P1 Because it has opened a new world of companionship and understanding to many, the music department has become indispensable to our student life, Music has made great strides in the past few years. lts success today reflects direct- ly upon the constant effort and encouragement of the direc- tor, A. Lee Freeman. Our fifty-nine piece band, of which we are very proud, has been in the spotlight many times during the year and has added much to the spirit of sports. No pep-meeting, basketball, or football game would have been complete without the bancl adding color and urging the teams to vic- tory. Both the Woman's Club and the Chamber of Com- merce were entertained by the band, and twice public concerts were given. Enthusiasm and ambition are the prevailing spirits of the band members. This year something new was added to our music department for those who enjoy singing. The mixed chorus met three days a week in a regular class period, and thereby was able to accomplish a great deal. An unforgettable ex- perience for the members was the December concert given with the Carroll College Choir, when excerpts from Haen- delis Messiah were sung. Through the halls, Mondays after school floated the strains of three part harmony by the Girls' C-lee Club, This voluntary organization, with the band and mixed chorus, participated in a spring band concert. This year at Colum- bus on May 4, the band and the individual soloists made a clean sweep of first place ratings. Twenty-eight schools were in the contest. Vifith music becoming increasingly important in the school and community, our music department is doing its share to make the world a more harmonious place to live in. Our band displays its ability :it its first public concert.

Everyone eagerly participated in the magazine campaign, thereby raising the money in the treasury. Meetings were held once a month during the club period. For entertain- ment the Cierman Club had a varied program, At the March meeting beautiful color slides of cities and rural scenes were shown, and in April a movie was enjoyed by all. Parties and a picnic enlivened the spirits during the year. On the philanthropic side, members contributed their time and money to the Red Cross, both Senior and Junior branches, Los Amigos del Sur, under the guidance of Miss Zamorski, was organized to promote interest in South America, thus carrying out the good neigh- bor policy. The officers for the past year were President, Dolly Kenny: Vice-president, Virginia Dowtyg Secretary, Mary Ann Reichert, and Treasurer, Bill Cooley. Among the activities of the club were collecting money for the infantile paralysis fund and publishing a Spanish newspaper. Songs, games, and movies provided the entertainment at club meetings. Members occasionally tried Spanish recipes: and if the results were good, they sampled them at the meetings. The Spanish Club is doing its share to promote a better understanding between us and our Pan- American neighbors. The Senatus Populus Quae Romanus is better known as the Latin Club. Under the direction of Mr. Hoopman and officers Fred Eickman, presi- dentg lris Riley, vice-president and Mary Weinand, secretary-treasurer it had a lively year which ended with the annual Roman banquet on March Zl, S. P. R. pins were given to each member. Commissions from the sale of magazines, and concessions at games helped the club finance its affairs. Latin students also prepared gift boxes for the Red Cross drive, I I I Packing clothes for the United Nations Clothing Collection Drive for the U. N. R. R. A. highlighted the work of the club. The girls filled twelve boxes with a total of 957 articles. They also participated in filling Red Cross gift boxes to be sent overseas. ln the way of social activities the girls had a Christmas luncheon, their annual Mother-Daughter banquet, and closed the season with a picnic.

Pearl Wagner Something new was added to our high school this last year, an organiza- tion known as the Pep Club. The club adviser, Miss Miller, was always handy with ideas and suggestions. The purpose of the club was to pro- vide bigger and better pep meetings, and the members did a fine job. No officers were elected, and no dues were paid. A chairman was ap- pointed for each meeting, He would pick a committee that would dream up a stunt. Next heid call in the cheer leaders and talk with lVlr. Freeman, our band leader. All these people working together produced some swell pep meetings, Cheers for the Pep Club! May it have a long successful career at W. B. H. S. The Future Farmers of America is a national organization composed of local chapters in every vocational agricultural department. The chapter Home EC Club Pep Club now has a total membership of 83 and has been active in various com- F F A munity affairs. ln fall a parent and son night was held at which some of ' ' ' the students demonstrated their classroom projects. The first peacetime state convention was held May I6 and I7 at which West Bend was represented in the state speaking contest for the second consecutive year. At this convention four members became State Farmers. OFFICERS President , . . . Alfred Schmidt Vice-president . . . Herbert Fischer Secretary . . Robert Friedemann Treasurer . . .

