She will always be remembered affection- ately by a host of students, alumni, fellow teachers, and townspeople as an inspiring teacher, and a tireless, unselfish worker for the welfare of all. We dedicate, with these words of William Woodsworth: A perfect Woman, nohly planned, To warn, to comfort, and command, And yet a Spirit, still and bright With something of angelic light.

N MISS MCADAMS As principal of our school and as social science teacher, she has become well- known and liked by all the students. We all appreciate and thank her for her co- operation and advice which she has given all of us. MR. MCKEAN lt wouldn't seem like the same school if we were not to hear that familiar iingling as a certain short, stocky, well-built Scotch- man walks down the halls or comes to look in on one ofthe classes. Some say the iing- ling in his pockets is only keys, but others say it is coins. Whatever it is we all thank him for helping make our school what it is today. Many of the comforts and activities which other schools do not have, we have only because of his guidance and thought- fulness. We all know and admire the top man of our school - Supt. McKean. MR. CRANE Everyone will agree that he has proven himself worthy of this position in our school by his cooperation, tact, and friendliness. By these traits and many others, he has done much toward making our school what it is today. We thank you, Mr. Crane. Ar Left to right: Mr. F. Drew, Mr. C. Hemsey, Mr. A. Fick, Dr. H. L.

La Crosse State Teachers C0lle99 College American College ot Physical College - Dramatic Director Education DEAR EDITOR: Yes, indeed, I do remember your high school. Years ago, one of my most successful works was the analyzed signatures of your high school faculty. It pleases me to know that I rate an encore! To be frank, I must state that I find a great many characters- with little character! The first, the hasty script ofShirIey Gorens, sug- gests she has something more im- portant than school on her mind. The round, firm letters of C. M. Rayment give the motherly im- pression of a person who would never think of emiting a sarcastic remark. Miss Moe, undoubtedly, is the mother hen to all the wondering freshman. The friv- olous young thing of your facul- ty, I'Il wager, is Theda Schuelke. Mary McAdams is the aristocrat of the faculty, admired and looked up to by all.

Whitewater Slate Teachers College Ah! Your gym teacher! Never before have I found a signature so appropriate - That of Dena Rowan Krueger. The bold script of Harvey Nielsen shows the sharpness of mind of a man with a great sense of humor. The c's and the a's of Cecilia Roland definitely types her as the career woman, with never a thought for the kitchen. The deliberate strokes of James Ness suggests the personality of a bookkeeper, with nary,an hour in the sun- shine. The scribbling of Mr. Dickinson shows his impatience with the opposite sex and labels him as the bachelor type. Gloria Lancaster, git seems to me, is the person who is ill at ease while addressing an audience, tang- ling up her vocal cords. Your biology instructor must be Miss Reiser. The self-confident D, H. Mewaldt signifies a cut-and- dried proifessor, perhaps your ancient history prof. Miss Olsen, through the years, has developed a fondness for her iob in the Home Ec. department. The fun- Ioving, party-giving, young friend to all is Miss Thompson. ls she your advanced math teacher?

University of Wisconsin B-A- Noffh Cefliml C0ll99e Ph.M. University of Wisconsin The firm, but unique, signature of E. Gatzke denotes appreciation for the finer things of life -- art or music. The back hand of Peg- gy Gill shows a liking for chil- dren. Ah - the Casanova of the faculty - the self assured Mr. Campbell. Mr. Roemer, with his slanting letter, is indubitably your absent-minded professor. The rhythmic consonants of Vin- cent Crane give me the impres- sion that he is the head musical instructor -- also, your marching band leader. Mr. Nelson's for- ward script suggests his athletic ability. No doubt B. Milliren pos- sesses a great imagination when telling her students the things they should know. The steady hand of Dora Dittmer controls all who come within reach. The small, hurried Lowell J. Schett- ler and a small, quiet man, who wouldn't miss a minute of teach- ing, go hand in hand. E. J. Mc- Kean is an eager young man, who is willing to learn and who will some day reach the top. Thank you for your attention. I believe that you will find every description true to form.

