Excerpts from that every- day life are engraved indelibly here. MENTAL, SOCIAL, PHYSICAL . . . each phase of student life is essential to a complete education — a basis for the sharing of common interests with our friends. Friendships — the richest treasure of LIFE itself started, broadened, and perpetuated here in college. Our single aim — to hold a mirror to El Dorado Juco life for the 1940-41 year so that the fun and frolic, woes and work be made permanent for you. Our single hope — that in years to come you may glance often into this book to recall these memories. May these memories be pleasant for you.

That ' s an American tradition. Our college is not un-American. But let ' s consider the picture above. Judging from the pleasant ex- pressions, it obviously was either posed or taken just after a Juco victory. One would never realize, unless he were told, that this office is the nerve center of all Juco. Here originate those glorifying documents-the Honor Roll and the Flunk List. Across the office counter to the secretary, Miss Leora Welch, are passed innumerable little white lies in answer to that age old guestion, ' Why were you absent? The answer usually is either I had to work, or I was sick. Both usually get the desired results — but with wear and tear on the conscience. 8 THE GENERALS These are the men who marshal] our college through the year. You ' ll find Commander-in-chief Hughes in the office halfway down the west hall. He has the problems of a half a dozen schools; no wonder he ' s so serious. It is almost luck if you find Juco ' s Generalissimo Walker in his hide- out and not busy. But you will meet him and his smile guite often in the halls. The Dean is a great help to worried collegians. Almost everyone drops into ' The Dean ' s Den at some time even if it ' s for a little pep talk on excessive tardies. We think we have the best commanders in the army. THE FOUR QUIZZITEERS Gathered under Mr. Corn well ' s map of the United States, The BRAINS discuss Griz Lee, that all-round Jucoite. Cornwell is that harassed person who dashes around town hunting transportation for athletes. Guiding the triumphs and toils of the YW are Miss Milford and Miss Wrestler. Mr. Crooks has that most desired of exalted positions: censor of the weekly Grizzly Growls. Such are the personalities who opine on Griz Lee. Wrestler: Now I think Mr. Lee is a fine student. He never causes me any trouble nor argues that I ' m getting tangents in the sguare roots. Trig and Analytics bother him a bit, but he ' s getting them conguered. 10 Cornwell: Griz Lee? Ha, ha. He ' s the fellow who spent two days trying to prove that Cortez invaded Latin American History from the north. And you never found a student more eager to teach Economics in my absence. Milford: Hmmm — let ' s see, a 9-weeks grade for Griz Lee. He considers the most peculiar things as literature: How to Relieve Pain at Chinese Throat-Cuttings ; and those Friday themes for Rhetoric. How he can shred infinitives!. Crooks: Oh, yes, Lee. He has a grand personality from a psychological standpoint. It ' s no wonder when you know his ethical philosophy of life. He reminds me of my grandmother- 11 PROPHETEERING Faculty meeting is over, but these four seem reluctant to leave. Psst! they ' re scared of the dark. So they put off venturing forth by reorganizing the school system. Miss Bender feels she has proved her case: Shorthand is shorter than longhand. Mr. Leet hasn ' t said much but he ' s thinking — that they ought to come down to his shop and see the metal pretzels he and his boys have made. But during the winter he left both students and pretzels to his successor, Mr. Schraeder. The speaker of the moment seems to be Mr. Bayne. Can ' t you hear him telling the latest helpful hints of his geologists — parachuting off the rim of Grand Canyon and climbing down inside volcanoes to see what ' s there. Mr. Nixon speaks up, Students are so helpful, aren ' t they? Last 12 ) fall two or three of the fellows did their best to save using recorded barn- yard sounds for OUR Town ; but sometimes they neighed off-key. And I learn more about Rhetoric every year, especially around test week. I learned something too: It is not good practice to fly during thunderstorms. One of the CPT flyers found that out for me besides giving the whole out- fit jitters before we got him down. (But Mr. Bayne, you aren ' t absolutely perfect. For what reason do your fledgling pilots call you Undershoot and Fence- jumper Bayne?) Now Mr. Morgan, (see snapshot page) who became Professor of Ground School, Geology, and Geography second semester, has a way of outsmart- ing his students: he ' s just learning to fly right along with them. 13 JUCO ' S WALL STREET We might call this the Wall Street of Juco. Let us introduce to you the brokers. Mr. Shumway, that sociological scientist, who between classes of Business Organization and Finance, Sociology, and Modern Europe, looks after the YM boys, wrinkles his brow ever the athletic fund. He may be the shortest professor in faculty meeting but he certainly is not short on thinking brain cells. Our guiet little French-speaking Mam ' selle Beuchat is seeing red and black spots- -figures- -before the eyes. Keeping the college financially stable, who wouldn ' t? But to one who has sponsored a girl ' s pep club and who has watched Mexican bullfights what is a bit of red? The high school book-balancer, Miss Hanson, seems to have a more 14 satisfying ledger. Or then it might just be a smile of relief at getting away from the roar of adding machines and typewriters, the pen-scratching and groans of amateur accountants. Just what sort of financiers are those wizards of the laboratory? Mr. Dick of the Physics department has exactly seven pockets full of formulas for solving the coefficient of expansion (of a deficit); and Mr. S. H. C. is just dying to try out the Coffman Process, a newly discovered guantity which he is absolutely sure will (dis) solve anything. But then the three Certified Juco Accountants never seem to have need of such assistance. 15 K BiAScm. C Bohawrurn sQUimx .am. H F Coivru ilt CoujUs U Cnjawj J Cummlm Hamx N J Cunrui E Douiuiscm.