George Schowalter, Betty Jaeckels, and Darlene Wiedmeyer prepare copy in The Clipper room, I I I The day the annual comes out is a day we all look forward to. We page The Bend through it and examine each picture carefully to find our own face. We pass it around for autographing and then put it away in a trunk or drawer. Very few students realize how much work and planning goes into our Bend. Long before anyone else has begun to think about annuals, a handful of seniors with Mr. Baxter's guidance have started working. This year's editors were Marianne Kircher and Carol Harty. Philip Schowalter acted as business manager, while jim Grogan and Dave Bor- chardt worked hard to get sponsorships. The first step was to plan a budget. When the staff knew how much money it could expect, plans for a layout were completed. Then the real work began. Pictures were taken and mounted. Articles were written and rewritten, and many a long hour was spent thinking up just the right title for a page or picture. As the deadline drew closer, the staff worked longer hours. lt wasn't all work though. There was a trip to Milwaukee to get ideas from other annuals, the fun of planning the pictures, and, of course, that final feeling of satisfaction when the last bit of copy was sent to the printer. The Clipper this year was published every three weeks and can boast Campus Clipper of a subscription of 425, the largest in its history. Only through the cooperation of editor, staff and adviser was such success possible. This year's set-up of the staff was different and things ran smoothly and efficiently. The editor-in-chief was Philip Schowalter, with news editor Norma Simon, feature editor Delores Rainey, sports editor Jim Grogan and art editor Marianne Kircher. Many members of the staff will be graduating this year. Norma Simon, jim Grogan, Sue Cooley, Barbara Ziegler, Carol Harty, Betty jaeckels, Dolores C-ruell, Grace Braeger, Kay Kircher, Mary Ann Reich- ert, Marianne Kircher and Philip Schowalter, all Clipper veterans, are leaving, but Clipper tradition will carry on.

We had slaved for weeks. Each night after supper the cast and our director, Miss Price, would be rehearsing, Bill Eberhardt and lim Grogan, the bang boys in charge of sound effects, had scoured the town for shotgun shells for the explosions. Fritz Reimann and his loyal crew had put in long hours on the set. Then Friday morning it started to snow. By evening we were in the midst of one of the worst blizzards in years. And we were presenting a play called Spring Fevernl The play did go on for the handful of loyal people that braved the elements to see it. No one forgot his lines or entrances: the explosions came at the right time. ln fact, everything went off like clockwork, Best of all, we decided to present the play again the next Tuesday for those people who had been detained by the weather. This time Mother Nature was on our side, and the cast played to a full house. The play was a college farce.

Howard Brant fBob Yahr, is trying to finish a term paper for Professor Bean Uerry Vogelsang,.

Mr. Purcell is in reality a wealthy man who had promised the college a generous endow- ment, which he retracts when manhandled by the boys who think he is Vic's model. Then Anne Purcell fcarol Hartyl and Vivian George fsue Cooley, step in and decide to straighten out matters, with an elaborately faked death scene, Ed Burns fDave Borchardtl as a chemistry student kept the audience awake with frequent explosions. Lou Herron fKitty Gadowj dashes in and out trying to lure Ed away from his explosions and to attend the Commencement Ball. Mrs. Purcell fPhyllis Wentorfl makes a nuisance of herself looking for her husband. While Howard's Aunt Maude fCarol Sauer, has poor Professor Bean in a state trying to soften him up about Howards term paper, President Dixon fRalph Werner, searches for the boys who mistreated Mr. Purcell. The whole action made a fine play. For the success of the play the senior class is thankful to Miss Price, the director, and to Miss Miller who took charge of the costuming and make-up.

