of seeing that the wheels of public institutions keep running efficiently and smoothly.
These men quietly and unassumingly do their job. The members of the Board of Education of the Union Free High School are such men. They have sacrificed many hours of
time and thought in order to provide an outstanding high school for your community.

To become a worth while citizen in any community, it is important to take an active part
in community affairs. Organizations at school help individuals to
learn how to work together for
the good of the cause and to develop leadership through accepting
the responsibilities of officers of
various clubs and organizations.
Our seniors have done an excellent
job in these capacities at school,
and feel adequate to assume simi-lar challenges in the future.

A part of each day is spent for
leisure, a time when the individual
is free to do the things he enjoys
most. To be able to sing, play a
musical instrument, and dance,
helps one to use leisure 'time more
richly. You will note that many of
the seniors have taken advantage
of these opportunities.

Congress convened September 9, 1946 and it meant the last year of
our term of office. We represented the upper house, consequently .many important
responsibilities had to be shouldered by our members.
Scientific research, social
problems, historical events and vocational matters we•re discussed in regular daily
meetings·
The first special meeting was called to elect the officers and appoint
comrn,ittees. Marilyn Axtell was chosen president, Archie Burns vice-president,
Esther Epping secretary and treasurer, and Arnold Seistrup student council member. A committee was appointed to recommend the editors and business managers to prepare the Congressional record. This special group was responsible fo·r
planning the annual yearbook and to raise funds in order to pay for the engravings and printing. Arnold Seistrup and Audrey Joerndt were elected editors
with Dick Robinson and Mary Seitz the business managers.
The first social event o£ the year took place November 1, when the entire s.chool sponsored a· gay, colorful, and entertaining carnival. The seniors
reigned supreme because our candidates, Eugene Blasi and Mary Seitz were elected
king and queen of the carnival.
Our Seniors were well represented in the extra curricular activities offered in the school, football, basketball, baseball and track included many of the
Senior boys. The music organization, dramatic club, commercial club, and others
functioned so well because of the experienced people from our class. The .athletic
teams earned championship ratings, the music department has given several people

As this goes to press, plans are being made for graduation, the last important social event of the year." Committees are busy gathering talent for a hilarious "class night" and engaging speakers and appropriate music for the night of
graduation. This will mean the end of our: term of office at the Wilmot High
School. In our hearts we have a feeling of regret as we look to the future for
security and hope that we may accomplish our aims.

Juni-o4 e~aM.
On the ninth day of September, 1946, about sixty Congressmen returned for the third year in their term of office. It required several days to become adjusted to new routines, and to become familiar with the problems Juniors
must face. During the first week, a meeting was called to elect reliable and capa~le s<tudents to preside at all special meetings to be held later during this session.
November first was a day set aside for one of the most interesting and
colorful state occasions of the year. It was the day set aside for an all school
carnival. Each of the four congressional groups nominated ·candidates to be elected as King and Queen of the carnival. Don Hackbarth and Lima Bernatas were
chosen as the Junior representatives. In spite of a very heated campaign, the
Junior were elected to second place in the contest. "Showboat", a very entertaining minstrel was presented by the dramatically talented members of this class.
A special committee was appointed to make a tentative selection of ·designs for a class ring. After much deliberation, two rings were chosen, and the
entire class was then given an opportunity to make ·the final dt:cision of the design they liked most~ The "Panther", our school emblem, was engraved on both
sides of the mounting, which adds a bit of distinction to the rings.
Final examinations ended the first half of the congressional session.
Immediately following the examinations, try outs were held in order to select
the best talent for the play, "A Date With Judy." Those chosen were as follows:
Judy Foster . . . . . .

The most formal social event of the year 1s the Junior prom. Committees were selected to take care of invitations, decorations, the orchestra, and refreshments. Soft lights, beautiful music, co)orful and beautiful decorations added
much to make this an event that will be long remembered.
Our class was well represented in the music department, athletics, and
many of the other organiza:tions. We plan to continue in these fields of extra
curricular activities, during our Senior year. Some of our members have been
given special recognition for outstanding work in their chosen organization.
June sixth, a motion for adjournment is in order, then after adjournrrtetit
we anticipate a pleasant summer vacation. In September we plan to return to
finish our last year in our term of office.