H . y©wru| SOPHOMORE CLASS, 1941 19 Mr- . m m THE BOOK NOOK Teach a man to read and he can educate himself. Yessir, that ' s what someone said once. It sounds logical, too. For those Juco students who know how to read, a library is provided. To keep the library and students in order, a librarian is provided. That ' s Miss Houck. And keeping order is one of her specialties; another is dig- ging out the most inaccessible book for freshman research papers. You don ' t always see such a tranquil scene as is pictured above, how- ever. Usually there is much chattering and giggling, and now and then — but not for long — even a bit of snoring. But never fear, at regular intervals all noise, regardless of origin, is firmly hushed and shushed by the book nook chief cook. My, but thats poetic — and unintelligible. 20 m lillSfll ililBlsi ■nil ■H WmmWm l«- « ::|sii s iiHliiliPiilii iiiiililil OUTWITTING THE CENSORS The Grizzly Growls, weekly publication of the El Dorado Junior College, is the voice of the student body. Its functions are to cover all school events, to report current choice bits, and to expose any subversive activities. The paper is especially noted for its colorful interviews of the faculty and for news regarding ex-Jucoites in the Army, Navy and Marine Corps. The year proceeded smoothly and without mishap for the Grizzly Growls with the exception of the afternoon when Editor King, with flowers in his hair, entertained the feminine members of the staff with his charming falsetto and caused the Growls to be late going to press. Irene Strotkamp was appointed editor for the first semester and Joe King was chosen for the second. Mr. G. Haldane Crooks acted as faculty advisor. 21 mfigajB THE SECOND LIMA CONNERENCE That organization which improves the condition of the world is the International Relations Club. That tiny group gave Latin America a better deal every Thursday noon, and interpreting the Good Neighbor Policy was a specialty. Maybe we ' re a small group but we solve enormous problems. Does any government want to hire us to bring peace and prosperity? What, no offers? The club horse-and-buggied (not really. That ' s just the boys ' opinion of Sponsor Cornwell ' s Plymouth) to Missouri to the Mississippi Valley Con- ference. Between banguets and luncheons the ten delegates attended a few round tables, discovering that they weren ' t the only reformers. Anyway it was the finale of a successful year for Juco ' s smallest club. 22 ■ .... j . m. ■ .... i§§: ' HBnran ■ 1 lllii ■.! ?♦ j  - Itlll- iff NOTHING AMATEUR BUT THE CAST Camera, lights, action! No, we ' re not in a big movie studio but merely in the Junior College Auditorium watching the Junior College in another of its fine dramatic presentations. There was no camera (except the one the photographer used when he took a picture of the cast after the production) but there were lights, and the play was brimful with action. Yes, folks, Our Town was indeed true to life (even if they didn ' t have any stage settings) and proved to be a true warmer upper for the cold winter weather. Time elapses and then comes the spring. Warmer weather brings with it Henry Aldrich who has one awful time getting through school. 23 CHOCLIT SODAS (Don ' t we all?) It just seems that everyone picks on Henry; and then when you have enemies who make it look as if you stole some old band instru- ments - - how is a fellow going to concentrate on going to Princeton next year? Golly, ' What a Life. Most of us have about the same troubles but it is much mere funny to see poor Henry suffer and be brought to life by the Juco Players under the direction of L. W. Nixon. Forest Corn well sat at the helm of Pi Delta Theta and Delta Psi Omega while Evelyn Phillips and Mamie Sifford helped Pap as Vice-President and Secretary-Treasurer respectively of Pi Delta Theta. 24 THE EYES HAVE IT Debate tournament _is one excuse you can put on your absence slip and get the Dean to sign it. But that wasn ' t the reason this thoughtful-looking assembly took up the art of argumentation. There ' s satisfaction in repre- senting your school all over the state. From the Speech Institute through seven tournaments these debaters carried their banner high. One team managed a first place; the others weren ' t too far behind. Although among minor catastrophes little Gilkeson neatly changed the crease in Ramsey ' s trousers from vertical to horizontal and although Coach Nixon never saved enough on Christmas ties to intall a heater in the Debatebus, the Forensics gang finished the most sussessful season in years. 