Come on team! l..et's go! ! l Watch that forward! Yes, that's typical conversation each Tuesday and Thursday night as the G. A. gang get their joints limbered up and their otherwise heavi- ly taxed minds relaxed. Soccer and field hockey are the two fall sports, but as soon as cold weather arrives, the girls begin to practice for the volleyball tournament. ltis nothing to see a team stack up a score of 70 points in a game! The seniors did exactly that to clinch the volleyball tournament. The junior G. A. A. 'ers surely know their basketball. They are proud of themselves for winning the tourney. But who can blame them? Girls who wish to play for championships in the lighter sports, such as badminton and ping pong do so toward the end of winter. Baseball, tennis, and archery are the popular spring sports. Remember those freakish-looking girls you saw walking around school one day last December? They were the 35 freshmen being initi- ated into the G. A. A. After an entire day of wearing queer clothes combinations and suffering various other humiliations, they were given a party by the old members. This was done in grand style with plenty of food to revive the worn out initiates. A sum of l00 points is the initial requirement for membership, while l200 win a B. Besides the 35 new members there are 29 sophomores, 25 juniors and I2 seniors, making a total membership of lOl athletic-minded girls. The girls who kept the meetings in order, the records down pat, and figured out points were: Betty Jaeckels, president: Dolly Kenny, vice-president: Mary Schowalter, secretary treasurer: and Kay Kircher, the point secretary Miss Welch, who is in charge of the organ ization, was ably assisted by Miss Zamorski. The girls are fond of both of their leaders and appreciate the time they have spent with them. 3 Page seventeen G. A. A.

Boldt, Dengel, and Horle were the outstanding sharpshooters. Later when a return game was played the Benders triumphed with a score of 40 to 2I. Two games against Cedarburg were won by West Bend, the first 33 to 25, and the second 35 to 29. On December 4, in a fast-moving game with Kewaskum the Red and White five finished with a 24 to I8 win. Then the follow- ing week Coach Bucci's squad fought with Waupun for a well- deserved 26 to 24 victory. However, in the next game the Green and White boys from Port scored a 37 to 20 victory. The I4th of December saw the Red and White squad lose its first conference game to the title-holding Horicon team, score 38 to 26. The next Friday the Benders dropped a tough overtime thriller to Hartford. At the final whistle the Benders needed one basket. Score Hartford 37, West Bend 35, When the team took on Columbus, Reid HorIe's high score of I3 points could not carry the victory. The Benders lost 46 to 34. ln the next tilt, Jim Boldt was high scorer with I0 points. Both teams played a tight, defensive game, but even the 5 points by Huna Klein and the 4 extra points by Horle failed to stop Berlin from winning by 28 to 2I. The con- ference game at Beaver Dam on january I8 gave the Benders their fifth loss. Although Dengel and Horle made 28 points, the final score was 50 to 3I. The following week at Mayville the Benders, by setting a hot pace during the second half, got rid of their jinx and won by a score of 39 to 32. Dengel led the scoring with I4 points while Horle followed with I2. Next came Hartford. Here the Benders were unable to hit their stride, and after an 8 to 8 deadlock in the first quarter, lost by a score of 32 to 28. In the last three games of the season, the Benders took a win from Ripon and Iost to Port Washington and Oconomowoc. Then at the regional tournament, playing superb ball, the Red and White was defeated by one point by Sheboygan, score 4l to 40, and by two points by Ripon, score I8 to I6. VVest Bend drops another shot through the hoop to add two points to the score. VVest Bend guards closely as Hartford takes the ball out of bounds.