The sophomores met in their second congressional session,
September ninth, 1946. After registration, regular daily meetings were
held ,to study and discuss problems dealing with English, foreign affairs, agriculture, homemaking and biological sciences.
A special meeting was called to elect the presiding officers. Joe
Merten was chosen for president, Carole Fox, vice-president, Helen
Thompson secretary and treasurer and Bob Barhyte student council representative.
The latter two weeks of October were spent in making preparations for a carnival, one of the most important social events of the year.
Bob Barhyte and Dorla \Vickman were elected delegates to represent
the sophomores in the royal race for king and queen of the carnival.
"The Glittering -Knife", a heart-throbbing murder mystery, was written and produced by the class under the direction of Miss Newell. The
thrilling performance of Dick Jones, Jim Gleason and others held the
audience spellbound.
The High School P. T. A. was entertained, with an amateur
performance of a fitting Christmas story at their December meeting.

This developed because of a study of drama in the sophomore English
classes. Shortly after this event school was adjourned for the Christmas
recess.
The sophomores, along with the dther classes, returned on the
second day of January, to continue with new business after finishing all
old business. Many students put in some overtime, in order to master
the semester examinations which were scheduled for the latter part of
January.
The members of the class have been well represented in other
organizations and activities, such as music, athletics, G. A. A., .B. A. A.,
and commercial club. Many of them have shown abilities which will be
duly recognized in another. year or two.
The sophomore comm]ttee is still in session as these foregoing
even:ts are being recorded. There is still some unfinished business such
as contests at the field meet and final examinations. Motion for adjournment will be in order the sixth day of June, which will be followed .with three nion:ths of vacation. Next September this class will
serve their third session, as Juniors in the Wilmot High school.

The members of the Freshmen class represented the newly
elected congressmen of the lower house. We registered September ninth,
1946 and then proceeded wi'th the problems that our group had to
solve. We were not familiar with the procedures and the routines that
make high school run so smoothly, so the first week or two, much time
was spent to learn all the rules and regulations. Since most of us came
from small rural aQ_d graded schools, it took considerable time for us
to become properly adjusted to our new venture in life.
We had several special meetings during the year, the first being
called to elect our presiding officers.

val. Our amateur program for the evening was a huge, success. Bruce
Payton kept the audiences in stitches with his hilarious performance.
Football games, basketball games, class tournaments, parties
and plays were all forms of entertainment which kept our first year at
high school from being dull. Many members of our class joined clubs,
organizations and athletic teams and we hope to gain recognition for
our accomplishments in these activities during the following three ··years.
There are still a few weeks remaining in 'this session of Congress. At the present time we are eagerly looking forward to the Junior
prom because for many of us it will be the first formal occasion. Final
examinations follow a couple of weeks later and that will mean spendi{lg
a few extra hours in order ·to pass the tests. We are all looking forward to
our summer vacation.
In September 1947 we will return to be the sophomore class
of· the Union Free High School.

For the first time in the history ~f football, at Wilmot High, the Panthers
annexed an unshared conference title.
It came as the result of four wins and one tie in the conference and one loss
m a non-conference tilt.
Due to a polio scare, school began a week late so the "Panthers" were pressed
for time in preparing £or the first game. In just two short weeks a team had to be
organized, conditioned, and taught the fundamentals of individual and team play. Friday night, September 23, came the first chance to test that which had been accomplished in a fortnight. The sad answer was "not enough". The Panthers su£fered their
lone defeat at the hands o£ Walworth to the tune of 9-0. A touchdown, resulting from
blocked kick, the point after touchdown and a safety gave Walworth the margin
of victory.

