EDITORS Ruth Fauska Betty Anderson BUSINESS EDITOR Karen Creviston ADVISERS Mr. Perry Miss Bartol Dear Mom and Dad, Remember all the fun we have had on picnics, fishing and sightseeing? These experiences have be- come a part of our lives. Not only do we remember the good times that we have had together as a family, but we also re- member the many times during our school years when we thought our problems were too great to overcome - but you were always there to help and guide us. You have always been ready to see that we got to school activities no matter what inconvenience to you. For these reasons we dedicate the 1959 WILTONIAN to you -- Our Parents. Gratefully yours.

Now is the only time you own; Live, love, toil with a will; Place no faith in ‘tomorrow,’ for The clock may then be still. CLASS POEM The years have gone swiftly by Here at Wilton High. We leave this poem in memory Of all the things that are to be. Allan Martin, a handsome lad. Leaving school will make him glad. Around the town he does drive To be a truck driver he will strive.

We are all getting together for our class reunion. The first one to arrive is Leanne Anderson. She is now a nurse at Madison General Hospital and has married Ronnie. Soon Thomas Schindler and Jim O’Rourke arrive. Tom is an archery teacher and Jim is a professor at the Universtiy of Wisconsin. The rest of the class joins us and we learn that Karon Zuhlke is now a secretary at the newspaper office. She always did like working on the newspaper. Sharon O’Gara is a beautician and owns “Sharon’s Beauty Salon.” David Dunnum and Helen Phalin are married. We always figured something would come of that romance. Dave is a Nash Rambler salesman. Rosalia Hemmersbach is married to her “one and only” and has a good start on those forty kids she always said she was going to have. We are all startled by a terrible commotion in the entrance and needed only one guess to know who it is, of course, Dick Kruse and Allan Martin. Dick is the owner of a hotel in Chicago. Allan has taken over the Martin Trucking Company, and is earning lots of money to support his wife and ten children. Jim Cox has his own farm and is now looking for someone to do his housework, permanently. Karen Creviston is a model. She liked acting sophisticated in the Junior Class Play so thought with her red hair she might be able to go places. Her picture will be in the next month’s issue of “Life.” A grade school teacher was the profession Janet Liefke chose. She also has several children of her own to teach. Anyone who likes to watch horse races should visit the famous Wilde Race Tracks.” It is now better known than the Kentucky Derby. Rodney has really made a name for himself. Delores Creviston has married Norman and is traveling around the world. The U. S. has just sent up a new space missile designed by Peter Kruse. He has made one that will take us to the moon, finally. We were very honored to have the “First Lady” attending our reunion. Alice Wendland invited us all to the White House when we get to Washington, D. C. Dr. Roger Von Haden gave us his card in case we ever needed him. Someone made the bright comment that we'd probably never need him again if we used his card once. CLASS PROPHECY Raymond Saxby is the leader of a 76 trombone orchestra. He, also, has a T. V. show. Shirley Boerst is now living in Milwaukee with Willie, whom she married right after graduation. Willie is a scientist so they are trying out many new experiments together. We were surprised to see them come in alone, because they have five children now. As our reunion comes to a close we wonder where the next ten years will find us.

The Forensic Club this year, under the chairmanship of Harlan Englerth, spent most of it’s time preparing for the district meeting which was held on March 24. Although the most popular divisions, according to Rosalia Hemmersbach, the secretary of the organization, seems to be play reading and interpretative reading, students have also shown interest in the original oratory and four minute speeches. Under the tutelage of Mrs. McCarthy and Mrs. Smith, the club advisers, the members of Forensics hope to earn enough points at the district contest to enable them to participate in the state tournament.

Our Future Homemakers of America were really busy this year - making stuffed toys for the child center, sponsoring an all-school Christmas Tea, F.H.A. Demonstration Contest, F.H.A. Rally, concessions at basketball games, degree work, waitressing and setting up for banquets. These were only a few of the activities the girls carried on. Our National Project was Families Together, for which we sponsored an All-Family night and compiled booklets of games and other recreation that families could do together. All in all it was a busy but fun-filled year. F. F. A. ROW ONE: Wayne Pasch, Glen Simonson, Roger Von Haden, Mr. Smith, Harlan Englerth, Jim Cox.
