It will be the 75th class to graduate from Watertown High School. The present Webster school was the site of our first hiqh school. It was from here that the Class of 1873 graduated. Later it was moved to the armory until our building was built in 19 6. When the 148 students gather together in the gym for graduation exer- cises in Iune, it will be hard to visualize the graduation of 1873. Only fourteen students came forth for their diplomas. Hnd boys, if you think there are too many girls in school now, the Class of 1873 consisted of thirteen girls and one boy. Their names are listed below according to their standing. Emma Griffith Hddie Randall Rosa Bernhard Ftnna Ross Minna Voss Ida Wilder Emma Charboneau Iosie Kem I-lnna Shillcox Hlbert Bellack Iennie Ross Kate Owens Iosie Ruebhausen Celia Boughton Some things were. of course, very different from now. For instance, the first graduating class was given preference as substitute teachers. They were to receive the same pay as the regular teachers. In a very short time after their graduation the Misses Rosa Bernhard, Emma Griffith, Minna Voss, Emma Charboneau, Hnna Ross, lda Wilder, and Hnna Shillcox were hired as full time teachers. lust think, girls, you could graduate in Iune and, without those four years of College you're eagerly looking forward to, come back next Sep- tember on an equal basis with those teachers who have been giving you such a hard time. Startling results were obtained from a survey taken of the number of seniors' parents and grandparents graduating during the last seventy-five years. Only sixteen students had one of their parents graduate from Watertown High School: three had two parents graduate and two students had a grandmother graduate. Organizations have been part of the school for many years. Our pres- ent orchestra and chorus are offsprings of organizations begun about 1910. Sports began slowly because of poor playing facilities, but they have since made up for the late start. In fact, our basketball team has won the state tourn- aments in 1928 and 1939. In addition, both basketball and football teams have won many other awards for such tournaments as regional and sectional. Let's go back into the years and imagine what things were like in our grandmother's time. Was she taken riding in big shining six cyclinder models? Did she wear a skirt and sweater and was her escort dressed in sport clothes? Did she behave in the same exemplary way when in school? Hnd compare our super highways with the plank road of grandfather's time. You may find a different picture of things now from what we picture as happening years ago. but way down deep you'll find you and your grandmother or grandfather are not so very different. Things change on the outside, but human nature is pretty much the same. 1 EL!! ww v W WW J W6 ' W LL' M Wjfw WW? M f ,, V pipfvf 4 W NW ff x M5 : V 2 x .

Schultz HE ORBIT 41 joofgaff 58265011 'Ihe Watertown gridders started the season very well with a 12-0 vic- tory over a rather weak Ripon team. Our spirits soared and it looked as if we finally would have a rather good football season. It was in this game that the famous Wallman attempt for the extra point , took place. Hs you all know the ball didn't cooperate and it simply bobbled into the line. Our hopes received a rude shock as we absorbed a 24 to 0 licking at the hands of the Ianesville Bluejays. They had too much of everything and al- though Watertown fought back valiantly they finally had to accept defeat. 'lhe Beaver Dam game was a bitter pill to swallow. The score was tied at the half, but during the second half Watertown's offensive couldn't get up enough punch to score. Final score 14 to 7. Hlthough leading at the half 14 to 7, we lost to Portage 27 to 14, due to another poor second half. Hfter playing another excellent first half game at Marinette we lost 34 to 21. The score at the half was 7 to 7. Hfter winning for three quarters of the Eau Claire game, we lost 14 to 7. It looked as if we were going to win this one, but again we failed in the last half. During the first half we pushed them all over the field counting one touch- down and just missing 3 others, but once more we pulled a complete reversal after the rest. Our chief claim to fame in the La Crosse Logan game, which we lost 26-6, is the fact that we were one of the two teams to score against the power- ful Logan team this season. 'Ihe Oconomowoc game was another contest that we lost in the second period. Cooney's off-tackle plays and end runs were just too much and we lost the final game of the season 20 to 14. .J A SQUAD COHCH , . HRNOLD LHNDSVERK I-lSS'T. COHCH . .

