Many of these events we have shared in common, although all of us have had side-tracks of our own. We know, though, that we've all been moving in the same direction. As Seniors we look back on our six year trip, and forward to our destination. -1 - ii fx .ll W Q t pm in Q if Qifvx fisifqnxx i The Class of 1948 dedicates this book to Mrs. Karen Falk Johnson, whose advice and companionship have made our six years here a memorable experience.

They have been leaders in our academic life and our friends as well. They have hon- ored us as individuals and encouraged our creative efforts. They have made a lasting impression on us that we will carry for many years... For all their thoughtfulness and consideration, we thank them. , y ., ii -.5 f ' XR .

How many times have we heard our parents sayfliwhen I was in high School . . .H or something similar? But what was the next part of the sentence? Any- thing worth remembering? It won't be E00 IOHS HOW till I mi8hf 53V that' and when that time comes, I want to have memories that are worth while. Looking back over four years of high school, each person cherishes certain things, depending on what high school has meant to him. It means something different to each of us. Perhaps we've been thinking of school as a building where we sit through six hours of class, and then rush over to Hennie's. To some of us, it may mean the football games, a Hi-Y pin--or making up time. There are countless things we could name that high school might mean, but if someone were to ask you what high school did for you, could you give an answer? The answer is a hard one to put down because we can't always see the results that our high school experiences have had upon us. Since I'm only a Senior, I can't tell how my future life will be changed because I've gone through high school, but I can recognize some of the things that have helped to make these last few years a vital part of my life. Teachers realize that classes aren't all that make up a school. The educa- tion that is given to us in our classes is only a starter. We get an education from everything we do. For instance, I'll remember a lot of the training from my subjects, but I'll probably remember more vividly what kind of a teacher I had, or who sat behind me. I'll remember the many projects we've carried through, the excitement of Prom, the guilty exhuberation of skipping, the argu- ments in club meetings, and those days in which there wasn't enough time to do everything. But even these memories wouldn't mean much if I couldn't remember the kids who share the same memories. These friends I've made in high school may not be the ones I'll have all my life, but they're the ones who have helped me to decide what kind of a life I want to have. I've learned from them by knowing them, and trying to understand their viewpoint. The more people I know, the more I can learn from them. That's why I think that high school means much more to people who know as many kids as possible. We're lucky at Wisconsin High- Our school is small enough so that we can know the names of almost everyone. Of course, knowing the names doesn't mean knowlng the Pe0P1ef so we have to go one step farther and make many friends, enlarging our own small group. The only trouble is that it isn't always eas , Y to en1fF8e H SFOUPE it s not half as much work to go out of high school knowing approximately the same number of kids as when you go in, but it isn't half as much fun! 'I guess I:ve beaten around the bush long enough to give you an idea of how I think. Here s my answer to 'What did high school do for me?n--high school gave :e a wonderful chancf to meet m3nY People my own age, and each one of them has ad a personal part in making me the kind of person I am today. janet Huiskamp WHISTLE STOPS IN 1958 'lhe other day we were wondering what had happened to all of those fine kids who graduated from Wisconsin High in 1948. CThey did graduate, didn't they?l We decided to board a west bound train to see what the menbers of the class have been doing in the past ten years. Your reporters wander into the great train depot in New York. Amidst the crowds in Grand Central Station we run into JOHN HOCKEY, chief train caller, whom we remember as being voted the 'Boy Most Likely to Succeed' by his class. That just goes to show you ----- ! He in- forms us that our train is pulling out in forty-five minutesg if we want to see some of our old classnntes we can join a party in the club car. We are shocked to find that it is a going-away party for two honey-mooners, Mr. and Mrs. Dal KESSLER. The bride, the former DUDE NEESVIG, finally consented to marry Lou, man about towm, who made his millions manufacturing magnetic billiard balls. The party is being given by New York's triple-threat hostesses, JEAN DEPEW, SUE ELY, and PAT MCGOVERN. All three are distinctively attired in furs. The wraps bring them many compliments and it is pointed out that the furs were trapped by BILL GATZ, who hunts fur bearing animals in his spare time. While he is away trapping in Canada, the Gatz Brewing Com- pany is run by it's vice-president, ROBERT ABERG. Mr. Aberg originally set up the busi- ness with funds embezzled during four years as class treasurer. Moving on, we see DICK RYAN daydreaming in the corner, a habit he acquired in his high school days. Mr. Ryan tells us that he has just returned from South America with his old friend, FRITZ BURRELL.1 They have been giving serious thought to the research they did comparing North and South American girls. Oar attention is caught by the brilliant light of a flash bulb. Dashing over, we see TED MARTIN, ace photographer for 'The Manhattan , getting pictures of