Seated: Marian Dohlin ay M467 Yes, it was a great day way back in September l944, when l5l freshmen began their high school career. It iust wouldn't be right to say we weren't green - well, not very green anyway! However, since we were such a bright l?l class, it didn't take long to shed our green color and get right down to business. At our first class meeting we elected our class officers: Dwight Dickin- son, president, Dean Robinson, vice-president, Arlene Gamerdinger, secretary and Marian Dohlin, treasurer. As we look back over the years, we remember the hopes and disappointments we had in our first year of high school. We did put on a successful Freshman party, and also had members of our class in Band, Debate, Choir and Sports. Another thing we are proud of is that we didn't get lost as much as some of the upper classmen did when we came into the new building. Didn't I tell you we were a bright l?l class. Well, after such a successful freshman year, 148 silly sophomores came back to make an even better showing. For class officers we elected Dwight Dick- inson, pres.,Norman Butterfuss, vice-pres., Marian Dohlin, secy-treas., and Wm. Sowle, Sgt.-at-arms. We at once made our debut into the extra-curricular activities of the schobl. A. Barta, D. Dickinson, J. Champlin, E. Burnstad, J. Rose, D. Moseley, T. Jessen, N. Butterfuss, J. Schedler, M. Frings, R. Jansen, D. Mittness, G. Oswald, D. Foye, and D. Trowbridge were out for football. D. Dickinson, J. Rose, J. Schedler, M. Frings, E. Burnstad, G. Oswald, and V. Quick were out for basketball. Joan Dams and William Carson were in Debate. The musical organisations were also well represented by the sophomore class. We put on a Sophomore Day when our parents came to see their prides and joys in action. The high school parties we sponsored were a success, as everyone seemed to have a good time. We studied English and History under Miss Reiser and Miss Schuelke. l wonder if Miss Schuelke still remembers her Block C History Class? lt doesn't seem possible she could forget so soon! Everyone was ready for the vacation vlhen it came, but we were looking forward to being Juniors. ln the fall of '46, 134 Juniors trudged up the High School hill to begin their studies. This year we were upper classmen and rated almost as high as the Seniors lso we thoughtl. Our class was still well-represented in school activities. We had seven lettermen in the class and John Schedler and Dwight Dickinson were on lhe first team in basketball with Eugene Burnstad, John Rose, and Verne Quick substituting a lot of the time. Juniors were also in debate, music organizations, track, boxing and forensics. es, this was the year the girls of our class had waited for - they could go to Prom this year. nder the leader- ship of Norman Butterfuss, Eugene Burnstad, Marian Dohlin and John Schedler, ur class held the annual Junior Prom. The theme was The Old Lamplighter. The Prom King, Nlarman Butterfuss, chose Arlene Gamerdinger as his queen. We found this year had been iust as successful as the other two and after a struggle with our final exams, school was out, and vacation was in full swing. At last we are Seniors, the class of '48. We. elected our class officers: Johh Schedler, presi- dent, Al Barta, vice-president, Marian Dohlin, secretary-treasurer, and Norman Butterfuss, Ser- geant-at-Arms. We received our class rings, selected the Hamot Staff, and did many other things that make being a senior so much fun. In October a Homecoming was held? and Charmayne Damerow, a Senior girl was chosen as queen. Karyl Moseley, also a Senior, was chosen as one of her attendants. This year as in years gone by, our class was well represented in school activi- ties. Our football team was made up of almost all Seniors. The first five in balketball were all Seniors. Marian Dohlin was chosen to represent Tomah High in the Daughters of the American Revolution Contest this year. High scholastic honors were earned by Joan Dams, Leota Hedding, and Gordon Oswald. Now our high school days are drawing to a close. These four years have been four short years packed full of memories of all the fun we have had. W'hen we come to school for the last time as Seniors, we may shed a few tears, but the memories of all the things we have accomplished should bring a smile to our faces. l i 'U' ..i 2.'.

They were found to be doing outstanding work in the Dramatics Club and other clubs the school offers, Band, Choir, Glee Club, Debate, Forensics, Vocal and Instrumental ensembles and solos, and last, but not least, the sports. Other classes have representatives in these, but our class is distinctive in some things.

