Philip Pick, Richard Driessel, and Dan Pick were elected to pilot the class as president, vice-president, and secretary, respectively. From the beginning it was evident that this was no ordinary class. in all forms of sport and extra-curricular ac- tivities, the freshmen were very well repre- sented. Ruth Wiskirchen was in the final declamatory eliminations, and lVlary Jane Bucklin won a role in The Wonder Hat , a contest play, which won first place in the Little Ten. More accustomed to the new school life, the class of '34 as sophomores came steadily to the front. Resolving to keep up the pre- cedent established while freshmen, the fol- lowing officers were elected as commanders: Robert Clark, president, Richard Driessel, vice-presidentg Burghard Heindl, secretary. That fall with their Pirate Ship float the class captured the Homecoming Trophy. ln athletics, John Puestow, James Rauen, and Arthur Heil were awarded letters for foot- ball, John Puestow also received one for basketball. The sophomore girls distin- guished themselves in intramurals by win- ning the baseball, basketball, and track championships. ln forensics they were also well represented, for Ruth Wiskirchen took first place in the District Declamatory Con- test, and Burghard Heindl was in the final oratory eliminations. Mary jane Bucklin rep- resented the class on the debate team. The junior yearl Here an excellent record was made in all lines of endeavor. The class officers elected to uphold the traditions of this illustrious class were the following: Earl Schloemer, presidentg Harold Schowalter, Vice-president, Burgharcl I-Ieindl, secretary- treasurer. The big event of this year was the Prom , led by the king, Earl Schloemer, and his queen, Florence Present. In spite of the depression, it was a big success and took place in the midst of a Japanese setting of cherry blossoms, gaily colored lanterns, and other oriental decorations. Again the class was prominent in all kinds of curricular and extra-curricular activities. ln athletics three of the five Pick trophies Went to junior boys. John Puestow, Earl Berger, Dan Pick, james Rauen, Thomas Kimla, Lee Kissinger, and Eddie Wiskirchen earned letters in football. Among the juniors receiving letters for bas- ketball were Eddie Wiskirchen, John Pues- ,l4' tow, and Dan Pick. The baseball high lights were Eddie Wiskirchen, Earl Berger, Ells- worth Harth, Robert Pick, and Adrian Neu- bauer. Dan Pick, Philip Pick, Lee Kissinger, John Puestow, Robert Puestow, Harold Schowalter, and Elmer Kannenberg received letters in track. It was due to their outstand- ing work that West Bend won first place in the Little Ten Conference. All local forensic contests were won by the juniors. Kathleen Kullmann and Bernice Naumann were in the final eliminations in de- clamatory, with Philip Pick and Burghard Heindl upholding honors for the boys in oratory. Mary Jane Bucklin did excellent work in extemporaneous speaking and de- bates. The junior girls again captured the basket- ball championship for the second successive year. Blanche Ritger, Dolores Lodes, and Jane Walter were G. A. A. officials. john Puestow, Richard Driessel, and Alice Gonring were elected officers for the years I 933-34. The last year the following seniors quali- fied for positions on the football squad: Captain Lee Kissinger, Martin Braasch, Dan Pick, Art Heil, Willis Haurnschild, Eddie Wiskirchen, Fred Schultz, Earl Berger, John Puestow, Robert Puestow, and Robert Pick, basketball: Captain john Puestow, Robert Puestow, Lee Kissinger, Eugene Gonring, Robert Pick, Eddie Wiskirchen, and Ells- worth l-larth: track: Philip Pick, Dan Pick, Robert Puestow, john Puestow, Elmer Kan- nenberg, Lee Kissinger, and Harold Scho- walter. The business and equipment man- agers were Elmer Kannenberg and Webster Weiss. The debaters this year were Kathleen Kullmann, Mary Jane Bucklin, and Burg- hard Heincll. Kathleen Kullmann also went to the finals in declamatory. The orators were Philip Pick, john Klumb, and Burghard Heindl. Music was just another one of their accomplishments, and they were well repre- sented in the glee clubs, orchestra and band. Milton Suckow, Edward Hicks, and Richard 'Driessel were officers of the musical organi- zations. For the third successive year, the girls won the basketball championship. lm- portant positions on the Dust Pan Staff were held by john Klumb, Philip Pick, and Kathleen Kullmann. There are ninety seniors graduating this year, all of whom have upheld a high stand- ard of work during their high school terms. They should be well prepared to pursue their particular careers, whatever they may be. Kathryn Lang Evelyn Weckmueller LEARL BERGER Spike Football 3, 43 Baseball 2, 3, 43 Bend Staff 43 S. A.

