Southwest High School - Wagistanian Yearbook (Minneapolis, MN)

Text from Pages 1 - 92 of the 1948 volume:

Annual Publication aj SOUTHWEST HIGH SCHOOL MINNEAPOLIS. MINNESOTA Last fall, the annual staff took an informal poll of just what the students wanted in the 1948 Wagistanian. It appeared that most of the students wanted a typically Southwest pictorial review of the 1947-48 school year. They wanted a book that they would be proud to show to their friends. They wanted a book that would satisfy all of their immediate demands of an annual. Above all, they wanted a book that would enable them, years from now, to look back and relive for a moment the happy, carefree, fun-filled days that made up their life at Southwest. We have tried to put out an annual that would meet those and other specifications. It is up to you, the reader, as to whether or not we have succeeded. If we have succeeded, we know it will please you: and to please you has been our goal.

He is the director of the whole project Likewise, it is up to the administration of the school to decide just how everything is to be run A student could no more complete his education without the oid of the administration, thon the garment could come into existence without the coaxing and nudging of the designer. Hove you ever stopped to think that the moking of a garment is much the same os the moking of a high school groduote? It is! To prove our point, we've selected a graduation gown and the 1948 graduating class As you go through the book, you'll see what we mean The some steps arc involved, the some processes are followed; and much the some results arc achieved. Read all of the copy. We think you'll get a kick out of it; and it will certainly make things a lot clearer!

The administration works Ions, aggravating hours in making students' programs; checking attendance: and doing the many other clerical jobs that exist in a high school. The amount of complaints that goes through the administration’s hands, far exceeds, unfortunately, the amount of compliments for the fine job they do. KITCHEN STAFF—Mr . Ha «« Mr . Lindahl. Mr .

Underclassmen The basic necessity in making of the item of clothing is the material. That is the raw goods that the designer must take, mold, and from which create a better thing. Likewise, in school, the basic ingredient is the underclassman. The underclassman comes to Southwest fundamentally sound, but very rough. His knowledge is slight, his manners crude, his desires hazy. He is somewhat unorganized, uncultured, and unfit to be a citizen. He is taken in hand, molded, stitched, and eventually comes out a beautiful finished product.

The garment is made to resemble the pattern in almost every detail. Similarly, the student, whether he realizes it or not. uses his teachers as patterns to form his life. Each of his teach ers is one part of the pattern—all of then-blending. fusing, and merging into a standard which, if followed from top to toe will result in a nearly flawless pupil. Faculty As you turn the following pages you will see the teachers who have been with us at Southwest during the past year. We’ve had our little differences, (at the time they may have seemed pretty big) but all in all we've managed to get along pretty well. We appreciate them, honest, and thank them for the diligent understanding, and plentiful help they have given us. ADAM. W. Position Woild History, German.

Classroom Activities The stage is set when the material is placed on the pattern, but the actual cutting doesn't begin until the scissors is taken out. Correspondingly, the actual development of the student doesn't begin until he experiences life in a classroom. Yes. classroom activities is that part of the student's life which develops him into an image of his instructors. Mr. Anthony, my . . . Man at work. Vision Test in D. T. Pearson’s pride and joy!

Sports After the basic pattern has been cut, it takes something to hold it together: and so basting comes into the progression. Basting is the first addition to hold the garment together—if just in a loose way. Similarly, sports is the first thing to come along in a student's career to bind him together with the rest of his fellow workers. True, it's a rather loose connection, but it's the first thing that joins the rambling ends of the student, and makes him just a little more finished.

Football The opening game of the season found the Indians not quite prepared. Making their first appearance under their new coach, Jerry Sullivan, the grid-ders went down to defeat on a very wet Marshall field. 13-0. Fumbles led to both Cardinal scores. In their first home game, the Purple and White showed improvement but Central's Tom McNamee Co. were too much for them. Scoring twice in the first quarter and once in the final period, the Pioneers won. 20-0. Captain Stav Canakes fine tackle play stood out even in defeat. The following week, the Southwest eleven lost its third straight game to North. 30-0. Don Riley. Polar speed merchant, punctured our defenses again and again for consistent gams. Center Winnie Johnson s tenacious defensive play was outstanding. Homecoming brought together Vocational and Southwest with the Indians gaining their only victory of the year in a thrilling game. After outplaying the Volts throughout the contest. Southwest scored the only touchdown of the game in the last minute on a short pass from Jack Witta to John Ederer. Both alumni and undergrads were justly proud of the 6-0 triumph. In the South tilt, the Indians outgamed and outplayed the highly-touted Tigers but were the victims of bad breaks. South won I 3-6. Bill Sarles who played a fine all-around game, scored the lone Purple tally on a brilliant seventy yard punt return. The next Friday, the gridsters lost a heartbreaker to West. The Cowboys scored first but a pass from Witta to Ederer tied the ball game. Then, with only a few minutes to play. West scored to put the ame on ice. 12-6. Many said that this was Coach ullivan’s boys best game of the season. The Edison game proved to be a show of too much power with the Tommies winning. 27-12. The two Indian tallies were made on a pass from Bill Pierson to Sarles and a spectacular 63 yard run with a fumble by Canakes. The season closed with a 20-0 defeat by Roosevelt. Not enough can be said for the outstanding work done by Captain Canakes. who won an Ail-City berth. Winnie Johnson and John Ederer. These boys stood out in each game and deserve every laurel given them. Other players who deserve special mention arc Dick Schillinger, Bill Sarles. John Miller. Mark Jones. Sonny Hanson.