Such an arrangement strengthens the purpose of the Junior High School to adequately train and prepare Junior High School students to success- fully assume their duties, responsibilities and privi- leges in the Senior High School. In the academic fields instruction this year has been shared by Mrs. N. Hansen, instructor in English and seventh grade home-room advisor, Mrs. Schroeder, in- structor in Social Science and eight grade home- room advisor, Miss Gill, instructor in Health, and Mr. Sund, principal of the Junior High School and instructor in Mathematics. Work in the special fields has been handled by Mr. Gatzke, and Miss Gill, instructors in Physical Education, Miss Ditt- mer, vocal Music instructor, Mr. Mewaldt, Instru- mental Music lnstructor, Mrs. Henry, school nurse, Mr. Adams, Football fundamentals, and Mr. Roe- mer, Basketball and boxing fundamentals. The Junior High School won both basketball games played with the Mauston 7th and 8th grades. Each of the grade groups has its own home-room plan of organization. The seventh and eighth grades respectively, have been divided into groups of five, each group being responsible for reading tables, bulletin boards, and an informal party each month. The eighth grade class has elected the following officers to conduct its af- fairs. Janice Erickson, President, Richard Shutter, Vice president, Marilyn Koch, Secretary, Wanda Wolford, Treasurer, and Victor Burnstad, Sergeant- at-Arms. The seventh grade likewise, has elected class officers as follows: Kim Patberg, President, Thomas Pederson, Vice President, Beverly Maly, Secretary, Beatrice Rogstad, Treasurer, and Norris Rawhauser, Sergeant-at-Arms. Wide reading of reference and informational as well as recreatory reading is encouraged and the pupils show keen interest in and a love for reading of good books. Students are encouraged to read current news and the Junior Scholastic magazine has furnished valuable contributions of interest. This year six pupils earned diplomas, 59 earned honor seals, and 28 earned regular seals. Mrs. Schroeder has ably directed the speech class. Twenty-four people have enrolled in the regular speech work, a pop- ular and valuable activity. The Junior High School expresses its appreciation for the fine coopera- tion of the Senior High School Debaters for their help in judging speeches. A knitting class was organized by Mrs. Hansen. Here the fundamentals of knitting were learned by all seventh grade girls. Fine encouragement and guidance in Extem- poraneous Reading has been given the pupils in the English classes through the direction of Mrs. Hansen. Junior High students interested in Art have contributed to the Junior Red Cross work. For the second year, we have entered the Edna Farnsworth Mears Art Contest for eighth graders. The eighth grade English class has selected an editorial staff and is developing a school news- paper. Especially worthy of mention among other activities of the Junior High School are the par- ticipation in the Homecoming parade and the selection and instruction of cheerleaders directed by Miss Gill. Junior High Cheerleaders were: Janice Erickson and La Vonne Wolford, John Love and Ted Dashner. ln keeping with the tradi- tions of Tomah's school system the Junior High school functions efficiently and effectively in the training of girls and boys.

Mr. McKean believes in breaking us in easy, and our first days last from forty-five minutes to half a day. Thanks for the mercy, E. J. On September ninth we get down to work, and we do mean work! We welcome a lot of new teach- ers, Mrs. Roland, Miss Dittmer, Miss Olsen, and Miss Milliren, Mr. Mc- Cord, and an old timer, Mr. Sund, comes back to the Junior High. Coach McCord leaves us present- ly and takes a job in Iowa. So we are without a coach for a while and our football team doesn't do so well. We lost to Mauston l3-O, but we come back soon under the guid- ance of Coach Schettler and lick Viroqua, Westby, and tie Chippewa and Nekoosa. Band, Choir and Debate see what they can do without last year's seniors, and they don't do so badly. Cheer leaders are selected by a vote of the student body. Karyl Moseley, Elaine Seflow, Patty Hill and Roxy Buxton are chosen to lead the school yells. Gerry Clay is elected Junior Class President and everybody wonders who he'll take to Prom. The teachers get all the new faces straight, and they know whom they're talking to when they ask those terrible questions! Can't fool them anymore! OCTOBER Oh, why do we have to go to school on these nice fall days? Some people don't have to, but they suf- fer the consequences. G.A.A. starts something new for Tomah High School . . . a home- coming parade and queen. We vote at the mass meeting and the secret is kept until later in the month. What suspense! All the girls look sick and pale. What's up - They iust were broke and revolted against Twirp Season. However, iust to show the boys we were good sports, two big parties were held by some of the Seniors. Dick Stein tries going to his classes wih his pants rolled up, but he went past the wrong door - Miss Mc- Adams'. You should have seen him roll them down.

