THE PILLARS We present to the students and alumniof Wayland Academy and Junior College the 1942 PILLARS. In it we have tried to portray the life and activity, the pleasures and struggles of the school year.

It is a design of your school days, but just a silhouette. We have painted in words, with black and white, leaving your memories to tint them with your own personal hues. Our task has been to give the outline; yours, with your favorite recollections, to color with shades of life.

Once a year we see the faculty in caps and gowns . Perhaps it is best that we see them so, at the end of the year, e lse we might be too overawed to treat them as the very human people they really are . For it is not in caps a nd gowns we will remember them, but in a variety of costumes. We will remember Coach in sweater and red cap turning out fighting teams. Mr. Bowers and Mrs. Wichman will be seen prowling among the books in the library. Miss R e ber will always be to us the very type of the director, complete with smock and script. While Miss MacDonald, Miss Chidest er, and Miss Beverley are r e membered keeping perfect order in class.

Of course, Mr. Sollitt a nd the Morsches will always be out in front, dominating Sunday services, wi1ile Mr. Ross and Mr. Wichman will have a similar place in mornil1g chapels (not to mention those little talks .in the President's and in the Dean ' s offices). Miss Bain seems to be everywhere, but mostly in the office listening to our excuses. li\'liss Goerlitz stands behind us every time we type , and Mrs. Ross when we gingerly touch the violin. In the laboratories, we will always see, dressed in work-stained smock or jacket Miss McClintock, Mr. Lindeke, and Mr. Randall; while Mr. Wilson stands ever ready to explain our relation to the world and society.

To complete the picture are the ghostly figures of Mr. Smith, 'Mr. LeGrand, and Miss Mitchell, in and out of Linfield on mysterious errands of finance and management.

We salute you, our Wayland Faculty, for your real, and we dare to think largely successful, efforts to make us better men and women, and better Christians.

\ Sophomores of Wayland Junior College The Sophomores of Wayland Junior College are few but potent. As far as the student body is concerned, they are the adults of the school, though t hi s is not necessarily true of their actions.

None of the sophomores was a stranger to the others. They had all known each other at least two college years, a nd many of them three years.

The class enjoyed the temporary plea sure of a Model T this spring. Their favorite pastimes were picnics and beach parties.

None of them will forget: Ted Moore--lovable, pugnacious "~T hitey , " whose tactless abruptness was a de light to all but the faculty. Jane Hoyer- sweet and generous " Jani e" who was always ready to help everyone. Dave Browne-our dry-witted " Bogy" with his unique breakfast slippers. Bob Fiebelkorn- love sick "Phoebe" with not an enemy in the world . Janis Johnson- whose diligence in her studies was admired by aiL · Roget· Seyfet•th- who had time for heart-throbs in betwee n brainstorms. John Kachelski-our "Ivory" whose brains and three point average made up for all the "dummies." Bob Harrimrut- the Atlas of Wayland. Malcolm McMillan- Jolly "11\fac" with his radical ideas. John Mat·thaler- "Duke," with the fascinating personality. Barbara Mru1;in- small, diminutive "Beansy," who was never without "Herby" somewhere in the vicinity. Howard Roedi- "Howie," our draftee, whose hearty laugh was always welcome. Alice Stanley- "Stanslous" of the brilliant personali.ty, who entertained everyone. Uryce Titus-generous "Babbitt," who could always be depended upon. Elizabeth Jennings-sweet, d elightful "Dimps," who was always willing to do her share and then some.

Robert Vetter- lovable "Herby" who was "Beansy's" shadow.

These are our college sophomores- we wish them th e b es t of luck.

L e ft to Hight- Audrey Kachel ~ k.i, Harold Brieman, Tom Jones, William Hoef~. Merrie Eber t, Raym ond Sabotke , Winogene Ha sse, Janet Bain , Anita Volkman, Jack Schhcherj J o hn Sea路 bo rn e, Shirle y Dunn , J ack Broaddu s, George K ontos, E d Owen, \路V illiam Le.pper, ack Hartz 路 heim , and (kneelin g ), J allles Nolan , and Robert Allen.

Freshmen of Wayland Junior College vVhen school opened in September. most of the freshmen found themselves strangers among strangers. But this state cf affairs didn't last long.

In a short time we became accu ~tomed to Wayland life and made many new friend3.

