SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Isn't it kind of fun to recollect all the things that have happened to us in our four years here? Sort of hard and embarrassing to think about those frosh daysl fThe less said the betterll We were about the greenest, most confused, and least inconspicuous class that had ever startled the faculty at W.H.S., I guess. Go-Hawk Town was one maze of confusing halls after another, all leading to the wrong room. Remember? lNow we could find our way around blindfo1ded.l Our Frosh year is still more or less a confusion to me - I remember almost nothing about that awe-ful year except Rose Kepler's rendition of The Little Fishies - I'll never forget thatl Pete Koch, our present Cassanova, was just another chubby fellow from a farm and the inimitable Soup Heist was just another of the Heist boys. Ah, but then we became Sophomoresl We were no longer confused, indeed, we felt ourselves extremely smoothl That was the year Dot Becker joined our merry throng. We really started doing stuff 'n things then. There was Milly Bartlett, our wonderful soprano, and many of our gals were drum majorettes. Then almost the entire golf team was sophomores and it was a mighty good team, tool That was the first year our marching band got one in the National. Even though Jeep Boedecker fell down and sprained his ankle, we marched on to victory! But as Juniors we really came into our own. Remember the Carnival - how could we forget it? Spending the entire Saturday putting up booths and rehearsing the side show, etc. I won't ever forget that side show, will you? - especially that barber shop quartettel And how we all escorted Mr. Cogswell down to the bank in the wee hours on Saturday morning. Then there was the Junior-Senior Banquet. I still see stars every time I close my eyes and I probably shall for the rest of my life - all the cutting and pasting silver stars on blue streamers. The best part came when the two oh-so-cynical seniors told us it was the best everl And then last summer, one of the saddest things that ever happened to this class - Kurt's death. We've all missed him so much this yearl He was always the life of the party! Remember last fall how we argued and bickered about the annual? They were fun, though, all those debatesl Next came the work on the annual this year and finally the thrill of having the last copy go off to the publisher. Remember all those Saturday morning confabs when we got such a kick out of some of the features. And now we're through. Commencement's coming up, and high school is over for us. Daily as you go down the halls, you hear some one say, How will they ever get along without us? Strangely enough, they will, they always do, but I honestly don't see how 1- I CAN YOU Paul Koch not mouthing off in any class Art Zahn beating the tardy bell by more than 3 seconds Dorothy Becker not in a hurry Eleanor Montgomery without gum Myrt Strotman not flirting Mildred Bartlett without 7-up Grazian without her knitting Helen Simmons stepping out Harm twins not together The cheerleaders getting to class on time Ed Ford not bragging Penny Swenson without make-up Jim Strotman wearing rubber heels The annual staff getting anything done - especially featuresll Verla Schoof not arguing herself clear IMAGINE Shirley Chandler not sitting beside a boy in speech class Hazel Knepper without a stack of library books Orville Oltrogge playing the piccolo Kasemeier not laughing at his own iokes Phyllis Holley not being jealous Davie Fangmeier without a nick-name Hanna Knappe not lugging a torch Charles Uecker thinking himself wrong Stieger and Shirmer quiet at basketball games Donald Baker not having trouble with his love life Kam not teasing someone Corrine Luloff without half socks Miss Hamil without her blue slips. -16..
