The year was full of mischief but we settled down enough to elect Joe Ketterhagen, president, john Sauerberg, vice president, and Nancy Fardy, secretary and treasurer. We also chose Karen Eames, Evelyn Miller, and Dean Tucker as our repre- sentatives on the Student Council. Our advisers were Mr. Buckingham and Mr. Thayer. XX'e'survived the year and even managed to win third place in the float contest of the Homecoming parade. In our sophomore year we were still one of the smallest classes in the school, but we didn't show it in the way we participated in many activites. We started the year right by electing Wally Fetherston, president, Bruce johnson, vice presidentg jane Cox, secretaryg and Marlous Biersach, treasurer. Miss Maerzke and Mr. Hall were our advis- ers. We surprised the upper classmen by winning second place with our Homecoming float and we also sponsored a mixer after one of the football games. A smaller class returned for the junior year at City High. We were upperclassmen at last and we were determined to make an impression on the freshmen and sophomores. XVe chose Dean Arnold for our president and Prom King, Janis Didricksen, vice presi- dent, David Williams, secretary, and Valborg Suby, treasurer. We were well represented on the Student Council by Frank Mayer, Karen Coburn, and jane Cox. April 24th was the big day-THE PROM. We were so excited we had butterflies in our stomachs. Dean chose Janis Didricksen for his queen. April in Paris was the theme with the gym beautifully decorated in purple, silver, and pink. Wally Fetherston received the spade and Evelyn Miller the spoon. Ken Lein and David Williams were our representatives at Badger Boys' State and Karen Eames at Badger Girls' State. Early in September fifty-four seniors returned to the halls of City High for the last time. We started the year off by electing these officers: John Sauerberg, president, Mar- jorie Schonath, vice president, Karen Eames, secretaryg and Karen Coburn, treasurer. Our representatives on the Student Council were Bruce Davis, Dean Arnold, and Harold Smith. In November we presented our class play, Meet Me in St. Louis. We owe its success to our director, Miss Geneva Marking. Joy Keniston was picked from our class to receive the D. A. R. award. Harold Smith was selected as the most valuable football player. We were well represented in football throughout the football season. The girls in the class were also sports-minded because three of them, Evelyn Miller, Janis Didriksen and Nancy Fardy were A team cheerleaders. They, with the help of the other cheerleaders, kept up the spirit at all the games and also at the pep meetings. During the year we sponsored a mixer and also a donkey basketball game to help raise money for our Canada trip. Everyone seemed to have fun at the game, but a few people were slightly stiff afterwards. The last week of school is the busiest of all for the seniors. This week includes Baccalaureate, Award Night, and Graduation. On the fifth of june the seniors will all be together for the last time as we leave on our trip to Canada. Our advisers, Miss Christen and Mr. Fritz, carried us through our last year without many difficulties. This concludes four hectic but pleasant years of school and friendships for all of us. We hope that our friendships will continue. FOUR YEARS IN PARADISE D. ARNOLD M. Til FIRSACH Y.

We hope that not only now but in the years to come it will bring back fond memories of the past school year at City High. Our deepest appreciation goes to Miss Maerzke, our advisor. Also our thanks go to the faculty who were often inconvenienced by our picture-taking schedules, to the students who prepared the copy, the photographers, printers, engravers, and others who helped make this book possible.

Ellis Thursday, November 19, l953, was the date of the senior class play, Meet Me in St. Louis. The play revolved around the four Smith daughters who never allowed their parents or brother, Lon, a moments re- laxation as everything they touched turned to trouble. The play required elaborate costuming and staging and the manner in which it was produced was a credit to everyone concerned. The cast and staff follow: Mr. Smith . . Mrs. Smith .. Rose Smith ,.

