Success . . Anticipation - Thanks to school team work, an- other space in our trophy case was filled by the Calumet Conference foot- ball trophy. This trophy, as all other Wirt tro- phies, represents the hard work and cooperation of the team, students, coaches, and faculty. The team played hard to win the conference, realizing their highest aspirations, and bringing home the trophy for the first time since T948. Wirt students can well be proud of this trophy symbolizing school unity and effort.
