Curtainln shouts Glenn Weavers, stage man- ager, and another dramatic pro- duction begins. Backstage, the Stage Crew scurries about ar- ranging props, straightening cos- tumes, giving last touches to make-up, and hoping and praying that nothing will go wrong. All this is but a climax to a month's hard work for the Stage Crew. Their work, however, is not lim- ited. to plays. The Stage Crew serves in some way at almost every auditorium program, wheth- er it is a talent show, a guest speaker, or a pep meeting. Mem- bers must have a C average, and be recommended by their home room teachers. Mrs. Ruth McCarty acted as advisor for the club which chose Margie Rupp as secretary, and Sue Wegener and Bob Carpenter as program chairmen. On their Wednesday meetings, members of the Stage Crew enjoyed such speakers as Michael Hinn of WKOVV, and Mrs. Richard 'Church of the thea- ter guild, as well as several read- ings and short plays. G.A.A. The purpose of the G.A.A., Girls' Athletic Association, is to acquaint its members with the rules and regulations of the vari- ous seasonal sports. This year it was achieved by means of movies, talks by guest speakers, and actual participation in the sports. One of the most popular activities was a ping pong tournament which was held early in the year. Act- ing as president of G.A.A. was Mary Rusy. Kathleen Mackesey and Nancy Rogers served as vice- president and secretary, respec- tively, and Virginia Schulz was treasurer. Miss Alice Holmes acted as advisor for the club.

Pep Club Under the guidance of Ierry Remy as president, Ioe Miller, vice-president, Rose Marie Prochaska, secretary-treasurer, and Miss Betty Perego, faculty advisor, this new club had the job of promoting school spirit. With the cheerleaders as the nucleus, the club was formed at the beginning of the school year and worked out new cheers and auditorium pep programs. These programs consisted of speakers, cheering, and an occasional skit. Coach Harris enlivened many of our pep auds with his clever stories, often at Mr. Harnaclis expense. i191 A Cappella Choir Hurry up, you'll be late for practice, was the way most choir members greeted each other. Special rehearsals were required to prepare for programs such as the Christmas Pageant, the Christmas Program, the Winter and Spring Con- certs, and the Pop Concert, Under the direction of Miss Marion Huxtable, the choir has again proved. itself worthy of praise. Assisting Miss Huxtable were Burr McWilliams, president, Dave Matson, vice-president, Marjorie Iackson, secretary, Beverly Iohn- son, treasurer, and librarians Mary Ellen Oren, Marilyn Oliver, Louisa Maloney, and Lois Fauerbach. Girls' Triple Trio The Girls' Triple Trio made its first appearance before the pupils and teachers of West in the Armistice Day program. The girls gave special programs for adult groups, but we remember them for their work in the Christmas Program, the Pop Concert, and the Winter and Spring Concerts. During the Hrst semester the members of Triple Trio were Ann Miller, Beverly Iohnson, Virginia Bowman, alto, Sue Lentz, Pat Schmidt, Lou Anne Iones, second soprano, Beverly Niehus, Mary Ellen Oren, Iane Bandy, Hrst soprano. Second. semester, lane Bandy, Beverly Iohn- son and Mary Ellen Oren were replaced by Mary Rusy, Ioanne Guenther, and Mary Homann. Alicemay Gerret- son acted as accompanist. Boys' Double Quartet The Double Quartet has had a very interesting year. Besides appearances in several aud programs, they fre- quently have been asked to sing for activities outside of the school. Their repertoire consists of a wide variety of songs including barber shop harmony and selections from musi- cal comedies, as well as standard songs for male choruses. Members are Al Gay, Dave Moran, lst tenorg Dave Henry, George Crownhart, Znd tenor, Lowell Hall, Dick Wendt, baritone, Burr McWilliams, George Steinmetz, bass. These boys have done a good job this year and are to be heartily congratulated.