Gfk 22175 1592, WZ, 072, 5015 l Juniors A survey of prominent juniors and activities! Where would I get my material? A huge book on the shelf caught my eye. Who's Who, of course! I strug- gled and pulled at the monstrous Volume to get it in as convenient a position as possible. Why do we have to have assign- ments like this? I mumbled as I listlessly turned the first few intro- ductory pages. In a half-hearted manner I opened the book to the first page of activities. You can im- agine my surprise and delight in finding the juniors mentioned in al- most every activityl Enthusiastically I checked each one as I spied it. The result looked something like this: Band-The band contained many faithful junior members. Richard I-Ieidner was one of the officers of the Junior Musicians' Club. Basketball - Harold Warnkey, Mathew Gonring, and Wilford Pot- ter did their part in securing second place for West Bend in the Little Ten. Debates--The junior representa- tives on the team were Ruth Regner and Stephen O'lVleara. Olga Plisch- ounig and Richard I-leidner were al- ternates. Declamatory--Betty Goeden and Marita Yahr participated in the final school declamatory contest, and Junior Girls Top Row: V. Ziegler, L. Boelcer, B. Goeden, B. Walter, B. Diels, A. Carlsen, A.

Extemporaneous Reading-Betty Goeden won the Little Ten cham- pionship in extemporaneous reading. Football--Those receiving W. B. awards included Roger O'Meara, Kurt Kuehlthau, Harold Warnkey, Mark O'Meara, Paul Bruhy, and Wilford Potter. Glee Club-Many juniors partici- pated in the Music Festival with Mayville. Oratory-Mark O'Meara was -a- mong the orators selected in the school contest. Orchestras-Both the popular and and symphony orchestras had active junior members. 1935 Publications-The following jun- iors were included on the Dust Pan staff: Ruth Held, Frieda Kaehny, Betty Goeden, Betty Walter, and Marita Yahr. Grace I-lembel was awarded first place in the Scholasticis National Short Story Contest. l closed the book with a sigh of reluctance but surely not disappoint- ment. lt had been a most interesting survey, one which any class would be proud to claim.

Kohl. sophomores The time was 2069, and I was wandering through the ruins of the old West Bend High School. As I progressed through the decayed old building, l finally stumbled over a mass of sere yellowish papers. Upon looking through them, I came to one entitled The Activities of the Soph- omore Class of I933-34. The arti- cle attracted my attention, and I at once decided to read it. The first paragraph included the sophomore members on the football squad. I noticed that Otto Laufer, Erwin Werner, Richard Lonergan, I-Ierbert Fuge, and Paul Otto were among the boys. I started, Say! I bet that Charley Otto who lives down on Seventh Avenue is probably a great, great, great, great grandchild of this fellow about whom I am read- ing. With a chuckle I continued reading. In the B Basketball team, Herbert Hackbarth, George Wein- ert, Otto Laufer, and Paul Otto were the sophomore representatives in I934. I also noted a sentence re- ferring to the girls, which stated that they won second place in the basket- ball and baseball tournaments. I paused a moment to glance at the ruins about me and to think of all the boys and girls, who over ra hun- dred years ago, worked and played in this building. The sophomores on the Student Sophomore Girls Top Row: M. Schacht, A. Cechvala, M. Lenz, V. Remmel, D. Curly, A. Puestow, M. Kuehn, C. Langenbach, A. Bast, P. Kraemer, F. Spafeth, K. Schmidt. L.

Myrtle Smith and Leander Willkomm help- ed plan the social events for the year. The sophomores had a fine repre- sentation in the glee clubs, band, orchestras, and the dramatic club. ln the final declamatory contest we find that two sophomore girls were contestantsg namely, Myrtle Smith and Joyce Woog. Harlan Da- luge participated in the final oratori- cal contest, and Alice Bast was on the debate team. Paul Freehauf, Herbert l-lackbarth, George Kircher, and Suzanne Pick were among the sophs on the Dust Pan staff. l paused again, trying to imagine what all these boys and girls looked like and how they acted when they 1936 were sophomores. My imagination failed me, and l continued to read: The baseball and track teams have not been picked. l was sorry not to find this information. Behold! l had reached the end of the article. After folding and putting the paper back into the pack, l got up and wandered on, still thinking about those sophomores of long ago and the numerous activities in which they took part.