This year the team not only was undefeated in dual meets but won both the city and state championships. The team disposed of the rest of their city competition in the following three weeks, defeating Washburn 21-38, West 21-41, Edison 17-50. and Roosevelt 21-36. The highlight of the thinclad’s dual meets was their trip to Duluth where they defeated Duluth Central by the impressive score of 19-42. With a perfect record behind them, the Southwest runners entered the city meet rated second to a highly-touted North squad. Although North's Bill Torp placed first in the race, the Southwest team captured its fourth city championship. Captain Rog Swanson. Jim Hancock, and Jerry Thomas placed second, third, and fourth, respectively. The Southwest team scored 30 points while North, their nearest competitor, totaled 53. The harriers climaxed their brilliant season by winning their second consecutive state title. The course at Lake Nokomis, where the meet v as run. was covered with four inches of snow and the temperature was in the 20's. In spite of these conditions. Hancock. Thomas. Wilson, and Spicola finished in the first eleven. The Warriors scored 49 points and Duluth Dcnfeld. which was second, finished far behind with 83. The prospects for the coming season are indeed bright, with all but two of the top seven Indians returning. They're Off! State Champions! Lakeside Harriers The poils of Victory A Bone for the Winner?

Basketball Southwest's 48 basketball squad, underdogs in all league games and predicted to finish in last place, upset all pre-season dope and ended up in a tie for sixth place. The opening game of the season found a strong Washburn team too tough for the Indian cagemen. the Millers winning. 39-22. The following week Southwest won its first league game by trouncing Henry. 34-24. North's city championship team came next. The hoopsters gave them a real scare, leading 12-4 at the end of the first quarter, but the Polars speed and reserve strength finally won out. 43-34. The second league victory was rung up in a close game with Roosevelt. 32-30. Sparkling play by Chuck Schuler and Jerry Connolly played an important part in this victory. Marshall's Nordling and Gustafson proved too much for the cagesters in the next encounter and they went down to defeat. 48-26. South provided the heartbreaker of the season. Although underdogs, the Indians led up until the last twenty seconds when the Tigers dropped two free throws to eke out a win. 25-24. A combination of too much height and Tom McNamee downed the Indian cagers 46-28 in the Central game. The outstanding victory of the year was registered in the final contest with West. Behind 41-34 at the end of the third quarter and with center Chuck Schuler out on fouls, the Purple and White cagemen made an amazing comeback and surprized the confident Cowboys. 46-43. The whole team shone in this game, but senior John Miller stood out above the rest. Throughout the year. Jerry Connolly, who received all-city honorable mention, and Chuck Schuler sparked the squad. Schuler's uncanny rebounding and Connolly's accurate sharpshooting made Coach Adam's Indians a threat to every team in tne league. Special mention should also go to Jaac Witta. Stav Canakes. John Miller. Jack Breat, and Don Dosen for their fine play. I SQUAD Row I: Ne«l Pcflic .

Swimming Southwest's '48 swimming team took an undisputed third place in league standings by winning all of their meets except two. Ralph Stillman, who was one of the outstanding swimmers of the season, came within one second of the city breast-stroke record. Close meets were dropped to North and Marshall, the first and second place teams. A hairline finish in the relay gave North a slim 38-37 victory. Prospects for next year look anything but dim. Although the Indians will lose four exceptional swimmers in Captain Ev Green. Ralph Stillman.