the event-of-the-month. With him is the Society reporter, FAITH PECKMAN, also covering the party. Faith tells us that BETSY PROHASKA has given up her ballet career because of trouble at home. JOE has been 'kissing too many famous movie stars. With that bit of news Faith dashes off to her next scoop. With reluctance the party breaks up as the train starts on its way. We move into the obser- vation car, and who do we run into but ART POSBECK, New York's leading art critic! Art tells us that ROBERT DAGGETT, conductor of the New York Fillharmonik Jazz Orchestra, has made another hit with his latest symphony entitled Ba-a-wk ! Also he tells us that MICKEY EYE, concert pianist, has made a successful crash in the re-release of Carnegie Hall , play- ing Mr- Daggett's thirteenth piano concerto. Art is really saddened by the tragedy that has happened to CAROL COWAN . For the eighth time in her career she didn't jive with New York critics in her latest comedy, Cantonville Heaven's Holiday . From out of nowhere pops BILL KLEIN. the commtry's foremost hot-rod engineer, who points out of the window to KITTY TAYLOR, who is playing Dixie on the railroad ties ahead. Sitting next to us in the car is Miss RITA BURKE, who has become a nurse for Doctor Anthony. One of the saddest cases the doctor has had is that of MARCIE RUSSELL and LUCILLE SMALLWOOD, who are still paying their debt to society for slandering various mem- bers of the faculty in the Wisky High annual. Rita also tells us that Doctor Anthony is retir- ing and that BILL NELSON, the noted psychiatrist, is taking his place. Before we know it, we're in Chicago, just in time to see pictures of IRIS BYLAND all over the station. The reason: Iris is the first woman to run for President. As we open the door to the coffee shop we see that it is the political headquarters of PAUL PARKER. The walls are covered with his slogan, 'Pitch for Parker for President. He couldn't tolerate a woman running for president without opposition. We board the train and head for the club car. What's this? The train comes to a sudden stop.. We are among the curious people to see JIM CRAWMER and his old '48 Buick jalopy, blocking the tracks. Jim says he is afraid that the delay will make his samples of cold- cream 1 11 1 1 1 1111 11,11 11 1,,,, 1 1 ,11 1 1,, 11, 1 111:,1,.:,',,,1111,'1I'11'1111 1 1111 ,,1,1M U, 1 11 1, 1 111, ,111,,111,11,,111 11,1,1,111,1, 111,1,11,1,1!,1,1,1111W1W11,11, 11 ll l ' 11 'W N 1 N' ll 11 W1 l 1U 1 1 1 '1 1 1 11 1 11 1 1 11111 11l1l11111111 1 11 1l l l1l1 1 1 1111 i l l W 111 111111!! ! 111'l1g11f,11, 1,111111,,1,,,1,:1M1,1,1: 111,1,,111 111'Y,1',, 1 1 11N1,11u,,11, 1 11!1111111111 11111 1,111111111111,',1V1J1WW 1111,!,,,111111111,111 111, 11111111111111111111 11 111 11 1111,1 11 '1,11111 1 f ',111 ' 1111 1 1 1 1 , , 111m m M ,,,1,,111!,w 1,111M111,1,1111, 11111, W W, 111 1 1,1111 1111, H11 .1 1 1 , 1 11 1111111 11 , 111111 1,1,11111111 1 11 11111 11 1111 11.11 111 ' sour. Yes! Jim has become a traveling salesman. He tells US that GABBY GROVE S0111 him his car. They call her the greatest little auctioneer to ever hit North Carolina. Just as the train is about to pull out, we see a squad car race up and out climbs SAM PIPER to give Jim a ticket for blocking the tracks. Will wonders never cease? After this delay the train moves on. We near the old home town. Look over there. It's ED TALLARD in his front yard, playing with the kids. And out Shorewood way, DODO KIESLING is still sitting home, trying to decide what college to go to. But in all of Madison only one of our classmates has returned to Wisconsin High. JIM WHIFFEN has become assistant prin- cipal. He seems to be seeing a lot of KY PRECOURT, who runs a filling station for heli- copters across the street. DORIS WERMUTH is her chief handy man, and BEVERLY RANG PUBS a helicopter laundry. The train pulls out of the station and we are on our way. In a recent newspaper we find a picture of BOB REGENBERG, who is laid up in the hospital with an allergy. What's he al- lergic to? Paint, of course. Next to his picture is one of GLENN HANSON, all titre typing champion, who is shown clipping along at a speed of 350 words a minute. His hands are nothing but a blur. Ah, we're approaching the West. Looking at the passing billboards, we see an advertisement for KOB's Dude Ranch, equipped with running horses. The assistant proprietor of the ranch is JACKIE LANGLOIS , who has cast away the influence of the world and has sought the solitude of the ranch. Next to that sign is a billboard saying that Charles Atlas has finally grown old and tired and that Mrs. MUNSON's boy has replaced him as AUSTIN Atlas . And look over there! The directors of the famous New York School of Art, JEAN CARLSON and SYLV IA REID. are on their vacation. What are they doing--painting Burma Shave signs! And bouncing along the sandy road is a circus wagon. Ch the side is a large red and white ban- ner announcing that JANET HUISKAMP, the Girl on the Flying Trapeze, is now starring in the circus. Hollywood, at last! BILL PALMER, the great movie hero, and his pretty wife, PAT, en- tertain us at an open house. Here we catch a glimpse of an old friend, BILL SARLES. By profession he obtains free lodging with his class-mates of 1948, we call him a professional house guest. BILL's Next host is THOMAS BURKHALTER, who is the second Valentino. His latest picture is a sequel to Kismet , entitled Kiss Me . His leading lady is COLEEN GETTLE who gives up her job as Baby Snooks' double to become a screen siren. Standing over in the corner is DICK MEIER, getting his supply of olives in an unusual way. Dick took over Jimmy Durante's role when Jimmy lost his voice. He is in