Ue 1955 THE 19 5 5 TATTLER III IIII.IIDIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII...................................tlllllllllllllllllllll Nil....Mill......Illll 111 lllllll 1111 III 22 Class History w By Joy Frick son The Class of 1955 Hus been looking forwnriJ to Graduation Day for many years uml after we pans this milestone, we will never forget our friends at WSD who have treated us with understanding and guided us with interesting rare. The first member of this clous to enter school was David Christianson who wan a cute little lad with blond hair He onnir in 1939 and hailed from the small town of Whitehall. Hi' mother has always been very kind to our students and has given them many nice treats at her restaurant in Delavan. Dave has been very good in athletics and has won many letters in sports. He in willing to help people and has won the respect of all. HU ambition i • to he a linotype operator. The following year James Perhai and Joy Erickson joined Dave to travel through their school days together. So from thr second preparatory class on. these three have been classmates. A year l efore coming here in 1940, a chubby boy enter-ed the Superior Day school. HU two deaf sister who graduated here in 1939 and 1952, urged hU parents to ■lend him here. Jimmie, always a good nntured fellow, has taken it all in his own deliberate stride. How. the students have loved to gather around him and listen to his many good jokes, which make us laugh. He has a keen sense of humor and we will never forget him. He has played football, but was obliged to give it up on account of knee trouble. He is well-known as our best pot walloper. Believe or not. Joy was a why little miss who had two deaf sister that hud already attended this nehool. To her, the school looked like a hospital, and on her urrival the happy anticipation of entering faded nnd fear seized her. Her fear and doubt changed to happiness and ever since she hns enjoyed school life. Her great desire is to la a Physical Education or Home Economics teacher. The next fall Bill Scherer, a black haired boy with mischievous eyes, came, ufter spending several years in the 1-apham School in Madison. Like a number of boys in this doss, he has a big heart and is always helpful especially to older people. He was on the basketball and football varsity teams. Before Sonny” Haroldxon came here in 194! Mrs. Jones, nec Miss Williams had learned that he had become totally deaf when he was very young. So she urged his parents to send him to this school. Finally, his mother, who loved Sonny very much, consented to part with him. When he was a little lad, we didn’t get to know him very quickly and didn’t notice him much until he wus grown up and had become quite a lad. Now he is very popular nnd Is good company. He is a fine athlete being one of our best players in basketball and football. He aims tj be a linotype operator Come 1943 n little chubby blond girl whose home is at Madison, entered with fear nnd trembling. It was her first experience in school and away from home, but she soon adapted herself to her surroundings. She has always enjoyed her school work nnd ha. , ever tried to do her best nnd this has resulted in high grades. Six has spent much time reading and would like some day to go to Gallaudet College. In 1945 Walter Fidler transferred from the Marshfield Day School to WSD. Ho has studied very hurd and has donc creditable work in vocational dnsse . He hns played football, basketball and baseball nnd made good in them because of his speed. He is a quiet fellow and has made no decision for his future, hut we wish him good lurk. Late In September, 1948, Ruth Carlson’s family moved from Michigan to Milwaukee so that they could live near a school for their daughter to attend. Formerly, she attended the Michigan School for Deaf at Flint, and her home was in northern Michigan a great distance from the school. Ruth joined our class. This smiling, cheerful girl added greatly to the class and school activities. She lost her hearing from pneumococua meningitis nt five years of age. Her childhood experience in hearing stories rend created a desire to acquire knowledge from books. Now during her teens, her fondness for reading books continues. The next year the Class welcomed two fine hard of hearing boys who were Edwin Stahl ami Howard Thorpe. Both with their happy-go-lucky ways have added much to the cheer of the daily lifo of the class. Though they were formerly public -ohool students, they have adjusted themselves to the way:, of WSD beautifully and both have shown interest in the deaf nnd we all like them. Peter Fast, another hard of hearing hoy is a new comer. Hr hns been a member of our class less than two years. Through his faithful work he has accomplished a great deal. We all wish that he had joined us sooner. Now, in a few days we shall join the great band of WSD ulumni, nnd like most of them wo shall look forwnrd to the homecomings and be happy nx-et again. The girls will be especially anxious to see, Ariadna luall. their living quarters for many years, as it is being remodeled. They doubtlens will not recognize it. The doss, on the whole, have enjoyed working together and our friendship will, we hope, continue. We are sure that our love and gratitude for WSD will. T II K 1 H 5 5 TATTI.K It 1 !l 11. ill II!

We left Milwnukoc lute in tho morning and headed f� .r dear old Delnvon In our 800 m.p.h. OldimVile with our grandchildren. Even though we lived cnly 62 miles from Drluvan, 1 ha I not ben there rlncs I frra luatcd in 1966. When wo got into Dnlnvan, every tiling was si range. What had happened? Was it possible that Dcla van's population had grown to 26.000? An we reached WSI), wo saw that nil of the building were modern. Across tho street win n printing company named Hnroldinnsnn Printing Co. I know in n jiffy the ownors must be Warren and Dnvid. Because when we were in high school, they often talked of owning a small printing shop. I went into their office and found them at their desks. They told me how they had become successful. Both of them owned houses next to the company and invited Don, our grandchildren and me to dinner. Their wives were sweet. My husband decided to slay in Delavan for another •Jay hut I wanted to go to Beloit to sec Ed and Peter. So I went off ulone and an the way I saw a big sign which mid Home of the Stahls.

