The paramount aim of all of us should be a lasting peace through a complete victory. We of the 1943-44 Junior Class have decided that the best Way to follow through on this idea is to dedicate our edition of the East High Annual to our former companions and friends who are now in the service of their country, striving to obtain this end. These boys are giving their time, and in many cases their lives, in order that we might have a free world in which all men are considered equal. East High has a large number of fine representatives fight- ing for their country, of whom we may well be proud. We are all anxious for the day when these boys will be able to return to their normal way of life. In order to speed the arrival of this day we must all do our share, plus a little extra, in the war effort. These lads, who only a year or two ago were ordinary boys, are now brave, courageous men, fighting valiantly for the privilege of being called free Americans. Therefore, With deepest appreciation and realization of what they are sacrificing for us, we hereby dedicate the 1944 Wa Wa Ta to the former students of East High School who are now giving their all for God and Country. Sincerely yours, THE WA WA TA STAFF DICK LENT, Editor HENRY HOIUM, Business Manager Q2 ZW aw 2004 af gem 7740zic4 Madam K PM at In Memoriam For all her earthly spirit's course Was as a lesson and a sign How to o'er rule the hard divorce That parts things natural and divine. Undaunted by the clouds of fear, Undazzled by a happy day, She made a heaven about her here, And took how much. with her away. R. M. MILNES, ,-444Zeq 7 pifltdgdf Wa? Ashley T. Conrad was born in Bloomfield, Iowa, and has been active as a teacher during his entire life. He began his teaching, after receiving a Bachelor of Science degree from Northwestern University. His first school was in St. Joseph, Michigan, where as a Science teacher, he taught all the science classes, physi- ology, biology, chemistry, physiography and physics. He remained there one year. Then he was elected to a position as a teacher of biology and physiology in the Blaine High School, Superior. This high school lwas the one thatl preceded the present Central High School. During that time there were enrolled many people now prominent in the civic and business life of our city. Then he accepted a position in the science department at the New Trier Township High School, La Grange, Illinois. During his summer vacations he attended the graduate school of the University of Chicago, studying the sciences under such well known teachers as Dr. Coulter, Dr. Land and Dr. Chamberlain. He then transferred to the Wendell Phillips High School and later to the McKinley High School, Chi- cago, Illinois. While teaeching in Chicago he was elected to the principalship of the Nelson Dewey High School, Superior. This occurred in January, 1911. During his principalship in this community he has seen the present Superior East High School take the place of the old Nelson Dewey High School building. He has seen the senior class grow from an en- rollment of nine 119121 to one of one hundred and thirty-three seniors l1937l. The school plant has grown from a combination of high school, grades, and kindergarten to the present high school of thirty class rooms, complete with library, home economics, manual arts, graphic arts, audi- torium and a gymnasium equal, at that time, to any found in the surrounding area. Of his thirty-three years as principal much more can be said, but the visible signs of East High's growth under his administration are many and wide spread. During this time twenty-three hundred and twenty-five students will have finished the high school course at the two high schools. Graduates may now be found in almost very occupation. Many of these men and women are serving in our armed forces at home and abroad, and even on the seven seas. In concluding his administration at East High School, he has this to say: I can only express my heartfelt appreciation to all those who have so ably served under my supervision during these many years, and especially to those loyal and faithful teachers who have been my co-workers.

Beverlee Nelson Again during the school year of 1943-1944 the Speech Club has played an active part in school life. The club hasibeen well represented both in school assemblies and in various speech contests. The Speech Club is the local branch of the Wisconsin High School Forensic Association. Members participated in the following contests: Oration, Extemporaneous Speaking, Extem- poraneous Reading, Radio Announcing, Dramatic Declamation, Humorous Declamation, and Victory Speaking. During the month of March several important contests were held. Jeanne Remus and James Ritchie, along with the adviser, Mr. Bole, attended the American Legion Oratorical State Contest held at Milwaukee. Jeanne made a very fine rating at this contest. A district contest of the forensic asso- ciation was held simultaneously at Park Falls. Mary Jean Deemer, Della Welshinger, and Beverlee Nelson represented East High at this meet. All of these contestants finished with superior results. One of the year's highlights was the recording of voices done in the sound proofed radio laboratory in the speech de- partment. The use of this laboratory greatly helped students interested in radio announcing. Les Officers Presidente ........ ..................... .....

M iss Wolford The Home Economics Club opened its year's activities with an election of officers and the initiation of five new members into the club. One of the outstanding events of the year was the Mother-Daughter Banouet at which the girls entertained their mothers and friends at a Thanksgiving party. In Decem- ber they held their annual Christmas tree and supper party. The annual Co-ed ball was held February 11 as a Valentine party. The girls dressed in red and white and the occasion was a gala affair. In May, with the help of Miss Wolford and the Home Economics classes, the club staged their annual style show. The year was closed with a farewell dinner for the Sen- iors of the club. Row 1: D. Matushakg L. Morkg E. Rhinehartg R. Thieleg P. Harrington Row 2: A. M4cFarlin3 L. Klineg G.

