Before leaving, he signs the serviceman's guest book in the office. A visit isn't complete without a chat with the coaches while football or baseball practice is in session at Pershing In this yearbook, the little man with the service button represents the returned serviceman visiting typical activities around Southwest. In this first year of peace, since there arc some former students who can never revisit these scenes, the graduating classes dedicate this yearbook to Southwest's eight gold star servicemen. Field.

Valedictorian, Eleanor Hines; Salutatorian, Carrie Ann Olson Since the members of the January 1945 graduating class fee! that the classroom knowledge, the experience of working with others in school activities, and the social good times they have had at Southwest have been valuable training for their future work, they have chosen for their class theme, “A Foothold in the Future.’’ One of the most enjoyable senior experiences is rehearsing and presenting a class play. In “You Can't Take It with You, Eleanor Hines and Wesley Pidcock had the leading roles. It looked like fun for Jimmy Brooks and Janet Youngdahl to supply the romantic interest. Profits from the play went to purchase a practical class memorial in the form of new football uniforms and lights for the stage. Because the class was conveniently small, many riotous class parties were held. Class Day at the Y.W.C.A. was spent in dancing, bowling, and games. Members of the graduating class whose pictures do not appear arc LaRcnc Dresscl, Arthur MacDowcl, anil Charles Sell. HONOR ROM.

Donald Youngquist Nickname: Yumpy. A rmed services. I you Can't JaJze. 9t With you ft was a night to take with you always—this night of December 7. Wes Pidcock as Grampa was making a desperate effort to refrain from sneezing while Mr. Gregory glued on his heard. Naturally, the parts of the two lovers went to Janet Youngdahl and Jimmy Brooks. It certainly wasn't any hardship on them. Eleanor Hines was the play writing mother, Penny, whose husband was Jack Homan, as Paul. Paul made firecrackers—just peachy ones. His moronic helper, Mr. Dc Pinna, was Warren Finberg. Really there was nothing wrong with Mr. Dc Pinna that a good kick in the head wouldn’t help. Mary Jane F.wing as Essie, the would-be dancer in the family, appeared a little weak in the head, but she was nice. Archie Alexander as Ed, her husband, did all right, too. Barbara Coleman and Tom Eckert thoroughly enjoyed themselves as Reba and Donald, the two colored servants. The hardest thing Don did was to catch flies for Grandpa's snakes. Kenny Olson as Mr. Henderson, the befuddled tax collector, and Neil Bassett as the Mad Russian, Essie’s dancing teacher, Mr. Kolenkhov, kept the crowd in an uproar. The Grand Duchess, Olga Katinka, cousin of the Czar, has since become a waitress in Child’s. This unfortunate person was played by Janet Johnson. It was fun to sec Tony’s snobbish parents (Pat Gold and Ron McGill) finally bow to the Sycamores. Dan Peterson, John Taylor, and John Aldritt as the three G-Men eventually found what they weren’t looking for. Despite an almost losing battle with the “flu and other ailments, the play was a success. The credit should go to not only the cast but also to Barbara Hanson, the student director, to Hayne Freeman, and Carrie Olson, who handled tickets, and the stage crew. Last, though definitely not least, credit goes to our director, Mrs. Boylan. It was because of her untiring efforts that our play went on at all. None of us will ever forget “You Can’t Take It with You. 19 fJaHMG Uf, GIgAA MemosiieA Graduation, January 1946 You Can't Take It with You Double date Timely snap behind scenes Radio workshop’s Christmas Carol' Typical graduate The big moment 20 jjasvuGSuj, eMail oj tf-atne Mary Jane Ewing BEST ALL AROUND Jim Brooks Janet Youngdahi BEST PERSONAUTY Wesley Pidcock Lois Reiher BEST DISPOSITION Warren Finberg Bette Thomas BEST DANCER Ron McGill Hap Jones .

GIgAA. 1946 Salutatonan: Bruce MeGarvey Valedictorian: Nancy Burkhart About to enter the world of adult life, the June class of 1946 chose Tomorrow Is Ours as the theme for their commencement. The motto was picked because they thought it was appropriate for the role that youth must play. Bottoms Up, an original comedy written by Harold Gregory, radio and speech teacher at Southwest, was chosen as the class play. It is the story of life on a college campus. The leading characters were Janet Wampler and Marge Reinertsen as Linda Howard, the campus queen; Tom Lundquist as Algic Higgens; John Thomasberg as Billy Drake, Beta Chi president; and Alan Moss and Jim Rognas as Bulge Doolittle, his friend. The play had stirring suspense, wit, and rollicking humor. On June 7, the seniors held their annual junior-senior prom. With a good band and a highly polished dance floor the gymnasium, converted into a ballroom, was packed with fun-loving juniors and seniors.

