I p u DEDICATION We dedicate this annual to the past, --- that those who have gone be- fore us, and are taking part in this world erisis, may know that we have not for- gotten them. The Qpportunity ls Yours Some day when you have ,ae minute to spare, take time to look at the picture and bronze tablet outside th-epart room door. The picture is that of Harry Lloyd Miller, founder and first principal of Wiscoiisiii High School. On the tablet there is a quotation from one of his books, which reads: Education is not bestowedg' it must be everlastingly achieved. Q This sentence represents the- lineart of Mr. Mil1er's educational philosophyg it also represents an ideal for which VVisconsin High School has always stood. As you read it, what should it mean to you, undergraduate students, and to you, seniors of the Class of 1944? It means this: No one can ever force youi to learng you are the learnersg the initiative rests with you. And you learn only in proportion as you want to learn., . We are all proud of our school's tradition of freedom. You have found fewer restraints here than you might have expected to find. You have found a maximum of opportunity to learn-in the classroom and in other school activities. Some misunderstand what we mean by freedom and make questionable use of the opportunities afforded them here. However, all of us, students and faculty, feel that wel learn the most when the stimulus comes from within ourselves and not from little bits of education administered in daily doses+-forced feeding, as it were! Freedom without direction is bad. An orderly freedom, with the learner growing in responsibility and in capacity for self-direction, is our ideal. The practice of this kind of freedom pays richf dividends. Weare proud of you, seniors and undergraduates, when you make wise use of the freedom which' is yours. VVe are doubly proud of our students of other years who are contributing to this hard job of making the world a more decent place. Some day some one will write the history of the part which our boys and girls are playing in the armed forces and as civilians. The story of creditable achievement is already one to make us glad that this is our school. Burr W. Phillips Page Six lst Row: Goldgruber, Henderson, VVeightman, Hendrickson, Eye.

' THE FACULTY The members of the XA7isconsin High School faculty have a twofold task, they must produce good students and at the same time train the participators to be good teachers. As most faculty members will admit, this is a difficult job-both because of ns and because of the participators. The faculty members must be doing their part, however, for Wiscoiisiii High School has a fine record for a school of its size. Mr. Eye has done much to improve our school during his three years as principal. He has two new members of the staff to assist him: Mr. Bent, who with his ever present good humor, executes his duties as assistant principal and director of guidance to the satisfaction of all, and Miss Howdle, our secretary, who handles the intricate affairs of the office very eapably. Mrs. Zaeske continues to conduct the library with her infinite patience and ever- ready smile. The science department is represented by four able and experienced teachers: Miss Wfeber, who teaches her students the secrets of a frog's interior, Mr. Davis, who delves in the mysterious physical world, Mr. Kivlin, who teaches his students how to produce corn, and Mr. Porter who manages to develop brilliant young chemists-malthongh not without some loss of equip- ment judging by the occasional resounding crashes which emanate from the 12:30 chemistry class. Page Seven. In the mathematics department we find Mr. Trump, exponent of higher mathematics-and faithful timekeeper at Wisconsin High games,-and the aviatrix, Miss To-mek. Two new members have joined the mathematics staff: Mr. Bent and Mr. Ainsworth who open up the mathematical world to the aspiring junior high. ' In the language department we find Miss Weightman, who, besides' being dean of girls, manages to make herself very well liked while giving her students a solid foundation of Latin. Her cute cocker spaniel F1opsy, might well be termed the mascot of the school. Miss Laura Io-hnso-n is again teaching Ubuenos dias and bonjour to her students. The language depart- ment also has two new members: Miss Davis, who teaches French, German, and Italian Cin the Universityl without ever mixing them up, and Miss Margetis, who teaches Latin. On the historical side are Miss Falk, whose Cocker spaniel must be the co-mascot of the school, Mr. Phillips, whose quiet, friendly manner has won him many friendsg and Miss Ruth Johnson, kindly mistress of American history. As with all of the staff, .we have very capable English and speech depart- ments. When Miss Springhorn's junior high cabbages have come to a full head, they are taken over by the senior high English teachers who ripen them to maturity. We have Mr. Pooley, co-author of many English text- books, and Miss Hoard whose occasional lapses into a British accent reveal where some of -her training has occurred. Mr. Wedemeyer is the new member of the English department staff, who besides his regular duties is an adviser to the staff of the 1944 WISCONSIN. Miss Borchers, producer of great speakers, is joined in the speech .department by a member of the fighting Irish, Miss Walsh, who has ,charge of all speech and dramatic activities. Judging from the pleasant smells from the home economics rooms we may assume that the Misses Henderson and Hendrickson are doing a good job. The art work in the halls and ins this annual speaks well for Miss Allcott and her students. Mr. Goldgruber finds time to be junior high athletic coach as we-ll as a fine manual arts teacher. Credit for the fine musical perform- ances we have had this year go to our Wisconsin High musicians and their maestro, Mr. Ahrens. Mr. Knapp for the boys and Miss Purves for the girls are the directors of our excellent physical fitness program. As we look back upon our years at Wisconsin High School, we must surely agree that we have had a representative and capable group of teachers for our faculty. V ' Page Eight ..,-3' is! -s ..,.-...

