Graduation from high school represents one of the important
events in a person's life. You will probably have to make several
rather significant decisions within the next few months. Included
among these are answers to such questions as: Shall I continue my
formal education in college? Shall I enter some branch of the Military
Services? Shall I seek employment, and if so, what kind of work do
I wish to do.
Regardless of how you answer these questions you will find that
your routine of living will change a great deal. Your learning and
other experiences in high school will be of great value to you. You
will miss the happy, relatively carefree days of high schoot but will
enjoy the challenge of tomorrow.
We hope you will face the future boldly/ and that with courage,
determination and confidence make the greatest use of your talents
for your own and society's benefit. We hope you will be a credit to
yourself, your family, your school and your community.
Will you stop to see us occasionally and let us know how well
things are going?
Sincerely,
Marlin M. Schnurr.

The Wilmot Panthers closed the 1960 football season with a record of four wins,
four losses and a tie. Statistics show a .500 season but that doesn't tell the whole story.
The 1960 Panthers were regarded with respect by any opponent and not just another second
division ball club.
The Panthers played nine games instead of the usual eight. They added Clinton in
a non-conference tilt. They met them at their field and soundly trounced them, 33-0.
Wilmot also did something no other Panther ball club had ever done. They beat Antioch
for the first time in ten years. Ironically enough, this was to be the last time they played
them, and they sent Antioch home with a 25-6 defeat.
In the Southern lakes Conference they wound up with a 2-4-1 record which included
a tie with Delavan - Darien, which diabolically ruined their hopes for the conference
championship or at least a share of it.

Senior quarterback Greg Bush was not only named to the first string all conference
team and player of the year for this area by the Standard-Press, but also was named most
valuable player and received the Dinty Moore trophy. John Partenheimer, senior, was
named to the all conference second team and Jim Kenny and Jim Dunford received honorable mention.
Page 62

The 1960-61 Wilmot Panthers inspired their fans with something to cheer about
as they improved on their 6-8 conference record of the year before to 8-6. Wilmot wound
up in fourth place in the conference behind Badger/ Whitewater and Elkhorn in that order.
After losing the opener to Union Grove and to the Alumni in an overtime thriller,
they beat East Troy, 53-42. This victory in reality/ ruined Whitewater's chance of a tie
for the conference championship as they beat Badger in the last game of the season, but
still wound up in second place.
Senior guard Greg Bush was named to all conference first string team and won the
Most Valuable Player award. He also led conference scoring with 299 points. This
included a record breaking 41-point performance against Elkhorn in a 75- 62 defeat.
Senior center Glenn Rasch was named to the all conference second team and was fifth
in conference scoring.

(We were unable to secure a photo of the 1960 bam, but rather than slight Baseball, we have chosen to
use this year's team picture which is coached by Loren Miller.)

Under their new coach, Dale Schroeder, the 1960 Wilmot Panther baseball team improved their record of 5 wins and 7 losses of the previous year by posting a 7 and 4 over-all
record. The conference record of 4 wins and 2 losses was good enough for second place.
Brilliant pitching by Jim Schilz and Greg Bush carried the Panthers to a 3 and 1 record in the tournaments. The loss was a 3-2 defeat at the hands of Mayville, despite a two
hit pitching performance by Bush.
The 1960 Record:
Wilmot 6-Saint Joseph 12
Wilmot 3-Burlington 4
Wilmot 5-Whitewater 3
Wilmot 9-Elkhorn 0
Wilmot 9-East Troy 8

Tournaments:

Wilmot 1-Lake Geneva 0
Wilmot 4-Evansville 0

Mr. Olson's Golf team for 1961 shows great promise and it
is hoped that they will do well against the stiff competition they
must face.
Page 70