a

"Bear down" was the keynote as the Panthers drilled in preparation for the
first conference encounter at Union Grove, the following week. Their detemination
paid off to the tune of 3 3-0 and the first gap was spanned. on what proved to be the
road to the championship. Five touchdowns and three for five extra points gave the
Panthers their total for the afternoon.
The next Friday found the Panthers rolling over Waterford with little oppositiOn. Once again the final score was 3 3-0 and five touch:lowns plus three points
again provided the margin for victory.
Homecoming was on Friday the 11th, against East Troy. The usual enthusiasm
prevailed _and once again the Panthers were victorious. The margin however, fell to a
mere 7-0.
Pete Pohlman, regular left half back, had the misfortune of a serious injury

when a gun he! was holding accidentally discharged and a bullet went through his
foot. This meant that he would be unable to play the remainder of the football season.
Lloyd Merrill and Jim Rudolph, two other seniors, took over the lef.t half back sp()t
for the rest- of the year .

. :Our game with Rochester proved to be our toughest contest. The first half
ended, Rochestet 7, Wilmot nothing. The Panthers came out the second half determined •to win this game and scored in the third quarter. The touchdown and extra
point tied the s~ore. The final score was 7-7.
The list game was played with Mukwonago at Mukwonago. The Panthers
breezed through; to an easy victory. The score, 40-0. This victory put the Panthers
on top of the· standings of the Southeastern Conference with four wins, one tie, and
no defeats.
As we,look back over the season much credit must be given •to Mr. Frey and
Mr .. Anderson, who worked so patiently coaching and organizing the team.
The letter winners were, first the seniors who are finished with ·their football
days at Wilmot,: Capt. Ted Skora, L. E.; Phil Brown L. T., Rich Robinson, C., Arnold · ·
Seistrup' L. G., Tom Merten R. G., Ronald Gebhardt R. T., Lloyd Halladay R. T ..,

Returning letteri men, the basis of next years team, Capt. elect Dick Richter R. H.,
Frank Andrekusi F., Paul Swartz R. E., and Glenn Nelson C.
Thus we close the door on the first unshared Panther championship with a
hope for another next year.

On Monday foi!owing the last foot bail game, about 50 boys reported for practice in basketball. Only three, Capt. elect John Schnurr, Don Fischer, and Paul Swartz, were lettermen. Out of the
fifty, five had to be sifted out in just fifteen days to take the floor fm the first game, besides the five
substitutes who are so important to a winning squad.
The first week was rugged but it is this kind o£ practice which proved to b~ the ground work
for the second successive conference basketball championship.
Just as in football, Union Grove was the first victim on the Panther's victory trail. The team
came through literally smothering the Groves 5 0-9. This smashing victory gave warning to the rest of
the conference that Wilmot was hard to beat. East Troy became another victim to the Panthers to the
tune of 3 3 _,16 in a very rough encounter. Rochester, who put up a spirited yet incapable opposition
was defeated by a score of 42-17.
Mukwonago up to this time was undefeated, but the Panthers gained superiority in the conference by finishing that game with a score of 6 3-3 3. This was the highest score a Wilmot basketball
team ever attained. Grays"ake furnished the oppos:tion for the next encounter. Their greatly inexperienced team bowed to the Panthers with the result, 66-24. The following game was against our
arch rival Waterford. They put a spirited team on the floor but were defeated soundly by a far superior Panther five. The final tally being 67-3 5. The first half of the conference season ended with the
Panthers easily defeating Norris Farm by a score of 57-22. Talk of a championship began to float
around the school as the Panthers led at the half-way post with a conference record o£ 6 wins and no
losses. During the Christmas holidays the annual alumni game was played. The Panthers lost a hard
fought game by a score of 31-29 to one of the best alumni quintets ever assembled.
The first game after Ne'w Year was part of a non-conference dbuble-header at Walworth.
The Panthers were not in their usual good form, and thereby lost to Walworth in an over time with
a sCore of 41-40. The next night another double h~ader was played at Waterford. Here the teani re~