Even after hopes for the title were shattered when the purple dad pucksters lost a heartbreaker to Washburn in the opening playoff tussle, an undisputed third place was captured by defeating North in the consolation game. The team s attack was led by this year's league leading scorer, captain Bcrnie Thompson, and Bill Sarles. all-city defense man who was missed when he graduated mid-year. In pre-league games. Southwest showed its superiority over the opponents with four victories in six starts. Coach Haaheim is proud of his first hockey team and expects an even better team next year.

Al Halley, is running true to form this year with another rough season ahead. With 10 veterans returning among the enormous number of aspirants who have turned out on opening day. the prospects are anything but dark. Indian strength this spring will depend on the development of dashmen. high jumpers, and polevaulters as the distances and remaining field events are well supplied with such veterans as Roger Swanson. Jim Kallestad. and Jim Hancock in the distances John Miller and John Ederer in the hurdles; and Win Johnson. Pat Moran, and Bob Zerban in the weights. The Halleymen opened their season by crushing North-field in a dual meet by the score of 59-36. The Indians took seven firsts, five seconds, and six thirds. Taking a clean sweep of the shot put and firsts in the 880. 440. mile high and low hurdles is an example of Warrior strength In the Metropolitan Meet, the Indians and their 50th street rivals fought it out for laurels. Washburn won this meet by a scant HA points over Southwest. 25-23, 2 Firsts were taken by Johnson in the shot put and Ederer in the high hurdles. Swanson and Hancock took seconc: in the 440 and mile respectively. Although Coach Ha lev says that the outcome of this meet was not too important, the Indians gained great prestige in local track circle' The '48 edition of the Southwest track team has Hus served notice to all that it will be another of Al Halley’s championship contenders.

Paced by Jack Witta behind the plate, the Indian infield will have Bob Pratscher at first, Bob Bayerle and Jim Williams holding down the keystone sack. Bill Pierson at shortstop, and Stav Canakes playing the hot corner. The outfield will consist of Carl Smith, Bob Anderson, Jack Bredt, and rookies Dick Schult:, Bob Eisenberg. and Roger Copeland. The pitching staff is made up of Jerry Connolly and Clem Moore. Pre-season favorites are Central, North, and Roosevelt, with Southwest rated as a dark horse. The league will again be divided into two divisions with Southwest playing in the southern half. The team will have a full season playing the twenty scheduled games. Row I: Clem Moore.

Golf With the enviable record of three consecutive city championships to shoot at, Coach Pedersen's linksmen. led by four returning lettermen. will start the defense of their crowns against a fairly weak team from Vocational. Last year the Indian sauad. composed of Don Temte, Bob Tickle. Don Dosen. Bill Baden, and Bernie Thompson, not only won the city championship, but went on to add the Twin City and State Regional championships to their list of victories. The team as a whole placed third in the state tournament, with Temte and Tickle tying for fourth place, individually. The prospects for this year look very bright. The four returning lettermen arc Tickle, captain: Dosen, Baden, and Thompson. This foursome comprises a team which is considered to be the strongest in the city. Edison. Roosevelt, and North will probably give the Indians tneir stiffest competition. Coach Pedersen says that he thinks this year's links squad has a better chance of taking the state championship than any other team he has coached in previous years. We certainly hope he is right! )00 y � d . Bern ? Bow I: Dick Rccvci. Sid Baden. Borne Thonpton, lob TtcHe Bow 2: Bill lo iey. Tom T«v or, Coach Pedersen. D.cfc Borneo .

Although this record did not come up to pre-season dope, the Indians lost only three matches: one each to Marshall. Central, and Washburn. The closeness of these contests was indicated by the scores, all of which were 3-2. The city championship was won by Washburn. Coach Haaheim believes that prospects look very qood for winning the city title this year with returning lettermcn Ed Gould. Jack Perschmann. Paul Pease, and Dick Moses. Ed Gould is considered by many as one of the best high school tennis players in the city. He. together with Captain Jack Perschmann. form an almost unbeatable doubles combination. Both boys will graduate with four letters in tennis. According to Mr. Haaheim. Southwest will have to start from scratch next year as all members of the team are seniors. Although the outlook is not too bright, there is an excellent opportunity for aspiring young tennis players to come out and show their ability.

This board with Mr. Halley as chairman passes on ail policies relative to athletics. At the completion of an athletic season, this group meets to hear the recommendation of the coaches as to players qualified for an S” and also to rule officially on the eligibility of recommended boys. The ’$“ Club is made up of all boys who have received their letter in one of the various athletic sports at Southwest. The adviser of the club since its organization in 1941 has been Mr. Halley. The officers this school year have been Jaclc Witta and Jim Hancoclc. The purposes of the club are to encourage boys to participate in athletics: to advertise athletic contests: to create good fellowship among letter winners: to aid coaches in uncovering talent in the district: to regulate the wearing of the S and to help sponsor an athletic banauet each semester. Members of the ‘S’’ club have set Friday as the day that each boy will normally wear his letter sweater, also on other days when important athletic events are held. Row I: Don Dotcn. Bob Baycrle.

