Rushford High School - Valley Legend Yearbook (Rushford, MN)

Text from Pages 1 - 128 of the 1945 volume:

The path of'life is long, but, we,.tho Seniors-of 1945, realize that at last v e have rounded its first bend, and now stand alone to look upon the valley of the future. We realize that we now must stand upon our own two feet. That no longer will we be governed by a faculty's eye, cr a parent's hand. We know now that we have been chosen keeper of ourselves, to keep ourselves clean, pure, and wholesome; a job given to us by our Creator. As we step into the future we carry with us the Key to the past, this Annual. And in tinea of sorrow, v e shall thumb through its pages, and recall the pleasant hours v e spent within the alls of R. K. S. and be lifted to the cloud of happiness. We shall use this key to unlock our chest of memories, to glance back at days gone by, cold be reunited with friends once so dear to our hearts. May this Annual serve as c bond to keep schoolday friendship alive, and revive lingering memories in days to come. liay it also serve as an inspiration to the underclassmen who have been our companions in school life as well as in social life. When this Annual can be used to bring back to life the spirit of days gone by, then v ill it be the success that v e have striven to make it. I shall remember then When youth is done. With the dim years grown gray; And I shall wonder what it is that ends, Ar.d why they seem sc very far army— Old dreams, old roses—-and old Friends. Thomas S.

