Each day for the past eight months we have struggled with the thermostat and battled the combined hazards of rubber cement, unwilling camera subjects, subzero temperatures, would-be superintendents, and impending deadlines. Therefore we’re very pleased (and a little relieved) to present to you the result of our efforts, the 1947 Wagistanian. We especially wish to thank Mr. Ed Freund and Mr. Carl Bakulc at Aagard Studios, Mr. Art Segal and Mrs. Byron Kobertson at the Bureau of Engraving. and Mr. Walter Schmidt and Mr. (Jeorge Nordwall at Augsburg Publishing House who, through their cooperation and suggestions, helped us to make this l ook | ossiblc. Since the 1947 Wagistanian is essentially a memory book, we hope that the pictures and drawings will bring you pleasant recollections of the past year, both now and in the years to come.

CLASSES January Seniors Joan Witte—Valedictorian Mjkij Roos—Sjlutjtorun The graduation of the lanuary, 1947, class advanced its members further toward their destination as “Citizens of Tomorrow, the title of their class theme. This unusually active class was under the supervision of seven different advisers during four years of high school. Yet it came out on top as far as having a varied high school life to look hack upon. The class play, “A Date with Judy, offered the group fun and excitement as well as work. The profits from these two projects, together with the money earned by the June class, will Ik used to provide an acoustical treatment for the auditorium. The senior banquet was another memorable affair with their old friend Schmedley present in a skit given by the 12B's. Due to its small size, the class was able to have many outside parties in addition to customary activities. Included in these were barn dances, sleigh rides, open houses, and a 5:30 A.M. breakfast. Graduation festivities came to a climax as the class made its radio debut on Clellan Card’s program the morning after commencement.

Luckily for Mr. Gregory, the threats were never carried out. “A Date with Judy’’ is the story of an enthusiastic teen-ager who continually and ejuite unconsciously upsets her family in order to realize her ambition to reign as queen at her club’s charity ball. As in most plays of this type, Judy does become queen, but only after making her family and friends completely miserable. The seniors will long remember Hud Nasby, reading the part of Mrs. Foster so convincingly that he was almost rewarded with a peck on the cheek by Melvin (Don Reiher). . . . Mary MeBrien, padded with hath towels, asking everyone if it showed. . . . Morlcy Gutter-sen, hair-do a la sheep dog, flitting down the stairs, screeching, Helloooooooo. . . . Carolyn Nordstrom, charming in red knee-socks, chanting—“The sea, the sea!”. . . . Clayt and the muscle dance on the line—“And what wouldn’t I give to be queen!”. . . . and through it all Mr. Gregory tossing pennies ami paper airplanes when anyone leaned toward the “hammy” side. The whole cast felt that the fun was well worth the work. Hall of Fame Marcia Ro� � Gloria Mycr Sally Brown II. |.

Tea for two Watch those calorics. Mac June Seniors Connie Dyrcgrov, salutatorian Jim Kruskopf, valedictorian Sally Furber, salutatorian When the June class of 1947 marched down the aisle, the familiar strains of “Pomp and Circumstance” were the only resemblance to previous commencement exercises. The class adopted and presented “The Holy Grail of Happiness, an entirely new graduation service which was written by I larold Gregory, speech teacher here at Southwest. The new service made it possible for a large group of seniors to participate. The revolutionary commencement program had been preceded by another “first” for the class. Their play, Miss I. QJ' presented on May 1 and 2, was so new that the third act was incomplete at the time of its adoption. 1 lowcvcr, even with script writers changing scenes at 7:45 the evening of the performance, the play proved to l)c a big success. The much-relieved cast celebrated with a riotous party at Sally Corl's house after the play, an occasion which will remain as one of the outstanding memories of the senior class. Class Day was another gala afTair with a senior auditorium in the morning and a picnic in the afternoon. Thus the June class of 1947 set forth in search of that I loly Grail of I lappincss, leaving behind them an unholy trail of good times.

