Student Enuntzil If we look far ahead we will see, as always, East Lansing High School and its fine student govern- ment. The foundation of this good government was laid many years ago, but in 1950 we can recall that there seemed to be a little extra pep and enthu- siasm in the Student Councils activities. Dyrck DeVVitt, as president of the 1950 Student Council, put on an outstanding campaign which consisted of a series of speeches during the noon hour. His motto was to do what the students wanted done, for the benefit of the entire school. This motto has been and will be followed as long as East Lansing High Schools exists. Among the several money making projects of our council was the annual magazine sale. Wonderful prizes were given to high salesmen, and numerous sales enthusiasts flooded the city. The same universal spirit came over the school, when once again the carnival plans were being made. The gymnasium hummed with the groups of happy students, and once again the council had fulfilled its goal-to please the student body by doing something it had requested. Every few weeks, representatives were sent to the city-wide Youth Forum discussion. The council elected the representatives to be sent, and often classes or entire student bodies were present at the discussions. lt was good to see all the old familiar faces of the grads returning to the Student Council sponsored Alumni Ball. Several new projects were started this year, such as a cloak room as an added convenience for basket- ball fans. During the football season there was a very nice concessions stand, built by the council, for hungry spectators. The council helped finance the annual. Our auditorium was given a complete "new out- fit" in 1950. Long needed lights were installed in the ceiling and curtains were cleaned. New 1-lags, contributed by the council, are now flying on our stage. The students of 1949-50 thank the council offi- cers and their sponsors for a good year: Dyrck DeWitt, president, john Richardson, vice president, Janice Wheeler, secretary, Mr. Michelson and Miss Stophlet, advisers. Page 10 QENUULQJ5 XX 9 U wiv, XZ' WRX Vl Z ,TW .A.,, - K W i Q QQJX Seniors The Class of '50 that has now completed its preparatory course for the New Age, was once spoken of as "those little seventh graders." That was way hack in 1944. The class soon became known as a staunch supporter of school activities. By the eighth grade we are going in top speed and managed to be the lirst to place eighth graders in the Senior Band. By our freshman year we were becoming inter- ested in what the outside world was doing and it in turn was beginning to notice us. The ofhcers that year were Fen llieks, hlarilyn Byram, Elaine XVright, and Dean Stoppel. ln football "Adams Atoms" won three of the four games playedl Our class party, "lNlake-Believe," held a grown-up air, a freshman dance with a bandl Yes, we were on our way to fame. As sophomores, three of our heemen made the Varsity football team-john Bach- man, Bob Campbell, and Bon Eckert. To lead us on our way, Dave Thomson, Donine Stark, Susan Klaver and janet Matteson were elected to oliices. This was the year we made our party debut in high school by presenting l'El Borrachof' We were certainly earning a good name in old E. L. H. S. Not being satisfied, we strove onward in our junior year. This was the year to go really all out in making money for the senior trip. john Bachman took over as top man with Chuck Sand- ers assisting him. jerry Ketchum and Lucia Sca- varda completed the quartet of officers. The boys busicd themselves with football practice and many were awarded Varsity letters for their prowess. The junior girls busicd themselves in the band, chorus, and various clubs. The second semester got under way with the unforgettable -I-Hop, "Flamingo," which was rated the best junior prom ever to have been given. Next we presented our junior play, "lt's Spring Again." The cast and their director, Wir. Bichard, were proud of the results. This year was also the first time for a class play to have a two-night stand and with the biggest profit ever. We finished off the year by holding the annual junior-senior banquet. The years have slipped by rapidly and we now iind ourselves seniors preparing to graduate. VVe were lired with ambition to make this year one that we will always remember. Dyrck DeWitt supervised the Student Council as a very capable president. Chuck Sanders led the seniors as class president, Dean Stoppel was vice president, Lucia Scavarda recorded the business as secretary, Peggy Martin kept track of our money. We were also very fortunate in having Miss Stophlet and hir. Pulley for class sponsors. Work was started on the Ceniad early in the year, with Dorothy Branaman as editor in chief. Sales zoomed with all the seniors selling. We were really exceptionally good in sports our last year. We came through to win the Twin Valley Championship for the third consecutive year. Five of these iron-clad seniors earned a place on the all-conference team. We had an equally fine bas- ketball team, with ten seniors composing the Var- sity squad. This was really a year to remember. The rest of the class was by no means resting during this time. Our class play, "The Great Big Doorstepfl was presented on the l8th and 19th of November. The talented cast again gave it two nights with equal success. Qui' dances were truly extravagant. The Turkey Trample was complete with chocolate turkeys and appropriate decorations. The senior prom in the true spirit of the Class of ,50 was the best ever to be given. The remainder of the year was lilled with many more social events. These events were brought to a climax by the objective of our money-making projects, the senior tripl Every minute of the trip was well-worth the hard work. It was an exciting experience and everyone returned tired but thor- oughly happy. The old age has now come to a close. We look back with pride at the last six years, and with a twinge of regret, we hnd graduation no longer around the corner, but right here ahead of us. QXEJ Page 12 CHARLES H.