The 1960 Wilmot Panthers track team posted a record of one win, one loss,
second place in a triangular meet and seventh place in the conference meet.
Unfortunately, bad weather prevailed throughout the season resulting in inconsistent practice and an incomplete schedule which actually didn't give the team a
chance to prove itself against individual school competition.
The 1960 record:
Wilmot, 34; Delavan-Darien, 84
Wilmot, 37; Whitewater, 36; Mukwonago, 91
Wilmot, 63; East Troy, 55
Conference Meet:
Elkhorn, 71; Mukwonago, 43; Delavan-Darien, 36; Badger, 23;
East Troy, 22; Whitewater, 16; Wilmot 15

Here you see the fine coaching staff that Wilmot is so justly proud of. Coaches Helburg, Shelton, Schroeder, Miller, Olsen and Bucci are a credit to their profession and well-liked
by the student body.

until he meets Nina, the "deceased's" granddaughter, then they decide to stay. The boys
find out, however, that Mr. Quigley is not
dead, that somebody had attempted to murder him and failed, and that by pretending
to be dead he might disclose his murderer.
Mr. Quigley had a good plan and no

if it hadn't been for Wilbur and Here. They
set out to solve the case and matters soon go
from bad to worse, to terrible. The boys finally escape with their necks, but not before

they are visiting Here's Aunt Mary and Uncle

Bob is a mortician and his home adjoins the

especially when they find there's another

Junior Class Play
"GRANDMA'S BEST YEARS"

This is a story of a middle-aged woman who tries to make her family high
classed since her husband died and left her
a sizeable sum of money. The only problem
is that the rest of the family wants to live
like the average family. This is where Grandma Simms enters and decides to show her
daughter she is wrong. She starts planning
to ruin her daughter's big ideas about society.

The play goes on showing the trouble that
Gram gets into when she mistakenly welcomes a bandit and his family into the household.
Eventually everything turns out for the
better. The bandits are discovered, Mrs.
Abbott begins to see the light, allowing her
children to follow their true inclinations, and
Jim and Gram get handsome rewards.

Ken J andula, President; Diana Plunkett,
Vice-President; Linda Bruenning, Secretary-Treasurer; Janet Schmalfeldt, Student
Council; Mary Bj erning and Carol V enovic,

Band members also provided entertainment at the Christmas Party and the
Junior Class Play. A brass quintet played
selections at the class play, and a trumpet
quartet played at the Christmas Party.
This year the band received their badly needed uniforms which are the only ones
of their type. The style is found chiefly in
colleges. The uniforms can be changed
according to their need. For concert they
have a very formal look, and a dressy look
for marching.
The band participated in the district
festival on May 13, at Whitewater. They
also made a trip to Union Grove to play at
Southern Colony.

C/·as~s Prophecy
"Hello Operator?" "I'd like to call
Glenview 9-5678 please." "Hello, Elaine?"
This is Dorothy Rebicek.
"Do you know who that was that just
connected us?" It was Diane Schaetten.
She is now working as a telephone operator for the Bell Telephone Company.
Well, the real thing I called you about
Elaine was to discuss the reunion banquet
we had last night. I was sure surprised
that all those old classmates of ours showed up in such good shape. After ten years,
people sure do change. Some of them went
to their planned occupations, while others
strayed to something entirely different. I
never dreamed our reunion could be so
many laughs.
But! what could we expect with Jim
Morse being there, and since he has taken
over the Red Skelton Show he sure had a
lot more jokes to tell. Did you notice he
still carried his favorite saying with him.
The one that went "Ya, like I'm lying."
Mike Gallagher surprised us all when
he came into the room. After all, the job
as speaker of the House of Representatives
is really a hard one. I heard him say that
Dorothea Hoffman was his private secretary.
That crash landing we heard was Pat
Vincent. You know she operates the "Vincent Drive-Safe Airlines." She is flying instructor and takes students brave enough
to have her teach them. Her last two students were Steve Owen and Ben Yuknis.
Ben and Steve just made it back from
around the world. Not because it was their
desire to fly around but Pat forgot to show
them how to land.
Anyway, Pat brought Russ Larson in
safely from the Ringling Brothers Circus.
He had to leave early as his strong man act
was scheduled in a few hours.
Larry Dombrow now manufactures the
"Dum Dums" which have put the "Tum
Turns" out of business. Pat Vincent gives

