When the golfers gather at the nineteenth for a hole-by-hole post rnortem of a day on the green, they often get around to discussing the history and ori- gin of the game, the district competitions that the War terminated, and related subjects, but an observant listener will have no trouble discerning that these green-pacers keep the conversation on golf as Well as they keep their eyes on the ball.

The members throw the spotlight on directing, costume designing, stage managing, and experimentation with make-up as well as on acting. The curtain is set to go up bi-weekly ior the rest oi the year on plays produced by the members oi this organization.

I . PRINCIPAL H. S. FATHERREE, B. A. These are unequal days. To some the flare of guns by night makes time one endless day. To those of us at home the sands of time flow more swiftly in a constant stream of peaceful living. Under the unequal burdens of our day let us not forget our debt of gratitude to the boys and girls Who are paying the enormous price for our peace. Upon the foundation given us, let us build individual lives and a society that will be clean and powerful for right. May it never be said that our soldiers died in vain or that we lived less than worthy of their heroic deeds. Yours sincerely, H. S.

Specializing in service to others, these enterprising young Women sponsored the lunior Bed Cross drive this year and persuaded Abilene High School students to subscribe nearly one hundred per cent. The girls made Christmas tree deco- rations, bed jackets, robes, scutts Cthe girls Will tell you that these are merely simplified house - slippersi, pajamas, checkerboards, bags for checkermen, and other little luxuries for the sick and Wounded G.l.'s hospitalized at Camp Barkeley. With the self-sacrificing motto, We Serve, these students have as their purpose service in any capacity in War or peace.

Although this is the sign-on year ot the A.H.S. ot the Air, it is a signal one and no fade-out is expected in the years to follow. The purpose oi the club is to study radio tech- niques, as distinguished from those of stage, and moving picture, or-as the sponsor facetiously remarks-Clark Gable techniques. 7, Ui r.,,, First Bow: Weldon Newton, Cliff Lester, loan Bamsey, Charles Tandy, Dorothy lohnson, Henry Bass J, - l' V Second Row: Larry Teague, Harold Boehning, Raymond Roberts, Hubert Seale, Andrew Urban, Charles Mohr, Phyllis Bamsey, Iayne Bose Bishop Third Bow: Miss Odell lohnson, Doyle Bay Cfurley, Tom Ed Travis, lda Beth Tiner, Mary Beth Ferguson, Crawford Barrier, Clinton Sojourner, Mary Beth Norman LIFE UNDER THE MICROSCOPE Getting a bug's eye view of the world is the aim of these embryo microbe hunters. Life Under the Microscope is composed of some students who have had science and some who never got their fill of looking through the micro- scope, a fascinating piece of mechanism. Miss lohnson strives to suggest tactfully to the young Agassizes that th ey might look for something instead of just look-and thus acquire a scientific attitude and a semblance of tech- nigue in handling an instrument without which modern medicine would have been impossible.

The majority ot them were students who had never had the opportunity or the time to take art, but who were interested in learning to draw something more attractive than a straight line. These students have been learning not to tear the blank canvas and are now ready to begin work in earnest on still lite, and hope to be able to do portraits soon. V. MRS. EDITH C. SMITH, B. A., STUDENT COUNSELOR To the Pupils ot Abilene High School: My Wish for you during World War II is that you may live your lite, not only in school but also away from your studies, in such a manner that you will have no regrets. lf We keep faith with those Who have given their lives, With those who are prisoners even now in enemy lands, with those who are still fighting that all the peoples of the earth may have peace and freedom, We must never for one moment be blind and self-centered. We must keep our eyes and minds and hearts open to the actual facts of present and past history and to their implica- tions for the future. With these facts and implications in mind, We must think clearly and act with courage and devotion, never allowing ourselves to be sidetracked by trivialities. May you, at the end of World War II, be able to see yourself as a Work- man that needeth not to be ashamed. Sincerely, EDITH C. SMITH.

Although this suggestion was voted down by the organization, it reflects the shutter-quick wit and the can- did view generally attributed to photographers.

ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL IOE C. HUMPHREY, B. A., M. A. To the Student Body of Abilene High School: No experience in my life has meant more to me than my associations with Abilene High School. The Eagles of l945, along With all the Eagles of past days, are among my greatest memories. The longer I live, the more I realize that friendship is one of the greatest treasures of life. Long after you have forgotten many of the lessons you learned in school, you Will recall your High School friends. Someone has said, The friends thou hast, and their adoption tried, grapple them to thy soul With hoops of steel . . Along With friendship I trust you remember your days in Abilene High School for the good habits you acquired, the knowledge that was implanted, and the philosophy of living you were taught. If you are able to graduate with a better appreciation of life, a clearer understanding to your life's responsibilities, I feel that the years you have spent in Abilene High School will be remembered as among the dearest and best of your life's journey.

Terry, Rainey Owen, Leroy White, Lynn Perkins, Doris lean Plowman, lean Oates, Genelle Woodrum C A CAPPELLA An idea ot what these members of the A Cappella undergo to belong to the organization may be acquired by one sight-reading of the circular letter sent to the parents ot those who are competing tor membership, which strikes a minor key in the opening chord by noting that the members must submit to rigid training and frank criticism. No, the assiduous, vivacious little director attempts to put no pianissimo on the responsibilities and the duties ot an A Cappella member. The main theme of the group is a sequential pattern ot morale-building, both tor civilians and Cf. l.'s, and while they are building the morale ot others, they are building into themselves an appreciation for the eternal beauty ot song.

Requiring more of its members than good voices, a club as large as this demands presto response to direction and abides no retardo of the tempo of the group to suit the abilities of any member. Often sounding the tone of the school, as they do in the Commencement programs and at Parent Teacher Association meetings, the members of this organiza- tion must harmonize as well in their personalities as in their voices. tl t t u ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL DON B. WEATI-IEBBY, B. A., M. A. To the Students of Abilene High School: From news reports on all the fighting fronts of the great conflict in which We are now engaged, evidences point toward an end that is perhaps not too far in the future. Prevailing conditions make us feel quite hopeful of the out- come. Then may we all look forward cheerfully, but with a sense of duty foremost in our minds. We should realize the gravity of the situation and tho responsibility that will be thrust upon us, and more especially that which i3 upon the shoulders of our youth. Thus, more than ever, we need to be prepared: to be on guard against pitfalls, brought about by evils of war which must inevitably follow. With hope we are obliged to look to the future. Surely, progressiveness will continue, and We must be alert to keep pace with it. Then build and rebuild in the ways and plans of the engineer, the states- man, the educator, and the moralist. With character, religious influence, and a worthy code of morals build a stronger democracy that reaches far and Wide in its influence and practices in order that more people of the world may enjoy its privileges and ways of peaceful living.

THANKSGIVING PRGGRAM The Thanksgiving Program given in the traditional manner oi Abilene High School was presented November 20, l944.

Many of them choose to go on to college in order to be better prepared for the future. The majority of those at Abilene high school select Hardin-Simmons University because they know it is a good university, it will permit them to become equipped to face the life of busi- ness or in the home more efficiently, and because it is near at hand. Abilene high school graduates also Want to go Where most of their friends go. And that is to the Forty Acres of H-SU. That's why Hardin-Simmons officials invite you all to enroll this summer or in the fall. Even boys who will go into service soon have found they may advance more quickly if they have some college Work. You'll find Dr. R. N. Richardson, president, Whose picture is above, a friendly individ- ual, ready to help you. The same goes for each member of the fine faculty.