Who were the four Senior G.A.A. girls who got stalled in the middle of the intersection in a delapitated truck getting supplies for the Hobo Dance? Clubs and classes are all racking their brains for ideas about prize-winning floats. Nearly all de- partments are busy chasing up trucks, buying crepe paper, or iust thinking up a good reason to get out of class. We have the parade and the traditional mass meeting and bon- fire, at last - it is the night of the Sparta game and we find out who our homecoming queen is, and it's .. ., .y 5, is 7 1,4 9 if :ff IT - lf ' 15:1 T '39 1 :H '. 1? l ,Ya ,-af A :..c - - ,still Jgilrf' 4- f .-. ,sf .sf ,-, .,.. , . .yup 'np I ,- , ,Vi I i7':f if I I - fl! .

Of COUYSE, even we had trouble getting them open - and every- body's not a freshman, either. Why was Red Quick late to Physics? A iunior character finds his a nuisance and fixes it to suit himself. We welcome a few days vaca- tion because our teachers light out for their convention. Of course, the days were spent in doing extra stu- dying for each class - ha! Fact is, we had quite a few vaca- tions this month - half a day on November ll, teachers' convention and Thanksgiving vacation. We were thankful for a lot of things but the uppermost in lots of minds was no school! Of course, deer-hunting is here again and those who didn't get their bucks on Sunday tried again Monday and Tuesday. But even with triple make-up work staring him in the face, Ken Rutlin had to say home and do chores! l DECEMBER Sophomore Day, and the class has a chance to strut their stuff in front of proud parents. The band shows a terrific appetite even under the angry glare of Mr. Mewaldt. Our basketball team scored three wins and two losses during the month. After months of groaning and blowing, the vocal and instrumental groups stage a Christmas Musicale. Five blessed events occurred in the biology room as Mr. and Mrs. Rabbit increased the population of the rabbit world. Mrs. Kruger received the fright of her life as a tiny mouse crowded under Miss Milliren's door. l won- der if someone gave it a push? Christmas vacation and a much needed rest for the teachers, brings ioy to all. JANUARY To start the new year off with a bang, several of our well known students nursed heavy headaches on the morning after a hectic night before. We all make resolutions not to make any resolutions. We all come back to school eager to learn more and more. The debate team goes to Reeds- burg for a practice debate and wins. Congratulations! We beat Viroqua 36-3l. The same day Portage is a guest of our X 'S ' bs X, Q -. l . h I N ,EL 'Tix l s. 'N .

Wonder h w the office ever found that out! Mr. Mewaldt adds a new bow tie to his war robe. Turning wolf?

The debaters go to the district tournament at Eau Claire and cop first place for the White and Gold. Maestro Dams pulls the band through the Star Spangled Banner at the Viroqua game. February 16 must have been a nice day for skipping, huh? Miss McAdams is troubled with telephone calls and make-up cards, but she still gets around to her Social Prob- lems classes for most of the hour. Mr. Crane has visions of students working on the walls in the cafe- teria - or so he says over the P. A. system. We play basketball with Maus- ton, and once again we lost to the Juneau County boys. We get out of two whole hours of school today for an Extension program and a Washington's birth- day program. We're mighty glad there were people like Washing- ton! The Plantation Singers furnish the entertainment for the hour, and we didn't get restless during that hour! Mr. Crane steals the show for a little while when he brings up the Quaker Oats box. No, he isn't selling oatmeal, he has the names of all the kids who want to go to the tournament at Sparta. The cheerleaders draw out the 25 lucky names. We lost our first tournament game to La Crosse Logan, triumphed over Sparta, but lost to Mauston for con- solation to end the season's play. MARCH Mabel Lawrence's Dribblets show the boys they can really play basketball by taking the G.A.A. tournament. Tomah, as host to the sectional tournament, sends Logan on to State. Thanks to the forensics students for getting us out of part of our classes to practice up for the big speech tournament at Westby. Have you seen anybody around school with a black eye??