HE oRsl'r 47 CGIHIQMJ Z?6ll'lJ The Campus Band is an organization composed of students from the high school band and orchestra. The big job oi the band is to provide music for the high school social hours, affording the members valuable experience. Every band must practice, and this little band holds practice on Thursday eve- nings from 7:00 P. M. to 9:00 P. M. During this practice the musicians get a few pointers from the high school music director, Mr. Stratman. The band sometimes cuts a few discs, and in years to come, some of the musicians will be able to sit back and listen to a record made by the Cam- pus Band and relive old memories. This picture shows only the originators of the band because new mem- bers have been added since the beginning of the year.

H. is an intra-curricular activity having its origin and root in a definite part of the school curriculum, vocational agri- culture. Members learn, through active participation, how to conduct and take part in public meetings: to speak in public: to buy and sell co-operatively: to solve their own problems: to finance themselves: and to assume civic respon- sibility. The foundation on which the F. F. H. is built includes leadership, char- acter development, sportsmanship, co-operation, service, thrift, scholarship, im- proved agriculture, organized recreation, citizenship, and patriotism. There are four grades or degrees of active membership: Green Hands, Future Farmer, State Farmer, and Hmerican Farmer. The number of Green Hands initiated at Iohnson Creek for our club was eleven. The Future Farmers number twenty-three with State Farmer, Norbert Schactner. Kenneth Finder has sent in his application for State Farmer. The officers attended the Iunior Leadership Training School at Fort Ht- kinson where the state-wide safety program was discussed. In a contest requiring speech work, Kenneth Finder won high honors and competed against surrounding schools in the district contest. The officers are: President ,..,.... a .,.,. ..,.

The Beaver Dam game was a little tougher, but after playing a good game, Water- town won 36 to 32. One of the outstanding plays of the night was Iim Hoffman's push shot from the side of the floor right before the first half ended. Watertown's first setback of the season came in the Whitefish Bay game. Our boys couldn't hit the hoop: also, Don Fee was hurt early in the game and most of our players had the ilu. We got back on the victory bandwagon in the Columbus game. The score was close. 42 to 39, but our boys had things under control throughout the game. The team just had an off day when they played North Fond du Lac: they couldn't get the offense going. When we were de- feated in the Wauwatosa game it was no fault of ours, as those Red Raiders are just too good. They proved it too, by becoming state champs. Rh, victory again and it surely seemed good after two straight defeats. Oconomowoc was the victim this time. Edgewood defeated us in the next game 54 to 38, but one of Watertown's better memories of that game was Ken Nehring's 19 points. Stretch was really on that night and played a whale of a game. Iack Fendt also played a good game, stealing the ball almost at will from the Crusaders' guards. The defeat by Horicon 40 to 39 was a tough one to lose. Ken Nehring had 15 points the first half, but in the second period the boys from Horicon had Ken pretty well bottled up and he scored only 2 points. Revenge tasted very sweet as we defeated Whitefish Bay 45 to 43. It helped to even things as Whitefish Bay was ahead 12 points at the end of three quarters, when the boys in blue got hot. With thirty seconds to go, Don Fee tied the score at 43 all and then with five seconds on the clock, lim Hoffman put in the winning bucket. The Goslings had an off day and they suffered a 40 to 30 defeat at the hands of Ripon. The loss was a big disappointment to Don Fee as he would have liked nothing better than to beat the boys from his home town. The Goslings really controlled the ball in a hard fought game with Port Washington. Our boys gobbled rebounds off both boards and thus gained a well eamed 37 to 35 victory. It was Iim Craine's birthday and the team gave him a present that he'll remember for a long time. The Watertown Team won another 42 to 41 victory over Beaver Dam. This made two close games in a row, but we weren't complaining as long as we won them. lim Hoffman won the game in the last few seconds, as he calmly dumped in two free throws. But the real hero of the game was Don Fee, who had a very good night and was high scorer with 19 points. Watertown ran into a red hot North Fond du Lac team and suffered a 52 to 44 defeat. The boys in blue played a very good game, but they just couldn't stop North Fondy. This was the second time Fondy beat us. Watertown had another bad night and was trounced soundly by a good Port Washington team. This was the first game that Ken Nehring missed because of an appendectomy and the rest of the team just couldn't seem to realize that big boy wasn't in there gobbling up the rebounds. The defeat at the hands of a hot Oconomowoc team was by no means the fault of the Gos- lings. The difference was a kid named Wilkinson. Teamwork was the password the night of the Edgewood game. The whole team played a whale of a game to defeat Edgewood, 48 to 40. Don Fee was the hot shot of the night as he col- lected 21 points for individual honors, but the whole team should be given credit for playing a swell game. We played Wauwatosa. The Goslings played a very good game despite it all, but they just couldn't avoid the 54 to 37 defeat. TOURNAMENT The W. I. H. H. tournament at Columbus was a bitter disappointment to most of the Water- town fans this year, as the Goslings dropped two straight games to be eliminated from competi- tion. The boys just couldn't get their bearings the first night, they lost to Columbus 39 to 27. The second night they played a lot better game, but a last minute splurge gave Madison East a 49 to 36 victory. One of the few high pointers of the game was Iim Craine's free throw record. The burly forward made 9 straight for a tournament record of the most free throws made by one player in a single game. 56 THE H SQUHD CORCH , ..,,.,,,, ,,,,,,, H HRRIS GRHBOW MHNHGER ,,.,,,., ,,,,.