Several of the members of our class are not returning next year. .,w e sincerely wish they could be with us. But we realize that their plans h~ve been made. Wherever they are, we wish them success; and certainly no'\le of us will forget路 Jack Hartzheim-whose enthusiastic leadership was responsible for the success of our class. Bill JJepper-whose executive ability was exceeded by his capacity for ideas. Ed Owen- the patriotic gentleman who sacrificed his hair to the "V for Victory" campaign. Shirley Drum-the baby of the class, but only in size. Jack Broaddus--our talkative Chicagoan who could always comment except during a test. John .Seaborne-the harsh disciplinarian who can be credited with the "taming of the shrew." Anita Volkman- who somehow kept up there, work or no work. Janet Bain- who was always as busy as a bee, but still had time for "Sabotage." Winogene Hasse - who brought the gay laughter and bright hula dances of the islands into our midst. Ray Sabotke-":Sabotage," the chemist, who found his elixir of life with the formula, "J.B." Merrie Ebert-whose merry disposition was appreciated by students and faculty alike. Tom Jones-whose ever-present sense of humor brought delight to everyone. Bill Hoefs-whose quiet unobtrusive dignity in the classroom was a pleasure to the faculty. Outside the classroom- well! George Kontos--to whom study was a nightmare which he didn't always ride. Jack Schlicher-whose steadfast convictions could be swayed by neither man nor woman. Jimmy Nolan-whose peculiar temperament is well suited to a boxer. Robert Allen-whose friendly disposition and knowledge of movies commanded the respect of everyone. Harold Btieman-whose hearty laughter we heard so often, especially during noon hour deck games. Audrey Kachelski- whose high scholarship did not obscure her keen wit.

SEATED ON GROUND-路Marioa Kohn, Jack Mahler, Margaret Ruth.

OTHERS, Left to Right- Marge Reynolds, Jack Smelt s, Ruth Oxnam, Charles Aker, Dale Budlong, Em ily T opping, Naomi Wilson, George Newton, Ed Rothe, Terry Johnson.

Sophomores of Wayland Academy Brains and beauty are here gathered around Old Smokey. Terry Johnson, Ed Rothe, and Dale Budlong are, in . the order named, the three highest ranking students in the school. So much for the brains. The beauty has no official honor role, but it can't be for nothing that college boys haunted ou,r class. Then, each one of our class stands out for something:

\

Marion Kohn-"Chubby" to the flippant, but a swell gal to all.

Marge Reynolds-It was hard to get her to talk; but, then, it was hard to stop her.

Jack Smelts-all-around man, who seems to have been all around.

Ruth Oxnam-from Academy to College is her extracurricular success story.

Charles A'ker-who spent more hours "sol" in Warren Cottage than many a girl.

Emily Topping-bouncing Emmy with the high spirits of a balloon.

Naomi Wilson-shy, but what was that we said about brains and ?

George Newton-shy, sly, and spry, when need be.

Ed Rothe-the new star on the horizon.

Terry Johnson-a lion in the classroom and the athletic field; a little lamb some other times.

Jack Maltier-irrepressible Jacky, as explosive as the chemicals he loved to play with.

Margaret Huth-sweet and dependable, but she has red hair.

Freshmen of Wayland Academy CLASS OFFICERS President George Whitfield His parents always knew he'd be president some day.

Vice President Don McCreedy He's the kind that would remarry his first wife . .Secretary-Treasurer Barbara Oa.r twright "The Lone '.Volf."

MEMBERS Bill Hommel- He has the largest share in the class; he has been in it longest.

Blanche McDermott- Miss BeverleY loves her because of a certain uproar 路 in a certain English I class. 路 Barbara Bicknell- As a student, she'd make a good social-lifer.

Barbar~a Par路ker--:-Why didn't Bobbie Aker name his turtle after her?

Margaret Honegger- vVe all look up to her- literally.

Dorothy Hunt- As thin as the rock of Gibraltar, and just as bored. !<-,ranees Beisal- We wonder if all "Indianians" are like her! !<'ranees Smith- Her love for studying (?) is overwhelming.

Robert Aker--The little man who'll be in the freshman class a 1-o-n-g time.

Quinn ~lurphy-He says he's from Kentucky. O.K., we're all from China. We can take a joke.

Gloria Gordon- With her campaign, pigtails ought to become a national institution.