partnership with SCREWBALL ROUBAL, the great comedian. The pair have revived vaudeville. BILL STACY, the lively undertaker, tells us that if we really want to have some fun we should go out to JIM BRYANT's race track. In the dog races JIM uses greyhounds from KATHRYN EBY's kennels and rabbits from JINNY and DICK KLEINE's Rabbitry. g We are then confronted by 6'3 GORDY ANDERSON, who tells us in his bashful tone that he is modeling clothes for GORDY JUDD's exclusive men's clothing store. Modeling what the short man should wear he wears a stunning pair of knee pants. AE the party JACK DEDIE, the All American place kicker, is trying his pass technique on CLARA SKINNER, the beautiful skater. CLARA comes over to tell us that her friend, the former CONNIE CONLIN is having trouble mixing the formula for her twins. CONNIE we remem- ber as being 'Girl Most Likely to Succeed by her class. Again, that just goes to show you---! We leave the party and head for the Brown Derby. We are amazed to see two people pick up ,bits of the pie crust and test it for tenderness. They are KAY SOMMERS and ALICE MEYER, who have superseded Duncan Hines. Their book, Where Do We Eat? has been published annually for the past three years. We look at our watch and find that it is almost time to catch our train. We pay our bill and dash into the street. Just as we enter the railroad station a tired, dejected man hands us a printed pamphlet, Democracy in Russia , by BRUCE MCKOWN. Ah! good old BRUCE, still at lt.. 1'fNow we know what all of the old classmates are doing. As they say, Variety is the spice of 1 e. Eugene Roubal .... Marcie Russell... Dick Ryan ........

He paused and looked up at the wall plaque. He shifted the books in his arms, and said, 'Guess it's right about 'Education is not bestowedg it must be everlastingly achieved, and walked away. il THE MORNING BULLETIN Typical Day, 1948 l.

The sky is clouded over and it looks like rain. The air even gives you that feeling like it does before it rains. You are slowly walking along the street with nothing in particular to do and no special place to go. All of a sudden you begin to no- tice the different things around you. Things which you had never noticed before, even though you see this same block almost every day. You become aware of the great expansiveness of such a small place. There goes a milk truck down to Chicago. And that semi says Minneapolis on it. Here comes a truckload of new cars from Detroit. The license plate on that car is different than ours. Ours say 'America's Dairyland' on them. That one says 'This is the Place', and there's one that says 'The Peach State', and another, 'Land of Enchantment'. Little parts of these places here on this street. You had never thought of them that way before or hardly even wondered what they were doing here. But naw you do. Now you begin to look around a little more carefully. You notice not only the trucks and cars from other parts of this country, but you notice a few of the influences which were once considered foreign but are now as American as you are. The neon sign says 'Kelly's'. That's a good old Irish name. And there's a Jewish clothing store, the Italian shoe shop, and the Germ- an candy store all down the street. And along with this you begin to see the differences in people by noting the difference in their jobs and professions. These too, bringaapart of them- selves into the making of this block. . The siren blares and a cop stops a fellow for speeding. In some countries the sight of a policeman scares everyone who sees him, but here the only one who's scaredzh the guy getting the ticket. You feel thankful that you're here and you're glad that that cop is carrying out his civil duty and is protecting you instead of trying to terrorize you. You are glad of this even more when you see the ambulance go by with someone in it that has just been hurt. A light reflects off of something shiney. It's a bronze plaque. You stop and read it: A MHIBIAL TO THCBE WHO SERVED THE QIJNTHY IN THE WCRLD WAR. This sort of builds up a little patriotism in you. . .WHO SERVED THE CIINIRY. . .that means the whole country, not just that block, but here it is in this block. On the other side of the door there's another one which says: EREIZTED IN GWATITIDE BY THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF WISCINSIN. That's real friendship, just like the guy you saw give a ride to a fellow waiting for the bus a minute ago. So is that open door across the street. It's an eating place. You decide to accept their friendliness, so you go over to get a bite or two. You go in, sit down and order something. Maybe since you're inside you won't notice all these things, but you're wrong. You notice the people in the next booth. They are eating some- thing different than you are--they are feeling happy so their nickle plays a fast number on the juke box. You're not feeling quite so good so yours plays a slower one. You notice their voices, they have a slightly different accent than yours. It's one that is usually found in a different part of the country. They help bring out the expansiveness the same as the milktruck and the semi do. When you pay the check as you leave you can't help but feel the same friendliness others felt when they contribute to the 'Help Prevent Cancer' fund which built the hospital across the street. As you leave and begin to head for home you start to wonder why you noticed all these things, especially tonight. Then it comes to you. You are alone, there's no one to walk with you and keep you company. No one to cheer you up, to enjoy things with you. You have discov- ered you awakening factor ...... .... ..... LONELINESS.

