gaged in sports such as baseball, basketball, football, and soccer, the council planned courses in horseback riding, tennis, rifle shooting, hockey, archery, and golf. Many of these have been successfully developed. The members of the Boys ' Athletic Council also acted as advance agents for the varsity sports. In the announce- ments to their homerooms, they outlined the activities which would take place in the gymnasium and in the stadium. As part of this work to stimulate enthusiasm, a program of questions and answers was devised. Students who were not particularly well informed on some sport were given the opportunity to interrogate their athletic council representatives and have him explain the tech- nical points. In this way, the interest and the knowl- edge of the students about the .real meaning of athletics were enlarged and wrong impressions were corrected. Participation in intramurals sports has been very much increased through this plan. BOYS ' ATHLETIC COUNCIL [68] .. ... r.enner, D. Wheaton, M. Koop, M. Eaton, L ..::iun. A. Rosnow, L. Severson, L.

King ' s first Athletic Council was a group composed of both boys and girls, but since the problems of the two groups were so different, a separate girls ' council was formed in February, 1938 under the supervision of Miss Ludwig. Girls ' intramurals became its first consideration. As a result basketball, badminton, shuffleboard, baseball, tennis, and golf have been enjoyed by a record number of girls. Volleyball, hockey, and swimming may be offered as additional activities in the fall. The council has proceeded slowly toward a solution to the question of emblem awards for girls. The methods of other schools ore being investigated, together with the difficulties they encounter. A council committee has arranged a tentative plan for a point system for awards, and is at present working with a com.mittee from the Boys ' Athletic Council for the purpose of arriving at uniformity. The council has encouraged individual responsibility by appointing girls through homeroom divisions to take charge of tennis and basketball tournaments. To the council representatives goes the credit for the enthusiasm and fine response of King girls to the intramural program. If interest continues at its present high degree, Rufus King will soon occupy an enviable place m mtramurals for girls. [69] Top Row: V. KUnosiecke, A. Dingman, J. Fischer, R. Koplin, H. Seknicka, A.

How disastrous it would be if a student planning to be an engineer had not prepared himself sufficiently in the field of mathematics! The purpose of the Advisement Council is to prevent this sort of error on the part of King students. The selection of subjects is one of the most important prob- lems in school life, so a great deal of council time has been spent in aiding students to find the answers to the many questions that naturally arise in the program mak- ing of two thousand boys and girls. The Advisement Council helps the homeroom students to realize that making out a sem.ester program of subjects is something more than taking home a blank for dad to sign. Gradually the students are gaining a better under- standing of the importance of selecting programs to suit their individual needs, either to fit them for life work, or to prepare them properly for college and university. Life Advisement is also a function of the Advisement Council. At the beginning of each semester a question- naire is filled out by the seniors to discover their choices of colleges, vocations, and life interests. This year speakers have been selected to address senior groups in accord- ance with the information obtained from the questionaires. The council has been sponsored by a group of experienced counselors: Miss Fleer, Miss Jaspersen, Mr. Hanson, and Mr. Will. Case problems requiring special adjustment are re- ferred to a group of capable members of the council. They meet whenever there is need and render valuable services to the school through their recommendations. ADVISEMENT COUNCIL [70] Tor : : .Ike. A. Strasser. E. Reese. R. Wank, L. Blum. E.

I ' ll pay the rent, shouted the hero, and the audience sighed with relief. Such programs as the melodrama with little Audrey, the Jessie Ray Taylor impersonations, and the Trysting Place were the direct result of council planning. Origi- nally the council was divided into a junior section direct- ed by Mrs. Roemer and a senior group directed by Mrs. Dettman, but since February, 1938, it has functioned as a single body. The ever present problem before this council is the type of program most acceptable to the student body, for variety and excellence must be assured. Other related problems include the use of the loud speaker, dismissal of students from the auditorium in rapid and orderly manner, and excellence of conduct during programs. Following the process of experimentation in an effort to find the most satisfactory schedule, the council recom- mended that the auditorium meetings be changed from one every week for both junior and senior groups, to one every alternate week for each group. Also, pro- grams were held the eighth hour instead of the first. The new arrangement may be discontinued at the end of the current semester if it proves less satisfactory than the original plan. At present the student body, through its Auditorium Coun- cil, is selecting professional programs for next year. [71] Top Row; V. Wolf. E. Koss, W. Anders, D. Martin, M. Smith, R. Peuser, M.

