Dedication Since Mr. Dean took over the duties of band director in 1942 he has produced some of the finest bands in the history of the S.H.S. In the years he has been.iith us we have learned to regard him with high esteem and treasure his fellowship and 3u133nee. So to Mr. Dean, our band director, we dedicate this 1947 Viking. FOREWORD To us, the students of Scandy High, our school has meant more than just a building or lessons to be done or some place to go merely to get an education. T0 as. it has been a llving spirit in all the things we ndX; acne and a fellowship which has taught us to work tug.t er in all our activities. And now, though we have oer: LL the end of anocher year, we shall always know that :9 l as students attend our school that spirit will live on. And so, in our Viking, we have tried to portray merely a glimpse of that school spirit that all of us know so well. Faculty Born in Becorah, Iowa, Mr. Lee went to graded school in Winneshiek County.

DEAR BILL: With so many dances coming up, I feverishly searched my weary mind to think of some small hints of etiquette that might in some unknown way help the students with their problems. First of all, for the boys. Kids, when you ask the girl of your dreams tor nightmares, as the case might bei, there are certain thin 8 you must remember. This, of course, is for the few ttoo few? boys who actually do ask for dates. You must be gentle, kind, and obviously anxious when you make your request. ?ce a soft, dramatic voice, a smooth technique and romantic uialog. Something like, Hey, you, let's go to the dance. I'm treatin'. After a sentimental offer like that,what girl could r fuse? And, my darlings, sometimes it is a mistake to be too, too gallant on the dance floor. For instance, when your date quite evidently steps on your toe donit beg her pardon. She'll probably say, VIt's my fault, which you will deny, and the situation soon turns into a battle royal. Now, girls, when accepting a date, I realize that itis hard to keep calm. But do make an attempt to remain with at least one foot on the ground, and not make a flying leap at the boy, espeCu ially if he's a football player, he might forget and think you're a Keppel lineman, and you'd have to dance with two broken legs. And it's perfectly silly to fill his pockets with your poses- Sions. After all, all he could be expected to carry would be your bare essentials, lipstick, rouge, powder, mascara, eyebrow pencil, eye shadow, powder puff, comb, bobby pins, mirror, change, safety pins, fountain pen, autograph 1Took, a few photographs, and your house key. I think anything else is Just a definite rudeness and lack of courtesy.

Moe started out the sceqon getting 10 points a game for the first three games but after that, he slowed down a little. The most points the Vikings could gather in any one game was 54. This we did twice against Mattoon and the least we could scrape up was 10 points when we played Andy's boys from Wittenberg. Scandy didn't really get started until the last part of the Season when we had some close games with Mattoon and Bowler, but the Panthers with their superior height came out on the long side. The tournament games turned out to be some ripnsnorters for the Vikings when they took Gresham, and then got nosed out by Rosholt twhich was indeed a catastrophel 25-25. There were some bright spots in the season when master mind Mork hit the hoop for seventeen points against Gresham and with Moe getting ten points a game for three games straight and also at the tournament when Lee shocked himself 5; get- ting eleven points against Re holt, but then there mwrm more bad spots: I'm sorry to say, than good. When ole ?Cegd; played Birnamwood 5t Scandyls gym; twell cracker ben;l they looked might sad out on the floor, it seemed as thougn.they had carried railroad rails erornd that day. Ah, yes tnere was bad news some of those nights. But let's take a look at next years squad: there's Moe; who's mighty smcozh on the harewood, and Lee and Erickson. They're all SOpfunureS. Lee played regular and Erickson . a mighty handy 94:0 And then our stringy freshman, Julian Mork, who really catches on fast and will be pretty sharp in years to come. Thompson and Dean, Juniors, are going to be plenty all right. All this season's experience will greatly help next year 5 team. Here's to next year! BETWEEN YOU, ME AND THE BRUSHaPILE By Colonel Lee Our boys made a good showing at the tournament by dew teating Gresham 26e18 and were nosed out by Rosholt 26-259 Scandy in their first game of the tournament dropped Gresham by a score of 26-18. Bill Mork led the Vikings with thirteen points and Koeller led the losers with twelve points. Half time score was 9 to 9. The 'last quarter was pretty close, although the Vikings managed to keep ahead. The closing minutes became somewhat hectic for the Vikings when Koeller started drapping them in from the middle of the floor, but Bill Mork's return baskets managed to keep us ahead until the final gun. In the second game of the tournament Scandy looked like a fair basketball team but Rosholt proved superior. In the semiefinals Scandy played Rosholt in the third game of the evening. I suppose the spectators looked at the pree vious scores and decided that it was their bed time, but the spirit of the teams in the previous tournament games keet them to see the first part. After the final gun the spectators, exhausted from routing for their team, all agreed that t'e game was worth seeing. Scandy held the lead throughout the whole game up to its last thirty seconds when Rosholt's Stanislowski potted 0L take the lead. But Lee made a pivot shot to go out in the front again. The last seconds were wild and woolly, the r; a ing of the crowd and the shouts of the players created a Q? t tension in the gymnasium. There was a shot at this end, t a at the other and now back again and the crowd became wild. Tc the spectator it must have looked like this: Wait a minuteu Lee's got the ball-that is I think he has, there's so many around him I'm not sure-yes, there it goes. It's in! That puts Scandy three points ahead. But here comes Rosholt dribbling down the floorethe hall's in the air, it hits the back board and passes through the net. Wow! It's 24-25. Scandy takes it out, five seconds left. Well, it looks like Scandy's game. But Rosholt's Stanislowski steals the ball and let's it fly from the middle line. Smack off the board and in it falls. Boy, that was a shot! There's the gun. Itis all over. What's the score? 26-25 Rosholt.
