We Pause to Honor

FORTUNATE are the students who, for the past
ten years, have had the pleasure and privilege
of knowing you.

Your ability as a teacher, your

efficiency as an organizer, and your wide range, of
interests have all been sources of inspiration to us.
We shall remember you as an understanding and
patient friend.

TW(J

The Purpose of Our Trip . . .
JT is springtime, all nature is alive, "we" are alive; Come! Follow us as we
tour the grounds and nod to the familiar faces of friends old and new.. It
will he much more fun to "be up and doing" than to sit idly here, wondering
what new adventures a boring world can hold. Come with us-we'll go up
past the office, possibly Mr. Schnurr will be in and we can have a word with
him. If he is out, we'll doubtless find Miss Thomas in his place. If we're lucky,
we may see the board of education and also drop in on Miss Berger or Mr.
Duffy. Of course, we cannot wander far before we encounter Seniors-they're
very much in evidence in these halls-you'll enjoy meeting them, too. Some
are very pleasant; others will be thoroughly preoccupied, but, at least, all will
make good specimen studies. As we pass, we'll see Freshmen peeking out daringly, here and there, and of course, we'll be unable to ignore the Sophomores
whose faces are beginning to bear the marks of wisdom and the Juniors whose
manner tells us at first glance that they haven't far to go until they "have arrived."
We'll find Miss Dake and Mr. Frank just off the lower hall and, if we hear
the blare of bugles and the roll of drums, we can be reasonably sure that Mr.
Ende is not far away. We'll not miss the basement, either. Mr. Frey and Miss
Bosselman might have something very interesting "cooked up" down there.
And if we don't see "Gus" before, we'll find him locking up at closing time.
Well, let's be off.

MARLIN M. SCHNURR

LET'S stop off first at Mr. Schnurr's office. We understand he has something
' to tell us concerning the publication of our annual.
We present, Mr. Schnurr:
The publication of this annual marks a departure from a custom which
has been in existence for many years. Previously the annual was published
every four years, a vote of the student body indicated overwhelming sentiment
in favor of producing the book each year. This represents the first book of
the yearly series.
The staff is to be congratulated in that it has been able to present a fine
book at a greatly reduced cost. This saving in turn was passed on in reducing
the cost to sponsors. It is hoped that the policy will be continued and that
eventually the book will become entirely self-supporting.
The philosophy of our school is built around two words: education and
service. Thus, if this book is to find its place it must add to the education of
those producing it and must provide a service for the student body and community. Exactly how these aims are to be completely realized is not known
but through conscientious effort and thought and helpful suggestions, the goal
will gradually be reached.

Greet THE ADMINISTRATORS

THE type of men elected to a school board have a great influence on the efficiency with which the school is conducted. Each post requires a man who
is highly respected and who has no selfish interest in the position.
Actions shall always he interpreted in the light of what is best for the
school as a whole, and individual desires must be submerged for the benefit
of aU.
Fortunately, our Board of Education recognized these essentials for successful school operation. As in all other fields, experience adds to the value
of the service one can render. These men have served for many years and their
efforts are sincerely appreciated.

HISTORY

THE Faculty of Wilmot High is very happy to
greet the friends of our school. We believe that
education js a part of life and that life should be
full. In accordance with our philosophy, we offer
as broad and varied a curriculum as is possible in
a school of Wilmot's proportions while recognizing
that experience has taught our society that there are
certain fundamentals of educational experience necessary to the development of every individual in a
democratically organized society.

ITS WORK

LATIN

WE

believe that education is essentially of a two"
fold nature. It is the inherent privilege and
duty of every individual to be a producer. This
entails the mastery of techniques and skills, of habits
and attitudes, as fundamental to the successful accomplishment of this end in our society. No less
important in a society of mass production and resultant leisure time activity is the place of every individual as a consumer. Wise consumption is no
less important than adequate production. Consequently it is our aim not only to teach the work
habits necessary to production but the social habits
desirable in consumption.