The Cadet Council is a versatile and active group. It is headquarters for all of the many services carried on by the cadet service and homeroom groups. Through this council cadets are chosen for duty in the corridors, the office, and various posts throughout the building and grounds. Also, it sets the standards for awarding serv- ice banners to homerooms which have volunteered to undertake special duties to insure the good order and attractiveness of the school. No student group has a finer opportunity than the Cadet Council members to discover the needs and problems of the school. Their fingers are on its pulse. So into the Cadet Council every Tuesday morning comes a report of conditions based upon the knowledge and observation of the cadets. After discussion, each representative re- ports to his homeroom. The problems which arise in the care of the school are presented to the students, and they are urged to contribute their opinions and suggest their solutions. The recent contest which was held by the Cadet Council proved the value of this plan. Many new and better suggestions were offered for improving the work of the cadets. The Cadet Council is ably sponsored by Mr. Foti. As in any other efficient body, order, cleanliness, democracy, good citizenship, and faithfulness to duty are emphasized. Rufus King is proud of the work of this council. CADET COUNCIL [72] ' n r  f m vW tf H fM Wi ' ' llj 1 Kw bV Kv% l?y Pl Bit- % mUM i,hJ S[ ig j jHij Igg i g Top flow: F. Reimer, C. Selameyer. L.

CAFETERIA COUNCIL No school is complete without a cafeteria. Neither is a cafeteria complete without a group of students to help solve its most difficult problems. The Cafeteria Council has concentrated its efforts on the regulation of dietetic and social problems involved in successful cafeteria m.anagement. Miss Tice and Mr. Jankowski act as faculty advisors. Adequate lunches at a minimum cost have been made available through the efforts of the council. Also, with the cooperation of the entire student body there has been an attempt to solve the problems of attitude and good conduct in the cafeteria. Closely related to this was the question of offering some sort of recreational opportunity during the lunch hour. The Cafeteria Council felt that providing varied means for entertainment within the lunchroom would minimize general restlessness and loit- ering in the halls. For this reason there has been put at the disposal of the students checker boards, chess boards, ping pong tables, and various other games which can be used and returned at the close of the lunch period. This group has also been able to acquire a piano and reserve a small space for dancing. Since the students participate whole heartedly in the recreational oppor- tunities provided, the work of the Cafeteria Council has amply proved its worth. Although the council is still in its infancy, its record of accomplishments points to a future of unlimited possi- bilities for service at Rufus King High School. 1731 Top Row: K. Weidt, H.

Miss Marcher, our librarian has a source of ever ready aid in the Library Council. Problems pertaining to the use of the library arrangement of books on the shelves, correct filling out of library permits, and the handling of fines on overdue books are discussed by the four mem- bers of the steering committee of the council before being brought before the whole council for general discussion. Through the council not only are problems solved, but also the student body is taught about the new books, magazines, and newspapers that are brought into the Rufus King library. From the reports the librarian be- comes acquainted with the library needs of the student body. Helpful suggestions of students concerning the library are brought to the council. The work of the Library Council is supplemented by the service of Library Cadets who give time before and after school as well as during the day to assist in the many duties necessary to the success of a library. Annual Book Week programs are usually under the supervision of Miss Marcher, and with the aid of council members Rufus King students are given a brief introduc- tion to the latest and most popular books, whether they be fiction, history, biography, or science. To make the library a helpful and pleasant place to work is the aim of the library service groups. LIBRARY COUNCIL [74] Top Row: B. Gray, P. Rows, B. Lund, P. Berman, B. Blum, L. Cox, G. Fischer, G.

Imagine organizing for the first time such an important feature of school life! This was the first problem that confronted the King ' s Page Council. Every student had different ideas concerning the number of issues, price, type of articles, number of pictures, and newspaper features. Overshadowing all other problems was the big question, Should the King ' s Page be pub- lished by a staff? After much homeroom discussion it v as decided to have the paper run by voluntary workers handling unassigned contributions. Up to February, 1938, the paper was put out by these student volunteers. This semester a new system of management was inau- gurated. This is the News Service Club. Forty-five per- sons are divided into three large groups— News, Features and Editorials, and Sports. Each of these is broken up into three smaller divisions — Headlines, Copy-reading, and Make-up. Everyone in the Service Club is given an opportunity to work in all the groups and divisions by a system of rotation. The material published is still selected from the voluntary contributions of the student body. Both the King ' s Page Council and the News Service Club are under the direction of Miss Gaunt, Mr. Hackett, and Mr. Hunter. Mr. Murphy has charge of finances. [75] Top rtow. B. Eitier, J.