Hn elimination tournament instead of a round robin tournament was played. Hs far as stopping the Seniors, it failed, because they are champions, again, as they were in the two years previous. The Iuniors gave them a good battle in the championship game by leading through the whole game, till the Seniors tied them in the third quarter and then splurged ahead. The Seniors held the Iuniors in the fourth quarter to two points, winning by eight at the end of the game. The Sophomores beat the Freshmen by one point for consolation honors.

Many times a library assistant has answered that question. Each period one girl is assigned to the library. Her duties include the collecting of slips and alphabetizing them. Hfter a new shipment of books arrive. the assistants are busy shellack- ing, numbering, slipping and pocketing them. It is a taste of genuine library work. Plus gaining book knowledge the assistant librarian, has a chance to improve her personality working with people. This year's capable working girls are: Pauline Sterwaldt, Ioan Zimmer- mann, Elaine Maass, Ioan Buchert, Doris Ihde, Iim Richart, Hazel Saniter, Shir- ley Englebrecht, and Mary Goecke. The advisor is Miss Grothman. CHEERLEADERS We've got the coach, the team, the pep, the steam-and we've got the cheerleaders! The following feminine goslings helped to spurn our boys to victory this year whether on the field or court.

The singing of German folk songs, which all the students enjoy, is an important part of each meeting. Ht Christmas time, German records were played and Weihnachtslieder were sung. Some dolls were dressed in styles representing various costumes wom in many different sections of Germany. Topics on great men of literature, sci- ence, and art were discussed. Simple plays not only entertain them, but give them a chance to test their understanding of German.

'I'his probably comes from the fact that it is called by that name alone, and because the only publicity it gets is its tumbling during the halves of home basketball games. Hlthough the main purpose of the club is to pro- duce better tumblers, much time is spent on other sports such as touch foot- ball, basketball, and baseball. This year the club had an exceedingly large number of members, there- fore it was split into three groups. ln winter two of these tumble, while the third plays basketball. The three groups rotate at every meeting. During the warmer months the bi-weekly meetings alternate, outdoors and indoors. Most of the members look forward to tumbling every Thursday because it gives them a chance to practice and attempt new acrobatics. This practice gives the members quite an edge on the other students in the gym classes. Hlso, accomplishing some new flip or sommersault develops self-confidence. which every boy should have.