25 LITTLE THEATER The Dramatic Production class is Juco ' s Little Theater . Miniature stages are made by the students themselves and are used to demonstrate balance and proper arrangement. Lighting and positions of figures on the platform are studied. The correct and most effective way of applying cosmetics (stage paint) is discussed, — must interest the boys very much and should improve the girls ' techniguel We finally have learned what color sky-blue-pink is because that is the exact shade President Pete ' s face turned when Mr. Nixon used him as a cosmetician ' s model. However, neither he nor we can afford to be sgueamish since the end justifies the means. 25 A PARADOX! A PARADOX! A paradox! A paradox! Yes, a most unusual paradox that the dougthy pirate king of the Pirates of Penzance should be taken to the hospital the day after the performance of the light opera. Miss McGee ' s mixed chorus furnished both stars and splendid group singers for this great undertaking. In this picture the boys octet is dilligently practicing Ah-h-h during one of those zero hour sessions. Band regalement was another musical highlight of the season. This year ' s Juco band (see p. 55), one of the four bands participating, shows improvement says Mr. Wallingford. Perhaps its the high school recruits. It is no paradox that both Regalement and Pirates shall long be remembered. 27 J Boks W Baaibm- kaimjbyxs FRESHMAN CLASS, 1941 28 F Fouls E Fou Ua_ ft FoujIuv W Foiulxa.

G Won ulL FRESHMAN CLASS, 1941 33 DESIGNING WOMEN If you ' ve seen an especially attractive dress or coat on some Ju-coed, don ' t be surprised if it ' s all her idea. The clothing class has special work in principals of balance, harmony, and proportion so that they may express themselves. Problems always arise. Perhaps Virginia took measurements from seam to seam and back again. Ten to one the two measurements added is inches from the total as measured! Miss Shelden is there to straighten out such mathematical phenomena, and she also takes the precaution of having all patterns tried on muslin first before using good material. With instructions on shopping and characteristics of fabrics, our young stylists are prepared for practical work in the home, continued work in callege, or professional work. 34 A WATCHED POT NEVER EOXS Mm-mm, remember those delicious aromas wafting down the hall from the foods lab? With an egg beater and a mixing bowl these efficient lassies in crisp white uniforms can concoct a dainty dish fit for any king to eat. They believe in the words of the poet that wedding bells are the reguiem for courtship and romance, but the dinner bell is the tocsin of the soul whose music never palls upon the ear . The above picture was taken at canning time; under the direction of Miss Lela Alice Smith the girls are studying the art of preserving and jelly- making. They also learned to prepare vegetables, meats, pies, cakes, cookies and breads. 35 TWENTY DEGREES WEST OF SEMESTER FINALS That first floor lab course where they run Niagara Falls uphill is geol- ogy, those five hours in which you learn all about tides, erosion, dinosaurs, and sinkholes. How disgusted you look, Bandy. Can ' t you decide how that hole in the ground was formed? Maybe the W.P.A. dug it. The informal discussion back in the corner must surely concern sand dunes in New Mexico. (During basketball season? Impossible!) But all are not idle. Notice those industrious girls, and intent Mr. Bayne must be discovering a new mineral. Frank ( ' Texas ) Morgan blew into Bayne ' s shoes on a second semester dust-storm. Now he has the little chore of explaining that vol- canoes are not committing suicide when they blow their tops off. 36 w ■ m? l 9 A 1 li J9I WFrn |K «sf? ■I MM A PINCH OF TNT AND A DASH- Here we see the v blowhard boys of the back lab on the third floor. They work at Juco ' s most interesting phase of chemistry, quantitative anal- ysis. That blur of wash bottles, dissicators, burners, and books is not com- plete without the analytical balances way off in the physics lab. A slide rule and pen came in handy for the problems included in the experiment. Transfer the distillate to a separatory funnel, add 20 cc of ice-water, shake, and draw off- so reads the lab book for the organic chemists. You ' ll find them working all hours of the day with everything that smells! Hydrogen sulfide and hydrochloric acid are the by-words of the qualitative students as they hunt for that elusive cation. 