FI'CSl'ImCh lt is I934 at the World's Fair, and President Roosevelt has just arrived. As he walks down the Avenue of Flags, he meets a freshman from the West Bend High School. How do you do, Mr. President. l am a representative from West Bend High School and would like to show you the many activities and accomplishments of the freshmen. I should be very pleased to go with you. It seems l know several people from there and would like to see their work. Soon both are standing before a large building with Athletic Activi- ties written in huge letters over the doorway. Who are the boys that are stand- ing near that football field? the President asks. Oh, those are the boys that have gone out for intramural football. Let me see. That first boy is Bob Berger, and next to him are Walter Dick- mann, Jerome Winn, Sylvester Schlosser, and Elmer Puestow. Be- yond are some of the basketball players. The small fellow is Marvin Zarling, and on down the line are Robert Berger, Elmer Puestow, Jer- ome Winn, I-larry Marshall, and Oliver Endlich. l..et's go on a little farther, and l will show you one per- son of whom we have a right to be proud. See the girl over there? That is Betty Krieger, the girl ping-pong champion. Freshman Girls Top Row: H. Erler, J. Enright, L. Berres, B. Haug. M. Schmidt, A. Endlich, M. Freehauf, O. Frank, P.

Over there talking to that group of teachers are the girls who went out for declamatory: Jeanne Mueller, Evelyn Thoma, Vivian Gales, Valet- ta Braasch, Mary Ann Kortendick, Betty Krieger, Ann Stoffel, Virginia Blank, Florence Appenzeller, June Karsten, Mercia Pfenning, and Patty O'Meara. June Karsten and Patty O'Meara were two of the four girls 'chosen to represent the school in de- clamatory. Mercia Pfenning and Betty jane Rose tried out for de- bates, and We also had some boys out for oratory. 'iwould you care to see the Hall of Entertainment? It is very inter- esting, and the class of '37 is well represented. Here is the Little Red 1937 Cup that we Won for having the best Hoat in the Homecoming Parade. We were all very proud when Eddie Lang, our class president, received it before the assembly. We also have many members in W. B. Troupers, several of whom have had parts in plays. Well, l think your class has a right to be proud of itself, and l hope you keep up the good work, were the words of praise the Presi- dent bestowed before leaving. We're going to try! answered the freshman. -Patty O'Meara Freshman Boys Top Row: E. Taylor, A. Hembel, A. Koch, L. Graff. J. Hembel, G. Fellenz, J. Clark, R. Berger, H. Kruepke, W. Johann, L.

Fifty candidates dusted off their old football shoes, got into their suits, and went through some limbering-up ex- ercises on the first day of practice. Among these were ten lettermen who had been developed by lVlr. Runkel and had acquired one or two years of experience on the first team. They are Capt. Leroy Kissinger, John Puestow, Harold Warnkey, Kurt Kuehlthau, Dan Pick, Roger O'lVleara, Tom Kim- la, Earl Berger, Ed. Wiskirchen, and Art 4l'leil. lVlr. Pacetti introduced the Spears system which proved very ef- fective. l-le built up a powerful line by moving Kissinger from fullback to tackle. With Warnkey and Kuehlthau on the ends, R. O'lVleara and Kissing- er at tackle, Kimla, Haumschild, and Bruhy at guard, and Pick at the pivot position, there was only one non-let- terman, Bruhy, in the line. Art Heil, a stocky, powerful line plunger, took Kissinger's place at fullback, John Puestow, Ed. Wiskirchen, and Earl Berger were the regular half-backs, and Mark O'lVleara, one of the most effective blockers West Bend has ever had, filled the quarter back position. West Bend 46, Plymouth 6 The team got off to a good start in the I933 season by whipping Ply- mouth in a one-sided game. The line showed up very well, and opened up big holes for running plays. lwest Bend tried few passes and used mostly pow- er plays. Coach Pacetti had an excel- lent opportunity to size up his material. l-le played almost every man on the squad. Puestow scored three touch- downs, and Heil, Warnkey, Wiskirch- en, and Laufer scored one each. West Bend 24, Waupun 0 ' The Red and Xvhite had no trouble in winning their first conference game when they took on Waupun. Berger made many long gains to put the ball in scoring position, totaling l I0 yards .ll K Q . f , . Football Squad Top Row: W. Weiss, S. Schneider, E, Wiskirchen, F. Schultz, O. Laufer, E.