a "Dum Dum" to anyone who gets nervous before going up with her.
Sue Eckert is happy working as a private secretary at Great Lakes. She told
me in her spare time she watches the N aval Training Building with high hopes.
Diana Plunkett took her summer job
seriously as she is now the swimming instructor at the YMCA in New York.
Brian Oman said that teaching philos-·
ophy at the University of Wisconsin reminded him of his Senior English Course. Brian
said he liked giving assignments rather
then receiving them.
Did you see Joe Rygiel ski d r i v e
up in a new 1971 Cadillac? But! what
could you expect when he is head of the
agency? Tom Kerkman and Henry Kucznyski are his top salesmen.
Judy Mazilausky now owns the cleaners in Twin Lakes. She is manufacturing
a n2w cleaner called "Mrs. Clean."
Carol Oetting and Sue Olson had a
little trouble finding someone to take over
their "0 and 0" dress shop in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Since no one was available to take it over for the day, Carol said
they left the sign up and just wrote in "Out
of Order." Sue told me that when they took
the cab from Chicago none other than Leo
Lasky was the driver. Leo said that his
two-year course in "Man and the Motor
Car" really paid off.
Jim Lubeno had just got back from a
Championship Bowling Game. Jim is trying for the bowling champion in the town
of Trevor.
Betty Marcussen said she was happily
married and enjoyed being a farmer's wife
just as much as she enjoyed being a farmer's daughter.
I saw that a lot of our classmates resorted to marriage.
Marlene Jerde's little boy knows quite
a lot about running a gas station already.
Joanne Krubaeck has high hopes for
her twin boys as Marines.

Page 107

Pat Weinberg's boy has a lot of power
for his size. That is what we could have
expected though, as all boys usually follow
in their father's footsteps.
Betty Rosentreter is the cheerleading
instructor at the DeKalb College. Somehow, Betty was attracted to the college
back in 1961. She has quite a tight schedule as the triplets Kim, Tim and Jim occupy
loads of her time.
James Busse and Agnus Yanko now
own an art institute in California. They
are helping high school art editors to put
out a colorful annual.
Linda Bruenning is having a little
trouble as owner .of Wenske's Store in
Camp Lake. It seems as if it's hard to keep
all those teen-agers away from there.
Kenny Jandula surprised us all when
he said he was the band instructor at Wilmot. The band now consists of two-hundred of Wilmot's one thousand students.
Greg Bush is now known as "What
Made Milwaukee Famous." He is the number one player out of both the National and
American Leagues. The Braves are glad
to have him as their pitcher.
I was anxious to see Rae Cornell in
person. I had seen her picture a lot in the
paper as she has been modeling for Patricia Stevens in Milwaukee. I heard her
say in her spare time she just happens to
get over to see some of the Braves home
games.
Carol Matthies and Ken Een are now
owners of the First National Bank in Silver
Lake. Kenny is the President and Carol is
his only private secretary. Carol remarked that she enjoys this job much more
than "posting."

