SENIOR CLASS '42 Once more we fill in a page in the ever increasing volume of Tomahawk High School's History Book. The graduating class of '42 started in '38, a group of eager students from the Department, Parochial, and rural schools of surrounding vicinities, filled with hope and expectation. They had heard many tales of that long sought for place, High School. Many of them with ideas of all play and no work, had soon come to the conclusion that they had to work as well as play and many turned out to be some of the best that have ever been turned out of this school. This class, after graduation day, will be alumni. They were active and prominent participants in all sports and extra-curricular subjects. Nineteen hundred and forty-two finds the world in somewhat of a turmoil. To a pessimist the world looks very black and ominous, but we are proud to say like all American Youth: there are no pessim- ists in this body and being armed with courage, hope, belief in themselves, and a fighting heart, they will make any father's chest swell with pride as they go forth to take on responsibilities that are being placed in their hands. The first Senior Formal ever to be held in this school was held this year. The dance was a story Top to bottom-E. Behling, A. Daigle, R. Koth, K. Smith. Three of the girls-S. Stoke, V. Ball, L. Whipple. Officers-B. Kluball, Mayer, G. Owen. Class brains-A. laesehke, D. Redmond. book fancy, the gym was decorated like never be- fore. The trimmings were orange and black in a scalloped design. The fairy-like couples swayed to the music of that master Cliff Hoene and his orches- tra. The spectators were mystihed at first. Some thought they were at a Hollywood style show or banquet because of the colorful review. The' officers of this noble class were G. Owen, president, R. Kluball, vice president, and M. Mayers, secretary and treasurer. The class advisors were K. M. Cherry and L. Brady.

f . g.,L ls ,fl fx l-Af v if ,fe XV ,. JUNIOR CLASS 2. Itthappened about the second of September in the f ar 1941. Three bells called an assembly at the omahawk High School at which about seventy juniors rather cheerfully enrolled. Please get that cheerfully . Of course, that was the first day. Classes got under way the second day. Deciding to follow the pattern cut out by the last year's juniors, we held our first class meeting No- vember l3th to choose candidates for our presi- dency. The person elected would automatically he- come our prom king. The number of persons to be nominated was set at five. The following day the real McCoy took place. We voted by secret ballot and it was not until that evening that votes were counted. Our junior class engaged Orl Polege's Orchestra for our annual dance at which we announced Jim Ellis, our president. A very small but lively and anxious crowd turned out for the big night . After vacation another class meeting was held. Robert Riedel was elected vice-president and June Higgins, secretary and treasurer., Miss Larson, Miss Floyd, Mr. Joas and lvlr. Rasmus were our class advisors who helped enthusi- astically with all class affairs. Some juniors-B. Nelson, M. Karl, I. Shores. The glint in their eyes-J. Ellis, G. Ellis, N. Loftus. .!, ff-2191 Zt1L.1 Odicers-j. Ellis, j. Higgens, R. Riedel. Sunshine Twins-P. Ball, M. Bartmess. JUNIOR SCHEDULE , ,. f P711 The first period free, four subjects to do, 535 ,. ln confusion and worry, on pencils we chew, V! ' My pal 'cross the aisle is sleeping so sound, ' To rest and pass time, no better way found. l join her in sleep to forget school things, fl But soon in our ears, the first bell rings, We open our books, juniors usual trend, . One starts at the front and one at the end. 1 1 With noise and confusion to classrooms we go, JU! A question or two shows how little we know, Again and again go classes the same way, I, ' When time out of school, in amusement we play. ' When out in the cold, of a winter day, 5 if Do you think of the soldiers so far away Now fighting to save our red, white, and blue, Remember the things that are expected of you. Our brothers are there, fighting faithfully, With spirit and heart for their home country, Let's hold our heads high: wait 'till the day, They will march home, and in happiness say, We've fought to a finish: let all partake, ln building democracy for the world's sake. .415 lc.
