Out of the number a staff is selected by Miss Maerzke and the work of put- ting the book together begins. The taking of pictures starts and assignments are made in preparing the art work and write-ups. As the date for going to press draws near there is increased activity all along the line with a mad rush at the end to finish on time.

Thayer, B.S. Agriculture Adviser To F.F.A. and Freshman Class g Jw SENIGRS Mm-A On September 6, 1946, a class of freshmen numbcring sixty-six entered City High School. The offi- cers chosen under the guidance of Miss Krause and Mr. Wyse were Ralph Frisco, president, Rusty Fero, vice-president, and Donna Cooper, secretary-treasurer. Many of our number were found in extra-curricular activities. A new organization known as the junior Cheerleading Club was made up almost entirely of freshmen girls. Ray Steck became a senior cheerleader. Our sophomore year found us with the reputation of the do nothingn class. At our first class meet- ing we chose Jack Platner as president: Bud Ardelt, vice-president, and Ernie Regelein, as secretary- treasurer. We did manage to enter a float in the Homecoming parade, but it was agreed that it would win only a booby prize. As we began one of our most important years in high school Miss Kanable was appointed to serve as adviser, along with Mr. Wyse. Ernie Regelein was elected president, with Bud Ardelt as vice-president and Lucille Nowak as secretary-treasurer. Our first big thrill was selecting class rings. The junior class was active in athletics, band, choir, G.A.A., F.F.A., Hi-Y, forensics, newspaper and debate. Pat Pie- per and Shirley Elphick did their share of keeping the cheerleading going. The class sponsored several mixers, among them a novelty, the Soc Hop. In April came the annual Junior Prom. the biggest event of the year. The theme, Stairway to the Starsji was effectively carried out, with King Ernie Regelein and Queen Lucille Nowak reigning over the event. Dorothy Hill and Bud Ardelt were presented spoon and spade respectively, by the class of 1949. Dorothy Hill attended Badger Girls' State at Madison, while Ray Steck attended Badger Boys' State at Ripon. Finally the last and most important year arrived, with Mr. Hall as class adviser. Jerry Liden, Eloice Loughead, and Red Markham were elected class officers. To the tune of Let's Take an Old Fashioned Walk King Bud Ardelt crowned Dorothy Hill as queen of the 1949 Homecoming. A winter formal, A Dreameris Holiday, was sponsored by the senior class in january. A good time was had by all who attended. Under the direction of Mrs. Gertrude Kuehn, the senior class presented the play, Junior Miss, Judy, junior miss, was ably characterized by Yvonne Enright. The D.A.R. Good Citizen award was given to Edith Rye. The senior class, ardent supporters of the student council, did much toward its organization. The representatives of the class to the council were Edith Rye, Jerry Liden, and Bud, Ardelt, with the latter elected president of the organization. As graduation time drew near, we, the members of the senior class felt a deep regret in leaving the school where we had spent four of the most pleasant years of our lives.

THE JUNIOR CLASS The progressive junior class elected the following slate of officers for 1949-50: President, Harry Ambrose, Vice President, john Adsit, Secretary-Treasurer, Diane Krejci. Under the able guidance of our class adviser, Miss Kanable, we took an active part in school activities, sponsored mixers, donated money toward the new basketball uniforms and helped organize the Student Council. The following were elected to the Student Council representatives: Harry Ambrose, Donna Bak- er, Miriam Chapman, and john Adsitg Vice representatives are Nancy Thayer and Bob Shuman. South Pacific was chosen as the exotic theme for the Junior Prom which was held April 21, with Dave Spot's orchestra furnishing the music. A point system was set up for selecting the Prom court whereby all juniors have an equal chance of being chOSCI1. Judging Will be on the basis of scholastic standing, activities, popularity, personality, and poise. Prom King Harry Ambrose chose Donna Adelman to reign with him as Prom Queen. The Prom clirnaxed a highly successful year for the junior class. FIRST GROUP Top Row: J. Larson, O. Cornelison, B. Shu- man, S. Krahn, B. Sherwood, IJ. Mackie, D. Kelley Second Row: K. Row- ley, K.