Everyone in the class has had a good time making it a success. The big event of the year was the Senior Swing which scored a real hfit with the school hep catsfi The Senior baby picture contest also was sponsored by the Senior Class. Now we know how our classmates looked in the past! Some of the chuckles that were prompted by the toothless pictures can still be heard in the lower hall if one listens hard, enough. ' During our four years at VVisconsin High School, we have had a grand time working together and with the teachers. We wish to thank the faculty, one and -all, for their constant assistance in all of our activities. It is our sincere hope that all future Senior C'l'asses will be able to look back upon as successful a past as we have had.

Page Thirty-nine Preparation for the Future All sorts of students fill the halls of Vlfisconsin High School. Some shuffle slowly to a waiting math test, so-me gloweringly enter the American history class to find out Why the Civil NVar was fought, and others take the steps two at a time to reach third floor where Mr. Porter may be found disgustedly picking up the pieces of that fnon--D breakable glass he thought he had. p But despite all this lack of enthusiasm for our classes, we do have some wonderful times! Not only the students, but once in a while WC Corral the faculty and youid be surprised at the. good times we have! CThey're not nearly as stilted as yo-u' might be tempted to thinkj Furthermore, the faculty has proven itself invaluable hundreds -of times. It is to them we owe thanks for helping to make our school what it is. Many faculty members, besides teaching their regular classes, have added to their job necessary items that young American should be taught. Aside from bettering our foundations of American hi-story and becoming good neighbors, we find a quantity of elementary navigation and trigonometry invading our routine classes. And if you peek into the art room some Friday morning at about eleven o'clock, you'll find first aid bandages hiding broken arms and. fractured legs. These-helpful and practical co-urses are te-aching us .that we can't graduate from high school and expect the world to be handed to us on a golden platter. No, the youth of today and tomorrow must be alert and practical. It is to this end that our classrooms are con- tributing by sending young men and women into college, and perhaps, basic training with some knowledge off what they may have to study. Being prepared for future work means a great deal to a high school senior. .We thank you, faculty, for preparing us. r- 1 Page F orty 1 Q .Q-fi i 1 Q ...f i l ,.-- 1 , 1- 1 1 1 i.-.-3-: 1 1 6 a -1 1 1.

Each class is represented by one student for every thirty members. Each major interest group is represented by one member of the Council. The Student Council with the help of Miss Hendrickson, organized and planned the hot lunch program. During the past year the Council has planned all school assemblies and has undertaken the responsi- bilities of rewriting the Constitution of the Council. - Page F oerty-tlzrfe lst Row: Miss Falk, Bolger, Donovan, Johnson, Connor, Hauck, Carlson, Conlin, Miss Allcott.

Miss ALco'rT, Miss FALK The purpose of Adelphia is to promote d.ramatics among girls. lfVe study all the fields connected with dramatics since a play can not be given smoothly unless each one does her part. Although we study each part together, those especially interested in one field. follow it further. The third Tuesday of each month meetings are held at the girls' homes. Through this contact and association we benefit by each otheris viewpoints and ideas. We try to assist with school dramatics in any Way we can. Gui' biggest event of the year is a play which the girls select and. produce on their own. Besides our having fun we gain a lot of valuable ex- perience. lVe each will have many happy memories to look back upon when We think of Adelphia.

