JUNIORS Their number is small, but their accomplishments have been many. They have proved themselves to be skilled tumblers .good students and willing to cooperate. Here’s success to the class of 1936! OUR CLASS NOV --BUT NOT FOREVER Our play has begun; and as each member of the class of 1936 makes his entrance into the world,he unconsciously presents his ovm characteristics to the rest of us standing in the wings. Whenever I think of Earl, there comes a picture of a dilapidated Chevy tearing dov n the road before a cloud of dust, speeding up at the sight of a corner, and rounding it on one wheel;while the passengers inside sit with eyes bulged out, mouths wide open, and every hair on end. With Frederick comes the slow, lazylike, sovithem drawl; the broad grin;and the black-rimmed glasses;while his sister Erma.good-naturedly giggles the hours away. With Stanley, comes the picture of airplanes, and vice versa. He would make a good-looking pilot, thougli-don’t you think so? Arnold Clements,the happy-go-lucky soul, without a care or a worry in the world.wouldn’t move if a bomb was put under him, unless,maybe-there was a little blue-eyed girl waiting for him. With Henrietta, comes the picture of an old white-haired lady with a spinning wheel. If it hadn't been for the former-we'd never have seen the latter. 'With Ruth Ender—comes Wilbur. One is seldom seen without the other. Normy Nelson, with his blond waves, athletics,and a girl with every season,makes a typical American boy; while his pal, Don—well, I believe he’ll become a millionaire some day with his new invention of a way to take the shells off of peanuts without making any noise,ard putting them in your mouth v ithout using your hands. Maynard Grasby always seems to have a bright saying for every occasion, but I think he’ll settle down and become an author someday;don't you?

SOPHOMORES Undoubtedly, the future success in our athletics, lies in the hands of this Sophomore class. They not only acquired the interclass Basket Ball Championship, but also took first place in the Volley Ball Tournament. Along with their athletic abilities they have proved themselves to be good musicians, able scholars, and willing to cooperate no matter how difficult the task. Luck to you—class of 19371 TWENTY-FIVE YEARS FROM NOW How do you do, ladies and gentlemen? This is Rill Wog-ers, bringing you the daily Who’s who program from station WIND. I just came from the Grand Opera House where I saw enacted that fine opera, Hans and Gretel . As I expected,the leading lady was Miss Dolly Steenson,and her partner was Glenn Thomas. They gave a stirring portrayal of those famous characters, Hans and Gretel . During the intermission,I had the good fortune of hearing the Philadelphia Philharmonic Orchestra under the able direction of that rising young maestro, Mr. William Sylvester. By the way, this famous director is said to have gotten his start as the leader of a pep-band in his high school days. I heard much comment on the piccolo player, and upon closer observation I saw Miss Lucille Storandt in that position.

FRESHMEN The freshman class have shown themselves to be worthy of honorable recognition. The end of every six weeks, found a great number of them named on the honor roll. Their grand showing in forensics promises to yield future success. Here’s to the class of 19381 14 Back Row: Milton Scnwier, Marlon Schwier, Ralph Miller, Harley Olsen, Forman Kelson, George Nelson.