Dorsteh THE SOPHOMORE CLASS The sophomore class of 1949-50, with Mr. Garriott as its adviser, elected Jim Fetherston, President, Duane Mason, Vice Presidentg Donna Sherwood, Secretary-Treasurer. There are about sixty-five members in the class which therefore entitled it to three representatives on the Student Council. A few of its activities during the year were sponsoring mixers and candy sales and taking charge of some of the pep meetings. One of the most unique pep meetings presented this year was sponsored by one of th: sophomore English classes. It represented St. Peter and the Devil having a Judgement Day with the Whitewa- ter basketball team and the opposing team as candidates for admission. The class also worked hard on a Home- coming float having the theme We'll Fly Over Burlingtonl' which placed second in the contest. Page Fourteen THE FRESHMA CLASS On September fourth, 1949, one hundred and four freshmen, some big, some small, but all definitely green, entered Whitewater City High. At the first class meeting we elected our class officers: President, Stephen Ambroseg Vice President, Earl Wohlust, Secretary, Rosa Lou Storckg Treasurer, Elizabeth Ann Roe. Our representatives on the student council, newly organized this year, are: Wallace Peterson, Stephen Am brose, Elizabeth Ann Roe, and Marilyn Monn.

'?'T Y 'xl nga at-ravi TIES 'Hein The newly organized student council of City High is a result of a petition circulated during the beginning weeks of school. As school- wide interest was shown, five class officers with Miss Kanable and Mr. james, attended a regular meeting of the Janesville Student Council on October 4. The following day, a general assembly was called to ac- quaint the student body with the operations of a council. The assembly was dismissed to class meetings to elect representatives to draw up a constitution. Representatives, numbering two from each class, included the following: Jerry Liden, Edith Rye, Harry Ambrose, Donna Baker, Delores Chamberlain, Kay Cummings, Steve Ambrose, and Wally Peterson. Copies of the constitution were distributed to the student body on December 12. The constitution was ratified by a unanimous vote of the students. The constitution provides for an election of representatives by classes, according to the population of each class. The following fifteen class representatives were elected to the council: Freshmen: Earl Wohlust, Marilyn Monn, Wally Peterson, Steve Ambrose, Elizabeth Roe, Sophomores: Pat Bartelak, Kay Cummings, Delores Chamberlain, Juniors: Harry Ambrose, john Adsit, Donna Baker, Miriam Chapman. Seniors, Edith Rye, jerry Liden, and Bud Ardelt. Mr. Garriott, the appointed adviser, met with the Council members at the first regular weekly meeting on January 12. The following officers were elected by a secret ballot and compose the executive board. President-Bud Ardelt Secretary-Miriam Chapman Vice president-jerry Liden Treasurer-Harry Ambrose A suggestion box was placed in the study hall as a means of students voicing their opinions and desires for matters to be brought before the Council. The Council through its four standing committees CNoon-hour, Service, Ways and Means, and Publicityb has taken definite steps toward the betterment of our school. Various matters including assembly programs, selection of the Junior Prom and Homecoming Court mem- bers, support of a pep club, and a good citizenship campaign which included locker inspection are only a few of numerous matters which came before the Student Council. The Council also organized and directed a pro- gram for a P.T.A. meeting in March, at which time this group was informed as to the work of the Council. Although it has been in operation for only one semester the student council has done outstanding work. Its organization has been a big and important step toward co-ordinating the students and faculty of City High. , ,A,,.,- Student Council lint-it Row: Mr. Garriott, J. Iiiden, A. Ardelt, H.

It is being distributed to the student body, free of charge, on a monthly basis. The entire production of the paper has been taken over by the staff, as a new mimeoscope and mimeograph machine were purchased for the school. Edith Rye and Genevieve Scharine were the co-editors, with Miss Dorothy Onsager as the adviser. At the beginning of the year there was a volunteer staff of fifty, but after a short time it was narrowed down to a cap- able and workable staff of about thirty-five. In addition to its news stories there were illustrated covers, senior and cadet interviews, sports, activity news, gossip, fashions, announcements, and creative writing by City High students. The staff also took charge of the production of programs for the speech class play and the annual choir concert, as well as duplicating copies of the Student Council Constitution. The newspaper was supported through a school fund designated for that purpose. Other miscellaneous expenses were financed by the candy and pom pom sale at Homecoming. Page Nineteen THE BAND The City High School Band had another successful year under the direction of Mr. C. A. Part. lt had a part throughout the year in many high school assemblies and athletic events, and gave excellent musical train- ing to many grade and high school students. On October 14, which was our Homecoming, the band, in dress uniform, led the parade through town and paraded on the athletic field between halves forming a B for Burlington and a for Wliitewziter. A pep band, made up of a selected group of musicians, played at football and basketball games throughout the year. A junior band was reorganized this year to give younger musicians experience. It had a membership of about forty or fifty. On January Sl the grade and high school students were entertained by a band concert. Some of the special numbers during this concert were a mirimba solo by Kay Spuhler, and a comet solo by Diane Krejci. On February 20 ten members from our band played in the Mass Band concert which was held at Lake Mills, with Dr. Sarig, director of the University of Wisconsin band, conducting. During the spring months the band spent a great deal of time on selections for the Music Festival, held again in Wliitewater with City High as the host school. I'up:v Twenty 2.