It was owned by Peter. Peter’s dream came true as he wanted to own one. He hod reserved n table for us. So we three talked over old times until far into the night. The next day I came back to Delnvon, then wc headed up north. On the way we stopped nt Mndi� on for dinner. We ate at Atomic Age Restaurant. There were no waiters, cooks, or other help. All you had to do was press the button, and there you were eating. Isn't life marvelous in the twenty-first century? As we got into the car. My husband discovered he hod lost his keys. Just then I noticed a Key Co. two block down. When we walked in, we were taken to the owner. We didn’t have to walk through the hall to him ns the floor was moving Itself. The owner was not in hb office. Suddenly a tall, dark-grey hnirded. good looking guy came in. WOW! Could he be the owner? I tries! to introdurc myself but ho laughed and «nid, “Hi, Ruth. For heaven' soke, who could he be? On hin desk he had n gold plate with his name on. Why, that was Bill. Why didn't I think of that before when he was in oehool, he wanted to be a locksmith, but now he is the owner of hi.i own bun incus.

Basketball of 1951-55 The Basketball season started early in November with neven lettermen bnck. David Christianson and Charles Riegert, who had starred last season, were ineligible because of the age limit. They joined the Milwaukee Silent Club, National Champions. The season was not very successful. The record wns six wins and fourteen losses. I.awrencc Bos and Warren Huroldson were elected Co-Captain . W. S.

Corduno had difficult time weeding out the candidate . Only 15 player niude the varsity team and another 12 made a team on Junior Varsity team. The W S D squad enjoyed playing with 12 high -chool , private and parochial chool . Despite the fact that W S D ha not win a single game, the boy have showed much improvement after each game. Several boys show murh promise for thu next year's team only one player, Walter Fidler will be missed from the 1966 squad. Bud Wescott and Leonard Peacock have done an excellent job with the Junior Varsity squad. They have improved younger boy ' talent. We hope they will continue In '66. T II K I II r, ft T A T T I.

On the way I uw the largest greenhouse in the world. We stopped to visit it because it was owned by Howard Thorpe, one of my classmate . Howard had good luck with his greenhouse and he offered me a $1,000 orchid free. How sweet of him! We were on onr way to Superior where I wanted to see Jim. These people were strange they said that they didn't have to wear coats in the winter time. Why, that city used to l e the coldest place in winter. They said that they have atomic energy to heat the air in the winter. We wanted to buy n car for our youngest son for his birthday. He was wild about the Plysoto a9 we went into the garage, the dealer met us in a Kindly way. Why. Jim, What are you doing here?” I said. He was nmaxed when I knew hin name hut he knew me the minute hi saw my husband. He told me how fond he was of cars and how he decided to run on automobile business. He gave us a good deal on n car. and we paid cash for it. He said the car would bo in Milwaukee within 20 minutes. That seemed impossible. ( Jim wo still n bachelor. | Then we were on our way Ku U We got in New York nnd stayed for a week. Then to Washington. D.C., I had never been to Washington so I wanted to go sightseeing the next day. I heard that Gallaudet College had � new library so I decided to visit that first of all. The m V library was very modern and everything worked by pushing buttons. I was staring at the librarian nnd believed she must be someone I knew. Sure enough, we two were looking at each other like two statues. Finally we both yelled our names. Hoy, was I ever glad to see Delores! She said that she went all through college nnd hud been working as a librarian for 25 year . I told her all about myself nnd the rent of our clns mules whom I had seen nnd I introduced my grandchildren. The queition I wanted to a k her wan if her Prince had came. ( She never cured for any during her school day a. i She said ho hail and hi is now the president of (ittllnudo! College. You might wonder why n president's wife works Many president' wives would stay home, but this one could not give up her job after working n� a librarian for many years. She had two girls of her own. It was time for us to part. Before we parted, she told me that Joy also lived in Washington. D.C. So I decided to stay for a few days more and visit Joy. My husband, our grandchildren and I npent two days at Gallaudet College and there I found Joy at Kendall School. She wa: the Physical Kducation teacher. She wa surprised to see me and told me that her htmhand who had graduated from (ialhtudct College and mreceded in business, wa. in the west, selling steer . He owned hundreds of them. Joy wns still the name. They have three children. It was good to see her. Finally we left for Milwaukee. At wo went, our “Old rnn out of gas. We didn't need to worry n� my husband got a bottle of gasoline out of the glove compartment and only put a drop of it in the tank and we were off. We went on and -aw a car parked on the side of the road. The fellow had a flat tire. I told my husband to stop because his face seemed familiar to me. So we turned back and sure enough, it wa Walter. My husband helped him with the tire. Walt told me that he wa on his way to New York where he worked as n manager of tno New York Tribune. He was still a bachelor. Home, at last. What a trip! I was about to drop dead. I began to think about my classmate . It surely wa gi od to them all and I felt thankful that they had all been successful in life. Well about myself, 1 used to work in an office before my marriage and now I am Just a housewife and have four sons of my own. Three of them nre married nnd the youngest one in in college. My hushnnd own chains of printing companies. I hope those who follow will be successful, too. T II K I U ft 5 TATI I. K I!