Did all of the senior gals get back from the big cities by 8:45 April 5? Baseball and track are in full X. As a dress rehearsal for the Music Tournament at La Crosse, the band brings forth an enioyable concert. The chemistry class combines 2 atoms of oxygen with one atom of sulphur and gets rotten eggs - - well, at least a reasonable facsimile! The Harlequins present a delight- ful evening consisting of three one act plays. Guess the kids back stage had a delightful time too! At last the big event of the year! On April 23 the Junior class spon- sored a beautiful prom in honor of the Seniors. King Jerry Clay and his queen Marise Grovesteen led us in the Grand March and under their reign we danced to the theme, Stairway to the Stars. Dave Mew- aldt sits in the farthest and darkest corner of the balcony chewing his nails off to his elbows hoping that his music students still have a stiff upper lip the next day at Music Tournament. MAY Such lovely weather! My, it's a shame to have to go to school. The senior class play makes a big hit and the seniors breathe a sigh of relief as the curtain falls on the last act. How big was your fish?? Well, no matter how big it might have been, Miss McAdams still thinks you could have waited until Saturday to open the season. Coach Schettler to his Science class: You're a good bunch of kids, but iust keep on studying and pretty soon you'll know as much as the seniors think they know. Now was that nice??'? The last week - oh, torture!!! Everyone starts cramming so they won't flunk - and then those dreaded finals. The seniors are look- ing forward to ci dilly from Mr. Nel- son after THAT DAY. lYou know whenl. , e ' -A l if 3 lj 1 ,is -T ll. 'll fx gifs Well, it's over.

The question for debate this year is, Resolved: That the Federal Government Should Require Compulsory Arbitration of labor disputes in all Basic American industries. The first trip of the year was to Eau Claire, after which we traveled to South St. Paul and then to La Crosse. The outcome of the tournament at La Crosse gave Tomah the right to compete in the Sectional Tournament at Stevens Point. The fol- lowing week the Tomah varsity went to the nineteenth annual speech tournament at Gustavus Adolphus College, St. Peters, Minnesota. The Tomah team tied for first place with five other schools. At this tournament more than 200 students from Minnesota, South Dakota, Wisconsin, Iowa and Nebraska competed. The outcome of this tournament made the future seem much bright- er. On February l4, the varsity traveled to Stevens Point for the Sectional meet, where they won undisputed first place, giving them the right to enter the State Finals at Madison on February 28. In the State Finals, Tomah tied for fourth place with two other teams. The state finals brought to a close the debate season and the end of a very successful season.

This organization, consisting of 65 members, under the direction of Dave Mewaldt, has had a very successful year making 42 public appearances. Our blue and gold uniforms have become a familiar sight at football and basketball games and parades. Various solo and ensemble groups, and of course our German Band entertained at different meetings throughout the year. The Band participated with the vocal groups in the Christmas Musicale and the Spring Music Festival. They, too, have constantly worked for a better organization to bring credit to Tomah High and have succeeded well. Mh Row - A. Barta, J. Schedler, D. Dickinson, D. Trowbridge, G. Burnstod, D.

Early in September, at a call from Chief Dittmer, vocal director, approximately 135 ambitious students responded to try-out for the vocal groups. Out of these she chose 55 to comprise this year's choir. The Choir ap- peared on the program for the Christmas Musicale on December 14, singing appropriate carols and hymns. They also sang numbers for the various Graduation week exercises.

