Perhaps someone may have already informed you, but then again if they haven't, let us be the first to let you in on the We have performed a stupendous task! We've stuck out battling years at Wisconsin High and for the most part know. four it's been a great life. Take our Freshman year for instance. We started out with a bang as feuding freshmen. IH those days as lowly Frosh, we looked up high to the ly petitioned for an all school mighty seniors and generous- HFrolicH in order to share our fun with them: not realizing that seniors might do other things besides go to Freshman dances. But NFrolicW was a big success without the aid of upper classmen and the unusu- al Chinese lanterns we dug up from Hpropsu held together all evening and decorated the upper gym admirably, We finally got a chance to show the whole school our abilities at giving a dance, but once again ran into difficul ties. It seems as though we got into a heated argument over whether to wear Ujeansn or formals: and whether formal was the appropriate dress for juke box music. And say, were you one of the fellows on Miss Hoard's Hblack listu, for failing to ask a girl to NShuffleN? Well. anyway, as we all know, formal it was and Peggy King'S Orchestra plus red checked tablecloths dressed the dance up royally. The real prize of the evening was a professionally painted sign over the band' stand advertising Peggy Kingi Sophomore Shuffle went over bigl And on how we used to look forward to the noon hour and our delicious f???l hot lunches' One can't be sure if it was that the food just waSn't appetizing or if it was the table talk. which took in everybody s opinion of what went into the Hgoulashu, that sent the bowls back half full. V One of the most exciting nights of the year was the night of the Reedsburg Basket ball game when Dick Johnson broke the conference scoring record, were we wondering at the time, if we had the makings of a record breaker in our class? Well, the Junior year would telli breakers, but a stately pillars with couple, made it Our class wasn't able to produce any sensational record well to be remembered prom was given, The against a midnight blue background sprinkled stars, along with Ace and Barbara as a royal Nthe danceu of our high school history.

The biggest problem of our Senior year was fbut defi nitelyl getting out an annual, and if you asked Dick he'd tell you how many problems really made up the ink on these pages, - vSay, it's kind of discouraging isn't it, to think of how many years we've spent in such a dingy, dirty, yet wonderful school, only to have it painted every color of the rainbow the year we are graduating. We gave the school its last chance to admire our abilities as dance hosts at HSwingH. A hard-working decoration committee produced a lowedown shanty town with a classy kind of atmosphere, which along with great musical works by Palmer, Gettle and Peckham all added up to a swell evening, The last four years have been eventful for us in school, but also eventful in that they were historic years. We can still remember the shadow of war which was in the background of our first years. Now we are entering a period in which uncertainty again reigns. Soon we are to assume a position of responsibility in the future, well prepared because we have graduated from Wisconsin High School, In the short time left in our all important high school career, there's not much time for looking back, for what's been done in the past is only a beginning for our future SENIOR STATISTICS By Vote of the Senior Class it i',aty o succeed ' i If, , ., BO QQ 'fff QmlGt9Qf Loudest Biggest Wolf Sweetest Most Sarcastic Least Ambitious Most Ambitious Craziest Most Modest Nicest Most Conceited Least Conceited Best Personality Best Build or Figure Best Dressed Jim Guy Mott Dick Sexton Bill Nunkwitz Joe Dean Pete Oetking Jim Joe Jim Tom Joe Jim Tom Mott Dean Fish Peterson Dwyer Mott Peterson Pete Oetking Dave Miller Dick Sexton Bob Tom Hamilton Hefty Gal Edith Donovan Rosemary Schneiders Kate Tegge Janice Bondi Janice Bondi Sue Thronson Caryl Frederickson Nancy Hyslop Nancy Hoffland Janice Bondi Betty Butler Sue Thronson Joyce Harley Betty Thronson Sue Thronson Rae Hockey Rosemary Schneiders