Nineteen Forty-two Commencement The events of Commencement officially began with the recital given Friday, 'M ay 29th, in Linfield Auditorium, featuring Alice Stanley in a lecture recital of Laurence Hou~man's "Victoria Regina." Mu sic students assisting on the program were Marian Kohn. Margaret Thomas, Mary Baltzer, Jea h Browne, and Mary Jung, pianists; Jane Hoyer, and Marion Nash, sopranos :, Saturday, "Siln-Up" was presented (see Drama Club). \ At 10:45 a. m. on Sunday morning, Rev. K. W. Sollitt of the First Bap- . tist Church delivered his commencement sermon to the Classes of 1942, using the theme, "Making Your Dreams Come True."

Alumni , friends and parents joined with the present-day students and faculty at the annual alumni dinner in Warren Hall at 12:30. In spite of the tire situation and miserable weather, there were but few places empty in the dining room. With Mr. Wichman as master-of-ceremonies , a short and snappy program proved of unusual interest to all.

Special attention was directed to the Class of 1882, represented by two of its three lh ring m e mbers, Mrs. Jennie Boorman Traver of Milwaukee, and Frank J . Walsh of Cedar Springs, Michigan. Mrs. Walsh, while not a m e mber of the class, was a student at Wayland during those years and was Mrs. Traver's roommate. Mr. and Mrs. \Valsh's son, David , 1910, was also present. Of the Class of 1892, Dr. E. P . Webb and Dr. LeGrand, both of Beaver Dam, were the representatives. The ladies of these groups were prese nted â&#x20AC;˘.vith corsages and the gentlemen with boutonnieres by members of the Class of 1942. From the Alumni Association, Mr. Walsh received a framed picture of Wayland Hall. It was to him, his roommate, that Elmer E. Ferris dedicated his book, "Jerry at the Academy," that delightful boy's story of earlier days at Wayland.

"Bouquets," too, were given to Mr. and Mrs. Stanley C. Ross, noting the twenty-fifth year of his association with Wayland; to Miss Laura MacDonald , noting the thirty-seventh year of her work with Wayland, and also her birthday ; to Miss Hazel Taylor, '15, on furlough from fifteen years of service In China, and to Mr. Otto Bauman, retired , after thirty-two years of service to Wayland.

The annual meeting of the Cum Laude :3ociet y convened at 2 o'clock Sunday in the English Room in Linrteld Hall, where the three newly el~cted members-in-course were formally admitted to th e Society, with the president of the local chapter, Mr. H. A. Bird, pre siding . Jean Browne and Manetta Focke, members of the· Class of 1942, and Barbara ·weiner, member of the Class of 1943 , were the members thus received. Because of new regulations set down by the National Organization, this was the first year that a member of the junior class was admitted to Cum Laude.

To review a bit the honor societies at Wayland, let us tell you that at the Tome School at Port Deposit, Maryland , was founded the Alpha Delta · Tau Fraternity, of nature similar to the Phi Beta Kappa for college, its purpose being the e ncouragement of high scholastic attainments in secondary schools. The Iota Chapter of this fraternity was founded at Wayland Academy in 1910. Later, the name of the organization was changed to the Cum Laude Society so as to avoid confusion in the Greek-letter fraternities.

Also, the order was opened to girls as well as to boys, and it has been Wayland's boast that the first girl to gain membership in Cum Laude was a Wayland girl.

• The Phi Society is the honor society for Junior Colleges. Wayland gained membership in this in 1939.

Membership into both societies depends upon scholastic ranking. The local chapters are at liberty to admit mto their membership not exceeding any number over one-fifth of the members of one class and only those who rank in the highest fifth.

So much for the organizations. Now to tell you about the Honor Party sponsored by the societies under the direction of Miss 'M itchell, secretary of Cum Laude. Announcement of the awards of the new members to Cum Laude and the Phi Society was made at the party on May 13th. The students who had been on the H•Jnor Roll at any time during the year were also guests. The company met in Warren Hall dining room around attractively decorated tables arranged in the form of a huge "W." Here Mr. Bird announced the awards to Cum Laude, while Miss Chidester gave the Phi awards · to Audrey Kachelski and Roger Seyferth. Later, the entire party went to the Odeon where they enjoyed a movie.

At 2:30 Sunday in Linfield Auditorium was held the Annual Meeting of the Wayland Alumni Association at this time the members of the Classes of 1942 were formally accepted into the fellowship of that organization.

