Sauk City High School - Sauk Log Yearbook (Sauk City, WI)

Text from Pages 1 - 90 of the 1951 volume:

Because a reliable character is the only dependable promise of prcper future behavior, the primary aim of education on the process side is, not book learning, as has often been held in the past, but character building, including therein proper personality adjustment, If we accept Kilpatrick's philosophy, as stated above, then we, here, in Sauk City High School must be concerned with the development of individuals with reliable and dependable character possessed of appropriate attitudes, habits, skills, knowledge, and creative intelligence for meeting life's problems as they leave our school and take their place in society. To the business men of Sauk (City who have so faithfully helped i us in making the production of annuals possible this year and in the years past we, the students of Sauk High, wish to dedicate this annual. —— -----------------— Jct ncz - G2Aef.£c6 jfetfL tfecitA p- ML MMk fyaAy- TfyaJGferpjxiJix: CUjU t£7U Tj ftA - fju ty fyaAy-JutMAafy L femeq 7?lC Ocri n(, ftuut uruu Uom£ o LomZc K f xda Jexx te Gxtzh (IrmAnLfrdjqS 3 ?- ff5- Stuitent Gttuneil Left to Right: Weynand, Ferger, Bongard, Klrchsteln, Dederlch, Breunlg, Hudson, Meyer, Thelsen, Palmer, Doudna.

Is composed of two representatives from each class and one represent- ative from each activity group. The Council's responsibilities Included the supervision of homecoming and all school parties, noon hour recreation, and the school lunch program. Their new plan for electing the homecoming queen from the entire student body was found successful. Prizes for the best floats In the homecoming parade were awarded by the Council. A seating chart for the lunch room was drawn up to prevent confusion and a successful noon hour recreation program was estab- lished. Included among the extra activities the Council sponsored were the Hal- loween hard-tlme costume party, a penny drive to help build a United Nations fountain In New York, a Christmas party, sportsmanship day, and the purchase of a large framed picture from an art exhibit held In school. Through the leadership of LaVerae Breunlg and Mr. KcGulne, the Student Council took an active part In organizing and directing school activities.

Glass «Ijistwg One September morning In 1947, forth-seven scared freshmen took a big, uncertain step Into the adult world. We were mighty proud to be In high school but Initiation took some of the cockiness out of us and left us rather meek. We realized that we'd have to wait a few years before we could look down on the other students. During our freshman year, Wayne Fisher, Francis Orlffln, Arlene Bonham, and Maieel Quads withdrew. We began our sophomore year with forty—three students and a great deal more confidence. It was now our turn to welcome the Incoming freshmen and welcome them we did! Phyllis Hudson Joined our ranks this year, while Doro- thy Holmes, Marlene Holdener, Elaine Elslng, and Jerry Church withdrew. Margie Christiansen and Marjory Comstock entered our class this year, but they also Dlok Hanson and Darrel Kuhl Joined us during our Junior year, making our class enrollment forty-two. Our JUnlor Prom was a great success, with Keith Zastrow and Ruth Fasklng leading the grand march as king and queen. Betty Wagner failed to return for our senior year, making our final number of graduates forty-one. LaVern Breunlg was president of the Student Council. Throughout all four years, our olass was well represented in sports, band, chorus, and forensics. , _ . .. _ We may be glad to leave the old brain factory, but we'll never forget the many pleasant hours we've spent under Its friendly roof. When we began school, we had the Intention of blowing that friendly roof sky-high, but since we fail- ed, we leave that feat for some other freshman class to attempt. Now that we are seniors and know that we have reached that stage where we may feel superior to the lower olaesmen. It no longer seems too Important tous. With the world In Its present condition, our most outstanding Interest Is what will happen next and what we can do to make this world a better one for our children. The future years are very uncertain, and many a time we may wish we were back here without a worry In the world—not a serious one—but I am sure there will be many times when the training and guidance we received here In Sauk High will aid us In our decisions. Vty h Ssntot ‘Glass! A seven o'clock dinner for the Senior Class and faculty was held Wednesday evening, January 31 In the City Hall. Before we ate, we sang America followed by a toast proposed by Ruth Fasklng to the future prosperity of the class. We then sang Viva la Senior Class. After partaking of the delicious turkey dinner prepared for us by Butch Brownrlgg, we held a short program. Mr. Leahy and our class president, Mary Anhalt, addressed the class. Robert Kahn read a list of class personalities concluding with The Thing —the Senior Class of '51. Mr. Simonson recited a few interesting facts and figures of which the class should be proud, and he also read the outcome of the students and faculty's voting for the senior boy and girl most likely to succeed. A dance in the school gym followed the dinner. The decora- tions were centered around Valen- tine's Day. The evening was a huge success and we hope to see the senior dinner-dance become an annual event in Sauk High.

Jeff Adams, the leading male charaoter in the play, is what may be called a Brother Qoose to his orphaned brother and sisters. The Adams have trouble keeping a maid and when Peggy, a hosiery saleswoman, comes to call and is mis- taken for the new maid who is expected, she decides the change would be good for her. She is a big success, both in putting the household to rights and in winning Jeff's heart. Of course, the road of love never runs smoothly—they have their troubles—but the play ends as all plays rightfully should—happily! The hilarious antics of Hyacinth, the football-loving ten-year old and of Wes, the girl-crazy seventeen-year old, along with the splendid portrayals by the other actors, helped to make this play a fine exhibition of showmanship.

At 10:30 the grand march was led by King Ramon Reutter, Queen Darlene Maler, and the court of honor composed of Marilyn Madison, Ellen Cafllsch, June Doulna, Margie Ballweg, and Ruth Pape. The decorations were centered around a Dutch theme with a waterfall and a little Dutch mill and dozens of bright-colored tulips. Dutch costumes were worn by the girls as they served the punch in the refreshment room. Hal Edwards and his orchestra provided the dreamy music which had us all all swaying—even the tulips! Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Reutter and Mr. and Mrs. Adam Maler were the chap- erones of the gala affair. ♦ Kathleen Baer John Becker Clarice Bongard Sari Breunlg Frank Ehl Joan Emery Donald Fasklng Margie Faee Joanne Fasehender Roman Frey Kenneth Fritz Dorothy Haas Frank Haselwander Loralne Haselwander Gerald Holdrldge James Hornung Frederick Klrchsteln Gloria Leldlg Elaine Mack Duane Maly Mary Alice Marx Jack Plernot Geraldine Pings Ruth Rauls Gregory Reuter Ray Schmitz Daniel Seller Betty Lou Simon June Sorg Rose Speth Dale Von Behren Patrick Walsh Charles Wlpperfurth Joanne Young Bae r1 s c t rl.
