JAMES M. NELSON “Pep” No one can say that “Pep” believes “Silence is golden”, but all those who know him can’t help but like his quick wit and happy-go-lucky ways. As a member of the Flambeau Staff he has been valuable and we, the class of ’43, want to wish him the best of luck. DONALD NUPP “Nupp” Don is one of our bashful Senior boys from Narrows Creek. He always has a ready smile for everyone and can usually be found with the rest of the Sabula gang, whether at basketball games or welding school. Best wishes to you, Don. BETTY PLATT “Betty” Belty is our librarian from Room 4. She has proved an efficient circulation manager of the Flambeau Staff, but sometimes her thoughts seem to be far, far away. Could they perhaps be in an Army camp in Washington? How about it, Betty? JESS EDWARD RISHELL “Muff” Jess is that tall, blond basketball player from Room 2 whose chief occupation is talking in class. He had a prominent part in our Junior play and helped to make it a success. Whether in service or in private life, we know Jess will be a success. GEORGE SEYLER “Si” Looking for an argument? Well, just come around to Room 2 and ask for George. He has helped to make our Junior play a success and has been an active member of the Flambeau Staff. Best of luck, George. And Applied Our Hearts To Understanding

We Inclined Our Ears Toward Discretion OLIVE MILLER “Obbie” Olive, one of our good-natured Seniors, has won many friends. Her jolly remarks often cause much giggling by her classmates. Bcause of her cheerfulness, she is always in demand. SAM MONELLA “Little Sam” Sam is one of our Seniors who usually has a big smile for everyone. Nothing seems to daunt him. His teachers as well as classmates will miss him. May you always meet life’s battles with the same cheerful smile, Sam. SAM H. MONELLA “Sam H” “Sam H” has gone to serve as a soldier for our country in order to hasten the day of victory. He is well liked by his friends and is missed by all his classmates. Sam, we extend to you the wish for loads of luck. MILDRED MOWREY “Mid” “Mid” is one Senior girl who always succeeds in seeing the lighter side of life. Her pleasant and happy-go-lucky disposition have won her many friends. She is very fond of red hair, especially from Room 6. ANNA MAE NAUGLE “Annie” Here’s one of our friendliest Seniors. No matter what she is doing she is never too busy to stop and chat. Her ability to make friends is a characteristic that will enable her to find happiness in later life.

We Sought After Know edge ROBERT S. SHENKLE “Shank” “Shank” is one of our star athletes who has played on the varsity basket ball team for three years. We feel that the basketball squad will be losing a valuable member when Shank’s name is dropped from the roster. His pleasing personality and willingness to cooperate will be of great help to him in the future. JOHN STANTON “Hap” John departed from our midst in January when he volunteered to become a member of Uncle Sam’s Navy. Although we have missed him, we are happy to think that he has accepted a position where he can be of greater service to our country. MARY JANE STASUKINAS “M. J ” “M. J.” very efficiently carries out her duties as Mr. Malasky’s secretary. She had a prominent part in our Junior play which she performed very well. Her life work may not be definite, but we know a certain Marine at Parris Island will have something to say about it. JOSEPH STROSKY “Joe” “Joe’s” motto is “to be seen and not heard”. Although he does not participate in many school activities he is a valued member of the Senior class. Joe left school in April to become a soldier in Uncle Sam’s Army. We know that our loss will be Uncle Sam’s gain. JOHN VAN SICE “Garner” “Garner” would be the proverbial “ten o’clock scholar” if he weren’t a good runner and the bus driver were less friendly and patient. He is known as one of the Sabula gang and is always teasing someone. He is well liked by all.