The club got off to a slow start but with the help of Mr, Goldgruber, the adviser, we finally got well enough organ- ized to have regular meetings. At our first meeting, We had about seventeen boys out. This nunnber has remained. about the same throughout the year proving that the school really has some genuine bowling entlnisiasts. The club not only had Senior High ineinbers but was well represented by the Junior High since about one-third of the inenibership was composed of seventh and eighth graders. The club meets once a Week, on Mondays, at the Pla-inor Alleys and competition is keen since the scores are kept and the averages are compared, The club is represented in the school Council since the Photogs and the Bowling Club jointly elected a council inernber. There are no offices held in, the cl-uzb except that of the club adviser, Mr. Goldgruber. The Bowling Club has had a very successful year and we hope some of the younger members retain their interest in the coming years. Page 'F 01'-ty-five Debate VVisconsin High has again finished a very successful year in de- bating even though we were equipped with a very small squad. How- ever, small as it was, it pro-ved to be exceedingly able in the debate tournaments held throughout the season. The first contest of the year was held at VV est Bend early in No- vember. VVisconsin High won four oubt of six debates to tie with Mayville for first place. The team consisted of: lst Aff. Jane Nether- cut, Znd Aff. Phyllis Crosby, lst Neg. Dorin Daniels, 2nd Neg. Way- land Noland. The tourney probably most of remember was the Invitational Inter- state Debate h-eld at VV.H.S. The teams were divided into junior and senior divisions, with teams from VVisconsin, Illinois, and Iowa participating. In the senior division our team again won first place by winning six out of eight debates. Une of the 'most important contests of the season was the district held at VVisconsin High on January 29. In this tourney VVisconsin High tied with Portage for first place. Each team won five out of six debates. This victory qualified the squad to go on to the State Debate Finals held March 9th and lOth in the State Capitol. The members of the debate team that competed in the Invitational Interstate, the District, and the State Debates were: lst Aff.: JANE NETHERCUT 2nd Aff.: DAVID BECKWITH lst Neg.: PHvLL1s CROSBY 2nd Neg.: VVAYLAND NOLAND Next year the outcomes may prove to be very different from this year's many successes due to lack of debaters. Three mem.bers of the first team gradulated this year, which leaves only one experienced debater on the squad. So coame out next fall and show the colors of VVisconsin High on the debate Hoor as well as on the field, and in the gym.

Miss GLADYs BORCHERS, Miss W ixLsH lVe started the season oft with a dinner given by Miss Borchers at the University Club, Where we met our new Co-adviser, Miss Wfalsh. Tryouts for membership were held soon afterwards. After an initiation that left the new members thoroughly electriiied, the club settled down to its work. This year the debate squad under the able leadership of Miss Walsh has had much success. However, the squad has been more or less separate from the club. Wve conducted interesting programs at each of our meetings. To carry out this plan, we appointed a program committee, with Lois Hei- ronimus as Chairman. ' 'Page F arty-seven Dramatics The room was dark and filled to capacity. In the air was an ex- pectant hush. Suddenly the curtains swung open and beyond lay a scene, the setting for 'a play-one of the many one-act plays which were given at VVisconsin High this year. Plays of all plots and descrip- tions were presented, and all proved to be big successes. The most dramatic play of the season was Riders to the Sea with its eerie plot and gloomy setting. One of the funniest presentations was Grandma Pulls the Stringi' in which Grandma dictated a marriage proposal to a proposing young 'man who was upset enough without any help from Grandima. , The cast and crew of the four-act Tom Sawyer heaved a sigh of relief the night of prodiulction, for even the dress rehearsal was far fro-m being ready for an audience. But the actual production went off without a hitch! A new play, just off Broadway, called Janie was given as the all-school play this year. It was presented March Z5 in the Vlfisconsin Union Theatre, together with music by the schoo-l orchestra. The play was very humorous and successful. The student-teacher directors and actors have done a wonderful job this year. Our thanks go to the stuldient participators, the actors and Miss Wfalsh, the general manager of the clramatics department for the instruction and fun that they have given us.