They are the mixed chorus which has fifty-three members and the newly organized girls' chorus which has approximately forty members. The boys from the mixed chorus put on a minstrel show at the Armory on Halloween. The two choral groups gave a Christmas concert on December 20. On March 25, various members of the two organizations performed at the Music Festival. ln May, the band and chor- ., -. uses gave a pre-festival concert. Then on May I3 the two groups participated in the Festival. The mixed chorus sang in Class B, and the girls' chorus sang in Class C. The choir is very proud of its new royal blue robes with accessories which made the first public appearance at the March P.T.A. meeting. The vocal music groups are un- der the direction of Miss Darlene Schenning. Page '1'wt-zlty-on-,e iii D o Q O O . s .

THE YEAR I REVIEW The Whitewater Chapter of Future Farmers of America, under the advisership of Mr. Thayer, has just concluded a very successful year. There have been many activities which have contributed to the suc- cess of the organization. In the limited space allotted us we will endeavor to outline a few of the high spots in the activities of the F.F.A., to which some or all the members have contributed. Sweet corn project-22 members picked 10 acres of sweet corn in August on the W. T. Roe farm. A profit of S5300 was realized with a little effort and brawn. Fairs-Au ust was the month of fairs. Man members exhibited their cro s, oultr , swine beef, and Y Y , dairy projects at the county and state fairs. An education booth was exhibited at the county and state fairs. An educational booth was exhibited at the Walworth Count Fair. Y 8th Grade Party-just before school started the chapter was host to the Sth grade graduates at the high school. Communit Activities-First, was the lantin of 100 lar e ever reen trees on the cam us, athletic Y field and the cit ark. Milk testin , ermination, and soil tests were made for man farmers. A cow and , Y P S S Y sheep clippers was purchased for use among members and other farmers. 5000 seedling evergreen trees were planted by members in the spring. Trips-The freshmen and sophomores visited the junior Livestock Show at Madison, the juniors and seniors spent a day at the Case Company at Racine, and three judging teams represented the group at Madison in the spring. There were many field trips made during the year to correspond with the class- room study. Money-Every organization needs money to carry on its many activities. Our group started in the red at the beginning of the year. The sweet corn gave us a big boost. The Christmas card sale went over well with 900 boxes sold, while there were many small scale projects that returned profits. Basketball-The group played ten games with other F.F.A. chapters. This was climaxed with a tour- nament here, at which the local boys won the championship. Banquet-A parent-son banquet was the high-light of the activities for the year, with 200 guests pres- ent. A wonderful meal was served by our co-workers, the F.H.A. F.F.A. Public Speaking-All members participated in a chapter contest with Ken Rowley placing second in the district meet. Cooperation-A joint F.H.A. meeting with both Waukesha chapters was a great success with an ex- change of many ideas. A square dancing party was staged in March. The two groups had a mixed quar- tet which placed first at the district contest. Page Twenty-thi ee Top Row: J. Sikowski, J. lrurson, S. Kuhnkt-, S.

This is the first year Whitewater has had an organization nationally known as the Future Homemakers of America. It was organized under the guidance of Miss Billings. The membership is made up of girls who arc- in home economics, or girls who have had one year of home economics. Each member is given the opportuni- ty to earn degrees. These are: Chapter-scroll, junior-lc ey, State-torch, and American-rose. At the beginning of the year the following officers were elected: Carol Ann Bigelow, presidentg Eloice Loughead, vice-presidentg Nancy Houghton, secretaryg and Lois Anderson ,treasurer The officers were installed by the Waukeslizi F.H.A. chapter. The afternoon meetings were held every second Tuesday of the month while evening meetings were held the same nights as the F.F.A., every third Wednesday of the month. For special projects the girls entered a float in the Homecoming parade and sponsored an all-school mixer. Page Twenty-four is iq tj I'- A 435, i.i. A . . -'fi' ,. it ll ' I . Luft to Riprht: C.

