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.

Council were Ann Stangl, Eugene Westenberger, and Paul Otto. 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.

What is that building over there? asked the President. That is the 'Building of Speechn in which we are well represented. 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.