Bottom row--Fred Reimann, Herbert Goeden, Eugene Bohn, Wallace Dagget, Gerald Kircher, Starting the I945 track season with ayoung and fairly inexperienced group, the team still managed to win two meets and place fifth in Little Ten standing. Stepping in as track coach in view of the wartime emergency was Roy T, C-rignon, who needs no further introduction. Coaching track was no new experience to Mr. Grignon who turned out fine teams in Marinette several years ago. During the entire season, Coach Grignon kept one eye to the future, realizing that practically everyone on the squad would be returning the following year. Underclassmen were given an excellent chance to select their event and to train for it. Two freshman-sopho- more meets gave the newcomers an opportunity to experience competition before being placed on the varsity, Proof that West Bend was developing a better than average team was apparent when our freshman-sophomore squad won the Little Ten champ- ionship. Special recognition may well be given Donald Bauer for his remarkable showing against stiff competition. Don amassed over a hundred points during the season. He represented West Bend High School at the state meet in Madison, where he won third place in the IOO-yard dash and the broad jump, and fourth place in the 200-yard dash. Bauer toes the mark. A lack of experienced players, a scarcity of material in some places, and a general run of hard luck throughout the season marked the path of West Bend High's i945 baseball season. Out of ten games played, the team won two, and only one of these was a conference victory, Many errors in each game proved to be costly: and when up against tough competition, the mistakes were turned into runs by the opposition. Coach George Hennings took on the job of building a team out of a small number of returned lettermen and many new boys. The task of selecting and training applicants for the right position was not an easy one. All of the Little Ten Conference games played during the season were doubleheaders. Both of the games with Hartford were tough ones. The West Bend outfit almost pulled out ahead in the second one, but couldn't quite make it, Horicon's sluggers got the best of our pitchers in the second game to cinch both. Although Mayville batted in four runs in the first game, West Bend's nine finally clicked to take the second.

With five 'u ' h l ' J mor c eer eaders Pat Collins Mary Lou Burg Margaret Kenny ulienne Edgar and Margaret Cain the response from us was extra loud. Selecting junior class rings was the next big event. The committee worked with Miss Podruch and chose three rings for the class, After we inspected the rings the vote was taken' a ring called the Commander won.

Secretary treasurer Donald KllCh8l We entered high school late m September of I945 about af month after the war ended There we were starting high school in the same year the world was settling down to peace ln order to eliminate the confusion a freshman usually goes through the admmlstratlon decided to have a Freshman Day We were to come to school a day before the other students and get oriented to our new environment Needless to say we learned our parts quickly The elections which came along in short order nourished a feeling of class loyalty We chose three boys for class officers Paul Schneiss as president Marvin Ramthun as vlce presldent and Donald Klrcher as secretary treasurer The election for student senate officers was really an experience We nomlnated lm Bell for the office of vlce presldent and plastered the halls with campaign posters The heckllng at the assem bly was terrific but lm took it and managed to deliver a good speech It must have been good because he was elected vice presldent of the student body We settled down to studying after a fashion but the football season was starting and every Friday meant a game l d say my first pep meet mg was the biggest thrill l had my freshman year The poundlng of the bass drum the cheer leaders gymnastics and the pulsatmg rhythm of the yells made my blood run faster my breath come quicker and I felt like hugging the girl next to me The program ended with the school song Our freshman gang sang lustily we stumbled over some of the words but the spirit was there All of us were sure the football season could not be excelled But right after Thanksgiving recess anyone near the gym could hear the dull thud of basketballs hitting the backboard. The basketball season was every bit as exciting as football had been. Coming back after New Years we were plunged into semester exams a new experience for all of us. We came to that first exam with anxious faces sweaty hands andltwo well-sharpened pencils but it wasnt as bad as we had expected. The completion of exams was cele- brated by a dance honoring our basketball team. The next few months flew by. Before we knew it station-wagon coats and bicycles began popping up on the campus and the boys were training for track and baseball. The biggest event of spring was the junior prom and the freshman class was well represented. After all why had we been polishing our dancing all year if it wasn t for our Hrst high school prom? It wasn t long before the annuals had come out semester exams were over and we were sophomores with a whole summer ahead of us.