This vear. as in the past, the gridiron goal posts were decorated with the feminine touch of the Booster girls. This practice aided greatly in adding color to the home games. In the fall of the year a cabin party was held at Iron River. Mr. Minguney, who was the adviser at that time, acted as chaperon. However, at the beginning of the second semester Mr. Minguey resigned and the club was forced to find a new adviser. Miss Elliott was chosen as his successor. Another annual event of this club. the Athletic Banquet, was held on March 14. This celebration is the high-light of the Booster activities each year. The final event of the year was a party, held in late spring. Row 1 M Deemer, J. Remus, M, Anderson, M. Pennington, V. Williams, L. Olson, E, M. Beetcher B McGauley Row 2 J Prigge, P. Nelson, G.

In addition to one hike to the Duluth shoreline and one to the Duluth Zoo, they participated in many skating parties. In February they sponsored a skating party at the West End Curling Club. Along with the outdoor sports the girls carried on many basketball and gym activities to which any girls, interested in sports, were invited to come.

Mr. Gordon Bahr After a lapse of a few years, the S Club has been reorgan- ized to promote sportsmanship among the athletes of East. Members include those who have secured a major letter by par- ticipation in football and basketball. At several meetings the club has shown films of the outstanding sports events of recent years. Pins will be awarded to graduating lettermen at the final meeting of the 1943-44 school year. Plans are being made for a Lettermen's banquet which is intended to become an an- nual event.

These girls, under the supervision of Mrs. Gudrun McCartan, conductd sales every Wednes- day during the school year. There were three main drives this year. The first was the Douglas County Third War Loan Drive which began September 15, and ended September 30. During these two weeks students loaned 53,615.65 to their country. The next was the Triple Threat Jeep Campaign which lasted from October 4 to December 15, 1943 and raised 354,884.70 This money purchased one flying jeep, one U. S. Army Jeep and two Balsa Wood Life Boats. For the favorable result of the drive, the school received a citation from the U. S. Treasury Department, signed by the Secretary of the Treasury, Henry Morganthau, Jr. When East supported the Fourth War Loan Drive in January and February, 1944, students came through with 59,20-4.35. The total sales to date have beenii-0900 . Very good work, stu- dents! A Minute Man Flag, purchased by the school, was flown over the school with the Stars and Stripes each week that there was 90 per cent or more stu- dent participation. This was one event in which every student could take part and feel that he was contributing some- thing of value to the war effort.