Following this meeting, the long-looked-forward-to game of softball between the alumni and the present student group was held on Brown Field , with the alumni coming out the victors.

At 7:45 p. m. in Linfield Auditorium occurred the Baccalaureate Service following this order: Prelude-''Variations Serieuses'' ------ ·- ·------------------------------ -- -----·---Mendelssohn Chester Morsch Processional- "Rejoice Ye Pure in Heart" --------------------------------------------Messiter Invocation Anthem- "One Hundred and Fiftieth Psalm"-----------------·-----------------------Franck Wayland Choir Scripture ....................................................................................

Bowden The almost constant rain of several weeks did not abate for graduation day, Monday, June 1, so the exercises had to be held in Linfield Auditorium rather than on the campus. A goodly number of undergraduates, friends, and parents assembled to do honor to the graduates and to enjoy the following program:

SOF'I'BALL

Due to the abbreviated spring term, track was abandoned and softball substituted in its place. The turnout for the t ea m was not as large as expected, and as a result , it was compo sed of young, inexperienced players, none of whom had won a letter in previous athletic experience. The group, however, was very enthusiastic and met their practice sessions and games seriously.

A total of five games was played ; inclement weather and transportation difficulties w ere encountered in drawing up the schedule. Horicon high school was defeated in a loosely played game on their field, 16 to 6. In the return game on the Wayland campus, Horicon won from Wayland in 'an exciting encounter, 8 to 5. This necessitated another game in order to break the tie, ~o Wayland traveled to Horicon and won a free-hitting affair', 17 to 14. A strong M.U.S. team gave Wayland a bad licking, 35 to 8, on a wet field, when everything went wrong, and nothing went according to past performances. The final game was played against an unusually strong Alumni team during commencement week-end, and ended in a victory for the Alumni, 16 to 9.

The season was enjoyable and profitable, and gave actual athletic experience to a number of boys who have played six-man football and B squad basketball wi.thout having won a letter.

" THE FRIENDSHIP CIRCLE"

Y. W. C. A.

\

The YWCA is on the job the year around. Through the summer months the officers corre~pond with the new girls as they enroll in the Wayland membership, extending to them a friendly welcome and helping them to become acquainted with the school. The Cabinet at its Houseparty, held the week-end before the opening of school, spends hours planning the program for the year.

The Y -girls' welcome to the newcomers at the door of Warren Hall , flowers, cards of greetings in the room and clever invitations to the firstnight pajama party make for a spirit of friendliness right from the start.

Then who will ever forget the all-girls' picnic held at the Ehne estate; the "Mixer" on the first Saturday night; or the dinner-dance in January with its hilarious floor show?

"Tag Day," just before Thanksgiving, brings a more serious aspect to our work, when we go out for a 100% tagged school, thus giving all on our campus a chance to contribute toward baskets which the girls make up and distribute to needy families in the community.

The first of the Wednesday weekly meetings of the "Y" is the October Fellowship Dinner, held in our clubroom in Roundy Hall, when we are acquainted with the purpose and the program of the organization. This year our theme was "Values." The speakers talked around the idea of "'iVeighing Values." Book reviews, travelogues, music hours, inspirational messages, some brought to us by the students, some by faculty members, and some by guest speakers, gave us, in our meetings this year, much of good to think about.

The "Y" has given many things that make for the best of memories, but without a doubt the things that will be the longest cherished are the ceremonials, beginning in the Fall with the Recognition Service, when the new members are formally inducted into membership- white candles and roses, and a service of fine meaning make this a never-to-be-forgotten experience.

The lovely, impressive Christmas pageant; the Installation .Service for the newly elected officers in the Spring; and then the closing meeting of the year, the Friendship Circle held in the orchard when by candlelight and firelight the senior girls bring us their farewells.

The officers for the year just closed, and the ones elected for the coming year are: 1941-42 1942-43 President ... ................. ... ........... ............

The Wayland Choir The Wayland Choir started completely anew this year with a new director and many new voices. tMr. 0. W. Dey, our director for the last three years, retired this year, and the music department was tak en over by Mr. and Mrs. Chester Morsch. Mrs. Morsch has introduced a great number of songs and anthems, new to most of us. Mr. Morsch accompanied the choir at r ehearsals, and a t the church services of the Baptist Church here in Beaver Dam. But th e Wayland Choir wa s a ctive in many other se rvices and eve nts.