S. preparing to embark upon the road of knowl- edge once again. They are training to become the future scientists, mathematicians, and helpful leaders in this new age of invention. Leading these master-minds was a well-chosen crew of ofhcers. Bud Kropschot shouldered the weighty problems by holding the position of presi- dent. Assisting him was Mary Anne Ruhl, vice president. joan Adcock, secretary and Sheila Harper, treasurer, brought out the legal factors for the class. Many hardships were avoided along the road by the quick. able planning of Miss Newhouse and Mr. fl. Smith. The problems and ideas of the class were presented to the student council by john Richardson. vice president of the council, and john Brogan, Harlan hlarshall, Bob hlonfort, and Alice Severance who were also members. A diversion from studies was needed now and then. Y-Teens, Hi-Y club, and the Library Club were a few of the many activities the juniors en- tered. Talent being very abundant in the class, their contributions to the band, orchestra, and chorus were appreciated by the other students. Muscles as well as brains were well distributed among the class. The juniors were active partici- pants in football, basketball, and baseball. Stand- ing behind these teams were the cheerleaders, four of whom were juniors, Sally Gibson, Evie Noble, Pat Gregory, and jeannette Warner. In turning to the enjoyable pastime of dancing and parties, the Class of '51 was highly successful with their unforgettable j-I-lop, "Misirlou,,' held on February 18. This colorful annual dance was presented under the capable leadership of co-chair- men, Lois Odle and Bob Monfort. The year was brought to a climax by the junior- Senior Banquet on june 8. The class ended the year, well supplied to start the all important senior year. ,loan Adcoclz, Secretary. Page 28 J 1 V if VV XE. X g,,: it V V ,,gA V F W. r, 4 1 . .

Steen and hir. Seim were the very ellicient advisers, who helped smooth out any wrinkles that occurred for these active tenth graders. The many ideas of the sophomore class were ably carried out by the four members, Dick David- son, Dan llieks, Carl Napoli, ,lim Pocock, who were on the Student Council. "Confusion" is a name the students of E.L.H.S. will long remember. The Soph Prom, in common words, was a great success. The talented sopho- mores did an excellent job of portraying the every- day life of teen-zlger. Refreshments and a vaude- ville job completed an evening of fun. ln sports, the Class of '52 was at the top. Six- teen sophomores turned out for football with great success. Three members, lim Herrick, Don llardon, and Dick Davidson made the Varsity team. The others were important members of the reserve team. VVinter didnlt bring a close to sports though, instead it opened up two new activities, basket- ball and wrestling. Eight boys turned out for basketball and several boys went out for wrestling. Spring held many opportunities, for track, base- ball, and tennis. The sophs were active members of all these sports. The class as a whole was right behind the teams. They attended many away games as well as the home games. The second party of the year given by the Class of '52 was the unique "Sock Hop" held on lWarch 3. This completed a full year for the sophs, and they are now looking ahead to a bigger junior year.

Guiding them on their way was hits. Nelson and hliss Demorest, the very capable advisors ol' the Class of 53. The class was also adequately represented in the Student Council by Denny Doolen, Dan Smith and lim Krone. To meet the New Age with a new idea, the ninth graders installed a Class Council. Two students were elected from each English class to meet with the olheers. ln this way the inconvenient, unwieldy class meetings were eliminated and much more was accom- plished. Their egorts were well-appreciated by the class. A dance that will long be remembered by the ninth graders was "VVinter Wonderland", which was held on December 16. It was a very successful party, with the honors going to the many well run committees. This being a very athletic class, the coaches were well supplied with talent. Thirty-six boys did the job for hlr. Adams in football this fall. They ended with a commendable record of two wins and two loses. Their basketball season was equally line. The girls actively participating in C. A. A. Other industrious freshmen were welcome additions to the bands and orchestra. The trial year having ended successfully, the fresh- men are out to make the next three years just as victorious. GQVE Page 36' ' ,V .. VV 1 x . 5 6 -. .

V 'f gy' , ff Sylvia Collins IIL S5 Don Roberta Churchill Dell UF '5 The Class of ,54, as East Lansing High School is finding out, is an eager, industrious class. This year of '49-50 has been a busy one for the eighth graders. To signify their entering into a new age of time, they initiated a different procedure of voting by campaigning for class officers. Amid the clamor of party platforms and tacking up signs, these officers were elected: Charles lVlcCaffree, president, Bob Powell, vice president, Marcia Crimes, secretary, Marilou hlausteller, treasurer. Working with the class officers was the eighth grade student council consisting of sixteen members. These students did much to further the work and social activity of the class. The Junior Band was one of the many activities that these hardy eighth graders participated in dur- Page .41 ing the year. Fourteen members of the band were from this grade. Sports helped take schoolwork OH3 the minds of the students, with the girls participating in C.A.A., while intramural basketball took up a good part of the boys' days. A happy memory now is the eighth grade class party that was held on November 4. It took place in the E.L.H.S. gymnasium, where dancing and a gay floor show were provided for entertainment. During the evening cokes and donuts were served, which helped make it fun for all. This was followed up in the spring by another party. Again it was a big success. These and many other happy times brought the end of a fine year. The class greatly appreciated Mrs. Wild and Mr. Rehyburger for their help as class sponsors. win 1, W i at M 5' 92, Q ' PN' 4 ' riff af .s f Il' M X 5' 0 If 26 2 4. X Y 435' Siwq?

The seventh grade class was too busy with their new adventure, high school, to be sad. They were beginning a new type of life in a new age. The first objective of the class of '55 was to elect their leaders for the year. David McCaffree, president, Stuart Foster, vice president, Anne Fee, secretaryg Kay Byer, treasurer were the officers elected. They did a very able job, along with the help of the seventh grade sponsors, Miss Schmieding and Mr. Budde. Not satisfied wth concentrating merely on studies, seventeen classmen joined the junior band, and the school can look forward to the important part they will soon play in the marching band and orchestra. Nlusic was DOI their only source of pleasure, they took up another type of creative work, art. The junior ' e OM, Hyiilil ' it X.

