The home experience course sponsored by the federal government has been added; its purpose, to help the pupil utilize personal and home resources to the greatest advantage.

With the wor-time demand for skilled labor, these courses presented to the boys are really worth something. After a taste of woodworking, drawing, general metal, and general mechanics in Junior High, the freshman boys may take a year or more of ad- vanced mechanics and machine shop. Those who like woodworking may take the cabinet making class. Another popular course is architectural drawing which enables the boys to construct, read, and interpret architectural blueprints.

Music hath charms . . . provided by the music department, con- ducted by the music department, and appreciated by us. The aim of this group is to teach the students an appreciation of music. Boys' Glee Club, Girls' Glee Club, Junior A Cappelio, and Double Quortette are the nucleus of the Senior A Coppella, and it is within these groups that students become qualified for this later activity. Beginning strings make up a feeder group for the senior orchestra, and symphony numbers within their range clutter their portfolios. The beginning bond vigorously trains its members to qualify for the senior bond. Art posters are deemed second to radio in the business end of war propaganda. Our own art department has given, since the beginning of the war, approximately 6500 hours for the war effort alone. Among the activities of the advanced classes is the making of patriotic posters. Lining the wall in the lower corridor in the senior high this year were exhibits of posters mode. Numerous signs were painted for the Red Cross, RotioningA Board, and Swap Center. The senior high's honor roll plaque and a U. S. 0. sign were products of their making. At Christmastime the making of the traditional gifts was discon- tinued in order to conserve valuable materials. Menu covers for men aboard ship for Christmas dinners were made. Wallpaper books discarded by downtown stores are being used by the artists whenever possible, to save paper. ZELMA MONLUX, B. E.

Another main item in the program this year was milk testing. The boys tested 50 herds, 1000 cows in all. John Simon, a senior, received the Kiwanis award for the outstanding farm program. When special help is needed, these angels of mercy give their aid. Miss Moran and Mrs. Hegg are two such helpers. They teach English and History in the Junior High School. One of their most important activities is the core-curriculum, which is a combination of Social Science and English, taught in the seventh grade.

Our coaches faced Cl huge problem at the beginning of the year's activities as they at- tempted to mold a starting eleven. Of the sixty fellows who reported for first practice, only four were IettermeneBeitz, Price, Tenke, and Vennes. But what the squad locked in ex- perience, they made up for in enthusiasm and willingness to learn. Our new coach, Bill Koenig, introduced the single-wing for- mation, a type of offense new to the Woukesho squad. Coach Koenig, who hails from Medford, was assisted by Mr. Soubert, Mr. Turner, and three alumni, Ralph Greb, Charlie Joy, and Len Meolo. The '43 Blockshirt team opened the season's campaign by trouncing Boys' Tech to the tune of 19-7. The line led by Tenke did on exceptional job of blocking and tackling while Henderson, Claude and Killian Morkin, and Vennes did some nice boll carrying. Trick play of the game was a forward pass from C. Morkin t0 Litt who lateroled to Vennes, netting A grin from the Coachecould mean we're ahead. 0 gain of 30 yards.

Downed in its first conference game against West Aliis Central, the Cards nevertheless displayed that old do or die spirit and fought until the final gun sounded. The Bulldogs rolled over Woukesho's ground and ass defense winnin , e '-' ockshirts were handed their second straight con- ferece defeat by Shorewood who not only come out ahead 29 poi ts but held the Cards scoreless as well. Though Price's fine punting tried to keep Shorewood in their own territory, the strong and powerful line play of the Greyhounds was too much for the Waukesho gridders whose spirit was high but their luck low. Unable to break this losing iinx, Woukesho came out on the little end of o 8-2 score against Wouwotosc's Red Raiders. The Blackshirts' only score come from an automatic safety mode in the first half when Price blocked a 'Tosa punt causing it to land in the end zone. Waukesho held this two point lead until the final quarter when 'Tosa scored a safety and a lone touchdown to bring the score 8-2. Traveling to West Milwaukee with the odds against them, the Blockshirts opened a sparkling offense on the very first play. Trailing at the end of the half 13-7 the Mustangs launched a series of passes to again tie the score. From there on, it was the 'Blackshirts who controlled the game. The forward wall of the Woukesha team was brilliant in both offense and defense. Page Twenty-m'ne 7M Wm 14a 9W Goerke, $0550 The Cords really hit their stride when they met Whitefish y Boy and turned them back 7-0. Claude Morkin mode the i Cords' only tally while a smoothly functioning Blackshirt line held off several desperate last minute scoring threats of the Boys. Inspired by the victory over Whitefish Bay, the local grid- ders come through to defeat Cudahy 25-6 in the homecoming tilt. The Cords' aerial attack was dazzling. Vennes threw four touchdown passes to right end Price for a total of 65 yards. When the timekeeper sounded the final gun, Wou- kesha was again on the march. Woukesha finished sixth m the conference with three losses, two victories, and one tie game. Joe Tenke was elected' guard on the AlI-Suburbon first team for the second year. Price, Beitz, and Jacoby were chosen on the second team. Letters were awarded to Fay, Price, llling, Jocoby, Tenke, Pugh, Jones, Vennes, Killian Morkin, all seniors, and to Beitz, Litt, Hender- son, Everett, juniors, and Claude Morkin, sophomore.