HE Wilmot High School was built in 1835 on ground donated by Mr. Benham.
It consisted of one upstairs room and two rooms downstairs. In 1879 the school
was enlarged. In 1904 it became a common district high school and, in 1905, there
were ten graduates.
In 1922 a petition for a gymnasium was circulated, and a
gymnasium was erected. A heating system for this was installed in 1924.
In 1912 parts of the townships of Salem, Randall, and Wheatland, were included
in the high school district. Two more rooms were added in 1918, and a modern hot
air heating system was installed.
On New Year's morning in 1933 the high school building was completely destroyed
by fire. The loss was deeply felt and classes had to be conducted in the gymnasium.
After some discussion it was finally decided to place the new building on the
same ground. Construction began in May, 1933, and the building was completed
in early fall. Landscaping and laying out of playgrounds and the athletic field took
place the folowing year.
In the fall of 1937 the Home Economics room was completed. In the fall of
1939 a new Agriculture room was built and also a public library was started by
the P. T.A.
The enrollment of the school has steadily increased to nearly two hundred
students. If the enrollment continues to increase it will soon be necessary to take
another step in enlarging the schooL

SCHOOL SONG -

(Tune-Washington Lee Swing Song)

And when those Wilmot High boys fall in line,
We're going to sing for them another time,
It's for the school that we all love so well We're going to yell and yell and yell and yell and yell
And then we'll fight, fight, fight, for everyone
United ali of our games are won,
And then we'll sing, sing, sing, sing, sing again-sing again,
Wilmot High.

The SEN I 0 R S Tell Their Story
GRADUATION, as it must to all seniors, has beckoned to the class of '40.
Four exciting years of school life will end soon, and so we leave this brief
history of our school life and good times.
The story begins on a bright fall day in 1936. About forty-five freshmen,
a little bewildered, entered the higher threshold of learning at Wilmot High.
At our first election we chose Norma Schlax, high keeper of the Frosh. Hardy
Schmalfeldt played second fiddle to her. Art Scott was elected secretary and
also given the keys to the treasury while Don Vander Zee was the student council representative. Another highlight in this year was when Lorraine Robers
was elected queen of the Carnival.
The second year came; the Sophomore Class held another election. We
decreed Don Vander Zee, president. That mental luminary, Art Scott, presided
in the vice-presidency. Manette Runge wielded a wicked pencil while secretary
and Hardy Schmalfeldt became student council representative. We were quite
busy putting on our minstrel which turned out to be a success.
The third year came up like a thunder-holt, when again the students exercised their suffrage and sagaciously reelected Don Vander Zee. Hardy Schmalfeldt became Vice-President. Norma Schlax carried every precinct and hecame secretary while Manette Runge ably represented us in the Student Council. We were quite busy for a while getting ready for our class play called
"Apron String Revolt." Everyone enjoyed it and declared it a success. Spring
soon rolled around and we began preparing for our prom. We finally decided
on a Hawaiian effect and quite laboriously began making palm trees, monkeys
and leis.
The fourth year soon rolled around and again we held our election. Hardy
Schmalfeldt, a man with varied abilities, became president. Art Scott, vicepresident, Dorothy Bergholz, secretary, and Lorraine Richards, student council
representative. We were very proud when Hardy Schmalfeldt was elected king
of the Carnival. After this, we dug in and began working on the annual and
also selected "Meet the Millionaire" to be our Senior Class play. We naturally
are quite busy now getting ready for class night and commencement which will
he soon.
Now that it is almost all over, we begin to look hack on four years of study
and social activities with pleasure, we wish we could relive them again.