West Bend scored all four touch-downs in the Hrst half. West Bend 13, Mayville 20 West Bend's hopes for an undefeat- ed record were wrecked by Mayville in the second conference game. Al- though West Bend made more first downs, gained more yards from scrim- mage, and completed more passes, Mayville capitalized on the breaks and got more touch-downs. Warnkey's work at left end was exceptional, while Finke was the center of the Mayville attack. West Bend 26, Berlin 0 West Bend made a wonderful re- covery after the Mayville battle and whipped Berlin in the greatest game of the year. Thus far West Bend had beaten only two easy teams and lost to Mayville, and it was generally con- ceded that the big undefeated Green and Red team from Berlin, which had defeated Mayville in the first week of play, had the edge over West Bend. However, the Red and White showed a remarkable power and strategy with which Berlin could not cope. Three features of the game were the block- ing of a Berlin punt by Kissinger, a forty-yard pass from Puestow to Warnkey, who caught it in the end zone for a touch down, and the beau- tiful seventy-yard punt by Puestow. West Bend 37, Hartford 0 West Bend romped over the weak and inexperienced Hartford team for four touch-downs in the first quarter of the homecoming game. Heavy rains left the Held very muddy and half covered with water. The invaders failed to score but were hard fighters and good sports. West Bend 25, Port 12 Port was the next victim to fall be- fore the Red and White attack, but did not fall as easily as some of the others, Coach Sam De Merit's team was undefeated up to this time and had defeated West Bend for three consecutive yearsg however, it could not stop Heil's powerful line driving, which gave West Bend three touch- downs. Kuehlthau scored the fourth touch-down on a forty-yard pass from Puestow. West Bend 22, Columbus 7 The following Wednesday, Coach Pacetti took his squad to Columbus for a night game. ln the first half, neither team got within twenty yards of the opponent's goal, and numerous penalties on both sides slowed up the game. West Bend made a strong come- back in the second half and scored three touchdowns and a safety. The open field running of Wiskirchen was outstanding. West Bend 12, Oconomowoc 0 The last game of the season was won from a surprisingly strong Ocono- mowoc eleven which held West Bend scoreless for the first three quarters. It was a very cold day, which made it very difficult to handle the ball. Capt. l..ee Kissinger blocked one of Flanagan's punts in the last quarter to start West Bend on its way for the first touch-down. Puestow crossed the goal, and through Berger's fine run- ning West Bend was able to score again before the game ended. Coach Nello Pacetti has set up an enviable record in his first year of coaching. He came to West Bend High after graduating from the Uni- versity of Wisconsin, and proved him- self more than worthy of his high recommendations. He has won the confidence and friendship of his teams and has raised the athletic prestige of the West Bend High School. Gold footballs were given to the members of the first team through the courtesy of Mr. Howard Bruhy. Basketball Coach Pacetti did not have much material to start with in basketball, but developed a very strong team before the season got a good start. This im- provement is well shown by compar- ing the two Oconomowoc games. In December West Bend lost to Cooney, I8 to ll, in a non-conference game, but in the regular conference game near the end of the season Pacetti's five was victorious. by a count of 24 to l l. West Bend 29, Port 15 West Bend looked like anything but a weak team in the first game when they turned Port Washington back to avenge the 23 to 25 defeat of last year. Johnny Puestow was the big star of the evening with I3 points. West Bend 15, Cedarburg 10 The team managed to beat Cedar- burg by a narrow margin the follow- ing week. Many of the weak points were brought out and Coach Pacetti drilled his team very hard during the next week. West Bend ll, Oconomowoc 18 The third game still found the West Bend quintet trying to get organized. The outcome of this game didn't make the Little Ten prospects look very good. West Bend 14, Port 11 Port Washington provided more opposition for West Bend in the sec- ond of the annual two-game seriesg however, we managed to hold a small lead most of the game. Johnny Pues- tow and Eugene Gonring did most of the scoring. The defense work of Bob Pick was commendable. West Bend 24, Hartford 19 In spite of the fact that the team had only several days of practice dur- ing Christmas vacation, it showed a big improvement over the early games by defeating Hartford in the first con- ference game. Eddie Wiskirchen led the West Bend attack with nine points. Simpson was high for Hartford. West Bend 21, Waupun 14 West Bend traveled to Waupun for the second