Nels- . , -ii Just a word or two about the man pictured on this page. Harold Metzen has been coach at WHS since the spring of 1946 and has made many friends here. His duties are many and varied and take up much of his time Cas any one will tell you who has tried to get him to do anything for you.J Besides being coach of all sports, he is head of the Physical Education Department and he has charge of the boys Physical Education classes. How- ever he receives much help from practice teachers, both in the gym classes and in coaching the teams. Che of his character- istics is quietness on the bench, for which he has been nick- named 'Mighty Mouse Metzen'. Coach is a good kidder and a swell guy, and the boys know that no matter if they win or lose, they will still have a pal ---- Coach. coach. Besides helping in sbs - training of the squad, he did some very valuable scouting for us. All in all, Don was a swell guy and 3 good Coach' et alon without managers Ours Pic' A team can never g S ' ' tured below, helped the teams in many ways.

We started the season with Bill Palmer injured and Ed Tallard also on the bench because of injuries. Palmer got in and played well despite his ankle. Begenberg looked good on defense, but Edgewood was just too much for us. Still, we played one of our best games of the year. WHS 14 Hockey RICHLAND CENTER 7 Paul Trump scored first for us in the third quarter on a three yard line buck. Jack Dedie scored our second touchdown in the fourth quarter on a twenty yard pass from Palmer. Hegenberg made both extra points. The game was dull for the first two quarters, but the team showed spark and drive in the second half. WHS 7 Kessler MONROE 7 This was the first tie ball game of the season, but we were to have much trouble with them in coming contests. Monroe scored first inthesecondquarter on a pass from Moon to Purcell. Nbon made the conversion. Wisconsin High start- ed a march with Palmer running the last 31 yards to score. Begenberg made theex- tra point. wus 7 Ryan STOUGHTON 7 Another rough and tumble affair, this one at Stoughton, led to a tied up score. Jack Dedie scored first for us in the second quarter on a two-yard line buck. Palmer kicked the extra point. Stoughton came back in the third quarter with Kline scoring from the l8-yard line and Bud Reierson making the conversion. .. , ...W--.f-...W ..-.- ,. ,, .- .,,n,,r.yL:-V11 if-gr-1...-T . . .- .....j,r,,. - ,Hi , 3.-. WHS 0 Palmer PORTAGE 27 Portage scored in every period in this, our first conference loss. It put us in a three way tie for fifth place in the conference. Lauterbach and Loomis of Portage each got a touchdown and an extra point. We just couldn't seem to get going. WHS 12 Trump FORT ATKINSON 12 We had this ball game won, but Fort put on a real drive in the fourth quar- ter and tied us up again. Palmer got the ball in the first half and carried it 97 yards to score. We missed the extra point. Early in the second half, we smashed down the field to score again. We failed in the conversion, and led Fort 12 to 0. In the fourth quarter, a pass interference penalty against us set up Fort's first touchdown. They scored again and tied up the ball game. WHS 13 Dedie -Ihlmer EDGEHTON 31 This was another of those things. Edgerton scored in every period. Jack Dedie stood out for Wkfi as he scored on two brilliant touchdown runs. Hegenberg made the one conversion. WHS 27 Hegenberg -lkohaska LAKE MILLS 6 This was Palmer's day. He scored three touchdowns as he ran wild over a slightly confused Mill's team. Dedie scored the first touchdown for us on a pass from Palmer. Hegenberg was responsible for two conversions and Dedie got one. The victory tasted good after losing Mills last year 30 - 7. This was the best game we had played all season. n 1 ff WQH' x kr h p. xv K as X x x 3 .QQ Re X , ,,. 3 Wood ' W l U A 1 , - ,g g Q 'z- ' S1 , 4, X ! f ' ? kk Q XX 3 'ii R 'Joe Capfqjh 4 VD Lx, Rock Bob W hi gf Hosi' VQUAQBXC xi, .lil Us LK Don I PCWK Swede Y BB WHS 22 Whiffen OREGON 19 Bill Palmer and John Rockey led the Prep scoring each with 7 points. Hoff- man of Oregon was high for both teams with 11 points. This was our first game and a non-conference tilt. The shooting and floor play of both teans were ragged. WHS 19 Rockey REEDSBURG 47 This was our first road trip. We encountered the eventual conference champ- ions whose height and speed were too much for us to handle. Walt Meanwell led our scoring with 5 points. Berning took game scoring honors with 21 points. WHS 25 Whiffen WISCONSIN DELLS 23 Jim Whiffen began to hit his stride in this game and tied Dix n of the Dells for scoring honors with 10 points. We trailed 10-7 at the end of the first half, We came back in the second half to tie up the ball game 23-23, with 3 minutes remaining. Whiffen then sank a neat shot from the freethrow line to win for us 25-23. WHS 29 Whiffen LAKE MILLS 33 Our inability to make freethrows, as we had in preceding games, lost for us this non-conference game with Lake Mills. We were in the game until the last 10 seconds when a bad pass gave Schroeder of Mills an easy layup shot. Dick Ryan led both