Hrthur Trebian Hdvisor... , s .. , s Mr. Ioseph gm cm This past year the Girls Club has divided into two distinct groups, which work together on certain main projects. The Sophomores are in one branch supervised by Miss Halbach, and the Iuniors and Seniors in the other, super- vised by Miss Griffith. Together these clubs perform beneficial services to make the name of W. H. S. one of pride. H few of the outstanding tasks that the Girls Club accomplished this year were to give assistance to the Red Cross in their drive to pack boxes for the poor during Christmas and the support which its members gave the Polio Drive. when they were called upon to do so. Because the Girls Club is quite active, its meetings are of the same type. Hmong the hits of the year was a joint meeting, at which attention was given to Chief Voigt during a discussion of juvenile delinquency. Hnother joint meet- ing was devoted to a Christmas program during which talented members of the club, together with outsiders, perform. Separate meetings introduced Miss Faber to the Sophomores, and Mrs. R. Ebert, to the Iuniors and Seniors. The former dealt in book reviews and the latter in art work. These two groups, together with the Boys Club, are invited to attend the annual Hi-Y and Tri Hi-Y Conferences. Delegates are chosen to appear at the conferences which consist of meetings where different topics are discussed a luncheon, entertainment. and a final banquet in the evening. Listed among the schedule was the meeting with the Boys Club to dis- cuss the likes and dislikes of issues prominent at the time. This last year drew a heated argument about long skirts and dark stockings prevalent in the pres- ent feminine wear. The meeting of most importance to all members came at the end of the school year. Both clubs attend this annual banquet, at 'which the officers of both clubs are honored.

Some of the displays have given the students a greater interest in activities with which they are not at all familiar.