To add to this busy life, there was athletics for both boys and girls. Volley ball, basketball and tennis were provided in G. A. A. for the girls. The boys organized section basketball teams and carried on some very lively games. The week before Christmas was an exceptionally exciting one for the seventh graders. On December 14, a class Bohemian was held with many delicious foods being served. This was supplemented by a dance where everyone enjoyed himself immensely. The week was brought to a close by two class plays. Miss Schmiedingls section gave "In Back Streetsf' and Mr. Budde's section gave "Scrooge" Another wonderful party was held in April. Danc- ing, an intermission show, and refreshments made it fun for all. Even though the year has ended, and the newness of high school has worn off, the seventh grade spirit will never depart.

Their out- standing performance of the year was, of course. the operctta "The Student Princen, which all the groups combined to give and was a huge success. At Christmas time they visited the hospitals around town and made all the invalids' Christmases much happier with their gay, lively carols and soft, re- ligious melodies. At Christmas time also they presented a much enjoyed assembly to the student body with an excellent selection of Christmas carols. both new and old. Leading the schools fall social events the big informal chorus dance, "Autumn Notes", as it was appropriately named, was under the excellent chairmanship of Tom Tinker with very active com- mittees working under him. The gymnasium was decorated in a gay autumn theme, and members of the chorus, including Connie Graham, Bob Tay- lor, Evelyn Noble, the junior girls' trio, and boys' sextette, provided entertainment during the inter- mission. The money from the dance helped raise the funds necessary to give "The Student Prince." Many public performances have been given by the choral groups. including performances at the Lions Club, Apollo Club, and several womens clubs. The vocal department is made up of special chorus, girls' chorus, and boys' chorus with the attendance totaling near one hundred. lt is not made up entirely of talented people, but they 'fall are enthusiastic and can be proud they are mem- bers of such an up and coming organization.

The comparatively new idea of a timely picture in each issue increased the attractiveness of the paper. Many familiar by-lines, such as "The Tnquiring Reporter", "Key-I lole Katie", "junior Hia Litesn, and 'Sports Features" have become a per- manent part of our bifweekly publication. Let's take a look and get the inside story on how the Trojan Trumpet reaches you. The hionday after publication, the editors and faculty advisors meet and suggest improvements for the next issue. The duties are designated and the reporters' as- signments are posted immediately. These are due Thursday. That afternoon, the reporters' stories are copy-read and re-checked.

Library Illuh The Library Club is playing an important role in preparing our student body for the literary world of the future. As East Lansings top literary group they have shown what an important place thc library occupies in our school system. They have catalogued all new books and have supplied a wealth of information to the useful vocational files. This fall the club elected Peggy lluffman presi- dent and lim Peters secretary to lead them through a successful year. Peg was East Lansings repre- sentative in the Library Workshop at Clear Lake Camp in October. She returned with valuable information about the opportunities in library work. Page 61 The Library Club, under the sponsorship of Mrs. Ludwig, has shown again this year that it is presently working for the advancement of culture and looking forward to the day when its members will be leaders in the literary world. The November Book VVeek tea in honor of the faculty was very successful and is due to become an annual affair. February 22 was the memorable Brotherhood Day. The club was host to many foreign students attending Michigan State Col- lege. The days activities included the Brother- hood Assembly and the faculty tea for them. This program did a marvelous job of promoting lasting friendships between the peoples of the world, Is ...qs s S r-143084, .Q fr- one i Z SECOND Row: A. Severance, S. Yaeger, C. Hill, I. Pomeroy, I.

Senior As junior and senior girls, the members of Senior Y-Teens are starting now to set their goals for the future. Cooperation, religious tolerance, and com- munity service have been their aims for the past, and will continue to be far into the future. With its seventy members this club has been very active during the year. While they sponsored many social events for club members, they also took part in many service projects, which were beneficial to the needy and the ill. The Thanksgiving meeting turned out to be a scavenger hunt to obtain food for baskets for the neecly. This project, which was greatly appree eiatetl, was typical of the numerous service meetings. The largest social event of the year was the Snowball. .X majority ol' the club members worked long hours to make this dance a success. Snow scenes and a large snowman set a perfect atmosphere for this annual Christmas dance, and this of the year of '49 will long be remembered. Other programs and activi- ties of the past year were the Senior Recognition Y-Teens Banquet, a clance in the spring, movies, speakers, and skating parties. Several new features were begun this year, such as many meetings were opened by some songs. Also at the close of each and every meeting, a worship service was presented, followed by refreshments. The Senior Y-Teens are youth members of the local Young VVomen's Christian Association and send two members to both the CofEd Council, and the Inter-club Council, both of which are city wide. These two clubs make plans for the youth programs at the Y.VV.C.A. This years hard working council were as follows: Karen Ekbladc, president, Mary Ann Ruhl, vice president, Sally Cibson, treasurer, Pat Cooley, secre- tary, janet lrlicks, social chairman, Sheila llarper, publicity, Ann Ricks, worship, Carolyn llill assisted by lletsy jones as accompanist, music, Sally Yeager, service, jan VVheelcr, program, joy Pomeroy, Co-Ed Council, Karen Foster, and Alice Severance, lnter- club Council.