S. would corse so soon. It was on September 5, 1933, that 34 wee six-year olds began the study of the three Hs under the watchful eye of Marguerite Green. Those who began their school careers at that time were: Hobcrt Arnold, Lotitir Blnnchfieid, De n Burnos, Douglas Burnes, David Carlbon, Joan Colbcn cn, Donald Engen, Allen Eggen, Norman Eskelson, Carrol Evenron, fiobert Dvenson, Iila Glcnr , Berdonna Gilbertson, Gor-den Hatleli, Willis Hall, I-aVcrne Hanson, Paul Hanson, Elmer Hill, Amy Hoiseth, Ilcne Haugen, Wallace Jcreczci1:, --laine Konetchy, Doris Laumb, James Lee, Audrey Nordgr rd, Dorothy Noyes, Helen Nation, Mary Oldendorf, Dale Heishus, -Gverret Eislove, Betty Schultz Milford Thompson, Jeanette Vigness, fcigna V’aadevig. The first ye-r proved rather exciting, and by the end of the ye°r -ost of us were ready for second grade. During the follovring years we had cur work and our fun; parties at Christmas, and on Valentine's Day------- class picnics---and • ther social gatherings. Bor four years we studied, and played; and then, upon taking roll in fifth gr -de we discovered, that along the way we'd lost nine students. Those still with us wereI ’••alter Arnold, Letitia Blenchfield, Jean Colbenson Allen E- n, Lila Glenna, Willis Hall, Paul Hansen, Gordon Hatleli, Venice Hatleli, Dorothy Henderson, Lyle Eoltegaprd, Maxine Jacobson, Alton Hlungtvedt, Giendon Laugen, D3ris L-umb, Audrey Nordgaard, M ry Oldendorf, Dale Eeishus, Bverret Hislove, Milford Thompson, Carrol Tofstrd, Hrc T.rgerud, Jeanette vigness, Elaine Konet-. chy, Diner Hill. ' On up through the grades we climbed----fifth-sixth- seventh. By this time we had become accustomed to the path .f school life, an' we followed it with the hopes of someday sitting in the row by the windows up in the high school assembly. Throughout the years we gained and lost in class population. And then a da.y we had long awaited finally came. Didn't we all have a sinking feeling as we ascended the long flights of stairs to the place of more advanced study? That first glori-us year wo strutted around with the title, Green Fresh ies. Our first real high school experience was the initiation party whore 37 of us met the grindstone. Those initiated were: Vilas Amundson, Clarice 3artleson, Alf Bjorge, Elisabeth Buolow, Karvoy Brunner, Lorayne Bur.ke, Myrtle Bunke, Vernon Carlson, Jean Colbonson, Dorothy Dahle, Allan Eggen.Lila Glenna, Edel Grindland, Wallace Hello-land, Viola Jorgens, VJilbert Kahoun, Alton Llungtvcdt, Elaine Konetchy, Shirley Lange, Glondor Laugen, Doris Laurcb, Loretta Lucdtke, Wallace Markegaard, Raymond McManiraon, Audrey Nerdgaard, Mary Oldtndorf, Viola 01-sta.d, Eugene Peterson, Donald Rakstad, Dale Reishus, Betty Rude, Ardis Rye, Joyce Severson, Clarice S rum, Milford Thompson, Mae Torgerud, Jeanette Vigness. At last the nine months of freshman training was over, and the following fall we began as Sophomores. Since wc were now upper-classmen wo considered it our privilege to look down on the Fresh. We now had only three years 'til we would reach the windows. The Sophomore year passed as quickly as the Freshmen one, and bef're we knew it, wo were sitting in the middle section of the Assembly. As juniors we were given the privilege of ordering class rings and when thxy finally arrived, there wa.s a. mad rush to H. 0. Hanson 8 to pick them up. Another privilege given us was that of putting on the Junior-Senior Prom on May20. We chose the deck of a ship for the basis of ur theme. The Juniors and Seniors came decked in new formals and suits, and boarded the ship via a gangplank, which led directly to the open snip deck where the lunch was served. Dancing wac in the spacious ship's ballroom,’ with the R.H.S. Melody Masters presiding. After sailing for three hours the U.S.S. Ship docked at Pert Rushford and unloaded its cargo. Finally came the last of the twelve years, and one ambition was fulfilled. Cur senior year proved to be the happiest of them ell, and the moct .ventful. First of all oamc the ordering of our announcements. Then on January 20, v e wont to Lanssboro and got shot by ilr. Bue. Yiro no more than turned around before Annual v ork started popping out at us, and hc Senior Class Flay came Into view. April 12, brought Senior Day at the T inona State Teachers College. At the beginning of the err wo had selected green and white as cur class colors, and the white reso as our clrss flov er. Because wc couldn't got white gowns acid caps to coincide with our colors, we chose a light grey ensemble with grc: n tasslcd caps for graduation, and wc folt quito proud as wo walked down the Junior lined aisle' at Baccalaureate Services on Hf-v 27. Then ther«.. were only a few days left--------soon wc V v' would bo leaving jI.H.S. never to return to its familiar halls and rooms. ;io began to grow reluctant about leaving it's grounds, car our friends, tfhon wo walked together as a class through the gym on Commencement night wo silently said goodbye to old R.H.S. and the friends wo wore leaving behind. In our chest of nemorios we 'firmly locked the night of Kay 31, 1945, as we received our diplomas, end stepped individually into the vast expanse of the future. W _-A • :-n k.

Their past records have been duly examined and found to be very fine. The first Sophomore wo have the honor to present is Jarvis Anderson.

She exercises her voice with the Mixed Chorus and Girls' Glee Club. The chief electrician of the class now appears. Operating the projection machine at the theatre earned him this title. Ho is often soon driving a 36 Plymouth and claims typing to be his favorite subjects?), By the way, his name might be Svenson. Dancing is the past ire of our next candidate,Mavis Evcnson.

Section V, Article II, of the Student Council Constitution, the first meeting of the new Council was held on September 26, 1944, where the officers for the year were elected. The new Council members were elected by the various grades 7 through 12; the lower three classes (7, 8, and 9) were given one representative e=ch, while the upper thrie classes (10,11,12) were given two representatives apiece. The President, a Senior, was elected in the preceding year and held over, thereby giving the Senior Class a representation of three. Throughout the year the Student Council wa.s active in the arrangement of parties and programs as well as trking the beginning steps in shaping and enforcing a Hall Patrol.