conference game, and the team elected John Puestow to the captaincy just before the game. After barely holding the edge by a 6 to 4 count at the intermission, the Red and Vvhite stepped out and took a safe lead in the third quarter. Puestow was high with eleven points. West Bend 28, Columbus 16 West Bend took an undisputed lead in the Little Ten race by virtue of its victory over Columbus. The invaders acquired an 8 to 4 lead in the first quarter, but West Bend came up to take a one-point lead at the half. ln Basketball Team Top Row: Mr. Pacetti, E. Gonring, M. Gonringr, W. Potter, E. Harth, R. Pick, W. Weiss. Bottom Row: L. Kissinger, R. Puestow, J. Puestow, E. Wiskirchen, H. Warnkey. V the second half, the team displayed some real basketball strategy and completely outplayed Columbus. Pues- tow, Warnkey, and Potter did most of the scoring. West Bend 29, Beaver Dam 1 1 Coach Pacetti's team continued its winning streak by crushing Beaver Dam on the Beaver's home floor. Bobby Puestow, starting his first game, pushed his brother Johnny for honors by scoring nine points. Johnny came through with his regular form and contributed eleven points. The excep- tional guarding of Wiskirchen and Warnkey held the Beavers to four field goals. West Bend 21, Horicon 25 West Bend lost a double overtime game to l-loricon, and this defeat put Mayville in a tie with West Bend for first place. Neither team held more than a two-point advantage at any time during the second half. West Bend led by one point when the final gun sounded, but Stahlkopf of Hori- con was awarded two free throws be- cause of a fowl just before the timer's gun sounded. He made one to tie the score at I9 points. ln the first over- time period, each team scored once, but l-loricon made two baskets in the second overtime for the victory. West Bend 24, Oconomowoc 11 Johnny Puestow was again the leader in West Bend's victory over Oconomowoc. West Bend took the lead at the start and held it all the way. The guarding of Kissinger, Warnkey, and Wiskirchen was com- mendable. West Bend 14, Mayville 24 West Bend traveled to Mayville to light out the tie over the lead and de- cide the championship. The old May- ville jinx was still too strong for West Bend to overcome. The boys could not get their plays to click and lVlay- ville clinched the championship. West Bend 23, Ripon 10 ln the last conference game, Coach Pacetti's team smothered Ripon to finish the season in second place. Math. Gonring starred with five bas- kets. West Bend 30, Burlington 20 For the first time in seven years, West Bend stepped out of its class and competed in the district tourna- ment at Racine. A brilliant victory over Burlington, in which Johnny Puestow sank eight baskets matched West Bend up against the powerful Kenosha team. West Bend 15, Kenosha 31 West Bend made a good showing, but the more experienced team from Kenosha High gave the Red and White too much competition and Ke- nosha went into the semi-finals. Second Team Top Row: H. Hackbarth, Mr. Pacetti, G. Weinert. Bottom Row: P. Wiedmeyer, P. Otto, K. Kuehlthau, M. O'Meara, W. Gonring. Track 1933 Coach Runkel's 1933 track team brought West Bend High School its first Little Ten Conference athletic championship. West Bend was repre- sented by a well-balanced, hard work- ing team, showing strength in the field events as well as the track events. The men who earned letters on last year's team are William Haebig, Andrew Gehl, John Puestow, Leroy Kissinger, Harold Warnkey, Daniel Pick, Philip Pick, Harold Schowalter, Theodore Dickmann, Elmer Beuscher, Elmer Kannenberg, Robert Puestow, and Melvin Riesch. The season started off with an over- whelming 76 to 23 Victory over Ocon- omowoc in which West Bend won ten of the eleven events. The annual triangular meet, usual- ly held here, was run off at Hartford this year. Port again took the first place honors but West Bend managed to nose out Hartford by one point for second place. Two weeks later West Bend met Hartford in a dual meet and this time Coach Runkel's squad definitely set- tled any question about the track supremacy by defeating the Orange and Black by a score of 7116. to 36M. West Bend ran away with honors at the Little Ten Conference meet at Wayland Academy, scoring 41 points. Hartford was second with 26 and Ber- lin followed with Zl. The Red and White won four events: Kissinger, the shotputg Puestow, the discusg Dan Pick, the 440-yard rung and Dick- mann, the 880-yard run. West Bend also won the half mile relay, a special event. The relay team consisted of Gehl, Dan Pick, Warnkey, and Hae- big. The last meet on the schedule was an invitational meet sponsored by Ripon College. Here West Bend also took first honors. Bobby Puestow pulled a surprise by winning the pole vault. Pick and Dickmann were again victorious in the 440 and 880, respec- tively. Track Squad Top Row: E. Lang-r, L. Laubenstein, H. Chesak. P.

