In the fall of 1949 they entered W.H.S. as worthless tree toads, embarking upon their first year in junior High S'chool. Since that day this class has advanced steadily toward the goal of ever- helpful education. In the eighth grade as puddle jumpers they were already begin- ning to advance. As Freshmen they were improving their minds. As Sophomores in their first year in senior high, they got to sit in the balcony in the auditorium during assemblies. Then as juniors they were looked up to by underclass- men and were approaching the ma- turity of the Senior Class. MARGARET AITK Leading the Senior Class were Bill McKnight, Presidentg Sally Hedrick Secretary Don Mason, Vice President. EN, Die Bene RITA ALBERDING, Philo SONDRA ALBERTSON, Philo ,ss Kress I0 The highlights of the Class of '55 began with the Senior Lunch- eon followed by the Senior Play, Senior B a n q u e t, junior-Senior Prom, and ended with what all Seniors look forward to, graduation. During these many years new faces were added to the throng while familiar ones were taken away, but these 174 candidates for graduation were once eager first graders looking forward to gradu- ating from W.H.S. as the Class of '55.

GARTH SNODGRASS Right Halfback HIGHLIGHTS OF 1954 Most people believe the Vikings played their best games against Ark City and Hutchinson. Although the Vikes lost both games they showed a lot of spirit. When they were behind they would always keep fighting back. Had it not been for two long desperate passes by Ark City the Vikings would have won. Winfield made several goal line stands. Against Hutchinson the Vikings played a very good defensive game. Winfield led 6-0 at the half but got a few bad breaks in the second half and lost 12-6. The only game Winfield won all sea- son was a 32-0 wallop over Columbus. Byron jones, guard, and Sam Brown, halfback, were chosen co-captains of the year by the team. After the season the Winfield Elks Club gave a banquet for all the squad members. Winfield ended its 1954 season with one victory and nine defeats. .r . ...JL SAM BROWN Quarterback ALBERT YEAGER Right End JACK EASTMAN 70 MARION MAY Left End Right Tackle VARSITY SEASON'S RECORD Columbus ........

It is the first valley title the Vikings have won in 12 years. The last time they won was in 1943, and then they had to share it with Newton. The only loss was a 46-50 defeat at the hands of the Hutchinson Salthawks. Most exciting game of the season was the 54-46 victory over the Newton Railroaders, a game they had to win in order to clinch the Ark Valley Championship. Toward the end of the third quarter, Dick Powell and Don Blizard became confused when Don broke down the court and Dick Viking Clarence Palmer, No. 22, picks up Newton's jim Allen following a rebound during the Winfield-Newton game played january 29 at Lindley Hall, Newton.