deemed itself by defeating Williams Bay 43-34 in a very rugged game.
On January 10 the conference season reopened with
Union Grove at Wilmot. Another easy victory was taken
from the Gravers by a score o£ 53-23. East Troy, the next
opponent, furnished feeble opposition against the mighty
Panthers onslaught of baskets to the tune of 49-25. Rochester tried to mar a perfect conference record in the last
home game. However, the Panthers came through with flying
colors with a final score of 51-28. This helped to make
homecoming a very happy occasion.
The game with Mukwonago was especially significant to Wilmot and the fans. If Wilmot won this game they
would automatically clinch the conference title, and also be
certain of a place in the Elkhorn Regional play off. This
proved to be the hardest conference game of ·the year, the
Panthers winning, however, by a score of 60-48. The highest
score and the grestest margin of victory in the history of the
sch:r?:ol was experienced by the Panthers when they swamped
Grayslake by a 53 point margin. The actual soore being 7926.
With the conference championship in, the bag the
Panthers groomed for tournament play. During the intervening weeks Norris Farm was defeated 44-36 and Waterford
was trounced again, this time 4 3-3 '2 to end the conference
season. The re::ord showed 12 wins and no defea•ts. Due to the
fact that the enrollment o£ the school passed the 200 mark

Once again the Panthers have come through
with, an undefeated season and the Southeastern
baseball championship. They have brought home
the eleventh championship in fifteen tries.
Lead by Captain Bud Richter, the Wilmot

a few days of practice, they met East Troy on

The Panthers collected 24 hits and East Troy

With half the season over the Panthers had
a record of 4 wins and no losses. The Aggies at
Rochester were whipped with a score of 7-4, the
Panthers collecting 9 safe blows while the Aggies only had four.
The following week the Panthers traveled to
McHenry to play another non-conference game.
With fine pitching and hitting the McHenry
team was defeated by a score of 7-2.
Norris Farm competed with the Panthers in
the next conference game which resulted in a
score of 12-2 in favor of the Wilmot team.
For the last game of the ceawn the Panthers
traveled to Mukwonago and won with a score of
8-1.
This closed the season with eight wins and
no losses. Much credit is due to excellent team
work and the controlled pitching of Jim Rudolph
and Bill Schnurr. Both had four wins and no
losses to their credit.
The~ lettermen were Capt. Bud Richter, Bill
Schnurr, John Heizler, and Robert Jahns.

Last spring track was introduced for the
first time at Wilmot High. There was a minimum of time for training due to baseball and a
late start but the boys worked very hard. We
entered only in the district meet at Neenah.
Due to several accidents during training and
unfortunate luck at the meet, we did not place
in the top brackets. Despite this Bud Richter
placed fourth in the 100 yard dash, Bill Schnurr
fourth in the mile run and the 880 relay team
won fourth place, including Bud Richter, Ted
Skora, Dick Richter, and Frank Andrekus. Other
entrants were Ted Skora 440 yard dash, Frank
Andrekus 200 yard dash, Phil Brown shot put,
and Bud Richter broad jump.
No letters were given for track, but this
year it was voted a major sport and letters will
be given to those who earn them in 1947.

Panthers experienced their worst defeat with a score of 6423. The next night we defeated Whitewater in the consolation-play-off 29-27 and then came back to win the consolation championship by defeating Oconomowoc in a real thriller with a score of 39-38. Thus the season ended with a
record of 17 wins and 2 losses, a conference championship
and a Regional Consolation championship.
The scoring for the year found Dick Krieger leading with 270 points, John Schnurr 158, Jim Rudolph 150,
Art Ericksen 147, Ted Skora 125, Don Fischer 41 and Paul
Swartz 44. Credit must be given to Coach Frey for the
splendid work he did in developing this ball club.
The graduating senior lettermen are Captain John
Schnurr, Jim Rudolph, Don Fischer, Ted Skora, Art Ericksen,
and Alva Paddock. Those who will return are Captain Elect
Paul Swartz and Dick Krieger.
Thus the final page is written in the scorebook of
the 1946-7 season by saying to those who are returning,
keep up the good work next year.