oN September 7, 1937, there appeared at the Wilmot Union Free High School,
a group of somewhat bewildered young boys and girls. This group was
the present self-assured Junior Class.
The first opportunity for this group to assemble as one body was at its
first class meeting. From its ranks, the members chose Bob Elverman, Lloyd
Baysinger, and Evelyn Sarbacker officers to lead us, the present members, down
the somewhat obscure by-path of our year as "greenies."
The major event to take place in our lives as freshmen was initiation by
the Sophomores. As a whole our class stood up well under the taunts and jokes
of the upper classmen, taking "it" in good humor. Returning good for evil,
we gave a party for the Sophomores.
A goodly number of us were musically inclined, to Mr. Ende's delight, and
went out for the band. Also we had members who made their bids in the field
of athletics to uphold the prestige of Wilmot High. Spring arrived before we
knew it bringing our first year at Wilmot to a close.
The following fall found our class once more back on the trail with high
hopes and ambitions for the coming year. We were no longer green "freshies"
but were now mighty sophomores with a new group of freshmen to ridicule.
That year we elected Earl Richter, Elaine Vander Zee, Ardys Hegeman, and
Bill Davis as officers.
Instead of initiation we took pity on the Freshmen and gave a party for
them.
The first real chance our class had to work and cooperate together as a
body was in the production of the minstrel which we gave in March. In the
ticket campaign, the boys were pitted against the girls with the losing side
giving a party for the winning side. As the girls overwhelmed the boys in the
number of tickets sold, the boys were to give the party duly and legally held
in the County Park in May.
June soon rolled around bringing our sophomore year to a close.
The summer vacation went swiftly and September came. We were now
Juniors and looked down on the lower classmen with a full measure of scorn.
In the fall of 1939, we elected Bob Elverman, Johnnie Hefner, Herb Kolmos, and Dorothy Smith as our officers to uphold the prestige of the class in
the coming year.
Our class was now playing an important part in the functions of the school.
We were well represented first on the athletic teams, music groups, and other
organizations.
One of the most important events of the year was the Junior Class Play.
The play, "Relatives By Affection," was given March 8th before a goodly crowd.
We now turned our attention to the presentation of our assembly program.
Members of our class having talent offered thei.r services for the common cause.
We are now looking forward to the "prom" which we hope to make a
huge success.

THE following will concern the chronicles of the Sophomore Class of 1940:
In September, 1938, fifty unfamiliar "greenhorns" known as Freshmen enrolled in Wilmot High School, but when June arrived there were approximately
forty-seven survivors.
Mr. Frank and Miss Berger were our faculty advisors. By popular vote
Marge W ange was elected as class president; Evelyn Evans was elected vicepresident; Janet Fiesel was elected secretary-treasurer; and Arthur Carpenter
was chosen as student council representative. These officers proved to be very
efficient in their class administration. The candidates for carnival king and
queen were Dick Robers and Edna Hansen. The Sophomores weleomed the
Freshmen with a dance, but no initiation was held.
When spring came, the class presented its assembly program. The program was put over with a "hang" and we dare say it was the best assembly program given.
The year closed quietly and until September the Wilmot Union Free High
School was quiet again.
When September of 1939 arrived there were several missing from the ranks
of the present Sophomore Class, but there also were several new additions. At
the first class meeting, class officers were elected. Dick Robers was elected pres·
ident; Edna Hansen, vice-president; Evelyn Evans, secretary-treasurer; and
Andy Anderson was elected student council representative. Mr. Duffy was to
be our class advisor. Andy Anderson and Marge W ange were elected as candidates for carnival king and queen.
Initiation for the newly arrived freshmen was held and on the evening
of the same day a dance was given in honor of the Freshmen.
The second task was putting on a show for the Carnival. Mr. Duffy worked
hard to make it a success and he was richly rewarded.
The third and biggest task was to put on a minstrel. The class decided
to substitute a musical comedy called "Apoplexy for the Teacher" for the traditional minstrel. A committee of four students, Miss Dake and Miss Barnes,
and Mr. Ende worked out a very successful play.
When the Sophomore Class presented its assembly program, it repeated
its last year's triumph with a big success, a German band farce-comedy.
The assembly program was the last big claos undertaking for the Sophomores. As we go to press the class is helping to put out this annual and after
that we will just wait for old "Father Time" to convert us into juniors.

THERE was a great tumult on September 5, 1939 in Wilmot High School.
It was the first day of school. Fifty-three freshmen entered the school on
that day. We were very "green" and some of us were just a bit frightened.
After the first bell rang and all was quiet we heard those baffling rules and
regulations which we were to hear so often later. Then there was registration
and we went to some of our classes. All through the day we listened with awe
to our new teachers and also to some very superior upper classmen.
But such was not to be our life for long. We elected Phyllis Taylor as class
president and John Sokolski as secretary-treasurer. We also elected Lenard
Fischer as our representative to the student council. Our class members joined
B. A., G. A. A., The Future Farmers, and the Home Economics Club. Many
of them took part in musical activities, including band, girls' chorus and boys'
chorus.
At one of our first class meetings a sophomore class member came with a
message. On a certain day we were to come to school dressed in queer clothes
and prepared for the worst. It was initiation! As the Freshmen were brave
fellows, they survived the day and by night were quite ready for the dance
given in their honor. On February 16 we repaid the Sophomores with a dance
given in their honor.
When the time for the school carnival arrived, the Freshmen gave their
wholehearted cooperation. Competition in selling tickets was keen, but on
the night of the carnival we had the honor of having our candidate, Phyllis
Taylor, crowned queen of the carnival. Our candidate for king, Frank Derler,
served as gentleman in waiting. The carnival was a real success.
Later in the year we welcomed four more freshmen to our class.
their help we put on a very successful assembly program.