The graduating class of June, 1947, was presenting “Miss IQ, a three act comedy written by Bill Davidson. As the house lights slowly faded, the audience settled back and the long-awaited event began. During two fast moving hours the story of Virginia Allen, a former quiz kid, was unfolded. Having moved into a duplex in Winnebegushi, (Jinny, played by Nancy Whitney, turned her talents to capturing the heart of the football captain. Beef Anderson (Tony Mooney). Trying to keep her past a deep dark secret, much to the perplexity of her family (Chuck Samuclson, Sally Furber, and Tommy Thompson), she played dumb; and in doing so was constantly in and out of trouble. “Miss IQ was work in any language, but the applause that came with the last curtain call was reward enough for work well done. Special credit was given to the director. Mrs. Boylan, and to the student director, Connie Dyregrov.

The five that started nearly in almost every game were entirely made up of juniors and sophomores, and inexperience proved their downfall. Jerry Connolly, Bill Freeman, and Chuck Schuler sparked the gang through most of their games and Connolly, through his sharpshooting and all around playing, earned city-wide recognition. Since Coach Bill Adam was grooming his squad for next year's season he used his seniors very little. The only senior huckctccrs who saw action were George Armour, Dave MacDonald, Johnny Johnson, and Creer Lockhart. The lack of height had a hampering effect on the Indians. Slav Canakes, the tallest man, measured only a little over six feet. While Southwest attracted little attention in basketball circles this year, the boys should go places in their next debut for every lettcrman will Ik returning. Front rou-: I onald Hutford.

Concentration Johnson first Up and over Track Southwest, state champions of '46. had another successful season this year although they didn't repeat in the state. The strongest event for the Indians has been the mile. I.ind, Kalicstad, Hancock, Munson, Wilson, and Jerry Thomas arc the Indian distance men. The half milers, Johnson, Durkee, and Alford, were also point getters. This year the Indians had an outstanding mile relay team composed of Swanson, Lind, Spicola, and Kennison. Running the dashes were O'Brien. Dimond, Segal, and Kennison. The third strong event on Coach Halley's thin-clads was the high hurdlers, Edcrer, Blumcr, Miller, and Lincoln, who won both the Washburn and the City Relays as did the four mile team. They were almost as strong in the low hurdles where Jerry Greene and Ederer carried the load. Because Byrl Thompson was declared ineligible for city competition, the Indians didn't have their usual strength in the weight events. Win Johnson, Moran, and Hildebrand got points with the shot and discus. Bartlc, Purdy, and Dosen worked with broad jump, high jump, and pole vault. Oh, Judge!

Silver Tri, Blue Tri, and Seton Hi arc three clubs which add zest and interest to the school routine for many Southwest girls. Silver Tri is the younger branch of the Y-Teens made up of ninth and tenth graders. It is an energetic group which attracts many girls with its numerous and varied activities. Its special projects this year have included the sending of a Thanksgiving basket and the helping with the Christmas Seal drive. A sleigh ride stands out as an important social event. The always active Blue Tri inaugurated a new idea this year with its interest groups. They have covered such fields as drama, racial prejudice, lx y and girl relationships, bridge playing, and charm. Keeping bowling scores for the blind and caring for the school lost and found have been its prime service projects. Social affairs have included a joint barn dance with Silver Tri and West High Y-Teens and the annual overnight at Lyman Lodge. Seton Hi, which admits girls from all grades, has had a full program with its havridc, overnight, and spring tea. Knitting bed socks for the Red Cross has been an interesting and worthwhile pastime for Seton Hi members.