At the same time, several other Little Ten schools began to take baseball more seriously, and as a result, it was given a place with football, basket- ball, and track on the Little Ten Con- ference athletic schedule. The con- ference schools were divided into north and south sections. West Bend was placed in the south section with Mayville, Horicon, and Oconomowoc. Throughout the season the West Bend nine found itself matched up against more experienced players. Nevertheless, the close scores in the games lost indicate that the Red and White had a strong defense and showed its opponents a good fight. The team was coached by Mr, Schuel- ke. This year the team is being coached by Mr. Pacetti whose schedule is as follows: April 27-Jackson at West Bend May 4-Mayville at Mayville May 8-Cedarburg at Ceclarburg May ll- Oconomowoc at West Bend May l5-Country Day at Milwaukee May I8 -Horicon at Horicon May 22-Country Day at West Bend May 24-Mayville at West Bend june 111-lorieon at West Bend June 4-Oconomowoc at Oconomo- WOC Baseball Team Top Row: W.

The Pick Grand Trophy is awarded to the best all-around athlete, and a smaller cup is awarded to the most valu- able man in each of the four major sports. The awards are made upon the decision of a committee composed of two members of the Alumni Association, two members of the Student Activity Association, and two faculty members. 1933 Awards Football .,,t....,.,....,,.,..,,.....,...... .-.Leroy Kissinger Basketball .,,,..... .....,.,,,,,..,......., . john Puestow Baseball ....,,.,. .,.,...

And when Ewald Kuester the party began. The Hausmann told the band to play, 'You're Gonna Lussier Gal,' and so we started to Dunst the whole night. Herr Kolofa, Herr Haumschild, and Herr Gersh- mal played in the band with Schloemer, the blackSmith and Brainerd, the detective and Herr Schultz who was the best Pfeiffer. He said, If you are Weiss, Pick your gal Erler, or someone else will be Steilen her away before Lang. Ruby, the Cooke, was at our Survis, for we all did Suckow many a Kapp of Baer from the Wahouske and Knicklebein Bruhy and also some Kimla. We all felt very Goeden, and it sure affected our Harth. That wasn't Alliet, for Orlando was continually sing- ing the Laubenstein song and stumbling over Renee's Foote. She said, Juech Otten Nefzer do that. And with a Klink, Or- lando fell down dragging her with him. This got Ossie, the Ashman, mad as a Kuehn, for he thought Orlando would Roecker. To be Frank with you, he acted like a blinkety Blank Demmon, and we heard a Gonring sounding like a Berger alarm. We all felt very Ciriaok-ly after the Schacht was fired. Ossie ran like a Wolf over Dwyer fence and out into the Yahr-d, Heiting Rauen where the Kullman left the Kohl. He started to Weinand cry. Orlando Ross unhurt and fol- lowed him, and then they began Feiten. 'Tm going to Kuehlthauf' said Ossie. Butts Renee begged them to stop before they both were Dettman. Then they became very Hembel and felt like two Hicks, one Wick- ert than the other. Lutz prove we are Naumann and Keep Coo- ley, said Ossie. Orlando told Os- sie to throw his Puestow away, Continued on page 3 1934 HOBBY SHOW NEARLY STOPPED DAY BEFORE OPENING Rare Ahler Arrows Threaten Delay The 1934 Hobby Show, one of the events of the Guidance Pro- gram, was very nearly closed before it opened. After all plans had been very carefully checked by the committees, everything was pronounced ready. But disaster was around the corner, no doubt holding hands with prosperity. With the show ready to open, one of the freshman boys ap- proached Mr. Hutchinson and firmly but fearfully told him that he was not sure whether or not he could bring his arrows. But he added reassuringly, In case I can't bring 'em, why you go right ahead with the show anyhow. Don't delay it on my account. However, fore-warned is fore- armed. The committee, heaving two or three sighs of relief, hur- riedly phoned all collectors in town and by 'good luck found some arrowheads. Although the exhibitors resented playing second fiddle, the show went on as smoothly as ever.

