lished by the Student Body of Pub ton High School...1942 ing Wash Brainetd.. Minnesota eR — Se America today faces a great crisis. It is not the first, nor will it be the last. Now we leave behind us the protection that we have known since childhood. We face the future, know- ing in our hearts that a great task lies before us; yet we are unafraid. Each one of us is willing to sacrifice and fight in order that our way of life will endure, and that once more we can look on a world that is free. It is to our country’s service that we dedicate this book. LE mi we a ee RN vy fF ff, | oo oa - .. LIAL SESE RL LL EAA AAAI LOLOL ILLITE ILLIA Take a letter, please. Left to right C R.

The class of ‘42 will soon be dis- banded, but the members of that class will never forget their four years in Washington High School. Paul Cibuzar emerged victorious from the senior class elections. Irene Joki, Betty Wels, and Francis Ander- son were chosen to assist him. The first event in a most eventful senior year was homecoming when the seniors were hosts to the alumni for a day. With Armistice Day came the be- ginning of Defense Stamp sales. The sales were futher enlivened by a feud between Mr. Chalberg’s and Mr. Fisher's homerooms. When the ten thousand dollar mark was reach- ed in March, the entire student body paraded thru the streets to the arm- ory where they pledged themselves anew to service to our beloved land. The Christmas banquet was a colorful and gala affair carefully arranged by the various committees. Charles Schierholtz headed the group that decorated the cafeteria with Bonnie Houle in charge of the tables. The other chairmen were Rita Hennessy Marian Crust, Duane Arnold, Gladys Hele, Paul Cibuzar, Maynel Osborne, and Ethel Pfrem- mer, all highly successful as evi- denced by the spirit of carefree jollity that pervadad the evening. April brought the class play “A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court’’ coached by John Chalberg and replete with men in clanking armor and women in Guinevere costumes. In this month, too, came the tea given annually for the class by the parent teacher organization of the high school. To this came the seniors and their mothers in their Sunday-go-to- meeting-clothes. Early in May the good citizens of Brainerd were startled to see ordin- arily sedate seniors parading down the streets in outlandish costumes. The occasion? Why “Senior Dress Up Day” of course. Finally came the Baccalaurate services with Rev. Martin Lingwall giving a farewell message to the Seniors, and Dr. Walter Judd, noted missionary and educator, as the Commencement speaker. With a mixed feeling of joy and sadness, the seniors of ‘42 closed their brief careers in Washington High School. Senior CABINET Bottom Row G. Bedal, I. Jokie, D. Schubert, B. Wels.

Kk The guidance department tries to help the graduating class in vari- ous ways. A testing program at- tempts to find the interests and aptitudes of the students so that they may more wisely choose their future occupations. The tests giv- en them are carefully checked in the office with the Veeder machine or sent to the University Testing Bureau. The results are evaluated against national standards and in- terpreted in the light of the stud- ent’s high school performance. Kenneth and Gerry work on the annual. Ruth Falconer takes a spatial relations test These are some of the tests the seniors take The headquarters of the annual staff are in this office and here many hours are spent preparing this yearbook for you.

Leon- ard Dybvick, master of ceremonies, joked throughout the evening, much to the enjoyment and amusement of the “privates”. Under orders of the Lieutenants Sund- berg, Britton, Alexander, and Knudsen, they took in stride the Junior Class Play, “Sir Galahad Jones,’ and the serving for the Senior Banquet. They contributed strongly in the field of sports with Jim Gardner and “Tracks” Garvey, all-round athletes; in the field of music with many band, orchestra, and choir members: in the executive field with representatives to the newly formed student council in service to the school with several boys on the traffic patrol, girls in the Library Club, and active participation in other school ac- tivities.

Like the soldiers, they did their part for National defense. They bought their share of defense stamps to work for the $10,000 goal. The ‘42 sophomores danced. They are given the honor of being the first class to have sophomore sun- lights and thanks to patient and willing advisers— Miss Nelson, Mr. Taylor, and Mr. Krogfus, they held a meeting every two weeks on Thursday. David Allison, Marjorie Johnson, Elaine Hage, and Twila Harris led the sophomores on to successful en- terprises in sports, music, and scholarship. Tap, tap, tap—the sophomores continued to dance by adding to the floor show for the Prom with an array of eight girls tap dancing. Sophomores also served for the Junior-Senior Prom. Responding to the call of sports, sophomore girls were prominent in the art of flag twirling and also contributed a cheerleader, Elaine Hage. Celebrating the end of a glorious year of school life, the sophomores held a grand picnic and are eagerly ready and waiting for another triumphant year. Bernelle admires annual pictures Front Row: L.