In addition to the Winter and Spring Concerts, they gave an unusual Pop Concert in the form of a mutual network broadcast. Beverly Iohnson and Ianet Easum are to be congratu- lated for their Hne jobs in performing piano solos during the two main concerts. The Band officers, with Wally Stebbins as Lieutenant, took care of the tasks of setting up chairs, caring for equipment and all office work. Orchestra . Fifty-two senior high students make up the West High Concert Orchestra which is under the direction of Mr. Ernest Stanke. This organization has added much to the enjoyment of West High pupils during the past year. Besides giving their annual Pop Concert for the school, they appeared in the Winter and Spring Concerts and furnished music for the fall dramatic production, Om' Hearts Were Yflung and Gay. Outstanding solo work has been done this year by Eva Perlman and Martha Curti.

F Social Committee The Social Committee members have had their usual busy season and, with the aid. of their advisor, Mr. Iames Schaefer, were responsible for some very success- ful dances. In the fall they sponsored the informal Homecoming Dance, which was held following the Beloit football game. One of the big events of the spring social season was the formal May Dance also sponsored by the committee and held this year on May 14. The Social Committee also supervised such affairs as the Grad Dance, the Yearbook Dance, and the W Club Dance, which are sponsored by various school groups. Members of the committee were Frank Wendt, chairman, Paul Beers, Dave Moran, Iohn Schlom, Lucia Koltes, Eddie Rubin, Beverly Iohnson, Elinor Westbury, Dick Roberts, and Ierry Remy. 23 Ojfice Workers ' Say, can I get another absence card? May I use the telephoneF,' Did you find a white scarf with a blue fringe? These and many other questions were asked of the girls working in the oliice this year. Their main duties were to watch the switchboard and pick up the ab- sence reports after home room and 7th period, but many other jobs were given to them. The switchboard was enough to keep them busy, but they also took telephone messages, delivered them, sorted mail, ran the ditto machine, and helped the people who came to the oHice desk wanting informa- tion or help of some kind. To these girls we extend our praise for their won- derful work. Class Night Committee The Forty-Niners Showboat was the fitting theme chosen by the Class Night Committee, headed by co- chairrnen, Iim Critton, and Glenn Weavers. Their committee members were Helen Worsencroft, Dave Severson, Iulie Pfanku, Ann Seibold, Wally Stebbins, Burk Brown, Bill Boaman, Iane Bandy, and Betty Christoffersen. Each member was responsible for one act among which were skits, bands, and quartets, all acts centering around the 49ers,, theme. Tryouts in early spring gave each aspiring performer an oppor- tunity to show his ability. Contrary to former years, only West High students participated in the perform- ance. In addition admission was charged for all those except seniors who attended the show. High Tim Laying out pages for High Times are Dick Roberts, Barbara Tews, Dave Umlancl, Mary Ann Hoclcl, and Kaye McGann. Taking a trip to Hillsboro, and, by the way, missing a day of school, was the main social event of the year for the High-Times members. A tea, a Christmas party, and a press box lunch were among the other events that relieved the hard work of the High-Times staff. During the year a twelve-page Christmas issue and fourteen regular issues were published under the direc- tion of Barbara Duff, Kaye McGann, and Mr. Robert Harnack, advisor. Many changes were made in an effort to make the High-Times the best yet, and wc think the staff of '49 did rt swell job.

Student Dirfcforf--Pele March, BfIl'bzII'II Smiih, On the night of December 3 West Senior High pre- sented its fall dramatic production. The audience that Friday night was introduced to Cornelia Otis Skinner and Emily Kimbrough as the main characters in Om' Hearts Were Young and Gay. The story is centered on Cornelia's and Emilyis trip to Paris and the adventures and. romance they had. Of course, when two teen-age girls get together, just about anything can happen, so you can imagine how delighted the audience was with this hilarious comedy written by Miss Skinner.