The tie was caused by darkness in the first Galesville game; but the team took the second game by a shut out so everyone was satisfied. This year the inter-class tournaments were enlarged from Just basketball to basketball, volleyball, diamondball and probably track. The basketball championship was won by the Sophomores after an exciting overtime game with the Juniors. In volleyball the Sophomores and Seniors were the final survivors of the tournament and they played a three game series to determine the champions. In the first set of three games, the Sophomores won by a narrow margin. The second set was taken by the Seniors by the same narrow margin. The final games, probably the most exciting of all, consisted of tv o overtime games, with the Sophomores winning this championship also. In dianondball the Seniors played the Juniors for the championship and finally succeeded in winning the series. It is still doubtful whether there will be an interclass track tournament this year, but perhaps if there is the Seniors will have a chance to tie the Sophomores for the Sweepstakes. 17 XZXtzzsaZ GIRL S ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION The G.A.A. at their first meeting of the year elected officers who were: President-----------------------Ruth Schwartz Vice President-----------------Wilma Goedecke Secretary--------------------Dorothy Peterson Treasurer---------------------Jennie Griswold The point system had been greatly changed from that of former years and to acquaint the members with the new form the president read and explained these changes. The G.A.A. constitution was formally accepted by the Students’Teachers' Co mcil during November. Alice Griswold was elected as the G.A.A. delegate. Basket-Ball tickets were again sold by the G.A.A. members. Because Hariette Schwartz sold the most tickets she was exempt from dues the second semester as a reward. She also received last year’s prize. At our November meeting Hr. Nelson presented a talk on Basket-Ball. He explained all the .phases of the sport, and tried to create a true interesting basket-ball. A committee.consisting of Ruth Schwartz, Erma Tauscher, Florence Steenson and Dorothy Peterson had charge of the pep meeting which preceded the Kolir.en game. OUR CLASS NOV.r--BUT NOT FOREVER -Cont’d.from page 12 smile or two for all. Huchie is always all muddled up , and it would take more than Einstein to read his writing. The picture of Ha 'Waldorf as she pulled Pa's ear in ’Winners All should have been snapped. V.re may never see anything like that again----(I mean with those two together). Then there’s our demure little Elizabeth who doesn't say much of anything till school's out at four. Dorothy Peterson's going to be a famous athletic teacher some day-just wait and see. Arlin-with his little water-gun played plenty of tricks in the back of the room for about a v eek. I wonder what became of it then? Wouldn't it be funny if Ralph Hiller's hair would suddenly change to the color of Lorene's,and vice versa? I'm afraid Ralph's might,if he keeps on worrying about geometry the way he does. But our Babbo is the best little sport in the class.Lillian Garbers.although she may be bashful, is a friend to all she meets. Last, and least, comes ’lolly . Nobody knows how her jaws ached when ’Vinners All was finally over and she could spit out her forty-eight cud of gum. Our play has just begun,but it continues to roll on and on throughout our lives, until each person in his own way, makes his exit. 18 Clarinets Kenneth Storandt Norman Nelson Esther Hemker Stanley Christopherson Donald Miller Ralph Cullmann Elvera Tauscher Walter Batzel La Verne Denison Harold Hetland Stanley Sherman James Holy Beverly Mau Marian Lahus Ruby Rhodes Teddy Hulberg Truman Stelloh John Wolthers Trombones Raymond Diekroeger Richmond Griswold Harvey Miller Donald Sprain Cornets Robert Mau Henry Paustian Donald D.

WINNINGS OF THE AGRICULTURE JUDGING TEAKS Boys from the agriculture department walked off with three silver cups, two purple banners and one second place banner in the annual Wisconsin state Agricultural judging contests held at Madison October fifth and sixth, nineteen thirty-four. Six teams of nineteen boys made the Madison trip v ith their instructor N.IT.Rowe, and did their work so efficiently that 'West Salem was mentioned more tines on the award lists than any other school in the state. 22 The poultry team won the cup for the second consecutive time, but must secure it again in 19 5 to win permanent possession of it. The sweepstake cup for poultry and eggs also was won by the West Salem school. A purple banner accompanied the cup. A cup and purple banner also was given the school for winning the dairy products sweepstakes. In addition to the cup award, the West Salem boys were first in butter judging for the eighth consecutive time, second in cheese judging, fourth in milk judging, and second in meat judging. Harold Jandt was fourth in the individual meat judging contest, 118 boys being entered. Donald D.filler was seventh and Hilton Schwier was ninth. In the individual Dairy products judging contest Willard Schomberg was third; Maynard Grasby sixth; and Lyle Vogel tenth. Lawrence Hiller and Earl Rhodes were fifth and sixth, respectively, in the individual poultry judging contest. The third member of this team was Harvey Miller. The livestock team included Marlon Schwier, Willis Miller, and Ralph Hiller. The team was sixth in judging all classes of livestock. In fat classes, West Salem was fourth, and in the Holstein special the team was third. The potato team composed of Norbert Boerneke, Walter Batzel, and Raymond Vick placed eighth. The butter team was coached by Fred Stelloh.buttermaker of the West Salem creamery. The boys on the team express their appreciation to Mr. Stelloh for assisting them. The three silver cups and banners won by the teams are on display at the West Salem High School. DAIRY PRODUCTS TEA].: GOES TO AMERICAN ROYAL This year our dairy products team consisting of Lyle Vogel, ’Willard Schomberg and Maynard Grasby represented the vocational agricultural High Schools of 'Wisconsin in judging milk at the American Royal, Kansas City, Mo. October 22-26. The judging contest at the American Royal allows the entry of one team from each state, selected from high schools with a vocational agriculture department The West Salem team was chosen to represent Wisconsin because it won first place in dairy products judging at the state-wide contest. The team placed twelfth in milk judging with thirty states entered. West Salem did not expect to judge poultry, but Hr.Sas-man advised Mr. Rowe that two members of the West Salem team could judge in the poultry contest as a poultry team from Wisconsin. After a conference with the boys,Lyle Vogel and Maynard Grasby made up the team for Wisconsin. This team placed seventh in judging Rhode Island Reds and eighth inWhite Leghorns. The team and Mr. Rowe were guests of the Milwaukee Road for the entire trip. 23 DRAMATIC CLUB Top row,left to right:Jane Leicht.Richmond Griswold.Florence Steenson, Marlon Schwier, Ardith MeEldowney.Glenn Thomas, Wilma Goedecke, Wilbur Hauser, Ruth Ender, Beatrice Hanson, Albert Blackburn, Jennie Griswold, Leonard Roselle, Theodore Hulberg.