teams in scoring with 10 points. WHS 21 Memwell MONROE 45 Not much to say about this game except that Whiffen led our scoring with 8 points. Monroe's fast break and veterans from last year's championship team stopped us. WHS 27 Ryan STOUGHTON 25 This was a real thriller with both teams fighting up to the last 25 seconds, when Whiffen put the game on ice with the two freethrows he received when he was fouled. Whiffen's 10 points made him the game's leading scorer. WHS 35 Prohaska EDGERTON 31 This was a rough game. The lead changed hands 8 times. Whiffen and Pro- haska were standouts with 12 and 8 points respectively. Ken Buhrow of Edgerton led both teams with 14 points. WHS 23 Ryan FORT ATKINSON 32 We had a poor first half in which Fort outscored us 22-11. We cane back to outscore them in the second half 12-10, but we were unable to make up for our first half. Rheineck of Fort led both teams in scoring with ll points. Whiffen and Meanwell led our scoring, each with 8 points. wus 30 Whiffen HIGHLAND CENTER 56 This was our fourth conference loss. We made 6 freethrows in 9 attempts while Center made 12 out of 13. Campbell of Center led both teams with 19 points and Walt Meanwell paced us with 8. was 31 whiffen POHTAGE 39 Flustered by a zone defense, and a victim of poor rebounding, the Preps went down to defeat. Meanwell paced us with 7 points, while Journs of Portage took game honors with 18. A fourth quarter rally narrowed our margin of defeat but failed to turn the tide. WHS 47 Palmer EDGERTON 33 This was our best game so far. It started out slowly, but we got our feet on the ground at the end of the first quarter and led 20 to 10 at halftime. Jim Whiffen's 16 points and Bill Palmer's rebounding made this game one that we won't forget. UWoodH Steinhauer's consistent ball handling was also a contributing factor to this victory. WHS 30 Whiffen BARABOO 23 Jim Whiffen's 15 points and the rebounding of Palmer and Prohaska were con- tributing factors to this victory. Baraboo had trouble with the field house floor, making only 2 fieldgoals in the first half. They never took the lead or threatened seriously. Rick Meyer was high for Baraboo with 7 points. WHS 37 Prdmska FORT ATKINSON 39 We gave Fort a real surprise in this second gane, but we couldn't quite get up enough steam. We were in the game from the beginning and lost in the last 3 seconds on a lucky shot by O'Brien of Fort. Jim Whiffen was high scorer for us with 10 points. WHS 39 Meanwell STOUGHTON 15 We kept Stoughton from MAKING A SINGIE FIEID GOAL IN 'IHE FIRST HALF! Mean- well led both teams in scoring with 10 points. Nuff said? WHS 33 Prohaska MONROE 47 This game really had Monroe worried. We played our best during the first half and held them to a 19-19 tie. We stayed tight in the ball game until the end of the third quarter, but, in the fourth quarter, theconsistently good play of Monroe turned the tide. Ryan was high scorer for us with 10 points. WHS 41 Whiffen -Ikohaska FORT ATKINSON 30 This was the opening game of the Stoughton tournament. We had been beaten twice during the season by Fort, and revenge tasted sweet. Ryan played the best game of his career, getting 16 points to take scoring honors. We were forced to shift our lineup when Prohaska, Palmer, and Anderson all went out on fouls. We turned on the heat in the last quarter and got 21 points to win 41-30. WHS 31 Hym1 MADISON WEST 57 This is a game we had been looking forward to for some time. West's supe- rior playing in the first half eliminated us from the tournament. Duane Gordon, Madison West's center, led both teams in scoring with 20 points. Joe Prohaska was high Prep scorer with 11 points. -r-wvvpvmwf-5 ,--qv W, 'N , TRACK The 1948 track squad will be built around five returning letter men. Austin Munson in the hurdles, Ed Tallard in the 440, Dick Pigorsch, high jump, and Bill Palmer and Dick Bryant in the dashes. Bill, incidently, will be defending his city crown in the 200 yard dashcome the city meet. These fellows should get some help from Ted Martin, Gordon Anderson, Fritz Hanson, Jim Gale, Dick Kiesling, Jerry Herling, Ken Little, Charlie Burns, Jim Peters, Leonard Byers, Ned Kuenzi, Harold Steinhauer, Claude Burdick, Don Lehman, Dave Frederickson, Jim Black, Dick Lee, and Delano Nemec. The squad not only meets in dual city meets, but in the Madison West Relays, the Baraboo Invitational, the Southern Ten Conference meet, and the State SCCti0H31S- TENNIS Coach Cliff Bunker found four veterans, Joe Prohaska, Jim Whiffen, John Hockey, and Bob Holland, from which to mold his '48 edition. The team set their hopes high at bettering last year's record which was: Second in the city series, second in the city tournament, and third in the Southern Ten Tournament. Other boys working out at the Mills Street Courts were Fritz Burrell, Art Hogan, Dick Theil, Jim Rewey, and Tom Benedict. VOLLEYBALL The Prep Volleyball team had one of the better seasons of any of the WHS teams. We were fortunate in having five minor letter-winners back from last year's squad. The team competed in the city league and the Southern Ten and State