Acting as a clearing house for student problems, the council had many lively sessions in which Bill Brolick as president had to top for order frequently. Some of their pet projects this year were Homecoming with its now famous slogan Chew Cud- o-hoy, sponsoring the Guidance Commission's school morale program, and consideration of the honor study hall problem. Membership in the council is by homerooms along with chairmen .of the many commis- sions. With Doc Thomas to keep things straight, Bill was assisted by Peggy Jo Harter, John Koehler, Bill Peterson, and Bob Breese, student officers. JUNIOR COUNCIL Here's a group of twenty-seven Junior High students who are getting practical experience in how a government operates. As the Junior Student Council, they represent the 7th, 8th, and 9th grades and do a pro- fessional job on student activities in the Lincoln and Edison buildings. They believe that good school citizens should be interested in the appearance of their school and' so have assumed responsibility for the bulletin boards. Jock Hogstrom is the student president with Tom Anderson, Bob Heglund and Dolly Tons completing the officer corps. Miss Bray and Miss Hanson as faculty advisers find that the younger they ore, the more enthusiastic they are. VICTORY COUNCIL The busiest corner in school is the Red Cross Workshop. Sponsored by the Victory Council, students have collectedicross-word puzzles, knit squares for afghons, and done many other things for wounded service men in hos- pitals. To secure materials for the workshop a contest was held among the homerooms and points giv- en on articles brought in iwith occasionally a double-point doyi. Home Room 210 led the field. The workshop is only one of the activities of the Vic- tory Council. Under Miss Wulf- ing's watchful eyes, this new wor-time creation has kept up the honor roll, sent 130 Card- inal Stars each week to boys in the service, and took charge of the Russian Christmas gift boxes. These Victory Volt- agers are composed of repre- sentatives from clubs and homerooms. If one Bob isn't in charge, another is: Bob Kostuck and Bob llling ore president and vice- r e s i d e n t respectivel . It all started with cross- p y word puzzles 'til the Red Jean Petry reads the minutes, Cross Workship hit the mark of I d B tt Oh h Id th 5000.

Page Thirty-six HI-Y AND GIRL RESERVES Waukesho has really hit the map since the opening of the Cardinal Attic. This recreational center has proved to be the solution of the problem of where to go and what to do. Some of the younger set have worn holes in their precious shoes from dancing to the latest tunes from the juke box. Mr. Reusch, Mrs. Brisk and her predecessor, Mrs. Rolstod, keep a watchful eye over all the affairs as do Jone Venne and Bob Schuett, student chairmen. The Attic is only one of the projects of the Hi- Y, for they also promote the soles of war stamps and bonds and are extremely proud of their record. Every girl knows what a Hi-Y pin stands for-a man. ll Not to be outdone by the Stronger Sex, the girls do their part in running the Attic. From the Wahi- gires to the 7th grade, the Girl Reserve groups are active in Red Cross work. They have an eye out for a good time too. Attic dances have become part of our pattern of fun.

Why not, after seeing that whizz of a team take seven teams in three weeks reaching for the State Cham- pionship title, and what's more, getting it? Yes, the W. H. S. basketball team leads the Wisconsin Inter- scholastic Athletic Association. To begin the 1943-44 season, the Cards started with six returning Iettermen: Price, Miller, Fay, Ryan, Woyahn, and llling. Another advantage was that all of the first team were six feet tall. The cards started against Racine Horlick, who had a comparatively weak team, and easily beat them 42-17. Price made 18 points. The first con- ference game was against South Milwaukee who lost 37-14. llling and Price led the scoring with 11 and 10 points re- spectively. West Allis Central was the next contest. The Bulldogs were handicapped by a lack of experienced players. The Cards won the third straight game 25-8. During Christmas vacation the Blackshirts continued winning their games downing Racine Park twice 28-8 and 26-13. White- fish Bay lost a high scoring contest 50-26. This made a total of six wins and no defeats with an average score of 34.7 points to 14.5 for the opponents Page Fifty . .1 :1: .f'. r Q7 I . 1 r :5 fr, Jt f; . V? i 1 c w; 'ywyrj 35$ 32V!- per game. The Cards then ran up against Shorewood and Wauwatosa on successive nights. Both games proved dis- astrous,.iosing the games by 3 points, 16-14 and 26-29. These were the first defeats suffered by the Shirts in 17 starts. Not bad! The Cards took it out on Cudahy the next week to the tune of 59-25, the highest score in the conference this year. The next two Blackshirt victims were West Milwau- kee and West Allis HaIe-trouncing West Milwaukee 52-53 and West Allis 38-27. These two games raised the Shirts average scoring at 36.6 points per game toi. 19.3 points for the opponents. By far the most thrilling game of the season was the 22-21 defeat of Tosa's Red Raiders on the home floor. In the last two games of the Suburban season the Shirts beat West Allis Central 35-19 and Whitefish Bay 31-20. This put the Cards in second place in the Suburban Conference, ending with 10 wins, two defeats and one of the finest records for offensive and defensive play in the , league.