They are now getting ready for their graduation. and the usual confusion is pres' ent. However. they have not forgotten the time when they. as lunior Y-Teens. perhaps for the first time. tools an active part in school organizations. ln September. we recall, how they put on an all out campaign for members. Even the study hall board was a visual advertisement. The most con- vincing factors of all, however. were the girls them- selves. They made their meetings and parties so interesting that several members were gained on curiosity alone. The 'most amazing part of it all was that every member was a rung of the ladder to the success the club attained. Diane Keippert as treasurer, was the bottom rung of this ladder, because the Page 63 Y-Teens dues paid to her enabled the club to finance its numerous activities. As the ladder climbed higher and was just about to reach its goal, two girls were present to give it that little extra push. These peo- ple were hlarilyn Lewis, secretary, and Barbara lllheeler. vice president. Yllhen the clubs ideals began to sway. Mary lane Adams was right there to steady it by stating the organizations motto- "To grow spiritually. mentally and physically through worship. service, and fellowshipfl Vlwith such a wonderful start as these freshmen and sophomore girls had, you can imagine what successes they continued to be when theiv reached the positions of their old griends. the Senior T- Teens. Our class reunion is breaking up now. but the refreshing memories we received here will be cher- ished tor a long, long time. I Founru Row: D. Brogan, H. Marshall, VVithrow, F. Hicks, R.

Dur- ing the course of the afternoon, you switch to your favorite sport programs and here is what you find: The annual Rose Bowl game is being played, and as you gaze upon the Nations outstanding football stars you recognize many players as old East Lansing grads. Later in the afternoon the two leading professional basketball teams are fighting it out in Madison Square Carden. Thats right-that last basket was made by a former Trojan eager. and look at the speed of that man who is guarding him! Yes, he's an East Lan- singite. too. That night there is the championship wrestling bout, and you have a chance to watch your ex-high school idol perform. Yes. wherever you may turn in the future you'll see newspaper headlines praising former Trojan tennis stars, and the many East Lansing grads taking honors in the track, cross country and golf worlds. You'll hear broadcasts of the Major League baseball games ringing with familiar high school names. Cather together the present athletes of East Lan- sing High School and what do you f1nd?You're right. The East Lansing Varsity Club. The club is com- posed entirely of major letter winners and its purpose is to further good sportsmanship and promote interest in all athletics. Bob Campbell led the Varsity Club in its very successful year. He was ably assisted by Dean Stoppel, vice presidentg jerry Ketchum, secre- tary-treasurer and Mr. Adams, sponsor. The many activities of the Varsity Club included ushering at football and basketball games and spon- soring both banquets that marked the end of the football and basketball seasons. The social events for the year were the hayride and dance. The East Lansing Varsity Club has had an out- standing year promoting good sportsmanship and interest in all athletics. They have done an excellent job of preparing its members for their futures in the athletic world of tomorrow. GQVE Hi-Y Eluh OFFICERS OF HI-Y. President . llice President .,,.

These active boys took little time getting organ- ized and soon were busy making plans for 1950. Klr. Knox sponsored frftyffive boys this year, which composed one of the largest Hi-Y Clubs ever. However, not only was the club outstanding in numbers, but it also had a fine goal: "To create, maintain, and extend tlzrongiz- ont tile school and conznznnitj' the standards of Clzristian ideals." The annual week-end trip to Mystic Lake was outstanding on the social calendar for the year Page 65 , .Fenimore Hicks .. Erich Beurmann . . . Tom Harle . . . .Sam Knox 1950.

Future Hnmemakers nf marina Can you remember in 1950 when you stared starry-eyed in the door of an exclusive shop, think- ing how wonderful it would be to sit ineonspieuously in a corner and gaze at the beautiful clothes being modeled. Little did you realize then that if you had gone up on second Hoor in the home economies room and looked in, you would have seen some of the most fashionable dresses of the year. Not only would you have seen them modeled, but also made. There were many original creations turned out that year, and today their creators are still at work. There is one of the E. L. graduates now! See that stunning suit she has on. Yes, she made it herself without any trouble. And you may be sure that that certain lass is also a wonderful cook. She has attained at least one of the goals of that club, namely, "to foster the development in creative leadership in home life." The three main goals of the club that year were to provide individual and group recreation, to further interest in home economies, and to foster the devel- opment in Creative leadership in home life. They worked hard to attain their goals, but they also had a lot of fun. It seemed that every time you turned around you heard of something they were or had been doing. Among the several meetings throughout the year was a talk by Miss jackson from the local charm shop. A skating party, a big tea in spring and a huge Christmas party were the other events. Homemaking clubs like this active, ambitious one are the reason for the outstanding homemakers of today. Page 66' T WL... ,,,. .,,......-r FOURTH Row: H. Tukey, B. Dietrich, D. Doolen, L. Carter, J.