Tournaments. We started the city league in good style, but slipped to third place by the end of the season. The team then went on to sweep the southern half of the Southern Ten tournament with- out a defeat, and moved on to the finals with Baraboo, here at WHS. This was a repeat of last year, except that we defeated them 3-1 instead of loosing 3-2. We entered the state tournament. After defeating Lodi two easy games in the morning, we moved into a rugged afternoon of play. We defeated East 2-1, Central 2-1, and lost to West 5-2. Because the tournament is double-elimination, we met West again in the finals but lost -2. This gave us a season's standing of third in the city, second in the state, and first in the Southern Ten. This year's team consisted of: Jack Dedie, Bob Hegenberg, Dick Hyan, Don Damon, Bob Holland, Dave Snow, Fritz Hanson, Henry Bassett, Lowell Froker, and Hugh Strong. GOLF This year's Golf team has prospects of a good season. The team has two lettermen returning this year: Doug Campbell and Bob Spoentgen, who should get good support from the other candi- dates, Bob Hegenberg, Lowell Froker, Harold Steinhauer, Jim Williams, Tom Hurff, and Jim Black. The team competes in city dual meets, and the city, state, and Southern Ten meets. Hopes for an extra outstanding year took a slight dip when Dave Barclay, medalist intJu:State.Junior Cham- ber of Commerce tournament last summer, moved out of the state at the end of the first semester W MNWWYWHlHFW13W7ll'WWNW?'W W '1'W!N ' ' ' ' ' N N WW HH H N Hockey Hyan Steinhauer Tr mp Whiffen Anderson Meanwell Palmer Prohaska Hegenberg A WORD FHOM COACH John was one of our guards on the team, and always gave everything he had when playing. He 'dogged' the opponents, and was a fine defensive player--when he remem- bered to keep both feet on the floor! John's shooting style was unorthodox, but he did manage to sink a fair percentage. Dick was playing his first season of varsity ball, and did an outstanding job. He didn't find his scoring eye until the season's end--which was unfortunate for us! We always used Dick as a good example of how not to shoot a lay-up shot, but we'll miss his other play plenty next year. Harold was our 'spot' player, and often gave the team a needed 'lift', when put in the game. Woody possesses a beautiful pair of hands, and we have a hunch he'll really be swishing 'em next season. Most people will say, 'It cou1dn't happen to a nicer guy!' Paul was playing his second season of varsity ball,andwas one of our best workers. Possessing a lot of speed and drive, 'fast break' was his main forte. We are glad he's back next year, and hope he has a banner seasonQ Jim was aregular forward on the team and the leading scorer. Whenluzfound his' pot' on the floor, the ball was really swished through for two points. 'Whiff' was also one of our better free-throwers, and his scoring ability will be sorely missed next season. Gordon was a center on the team, and should be given credit for a job well done. His size was an asset, and his determination made up for a lack of natural basket- ball ability. 'Swede' handed us many laughs in practice Cand bumps tooll when the familiar cry of 'oops' indicated that some ears or noses or teeth had been 'con- tacte '! Walt played one of the guard positions, and was our play-maker. Outstanding feat of the season was making nineteen free-throws in a row before missing. Walt's value to the team was split between offense and defense, and we are counting heavily on him for next year. Bill played center for us and was an outstanding rebounder. He didn't score too much, but the fellow he was guarding usually didn't fare too well,either--oneway or the other. We'll never forget Bill's nice, easy lay-up shots--so 'gentle'. In fact the baskets are still vibrating! Joe started the season at his old spot of forward, but soon transferred to guard. This change helped the team greatly, for Joe is a fine rebounder and used his size to advantage in the back court. 'Pro' has plenty of endurance, and just seened able to run up and down the court all day without tiring. Bob was also playing his first year of varsity ball, but was a valuable player to have around. He was a spark-plug and often made points when we really needed them. We enjoyed having Bob on the squad--even though he was a little 'camera' shy! iw- --qw - - -,V Anderson Bryant Damon Dean Ibdie Gale Holland Little Munson Palmer .,, , ,iv-,. .-..--- V, -,.-....-.N f,..- . ,fs - pun-v ANOTHER WORD FROM COACH Gordon played some fine tackle for us, and we'll miss him next year. 