Before you, too, lies the opportunity for inaction, for irresolu- tion, and for idleness. The choice rests with you. We believe you possess the technical literacy to make effective use of your skills. We must not, however, be unmindful of developing socially useful attitudes that give direction to judgment, understanding, and ability to master social situations. Whatever uncertainties the future may held, of one fact we can be sure: Your gen- eration and those that follow will have to be citizens of the human community. You will have to understand the people of your country and those of many countries. To do this you will need a knowledge based on an awareness of human values. One of the objectives in this school has been to create and safeguard a philosophy and program by which these values can be developed. Our job, yours and mine, is to make sure that this ideal will be perpetuated. JOSEPH SCHWEI Where but in America expresses the theme of a certain song. The thought is significant for in few places on our globe is a public secondary school education provided young people by any government. Members of this class are indeed fortunate that they live in America. The main purpose of all education is to open up greater and better opportunities for those being educated. In a free America the opportunities are unlimited. You as members of this class must do everything in your power to protect and defend the freedom of America. You must keep op- pcrtunity from being stifled by those who do not favor freedom for all of our citizens. The hope of America is in its youth and youth banded together can preserve our common heritage, our freedom. You of the class of 1955 are part of that great band. West Milwaukee High School expects you to do your part and to do it well. MATHEW BARKLEY ya ff ffgn ,I Ll WILLIAM SCI-INEPP WILLIAM STUTZMAN GEORGE SANFORD Clerk Trearurer Direclor SCHOOL BOARD At this critical junction in history when the nation's need for responsible citizens is urgent and more Americans are attending schools than ever before, it seems pertinent to inquire whether the public schools have the financial means to provide an effective education for our country's youth. There is disturbing evi- dence that in many places the problems of securing a qualified teaching staff and the educational facilities basic to a good program of instruction are far from solved and that in some communities the situation in some aspects is actually deteriorating. CSchool Board Journal - September, 19525 The editors feel that our School Board is doing an excellent job. They have cooperated in every way and given their support to us whenever it was needed. We wish to thank the members of the Board for the part they had in making it possible for us to take a pleasant memory of our school with us. OFFICE STAFF MRS. KRAFT MRS.

SENIOR CLASS PLAY Arsenic and Old Lacef the Senior Class Play of 1953, was presented on March 26, and March 27. The delightful comedy concerns two old maids who use arsenic to poison old men. This creates some amusing scenes when their nephew, Mortimer, hnds out about their charitable hohhy. The aunts have two other nephews: Teddy, who believes he is Teddy Roosevelt, and Jonathan, who resembles Boris Karloff and has killed twelve men thus equalling his aunts' record. Elaine, Mortimer's nance, lends romantic interest. Dr. Einstein, jonathan's doctor friend, affords some amusing incidents. After some sinister moments, the play comes to a happy conclusion. In the cast are Edith Malson, Ahhy Brewsterg Wztlter Westliotlser, Dr. Harperg Ken Czarnecki, Teddy Brewster, Dennis Gruzynski, Ofhcer Brophyg Royce Darling, Officer Kleing Susan Thelaner, Martha Brewster, Doris Ahonen, Elaine Harper, Bill Knee, Morti- mer Brewsterg Phil Rychner, Mr. Gihhsg Harvey Luckmann, Jonathan Brewster, jack Jenneriahn, Dr. Einsteing Phil Merrill, Ofhcer O'Hara, Ronald Lentini, Lieutenant Rooney, and Wztlter Stevens, Mr. Wfitherspoon.

His best game was played against Waukesha, during which he scored eighteen points and paved the way for the Mustang victory. DICK FUNKE, Junior, Center. This was Dick's first year on the varsity. He gave the Mustangs depth at the center position. Dick was especially good with a lay-up shot, his rebounding was always tops. MIKE GUERINO, Senior, Forward. Mike played a bang-up game which off-set his lack of height. Mike didn't see too much action but could always be counted upon to play to the best of his ability. TOM KNEUSEL, junior, Center. Tom was the backbone of this year's Mustang hoopsters. He was one of the leading scorers in the Suburban and the top point man for the Mustangs. Using his one- hand pushshot and the tip-in, Tom tied Jerry Stanzer's scoring record when he scored 55 points against Greendale. ' WALLY KOEHN, Senior, Guard. Wally was a valuable player who could come in and play a relaxed game under pressure. Wally played his best game against Shorewood. He had speed, poise and the ability to score that important point. KEN KUHS, Sophomore, Guard. Being just a sophomore, Ken won the first string guard spot. He is a hard-working team man who could be counted upon to turn in an excellent game. He seldom missed those long shots, especially in the overtime of the Shorewood game. GARY NELSON, Junior, Guard. This was Gary's second year on the varsity. He had the desire to win and the driving speed, he could always turn in a creditable job on offense and defense. LARRY SPERKA, Senior, Forward. Lack of experience hurt Larry, but he had the spunk and tactfullness to turn in a commendable performance. Although he was the shortest man on the team, he made up for that with his keen eye and defensive ability. DEAN STANLEY, Senior, Center. Towering 6 ft. 6 in., Dean was the tallest man on the team and in the Suburban. Although Dean didn't see too much action, he was in there trying and turning in an efficient job. FRANK STANZER, Sophomore, Forward. Frank was a hard working, elusive forward, who played every minute for the good of the team with the will to win. He played an adept game, his favorite shot was the lay-up, which he used to good advantage in the Waukesha game. DICK TILLEY, Sophomore, Forward. Dick was another man who helped the Mustang assaults. He was a good dribbler, good ball handler, and an expert shot. As the season progressed, Dick im- proved to great stature, especially when he scored eighteen points against Nathan Hale. JACK VAN DAM, Senior, Guard. Jack was the sharpshooter of the team, a fine ball handler, and a cool defensive player. jack was converted to a guard this year, although he filled in at center on some occasions, notably the Shorewood overtime game. He controlled many rebounds and was second high in scoring. PETE WALLNER, Junior, Forward. Pete could have seen more action, but this year's experience should help him next year. Pete was a hard worker who had the pep and spirit to be a good playmaker. DWAYNE WESTOVER, Senior, Guard. Dewey added reserve strength at guard. He was a careful shot and an aggressive defensive man. In this, his second on the varsity, Dewey had the scrap and competitive spirit to be a real' asset to the team. GARY WUCHERER, Senior, Forward. This being Gary's first year on the varsity, he was a conscientious player who did everything for the good of the team. Gary was a good ball handler who sank left hand push and lay-up shots. GORDON ANDERSON, Junior, Assistant Manager. Gordy helped Don and performed his duties efficiently, and indirectly he helped in the success of the Mustang team. DON STRANDT, Senior, Manager. Don shifted from the playing to the managing end of bas- ketball this year. He was a competent manager who helped the team immensely. He was well liked by all the boys. COACH JACK BEATTIE. Mr. Beattie has a busy schedule being athletic director and varsity bas- ketball coach. This year, Coach Beattie turned in one of his expert coaching jobs, by directing the young Mustang team to near the top of the standings. He is known throughout this area for his expert coach- ing and tight zone defense. His teams have always been in the first division. He has developed many a good player. We wish him all the success in the future years. Ping Row: Nelson, Shannon, Pavletich, Kuglitsch, Mr. Sonnenberg,-Coach.

The team was young and as the year pro- gressed played a better brand of ball, using more teamwork and greater accuracy in shooting. In the past, Coach Ray Sonnenberg has developed much varsity material -and this year is no exception. His job is a hard one, a task that he performs with know-how, understanding, and experience.