Pr- Och 1 asks' Robert H arri: 13-7 The team opened the season with a bang as they took a 13-7 victory from a rugged La Crosse Central outnt. The Regents capitalized on an intercepted pass for their first tally. Dick Christensen pulled the La Crosse pass out of the air and raced 55 yards to the goal line. The gridders struck again as Pete Ciulla pass- ed to Beyler for a touchdown on a play that covered 62 yards. After these two count- ers the boys settled down to protect their lead and finished the contest to gain a well de- served win. This victory was a good preview of what was to come as the Regents fought their way through another season under the able guidance of Coach Willis Iones and As- sitsant Coach Robert Harris. 27-6 The Regents opened conference play with a decisive 27-6 win over Racine Horlick. Al- though West's play was far from impressive, it proved adequate to down the 'KMalted Milk eleven from Horlick. Buzz Rebenstorff tal- lied two of the Regents' four markers on runs of twelve and fourteen yards. He also had a seventy-two yard scamper nullified because of a penalty. The team made the best of sev- eral Horlick fumbles which the boys turned into touchdowns. Guard Al Trotalli, tackle George Steinmetz, and center Dave Iohnson each had one recovery, The Regents outgained the Racine squad both in the air and on the ground. Penalties called back two Horlick 33-7 The Westians cleared their first obstacle in the quest of the city championship by romp- ing over Madison Central, 33-7. This victory also raised West's place in the conference standings. The red-hot Regents pushed over only one touchdown in the first half, but added four more in the second. Although the pass defense was a little on the ragged side, Central was held to little yardage on the ground. West took advantage of their strong line, as up-the-middle plays clicked regularly. The offensive line play of Bob and Al Trotalli was impressive. Bob Nichols and Pete Ciulla teamed with Iim Critton to add plenty of punch in the backfielrl. 28-6 The squad, riding on a wave of three straight victories, rolled to its fourth by beat- ing Racine Park, 28-6, at Racine. This win catapulted West into an undisputed first. place position in the Big Eight. The roarin' Regents all but swept the fighting Park team off the field. The boys controlled the game all the way and the statistics showed 253 yards gained by West to but 70 for the Shore City eleven. The rugged Regent forward wall real- ly proved itself in holding Park down and it opened the holes to let our backs through for considerable yardage. Ciulla paced the scor- ing with two touchdowns. Bob Curtin con- verted all four times. touchdowns. Down and 0141. Of! zhf lj ChriSW.5 dy- hlg W 011 7-0 The Regents continued to roll up victories as they whipped East in one of those savage battles which always marks a city series tilt. When the gun sounded, the West-siders had a neat 7-0 edge and a city series champion- ship. Alertness paid off for the boys as they recovered a fumble and converted it into the only score of the ball game, The lines were the determining factor in this contest. The work of Al Trotalli, the Regents' veteran guard, was, as usual, outstanding. The other boys in the line--Beyler, Iohnson, Bob Tro- talli, Steinmetz, and Schulz-continued their Fine showings. Pete Ciulla scored the touch- down and Bob Curtin converted. 19-6 The Roaring Regents traveled to lanes- ville and made it six in a row with a con- vincing 19-6 victory over an inspired Blue- bird squad. The hard charging of the line, plus the shifty and timely running of the backs, overcame an early six point Ianesville lead and put the game away for Coach Iones' victorious gridders. It was again the beauti- ful work of Pete Ciulla and soph halfback lack Barry that paced West to victory. lim Critton scored two touchdowns as the boys drove from their own one-yard line on both occasions. Art Schulz turned in a standout game at right end, and the line-backing of Hal Mathison was fine. This win set the stage for the all-important Beloit tilt. 7-13 The Regents suffered their only setback of the season when they dropped a 13-7 decision to a strong state-line eleven on a muddy field. The Westians overcame an early 6-0 deficit but they could not hold down Beloit. The game was hard-fought all the way, and both teams displayed solid football. Pete Ciulla, along with Iim Critton, led the West team in the ground-gaining department. The entire line, led by all-city and all-conference Ozzie Schulz and Puck Beyler, also performed well. The only mar on Beloit's record was a scoreless tie earlier in the season. This game put the State-Liners one-half game ahead of the Maize-and-Blue. 52-0 The Regents snapped out of the Beloit heartbreaker and closed the season in a blaze of glory over Kenosha. When the lights went out, the squad was on the long end of a 52-0 score. It was hardly a struggle as the team powered over eight touchdowns. lack Barry led the parade with two tallies and was as- sisted in the scoring with Ciulla, Curtin, Schulz, Rebenstorlf, Nichols, and Frank Wendt each getting one. Another bright Spot in the Regent victory was the competent showing of the reserves, which may mean another good year in 1949 for Coach Iones and the West High gridders. The team Finished in the runner-up spot in the Big Eight. Nice going, boys! MENDOTA LEAGUE W L T Pct.