A Speech unit was conducted in all English classes in which every student studied one phase of Forensics. Five choices were offered: Extemporaneous Reading, Oratory, Extemporaneous Speaking, Humorous Declamation, Dramatic Declamation. Interclass contests were then held from which two students of each class were chosen in all the events to represent their class in the local contest; however, no student was compelled to speak at any more than the interclass contest. From the local contest.Raymond Diekroeger was chosen to represent the school at the Onalaska Coulee Conference Forensic Meet in Extemporaneous Speaking;Alice Griswold,in Dramatic Declamation; Richmond Griswold,in Oratory;Esther Hemker, in Extemporaneous speaking; Beatrice Hanson,in Humorous Declamation. Alice Griswold, who received first place, again spoke, this time representing the Coulee Conference at the La Crosse District Meet. TWENTY-FIVE YEARS FROM NOW - Continued from page 13 At the close of the opera I ran into my old friend Raymond Vick, who is feeling as spry as a cinch-hug in a glass of cider. He is running a dairy-farm near Philadelphia. As we were conversing about old times,we heard a great commotion in the street and upon looking, we saw thousands of people cheering that famous tight-rope walker and flag-pole sitter, Mr. Thomas Spacek. His Job seems to agree with him, for he has gained a bit of weight since I last saw him. We will pause briefly for station announcements. This is station WIND, operating on nine-hundred kilo-cycles. If you are interested in a square deal for everybody, vote for the Honorable Millman Mengelt for mayor of Philadelphia. Flash: Our old friend Lawrence (Swish) Miller,one-time playboy and now a ball player,has Just been bought by the Chicago Cubs for $75,000. He has been with the Giants for the last four seasons. He was quite a hero at the last world series games, striking out sixteen men in one game for the Giants. I suppose his catcher Kerby Lee,had something to do with his success. By the way.Ervin Elliot happens to be with the Cubs also as a bat boy! My old friend, Mr. Albert Blackburn, Senator from Wisconsin, tells me that the latest tea-party gossip has it that Miss Lois Ann Johnson is about to be married to some relative of the ball-playing Lawrence Miller. Here’s something for you ladies: Get your next permanent wave at Fanny Vogel’s Beauty Salon, whose v orst is the best’. Well,the clock tells me that my time is about up. I’ll be back with you tomorrow evening at this same time v ith some more gossip fresh from the bridge table. So long........ 27 HOME-ECONOMICS CLUE The Hone-Economics Club was reorganized at the beginning of this school year. The forty members elected the following officers. President-----------------------Elizabeth Oldenburg Vice-President---------------Evelyn Ehlo Secretary---------------Elizabeth Ender Treasurer-------------------Erma Tauscher Gifts were exchanged at a Christmas Party held Dec. 19, 1954. The entertainment included games and a fine program. A fashion operetta, The Suzanne Shop ,was given to the public March 6. Every member took part in this operetta. The cast included: Madame Suzanne----------Lois Ann Johnson French Maid------------------Jane Leicht Eliza Jane---------------Lucille Storandt Mrs. Kipeak---------------Thelma Anderson Lenore Hipeak--------------Dolly Steenson Anne Hipeak---------------------Elizabeth Oldenburg The remaining members acted as models. Madame Suzanne explains to her niece, Eliza Jane that through the knowledge obtained by studying home Economics at school she har been able to open her dress shop. The Kipeaks—Mrs., Lenore, and Anne--are very disgusted with the shopping, but upon seeing the models of the Suzanne Shop , they immediately recover from fatigue and enter wholeheartedly into a vigorous campaign of buying. PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB Mr.Nelson has again undertaken tne introduction of something new; he has initiated a photography class. As the name suggests, the purpose of the class is to learn tne principles of photography-how to take pictures,how to develop negatives and prints, and to learn the chemistry which pertains to it. After having been given formulas, the nine members mix their own Chemical solutions. They first built pin-hole cameras by means of which they took time exposures. These they developed in the dark room which they, themselves, made and equipped so that at any time they might work at their prints. The students who are members of this class include: Stanley Christopnerson, Fay Cullman, Ralph Cullman, Albert Larsen, Norman Motchenbaker, Norman Nelson, Leonard Roselle, Henry Schmeckpeper, Bill Sylvester. After this class has had time to develop, big results will be expected. 28 DIRECTORY 1933 Marie Heider---------------------------------------------Teaching Robert McEldowney----------------------------Attending W.B.U.