There should hove been a bulletin. That is the busy routine of King ' s super press agents, the Publicity Council members, under the leadership of Mr. Murphy and Mr. Zahorik. Meetings are held weekly at which plans are made to give school events publicity and to make the student body conscious of the many and varied activities of the school. The council accomplishes its purpose through regular announcements, posters placed in con- spicuous places, bulletins issued for important events, and ingenious devices to mark the friendly progress of home- rooms in competitive contests. The field of the Publicity Council is varied. It gives pub- licity to everything from basketball to banking. Today, its concern may be on all-school dance; and tomorrow, the senior play, the yearbook, or a Christmas tree for cur foyer. It stirs up pep for athletic events, informs the school of band activities, whets King ' s appetite for A Cappella concerts, beautiful ballet girls , dark villains, and handsome heroes. This council, one of the latest to be organized, has accom plished much in the past year to reflect concretely the teamwork and cooperation which keep the student body King conscious, for it takes the decisions of the School Council and lends the necessary publicity to translate them into successful student action.

For almost four years the Safety Council was known as the Bicycle Council. During this period all its members were devotees of the Spinning Spokes, and its chief concern was the promotion of safety among King ' s four hundred bike riders. The name was changed this semes- ter to make it a more fitting agent to promote the entire safety program of the City of Milwaukee. Its scope was thus enlarged to include all phases of safety in and around King High. Posters and safety-grams prepared by a committee called constant attention to the work of the council. All precautions have been taken to teach the ways of safety at home and at school so that King may continue to hold its proud record as one of the leaders of our city high schools in the promotion of safety. During the four years that the Safety Council has been in existence, our students have grown more and more careful in bike riding. The council recently handled all the clerical work involved in the application and dis- tribution of bicycle licenses. Constant emphasis has been placed upon the rules of the road to be followed by bike enthusiasts. Mr. Hanks, who sponsors the Safety Council, sees its work as a continuous process of education with ever increasing results in safety for all. [77] Top Row: A. Boeing, D. Haasch, B. Dietrich, R.

Christmas trees and tall candles for the mid-season dance . . . dazzling decorations . . . mixers . . . anything required for successful social affairs becomes the problem of the Social Council. This council is under the guidance of Mr. Stout and meets whenever there is work to be undertaken. When the question of a social affair arises, a special sub-committee of sixteen students and eight teachers is appointed. It is made up of one social council member from each grade division, his homeroom teacher and their School Council representative. Thus all age levels and groups have an equal voice in planning an all-school party. This committee changes from time to time, varying so that all may have the opportunity to serve the school. The members decide such questions as whether a dance is to be formal or informal, what the admission charge is to be, whether there is to be a floor show and, if so, what it shall be. The committee is divided into smaller groups who have charge of decoration, refreshments, entertainment, and checking. When the King student finds the gym beautifully dec- orated, dances under soft lights to the strains of sweet swing, applauds enthusiastically for the floor show, delights in the grand refreshments, and finally leaves reluctantly — he should silently thank the members of the Social Council for their contribution to his good time.

Since most of them have routes to deliver and corners to cover after school, it is impossible for them to take part in school activities which meet after school hours. There- fore, means have been devised to give them equal op- portunity with the rest of the students at King. Arrange- S T REET ments have been made so that street traders may par- ticipate in activities during the lunch periods and the A rM f eighth hour. Through the Street Traders ' Council, co- I KADES operation in city-wide events has been arranged. Dur- ing the school year, King traders have particioated in _. _ . I  . | - i 1 the newspaper folding contest and the basketball tourna- C OUInCIL ment which brought King ' s team the all-city champion- ship. Not all of the activities of the council have been recrea- tional. The law which governs street trades work is quite complex, and it requires the constant attention of the council to see that the boys are observing it. Since school work comes before street trades work, a constant check must be made to ascertain whether any of the street traders are lagging or are behind in their studies. In this way, a high standard of scholarship is main- tained. All of these things are necessary in order that the street traders at Rufus King may fit into the regular school life and may be a credit to their school. [791 Top flow: C. Loos, I. Furkert, W.