Our Modrigols, exceptionally good singers from the A Coppello who are greatly interested in music, song at P. T. A. meetings as well as at other meetings where small groups were desired. Besides practicing with the regular choir, the Modrigals had two private sessions each week with Miss Monlux. A CAPPELLA CHOIR Music by transcription is the latest feat attempted by the Senior A Coppeilo choir. The assemblies heard the results with pleasure during the February patriotic assemblies. A recording of Rex Vernon's win- ning Wor Bond song was also made for community use during the Fourth Wor Loon drive. The traditional chorol Christmas program, presented by the choir in their black and white robes, was made even lovelier by the impressive Adeste Fideles processionol and Darwin Dennis' solo of The Birthday of a King. Town groups are always anxious to have our choir appear on their programs and Miss Monlux and the choir are equally happy to oblige.

This was the debate question faced by Mr. Schwann and his thirty orators. If you can't convince Ma and Po then you shouldn't go out for debate. De- baters have to be able to convince you they're right. This means giving the books in the library a real work- out. They also have to be able to organize their facts to present for discussion. Little traveling was done this year, but a few went to Marquette to participate in the League of Nations as- sembly. Bill Peterson and Jack Vye represented the countries of Austria and Czechoslovakia. The repre- sentatives imagined they were present at a peace con- ference held after the war in Geneva, Switzerland. Their problem was how to preserve a permanent peace. Although the debate squad didn't enter in any in- terscholastic debate contests the pennants won in past years would make a fine display.

Now for a bit about sports which were played during the course of the year. Archery returned again after a two years absence. As for hockey the girls know what it's all about. The two top favorites were volleyball and basketball. There were eight teams and their leaders: C. Poetch, S. Wilcox, J. Breidenbach, F. Mariani, L. Dornbrak, D. Werch, M. Schoil, E. Bowe.

The club's officers are: president, Mary Price; vice-president, Nova Belle Chapman; secretary, Hcpe Hollister. A glorious water show was presented in April. The Dolphin Cruiser took you on a trip around the world stopping at various countries. Anchors Aweigh was the opening number. Ireland was the next stop and a couple swim was presented there. Next came a Spanish number; thence to Italy for a waltz. A diving exhibition highlighted the intermission. Continuing again they traveled to Hawaii for an original Hawaiian number, They stopped off at South America for a La Congo and home again. Student directors were: Ella Hagstrom, Lucille Clemons, Lynn Morris, Eva Harder, Mary Price, Hope Hollister, Nova Belle Chapman, Jo Ann Eichelberger. Decorations for the show were made by lone Jorgenson and the dialogue for it came from the clever pen of Mary Harris.

A. should investigate the affairs of the Megaphone staff, for not only did they burn the midnight oil, but the section editors kept their staffs running hither and thither wearing out shoes, another 0. P. A. problem. Lillian Johnson, editor, no sooner got one page layout done than she had to change it, and acted as general handyman as the editorial staff carried out their harum-scarum pryings. Elaine Katzenboch spied into teachers' lives. Rex Vernon and Dick Sotherland snapped those off-moment pics that you can groan over now. If Helen Martin dashes off a rhyme in answer to a question, ignore it. She did the classes. Bev Moore scratched her then-greying hair, as she tried to find good first lines about organizations. Shaking heads and sort-of-apologetic smiles accompanied the time-after-time rejections of Miss Kline and Mrs. Keeling, advisers. Special delivery man was Paul Trushinski, riding his bike from the prnters to the hi skool and back, while his mind busily wrote the sports copy. Now the Meg staff heaves sighs as they rediscover there are such things as flowers, people, sleep and living. Top row, left to right: Kennedy, Matyas, Michael, Thiel, Vernon.

It is presentd to the newly appointed members at an unforgettable, impressive candle- light service. Engraved on it are the letters L. S. S. C., which mean the wearer has been voted on and passed on leadership, scholarship, service, and character by the teachers and previously elected members of the Honor Society. Miss Fordy handles all the Society's business getting the pins, figuring the promising members, and planning the activities for the group. Genivieve Nelson conducts the meetings tos presidentt, and Peggy Jo Harter, takes notes tos secretoryJ A lone flaming torch symbolizing the guiding light to lead others in high attainments is borne by the Junior Honor Society members. Respect should be high for these students chosen by a committee of teachers for they must possess scholarship, leadership, loyalty, honesty, and fellowship, plus honor points gained by extro-curriculor activities.