'Swede' was a man of varying moods--sometimes he was over-anxious, and then again we had to build a fire under him to get him moving! When aroused, he was really a bear-cat! Dick developed rapidly in this his first year of football, and was one of our bet- ter runners by the end of the season. He has the speed and ruggedness, and we'll predict that he will be one of our brightest stars--if he has the will and shows the desire! Don played quarterback for us, and come along fast during the season. We like Don's desire to play and admire his pluck. Don should be a key player next year, and we gre looking forward to his signal calling--which we hope will result in many touch- owns! Mickey improved steadily over the course ofthe season, and was one of our most val- uable linemen, playing either guard or tackle. We are glad he's back, and arelook- ing forward to both his humor and spirit, and fine play next year. Hope he takes off just a little of that 'jelly belly', however! Jack stepped into the full-back spot early in the season, and really did a swell job. He quickly mastered the 'spin' plays, and proved a valuable decoy when not carrying the ball. We will never forget him hitting that Portage player head on, and coming out looking like a white-washed turtle! Jim did a remarkable job for us considering it was his first year of football. He was one of the most willing workers on the squad, and always put the team's welfare ahead of his own. We have a hunch Jim will be one of our better boys next year. Bob proved to be a steady ball player, and one of our better blockers. Strictly on the asset side are his team spirit and desire to win. 'Buzz', we prophesy, will live up to his name in mowing down the opponents next year. Ken came along fast through the season, and wasalways an aggressive player. He had the fastest straight ahead charge of anyone on the team, and wearelooking for- ward to some fine play from him next season. Austin was our regular right tackle, or I should say Austin and about 50 yards of adhesive tape were! The Egyptians had nothing at all on us with their mummies--we had 'Munse'! Of all the things we'll really miss next year, we will list first Austin's fine physique and the way he 'made it felt', and last but not least, the 'face'! Bill was our key offensive threat and a real 'scooter' in the backfield. His speed and power earned the respect of all opponents and resulted in selection to the all- city eleven. In fact, we sometimes felt that he relied too much on power and not enough on speed. Bill loves the game, and we're hoping to hear of his further suc- cess 1n it. Peters Pigorsch Prohaska Hegenberg Hockey Hyan Thllard Trump Vogel Wheeler Whiffen : W Jim was another of our new boys this year and was a willing worker and welcome ad- dition to the squad. If he makes up his mind to really apply himself in all ways, we have visions of his becoming an outstanding ball player. Dick closed his third fine season of football by being chosen to both all-city teams--an honor he richly deserved. Dick is the happy-go-lucky type and provided the squad with many laughs during practice sessions. I venture to say that Dick will be a really great player--if and when he really buckles down to work. Joe was our regular left-end for most of the season. His play was steady rather than spectacular, and we will always remember Joe as a reliable performer. His main trouble was turning around to see how the other fellow was making out! Bob directed the team's play from the quarterback position and was right at home in the driver's seat. We liked to kid him, especially about 'having his picture took' but 'Heggy' was always there with a bright retort. Yes, we'll miss Bob's fun mak- ing and play calling next season. John shifted from the backfield to guard this year, and strengthened the team by so doing. 'Rock' proved to be one of the best in the conference, and was honored by being elected captain of the team. Yes, John was a swell ball player to have around. Dick anchored our offensive line at center, and was a good line-backer on defense. He certainly learned his lessons well in view of the fact that this was his first season of play. We will certainly miss Dick next year, both for his play and fine team spirit. Ed was one of our right halfbacks, and a veteran holdover from last year. His speed was of value for reverses, and his power for blocking. Ed wasn't afraid of anything and was a good fellow to have around when the going got rough. Paul was constantly nosing around the football field looking for 'trouble'--and us- ually found it! As chief line-backer, Paul took real pleasure in stopping the en- emy's attack, and was therefore our ace trouble-shooter. We've promised to let 'Curly' carry the ball next year too--and I'll bet we won't be sorry either! Dave came to us a new boy this year, and was of real help to the team. His previ- ous experience had been at guard, but we needed an end, so he pitched in there and did a swell all-around job. As with his other work, Dave is serious about being a success--and we have a hunch he always will be. Gene came to us a new player this year, and was one of our most pleasant surprises. Although only a Sophomore, he was big and rugged enough to earn his spurs as a tackle. We'll always be glad to see Gene's very warm smile and fine spirit. Jim deserves a great deal of credit for his efforts and contribution to the team. Even though his game time wasn't great, he was always there when needed. I used to close my eyes when the 'big guys' came roaring at Jim, but he was still around at the end of the season, and we're glad he was too! 4- ':WWWNdr- ll5NN Z x. iris!