The old spirit and confidence seemed to he there as the team began winning. The records show most of what happened. Racine Horlick, the power of the conference, was too powerful in both games. lt was the second VVest-Racine Park battle that was the heartbreak- er. Pa1'k's close victory shattered the title hopes the boys had cherished all through their first seven victories and two defeats. With little but a mathematical chance left for West, I-lorlick beat West for the second time, clinching the title for themselves. Dropping the last few games, West wound up in a tie for fourth place with Ianesville, There is a brighter side to the story. Fast, smooth ballplaying dominated the early and the mid-season, as this VVest team, rated to be last in the Big Eight, was out to show that no West High basketball team was going to be satisfied at the bottom of the pile. The boys did that. The team won the city championship, beating East once, and Central twice. They won seven games and lost seven. Credit goes to Coach Bob Harris and his assistants for shaping this team into a good ball club. lack Vincent, one of the most accurate scorers and dependable players West High has seen, netted 234 points to win the con- Basketball ference scoring championship and break Don Page's record of 225 points. Dale Bossenberry's smooth ball-handling and re- bounding won him a place on the all-city and all-Big Eight teams along with Vincent. lim Critton deserves credit for his steady dependable playing all season, and lohn Keitt for solid playing and Fine rebounding. Keith Iohnson pulled down more of those much needed rebounds at center. Our thanks also to Pete Ciulla. Duane Bredesen, and all the rest of the team, a team that couldn't have tried much harder for a championship. Bottom row, left to right: A. Ragatz, G. Fabian, I. Stein, I. Kelly. Middle row: B.

I Sophomores . i The prospects appeared bright for the Regent Sophs as the I bounce-ball season approached, and Coach Tom Iones, Ir. looked forward to a fine year. Then several key boys were moved up to the varsity and that hurt the quintet. They finished the year . after a slow start with a record of 5 wins and 10 losses. The steady playing of guards Iim Namio and Tom Nissalke, and for- ward Owen Roberts sparked the team to several fine showings. These boys will form the nucleus of next year's varsity squad. I Four Lakes The Four Lakes program was more extensive than ever this vear with 12 teams from West competing. The league is divided into various smaller groups which vary in caliber of competition. The most outstanding teams from West this year were the X's and the Screwballs, which won championships 'in their respective divisions, The Regionaires and the Royals turned out to be the best senior representatives from West in their leagues.

Track The West track squad showed promise and gave notice of their strength in the Wisconsin Rapids Relays, the opening meet. Headed hy Art Schulz, 1918 state shot put champ, Buzz', Rebenstorff, and Iohn Koellen, the Westians outclassed. a field of seven to win with 41 points. The boys also came through in the West Relays by nosing out Madison East in a Fight to the finish. Queen Nancy Iohnson and her escorts, Mary Ellen Oren and Margaret Pew, reigned over the meet. Both the Rapids and West Relays were won in the final event, where the mile relay quartet pulled out a win. The West B's came in fourth in the class B events. The Regents lost heavily from last yearls state championship team through ... graduation, and Coach Iones, along ' with assistants Tom Iones, Ir., and Bruce Fossum, deserve a great deal of credit for rounding out as powerful a squad as they have. West is undefeated since the state meet of 1947 and chances are that they can continue this string of continuous victories this year. l l Art Schulz Clarence Rebenstorif lack M-an5F'Cld Wrestling The wrestling team opened its second year in competitive action determined to improve on the record of the year before. Iim Lawrence, the new coach, had several lettermen back to form the nucleus of the squad. However, the grapplers took only one of their dual matches and sent two boys, Dave Hoeveler and Iack Hammes, on to win state consolation matches. The varsity members of the team were, Bob Bakkcn, 105 lbs., Ioe Miller, 115 lbs., Iack Hammes, 125 lbs., Dave Hoeveler and Dick Monson, 135 lbs., and Dave Umland and Dick Vaughan at 145 lbs. Dick Roberts fought in the 155 lb. division, and George Steinmetz competed in the 165 division. The light-heavyweights were Ronald Beyler and Iohn Colby.