This play was written and directed by Harold Gregory, speech instructor at Southwest. Tom Lundquist, as Algic Higgins, is a shy but brilliant student afflicted with gynecophobia, a morbid fear ol women. He is pledged to Bela Chi by Billy Drake (John Thomasberg) and Bulge Doolittle (Alan Moss, Jim Rognas). Billy's friend, Linda Howard (Marge Reinert-son, Janet Wampler), has been elected college queen after defeating Betty Warren, the dean’s niece (Joan Lagorio). Consequently, Betty changes the answers on Linda's chemistry paper in order to disqualify her, for she must meet the educational requirements for the queen. Billy persuades” Algic to tutor Linda for her chemistry makeup examination. Since she is confined to her room, Billy and Algic have to climb through her dormitory window. The boys arc caught by Betty who threatens to reveal their whereabouts. After they lock Betty in Linda's closet, the proceedings go on for the inauguration of Linda as queen. Poor Algic is forced to keep watch. However, the dean (Mary Dyer) discovers Betty; consequently, she expels everyone but the disguised Algie. He escapes to the prom and by tricking Betty into a confession, he proves to Dean Page that Linda is innocent. The others arc reinstated, and Algie, no longer girl-shy, takes over with Linda and leaves Billy alone with his indifferent approach.” 29 Hallowe'en Dance All eye on Chuck Aw, it can't be that Rood Setuxvi SnapA.

Aiding him was halfback Jim Dohhyn, whose running and passing abilities formed the backbone of some of the finest offensive football Indian followers have ever witnessed. Under the experienced eye of Coach Bill Adam, the Warriors reached their peak against a strongly-favored Henry eleven and clearly outplayed the Pats in the second half to end Henry’s two year victory string at 22 games and capture their only win of the season, 6-0. Due to an absence of concentrated offensive blocking the Indians dropped their homecoming game to Washburn in the roughest, most bitterly contested tilt of the season, 7-0. Although they developed a passing attack and improved their offensive teamwork, the purple-clad pigskinners dropped their remaining three tilts and ended in ninth place in city-league standings. S.W.

This is the highest a Southwest team has finished in city competition. The purple-white cagcrs turned back South 28-26 and Washburn 34-29 in their first two league appearances. Following these surprise victories, the Indians assumed the favorite's role, but lost to Marshall 25-19 and Henry 24-23 in two nip and tuck games. The Indians hit the victory trail once again against Central by downing the Pioneers 34-22. North and Vocational were the next two victims of the Indian assault by 38-33 and 39-25 scores respectively. In the last game of the season West turned history around and the Cowboys scalped the Indians to the tunc of 52-42 in a high-spirited affair. Southwest had one of the most evenly balanced clubs in the city league. Karl Dosen, Dave Garner, Jack Thommen. and Curt Timm all received favorable mention on the permanent all city team.

Prewing President Prower Eager Hrj vers Co-captain Miska clearing 7'4 ? 'I'uicJz Southwest, always considered a threat among local track circles, found a rough course ahead. Under the keen eye of veteran mentor Al Halley, she attempted to maintain her reputable cinder standing this spring. With only five letter winners counted among a record number of aspirants who reported during the opening days of practice, the Indians this season were dependent basically upon their ability to develop dashmen and hurdlers and the accomplishments of veterans Al Byers, Jack Thommcn, and Dave Lieb in the distances: and George Holm, Jim Miska, Ed Henry, and Karl Doscn in the field events. The cindcrmcn opened the season by capturing third place in the annual state wide Metropolitan Meet. In their first dual meet against Central the Warriors won nine firsts and seized all three places in the half mile, shot put. and pole vault events to earn a 73 2-39 2 victory. Coach Halley’s ‘46 cindcrmcn thus proved they have the power, and if these meets are a true indication of the team’s progress they will undoubtedly be among the leaders at the end of the season.