During the year there seems to have grown a set of rules for the girl's gym classes: Watch the instructor, listen to the instruc- tor, and then do what you had planned on doing in the first place. This year the Freshmen settled down into high school life,andhave shown what swell sports they are. Judging from the shouting which issued, there was plenty of team spirit. For all classes, the sporting year consisted of Hockey in the fall, with Volleyball following, and Bas- ketball was introduced after Christmas vacation. In the Spring, Softball and Tennis were the favorite games. Terminating each of these seasonal sports, there was a much anticipated tour- nanent. ' Last fall, a group of Senior girls were instructed in the finer points of Golf. This proved to be very interesting, and was liked by all concerned, except the 'greenskeeper', of the University grounds, who had to replace the turf. Tennis is a subject taken by the Junior and Senior girls. It has made a big hit, or so it appears from the laughter echoing from the courts. With such a group of active girls in school, it is only right for them to have a clubnmnd G.A.A. The Girls' Athletic Association meets after school, and has tournaments in the popular sport of the season. Hiding, as an after-school activity, has rapidly increased in popularity. All the girls will tell you that the fun is worth the unavoidable jolts. Tb make a long story short, sports accomplish their purpose for the girls who go out to have fun .....

Council also kept in touch with other schools by joining the National Association of Student Councils, sending dele- gates to the State Student Council Convention and by an exchange visit with representatives of Mt. Horeb High School. The student body was informed of Council activities by a 'fbuncil Cor- neru in the Hi-Life, written by members of the Publicity Committee. Student Council's main project was the European Aid Campaign. Through the Council, Wis- consin High adopted two French schools and sent food, clothing and school supplies overseas. This program was carried out in a series of drives calling for the cooperation of the whole school. We are all proud of its success.

The patients at the Veterans' Hospital were also able to see the show through the combined efforts of Junior Hed Cross and Orpheus.

Members also took part in the All-City Music Festival, in conjunction with the music departments of all the city schools. In addition to these larger projects, the choir kept up the tradition of carolling in the halls at Christmastime, singing at the Good Friday services and at the Ckmnencement exercises. lst row --- Smallwood, M. Russell, WISCONSIN HI-LIFE n Every two weeks, the students look forward to seeing their school newspaper-- the Wisconsin Hi-Life. The hard work of the staff directed by Faith Peckman, the editor, has transformed the paper into a permanent school organ. The appearance of Hi-Life was improved with the use of the multilith, which was operated byTed Martin and his assistants. Everyone is looking forward to an even better paper next year because of this year's excellent start. Wermuth, Peckman, G. Barth, Berg, Baskerville, J. Huiskamp 2nd row --- Cowan, D. Nemec, J.

An enthusi- astic capacity audience applauded the smooth running performance of the cast. Members of the cast included: Carol lr Cowan, Bob Hegenberg, Dorothy Kobs, Bob Aberg, Gladys Barth, Walt Meanwell, Paul Trump, Sherwyn Woods, Margie Swanson, and Pat Burrell. HJanuary Thaw,H by Bellamy Partridge, was a modern comedy about two families living to- gether in one house. It humorously portrayed the problems which arose from the differences in ways of living. Mr. Paul Gauger directed the play, and with the cooperation of the props committee, cos- tume committee, and make-up, the play was hailed a success by all. RADIO WORKSHOP HThis is station WHS: the youngest stqfion in the nation.H No matter how young it is, Wisconsin High can be proud of its Radio Workshop, which has provided the participants with the fundamentals of radio. New equipment, and the able direc- tion of Mr. Paul Gauger have spurred onthe interest of radio among a large number of the students. Their enthusiasm has helped them to take the leadixxyouth shows broad- cast over local stations. They have also demonstrated their ability to parents and friends through evening programs. MAKE-UP UWho's that, under all the make-up?H The make-up artists hope you can't tell, because they've been taking lessons from Mr. Gauger in this difficult art. They've helped out with the make up in the one-act plays, and have had a lot of fun besides. ONE ACT PLAYS , Lights! Action! The one act plays are about to begin in room l4! With the dir- ection of the practice teachers, the plays were tri-yearly events. Students from all grades participated in the plays and there were capacity audiences for all of them. Besides having loads of fun acting in the dramas, the 'stars' got plenty of worthwhile experience. 7753 xv . A '-- Jlfkwxb- 'f75 'S,H- illIl W',-xl' vb...