37 ■■. ' -■. - • : ' . ' ' ' ' i ' zig$$M, $ , h F s - NOT OF OUR SPECIES vv Man is a homo sapiens of the family hominidae, of the order primates, of the class mammalia, of the sub-phylum vertebrata, of the phylum chor- data, the soothing voice of Professor Shaffer drones on while students drowse over open books. However real activity was evidenced on lab days. The first major operation was performed on the lumbricus terrestris (worm to you) . Other activities included the preparation of crayfish soup, torturing pickled grasshoppers and dissecting the harmless frog, which really resembles man inwardly. We learned that man did not really spring from monkey and that if a black Andalusion chicken married a white Andalusian chicken they would have blue Andalusian offspring. 38 WE SCIENTIVESTIGATE Physics is another heavy subject on the third floor — probably will fall through some day. The boys get to school at dawn and shoot guns, drive nails, and do any number of interesting things. Here we find Jack Schuster inspecting Orville ' s apparatus for determining the the coefficient of expan- sion of a gas. By carefull calculation they were able to conclude that absolute zero was below — 273 C. To ease the strain — did you ever try to write two books a week? - - we have Science Club which approaches the subject from an informal angle (usually less than the critical angle) . Our inspector above in the role of president guides the organization through Thursday activity periods and monthly evenings at Mr. Coff man ' s basement. 39 aMMfflgi mim ■1 liiil ttli 1111111 iiill iiii ■•Wwti- ' tllllf iii : lft llli SUCH STUFF AS DREAMS ARE MADE OF Things are gonna be different this year . . .

Cheerleaders have a hard life. They have to put up with half a dozen ' Tights! chiming in three seconds late to their ' Tea, Teams. They receive three hundred murderous looks for waking students from their assembly snooze. Why do they always want to raise the rafters on Friday mornings? But this guartet has many good points. They made us conscious of a superfine basketball team and a not- too-punk football sguad. With a couple of lessons in technigue by Simonet from downtown, they gave us a first-rate sample of how yelling should be done. Our cheerleaders know how to get the Pep out of Pepper. 41 DIGGGING PANSIES . . . Yea Team, Yea Team, Fight! Fight!! Fight!!! And they really did fight ... to the Kingship of the Western Division and within snouting distance of the State Basketball crown. And you can bet the pep clubs helped. With the Gold Diggers and Purple Pansies yell- ing themselves speechless, the squad ' certainly went places. All talents aren ' t devoted to sports; witness pep clubs in society. The organizations sponsored a banquet for the boys; and planned that grand show-skate holiday. May the Gold Diggers ever be digging for and the Purple Pansies planting posies on victories over all. 42 24-32-54 . . . HEP! The 1941 edition of the E] Dorado Grizzlies was potentially the best team in the State. Although they did not win all games, they performed credit- ably and gave all teams a run for the money. The record compiled by the Grizzlies was a little below average, but, with just a small favor from Lady Luck, they would have won every game. Most interesting game of the season was the Fort Scott clash, with the Grizzlies victorious 20-15 in the first football victory El Dorado ever scored over the Greyhounds. Sophomore lettermen were Captain Robinson, Beal, Selvy, Van Ert, Brewer, McKinney, Herrell, Reneau, Jackson, and Beeson. Freshmen were Davis, Bush, Burner, Draut, Daniel, Faulders, Stine, Ayler, Sharp, Riggs, Whitlock, and Chambers. 43 ■ -—— -• •——- — -— — i — i f — thT I r— — - •■•• -■ 1 -r- m ii r iMi lii ti ii n i tw ii ni n i iT  w¥ t i i  « i t t n mi i i TALK OF THE TOWN The El Dorado Grizzlies have completed the best season in the history of the school. The Purple and Gold have brought to our school the champ- ionship of the Western Division of the Conference and the honor of being runner-up for the State Championspip. Following is the team Personnel: Raymond (Ray) Yelly, Co-Captain has completed his second year on the Grizzly team. Ray has been an outstanding defensive player both years. Paul (Gene) Geyman, Co-Captain has completed his second year as a regular on the Grizzly team. Paul ' s level head, his sense of fair play and true sportsmanship were factors in winning. Fred (Tuffy) Robinson was one of the regulars on the Grizzly team and truly deserves credit for being an all-around athlete and good sport. 44 P J •B .♦ fll f|w A ] • ' ■ . ■ ■■■ .;. 1 ■o- ., . .