In order to encourage interest in music, our meetings which are held in thehomes are devoted chiefly to solos, duets, and trios by the members. Our purpose is to give each member a chance to- participate in -and appreciate good music. Our club pin represents the aims of this organization.

Ahrens, our new music director, lost very little time in getting the school's mufsical organizations under way. Near the end of the first semester the orchestra presented a very successful concert in Music Hall. Some of the selections played were: Song of India by Rimski-Korsakov, a medley of Negro Spirituals, the Russian folk song, Two Guitars, and excerpts from '1'sC1mi1f0wS1qi's famous Sixth Symphony. This year the bandfs main job was to help add pep to the athletic events.

On Christmas Eve the group went out to Truax Field to sing to soldiers convalescing at one of the hospitals there. Dfusring the same season they also performed between the acts at one of the groups of o11e-act plays. At the beginning of the second semester they started on the contata T he Seven Last VVords of Christ. 5 Mr. Ahrens also encouraged ensembles and vocal and instrumental solos which were given on various occasions. These experiences were not only enjoyable to the listener but valuable to the performer. 1Pi1iyh,'f'Ififty-ofw lst Row: Skinner, Connor, Hayes, Levenick, Miss Weiglitmaii, Vingom, McKinley, Nystrom, MacKenzie, Taylor.

The club sponsored a Parent-Faculty Tea on December 3rd to enable the parents -and teachers to become better acquainted. Philomathia, for the second consecutive year, took charge of selling NVar Bonds and Stamps. Since the beginning of the second semester, members of Philomathia have sold stamps every'T1ueesday during the nine o'clock, classes. The students pledged to buy one or more Stamps each week. This method has been very successful and the VVar Bond and Stamp sales have increased one hundred per cent. On February 10th the Club sponsored- an informal all-school dance in the upper gym. The music was provided by O. Henry and his fine orchestra, and a good time was had by all. In February the members sent the boys in service the first issue of the Philomathia News-Letter. lt consisted of faculty news, sports, social ne-ws and a gossip column. In doing this we hope to keep the boys informed as to the activities of NVisconsin High School. VV e have enjoyed oulr year's activities very much and at the same time we feel that we have accomplished a great deal. We would like to thank Miss Wfeightman, our adviser, who has spent many hours directing the activities of the club. Page Fifty-two 1st Row: Kessler, WoodlJu1'11. Munkwitz, Andrews, Glasscn.

JIM VVOODBURN GEORGE MUNIQWITZ Photograph-y activities in Wiscoiisixi High School center around a club known as Photogs. Although it is probably the most irregular club in school, it is nevertheless the most interesting. The purpose of the club, of course, is to develop interest in photography and to take pictures for the school. This year, several new -members were introdiulced to the rudiments of the art. At the meetings, such phases as developing technique and table-top photography were tak-en up. As usual, Mr. Porter led the festivities with a bit of humor here and there while jim VVoodburn did a good job as president. After Jim graduated, George, Munkwitz took on this responsibility and carried on to the end of a successful year.

An ini- tiation meeting was held at the home of jim VVoodburn and everyone, including the initiates, had a fine time. At a later meeting we selected a short play, Dress Rehearsal, which was presented early in the spring with great suiccess. As always, the members of Red Domino held down outstanding parts in many of the various dramatic presentations of the school year. The club also took charge of the Hprioipn rooim, and was responsible for the stage settings for all the one-act plays. Looking back on the school year, it can truly be said that everyone had a swell time in Red Domino. Page Fifty-four lst CROW: Heironimus, Schramm, Crosbyg Nystrom, Heiman.