France and gay "Paree"f It looks as if the country has regained its pre-war prosperity and the allure that world travelers love. Notice how many American tourists are on this beautiful Champs Elysees. Say, aren't those young women former East Lansing High School students? They certainly seem right at home, donit they? Their participation in our high school French Club must have prepared them for this future trip. This present year "Le Petit Dejeuneru has had many interesting meetings which actually would make any teen-ager wish for that future journey to exciting France. The officers who led the French Club through a very successful year are president, Karen Foster, vice president, Mary Ann Durkeeg secretary-treasurer, Barbara McCray, program chair- man, Francis Pteedg and sponsor, Mrs. johnston. The club's name was changed from 'iLe Dejeuneru to "Le Petit Dejeunerf' When translated, "Le Dejeuneri' means lunch and the club formerly met at that time. "Le Petit Dejeunern stands for break- Page 67 fast and that is when the organization held their meetings this year. Every other Wednesday at 7:15 sharp, the earlyerising members carried out the French tradition of eating delicious rolls and piping hot chocolate. One of their early morning speakers Showed colored slides of a trip through France, and another meeting featured the French movie 'Symphonie Pastoralefi Other activities enjoyed by the group were the fine Bohemian given by Karen Foster and the selling of candy bars at athletic events. Le Petit Dejeuner has continued to send monthly packages of food and clothing to Michele Pairer, a five year old French war orphan. This project has grown until the members now feel as if they, too, are doing their part in helping the people of Europe help themselves. "Le Petit Dejeuneri' has really had a wonderful year, and every one of its members are looking for- ward to that future journey to France: a land thev know and love. ' Latin Iiluli Membership in the Latin Club, the Amiei Ana tiquorum, is open to all students enrolled in Latin Classes and to any other high school student who has had one year of Latin previously. The object of the elub is to otier a more informal opportunity to study Latin and to foster interest in the subject. Alter the new members were initiated in the fall, the elub met every lirst and third Thursday ot' each month and had a variety of meetings. During the Christmas season the elub sponsored a party at wliieh Christmas Carols were sung in Latin. lt sponsored an hour dance and also sold refreshments during the athletic contests. Speak- ers entertained the group with slides during the vefir 1 . in the spring the Latin Club sponsored an un- usual Ptoman banquet for all students in the Latin classes. This banquet is financed by money that students have earned during the year. Every at- tempt is made to create a Roman atmosphere and guests and members are required to attend in native dress.

Page 68 Pan Inerilzan liluh The passing years make this world of ours seem smaller and smaller. As a result, more Americans than ever will actually be taking that "dream cruise" to intriguing South America or even sunny Spain in the near future. The Pan American Club, under the able sponsor- ship of Mrs. Iohnston, has spent a worthwhile year preparing its members for just such a dream cruise. Anyone taking Spanish can join and learn more about our good neighbors of South America. Pat Cooley, president. and Carolyn Hoppert, program chairman, have led the active group in their aim to create better understanding between the Americas. There have been several speakers to keep everyone up-to-date on the customs, music, and dress that are popular down "South of the Border." The Pan American Club had a successful Bohe- mian early in the fall and several parties that will be remembered by all. The high lights of the popular get-togethers were the singing of gay Spanish songs and playing of the favorite South American games. The eye-catching displays of Pan American souvenirs in the East Lansing Book Store and school library were one of the year's service projects for the Spanish Club. This year has been an inspiring one for this organi- zations members, who are looking toward their future travel plans with confidence and a knowledge of our good neighbors to the South. So let's all lift our sombreros to the Pan American Club and to its leaders for a fine year of promoting good will. 1. ., 7.,.,,,... FOURTH ROW: C. Bubolz, W. Stevens, B. Mercer, C. Barr, P.

Band and llrlzhestra Eluh You Hick the dial on your large perfected television set of the future, and your favorite orchestra comes on to the screen in full color. Now you can not only hear, but see the people who bring the music you like best whether it's "be-bop" or Bach. The Band and Orchestra Club has the jump on the future by getting its members fully prepared for their debut on television, in ultra-modern band shells, and sleek new concert halls. The group, under the fine sponsorship of Mr. Rinehart, choose Bill Cardner to lead the club this year. His cabinet consists of vice president Dorothy Branaman, secretary Marian Stein- bauer and Charlotte Edwards as treasurer. This club is well-known for its very impressive initiations and this fall was no exception. Many new band and orchestra members joined this year. The club sponsored many money raising projects, such as the selling of food during games, the success- ful rummage sales and paper drives, and the two popular concerts. The money in return goes to buy the new instruments and finances all the band trips for the year. So-let the drums roll out-let the trumpets sound -and the cymbals crash-for here comes our band and orchestral! They have marched through the present year with Hying colors, and with the help of the Band and Orchestra Club, are eagerly anticipating their musical futures of fame and fortune. Page '70 ,u -.. ...mwww-. llramatins Club Bob Monfort, jim Crummer, Ann Ricks, and Kay Ritts as this years officers of the newly formed Dra- matics Club did a great deal toward making it an outstanding success. This club was the largest club in E.L.l-IS. with its ninety members. It seems there are going to be several Broadway stars that started here in this Dramatics Club. The goal of this club is to make available to all students an opportunity to cooperate in dramatic activities. With Mr. Prichard as the clubs sponsor, a good group of ofhcers, and a wonderful turn out in members, this club has given several wonderful assemblies this past year. Page 71 Since there were so many members in the club, the officers decided to divide it into ten dramatic teams. These teams chose their own plays, meeting time and cast, and had a great deal of fun doing it. This is how they worked. A team chose a clever Christmas play, then tryouts were open to the entire Dramatics Club. Tryout night saw several nervous members, and the next day saw many anxious faces until at last the cast was posted. The producer, Kay Pmitts, the cast, and the several committees made this short play a very successful entertainment. Many, many more plays were presented by this extremely active club throughout the year, providing enjoyment for all. E ,fiat E STANDING: Alfredson. D. Tuttle, D. Tinker, S. Robertson, B. Farrell, R.