SCIENCE INSTRUCTOR FINDS NEW METHOD OF RE- LAYING STEAM One of the outstanding discov- eries of the past year, which is expected to revolutionize labora- tory experimentation, was the unique method evolved, with the help of Roger Devenport, for tap- ping steam from the furnace room to the physics laboratory. On days when the gas pressure is low and the Bouncing burners do not bounce so well, it takes forever, or longer, to boil the water. A solution was needed if the class work was to run smooth- lyg Roger provided the extra help. One day with pail in hand he hurried to Mr. Becker in the boil- er room. Oh, Mr. Becker . . Mr. Becker! he shouted, I must have some steam at once. The boys in the lab need some right away. Just one pailful, please. Mr. Becker informed him that he had to fill up the barrel first before he would be able to tap a pailful, Nevertheless, now the ex- periments move along as well as on the days when the gas pressure is low, for Roger is always at the door with his shiny bucket. There is only one danger lurking for Roger, the Steamfitters' Union may prosecute him for chiseling. FASHION NOTES Phillip Pick, the well-known orator, suggests for wear in school on very cold days, stocking- feet in galoshes. 'tTwo pairs of socks may be worn if necessary, says Mr. Pick. Mr. Schuelke, West Bend High School's Jokester, believes for cafeteria wear, dark trousers, iblack or dark bluel, and a light grey or tan suit-coat. Mr. Schuelke startled people when he at first put into effect this style of dress, but according to latest reports, the Prince of Wales advocates the same idea.

'5I, THE CARPET SWEEPER THE CARPET SWEEPER Staff Editor: Kathleen Kullmann Assistant Editor: Robert Clark Main Room Sweeper: J. McQueen Corridor Curator: Philip Caspari THE IDEAL SCHOOL An Editorial With the closing of the 1934 school term, the CARPET SWEEPER thinks it not amiss in this final issue to leave to the undergraduates a program which is the result of four years obser- vation and inconvenience. We do this in the hope that our sugges- tions will be taken seriously and that all concerned will work zealously for the maintenance of greater comfort to all concerned in the present FOUR YEAR PRO- GRAM. If these suggestions can be put into practice, we feel sure that our time has not been need- lessly slept away. Had future 'graduates been more generous and taxpayers more will- ing, we should have had a school that really would have been a school! Of course, we do not ex- actly disagree with the good in- tentions of the citizens Calthough the lack of foresight has caused us a great deal of troublej, never- theless, with all apologies to Mr. McLane and the Board of Educa- tion, we suggest the following proposals. 1. The ideal school in our estima- tion should be a Spanish build- ing, in the center of which will be a fountain of orange juice, surrounded by soft lounging chairs. 2. An attendant to park all cars. 3. Doormen at the front and rear doors. 4. Oriental rugs in all corridors to soften the dainty footsteps of all tardy people. 5. An individual radio for all desks. 6. A chimes system to arouse gently all studious somnambu- lists instead of the present raucous bell blowing. 7. Class periods long enough to permit previous assignments to be turned in and new ones obtained. 8. A staff of secretaries to do all routine work for the faculty, so that the teachers may drive their cars around town too. ,52' 9. A ten o'clock lunch period and a two o'clock tea hour. CMr. Pacetti to be barred from the sandwich counter.J 10. A drug store to be established in the cafeteria. All school hours to be short- ened sufficiently to eliminate all absences and tardinesses. 12. A referendum to permit the taxpayers of the city to pay for the said program. 11, THE BAD BAD SAMARITANS A Short Story Complete on this Page The rain had begun in the gloaming as the sun was setting over Cedar lake. and busily driz- zled chisels of water on the high- ways until it was not safe to venture out, especially in a car. Especially in a Chevrolet after dark. After all, since we must have weather, it rained until the highways, especially 33, were very greasy. The two citizenship teachers were just loafing along when sud- denly there appeared before them the rear of a car with its nose in the ditch. Backing the big black job up to the unfortunate ditch- dweller, the boys inquired wheth- er they could be of help. Since succor was needed, a chain was produced, and the tennis coach watched as the distressed car owner attempted to fasten it to the Chev's bumper. To the bump- er! Says he, Hey, you can't hook it there! You'll pull off the bumper! Well, where will I hook 'er? Fasten it to the frame under- neath. That's stronger and won't break. But I can't do that. It's wet and muddy, and I've got my good suit on. I simply can't get down there. You fasten it for me. Well, it looked as though every- body had his good suit on for the dance, and the Good Samaritan