THEY GROUP TO CONQUER Harold (Billie) Beal was a main cog in the Grizzly machine this year and saw as much action as any of the other swell guys of the squad. J. W. (Zipper) Stephenson saw plenty of action in games by being capable of replacing anyone and doing a good job of it — in anything. Bill (Tucumcari) Breen, despite the fact that he is an Old cowhand from the Rio Grande , does get his share of the limelight for his playing. LaVurne (Undoo-Unwoo) Unruh was a regular who hailed from nearby Buhler and turned in many good games for the Grizzlies. Jack (Schumaker) Sharp was perhaps the best improved ball player on the team, if he improves equally as well he will be hard to handle next year. 45 THAT ' S A FOUL ON NUMBER 10 Bill (Scarpo) Draut is another Grizzly freshman who saw plenty of action, and turned in one of the best games of his season at Garden City. Lester (Lord Byron) Yelley, although not a regular this year, was one of the boys who made the regulars hustle to be regulars. Forest (Bonnie) Fouts, the city league flash, made the regulars mighty un- comfortable at times. He called himself ' ' All-State benchwarmer. vl Coach (Benny rides again) Binford deserves more credit than anyone else for the showing of the Grizzlies this season, and we think a lot of him. No little appreciation and praise should be given Forrest Jacobs, Tom Bush, Doster Daniel, Warren Grist, Vernell Stine, and Jewell Fouts. 46 GAME OF FAME Choose the correct letter to these questions about you, your classmates, and your teachers.

S. Government This nation-wide program of flight training, under the auspices of the C.A.A. is aimed primarily to build up a reserve of private flyers, who would be potential military pilots. The government foots the bill, which comes to about $700 per student. The program, which includes from thirty-five to fifty hours of flight training as well as seventy-two hours ground school course, is carried on by private flight contractors. The local program is entrusted to Mr. Erman 48 ' ..;., ;, .«§, W M X. ■ WEATHER EYE White, who serves as a very able flight instructor. Mr. Virgil Bayne was ground school instructor for the first two programs; Mr. Frank Morgan has carried on in that capacity since Mr. Bayne ' s resignation to become a regional C.A.A. inspector. Last summer Juco secured government permission to sponsor its first program, which was to include a class of thirty students. Soon thirty en- thusiastic would-be aviators (three of them girls) were ready to begin the very serious business of becoming private pilots. The above pictured Juco students are a few of those who have been privileged to receive the civilian pilot training; and who, in spite of a few downwind and otherwise bad landings, have received their private pilot certificates. ±y ON THE ASSEMBLY LINE Motors are humming, snips cutting, hammers pounding in Juco ' s metal shop. You ' re right; the boys are preparing themselves to make the stub- born metal conform to their will. It is such basic training as this that fits them for sheet metal work such as fitting, shaping, and assembling of the giant skyliners and airships. Answers to the Game of Fame 1. C 4. B 7. B 10.

That ' s the sound that issues from the ping-pong fiends ' -er, fans ' — hangout. This room is now partially occupied by Guilty Gus who squats gloomily in his corner and watches such experts as Jerald Reed and Kenneth Singer swat the little white balls. Occasionally Robert Williams and Orville Welch, first and second semester watch-dogs of the ping-pong amusement park sponsored by the Y. M. C .A., try their hands at this intriguing game. And they are indeed the hands of novices in com- parison to those of the school champions mentioned above. So when in ambling down the hall you come to a door jammed with neck-craning stud- enis, you will know that you have happened upon that haven of all refugees from study hall (strictly out of class hours however) . 51 WHO ' S WHO IN JUCO Sophomore Class President Joe King Vice-Pres J.
