N These people came out of the auditorium with smiles of enjoyment mixed with amusement at the antics of the players in "Seven Sisters" . 66 ellen Near capacity crowds from Alma and vicinity occupied seats in the high school auditorium on the nights of March 26 and 27. The cast of this Hungarian play starred Bob Boelio as Ilorkoy and Gretchen Toms as Nlitzieg Doratha Hicks, Donna Sherman, and Jan Rottschafer played her three elder sisters while Colleen Thompson, Mary Gillon and Barbara Moomey were the "y0ung chicks" of the family, .Sf if iafem Jshf! Mother Gyurkivies was ably portrayed by Sue Werbelow with Bob Hetzman, Kenny Smith, and Alan Cordill as male leads. Bob Woods as Janko and John Ludy as Toni Teleki completed the roll call of the cast. Mitzi, the devilish daughter of Mrs. Gyurkivics, must marry off her older sisters before she, herself, can be married to the young officer she loves. With the help of the officer, Ferenz Horkoy, she successfully "marries off" the sisters and the story ends with a traditional "woman gets her man" climax. The plot of "Seven Sister" revolves about the old Hungarian custom of marrying off daughters in the order of their ages. 303 Q hw On January I5 and I6 the Alma High School ACappella Choir presented their version of the musical oper- etta "Down in the Valley" by Kurt Weil. Starring in the production were: Maynard ' Faul as Brack Weaver, :T a goof? E' pf ii T ny Joyce Norris as Q' Jennie Parsons, Clarence Carlson as the leader, Dale Hanson as Jennie's pa, and Joe Glendenning as the preacher. To a background of music by the twin pianos, Jan Rottschaffer and Carol Blanck accompanying, the theme wove itself about these central figures. I 5 73 'i iff' as. gl N I 4 Pe Y to and I 3 ,ii . ,ug 'il The chorus, under the able direc- tion of choir leader Robert Pratt, sang such songs as the title tune, "Down in the Valley", "Little Black Train", and the spirited square dance theme. Both perfor- mances were well attended and requests were made by a few of those attending to do another operetta in 1954. .- 4 . 4 .1 -Q 4 rv A 9. .X "H V 'Ti' HK .at fig, C1- BE. 2-fl..

W- .hx Bill Pyle, who is without a doubt one of Alma High School's greatest athletes is rounding out his running career this year as far as high school is concerned. Bill has won state wide fame in both Cross-Country and Tmck. This year in Cross-Country, Bill set a new record on every course on which he competed, thus achieving the goal he set for himself at the beginning of the season. Last year, during track season, Bill attained the recognition of top class "B" miler in the State. This made him eligible to compete in the annual A. A. U. meet at Michigan Normal in Ypsilanti. It was at this time Bill reached the ultimate height in high school track. By winning the event, against all classes of the top high school milers, he proved himself to be without a doubt. the top high school miler in the State, Bill, we members of the Senior Class take our hats off to you. We wish you the best of luck not only in sports but in anything you strive for. You also are to be commended for the fine example of good sportsmanship which you have set during your high school career. We know that you will continue to do so in the future, for this always has been and always will be one of the outstanding traits of Alma High School athletics. 60 .xdfma arrierfi FIRST ROW: 'Ray Bovee, 'Sam King, 'Bill Pyle fCapt.j, 'Ir.

The Alma Harrier's started tneir '52 season with a meet, Friday September I9, on our own course, Winning easily over Howell by a score of I6 to 47. Saturday, October 4, was the first big meet of the year, the Hastings Invitational, where competition is always at its best, However, the Alma runners came through in fine shape, winning by a margin of some 73 points. On October 8th, we met Midland in a dual meet on our course, which was won in easy fashion. On Friday, October loth, we challenged a fast Mt. Pleasant team and added spirit to our 1952 Homecoming festivities by out-pointing 24 to their 33, Saturday, October 18th was the date of Alma's first invitational meet in Cross-Country. Entered were many of the strongest class B teams in the state, but Alma once again out-distanced her competitors by some 30 points to win our own first invitational. Going next to the Albion Invitational with the competition keener, our margin became larger. A very high spirited Alma team brought home the first-place trophy, winning this time by 59 I!2 points. Moving next into the final round and the climax of the 1952 Cross-Country season at Ypsilanti, the State Meet held a challenge for every man on the team, but each was equal to it, winning the biggest meet of the year by the biggest margin of the year, 77 points, The Harriers "B" squad also deserve some well-earned recognition for their fine record. They also won all of their '52 Cross-Country meets. In the last three years we have finished first in 25 of our 26 meets, placing second in Niles at the Albion Invitational In these last three seasons we have taken home ten first-place trophies and one second-place trophy out of the eleven trophies presented at the Invitational Meets. 61 I QP 'if I ski 04. wi- Yl, xx 3 'JK xi SE flu, ,r ,, i n qigfwj OM I I K if A 4345, I . , A M, ,, Z 5 gazfefga ff FIRST ROW: Jim Hagadorn, Bill Hurley, Bud Wilcox, Jr. Mailand QCapt.J, Sam King, Ray Bovee, John Harris.