The proud owners, assisted by Bill Dietrich, secretary-treasurer, have just put the finishing touches on a display of reprints from the hles of the 1950 Camera Club. A closeup of their display shows pic- tures of school dances, shots at the football games, and other school functions. There are even some stills from the movie the club made of school organizations. They caught the Student Council during meetings and the Ceniad and Trojan Trumpet staffs at work on the things students heard about but seldom saw. That group of snow scenes are from the picture con- test they held to further competitive interest. This lifeesized enlargement is of Mr. Hallie Smith, the club sponsor.

Sylvia Brown Vice President ...,. Secretary-Treasurer . . . . . . In 1950 the Art Club was started, this act ful- filling the requests of many artistic students. About fifty members joined the roll call that first year and with the help of Miss Demorest, set the new born club off on the right foot. During the first year the members composed the club's goal for the years to come. With a pur- pose of giving all interested in this field ample opportunity to get more art experience, the mem- bers spent many Nlondays in room number ninety busily at work. The greatest time consumer for the club was working on various projects which were developed for the use and enjoyment of the entire school. Stained glass windows made by the club will in- fluence the art work of Christmases to come. Endless streams of posters have paraded from . . .Carolyn Phillips . . ..... . , .Charles Figg the club's meeting place to colorfully inform the student body of the numerous parties, plays, oper- ettas, games, and meetings throughout the past year. We can imagine that several famous com- mercial artists will be developed by the club. No one will consider the time spent at the meet- ing as lost time, because each and every person benefited from the experience received there. Some students who did not have a chance to enter art on their schedules have found the club an answer to their desire for expression. Regular art students always will be interested in a chance to express themselves on paper, cloth, and canvas. judging from the hit the 1950 Art Club made on everyone concerned, it is believed there will be an indefinite continuation of it. Many thanks to its founders! l Page 71, Qs ',11 ff ., 4 at as ' . v-' a , W tr S . ,'1" A ' f " H Ilrfl X I W, ,fyy .

The town sheriff happened to be on the scene and promptly locked the theatre. He then began to solve this mystery within a mystery. Eventually each member of the star-studded cast came in for his share of suspicion. Page 75 The corpse disappears, and confusion reigns su- preme, for there are too many murderers for the hapless Sheriff to arrest. The surprising climax finds the corpse not dead at all, but quite alive! The solv- ing of the intriguing mystery-farce Murder in Rehearsal had the entire audience guessing during the two hours of suspense and chuckles. tf1 P' ll 0093!

The Senior Pla Under the direction of Mr. X'Varren Richard and Peggy liabian, the Class of '50 turned to better things in its two night production of "The Great Big Door- step." The Crochet family turned to better things also when .Xrthur their elder son found the magnificent doorstcps which initiate the plot of the play. The scenery by Margie Meade depicted in detail the unstable shack and surroundings near Grass Margin, Louisiana. The cast consisted of seven members of the Crochet family and Uncle Dewey: also major supe porting roles appeared in the characters of Tobin, a migrant Texan bachelor, Mrs. Dupre, the landlady who lynew better than to try to collect the rentg Tayo Delacroix, the boy friend at first but his felonious character shown later, and Mrs. Beaumont Crochet, though no relation to the above, and her need for thousands of lily blossoms for a wedding ceremony, which provided the financial assistance for the Crochets in the third and final act of the play. The Crochets' family problem was to buy for back taxes a house to match their newly found doorsteps. This was a difficult job for the Commodore, the breadwinner, because of his occupation as a drainage expert Cditch diggerD and his generally lazy attitude. "Duck,l' the mother of Elna and Fleece, the mis- chievous twins, has more than her share of work in keeping her large family together. The daughters Topal and Evvie were interested in men, Topal being desperate and Evvie just wanting one to give up so she would have purpose in joining the service of the Lord. The elder son, Arthur, finder of the doorsteps, provided many moments of laughter in getting his mouth stuck open with an indiscriminate pool ball. The play was received very well by the audience, and the cast showed their excellent ability to handle a plot of a very intricate emotional nature. Page T6 x , x 1 1.

There is Fred Taylor leading the parade. just as he led the twirlers and band in im- pressive performances years before in high school. As these world-champion majorettes strut down the street, we recall their many performanC6S Wl1iCh led to this fame. Under the leadership of the band director, Mr. Rinehart. they drilled for many long hours along with the band. learning a variety of cleyer formations. Remember the lighted shows like the airplane formation. with the majorettes twirling lighted barons in the dark for the propellers, and fl1C band members with lights on their caps? There were many spectacular drills as well as other forma- tions. Not only did they twirl at football games, but they also performed before the basket ball fans Page 79 between the second and third quarters of the games. Some of them attended the summer twirling school at Alma College to further their skill in twirling. Later the majorettes passed on their knowledge to the underclassmen who were striying toward the same goal. Those students will undoubtedly twirl to fame as these experts did. Une of the high-lights of each year was being able to twirl and march with the band at the one away game they attended. Since the band was allowed to go to only one away game a year, it was quite an honor to be chosen. Aside from all, the twirling programs, they also ushered at the band concerts and football banquets each year. VVe can readily see that all these experi- ences were the beginning of the stepping stones which led to their fame, and to their marching and twirling in the annual Nacys Christmas parade.