With

And so, as we, "the Class of '43" leave the Freshman class to become sophomores, we will always remember our freshman year as one of hard work, fine
achievements, and lots of fun.

When the season started, our chances did not look so good
inasmuch as there were only four lettermen back from the
previous year. Under the coaching of Coach Frey and the
assistance of Coach Duffy, the squad quickly rounded up
into a good team. Our start was poor, for we lost our
first game and to make matters worse one of our regular
ends was put out for the rest of the season with an operation. However, in our next game we did what no Wilmot
High School team had done before, beat Mukwanago. We
played two games under lights. This was Wilmot's first
experience with night games. \Ve thought it was a great
success.
The team will lose seven regular players by graduation:
Art Wellman, Warren Pohlman, Aaron Merten, Art Scott,
Don Vander Zee, Glen Hollister and Chet Boyington are
leaving.
At the start of the season of basketball there was a squad
of inexperienced players with only three lettermen from
the previous year. The team shaped up rapidly under
Coach Frey. The team was strong on defense but weak
on offense. Although the scoring record of the team was
not high, it played a clean game and was always considered a threat.
We look forward to a much better season next year because
it takes time to get used to the style of ball coached and
the boys back for next year will be used to the style coached
by Manney Frey. So keep your attention on next years
fighting basketball team and we do not think you will be
disappointed.
We regret the losing of the four seniors on the team and
wish they were back next year. The seniors are Don Vander Zee, Art Scott, Hardy Schmalfeldt, and Glen Hollister.
The spring found us headed for another baseball championship under the direction of Coach Duffy. To start us off,
Skeets Oetting pitched a no-hit game against our traditional
rival, Waterford. We won the conference championship.
Our success was due to the competitive spirit of the players
and the good cooperation at all times, although the individual skill of some of the players helped us over the tough
spots.
Merlin Jahns, Ken Schenning, Don Burmeister, and Charles
Goff are regulars who will not return next season. However, we have a goodly squad of players coming back and
we need not be weak in any position. We are hoping for
another championship next season.
Look! There is another W. What is a W? How do you
get one? What do they mean to person owning one?
A "W" is the prize offered for athletic achievement and
anyone winning a letter is eligible to joint the organization
honoring lettermen, the W Club. But the last question asked
is "What do they mean the wearer?" Well, to answer that
you will have to earn a letter yourself and be eligible for the
W Club to know the thrill and keen feeling of self-pride
which comes with the earning of a letter or W.

THIRTY-ONE:

The band is of fifty-two pieces and is playing its first year
in Class C classification. Last year the band won a first
division award in concert and marching. It sight read in
a higher classification and won a second award.
Many solo and ensemble players entered the festival from
the band and fared very well last year. Many band members can proudly display a chestful of medals.
The band is proud of the new uniforms and is always trying
to improve the magnificent picture it presents when playing
and marching.
The band makes many appearances during the school year
at football and basketaball games, pep rallies, class plays,
the --.nnual concert, and a trip to some school. (Custer,
ApL·il 5, 1940.)
The band has progressed very much the last few years. A
full compliment of instruments is the goal of our band and
money is being raised to get them and replace old, wornout
ones now in use.
The Concert Chorus is a group of people who have special
singing ability from the boys and girls choruses and also
a desire to do advanced work in concert singing for their
own enjoyment and for bettering the quality of vocal work
in the school and vicinity.
The chorus was organized in January of 1939 by popular
demand from students who wanted an advanced type of
singing over that which had been traditional in the school.
The enrollment was small but the spirit was great and that
was all that was necessary to get a basic chorus. Rehearsals
were scheduled for once a month but we worked in several
extra sessions. That group won a second division award
at the music festival at Milton.
The enrollment in the chorus is now forty-eight or almost
twice that of last year. Again we are planning to enter the
music festival, but in the accompanied chorus classification .