Another season has rolled around and the football team starts hard practice. Along with the new football players we have a new coach, Max McCord. He had a fine record at the' school from which he came. The boys all like him and are getting ready for the first game of the season with New Lisbon September l3. Tomah 25, New Lisbon 6. Shed starred in this game by making three of the tour touchdowns -the best one being his interception of a pass and a 55 yard run. Tomah O, Reedsburg l3. Our first defeat in four years. Boy! What a blow to the team, the students and to the towns people, but remember there is no one or no team so good but what they can be beaten. Reedsburg had a big hard driving team. The Tomah boys did a good iob and held the score O-O until the last of the third quarter when Reedsburg made their first touchdown. Dean Mittness was severely iniured in the game. Coach McCord has resigned from the school faculty. Coach Dickinson and Coach Gatzke will carry on until another coach can be secured. Tomah l9, Viroqua 6. For a come back, the Tomah team battled Viroqua and showed they could play good and winning football. Boehm, Stein and Dickinson excelled in running through the Viroqua line while the Tomah linemen backed them up. Tomah O, Mauston l3. The Tomah Indians met their second defeat of the season when Maus- ton sneaked a 13-O win over them. Tomah had an off day and a few tough breaks backed them up to the white line. Shed was over for a touchdown when he received a pass from Dickin- son, but .because ofa penalty, it didn't count. Barta and Butterfuss did a wonderful iob in get- ting through the Mauston line to make the tackles. Tomah 7, Nekoosa 7. What a game! Tomah has the ball - now Nekoosa has it! Back and forth from one team to the other! Both teams played hard and smart. Nekoosa earned their touchdown in the last 15 seconds of the first half. They also made the extra point. Will we win? Well, it's sure close! Shed made our touchdown when he gathered in a beautiful 55 yard pass from Joe Thom and went over for the score. He also made the extra point to tie up the game. Tomah 19, Westby O. Westby, after putting up a tough fight had to give way to the Tomah Indians. Jim Champlin intercepted one of Westby's passes on their 27 yard line and went over for a touchdown. Thom used a T-Sneak for another score while Boehm plows off tackle for a 22 yard touchdown run. Shed made the extra point. Tomah 0, Chippewa Falls O. Tomah outplayed the Chippewas 2 to 1 but the breaks were against us. Shed in the closing minutes of the game intercepted a pass and went to the 10 yard line before he was pushed out of bounds. The game ended before Tomah could score. Tomah 13, Sparta O!! What a game and Tomah does it again! Yes, the Spartans were sup- posed to run over Tomah by three touchdowns, but what happened? Well, you know!! We won 13-0. Jim Champlin made both the touchdowns, while Shed made one extra point. Stein, Boehm, Thom and the rest of the team played excellent ball. What a game! What a team! Well, linemen, say it! No, l'll say it for you! We do the work - the backfield gets the gIory! This isn't true to the one who knows football. They see the line play as well as the runner. So for all you linemen that played so hard and got so little credit, we put in this phrase- A fighting line - A fighting team. Dwight Dickinson, an able backfielder, and Al Barta, a hard-driving front lineman, were elected honorary co-captains of the team. 4 fi' A pfpfiyl 4 K 3 M fp U 0 f , ' fu I V' ,f .

Outstanding throughout the season was the fine spirit and team work exhibited by the team when defeat came as well as wins. The season was highlighted by many close and breath-taking games. A difference of two points in many cases separated our Indians from the top teams of the conference.

The 1947 season started off with a bang with about 50 boys in the elimination. During the season Tomah played seven games, winning four, losing two, and tieing one. Dick Davis was the top hitter with a batting average of .444. Coach ......... . . . Mr. Dickinson Assistant Coach . . . . . R. Nielsen Manager ................... Leo Schaller Pitchers . . .

Boxing is the greatest, cleanest, sport of all! Boxing teaches boys to think for themselves, and not to depend on the rest of the team. Boxing teaches one to be alert, quick, and ready to defend one's self from possible trouble. No, not to go out and start trouble, but to be able to take care of yourself without fear. A good boxer has a clear head, a healthy body, and is physically fit at all times. Why are people against boxing? The answer is, peopl e do not under- stand the fundamentals of boxing. lf they were educated to the rules and regulations of box- ing, they would urge their children to box. Boxing in Tomah needs more support by the people! The boxing team has advanced a long way since the first year. The team is taught to use good footwork, straight punches, and most of all use their head, not to stop punches, but to think straight. The boys are doing a fine iob and are looking good. There were good fights in both the Silver and Golden Glove tournament, and plenty of good material for winning te l ains in the future.

They lead cheers which made the rafters ring and they lead cheers which brought heavy sighs of relief from the crowd. The heavy sighs were the result of Elaine and Karyl finally getting down and back up again from the splits. These kids have what it takes to get enthusiasm aroused and keep it aroused during a game. In addition to the cheerleaders the twirlers and drum maiorette also add to the peppiness of the games by their twirling exhibitions and leading the band when it parades. K. Monahan, D. Stoll, J.