Each of the dual meets was against a top ranking team: Roosevelt and St. Paul Johnson, Duluth Central and West. In the West meet I l.illcy's hoys placed in each of the first five places to win by the perfect score of 15-40. Captain Al Byers paced his mates to the city title by taking the l-akc Nokomis course in 937.3 to come in first and set a new city record by 3 seconds. Bob (Jose, Dick Sells, Jack Thommen, and Phil Lind placed third, fourth, eighth, and ninth respectively to give the Indians their victory.

The Indian mermen this season made a very impressive showing in competition with the other schools in the city league. They whipped every tank corps in the city except West, who captured the City meet, and finished the season in second place in the league standings. In the state meet the hoys made a greatly improved showing; the relay team, composed of Rich Fontaine, Tom Sanbcrg. John Ederer, and Chuck Blumer, paced the entries from all the city schools. Indians’ Fred Bernier, in the 220, and the medley squad captured third places in the Y Invitational; while Fontaine in the 100 yard free style, Ralph Stillman, in the breast stroke, and the relay team placed fourth. Although Fontaine, the squad’s leading point gainer, will not return next season, Blumer and Stillman, both high scoring tanksters, will he on the roster next year. Coach Rudy Pedersen is looking forward to a highly successful season next year with four sophomores and a freshman counted among the returning performers. s.w.

Under the guidance of Coach Paul Wohlford, the Purple-White sextet earned a third place slot in the final standing; for they skated to three wins, two ties, and dropped their first and last tilts, 2-0. In non-conference games they tied a fast skating Blake six, 1-1, and lost, 7-2, to an all-veteran Rochester squad that gained a berth in the state finals. With their arch rivals from Washburn the Indians put on one of the most exciting exhibitions of the season when, led by cocaptain Wally Lilja and Bill Sarics at defense, they found the net four times in the final jK-riod to earn a 4-4 tie with the Millers. Sophomore goalie, Jim McDonald, turned in his top performance in this tilt by stopping 20 attempts. Leading the team as the top scorers with three goals apiece made in league games were Russ 1 laglof and Doug Nelson; the latter was named as center on the first string All-City six. These boys teamed up with co-captain Jim Miska the first line and were spelled off by the second line composed of Darrell Barnett, Bill Berg, and Jim Holkcr.

Coach Adam, who is the third mentor to take over the baseball reins in as many seasons, has six lcttcrmcn to work with in forming Southwest’s ’46 nine. Working with shortstop Holkcr in the infield will be Paul Opsahl behind the plate, Wally Lilja covering first base, George Armour at second base, and Vern Anderson guarding the hot corner. Aside from outfielder Dick Brackett and pitcher Russ Haglof, however. Coach Adam will be forced to develop an outfield and a hurling staff composed entirely of rookies. The city diamond league will again be divided this year into two divisions, north and south, with the city championship to be determined by a play-off between the leaders of the two divisions. Southwest will play in the southern division where Washburn and West arc the pre-season favorites. BASEBALL TEAM—Sitting: John Bancroft. Mgr..

GIRLS' ATHLETICS S.A.G.A., the Southwest Athletic Girls’ Association, provides fun and spirited competition in a before and after school intramural sports program. Almost any morning from 7:50 to 8:20 in the gym, enthusiastic members may be playing volleyball, basketball, tennis, or badminton. Points may be won for participating in and winning these individual and team sports. Three hundred points win a gold arrow emblem; six hundred, a thunder bird; one thousand, an All-City Emblem. Underclass gym concentrates mostly on the various ball games like tennis, badminton, basketball, volleyball, baseball, and soccer. However, peppy, rhythmic folk dancing and a comprehensive course in first aid arc also taught. A scries of electives is offered to the eleventh and twelfth grade girls. The most popular of these is modern dance, a class whose members originated tap and ballet routines this year for the Gay Nineties Revue, a tremendously successful school program. Other electives offered arc archery, where the girls make their own bows, arrows, and targets in winter in preparation for warm weather when they can shoot at targets outside; recreational leadership, which increases social poise through learning to plan and to lead group games and parties; and biking and bowling, a popular course in which the girls take long bike rides through our beautiful lakes and parks in spring and fall, and enjoy bowling at the Edina bowling alleys in winter. Girls’ athletics at Southwest are keyed to developing the personal traits of social co-operativeness and friendly competition. Sports like bowling and tennis which can Ik- enjoyed as healthful recreation throughout adult life arc emphasized. 9nlide Stany, Qi ili' Qym Get that basket! Big recreational leadership party.