The Westians also came out victorious in their one triangular contest. In the Big Eight meet, the team finished second to the state champion Racine Park squad. This race was highlighted by the efforts of Iohn Koellen, who outran a field of first-class competitors to cross the finish line first and set a new course record. West finished twelfth in the state meet. The lettermen were Koellen, Vlfally Stebbins, Iim Ward, Dick Vaughan, Mike Stuhldreher, Ron Remy, Ara Sergenian, and Iack Hammes. First row: B, Bakken, I. Miller, B. Doeringfelt, D. Monson, D. Hoeveler. Second row: I. Colby, H. Mathison, G. Steinmetz, D. Vaughan, I. Hammes. Archery The Regent bowmen, coached by Mr. Paul Olsen, were un- defeated again in 1948-49, lengthening their win streak to 24 straight dual meet triumphs. In addition, Bill Wolberg, Irv- ing Iohnson, Alan Bonsack, Tom Erickson, Bob Walters, Chuck Stumpf, Gene Roark, Ronald Babcock, and Bud Hahn took 8 of the first 10 places in the annual West Invitational Tourna- ment, beating out Edgerton, Montello, and Central for the team title. Lopsided victories were scored twice over each of their rivals in two-team- competition. The team also defended their National Olympic and Chicago Round championships, and entered several boys in the state tournament at Kimberly. Bill Wolberg, who again paced the archers in all competition, was defeated by one point, but took second place in the Iunior Flight Division. Bill accumulated several very high scores dur- ing the season, some of them record-breakers, and a very close to perfect total of 810. Hockey The puckmen again came through in fine fashion to round out an undefeated season. The team was hit hard by gradua- tion, but new men filled in the empty slots to make the squad a powerful one. Led by Roland Spike Annen and Ted Dan- ielson, the boys racked up victory after victory to give the team a claim to the mythical state championship. Other stand- outs were Fred Volkmann, Bill Walker, and Guerdon Coombs. The team was again under the able direction of Willis Iones and Iohn Riley. The Regents held their games and practices at the Vilas Park rink which is operated by the city. First row: G. Fowler, I. Hammes, A. Sergenian. Second row: VV. Stebbins, I. Ward, R. Remy, M. Stuhldreher, D. Vaughan. Third row: D. Riley, I. Koellen, H. Larson, E. Stephan, G. Miller, S. Frautschi, Coach Evans. First row: T. Towell, A. Bonsack, D. Bonsack, I. Huffer. Second row: I. King, M. Iohnson, L. Hall, C. Albrecht, E. Roark. I. Schlom. Third row: C. Gage, B. Searles, G. Steinmetz, G. Crownhart, W. Ebling, K. Kulik. Volleyball The Regent volleyball squad opened the season in defense of the state crown which the team won a year ago. Losses by graduation and ineligibility cut down the team's chances and didn't leave too much of a nucleus for the squad. Bob Harris' boys managed to win only one battle, that one with Central, but lost by close margins in several other matches. The main spikers were Bob Lea, Tom Nissalke, Ierry Padgham, Iohn Keitt, and Owen Roberts. Setting up for these boys were Dale Bossenberry, Bob Bakken, Dave Iohnson, and Iohnny Lovell. In the state meet the squad won its opener, but lost out in the championship bracket. Golf The Regent golf squad looks forward to the most successful campaign in its history. Headed by lettermen Bob Bruce, Doug Koepcke, and Bill Peanuts Haak, the boys should prove them- selves rough in any match. The missing link in this impres- sive golfing combo is a consistent fourth man. The leading competitors for this role are Ronnie Bergstrom, Dale Bossen- berry, Bob Tucker, and Iim Namio. The linksmen have an- other advantage in that they are host to the state golf meet, which will be played at Nakoma. If things turn out right for Coach Clifford Hawley's boys, the state golf crown might go to the West golf team. Here's wishing you luck, boys! First row, left to right: A. Ragatz, B. Walker, R. Kelly, I. Maurer, ll. Peterson, I. Seher, D. Boardman, L. Rosenberg. Second row: D. Stiehm, I. Vincent, D. Smith, O. Roberts, D. Ebling, K. Kilmer, H. Frank, G, Coombs. Rifle