ECJlIEC'.2CJlIK'C3'r THE COACH Coach Metzen is in his third year at Wiscon- sin High School. Although we haven't won any championships in this time, we have done well, and Coach has proved to be a maker of men which is his main iob. He lives every .K V QL' play ofa game right along with his team. At ' -,i. L ubznu f i xxx ' times you think he's going to run on the field , ,fl 'ili ixwi A to make a tackle or block that some Bone- X Q ti' g I M,,,,,:i'g1t head , as he puts it, missed. We wish him ' XY A ,l luck in future ears, that's somethin that an 1 X ' iiii Lid coach can use? g Y THE ASSISTANT COACHES Very instrumental to the team's effectiveness of their personal time they showed their devotion throughout the season was the attention and advice to football and our team by correcting our faults offered by our capable assistant coaches: Paul and encouraging us when we did something well. Henry, Vern Bieles and Nick Holmes. Taking much THE MANAGERS L W Managers, Gene, Gwen and Dick did ' A A K W an efficient, thorough job of keeping .3 things ship-shape.

Donald Smith - I remember most my gratitude for the resourcefulness of W.H.S. students. I faced my first group of one-act plays with no scenery or lights. Two of my students built stage bord- ers, a switch board, and scenery before the plays were ready to go on. Rita Springhorn - The library used to be an amphi- theatre with the wall between it and 210 knocked out. There were seats in the library for observers. The thing I remember is my horror on entering it and thinking I had to teach there. Homer Stahl - I rushed into the iob, arriving in town one day with school beginning the next. It took about the first week to find out just where everything fitted. The faculty and students were very friendly so my adjustment came early. Esther Weightman - I remember the lack of faculty organization. I only knew the principal and one or two other teachers. I was visiting another school and taken to see a man I was obviously expected to know. I didn't, but I found out I should have. He was an art teacher in Wiscon- sin High.

FOOTBALL IN REVIEW Neenah T9 - W.H.S. 0 Captain, Dick Pigorsch We expected this game to be a test of endurance but we had not expected the 950 heat which made it practically impossible to put forth any great effort. Neenah's size contributed to its T9 point margin. The inspired ploy of Dick Pigorsch kept us in the battle and we moved down close on a few occasions. th 'xg gl , 'ti in , V f,,,i -itr It Reedsburg 25 - W.H.S. 7 Captain, Mike Dean This was our first conference game. Reedsburg was big and fast. The first half was a hard fought battle with Reedsburg ahead 6-0. The 2nd half we started strong but a blocked kick was recovered in our end-zone for a Reedsburg score. This broke our back! Paul played a terrific game and held the team together. Damon also was a standout. N libs?

We got the ball and drove to the 2 before losing it on downs. The second time proved dif- ferent, and Bryant scored on an end run. A 55 yard pass accounted for Lake's first T.D. but we came back and Trump scored on a line buck, Spoentgen booted the extra point. The 2nd half was different, Lake couldn't do anything wrong. They scored once in the 3rd and twice in the 4th period. Trump and Dean played good ball. -Q ,-Fixx ,:,.,.lfv- X ! :.. if A f 'Q ii' .