'lilt4l'S2l4'll A good percentage of our students, both in junior and senior high school, are par' ticipants in one or more of the vocal music groups. This year the Senior Choir consisted of fifty-eight members. It made its first appearance in the Armistice Day program where it presented a short concert before Father Berry's talk. The Girls' Glee Club, which is composed of forty-six members, sang in various concerts throughout the school year and also in the spring concert festival. The junior choir sang at the Christmas Concert. This group contains much promising talent. The annual Christmas Concert was presented on December 18, 1953, at 8:00 p. m. ln addition to traditional music, the choir presented selections from the Nutcracker Suite. Vocal soloists for this concert were Marian Ellis and Marlous Biersach with joan Pior featured on a ballet number. On February 22, fourteen of our choir members attended Mass Choir which was held at Fort Atkinson. This choir was directed by Mr. Weston Noble from Luther College in Decorah, Iowa. Several members of the choir entered the solo contest which was held on April 3. I954. The Spring Band and Choir festival was held on May 8, 1954, and in this festival the Senior Choir sang in Class Ag and Girls' Glee Club in Class B. Miss Mary Hansen is the director of these three groups. Nitletm-11 QP T' 77 Savage .Symphony BAND With the formation of a new group this year, known as the Cadet Band, there are now three complete band units in the Whitewater Public Schools: the Senior, junior, and Cadet Band. All three were under the baton of our new director, Mr. Gerald Fritz. The Senior Band again had the pleasure of attending the music festival at Rivet- view Park in Chicago the last part of August. It also appeared at the Wfalworth County Fair. During the halves of the Homecoming game, held on October 16, the band per- formed with many fine maneuvers and formations. On February 5, all the bands took part in a successful midwinter concert. The theme for this concert was Bandcast , All three bands were presented in a very un- usual and interesting manner. Q On April 3 the annual solo contest was held with Wfhitewater as the host. Several of our members participated in this event. April I0-12 the concert band journeyed by a streamlined train to Mound, Minneso- ia, where it stayed overnight and played a concert on Palm Sunday. Sunday night was spent in Minneapolis. The whole trip proved to be a wonderful experience. On May 8 the annual band tournament was held here with over twenty bands tak- ing part. Our band played in Class A again this year. The band elected these members as officers: President Karen Coburn Vice President , Nancy Fardy Secretary Karen Eames Treasurer .

Shrnble- We were again a young, inexperienced team at the start of the season, having lost 19 lettermen by graduation. However, as the season progressed, with a lot of hard work the boys turned into a fine team and played a terrific brand of ball in their last game of the season with Delavan. Hightlights of the season were Smith and Riley, Stones fast running, and the savage defense play of Reese, Hanson, Socwell, Paynter, and Bruce Davis. Hard-charging line play was shown by Tucker, Nelson, Lein, Becker, and Sweno. At the end of the season Bob Paynter was elected to the All-Conference lst team as an end, and Harold Smith, a back, and Bruce Davis, a center, were selected to the All-Conference 2nd team. Wayne Tucker was elected captain for '54 and Harold Smith was selected as the most valuable player of '53. A lot of credit for the fine improvement of the team should go to Coach Crummey and his three fine assistants: Ray Buckley, Paul Tilleson, and jack Puffer.

Riley The start of the 1953-54 basketball season found a fairly inexperienced team on the floor with Ron Socwell the only senior on the squad. However, the boys quickly rounded into shape and became one of the best ball clubs City High has ever seen, with its fine record of ll wins and 5 losses. At the end of the season we were invited to the Beloit tournament where we lost to Beloit, then beat Burlington, and then lost the con- solation title to Elkhorn. At the end of the season the Whippets high scoring guard Ken Kayser was selected for the all-conference first team. He also placed second in the conference in scoring with 276 points. Ron Socwell and Bob Paynter received hon- orable mention on the all-conference team. The squad was under the direction of Coach Crummey. Nov. 17 Home Whitewater 51 . . . .

WOfk-IJLIFS were held in the gym until the weather permitted the teams to get out of doors, 1' Enthusiasm for track continued to build up this year and once again the Wliite- water Relays commanded a great deal of attention with schools from great distances competing. An extensive baseball schedule was worked out with schools in our league with XXfhitewater playing eight games. The golf team, captained by Bob Underwood, was made up of new material in- cluding Willie Ambrose, Richard Reese, Arnold Becker, Dean McKenzie, Jim Bisbee, and Steve Moksnes. Since the Aqualba goes to press early in April, that precludes any possibility of reporting on the results of the season. l':lg' Twenty-Five Men U Ironf' W CL Back Row: Mr. Crummey, II. Davis, li.