The Girls Chorus is just a group of girls who wish to sing
for the fun of singing. Mr. Ende is the director. A main
function is to help the Boys Chorus put on an operetta in
the spring of the year.
At the beginning of the year it sang optional songs and
exercises. After Christmas it started working on the operetta. After this the group will study music theory.

The Boys Chorus is a group of boys singing for the fun
and enjoyment they get from singing. Their director is
Mr. Ende.
With the help of the Girls Chorus, they put on an operetta.
All may partake in this event sponsored to put some money
in the music treasury.
It has rehearsals once a week. Optional songs and exercises
are sung as part of the work. After the operetta the group
.studies music theory as applied to singing.

In order that Wilmot High would have an official student
body capable of a certain amount of self-regulation, the
student council was organized. It consists of the following
persons this year: Art Scott representing the W Club; Don
Van Liere, Dramatics Club; Dorothy Smith, Junior Class;
Harry Swensen, Band; Marge Richter, Home Economics;
Lois Gates, Girls Chorus; Dick Schenning, F. F. A.; Marge
Wange, French Club; Lenard Fisher, Freshmen Class; Lorraine Richards, Senior Class; Kenneth Jeffris, A Capella;
Andy Anderson, Sophomore Class; Manette Runge, Commercial Club; Jack Reyer, Boys Chorus; Hardy Schmalfeldt,
B. A. A.; Ken J effris, Concert Chorus.
A class or an organization may sponsor any party with the
consent of the Student CounciL The purchase of the loudspeaker was made possible through the Student Council.

JUDGING TEAM . . .

Part of the work of the department of agriculture is the
development of judging teams which compete in the state
contest in Madison. Various types and classes of farm
animals and agricultural products are included in the contest ,thereby providing a wide range of experience.
During the trip, time is provided to visit many places of
interest in Madison and attend a Big Ten football game.
Thus this trip proves to be a pleasing combination of business and pleasure. Many of the boys plan on making this
trip several times during their four years in school.

COMMERCIAL CLUB . . .

The Commercial Club was organized in 1929 for the purpose
of creating more interest in and furthering ability in commercial abilities. The club has always had a good membership and has always been very active. We are proud to
say that our club has usually more money on hand than
any other organization.
Our greatest accomplishment and perhaps the greatest source
of our money has been the sponsoring of the school paper.
An issue is presented each month. Besides all the very interesting articles in the paper as the editorials, class news,
special articles, sports page, and the funny page, there is the
popular "Gossip Page." Our editor of the school paper this
year is Dorothy Bergholz.
The awarding of the typing pins each year is sponsored by
our club. Our most recent accomplishment is the purchase
of an adding machine to be used by all students.

The Future Farmers is a national organization with state
and local chapters. The members of our local chapter have
shown much enthusiasm in project work, pest eradication,
judging team work, and social events.
Each member of the organization has a farm practice program. This gives him an opportunity to put into practice
what he has learned in agriculture.
Every winter a pest eradication contest is conducted by the
F. F. A. Prizes for the winners are donated by business
men of the community.
We have one monthly meeting for business and one monthly
meeting for education and recreation.