The stitching really binds it together, firmly and securely. It tucks the raw edges in. and makes the garment a nearly finished product. Correspondingly, the school clubs do the same for the student. They take the student, tuck in the rough edges, and teach him to really cooperate with everyone else in the school. Yes, the various clubs are what hold the student together — strong, fast, and firm. NEWS EDITORS The Arrow Staff Under the motto Only Messy Bessy Hands In Sloppy Copy the Arrow Staff has industriously edited the Southwest Arrow. There is always a frantic rush to finish stories before the deadline, and to get headlines worded so they fit the columns correctly; then the paper is ready to take down to the printers. But even after all this the paper inevitably comes out on time. A visitor in the newsroom is dazed by the clacking of the typewriters, pupils doing homework and other inch-crazy reporters eagerly pasting their ar tides in the scrapbook. The blackboard, covered with its assignments and page plans, has a note system to let Mrs. Zitt know where to locate students on special assignments. When the Arrow comes out. silence reigns as the students scan the news, broken only by laughter as the feature and gossip columns are read. Although it is really hard work, it is an interesting and enoyable experience to be a member of the Arrow Staff.

The Blue Tri is an active organization for junior and senior girls. Their activities range from an overnight at Lyman Lodge in the spring, to service projects such as keeping score for blind bowlers, and raising money for world reconstruction. In the individual interest groups they have discussed vocations, religions, and etiquette. Since all the girls enjoy these social and service projects immensely, it is a very popular cluh at Southwest. TEKOES R w I; Chorlottc Miller, Joan Hogan, Joanne C -on. Carolyn Blrckcr Ann Lcdgcwood.

Ricky $tr Student Council Southwest High School is more active in student government than most schools in the state or the whole country. The students have many privileges and much power as the result of their active and increased responsibility in student government. This year, the Student Council's list of achievements exceeds that of any year since the organization was formed. Heading the list is Southwest's first Football Opener-' dance. The proceeds from this dance were given to the Annual Staff to help pay off an unavoidable deficit left by last year's staff. The council soon followed with a paper sale and then the big day that everyone at Southwest bolts forward to—Homecoming. Many committees were formed with one student and one teacher in charge of each. Their efforts proved to be very successful with a wonderful day of fun and excitement as the result. The coronation of the Queen was the most thrilling moment of the day to those who took part in the day's activities. It was the first time in the history of the school that Southwest had had a Queen, and members of the council who worked very hard to make it possible are justly proud of their accomplishment. The next Student Council-sponsored event was the Hallowe’en Dance which also was a big success. The council, however, did many other things besides sponsoring social events. It set up a host and hostess lunchroom system, obtained its own printed letter heads, gave many hours of thought and consideration to the homework situation and reached a final agreement regarding sororities and fraternities which was handed down to the students in the form of a written pamphlet. During the spring semester, the council sponsored the Postponed Pre-Valentine Day Dance. Soon after this, it selected a school ring design and made it possible for students in the eleventh and twelfth grades to order rings. The adoption of a school in Finland was probably the biggest accomplishment of the year. A council committee, formed to investigate the possibilities of adopting a European school through the Save the Children Federation, expanded its activities and formed a district wide project. The other schools which are cooperating in the project are Fulton. Lake Harriet, and Audubon. Financial quotas have been given to each of the schools and possibilities of exceeding these amounts are anything but dim. The council has been successfully guided by Mr. Haaheim. the faculty advisor, and Bob McCartney. President. ;'J 'JTcdckmd. Row 2: Joyce Blcwctt. Sue Lcbcct. Dorothy Donlin, Ron Shirk 3 � crly Mayc .

Ethics Committee The Ethics Committee, which is chosen by the Student Council, acts as a counselling body for those who break the rules of the school. Their aim is to persuade students to cooperate in making student government a success.

The Southwest Band is probably practicing for one of the many programs it takes part in. such as playing for the Spring Revue, auditoriums, and making concert trips to neighboring schools. The Glee Club is also a group that participates with choir and band in putting on the Spring Revue and other school programs. The Chorus practices hard and conscientiously. This group is a required course for those who wish to eventually be in the choir. Mr. Dahle has built up a great interest in the music department of Southwest with his fine enthusiasm and leadership ability. •o� I: J� a«n Mvio .« Sd � � l. lowe Jacowei loo . Carol Guthr.