The students of the Rushford School started the new school year by buying War Bonds and stamps on each Wednesday. During the year the entire school has $3252.05 of bonds and stamps. This sale was smaller than last year's amount by about $3S7.20. A school party was hold in the fall whereby there was r. pledge to buy any amount of stamps a week through out the 5th War Loan Drive. To this admission there was little opposition as the party was attended by many of students. After Christmas r poster appeared which showed the weekly purchases toward an ambulance costing $1950, when completed this allowed the school to have it's name printed on an Army Field Ambulance overseas.

To our dismay a very small group of students turned out. As the weeks rolled by, a few drooped out, and on February 39 there were six participants. Four girls took memorized in-terpetive readings; Betsey Huseboe, Eileen Karin, De-lores Rasmussin, and Jeanette Vigness. Wallace Larson specialized in original oratory, and Daniel Prinzing took extemporaneous sneaking. The winners of the local contest wero Wallace Larson, Daniel Prinzing and Jeanette Vigness. These winners went to the district contest at Mabel on Fob. 2B. There were two sessions, one in the afternoon, and one in the evening. Wallace and Daniel gave their speeches in the afternoon. Wallace received a Very good rating and Daniel received a rating of good . Jeanette gave her speech in the evening where she received a superior rating. All the contestents at Mabel who received a superior rating could enter the regional contest at Rochester March 12. After two more weeks of practice, Mr. Anker, Mrs. Hatleli, Daniel Prinzing, Betsy Huseboe, and Jeanette Vigness went to Rochester where Jeanette was to give her speech again. She received a very good plus rating.

E u m ASTERS Music in the Melody Masters’ manner has won renovm in District One. The reputation they gained for themselves began last year when they played for the Lorretta High school prom at Caledonia. This year they made thoir first appearances at school parties. Then after the loocl basketball game with Caledonia,they . ere called ur on to give a rendition which won them ar engagement for the Caledonia school prom. Shortly after this Loretta High at Caledonia called the Melody Masters to play for thoir school prom again this year. At the District Tburnament the l.'olody Masters entertained during the half of the game between Spring Grove and Chatfield. Mabel and Houston v oro sufficiently impressed to invite our musicians to pl''y for their school proms. The high school, orchestra is the1 only one of it3 kind in District One.