Club The Rifle Club, under the direction of Miss Esther Gerling and Ierry Teasdale, was organized this year. Members were picked and each one had to pass certain safety and gunncry tests. The club met every Wednesday night at the University rifle range. The riflemen competed in several dual matches, and placed fourth in the state meet at Milwaukee. The club also was scheduled to compete in a second state meet held in the spring. The officers were: Iohn Schlom, pres., Tom Towell, vice-pres., and George Steinmetz, secretary-treasurer. The club was not listed as a competitive team because of no regular practice or schedule. The Pioneer Club and the RiHe Team are outgrowths of the club. Back row, left to right: B. Seelinger, I. Keitt, D. Bossenberry, I. Padgham, B. Nicholson, I. Lovell, L. Rosenberg. Front row: I. Van Sant, B, Iiakken, I. Barry, T. Nissalke, B. Lea, D. Iohn- son, I. Mansfield. l 1 First row: T. Raymond, I. Namio. B. Haak. Second row: B. Tucker, R. Adkins, D, Bossenberry, B. Bruce, D. Koepcke. Tennis The tennis team was another of the Regent squads to win a state championship last year. Although graduation took sev- eral key men from last year's potent aggregation, there was still a nucleus for a strong squad this year. Iack Vincent, let- terman and runner-up in the state individual championship, led the prospects. On hand to help was Dick Stiehm, another regular last year. The other two positions were wide open. Vincent continued his rivalry with Dan Baumle, Whitefish Bay ace, this spring, and this pair produced some great tennis. After a series of dual matches, the Regent netters entered the Big Eight and state tourneys. First row: F. Quartuccio, T. Nissalke, G. Casper, V. Comstock, D. Holt, I. Mansfield, D. Christensen, R. Annen. Second tow: D. Hembrc, I. Neu, B. Trotalli, D, Moran, N. Ward, I. Schlom, P. Coffman, Coach Paugh. Ba eball The 1949 edition of the baseball team faced the rigorous task of molding itself into a strong.: aggregation with only two regulars back. Norm 'Ward, varsity third baseman, and Iim Critton, veteran outfielder, were the lone survivors of graduation. Helping them out are Iohn Schlom, a returning letterman and reserve outfielder last year, and Iack Neu, a talented pitcher. Coach Russ Paugh declared all other posi- tions wide open as the season started. The team lost their opener to the University IayVee squad by a score of 3 to l. After that the team met several other squads, including East and Central, the city rivals. Then the Wcstians entered the state meet. The squad practiced at Wingra Park and played their games at Franklin, Ilreese Stevens and Wingra Parks. Top picture-Ich ry Padgham and Iini Critton. Corner-N. Ward. D. Moran, I. Schlom. Left - R.

Girls inter- ested in field hockey participated after school but no tournament was scheduled. Bowling seemed to be the most popular sport of the year. The girls bowled every Tuesday for six weeks at the Lark under the supervision of Miss Alice Holmes. Mr. Obie Quam of the Lark also helped many of the girls with their games. The high spot of the year was the volley- ball tournament at East High School. Competition was keen between East, West, and C e n t r a l, the three participating schools. The West Sophomore team tied for first place while the VVest Iunior team broke even in its games. In the inter-school tournament Donna Tehan's team was vic- torious. Teams led by Ioyce McNearny and Sally Norg tied for second, by Pat Iefferson and Diane Pallett tied for fourthg and there was a three-way tie for sixth place between Louanne Roberts', IoAnne Wilson,s, and Suzanne Hilgers' teams. The next sport was basketball which ended late in the spring. The captains were: Roberta Lee, Eileen Riley, Mimi Mackin, Becky Russell, Mary Culver, Ioan Enders, and Sheila Ryan. The spring sports were tennis and base- ball. fm' fm-LU QSM' 1---. , K I I .L ' .lyk 5 8 V-4 Q S i till.. 693 xx .ti R W- Q A gf ' 1 I I X? f B eadafw Elaine Hawley Lou Ann Iones Douglas Koepcke Valedictorian Salululoriun Class Omtor Natzonal Honor Society Actwzty Pm Seniors Iuniors Seniors Did?