They took trips to such places a s Milwaukee, Waukesha, Watertown, and Fox Lake, whe re they gave various programs of music.

From the choir a sextet was formed which also gave .s ome out of town programs. This sextet was composed of Janet Bain, Marion Nash, Jean Boyd, Jean Browne, Dave Browne, and Jo e Lambert. Bob Harriman took the tenor part during Dave's absence. This sextet was dissolved at the end of the first semester.

The choir supplied music for the Baccalaureate Service this year. They sa ng three beautiful anthems.

At the end of the year there were twenty-two members of the choir.

They were : sopranos, Dorothy Hunt, Janet Bain, Barbara Bicknell, Barbara Weiner, Mary Baltzer, Jane Hoyer, Dorothy Jones, and Marion Nash; altos, Naomi Wilson, Emily Topping, Lois Merriam, 路 Jean Boyd , lMarian Kohn , Maurine Focke, Margaret Nast, Merrie Ebert, and Jean Browne; tenors, Dave Browne and Robert Harriman; basses, Tom Jones, Curtis Wilcox, and Ed Owen.

\ "SUN-UP"

The Wayland Players The Wayland Players is an organization of students who are interested in the production and presentation of dramatic entertainment. The officers from 1941-42 were Robert Harriman, president; Alice Stanley, vice president; and Manetta Focke, secretary-treasurer.

Under the able direction of Miss Ruth Elizabeth Reber, the '\Vayland Players hav e produced two more successful plays this year. When production springs from the interest and diligence of a group like this, successful plays really are not surprises.

THE TAMING OF THE SHREW The curtain rose on January 16 for the first play to be given by The Players this year. The play they chose was a completely modern Shakespearean play, which featured dance music, coca-colas, and modern dress, all of which added up to the fun-frolicing "Taming of the Shrew." The play was well cast with Alice Stanley as Katherine and John Seaborne as Petruchio carrying the leads, aided by a good supporting cast, ably assisted by a hard hitting stage crew, under the direction of Miss Ruth Reber.

From dance music to old corn-cob pipes, from modern dress to patched trousers, and from coca-cola to XXX came Lula Vollmer's "Sun-Up." The versatility of The Players was certainly shown in the marked difference between the two plays which they presented during this year.

"Sun-Up" was a camouflaged theme of patriotism which was excellently presented on May 30, as a part of our Commencement week-end. The following was the cast:

Longfellow Society The "old Longs" returned to the campus in the fall anxious to make 1941-42 a bright spot in the history of the Longfellow Society. The opening programs and the initiation activities were of special interest during the beginning of the school year.

Twenty-two new Longs were initiated, increasing the active membership one hundred per cent. The concluding initiation event took place on Satur- 路 day evening, November 15, the formal ritual having been the week before.

As a starter for the evening, fruit cocktails were served in the lounge of Wayland Hall before the group went to the Odeon where they enjoyed a movie. Following the theater party, the traditional "steak banquet" took place in the main dining room of the Hotel Ro gers, where the tables were beautifully decorated with roses, favors, and candles. The cordial hospitality of the "old Longs" was extended to over sixty new members, former members, and friends who were present for the event.

Throughout the year programs of a wide variety of interest were presented giving all of the members opportunities to use 路their talents. The year closed with the annual picnic at Crystal Lake Beach, where swimming, baseball, and other games were enjoyed by all before everyone gathered aro und the outdoor fireplace for eats. Afterwards an i-nformal program, honoring the senior members of the Socie ty, and including the Class Prophecy, the Class History, and the Class Will, brought to a close the year's work . The Longfellow spirit of good fellowship and worthwhile accomplishment went with the group as it parted.

Club "Henri" It was a little over two years ago when Wayland's need for an informal, coeducational gathering place on campus first struck the students vigorously. The time was immediately after the annual rodeo sponsored by the Way-Y club. The students had such a good time at the party that it struck them that they needed a central meeting place which might contain the proper facilities for food, both cooked and frozen, for music, hot and classical, and for fussing . . . well!!

Various places suggested themselves to the three or four members of the faculty who were interested. From many points of view, Linfield Hal! would have been an excellent place in which to open our clubroom, but if

- - -·-----·

it were in Linfield there just couldn't be any noise and without a certain amount of noise there would be no fun. Finally one of the faculty thought of the old chicken coop, which was a long building east of the barn. It was decided it would b'e exactly the place for the proposed clubroom.