Among the musical organizations of East High School, the Senior Band deserves much credit. For almost any occasion, a football game, basketball game, pep meeting, assembly program, concert, bond rally, or even a ship-launching, the band has to be there, Johnny-on-the-spot. What would a football contest be without the brave red and white of our band marching down the gridiron, and the twirlers strutting out in front? Yes, they're strictly UO. K. This tribute would not be complete without mention of our talented conductor, Mr. Tostrud, It was largely through his untiring patience and effort that the band enjoyed a successful season. The band performed for two concerts this year, a Twilight Musical on February 1, 1944, and The Spring Concert, May 8, 1944. Another highlight of the season was the launching of the U. S. S. Scranton on January 26, at which the band played several numbers. Officers for 1943-44 were: Ralph Johnson-President and Student Conductor. Herbert Haglund-Vice President. Gail Modeen-Secretary-Treasurer. Joan Flemming and Joyce Baldwin, Librarians. The year of 1943-44 was indeed a unique one for the entire instrumental department. During a total seven days absence of Mr. Tostrud, Ralph John- son conducted the band, and William Maki directed the lesson schedule. This unusual occurance was due to the inavailability of a substitute, because of present war conditions. During this time there were several basketball games at which he conducted. Also especially commendable was the Three Blind Mice novelty act, which took place at the concert February 1, 1944. Taking part in this fea- ture were, Joan Hageman, Joan Greene, Vernette Holt, Judy Ann Marceau, and Jeanne Remus, reader. 41 Bb CLARINETS Doris Swanson Gail Modeen Jack Longtine Orene Hunter Gail Nelson Joyce Longtine Gloria Wilson Dorothy Severson Pasy Moorhouse Leroy Bjorkman John Lewis Robert Gustafson I-Ib CLARINET Na ncy Hunter BASS CLARINET Jean Holmquist CORNETS Herbert Haglund Robert Morin Harietta Snell Wayne Johnson Joyce Baldwin Joan Flemming Lyle Holland FLUTES Marilyn Miller Bernice Potts TROMBONES Ralph Johnson Eleinor Reinhardt Curtis Johnson Dale Vreeland OBOE Laura Hodsdon FRENCH HORN Virginia Fitzgibbons Elaine Lee Eb ALTO SAXOPHONE Dewey Zachau Dessa Potter TENOR SAXOPHONE William Maki Doris Olson BARITONE Robert Munnings TUBA Ira Brown Thomas Henley Donald Faye PERCUSSION Eileen Swanson Madelyn Johnson Donald Carlson Robert Moorhouse Bette Yadon Launa McLellan GLOCKENSPIEL Laura Hodsdon lst Violin Peggy Fjellman Lois Lee William Maki Armi Koskinen Mary Alice McCartin Lloyd Westerback Beverlee Nelson Corrine McCleod 2nd Violin Goldie Mix Jacqueyn Amys Ruth Reynods Laverne Hautla Laura Mae Wicklund Jean Christiansen Beverly Branzell Muriel Alenius Cello Billie Marie Moorhouse Patrici O'K f a ee e Barbara DeBruyne Bass Viol James Ritchie Lorraine Olson Bb Clarinet Doris Swanson Gail Modeen Eb Clarinet Nancy Hunter Bass Clarinet Jean Holmquist Eb Alto Saxophone Dessa Potter Bb Tenor Saxophone Doris Olson Oboe Laura Mae Hodsdon English Horn Marian Sandberg Flute Marilyn Miller Bernice Potts Cornet Robert Morin Lyle Holland Joyce Baldwin French Horn Virginia Fitzgibbons Elaine Lee Trombone Ralph Johnson Percussion Robert Moorhouse Eileen Swanson Bette Yadon Madeline Johnson 0 In 1943-44, the Concert Orchestra of East High School had a really workable organization for the first time in several years. The strings of the group have met as an ensemble three times a week during the regular curriculum, with the full orchestra at 815 A. M. twice a week. Mr. Tostrud has accomplished very much with the orchestra this year. He has developed it from a small ensemble of string players to a capable orchestra of forty pieces. The organization had no officers this season except the student conduc- tor, William Maki, and the librarians, Ruth Reynolds and Lois Lee. Two public appearances of the orchestra were made-the Christmas Concert, and the Annual Spring Concert held May 8, 1944. Some of the main selections given were Isaac's Gypsy Overture Weber Suite Verdi's La Traviata Selections from The Pochon Album Mozart's Minuet from the Flat Symphony Fischel's Gypsy Trail Overture. Especially worthy of mention is Lois Lee's solo on the band concert. Her selection was Concertina The Orchestra also was affected by Mr. Tostrud's absence with William Maki wielding the baton and directing the individual lessons. He also con- ducted two numbers on the Spring Concert. During the course of the year, a string sextet was organized, which played for the Eagles Lodge, on March 12, 1944, and various other places. They consisted of Lois Lee, Peggy F jellman, Billie Moorhouse, James Ritchie, William Maki, and Armi Koskinen. 42 I l I, Hagcn, W. Buxton. E. limannc-lson. A. McFarlane. R. Sackett, L. Wcwrslcy, L.

The Acapella choir began this school year with 74 members and has had another active , successful year. It made its initial appearance in Octo- ber at a Sing program. In November the choir participated in the Armis- tice Day program. Of course, the main event of the first semester for the choir and the community was the Annual Christmas concert, given Decem- ber 16, in the gymnasium. The theme of the concert was Christmas, 1943. The setting was beautifully planned and executed by Ray Lerand. The church window will long be remembered and the whole concert was one that the audience will never forget. On February 2, the choir again appeared at the Band concert and by this time were deep in work for the Annual Spring Choral Concert, which they presented March 28th. This concert was dedicated to the parents and the song material used was from the many pens of American song writers of the past and present. Admission to this concert was by purchasing of war stamps and bonds. Due to the excellent work of the choir, under the leadership of Miss Fox this concert was also a success. The final appear- ance of the choir was in May at the Commencement Activities. 0 Row 1: L. Van Overmeireng R. Lerandg B. Wilcox: L. Gusinskigg L. Sandstromp D. Cushway 2 Row : E.

You'll all agree that choir at East has very positively contributed to the cultural life of our school and it is up to all underclassmen to keep it going and to continue the fine standards the past choirs have built up. All members of the Acapella choir are members of the Polyphonic Club. The aim of this club is to combine rehearsals with social gatherings thereby fostering good fellowship in the group.