Looking back in retrospect over the past four years, we find a group of less than fifty band and orchestra members who made up a nucleus around which the present organ- izations were developed. Since that time this number has increased to a membership of two hundred students. Among the varied aims of these groups, one has been paramount: to inculcate a sense of musical appreciation in .both performers and audience. To achieve this, many public appearances were made, among which were the Spring and Fall Concerts, the operetta, Top flow; L. Moerke, R. Forsti, R. Widder, D. Raini(.-r, A. Schimmelpfennig, C.

These groups have enjoyed participating in many school ac- tivities this year. In November the A Cappella Choir, assisted by a ballet and the senior orchestra, gave three performances of the Operetta Once in a Blue Moon. Christmas carols were sung in the auditorium and through the halls during the holiday season. The Eastern Wisconsin Music Tournament held in April and May was an inspiration to our vocal as well as instrumental groups. Eleven students entered the solo events, while the Girl ' s Glee Club and the A Cappella Choir took part in the ensembles. The open house program consisted of a half hour musical program in both the gym and auditorium. The musical activities at the close of the school year will be the Spring Concert on June 3, and the choral and band numbers on Commencement night, June 23. [821 Top Row: E. Lindenbach, B. Gehlen, M.

Members of this organization, under the direction of Miss Cox, have been responsible for the designing and painting of scenery that has been used on the stage for such productions as Once in a Blue Moon and The Fumblefoot Follies. The traes that were built by the Stage Service Club for The Fumblefoot Follies were made of wire, wood, news- paper, glue, and burlap bags splattered with red, green, blue, and light and dark brown paint. No matter what has been needed, the club has succeeded in meeting requirements with ingenuity and skill. Students have worked diligently in close cooperation with the Publicity Council over the posters which have advertised time, place, and occasion when school func- tions and activities were planned. Bulletin boards have been kept up-to-date. Dances and sports have been given publicity. Members of the Art Service Club have designed and executed the cover and division pages of this yearbook. Also they sketched the cartoons which are found illustrat- ing the school calendar in the Feature Section. In addition to these services of designing and painting scenery, of making posters, and of working on the year- book, boys and girls have varnished and numbered identification paddles, fulfilled continual service requests made by teachers, and have designed and lettered the Rufus King Honor roll for meritorious school service.

CADET SERVICE Barked orders, such as Keep in line, Don ' t run up tiie stairs, Don ' t push, and other unpleasant and unnecessary commands have been eliminated by Rufus King ' s Cadet Service. Instead of being petty bosses, the cadets have accepted the responsibility of being the guardians of the school. Eight times each day they inspect lockers, halls, stairs, and the auditorium and stage. Any injury to the building is reported to the key room. The senior boys who are in charge there help make keys and aid in fixing lock- [84] Top flow; D. Goehlen, R. Zentgraf, E. Dolge, E. Roesch, F. Rosenstein, M. Hanna, W. Huebner, R. Voelz, D.

Other important groups of cadets are found in the office, library, health suite, and gymnasium. Additional duties of the cadets are to check the s ervices of the homerooms and award service banners. The merit banners are given for such voluntary services as keeping the campus and recreation fields in good condition, oiling the seats in the auditorium, sending flowers or cards to the sick, and performing many other special duties assumed by the homerooms. Mr. Foti is the Cadet Service sponsor. The student administrative body consists of a boy- captain, a girl-captain, a secretary, a sergeant-at-arms, and a treasurer. [85] Top flow; Mr. McElroy, E.

Trass for the Fumblefoot Follies — a college campus — a moonlit night? The Stage Service Club, under the supervision of Mr. Charette and Mr. McElroy, provides the solution for the scenery diffculties of stage produc- ti ons, and what is a play w ithout scenery? The club consists of eleven members who meet reg- ularly twice a week and oftener when necessary. They are the constant guardians of our auditorium, making scenery, setting it, creating lighting effects, and taking care of the stage. Their work does not end with even- ing programs — in fact, it hardly begins then. The boys must see that the stage is kept in good order, and one member of the club is always present during any re- hearsal. This group also offers able assistance durin afternoon auditorium programs. At present the boys are working on a reproduction of King ' s stage and all properties in miniature to make it easy for directors to get an accurate idea of the effect of a particular setting without building it full scale and then perhaps finding it a disappointment. The lovely lighting in Once in a Blue Moon, those sturdy trees in Fumblefoot Follies, the eerie effects in Dust of the Road — these things did not happen by ac- cident but were created by the quiet, capable work of the unsung heroes of the Stage Service Club.