One of our newest clubs in school, the Home Economics
Club, was organized in 1939 with a group of about ten
members. The purpose of the club was to create more
interest in home making. We organized again this year
and increased the membership to about twenty.
Last year, the club sponsored a banquet for the county
baseball association and were very pleased in the outcome.
Before the end of the school term we plan to have enough
money by selling candy, besides what we now have, to
buy drapes for the home ec. room. After we have this
completed we shall feel that we really have accomplished
a purpose.
In 1929 the Dramatics Club was organized for the purpose
of furthering interest and ability in dramatics. Although
it has not stuck so very closely to its purpose, but has become more of a social affair, we have at each of our meetings some little procedure to try to improve our abilities
and knowledge of dramatics. Some of us are hesitant in
doing some things we are asked to do, but really it is fun.
Our biggest feature is the play we present each year at
the carnival. They are usually quite a success, and we try
to have something different each year.
At our meetings, after the business and entertainment is
finished, we dance for a while and then are served refreshments. Apparently everyone enjoys our meetings and is
glad when the next one comes.
The G. A. A. is an all girls club organized for the purpose
of furthering interest in athletics. All freshmen are invited to join the club and at the first social meeting are
initiated by the old members.
It has been a social, as well as an athletic club. The monthly
meetings have consisted of sleighrides, rollerskating, hiking,
swimming and similar activities. Refreshments are usually
served and sometimes we have dancing after that, if it is
not too late.
Members of the club may earn school letters by participation in athletic events of all types. We have a point
system by which each event or activity in swimming or
skating is given so many points for as many hours of activity. When we have earned our required points we are
awarded a letter.
The Boys Athletic Association is open to all the boys in
the school who wish to be members. The objectives of
the group are: to provide a complete program of athletics
from the beginning of the school year to the end; to give
every boy an opportunity to participate in some form of
athletics. We sponsor these major sports: Football, Basketball, and Baseball, and help to develop a physical-education program. We have had a successful season; and
the plays as outlined for next year by Coach Frey provide:
The development of A and B squads in each sport, and a
more complete intramural program for those who are not
and do not wish to become members of such squads. Our
association stands for teams that fight to win, that play
clean, that live right, that know how to lose; but always
remember, they represent Wilmot High SchooL

BATON TWIRLERS
A new active group in school is the Baton
Twirling Club of eighteen members, who are
really artists of dizzy fingers as they gyrate
their silver sticks in beauteous formations and
tricky, complicated stunts. The twirling club
was organized in September, 1939, by Mr.
Ende, and has practiced Thursday after school.
The group is a spectacular group and adds to
any program in which it appears.
A drum-major for the band is chosen from

FRENCH CLUB
President .......... MANETTE RUNGE
Vice-President ...... DoROTHY SMITH
Secretary ......... ARDYCE HEGEMAN
Student Council ...... MARGE WANGE

the group and six best twirlers will enter the
twirling contest at the music festival.
At present the twirlers do not have uniforms,
but it is hoped that six special drum-majorette outfits will be purchased.
The group has twirled at football and basketball games, and also for concerts.
It is hoped that the school will see more of
this worthy group in the future.

The newest organization in the high school campus is the
French Club of about fifteen members. It was established
through the enthusiasm of a group of girls in school and
through the wiling help of Miss Thomas.
The purpose is to learn to speak French. They have arranged to correspond with girls in France. The letters we
receive are written in French, and the fun is trying to
translate them.
The club is new and has a very good start: In the coming
years we hope to become a large group and really know
our French.

DANCING CLASS
In October of 1939, Miss Bessie Barnes began
her work as a dancing instructor at Wilmot.
Miss Barnes teaches many types of dancing
and as her work is popular many of us have
learned new steps, and the Freshmen have
been privileged to learn how to dance before
they become seniors! In order that all might
put to use their knowledge of dancing, Miss
Barnes has sponsored a number of dances in
the school gym. To one of the dances the

CHEER

whole school was invited and another time
the Dramatics Club was invited. We were
privileged to have Ross Whitmire, of Montana,
who taught us how to square dance.
The dancing class has been represented in the
junior and freshman assembly programs and
also played a big part in the Operetta. All
in all the class has been successful and we
are sure it will continue to be.

LEADERS

At the beginning of the year a large number
came out for cheerleading. They were drilled
for each game. They all would cheer at the
games but a few each time would put on a
pep meeting.
This pep meeting was held before each home
game to arouse some school spirit. The cheerleaders always arranged it.
This year, some of the cheerleaders received
uniforms. Each class elected two cheerleaders. Both senior and junior cheerleaders received uniforms but only one sophomore
cheerleader received a uniform. The fresh-

men were just drilled for the following year.
Each cheerleader made her own uniform. It
was made of red wool flannel, lined with
white. The uniforms are similar to skating
outfits.
The uniforms gave the cheerleaders more
confidence for cheering. Every cheerleader
has an attractive uniform to work for from
now on.
A letter is given for cheerleading. This year
the cheerleaders have worked very hard to
reach their goal. They hope to continue.