Grafil Club, the National Society for the Prevention of Blindness, made a broadcast on the St. Olaf Station. KUOM. were chosen for the Minnesota Music Educators Association Clinic Choir, sang in the all city choral concert at the auditorium, gave local concerts at Edina.

Social We mustn't forget the trimming on the garment. It's the trimming that adds that ever-important finishing touch, that look of perfection to the garment. Likewise, we mustn't forget the social functions of the school, for they add the finishing touches to the student. Of course, the student might be considered almost finished without these social affairs, just as the garment might be considered almost finished with out social trimming.

C62] THIS PICTURE WAS CENSORED A strike of the Minneapolis Union school teachers early in the spring of 1948 gave the students an un expected and prolonged vacation. For several weeks, pupils had an opportunity to catch up on some outside work, or just do what they pleased. As the strike dragged on. most of the students came to the decision that nice as a vacation was. after a time it became boring. They clammered to qet back to school. At the end of four weeks, the strike was finally settled; the schools were reopened, and normal school life was resumed. While teachers picketed ... Students worked ... OR loafed! C633 Climax! . . . Seniors Here we have the completed garment. Yes, it's a graduation gown. From head to toe it is the height of fashion and beauty. Every stitch is meticulous. Each crease and ruffle is perfect. It is the culmination of a long period of planning, thinking, and working. And here is the Southwest Senior. From head to toe he is intelligent, sensible, and sociable. He is the culmination of four years' of talking, listening; watching, showing; speaking, dreaming. I January Class The graduation of fifty-eisht January seniors set them on their way To Strive, to See' , to Find, but not to Yield — :hcir class motto. Throughout the four years at Southwest, the class enjoyed jn unusual spirit of fellowship and congeniality, due perhaps to the fact that the group was relatively small. Many of its members were active in extra-curricular activities, the climax of which was the class play early in December. A double cast presented two excellent performances of Dear Ruth proceeds from which the class voted to use for a score board for the athletic field. The class had many parties and good times together. Highlighting the social events was the party at the Minneapolis Youth Center in the B-senior term and the winter picnic at Minnehaha Tourist Camp during the A-senior year. At the senior banquet, an unusual circus theme was carried out and the many talents of the class members provided a varied program for the evening's entertainment. A joint commencement dance with Washburn High School was held at the Radisson Hotel on graduation night for all seniors and graduates. Afterwards there were several open house parties that provided fun and food until the wee. small hours. In the January class of '48 many friendship ties have been made that will doubtless last throughout life and affect the character and personality of the individual wherever he or she may go. The class is grateful to its advisor. Mrs. Zittle-man, for her unfailing help and guidance.

C69H 0 ear Ruth The January class presented the smash comedy. Dear Ruth,' by Norman Krasna. Under the able direction of Mrs. Boylan, the cast, including such potential stage stars as Jim Spicola, Diane Williamson, John Miska, Donna Williams, and others, put on a show that the audiences and the school will not soon forget. Everyone agreed that the play, of which John Mislca was student director, was one of the funniest ever put on at Southwest. High Man Out High Man Out. a new comedy written and directed by Southwest’s own Mr. Harold J. Gregory, was given its world premiere by the June class. Most of the senior class had something to do with the play because of the rally scene, in which approximately fifty students took part. Lois Schall, Jack Perschmann. Shirley Jeppson, and Jim McDonald took the leads, to the delight of all concerned. The show played to packed houses on May 13 and 14.

Besides this, it had one of the highest percentages of honor students ever to be grouped in a single advisory. The class play. High Man Out, written and produced by Harold Gregory, was just about the funniest thing ever to hit Southwest. It ran for two nights to packed houses of lauqh-stricken people. Everyone in the class, even those not in the play, conceded it to be the hi-lite of the year. The Commencement of the June class was a drastic deviation from the usual graduation. It was in the form of a jury trial—one student facing an entire imaginary city. It was one of the most interesting programs of its type ever presented. The various class parties at students’ homes during the year proved once and for all that a group of friendlier, more cooperative people will never be found anywhere. Everyone had one wonderful time after another: and no damage done! The Class Day program was a revue of many of the important and unimportant things that happened during the preceding four years at Southwest. It was followed by a free afternoon, then the class banquet, and last but not least, a dance. All the graduates agree that the June 48 class was just about as ambitious, fun, and interesting as any class could possibly be!