Cheerleaders The New Age of 1950 is upon us, and with it comes invention and improvements. Yes, improve- ments even in cheerleading. Last year hlr. Rinehart became the cheerleading coach of East Lansing lligh School. Through him cheerleading became a stable organiaation which brought many needed changes. Tryouts are held twice a year, once before foot- ball season and again before basltetball season. lireshmen, lleserve, and Varsity Cheerleaders are chosen at these times. Practice became a rule and twice a weclt different routines, as well as the old ones, are worlied out anti pe1'lCetetl. This fall the varsity cheerleaders received new uniforms which were the finishing touches to a line squad of girls. This year We had Kay Pmitts, Evic Noble, Pat Gregory, Sally Gibson, Martha Landon, and Patti Tossy as Varsity cheerleaders, Jeannette VVarner and Lois Dygert as Reserve cheerleaders, and Glair VVaters, Luanne Voorhees, Audra Stark, and Nancy lrwin, the lircshmen cheerleaders. East Lansing will never forget the pep and enthu- siasm that was created at all the games and pen assemblies. Page 80 4 3 , !

This year he undertook another job, the athletic director- ship. Mr. Adams also coached those future varsity footballers, the freshmen. Mr. Buschman coached both the tennis and golf squads. With two spring sports to coach, he is kept on the double from April to unc. Ile did an excel- lent job with both sports in '-19. His tennis team won the iliwinfvalley Championship, and his golfers placed second. In their state meets these two teams finished sixth and fourth respectively. hlr. Peppler, East Lansings new football and baseball coach, definitely proved to Trojan fans that he knows his football. Under his tutelage East Lansing went undefeated in Twin-Valley competi- tion, to win the championship. hir. Smith, basketball coach, deserves a great deal of credit for his 319- '50 team. He molded this quintet into a high scoring unit. As we go to press, this squad has won 10 and lost only 4, East Lan- sings best regular season record in 5 years. lylr. Sullivan is East Lansing's new wrestling and reserve football coach. As we go to press, his grap- plers appear strong enough to retain East Lansing's position atop all other Class "B" Schools in the state. Mr. Behberger is our new assistant football and freshman basketball coach. His excellent scouting reports played a most important part in the Trojans' T. V. Football Title last fall. Doctor Britton has untiringly rendered his services to East Lansing athletic squads for many years and he has become an integral part of our athletic prof gram.

Twin Valla lihampinns-19119 l9-i9 was another highly successful season for the East Lansing football team. Under the tutelage of their new coach. Xlr. Pat Peppler, and new line coach. Klr. lim Rehberger, the Trojans won seven and lost onei, to give East Lansing its third consecu- tive Twin-Valley championship. lncidentally, this was the fourth straight year that the Trojans have finished with seven wins and one loss. Still a little unfamiliar with their new offensive system, the singleewing, East Lansing lost its season opener and only non-conference game, to Godwin Heights, 7-6, at Grand Rapids. Eorgetting the Code win game. the team traveled to Hillsdale for their first conference game. Sporting a classy running attack, the Trojans trampled the Hornets in imprcse sive style, -il-6. East Lansing opened a four game home stand on Britton Eield by trouncing Adrian, 27-6. This win put the Blue and Wlhite on top of the league. Cold- water was the next team to visit Britton Field, and the Trojans outscored the Cardinals in a hectic battle, 25-14. East Lansing trailed Coldwater 7,6 going into the fourth quarter, but broke the game wide open with 10 points in less than six minutes. The next victim in the Trojan title drive was Albion, the only team to defeat E1 L. in '-18. East Lansing squared Page 83 accounts with the VVildcats, 21-O. The Trojans struck hard and fast in their homecoming game against lklarshall. Eour minutes after the opening kickoff East Lansing was leading l3-O, but they could manage only one other score the rest of the game and won 19-O. The lX'larshall game was interrupted briefly by some over enthusiastic college students who had just attended a pep rally on the lVI.S.C. campus. The following week the team journeyed to Sturgis for the most crucial game of the season. If Sturgis won they could tie E. L. for the title. The situation didnt look too promising as Sturgis led at the half, 60. The second half was as hard fought as the first, and by virtue of two long touchdown runs the Trojans came from behind to defeat Sturgis, l2f6. This victory assured E. L. of the Twin-Valley cham- pionship. The season was climaxed with a 27f7 win over Lakeview at Battle Creek. Lakeview held the Trojans to a 7-7 deadlock at halftime, but East Lan- sing buried them under a 20 point avalanche in the third quarter. The Trojans havent been defeated on their home grounds since l9-15. With each victory on Britton Field, East Lansing added to its string of victories at home. The Trojans have now scored7l8 consecutive victories at home. .Mui 5.3 X2 isx . . Yi is " p .E . . ,,'. .Q , N ,:,- N X sg: . is .