FOOTBALL SUMMARY Whitefish Bay King Marquet e High King King King King 13 King 20 Menominee Falls 13 King 14 Sheboygan . 27 Messmer 7 Port Washington 27 Country Day 7 6 14 7 7 The Rufus King gridders opened their 1937 campaign with Whitefish Bay. After trailing 6 to 0, King pounded 60 yards for a touchdown in the first half, tieing the score. Whitefish Bay came back in the second half with the winning touchdown. Menominee Falls provided little opposition for the King football machine. The first team scored three quick touchdowns, and substitutes finished the game. Although King scored first when Marquette invaded the stadium, our men were unable to hold the lead. A pass from Lass to Maertzweiler early in the game provided King ' s only touchdown. King ' s first night game, held at Sheboygan, was a real thriller. King scored first after a series of plunges; Sheboygan came back with a score on a long pass. A few plays later Sheboygan scored again on a brilliant long run, ending the half. In the last half, the fighting Kingmen pushed across a touchdown from the three yard line. King ' s only touchdown in the game with Port Washington came in the first eight minutes of play. Port ended the scoring for the game in the third period. Messmer High ' s team was the next to struggle against the fighting warriors of King. The Kingmen, anxious to erase the memory of the Port game, started with a bang. They scored two touchdowns in the first quarter, and from then on the game was a rout. Country Day came to the King stadium to close the season. The game was close until the second half when King started clicking. Each man of the backfield took turns in scoring. Country Day ' s touchdown came late in the third quarter on a plunge. The squad was well drilled in football fundamentals by Head Coach Wolf, Line Coach Hanks, Backfield Coach Jankowski, End Coach Kaczmarek, and Freshman Coach Foti.

The gold-clad players, led by Arthur Uhl- man ' s long drives and Herbert Koehler ' s short kicks, flash by in surging drives to score again for King! The above description is typical of the spirited action and color of Rufus King ' s Soccer Team. During the team ' s three years in city soccer competition, they have gradually built up an enviable record of victories which has enabled them to capture the City Soc- cer Championship in 1936 and to place second in 1935 and in 1937. The Rufus King Soccer Team is under the able direction of Mr. Kaczmarek. Below are the scores of the three seasons in which King was a member of the soccer league. 1935 1936 1937 King Pulaski 1 King 2 Pulaski King Pulaski 2 King Custer King 2 Custer King 3 Custer 1 King 3 Juneau 1 King 1 Juneau 1 King 4 Juneau King 2 Pulaski King Pulaski 2 King Custer 1 King 3 Custer King 2 Juneau 1 King 1 Juneau BOXING Boxing at King has been treated largely as an intramural sport. Because it has been re- cently introduced many students have not known much about it. However, next year may see scheduled exhibitions in boxing, and the publicity thus gained should serve to make it one of the major sports at King. Some of the members of the boxing team whom Coach Foti loses through graduation are: Davis, who has fought in two Golden Glove tournaments, Gutwald, Koepp, Jaracek, Hanna, and Kuntzsch. Their loss will be noticed in the ranks of boxers at King. We sincerely hope that new recruits to the sport will do as well as these veterans in making the art of self de- fense a real worthwhile sport.

Although the team has lost several veterans, it has shown greater team strength. Last year in the State Track Meet, Poehlman pla ced third in the 440, and Hanna fourth in the mile. In the City Meet, Mueller gained third place in the 100-yard dash and fourth in the 220. Poehlman captured second in the 440. This season Rufus King was successful in win- ning second place in a triangular meet with South Milwaukee and Bay View, and third place in the Shorewood relays. Koehler and Roach placed at the Waukesha relays. Several boys on the present team are seniors and will not be back for next year ' s compe- tition. Some of the season ' s point getters are Mueller, Russell, and Lass, dash men; Gut- wald, quarter mile; Hanna and Thorn, mile; Dobschuetz, pole vault; Swenson, hurdles and pole vault; Newnam, hurdles; Weliky, hurdles, high jump, weights, and broad jump.