RAY POSTWEILER Hi-Y is a nation wide senior high school organization and to be a member is considered a privilege. In Wisconsiii High the club is limited to juniors and seniors and a total mmbership of twenty-five. New members are taken in by popular vote of the members of the club. Two groups of new members are taken in each year, one group in the spring and one grouap in the fall. The purpose of Hi-Y is to create Christian fellowship among the members and promote a pro- gram of usefulness and helpfulness. b This year as always Hi-Y started off the year with the usual rollicking initiation. On the first regular imeeting all of the members decided that this year Hi-Y shoulda do something worth while and of benefit to the school. The first thing that was done was to relieve the faculty of their jobs in the lunch rooms. Each lunch room was SLIPCT- vised by two Hi-Y boys and as a whole the program was very success- ful. Also i1I service to the school Hi-Y took on the responsibility of taking care of the juke box. All of the meetings this year were very successful. There was one meeting each month that was completely recreational and these meet- ings were met with approval by all of the members, Hi-Y also enjoyed many fine speakers throughout the year. On a whole Hi-Y spent a very successful year andi everyone in the club had fun making it a success.

HARRY ICESSENICH W Club is composed of all boys who have received one or more major letters in a major sport. Due to the fact that members are automatically taken in by winning a letter, the club has remained rather inactive. Each year the club loses many of its members by graclulation, but this is counteractecl by the number of new boys who work their way into the club. At the present time the club has a large membership. One important event that the XV Club takes charge ol each year is the awarding of the VV HY cup. This cup, awarded by Coach Knapp, not only symbolizes athletic excellence but also a high standard of scholarship, spirit and all around good sportsmanship. s Page Fiftyfseven A Fun,With a Future Present day interests consist of numerous things, the movies, opera, or plays. Clubs for most everything have been forgmed, and of these, we have a great variety at VVisconsin High. Under' the expert super- vision of our faculty, we students. have a lot of f-urn producing and staging one act plays, winning First place with a debate team any school would back, and doing most anything from taking pictures of one's head, to organizing committees for Sophomore Shuffle andi Freshman Frolic. r 1 A ' , It isn't only today that we'll be using these activities. lt's tomorrow when these interests will really prove their service to us. Activities such as ours have started more than one person on their way to fame. Speaker Rayburn of the House of Representatives, has studied much about speaking and knows his parliamentary laws, which Miss Borchers so patiently tries to teach us. VVisconsin High has excellent training in dramatics, also. Manyof our dramatics teachers and most all of our practice teachers are affili- ated with the University departments of speech and dramatics. VVl1o knows, under their guidance we may discover another Garson in our mid-st! ' . . And evenif we don't, we have had a lot of fun anyway!

Touch- downs were made by Phil Peckham, Rex Stick, Harry K-essenich, and George Crandall. Kessenich's hard driving sparked the team. W.H.S.-0 BARABOO-33 CAPTAIN-PECKHAM We were all in high spirits for this game despite the loss of Rex Stick due to injury, but Baraboo's power house was a little too much for us. Holmes of Baraboo, high scorer in the conference was a stand-out player in the game. WV.H.S.-6 MONROE-14 CAPTAIN-PECKHAM Monroe, one of our oldest rivals, handed us a defeat sparked by two spurts of old fashioned oftiense. Our lone touchdown came via an end run by Dick Johnson. W.H.S.-0 EDGERTON-13 CAPTAIN--CRANDALT. Edgerton started quickly and set us back on our heels. We fought hard but couldn't overcome their attack.

W.H.S.-32 FORT ATKINSON-0 ' 'CAPTAIN-CRANDALL We finished off the season in- great style, but our cheer was offset when Harry Kessenich and Damon Bryant both sustained broken collar bones. George Crandall finished his high school career by making three touchdowns, one on an 83 yard run. Other touchdowns were made by Damon and Ken 'Bryantf Two place kicks by Fitzgerald accounted for the two extra points. R BASKETBALL VV.H.S.-17 REEDSBURG-20 CAPTAIN-PECKHAM This was the first game of the season and there was a good crowd on hand to see it. Wisconsin High was favored, but the boys were a little nervous and as a result turned in the worst game of the season. Johnson caged 8 points for scoring honors. VV.H.S.-23 PORTAGE-22 CAPTAIN-JOHNSON The team's play was improved for this game, but was still far from top form. The highlight of the game was a 3 minute stall in the last quarter by our guards. Peckham took scoring laurels f'or the night with 7 points. VV.H.S.-25 BARABOO-17 CAPTAIN-JOHNSON Again the team was improved slightly and we won the game handily with the second team playing a good share of the second half-. Peckham was again high man with 8 points. VV.H.S.-32 STOUGHTON-21 CA1-'TAIN-CRANDALL This game was regarded as a must and we came through with flying col- ors. Wisconsin High was never headed throughout the contest and it was the fast break that was used that paid off on easy baskets time and time again. Johnson and Stick shared scoring honors with 11 points apiece. VV.H.S.-25 EDGERTON-22 .VCLAPTAIN-PEC'KHAM Edgerton came to the fieldhouse favored to beat us and we turned the tables on them. Peckham and Bob Woodburn teamed up brilliantly to hold their leading' scorer to 7 points. Johnson had 12 points for the night, 6 of them in the last quarter to stave off an Edgerton rally. W.H.S.-30 FORT ATKINSON4-21 CAPTAIN-4PECKHAM We played in spurts in this game but came out on top. Johnson was high man with 9 points. VV.H.S.-38 TWONROE-27 .