The scene is at the Prophecy Lodge in northern Wisconsin. It is about nine
P. M. Three distinguished gentlemen are seated around the lodge table. June seventh,
ninetieen hundred and fifty seven is the. date, just ten years after graduation of a
mighty senior class. The three men are Mr. Rebecik, president of the First National
Bank of Chicago; Mr. Ludwig, president of the University of Wisconsin; and Mr.
Robinson, business manager of the Standard Oil Company. These men are waiting for
the class mates they graduated with ten years ago. For you see, this is a reunion of those
very people. Let's look in on those three men. Their conversation should be most interesting. Yes, Dick is speaking.
Robinson: "As I was saying, Ernie, they should all be arriving soon."
Rebecik::
"I teU you Dick, it's going to be fine to see them again, fine."
Robinson: "I hope they can all nuke it, but I'm afraid that won't be possible. Art
Bushing has an important conference in Moscow, you know."
Ludwig:
"Yes, I hear he is working on a new plan for peace. Fine if he can put it
across, fine."
Rebecik:
"\'\Tell, you know how those things go. Gerry Berry has to sing at Carnegie
Hall tonight, am I right, Leo?"

"Right, Ernie, charming girl. She's done well. And that husband of hers,
what ever is he doing? Pete Pohlman is his name, I believe."
"Photographer. Works for 'LIFE'. "
"I always knew he would do well with those cameras. Remember how he
worked on the annual?"
"And Ted Skora, what ever became of him?"
"Why D. R., I can see that you are not up on your sports. He is playing
short stop for the Chicago Cubs. He muffed a play the other day, but his
hitting has shown up well."
"Why then Ted will face Jim Rudolph. Jim is pitching for the New York
Yankees. Should be a good world series."
"Talking about our old class mates makes me recall so many memories
of Wilmot."
"True, true. Remember Floyd Gyger? I hear he is a salesman for Surge
Miller, and doing quite well, too."
"Did you see Ruth Cook pass by the bank last week? She had twins tagging
along, that makes eight now, doesn't it?"
"Say, here's something you haven't heard-Thaine Lasco is driving racers
in Indianapolis. He's using the motor from his old Studebaker."
"No, You're kidding! Well, I can see why."
"Have you been over to Joerndt's store lately? It's five stories now, you
know how they kept adding on."
"Arnold Seistrup is editor of the Chicago Tribune now-Colonel A. Seistrup
they call him."
"Yes, that's what Phil Brown was telling me. Phil has a s·cientific farm.
Something about cows giving malted milk."
~'He has? Well, I'll have to stop around and see him some time."
"Marilyn Axtell, Richard Otto, and Eugene Blasi have developed a nice
business. Blasi operates, Marilyn gives them the necessary care so they will
recover. If the patients do make the progress, Richard Otto comes shoveling along to make the. plans for the inevitable."
"Marilyn's sister, Marion, was so taken up with the work on the school
paper that she has worked her way to the top. She is now editor of the
Saturday Evening Post."
.
.
"Well, good for her. Listen Dick, have you heard anything from Ronald
Gebhardt?"
. "Yes, I got a letter from him only last week. He is in the sheep raising
business with his father now."
"Is that so? And Bertha Thompson; what ever became of her?"
"Oh she's still teaching school. Going to be married soon."
"Whose ·the lucky man?" .
"Yes, another classmate, Art Erickson. Art is general manager of the
Cvown Cap Company."
"In the chips, huh?"
"Yes, Art always did like the feel of the green stuff between his fingers."
"Tom Merten has beeome quite a success., his new car "The Merten" has
.made quite a hit with the public."
"Well, will you look at this in the paper here? New show to open on Broadway. "Arsenic and Old Lace" starring Mary Seitz."
"Should be a good play, I remember when it was put on at Wilmot."
"And here's something else. John Schnurr and his sweet trumpet opened
:it the Palmer House."
"Can you imagine, Dick, I thought he would be playing pro-football."
"I made a long distance call the other day; and guess who my operator
was?"
"Who?"
"Lois Conrad, we had quite a talk. She said she was coming to the reunion