FENCING AND WRESTLING The members of the Fencing Club pictured here have advanced sufficiently to partici- pate in competitive fencing. In 1937 James Mortier reached the finals in the Milwau- kee Public Schools Sports Carnival, and Garaldine Fischer won third place ranking in the Wisconsin Fencers ' League tournament for high school girls. In 1938, Ruth Blum captured the second place and Geraldine Fischer again took third place in the Wisconsin Fencers ' League meet. Margaret Eaton received a certificate of merit for observance of rules, sports- m.anship, dress, and good fencing form. The boys also claimed a number of prizes. In the seniors boys ' division of the Wisconsin Fencer ' s League tournament, James Mortier was crowned champion and was also av arded a certificate of merit. In the same contest Wal- ter Fruhman and Karl Wegener won third in the novice, and third in the senior division, respectively. Concentrate your attention on this picture of King ' s husky wrestlers. Under Mr. Will ' s coaching the team has turned in a very successful season, competing against such formid- able foes as Washington Park, Racine, and Washington High School, Milwaukee. Due to the great interest in the spoit it is quite evident that King students can expect a powerful team next season. [91] •««f ♦.«(;  •««t W l«f Top Row; R. Schultz, H. Welke, G. Swenson, D.

In twelve starts, the varsity squad won nine victories. Beginning the season, they defeated West Allis High School by a score of twenty-seven to sixteen, and thus set the pace for the six consecutive wins which were to follow. The chain was broken, however, by Pulaski ' s excellent team. Coaches Polomis and Jankowski ' s boys wound up the Pulaski game on the short end of a twenty-four to twenty-two score. The remaining games were split between King and their opponents. The squad ' s overage score of twenty-seven points against their opponents ' twenty-two proves that they are ready for stronger competition. King ' s baskeball team has therefore been en- tered in the City High School Conference. Congratulations are in order for the sportsmanship and for the new laurels which the 1937- 38 team has given Rufus King High School! TENNIS AND GOLF The King tennis squad under the direction of Mr. Hackett has shown a decided improve- ment over last year ' s team. Already emerging victorious over several major contenders, King should end the tennis season with no less than a .500 average. With marked interest and enthusiasm King ' s golf team, coached by Mr. Scharf, teed off to a good start by defeating its first three opponents. To date. King is tied for first place and will undoubtedly end the golf season with a fine record. [92} FEATURES SCHOOL CALENDAR SEPTEMBER Back to King Campus. Book store opens — rushing business.

Spinning Spokes, a silent 16mm film on bi- cycle safety, was produced by King students and faculty. Copies have been shown in schools throughout the nation, where they have excited a great deal of interest. The National Education Association, National Safety Coun- cil, National Conservation Bureau, and Ameri- can Automobile Association are among the organizations which have been most kind in their reception of the film. A number of city school systems have purchased copies for use throughout their buildings. One copy of Spinning Spokes was given to the school without cost, and another donated to the Milwaukee Public Museum by an auto- mobile dealer. [96] FUMBLEFOOT FOLLIES A tangle with gangsters, a mad mix-up of romances, a kidnapping, and the finding of a true-love for a poor little country maiden go to make up the merry melange of mirth, melody, mystery, and mad-cap adventures known as THE FUMBLEFOOT FOLLIES. That is how the programs read for the premiere of the athletic department ' s all-boy musi- cal comedy, written by Mr. Hackett, and directed by Miss Burke and Mr. Wolf. I do it for my school! cried the boys, manfully — and gave themselves into the hands of torturers. They were shaved — they were costumed in delightful draperies — they were smeared with cold cream and powder and rouge — they were transformed into blonds, and brunettes, and red-heads. They tripped onto the stage, trailing filmy veils, and were greeted with gales of laugh- ter. But the orchestra began — the twelve heroes went into their intricate routine — and the gales of laughter turned into salvos of applause. Thus the promise of the program was fulfilled, the appreciation of the audience repaid the cost and chorus for their long hours of rehearsal, and the patronage of the people made possible the purchase of new equipment for athletic teams of the school.