MELODY MASTERS MIXED QUARTET BRASS SEXTET CLARINET QUARTET BOY’S QUARTET When 'September rolled around, and the school doors were thrown open, an urge for adventure and excitement caused a portion of the R.H.S. male population to turn out to the Legion Park for football scrimmage. The fellows soon discovered that football isn’t just the thrill of catching a long pass and dashing 20 yards for a touchdown. After a few nights under Coach Koffron's drilling they found out what football really is—a game of split-second timing and long hours of tedious and muscle tiring workouts, scrimmages run over and over again, signals that have to be perfect, and bruises, and sandburrs, and bloody noses, and broken bones, and teamwork. Y . s, they soon realized thut it took tough guys to make a good team—they were all R.H.S. Trojans and they could take it--and th y made a good team. Aft. r a few weeks of practice and hard work, the Trojans were r--adv for their first opponent, and on September 20 they made their d but in Spring Grove. For the fourth consecutive year, Mlford Thompson, now a Seaman Second Class in the United States Navy, scored the first touchdown of the season. Can Printing, Dick Stoyka, Glendon Lauge.n, and Earl Kn itson, respectively, carried the pigskin over the line to give Rushford a 32-0 victory ovc-r her host. On September 29, the Trojans, with grim determination to chalk up another victory, marched onto the Loretto High school field in Caledonia, after winning the flip and receiving the ball, Lix Thompson carried the leather into the Promised Land at the end of the first quart r. The Caledonians scored their one and only touchdown in the second p riod of the first half, and the score stood at a 6-6 tie. In the third quarter,Stovke breezed through a hole in tie line and set the mail bag close to the goal posts. Lix added the :xtra point, and when finally the whistle blew at the close of the fourth period, a triumphant Trojan squad held up another victory—13-6. One week later, on October 6, the Rushford eleven played host to a heavy team of Harmony Cardinals, and came through with a 19-0 victory. It was not until the second quarter that the Trojans scored, when Stoyke went over on a completed pass and Thompson booted the extra point. Again in the fourth period, Thompson -nd kckanimon each took charge of the leather and carried it into the end zones for 6 points apiece. Friday, the thirteenth of October, saw the Trojans walk over the L nesboro Burros in Rushford's Homecoming game, and pin up their fourth victory of the season. The Rushfordites started out in the first half--first quarter, with their scoring streak, with Thompson doing the honors. In the second period Laugen and Prin-zing displayed their talent by deftly placing the ball on the scoring side of the line. In the second half, both teams locked to make it a scoreless half, thus leaving the tally at'19-0 when the ending gun sounded. On October 20, Rushford and Preston did it again, and in exactly the same way as the two preceding years, v hen they played to a scoreless tio, on the ’Preston gridiron. Because both teams were so evenly matched defensively, there was little opportunity for the offensive stars to get loose, although Thompson of Rush-ford was outstanding, in making continued short gains during the game. Defensively the v hole Trojan line played beautiful ball against a team that outv eighed it on the average of ten pounds per r..un. October 25 brought the first loss for over two years to the locals, when Chatfield took u 19-13 decision from the battling Trojan eleven. Bob Glover, the Gophers' shifty and hard running back, scored touchdowns on long runs as he wended his way through most of the Rushford team. Try as they would, the Trojans were unable to halt the scampering Gopher back, and were forced to hand the victory to the Chatfield eleven. Although the Rushford Trojans lost the .District title,they gained the admiration of all football-loving fans in the area by thoir untiring determination to bring pig-skin fame to R.H.3. The only serious accident of the season was the breaking of Paul Stevens' collar-bone, on the opening night of scrirumages. (F.S. He's the guy with the jinx'.) As this Annual goes to press. Coach Koffron is lining his 1945 football team up by spring practise on the R.H.S. gridiron, although four of his men are graduating—Robert Bunke, Glendon Laugen,Ray Lcfcanimon, and S 2 c Kix Thompson--he still has twelve lettormen to work with.

High point man for the Trojans was Knutson with 8 points, followed by La.ugen with 6 points. lettermen for the 1944-45 season are as follows: Co-Captain Dick Stoyke Co-Captain Glendon Laugen Milford Thompson Herbert Thompson Earl Knutson Vincent Higgle EJwia Rislov« Paul Stevens Walter Lee Dan Prinzing Glenn Johnson Charles Berg The following have received honorable mention. Dick Culhane Warren Dubbs Irwin Jelberg Joel Hatleli The Co-Captains elect for next year are Herbert Thompson and Vincent Niggle. Special credit is due to Dick Stoyke who was also on the District I mythical first team. The Rushford B team ended a successful season on iifrhruary £3 when it defeated Snring Grove 31 to 12. This Victory brought the total wins to 12 over 3 de- feats. Quite a few of the B team games were real thrillers, the scores being very close. The three loss- es were not by a very large ma.rgin—two of then to Chat field. The I l tean should be a real asset to next year's tern. Following are the scores of the games during the season: Rushford 11 Lanesboro 10 Hushford 20 Caledonia 3 Hushford 15 Houston 16 Hushford 24 Chatfield 26 Hushford 21 Mabel 8 Rushford 24 Peterson 7 Hushford 11 Chatfield 19 Hushford 17 Houston 16 Hushford 31 Caledonia 14 Hushford 12 LanC'sbcro 10 Hushford 25 Peterson 12 Rushford 34 Mabel 11 Hushford 30 Preston 13 Rushford 30 Harmony 13 Rushford 31 Spring Grovtf 26 Five boys who helped the second five are Pick Cul- hane, Warren Dubbs, Harold Jacobson, Irvin Jelbcrg, and Joel Hatleli. ... . . , These hoys deserve a lot of credit for their worK during the season. - FIRST HALF 1st Quarter: I saw a man Pursuing u basketball-Up the floor they sped-I was disturbed by this-I accosted the man- You can't— , I yelled.