Here at Southwest arc three popular clubs; namely, the Blue Triangle, the Silver Triangle, and Seton Hi. Always doing something, the Blue Triangle is an active organization. Their activities range from overnights at Lyman Lodge to making nut cups for the hospitals. A Christmas highlight is caroling at the old people's home. Parties at the settlement house arc a big favorite for the girls. Here they can again participate in childhood games. The social event all anticipate is the dance given each term at the Y.M.C.A. The Silver Triangle provides a full program for the freshman and sophomore girls. With sleigh rides and roller skating parties the members arc kept busy. Their service projects include Easter and Thanksgiving baskets for hospitals and cards and handicraft for the Sister Kenny Institute. Seton Hi is another active club in Southwest; girls in all grades arc eligible for membership. With slcighridcs, overnights, and a Christmas party at a settlement house, the members arc kept busy. Their mother and daughter banquet was a particularly enjoyable affair. This year’s activities will end with the overnight at Camp Tonadoona.

This group has sponsored a student government venture—the F.thics Committee— Paper sales and dances. 55 MuAic bejxantment Mustaches and bouncing bustles? That doesn’t sound much like a choir, does it? You would be surprised at what goes on in the choir room. Lynn Roam headed the musical activities during the first term. During the last term the choir, under the able direction of O. B. Dahle, a Naval veteran, has participated in many pro- grams. The “Gay Nineties Revue,” featuring the above mentioned regalia, was a prominent performance. A part in the all-citv choral concert, a formal spring revue, school auditoriums, programs at neighboring schools, dances, and picnics have taken the time of the members and provided fun and recreation for all.

What is it that draws the attention of the first period study hall to room eight? The Southwest Hand probably is practicing for one of its many school activities such as providing music for auditoriums, playing gay nineties favorites for the Spring Revue, collaborating with the choir in putting on the Spring (Concert of May ninth, and going on good will trips to Harriet and Fulton schools. The Southwest Swing Band provides an opportunity to play popular music as well as good training for later professional band work. Under the dynamic leadership of F.ugene Baxter, the swing band has played for five sunlights, the Spring Concert, and the June class play, “Bottoms Up. The music department deserves credit for its many contributions to school life. SWING BAND Band leader: Gene Baxter. . . . First row: John Biuncr. Dick Garson. Bob Iianvm. Clarence Johnvon.

Avicuu Stall There is always a frantic rush to finish stories before the deadline, to get headlines worded so they fit the columns correctly; then the editors of Southwest's monthly newspaper, the Arrow, arc ready for a big day at the printers. Tlic editors usually ride down in Bob Curie's car. They spend the day setting type and proofreading pages, but there’s time out to cat some luscious hamburgers and maltcds for lunch. As they return home, grimy and exhausted, they exclaim over the wonderful time they have had. The day the Arrow comes out, there is a hush in all the home rooms as the news is scanned, broken by laughs or sneers while the feature and gossip columns arc perused. A topsy-turvy, scatter-brained April Fools' Day edition, the Error, had everyone howling. But up in the Arrow room, it's a different story as the editors tear their hair over the inevitable typographical errors. Finally they arc calmed down by Mrs. Zittleman’s advice, You'll just have to take it philosophically.” FRONT PAGE EDITOR Evie Johnston Donna Schulze Assistants: Pat Gould, Lcatiicc Mork, Genevieve Peterson, Marcia Roos SECOND PAGE EDITOR Mary Jane Ewing Nancy Burkhart Assistants: Peggie James, Nancy Burgi FOURTH PAGE EDI TOR Janet Johnson Virginia Ktos Assistants: Joan Witte SPORTS EDITOR Tom Lundquist Assistants: Jack Thommen.

When this staff has accumulated enough candids at homecoming and dances, the members may begin to lay out pages in the annual room off the stage. This is done with huge sheets of cardboard, T-squares, and rubber cement glue which gets all over everybody. Of course, there arc big arguments over which pictures to use. Getting the subscription money collected from the homerooms isn't the least of the yearbook worries. The biggest pet peeve of the girls on the staff is having to walk through boys' gym while basketball practice is raging to get to and from the annual room. Toward spring there’s never a dull moment for the copy staff with the cast of Bottoms Up wandering in and out between cues, helpfully dueling with broomsticks and popping paper sacks. But finally everything gets sent to the printer in preparation for the day when the 1946 Wacistanian is distributed.