We are members of the seventy-fifth high school graduating class. Our city provided the first free text books in its school. To quote from the text of the Centennial Pa eant: g The state superintendent expressed his opinion with regard to the matter as follows: 'Hfter a very careful inquiry, and much consideration, I arn entirely persuaded that the free text- book plan, under wise restrictions, is, for cities and villages at least, every way better than the old personal ownership plan. I commend it unreservedly to your city, and hope Watertown will have the honor and advantage of being the first city in Wisconsin to inaugurate the reform.' Watertown did have this honor, as it adopted the plan on Hpril 16, 1877. The adoption of this plan testifies to the fore-sightedness and alertness to new trends of the Board of Education of Watertown as early as l877. In the field of education we boast of another achievement in early history also recounted in the Centennial Pageant: Way back in 1849 in Germany, an attractive, intelligent girl by the name of Margaritha Meyer had the forthright courage to be interested in a rather revolutionary approach to pre-school education. Ht sixteen she decided to enter the school of Fredrfch Froebel at Hamburg. He had developed the the- ory of instructing small children through supervised play. Later this woman married Carl Schurz, an ardent revolutionary, a fugitive from the oppressive German system and a sincere believer in the demo- cratic way of life. Together they emigrated to the U. S. to search for the freedom they both sought, and in the summer of 1856 they came to Watertown where they settled down in what is now known as Karls- huegel. Mrs. Schurz's carefully nurtured enthusiasm for Froebel's cause now had an opportunity for individual expression and in the fall of that year she opened what is now authentically known as the first kindergarten in Hmerica. Her pioneer efforts in the field of education have been historically recog- nized and have been largely responsible for the growth and development of the kindergarten move- ment in this country, in which the Froebel Method is still largely in use. ln more recent years our school has been honored with two state basketball championships, sev- eral district and league athletic championships, and district and state honors in Forensics. H majority of our candidates have won top places in a state examination on the U. S. Constitu- tion. Recently a graduate received second national prize, of five hundred dollars, in an Elks' scholarship contest, based on outstanding leadership. Tradition and historical background assert themselves as we senior girls proudly attend the an- nual H.H.U.W. tea at Karlshuegel and when we take our visitors to see the Octagon House. Watertown High School was one of the first to offer Speech Correction and to receive a state a- ward for teaching Driver Education five yea.rs. Not the least of our honors is to have been instructed by a competent, interested faculty in a mod- ern, attactive building. ogfefd flfilne I' Y' Book Week Display THE Hpril 16, 1898 Dear Diary, Today a truly new source of interest has entered my life. This morn- ing, at long last Mother agreed that I could go to the theater, but it was to be understood that I go with Thomas Sutherland. Thomas Sutherland! How could anybody be so inhuman. He was hardly old enough! Hs I remembered last summer he was that pest who came over to eat Libby's fancy cakes and crul- lers and stayed only until they were gone. Hadn't I always dreamed of a smooth Broadway escort, wearing a high hat, a light silk waistcoat with a heavy watch-chain and oh-just lots of fur. But at the moment I knew my chances for such a person were quite far distant. It would have to be Thomas if I were to go and I just had to ...,.,.. just think, to see Wilson Barrett, the brilliant Eng- lish actor who was touring Hmerica. Why, I'd be the envy of every girl in the neighborhood. Hll moming I gladly felt the torture of crimping-pins so I wouldn't have to braid my hair for the occasion. Hround seven o'clock Grandmother Van Kortlandt came up and with her long, deft fingers she slid the soft, silk dress over my head. Hs the time slipped by, I only hoped that Thomas would re- member to wear his peg-tops and his patent-leather boots. Hnd oh! if he would only try not to be so awkward. When he arrived it was almost eight. He looked so tall in his black suit and high, white collar: he might have been a man of twenty-one. He ap- proached me in a grown-up manner. His face was unusually serious. H tide of warmth swept through me, loosening queer, tight places. I began to smile, not the usual grin I flash at him, but a new kind of smile. The ruffles of my skirt danced as we walked out and it gave me that butterfly feeling that I liked. Nothing, I know, will ever be quite the same. There was Thomas and the way he looked at me. Hnd there was my sudden disinterest in an English actor. Dear Diary, don't you think it's perfectly lovely to be grown-up? Mary Schatz 49 First Prize Hpril 4, 1948 Dear Diary, Today I had quite an unusual experience. Hs I was standing on a street comer this afternoon, a middle--aged man shouted to me from across the street. Hey, you, over there in the jeans and bobby sox. Yes, you-come here! How would you like to go back with. me about fifty years to the 'Gay Nineties'? How was the period in history when the genteel little ladies wore long, hoop skirts and bustles-the 'New Look' to you: when the carriages drawn by stately look- ing horses clattered down the streets: and the little old lamplighter would wan- der from lamp to lamp, lighting the way. He sighed as he saw a young couple strolling toward the park-then, suddenly, he smiled, seeing a scrupulous chap- erone, carefully watching every move they tried to make. But they did have a bit of excitement in those days, too. Hs we span the map, we notice a colorful little spot in New York, known as the Bowery. Hh, yes-the Bowery, the