At that time there weren't any more chickens, but the old roost was still there. Feathers were rather thickly encrusted on the floor; flies had buzzed over the windows for uncounted hours until the light would hardly pass through, spiders had made their silvery nets in every nook, cranny, or corner, so that all in all the chicken house was not the most desirable place a t first sight.

\

The idea was seen to have something in it nevertheless. Then the cost was discussed, but the more it was discussed the larger it grew. Nothing could be produced for th"a t chicken house for less than five or six hundred dollars; and we didn't have the five or six hundred dollars.• This matter \~as presented to the students, however, in little groups here and there and they were quite enthusiastic about the possibility, but no one could suggest whEre the money might come from. So, as a beginning of the project, it was suggested that on the year following, there should be a ten dollar entertainment fee assessed against each student. That began in the fall of 1940 . Of course, a great deal of the income was devoted to actual musical entertainment and lectures, but at the end of the year there was a nest egg of about two hundred dollars left so that with the opening of the school year, 1941, the possibility of the club house was much rosier than it had been.

The Student .Senate was filled with enthusiasm and they believed that they could raise the five hundred dollars needed in addition to the two hund red on hand. They did raise the mon ey by selling tickets to the entertainment series, already paid for out of the student fund of 1941-42.

Club Henri has an excellently equipped kitchen, furnished in knotty pine, with an asbestos tile floor. These were the first things which caught the eye of the students when the doors of Club Henri were opened Homeco ming Eve. As the scent of sizzling hamburgers ruse from the grill, the shrill voice of our beloved President put the first hamburger to auction. Excitement was accelerated as the bids rose from ten cents to two dollars. A group of "bidders" was quickly organized, under the ingenuity of Jack Broaddus .

After pooling their coins, the group had " just enough to swing the sale their way by a bid of two dollars and sixteen cents.

A st ud e nt committee composed of selected members from the Student Se nate, who were in charge of affairs <lealing with the construction of Club H e nri, dese rves recognition for their efforts in carrying the project to a conclu sio n. Special words of prai':le go to Jack Hartzheim, chairman of this s pecial committee and president of the Freshman Class of the Junior College, for his leade r ship in direc ting the student participation in the construction of the Club , as we ll as supervising the purchase of equipment and supplies.

Yo u a nd your committee have done a commendable piece of work, Jack!

The ·w ayla nd Student Senate can congra tulate itself upon a constructive piece of worlc Not only is the club a m eeting place for the student body, but because so many of the st udents have contributed work such as clean-

(~

ing, sandpapering; polishing, painting the outside, and counter service, there has been the finest morale in the student body that has been seen for many years.

19- Everyone scattered to their homes for a nice long two weeks' rest (?).

JANUARY 5-School opened again except for a few kids who missed their trains because of the snow and various other reasons.

14- Basketball closed the official season with the Alumni playing the varsity. The Alumni won, of course, with their most talented player, Ray Patterson, in top form. The first game was between the boys of the Academy dorm. Words fail to describe it.

21-Went home for another long week-end. Our new boxing team made its first showing at Libertyville. We showed a good spirit and made a fine showing. Jimmy Nolan proved to be a very capable coach.

27- Another offering of the Artists' Series was Esther Doby, a colored (and was it coloratura?) soprano.

28-The Paul Bunyan party will not be soon forgotten. Bobbie Aker and Henry Alldred ge sure do a beautiful "hula." That box social was certainly a success, and luckily so, because the proceeds went tpward a fund for the Wayland boys that go into the services. Paul Bunyan proved to be none other than John Seaborne.

11- 0ur boxing team met the Libertyville Boys' Club team in a match at Libertyville.

At this time also , Dr. van Walt, a Dutch psychologist, was visiting Wayland. This was the beginning of the many astral bodies around the campus.

Van Walt's lecture on the twenty-third was most exciting. We all saw a lot of him , but we all agree that it wasn't enough. It was on this weekend that Jacie Blackmond was heard to say, "School interferes so much with my daily life."

25- Wayland's golf and tennis teams met M.U.S. at Milwaukee.

In both events M.U.S. beat us. In golf the scores were, M.U .S., 11, Wayla nd, 1, and in tennis, M.U.S. 5, Wayland 2.

At night the seniors held a dance that was a great success.

Johnny Adams and his band provided the music.