It is composed of boys who have earned letters in athletics. To earn a letter a boy must have earned 200 uoints. Points are iven accordin to the number of uarters a bo artici ates in an l 8 S Cl Y P Y of our sports. It is definitely known that Mr. Crummey is the sponsor and not so definitely known that there are some officers. Their identity seems to be veiled in secrecy but it is ru- mored that Harold Smith holds the office of president and Ronnie Socwell the office of vice president. Since there are no meetings to create minutes, and dues are prac- tically nonexistent, there seems to be no need for a secretary-treasurer. The boys were successful in persuading their mothers to take over the sale of coffee, hot dogs, candy, etc., for them at the football games and some of these same items were also dispensed at the Armory basketball games.

Shortly thereafter the general student body conducted an election at which time the members of the council were chosen, all boys except for two freshman girls. At the first meeting of the group the following officers were selected: President, Arnold Becker, Vice President, Harold Smith, Secretary, Carol Schultzg Treasurer, jack Shroble. The council was in charge of a number of activities during the year. Among these were the directing of the Homecoming Parade and entering a float, locker inspection, furnishing records and record players for all mixers, organizing with College High for the New Year's dance, furnishing the tree and ornaments for the halls at Christmas, continuing the suggestion box in the study hall, carrying on noon hour activities for those who stay at school during the noon hour, and presenting Council Capers which is made up entirely of student talent. Something new this year was experimented with on March 18 when the student body tried Lady and Gentleman Day . Everyone wore dress clothes and made a special effort to be ladies and gentlemen for the entire day. The council, which meets once a month, is under the direction of Mr. Buckingham.

Staff As in the past, the City High Line was published monthly and distributed to each student free of charge. In addition to the staff members above, forty-two students served as reporters and artists. Mr. Kendall Finger was the adviser. Students in the advanced typing class typed the hand-written articles in preparation for stencil typing. For the first three issues all of these student had a chance to type stencils. Thereafter, theistencil typists listed above were selected on the basis of the work done on the early issues. Staff members learned how to draw illustrations, put on headlines, and operate the mimeograph. Each month we benefited by previous mistakes and attempted to put out a consistently better paper. On October ll, the editors attended the Annual High School Editors' Conference held at the University of Wisconsin in Madison. The annual sale of pom-pons was held before Homecoming, and the staff sponsored a mixer early in thezschool year, , On April 29, the staff members and Mr. Finger attended a banquet held at the Sterlingworth Hotel. This event was the climax of a successful and enjoyable year. Pa ge Twenty-Nine DEBATE F ORENSIF S The Cnncincing Wordv Standing: Miss Burgchardt, M. Shroble l Sitting: D. Monn, D. Harley, D. Arnold, B. Davis, K. Eames The debate question for this year was: Re- solved: That the President of the United States should be elected by the direct vote of the people. Debate was directed by Miss Burgchardt. Members of the debate squad were David Harley, Mary Ann Shroble, Bruce Davis, Karen Eames, Dean Arnold, and Dorothy Monn. Debates were held only within the group this year. The question proved to be a timely and inter- esting one and all the members enjoyed participat' ing in it. An encouraging number of students participated in the schoo1's spring forensics program under the direction of Miss Ruth -Burgchardt. Because there Page Thirty . were so many entries, there was a school elimination contest on March 2nd and 3rd. The following students went on to the league contest at East Troy on March 15, 1954: Marjorie Schonath, Nancy Fardy, Karen Eames, Marian Ellis, Patricia Honohan, Dean Arnold, Richard Scharine, Ken Lein, Martha Stevenson, Alice Quinn, Karen Coburn, and Evelyn Miller. The following winners went to Fort Atkinson for the district contest. Karen Coburn, Nancy Far- dy, Evelyn Miller, Marjorie Schonath, Dean Arnold, Ken Lein, Marian Ellis, and Bruce Davis. Of this group Marjorie Schonath received an A at the district contest and went on to the state contest which was held in Madison on April 10, 1954. ff 77 Take A Letter F B L A Back Row: B. Lyrn, Il.

Membership requirements for the first semester enabled anyone to be a member who was enrolled in a business subject. Beginning the second semester, however, mem- bers were required to maintain a C average in their subjects in addition to be- ing enrolled in a business subject. A project originated last year, and continued this year by the FBLA, was the school savings bank, which was open to all students on Mondays. On March 12, the group sponsored a Hillbilly and Hobo Dance and awarded prizes to those who best exemplified the theme. Another project undertaken was il candy sale.