~t
~.:,.1,--------+-----~

tonight. Since that strike in '47 she has been making 11 lot of money.''
"Fine, fine. It will be good to see her again."
"Leo, do you know that Carolyn Schmidt is making ·a tour of the world;
she ha~ become famus with that piano of he-rs.''
Ludwig:
"I haven't heard anything from Marge Faber, Doris Pacey, Marion Pringle
litely. They are all married, hope they will show up here tonight.''
Robinson: "I'm sure they will, they were always reliable people. Am I right Ernie?".
"Oh but definitely, Dick. Fine people, fine.''
Rebicek:
Ludwig:
"Alva Paddock is introducing a new bill in the Senate. Something about
grading a road near his house in Paddocks Lake."
Robinson: "I hear Chick Rodak is up for election again this year. I've never seen a
better dog catcher than he."
.
"Have you seen any of Marcelyn Connell's paintings? Many of' them are
Rebicek:
at the Art Institute.''
Robinson: "Barbara Jenkinson posed for one of her paintings not long ago. That's
the first I've heard of her for a long time.''
"I ran' into John Fox about a month ago, he has his own farm.''
Ludwig:
"Lucille Rohn and Jack Pfeiffer have just bought out the Corks Works,
Rebicek:
they are living a happily married life."
Robinson: "Remember Delbert Packman, he acquired a lot of money somehow and
put it: into the movie industry,"
"That's quite a surprise, if D~lbert comes tonight we will have to tell him
Ludwig:
to look up Alice Nelson. She has a ranch out west and almost controls the
ca'ttle industry."
Robinson: "Is that so? And did you know Barbara Edwards is on the stage?
"Yes, .that's right Dick-she played two years in New York.''
Rebicek:
"Well,! all this talk about plays brings to mind ·the bo ok I read not long
Ludwig:
ago "The Chicken and I" by June Hackbert. It was a·:best seller in New
York.':'
"She's been a great success. Esther Epping is also writing another book." ·
Rebicek:
"Yes, her latest just came out, "The Habits of the Platapuss."
Ludwig:
Robinson: "My little boy Tommy is in the third grade now, and guess who hc:;.has
for a teacher? Arlene Scott. Tommy says she hardly ever gives them any
homework."
"Well; can you blame her?"
,Ludwig:
Rebicek: "I stopped at Torry's house the other day to see if Marilyn was coming tonight, but she was out of town. Her husband, Lloyd Merrill said that she
is traveling. Lloyd doesn't work, he retired you know. Made a lot of
money on the stock market.
Robinson; "Marilyn Holtdorf should be here tonight. She has a nice family of boys.
Al~ost enough to put a team on the baseball field."
"What about Pauline Fusello, did she finish college?"
Ludwig:
"Oh yes, she's an attorney at law in New York. Love-bloom, Lovebloom,
Rebicek:
Lovebloom and Fusello."
Robinson: "WelL look the.re it's after ten, we've been talking over an hour."
Ludwig: - "Cant• imagine why no one has shown up yet. HELLO, there's a car now."
Robinson: "Why yes, Leo you're right, wonder who it can be?"
Rebicek:
''It's Don Fischer and some more of the gang."
Fischer:
"Hello everybody, am I late?"
Robinson: "No, in fact you're the first to arrive. What have you been doing with
yourself these past ten years?"
Fischer:
"Why Dick, haven't you heard, I bought out the Jefferson Ice Company.''
Robinson: "Well I'll be darned--".
·
And so we leave this happy crowd to talk over old times. The remaining
·school chums sho1!Lld be arriving soon. I only wish we could all ·take part in this party
at the Prophecy Lodge. So, until next year--BON VOYAGE.