Johnson again was high man for the night with 15 points. . , VV.H.S.-33 EDGERTON-32 CAPTAIN-PECKHAM In a game thati would stop the heart of a calmist fan, we nosed out a fine Edgerton team. Peckham dropped in the winning basket in the last 30 seconds. VV.H.S.-28 MONROE-30 CAPTAIN-PECTKHAM We were a little too sure of ourselves in this game and threw away a ,five point lead in the last 2 minutes. With 30 seconds left and the score- tied, Johnson was fouled, but missed the free throw and they scoredgon a sleeper play to win the game. Johnson had 10 points for the night. g VV.H.S.-36 FORT ATKINSON-23 -' .

CAPTAIN-l'1:c1cHA1x1 Before an overflow crowd of 1,600 people we came from behind to soundly trounce the Cheesemakers. Peckham caged several spectacular long shots for a 10 point total. 'W.H.S.-?? JANESVILLE--P? CAPTAIN-PIQCKHAM A real hot Janesville team quelled our championship hopes by beating us at our own game. VVC led only once at the beginning of the game: Johnson cashed in on 6 free throws and 4 field goals for a total of 14 polnts. CEOH A school tournament for boys determined the best players who made up the school team. The team played six dual matches, one city tourna- ment andi the Southern Ten conference match. The team finished fourth in the conference meet and fourth in the city meet, and won one and lost Five dual matches for- the season. Members of this year's team are Dan Peterson, Duane Block, Marlowe Loftsgordon, Bill Brodhead, and Dave McGrath. . . A a A giTennB.. A ' y - Last year's'tennis team fared, much better than any of the members expected and-the outlook for this season is very bright. NVe lo-st three members oflast year's squad, namely Bill Enneking, Ted Kozminski, and Bill Brinkley, but we havemany up and coming replacements from last year's squad. They are Bob Woodbtirii, Dickjohnson, Alan At- kins, Gilbert'Ross and Harry Kessenich. As usual an all-school tourna- ment will -be held to determine the members of the 1944 tennis team. Newcomers. to the squad are VVayland Noland and Jack Harris. q K y ' Track - A I The outlook for the track team this year is good. The three return- ing lettermen are Tom. Langlois, who will ruin the 440 and the relay, Jim Paytonwho will run the dashes and tf.1e relay, and Damon Bryant -who will run the 880. But the fact that there are only three lettermen will be overshadoxvedi by the fact that there will be numerous men contending for positions on the team. Lettermen lost by graduation are Jim Conlin,-:Bob Niedner, Paul Nelson, John Harper, and Forrest rlflicks. ' A ' ' ' ' ' ' r T P ay ca S'i'L1'fj'-iilitfflj GIRLS' SPORTS Four weeks of bowling fun this year came to an untimely end due to the shortage of' pin boys. We miss seeing people like Phyllis Crosby make strikes right and left while others like myself roll nothing but gutter balls. Besides all this fun we're also missing out on thirty helpful G.A.A. points toward the W letter. During the 'hockey season the ninth and tenth grades improved their tech- niques greatly. As a consequence, they challenged the upper classmen to a game. The challenge was accepted and the game was one of speed and action. The older girls Won, 5 to 2, but not until a terrific battle had ensued. The winter season brought on volleyball. It proved to be such a popular sport that each team had fourteen players which made playing difficult. The Spinners captained by Helene Swanson won the tournament with a 100 per cent average. Basketball was also on the calendar of sports. Every VVednesday afternoon was characterized by whirlwind action as the Hotshots captained by Phyllis Crosby tangled with the Mosquitoes led by Ianell Goldgruber. The games were fast and marked by some real sharp shooting. For the players, the end of the basketball season came alll too soon! VVhen the time came for baseball, we all hadi glowing faces for it meant going outside where we got some of that vitamin D sunshine. The out- standing advantage of this sport is that all the grades are eligible to compete. In this way We became acquainted with the younger girls. This rounds out our year of' sports. Throughout the various seasons our chief aim has been-GOOD SPORTSMANSHIP' E. X The Year Around In Sports Page Sixty-f11.l'cc ATHLETICS Fair Play Will Win There are those who have made sports their profession, as have Coach Knapp and Miss Purvesg then there are those who stand on the sidelines and view the progress of a basketball game or a football lineup. All America has always taken an interest in sports and because of the excellent training we have had, we have carried our fair play into our lighting methods. In later years, as well as the present, this training will be very valuable. And to prove this, we could have no better opport-uinity presented to us than the world-wide conflict in which we are now participating.