place where men were men. But let us have a look at this gay little district. Hs we meander down the lane, we come upon an exceptionally noisy little cafe--guns roaring, music t?l blaring, people shout- ing, and, oh my, someone just came flying through those swinging doors! Who knows-it could have been grandpa! Well Little Miss Bobby Sox, we must be on our way--but if you think you kids have all the fun, just think of grandma. Goodbye, now . Hnd the man was gone! Rose Oestreich 49 Second Prize HE ORBIT 99 luly 8, 1895 Dear Diary, Today Ieff and I are on our annual visit to Uncle Clem, who owns a har- ness shop on the outskirts of Milwaukee. Early this moming, four H. M. to be exact, Ieff hitched Hmose and Matilda to our surrey and after locking up the house we started our Iourney of the Year. Paying our toll of one gold piece, we are now rolling along the new- tangled Watertown Plank Road. Hs we go, we can't help remarking how smooth the logs are and what work it must have taken to make the road. Ixonia flew by at six o'clock and now the ride is becoming boring. To pass the time I begin counting the planks as we roll over them. Hs my head is aching, I give up counting. I remembered I had brought a copy of Harper's Weekly with my lug- gage, so soon I'm engrossed in an article called Styles of l898. Say, this seat is getting harder the longer we ride and the road seems to be bumpier. Maybe it only seems that way. Ieff tells me that we should hit Pewaukee by noon, if we hurry. Boy, did we make time! Pewaukee at last! Look at those hell-divers on the lake. They look like toy ducks on a giant ocean. We stop off at Schnickle's Inn for our noon meal and rest. When it is time to leave Ieff asks me to drive and we are off. Now we are on our last leg of the trip. Milwaukee, here we come! We arrive with our spines out of place, a good headache, and tired: but we are in good spirits. Hren't we lucky to have such a fine road as the Water- town Plank Road? Bill Trachte 49 Third Prize May 29, 1898 Dear Diary, Today I started out on a trip to Florida on my horse. Hfter I rode thirty miles, the horse died of exhaustion. Then I walked fifteen miles to the next city. Well, there were no horses to be bought, but there was a gadget there with two wheels and a frame-also a seat and a pair of handle bars. They call that gadget a bicycle. Well, I got on and then tried to ride it. First, I fell and cut my finger: then I tried again, but this time I fell in the mud with my best riding pants on. Oh, were they some riding pants, blue with pink stripes! I also wore red socks, black boots, and a green shirt. I got mad and mounted the bike and paddled for one and a half hours. Then came more bad luck. The front wheel fell off and so did I. I walked until I got a ride with a man who had a horse and a wagon. It was hard riding, but it was better than walk- ing. In the next town I finally bought a horseless carriage and tried to start it but I couldn't, so the salesman did it for me and I was Florida bound. But, dear diary, here I am tonight, home, and not in Florida. The horseless car- riage got started in the wrong direction and I couldn't stop it. We passed my home town wide open, going ten miles an hour, but down two blocks it stopped. I wondered why ...,..,, no gas, no money, no horse, no bike, no shoes. What have I got to show for this Hdventure? Well, I nev- er wanted to go to Florida anyway. Kenneth Kropf 49 I l 10 THE Iune l'l, 1888 Dear Diary, Soft moonlight is coming in through my bedroom window, and silver beams are tripping the light fantastic on the carpet. Twelve years ago was just such a night. I was telling the moon to hur- ry to bed and cover up with at fleecy cloud. I was in a big hurry to begin my first day of school. Let's see--I had on a pink chiffon dress tied with a heaven- ly blue sash, and a hair bow to match. White cotton stockings and black patent leather shoes completed my costume. I can remember standing in front of the big mirror in the hall, picturing myself a beautiful sorceress bewitching everybody with my looks. It was awful to come back to earth, to see the turrets and walls fall away from my castle in the air. For you see, the girl across from me, Hgnes, had every boy up to third grade looking at her. Twelve short years suddenly ended with graduation. Hank gave me a make-up mirror with powder in the back of it. fl like powder much better than comstarch.l He told me I was the best looking girl in the graduating class. I guess I blushed when he said that. I can see the North Star now. It's old, but still bright and shiny. It will be my star to guide me. I like to think maybe Cleopatra or Marie Hntoinette turned to the same star when they needed solace. Maybe they saw the same special twinkle, too. Who knows? Until tomorrow, goodnight dear diary. Herbert Goetsch 48 Nov. 3, 1895 Dear Diary, Today was a big day for me. I played my first game of college foot- ball. We really knocked that Yale team to pieces. We tore them limb from limb. The score was 56 to 6, so you can see why I feel the way I do. There were a few important events in the game. I-can remember big lim Hopenstien tripping and falling on the one yard line after he had just made a nice 96 yard run. Big Iohn Bowley got his leg broken today. He was the best center we had on the team. They carried him off the field on a stretch- er. The doctor says it isn't a very bad fracture. Hfter the game there was a dance. I went down-town to get my girl friend and went to the dance. Her name is Lydia and is she a peach. What a babe! When you're dancing with her, she floats like a feather. Hfter the dance we went down-town and had an ice cream cone. Then we went home. Tonight was the first night I kissed her goodnight. She seemed to like me and I think I'm going to like her. Today sure was my lucky day! Otis Beyer 49 JU I Mx WSW 102 THEORBIT W. H. S. MHGHZINE RHCK LIFE- Hsa Peterson, Hank Engelbrecht, and Martin Schmidt, f Say Hank, hope we won't be here for 'life'.