This year the Warriors were fortunate in placing three men on the Coaches All-Conference team. The three as pictured above include co-captains Gene Brandt and Jim Halvorson and Connie O’Brien. Brandt, who was on the team for the last two years, has earned four letters in football and is held in the esteem of many as one of Brainerd’s all-time greats. Halvorson has earned two letters in football and was one of the best defensive players in the conference. Although plagued Gene Brandt Jim Halvorson —- 3 by injuries nearly all of his football career, he still gave remark- able performances in every game he played. O’Brien, too, suffered from an injury during his junior year, but despite this fact he earned three lettérs in football. He was one of the ccnference’s outstanding tackles, and had his knee injuries been less severe, he would probably have made the all-state team. Con O’Brien Reminiscing ... The Warrior football- team opened its season with a 13-0 upset victory over Aitkin. Gene Brandt scored all the points while Humphrey and Halvorson played good in the foreward wall. A lack of mental alertness, on numerous fumbles, contributed heavily to Brainerd's 6-12 loss to Bemidji. The Lumberjacks won by throwing two touchdown passes on the outlawed ‘sleeper play.” Enright, Cain, and Brandt were outstanding in the back- field, and O’Brien and Humphrey excelled in the line. The Warriors, after trailing 0-7 at the half, finally comprehend- ed the Notre Dame shift and swamped Little Falls 26-7. Brandt scored 14 pcints and Cain and Enright each scored six. The Warriors avenged two former beatings at the hands of Staples, by trouncing the Railroaders 14-0 as Brandt scored all of the points. Co-captain, Jim Halvorson, was injured in this game and was lost for the season. Brainerd defeated their traditional rival, Crosby-Ironton, 13-6 before the largest crowd of the season, to win their fourth con- secutive homecoming game. Brandt, again, scored all of the points, and in addition, returned a Ranger kick-off, 84 yards in the last minute, to eke out the victory. The Warriors journeyed to Fergus Falls where they lost to the Otters by a 7-6 margin. Although outweighed by an average of 20 pounds per player, the Warriors played an excellent game but missed the try for the extra point. St. Cloud Tech, the conference champs, invaded the Warrior Stronghold and departed on the long end of a 32-6 score. Larson, on a pass from Cain, scored the only conference touchdown against the Tigers during the 1941 season. “ ee yp� Dy) First Row, L-R: Gardner, Garvey, Co-captains Anderson and Brandt, Wolhart and Enright.

They started their sea- son with three successive victories over St. Paul Mur- ray, Alexandria, and Wa- dena, but it was a case of “three times and out” as they were overwhelmed by Minneapolis Marshall 40-21. The Rangers of C-I in- vaded the Warrior strong- hold, and departed on the long end of a 30-23 count in one of the most exciting games of the season. The Warriors recontinu- ed their winning ways with a victory over Aitkin, but were defeated by a strong Bemidji quint be- fore they triumphed over Little Falls and St. Cloud.

In the tournament, Wadena’s Orangemen avenged two former drubbings by a 25-22 victory. During the regular season, Coach Adamson relied chiefly on Co-Captains Brandt and Anderson at forwards, Wolhart or Garvey at center and Enright and Gardner at guards. Anderson was placed on the all-district team while Brandt was selected as the outstanding basketball player in the Central-8- Conference as well as being on the all-conference team. Of the twelve A squad members, only Gardner, Garvey, Hess, Slaby and Denis will be back next year. JUNIOR WARRIORS: Front Row, t-r: Erickson, Skoog, Miller, Denis, Slaby, Hess, Waller.

Hopés were high for a district championship and one reason for this was the fine outcome of the squad at the St. John’s International track meet. In that, Brainerd placed third with 38 points. Biggest thrill for Brainerd was the mile in which Wosnack took first and Keith second. Other reasons for the support of the high hopes were: Slaby, Gardner, and Schierholtz in the 100 yard dash. Enright and Quanstrom in the 220. Foster, MacDonald, and Miller in the 440. Borders, Hess and Loney in the 880. Keith, Wosnack, and Jim and Ken Johnson in the mile.

Their three main tournaments are volleyball, basketball, and speedball, and the winners have to survive some very stiff compe- tition. Smaller tournaments are conducted in badminton and ping- pong, including both singles and doubles. Sports which the girls en- joy, but in which no tournaments are played are tennis, hiking ski- ing and bowling. Miss Walters, girls physical education instructor, has put forth much effort and hard work in training her flag twirlers, the first ones in the state, and has been rewarded by a fine group which has per- formed well at many functions. Sportsmanship, friendship, and courtesy are noted at all tourn- naments, meetings, and parties and this trait will continue in them throughout life. 7 Pa 7 ° e bd , ea 2 é $ « . = e ; 3 2 ‘3 bal bid e “ bss eo ; ve bes ed “3 a Sreconp Row: B.

The Seniors, too, reverted to the days of chivalry, but in Mark Twain's immortal story of the “boss’’ in King Arthur's court armor clanked, ladies moved in flow- ing robes and peaked hats, and worshipped at the feet of their hero, Jimmie Halvorson. The play, coached by John Chalberg, brought back memories of days of old when knights were bold. The play was very well done, with costumes by Doris Hudson and armor by Roy Stelzig, assisted by Charles Schierholtz and Dick Besmehn. It's black magic Well, what is it?

Under band director Everett Nelson, the first task was to learn new marching formations for the football games. A homecoming feature was a field blackout with the band forming the outline of a hugh airplane illuminated with tiny lights on their caps. Brainerd was host to the district band clinic held November 8. The Minnesota Symphonic Band played and its members instructed in their various instruments. A joint concert with the choir was held at Christmas time. Colvin Caughey was the star soloist at this presen- tation. Spring was devoted to practicing for the contests and a pre-contest concert was given April 12. The band journeyed to Aitkin for the district contest April 13 and received an “A” rating along with several soloists and ensembles. The state contest was in Duluth May 2 and the band again received an “A” rating along with Paul Cibuzar, piccolo soloist, and Martha Ohlson, pianist.

The double mixed octet, including eight boys and eight girls, performed at several outside meetings in Brainerd. The triple trio and the boys’ octet sang at the P T A. meetings. After rigid competition, the girls’ octet were victori- ous over the triple trio and earned the chance to go to the district contest. The mixed octet cilso went to the contest and received an “A” rating which qualified them to appear at the state contest. This last group, together with the girls’ and a boys’ glee clubs, received “As” at both the 2 a ao district and the state contests and had high hopes for the national contest.