All sorts of things enter our minds. Things are good and bad-happy and sad. The first day We set foot in t'he halls at Wisconsin High, we tried desper- ately to find rooms in the first-day confusion and invariably Walked into the wrong one- Later, we became used to the routine and started feeling pretty grown up, until we caught a withering glance from that senior- Then there was Sophomore, Shuffle, which was one of the first real dances we went to, and was it fun!! We entered thfe chemistry room for the first time and spied a tall, white- haired gentleman crouched behind some graduates and test-tubes. Later we discovered 'that his name was Mr. Porter. From that moment on thc daily hour of chemistry was flooded with a barrage of jokes. CPD Then there were the school' games that we attended with much vigor and spirit, until we started to lose 'the game, then we got mad and made up our minds that we'd win anyway. Time flew by and before we realized it we were juniors, watching with a smug look on our faces as the new batch of freshmen wandered around the school with dazed looks. They didn't know what it was all about-let them find out for themselvesg we had to. Junior Prom gave us something to really remember. It was formal and smooth. r Those were just a few of the happy things we remember. But we had our serious side, too. There was homework to be done each night, grade points to be kept up, topics to give, themes to write and chapters to outline. And, of course, we grumbled about all this. VVe grumbled just as you are doing. We complained about the English assign- ment, the drinking water wasn't cold enough. During the good old- days when we had an hour and a half for lunch, we used to play baseball behind the nurses' dorm, or 'take long walks overt our lovely campus. We fought to 'have hot lunches and the teachers fought with us, we didn't win, however, until this year. Now that we've got it, no one wants to carry the trays up to the third floor so that they can be washed before being returned to the restaurant across the street. And, of course, how could we ever forget those yearly teas given by Philomathia, when the parents came to talk. to the teachers, and we went home quaking in our boots while waiting for the uverdictf' But all this is only something put on paper in cold black and white. Underneath all of our kidding and laughing, there is something serious, something that we all have done a l-ot of thinking about. The war has entered our lives and for some of us has hit home. Many of last year's seniors are in the service, and after our graduation it Won't be long before the trains will carry some of our own classmates off to--heaven only knows where!! Not so long ago it seemed impossible, that some of us might one day give our lives for that same Constitution that Miss Ruth Johnson tried hard to teach us. Now as we look back, perhaps it becomes more real to us. ' Q They say high school is the best four years of' your life. We never listened. Now--we know. And so for the pleasant memories that will last us a lifetimeg for the teachings that the faculty patiently drilled into usg for the wisdom we learned the hard way, for the chance to become better men and women of tomorrow, there are no words that could fully express our feelings and gratefulness. We'l1 just have to rely on two well worn words--thank you. Page Srirvty-eigh-t kj Lf. 1 ij- -46.5 1' T n Y, , 4 idll. J.