The negative team members were Norma Sauerberg and Carol Ludeman. Others out for de- bate were Helen Roselle, Roger Roe, and Janet Sikor- ski. Miss Kanable acted as coach. These teams had a practice debate with College High on january 18, City High winning both deci- sions. The negative team also won a practice debate with Watertown the following afternoon. The Whitewater district debate tournament was held on january 21 at Wisconsin High School in Madison, Wisconsin. The debaters won three out of six debates in competition. As only one of the de- baters was a senior, next year's debate team should be even more successful. I'ag.te Twenty-six ORATORY DRAMATICS Forensics, or spring speech, interested many stu- dents this year. Forensics differs from other activi- ties in that the students participate as individuals rather than as teams or groups as they do in debate and drama contests. - Twenty-five people took part in the local elim- ination contest which included activities in extem- poraneous speaking and reading, oratory, and humor- ous and serious declamatory. The league contest was held at Lake Mills where our contestants received four A's and five's B's. A winners attended the district contest at Fort Atkinson. Anyone receiving an A rating at this contest at- tends the state contest, which is the final contest in the spring forensics. Standing: L. Pester, A. Papcke, R. Steck, R. Fero, J. Liden, J.

Meetings were held on the second and lourth Wednesdays of every month. The Library Club has assisted with the reorganization of the library this year and has set up rules for A its use. Members acted as librarians during study hall periods. On March 24 the Library Club held a pot-luck supper for its members followed by a mixer in the evening for the general student body. PEP CLUB The Pep Club, which is a new organization this year, consists of about 170 members. The object of the club is obvious: to promote pep, good sportsmanship, and school spirit. Any member of the student body may become a member of this club., One of the activities of the club this year was to buy white sweat shirts with WHS PEP written in red across the front. These were first worn at the Beloit Basketball Tournament. The officers of the club are: Preyizient .... . . Dolores Chamberlain Vice Prefirlent . . . ......... Pat Fardy Secremry-Treurzmfefr . . . .

This year City High not only won the SWANI Conference championship, but went undefeated as well. Hats off to a fine team and probably the most successful season in the history of the school. The only blemish on the fine record was the tie with Elkhorn. Much of the credit for a fine season goes to the coaches, who worked hard to get the best possible play out of the boys. Coach Crummey and his assistants, Mr. Garriott and Joe Coletti, did an admirable job. Probably the most exciting game of the year was played at Lake Geneva. The game was undoubtedly a battle for the championship as both teams were undefeated until that time. Played in a downpour which threatened cancellation, Platner threw a pass to Liden who went on to score. It was the only score of the game, with Whitewater winning 7-O. Boys who received letters in football this year were: Bud Ardelt, Ed Booth, john Coleman, Harry Ambrose, Eugene Duerst, Dale Kelley, William Fardy, Charles Hill, Jerry Liden, Ramon Steck, Robert Witt, Robert Shu- man, jack Platner, Roger Wiley, Jay Leland, Lyle Peste r, and Robert Sherwood. t - .A A.. The most valuable play- er award, given by Max Salske, went to Bill Fardy who was also elected. the Captain for 1950. Jack Platner repeated as scoring leader of the SWANI conference.

However, the boys gained needed experience under Mr. MacLachlan's guidance and will no doubt furnish much of the material needed to build up next year's A squad. Top Row: D. Stanley. K. DOKISJIIIS.

Fardy PRI G PORT Since the Aqualba goes to press before spring sports start, it is only possible to make a few brief remarks concerning them. The golf team is a doubtful participant because of a lack of interest, while tennis is greatly handicapped due to a lack of suitable courts. The baseball team, with a good number of experienced veterans to depend upon, should have a very active season. Track again this year has contin- ued to attract renewed interest and to forge ahead as a popular spring sport. Former participants - jack Platner, Charlie Hill, Dale Kelley, Jerry Markham, Jerry Krahn, Boi: Sherwood, Harry Ambrose, jerry Liden, Fritz Dow, and Ed Brown- together with new material should enable City High to develop some very likely material for inter-school competition. treasure. Coach Crummey was the faculty adviser. To be eligible for membership in the W Club a boy must have earned a letter in sports. These letters are given to a boy who has acquired a minimum of 200 points in inter-school competi- tion in athletics.