remembered his cleaner's bill of the last month. Then, Mr. Runkel saved the day, the night, the car, and every- body's good suit by leaning out of the car and offering to take the unfortunate gents home for over- alls so that they could fasten the chain to the frame of his general motor. And so ends the story of our bad, bad samaritans, for succor and not suckers was needed. THE LAST DUSTY Everything of the past four years that was of the least gos- sipy interest ought to have been included in this column. But when there are people in a school such as there are in the West Bend High, it would take a volume of books to get all of the things in. Dusty hopes she has included those of the most interest in the CARPET SWEEPER. Several freshman boys have been sort of left out of things. Anyway, that's what it says in several freshman journals. It seems Macon Butts got nearly all the freshman girls to fall for him because of his southern drawl, and Junior Lang, Elmer Puestow, and Joe Honeck got the rest. These four have been termed the Freshman Lady-Killers. . One of the funny times was when Junie Gonring's and Susie Pick's names were read off the platform for skipping school. Alice Bast had quite a mania for finding things in people's cars this year. It was during the wint- er, I believe, around the debating season that the most things were found. Alice and Olga Plischounig are still laughing over one thing. Webster Weiss, one of the weiss men about town, insisted he was losing weight. Finally, some- one, to help him along, asked what he was doing to lose this weight of which he was talking. What do you think he said? Well, he was losing his hair!!! Weiss guy!! Remember? The Hartford Prom and the talk Mr. Runkel gave on track which included this social function? Well, Warnkey made thirteen points the next day! One Friday night when every- one was down town and Messrs. Grignon, Baxter, and Hildebrand took to bicycling around town? The owner of Mr. Grignon's bi- cycle Was pacing back and forth in the road wondering if his bicycle still had its original ap- pearance. When Horie Bruhy got so red you couldn't tell the difference between his face or his sweater? That was the time his name and Melva Zimmel's name was read off for a private rehearsal of their very private scene in the class play. THE CARPET SWEEPER THE LAUFER'S RETURN or WVHAT'S IN A NAME Continued from page 1 and then everything became Reg- ner. Ruby brought in the Bast she bought from a Fischer, and with them she served Braun Appelt turnovers from the Boeker. Our mouths began to Walter when we saw this good Meliusg but alas, the food was all Bernt, and with a Klumb the table was upset. They had to Bauer a great Diels of clay dishes from the Potter next door, and food was gotten from Schroe- der, the milkman, Westenberger, the Bucher, who specialized in Bingham Cfor he Salter down himself? and Gadow, the Miller. Then we began Bucklin down to eat. We threw our Gumm away and began to Kraemer selves full. Ewald choked over a Bohn, be- cause he couldn't Eder. Ossie was Unruh-ly for he spilt gravy over his pants while he was Stoffel-ing like a Hauf. His conduct began to em-Berres everybody. The Kind Taylor offered to Braasch them immediately, after a little Beck- ing he said, Eimermann and I know how you feel. They were eating Clark Kaehny bars and Johnson chocolates when Ewald began Coughlin away, and his spirits started to de-Klein. He needed Rehm medicine, for cough- ing Peters him out. The clock Ustruck two. 'Til be all a Lonergan, said the Haus- mann, for at Present it is late, and we all need our Scherer of sleep. So I'll send you little Schaefer's home Thoma, but try not to Weyker up. James, Sho- walter the door. I Willkomm to help you if it is necessary to Carey him to his Otto on the Heil. It was Driessel-ing outside. There were Rutz in the road, and it was pretty Schlosser weather. But their Hames were not far away from McFarlane avenue. They were only a Quade of a mile. Kelley, the poor dog, was run over and his tail will Wagner more, for there Werner more life in him. The Marshall who Haas always been Enright told the Lehmann to Spaeth his garden and to Mauer his lawn for if he didn't sober up and look Kauth no Bales, even by the Mayer, could get him out of jail. He was Freehauf ever. The rest of the Beuscher were Gut- mann, he said. All the way home Ewald Held Ramona Claus. As he took her around Honeck, he said, Wied- meyer you Curley hair. I Fellenz love with you, and I want to Winn Johann. Woldt thou have me? Immediately, she put on Moritz and said, I want to be Ahlers. I Riley loved you ever since Em- mett you. He said, O'Meara me, I'll Schield you the rest of my life. And so they planned when he would be a Groom and she a June bride with a Rose in her hand and Rusch on her cheeks. Late that night he put the old Warnkey into the Laatsch and dreamed when the minister would say, Nielsen, and take this wo- man as your lawfully wedded wife.