college. Allen (Dudley) is professor of
English and John is coach of the leading
football team in the state.
The talk that Terry Avery gave on his
last missile launching in Cape Canaveral,
Florida, proved interesting to us all.
We also had an acrobat among us last
night. Carol Mullner is now trying for the
tumbling award in the Olympics.
Most of our food for the banquet was
donated by Jean Konrad who now owns
the Piggly Wiggly in Burlington.
Louie Grasseschi now owns his own
Italian Restaurant and specializes in "Grasseschi's Finest Pizza."
Donna and Ed Holmstrom finally
reached their wedding day. Donna is kept
busy with all the little Holstrom's while
Ed is busy as President of the corporation
"Holmstrom's Compact Cars."
Janet Faber had to fly in from Arizona
to be with us. She happened to mention
that she enjoyed teaching Advanced Math
in the Miller College.
Bernadine Jacobson was the airline
stewardess on the plane that brought Janet
from Arizona. Bernie told Janet that she
planned on getting married soon.
Jean Bloss opened her own mink coat
store in New York and Gladys Maruca is
her bookkeeper.
Jean Elwood must really have liked
being librarian at Wilmot as I heard her
tell Judy Ferund, her sister-in-law, that
she now runs the Chicago City Library.
Judy remarked that she was happy as the
wife of a TV repair man.

Vince Cullen arrived a little late because he had to sing the number one tune,
"Honeymoon on the Moon."

Jim Schultz has been starring in a
motion picture, "Women Make The World
Go 'Round." Jim isn't as shy as he used to
be.
Judy Rasch is now running the quarter mile in the Olympics. Her coach, Bill
Lois, said she is even faster than the Russian women.

Bill Smoak is now engineer on the
"Smoaky Zoo Lines." He brought Allan
Pelz and John Partenheimer over to the
banquet. He picked Allan and John up
in Madison where they are both attending

Susan Ramsdell and Janet Ziegler
have opened the "Ramsdell and Ziegler
Ladies High Fashion Shop." Lorelie Steffan
is their model and wears nothing but the
latest fashions designed by Frances Mattis.

Alfred Eggert, now living in India, is
content with his harem of girls.

Page 108

Some of those old school papers that
Rita Spiegelhoff and Susan Staudenmaier
brought along sure brought back loads of
memories. They were saying that the main
page in their "Wilmot Daily Tribune"
would feature our class reunion.
Ronnie May and Don Petritis just returned from Florida the night before
where they were co-starring in their latest
movie, "Where The Girls Are."
Jim Kenny finally made enough money to open his own butcher shop called the
"Cut-Up." Bonnie Horton said she enjoys
her job as check-out girl there very much.
Carol Kaddatz is kept busy answering
all the letters she receives from teen-agers
around. She has become famous with her
lonesome heart column.
Dennis Jeffers was telling us all about
his winning the high ski jump in the Olympics. He said Mr. Heigl, his instructor, was
now teaching him how to master the art
of skiing backwards.
Lois Jaegerman really surprised us all
when she showed us that clipping of her
last wrestling match in California. Lois is
now trying for Champion Woman Wrestler
in the United States.
Fay Richter was proudly announcing
that the Senior Girls Basketball Team she
has been coaching at Wilmot has again
taken the victory.
Sandy Meloun was saying that she was
getting nervous as she was going to be the
first woman sent into space next week.

Glenn Rasch is now managing a string
of Howard Johnson Restaurants. He said
he got his experience from making ice
cream cones at school.
Darlene Bauman is now the new owner of the drug store in Wilmot. Since Darlene spent most of her time down there, she
decided she might as well buy it.
Oh! By the way I heard Darlene
Schaetten and Thelma Ziolek say they enjoyed their job as beauticians in your
Beauty Shop.
Didn't Mr. Knight surprise you when
he said he was taking it easy as principal
of Kemper Hall girls school in California?
I guess I forgot to tell you that Rae
Cornell, Judy Rasch, Rita Spiegelhoff, Lois
J aegermann, Carol Matthies, Betty Rosentreter and myself still have our own girls
basketball team. We still think we can
beat any girls team around.
Well Elaine, I just can't believe that
our reunion came so slow but went so fast.
All our many memories were summed up
in just a few hours. No matter how fast
they all went by I'm sure none of us will
ever forget them.
I think someone wants the line. I have
to get back to making my lesson plans for
tomorrow anyway.
Now don't wait till our next reunion
to get in touch with me, as we always have
lots of old memories to talk about.