K The Twelve Keys is a group of selected girls who sing and present pop- ular and semi-popular songs in modern harmony. This group was organ- ized in 1942 for the purpose of training a small vocal ensemble to represent East High School at activities and events in the community where it would not be feasible to bring the choir. It also gives this group an opportunity to make further use of their talents. Members are selected from competitive testing of all who come out for it. This year they enjoyed a very busy sea- son and have become well known at the Head of the Lakes for their fine blend and renditions. Their appearances are listed below October-P. T. A.

One of the youngest enterprises in the school, it is already one of the best known. Ad lib playing is without doubt one of the hardest feats a dance musician is called upon to do. Although years of study are required to be fluent in this art, the Easterners have some instrumentalities who are well on the way. Marvin Lahti was perhaps the most exciting ad libber of the year. Bob Haack got off some fine choruses on alto sax and clarinet. Einar Stinky Roget, who left for the Marines before the year was over, blew a mighty trombone. Jack Hogie Hoganson, the pianist and leader, did a commendable job at the keyboard, and handled almost all the responsibility for the band. Jim Ritchie on the bass, and Vernon Sonny Emanuelson on drums, completed a solid three-man rhythm section. Brother Ritchie also plays solid boogie-woogie piano and bursts into enthusiasm over the blind colored pianist, Art Tatum. Comprising the other third of the sax section is Dale Bauer, an alto sax man who left for the Air Corps before June. The other trombone chair is occupied by Ralph Teagarden'l John- son. Teagarden goes for, you guessed it, the Jack Teagarden trombone style. The trumpet section has the ownership of Robert Puny Morin, who has that jazz tone so necessary to the modern orchestra. The other trum- pet is Herbert Haglund, a very tasteful musician. The Easterners played in the past year at the Superior State Teachers College assembly and dance, Central High School, some dances at the U.S.O. Center, and of course, many dances at East High.

The Twirling Squad was organized during the school year of 1941 under the supervision of Gerald Haack. Mr. Haack entered the armed forces and it was then directed by Gerhardt Tostrud. There are sixteen regular members of the squad with eleven girls as substitutes. They too would be performing with the regular girls but for the fact that they are handicapped by lack of uniforms. Three majorettes, Elaine Emanuelson, Jeanne Anderson, Lois Sand- strom, tumbler Vernette Holt and drum major Ray Lerand, are twirlers for the band and leaders of the squad. Ray Lerand, who is graduating this year, has done outstanding twirl- ing his five years of baton skill. He has helped with the twirling squad, making out twirling routines and has been an attraction performing at pep assemblies and games. Elaine Emanuelson, president of the squad, began her twirling career in the ninth grade. Being a junior, East High won't be losing her yet. Throughout the year she has directed the squad in various performances at the games. Jeanne Anderson, also a graduate of this year started twirling in her tenth year of high school. She has been active with the squad up to this year when she received a foot injury disabling her from further participa- tion. Another twirler the squad will lose this year is Lois Sandstrom. She has been with them since her tenth year also. Last year she became one of the three majorettes. Vernette Holt has accomplished much recognition the past two years through her fine achievements in tumbling. She is now a freshman, so East High has three more years to enjoy her talent.

CATHEDRAL 13 This game. in Duluth, was the tirst game of the year which East played under the lights. It was the injury of Captain Lier, rather than the lights, however, which hindered the boys. The game remained excitin right to the final gun even thou E there was a 13 point margin in the score. EAST O SUPERIOR CENTRAL O The annual gridiron classic between East and Central was held this ear in Wade Bowl. in this ame both teams displayed their ful? strength. Despite this fact. no score was made by either of the two rivals. The only real threat to a score was made by East in the last few minutes of play. However it was stopped by the gun. EAST O AHLAND 26 Encountering a heavier and more ex- perienced team our boys fell victim to the Ashland eleven. Several times East drove down the field only to be stopped short of a touchdown. Using everything which had helped to de- feat previous op onents, the Oriental eleven attemptedjin vain to overcome the Ashland lead. EAST 19 PROCTOR O East, in its first game of the 1943 season, engaged their opponents with a strong determination to win. Spir- ited by the speed and drive of Cap- tain Lier, and with full cooperation from every player, our boys came out victorious bv an easy margin. EAST 6 DULUTH CENTRAL O The Orientals entered their second contest of the year with hopes of de- feating a highly favored Duluth team, The boys from across the bay com- pletely outweighed our eleven in every department, Even so. our small but speedy team managed to remain ahead of them through the entire game. EAST 19 CLOQUET 27 A determined Oriental team was out to obtain their third victory of the ear, but the Lumberjacks proved to be more than a match for the Red and White. Even though our boys fought desperately, they were out- maneuvered by Cloquet through most of the game, 52 . Paulus Urbaniak ff :Sim-4 'X 1533.5 ,, in . , V. ,,. N may , ,ax A gEQfg:Qg1 1f , 'r '5?'