B. Dahlc’s favorite quip. The band, choir and glee club have been busy every minute of the time practicing for and putting on programs and concerts here and at churches and other schools. There have been the Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter programs for the students, the Christmas concert and the P.T.A. concert for the parents, anil the choir’s trips to the auditorium for the M.E.A. sing, to Patrick Henry and to Washburn, to St. Olaf College for their spring festival, and to WCCO for their big program over the air. Just in ease you would like to know a little more about these programs we’ll describe one or two of them more completely. The evening Christmas concert was an exciting spectacle of Christmas trees, colored lights, choir robes, and a gorgeous stage setting. The choir added to the festive spirit by singing several appropriate songs and the band did some wonderful accompanying and solos. The Easter program, which was given in an auditorium, was solemnly beautiful with its lighted cross, palms, psuedo-stained glass windows, and religious songs rendered by the choir. Altogether, it is certainly agreed that this has been a wonderful year for the musicians. CHOIR Front row: Mr. I 4hie. . . . Row two: Elizabeth Jobes, John Johnson, Bob McCartney. . . .

CHARLES CHADBOURN CIRCULATION DORIS KEMP and ROSEMARY STEIGLER ADVISER . MRS. MARGARET B. ZITTLEMAN PRINCIPAL CASPER C. MINTY Under the motto “Only A Messy Bessy Hands In Sloppy Copy” the Arrow stall has industriously edited its monthly copy of “The Southwest Arrow. Aside from the actual writing of school news by these inch-crazy reporters, perhaps the most colorful aspect is the news room itself. A visitor is dazed by the hubbub of the typewriters, pupils translating their French homework and that inevitable 1,1 ‘ .2,3” of the headline writers. The blackboard covered with its assignments and page plans has the interesting feature of a note system to let Mrs. Zitt know where to locate students on special assignments. This year as a result of the P.T.A. rummage sale the Arrow room acquired some unusual decorations in the figure of a “dc-horned plaster deer, a bouquet of artificial roses, and a goldfish bowl. This last lovely acquisition is now the residence of the staff’s goldfish mascots. Slug and Set. Perhaps they arc the only calm individuals on the scene as the staff continues to prove a successful school newspaper can be produced under the reign ol informality. 68 Student Council The Southwest Student Council, which has become the governing body of the students and a means of contact between students and faculty, has enjoyed a year of increased responsibility and achievement. In addition it has worked in close cooperation with the P.T.A. The council’s list of accomplishments is long and varied. New football uniforms, concessions at games, homework standards, lunchroom control, club regulation, the ethics committee, and certain forms of student discipline were underwritten. A student handbook entitled “The Yusaya, an Indian word meaning guide, greeted the freshmen and aided them in finding their way around as well as keeping them informed about Southwest’s curricular program and its short but lustrous history. Paper sales solved most of the council's financial worries for the year ami provided a class-free day. On paper sale days drivers cram the parking lot with their jalopies and family Cadillacs. During the morning cars whiz merrily in and out of the muddy parking lot (it usually rains) as drivers and helpers work industriously to bring in paper. By two o’clock or so the job is completed and the rest of the afternoon is spent in neighborhood coke bars. Except for several small incidents such as Doug Pearson’s independent trailer bounding onto the street car tracks the day ends without mishap. The whole week before homecoming was like a slay at the county fair—committee meetings, arguments, and last minute changes. But the actual ceremonies ran smoothly with the school and its warriors decked out in Indian regalia. The day reached its climax with the dedication of the Southwest Memorial Field. The only disappointment was the walloping our team took at the hands of the millers (26-0). At the homecoming dance given by the council well over 600 people thronged the Indian gym where the pow wow was held, adding $250 to the council treasury. Our program has been successful only through student cooperation and proper administration. Our faculty advisor, Mr. Evan L. Haaheim, has given his time, support, and an amazing amount of patience to the group. The council was guided by Jim Kruskopt, President; Carolyn Campbell, Vice President; Sally Furber, Cx rrcsjx nding Secretary; Betty Curie, Secretary; Bill Plummer, Treasurer; and Bob McCartney, Sergeant-at-Arms. front ruu : Mr. Evan Haaheim.