Bob played consistently well at his tackle position on the reserve team all season. 4. RON ECKERT, Senior. Ron was voted the team's most valuable player, and he certainly deserved the honor. His vicious blocking and tackling also placed him on the all-conference second team at guard. 5. JACK EDWARDS, Senior. Iack's blocking, tackling, and all-around football know-how earned him an end position on the all-conference Hrst team. He also received all-state honorable mention. 6. MARV GLADSTONE, Senior. Although not a starter, Marv saw quite a bit of action at his guard position. He excelled on defense. 7. MYLES GRAY, Senior. A large and immovable tackle in the forward wall. He was a good defensive player. 8. FEN HICKS, Senior. Although hampered by an injury through part of the season, Fen consistently played good ball. He was one of the team's co-captains. Fen also won all-state honorable mention. 9. JERRY KETCHUM, Senior. A very fast halfback, Jerry was a constant threat on offense. When carrying the ball jerry consistently made good gains. He played equally well on defense. 10. DEAN STOPPEL, Senior. Playing at center, Dean was a stalwart man on both oEense and defense. He also was one of the team's co-captains. Dean earned a berth on the all-conference first team, and won all-state honorable mention. 11. BOB TAYLOR, Senior. A small, fast, and shifty halfback. Three times during the season he returned kickoifs for touchdowns. These runs were 100, 95, and 85 yards respectively. These performances won him a Hrst string berth on the all-conference team, and all-state honorable mention. 12. "DAISY" THOMSON, Senior. Often referred to as "golden toe" by his team mates, Dave was an excellent extra point artist. He kicked 12 points after touchdown during the season. He also saw action as an end. 13. DICK WAUGH, Senior. This was Dick's first season on the varsity. He proved that he is a good tackle by his consistently line performances, both offensively and defensively. 14. DON WOLVERTON, Senior. Don played at every backfield position, except at quarter. He consistently played good football. Don scored three times during the season, twice on passes. Fnnlhall Shnrt Shuts 1. RON ASHVVORTH, Junior. Although this was Ron's first season of high school football he showed that he is an excellent prospect for a starting position at end next season. 2. JOHN BROGAN, Junior. A very fast and elusive runner, John scored six touchdowns during the season. His shortest touchdown run was 22 yards, his longest, 78 yards. John won all-state honorable mention. 3. JIM HENDERSON, Junior. Jim played excellent football all season. He was one of the top tackles in the league. He's big and rough, and should win all-conference honors next season. 4. HARLAN NIARSHALL, Junior. Harlan was the "brains" of the team this season. He left little to be desired as a quarterback, as he called the right plays at the right time. He is a great blocker and a stalwart on defense. 5. BILL BIORSE, Junior. Bill played great football behind Eckert, at guard. He would have been on the Hrst team at most any other school. Bill will be back next season and should shine in the line. 6. JOHN RICHARDSON, Jzmior. Another junior quarterback who alter- nated quite frequently at that position with Marshall. John is a good strate- gist and fine blocker. 7. KARL RUNDQUTST. Junior. Karl played solid football at guard be- hind Campbell. He should be great next season. 8. FRED SHAVER, Junior. Fred played at end behind Hicks. He showed plenty of aggressiveness, and good pass catching ability. He will probably be a starter next season at end. 9. Blll. VOIGT, Junior. A fast hard-driving fullback, Bill scored six touchdowns during the season. His best run was an 85 yard touchdown sprint that won the Sturgis game, and with it, the Twin-Valley Championship. 10. DICK DAVIDSON. Soplromore. Another fast hard hitting fullback. Dick alternated frequently with Voigt. He scored twice during the season. 11. DOX HARDEN, S0pl1o11101'e. Don's passing ability was a great help to the team, He threw two touchdown passes this year and also scored on a short run. 12, 13, 14. JACK CLINK, TOM TINKER, and CHARLES SACK- RIDER, Managers. These boys did excellent jobs as managers. They worked hard and put in a lot of time. They were always hustling, and it was certainly appreciated by the players and coaches. Keeping the players and equipment in good shape was just part of their job. All three of these fellows proved invaluable to the team. During the Coldwater game they had extra work to do as they carried numerous injured players off the field. Z if Z Wa! ' , X ' I ., at , W f l 6 f' '-1 '," 'V if ,' .4 lv. . A .3 4 1 0 f W.

Coach Smith had only three letter winners around which to build his varsity, but he shaped the boys into a high-scoring quintet. ln 7 of their 15 regular season games the Trojans hit for 50 or more points, and 3 times they reached the 6O's. Against Battle Creek Lakeview the team scored 69 points, thus establishing a new East Lansing one-game scoring record. the old record being 64 points. This 69 point total also tied the Twin-Valley Conference record. The Trojans won 10 of 14 games in Twin-Valley competition for third place. They also won their lone non-conference game. This record of ll wins in 15 starts gave the Blue and Wlhite an excellent .733 winning percentage. The season opener was East Lansings sole non-conference game. This game they won in the final minute, 52-49 over tr tall Class "A" Owosso team. ln their first Twin-Valley en- counter the Trojans crushed Hillsdale at home, 63-31. East Lansings next victim was Sturgis, 38-32 on the Sturgis court. The Trojans did not startffrhe new year right as they absorbed their first defeatxjof the season from Coldwater at home, 57-38. The Blue and White recovered from this defeat and won 4 consecutive games. They won in the waning seconds over Mar- shall at home, 43-40. At Albion they were victorious, Page 87 45-37. Back home the cagers dumped Adrian, 58- 37. At Battle Creek the Trojans easily defeated Lakeview, 53-33. At Hillsdale, East Lansing failed from the free throw line and was upset, 47-42. However, the Trojans bounced back for two more victories. The court men whipped Sturgis at home, 57-44, and won with an exciting finish at Adrian, 41-36. ln the next two contests, both on foreign courts, East Lansing was defeated. The team fell to Cold- water, 49-35, and to lX1arshall, 49-45. East Lansing finished the season with two brilliant scoring sprees. Hitting the basket with deadly accuracy and from every angle the Trojans romped by Lakeview, 69-46, and Albion, 66-53. ln both of these games the team bettered the school one-game scoring rec- ord of 64, and also averaged better than two points a minute. ln the district tournament the Trojans fell off the pace that they held at the end of the regular sea- son.

The Trojans fell to Lan- sing Sexton, Lansing Eastern, and to Jackson twice. The other two defeats were at the hands of a power- ful Lansing Everett squad. However, even with these defeats the Trojans remained a power among Class "B" grappling squads around the state. Coach Sullivan's inatmen scored their two vic- tories over Sturgis, East Lansing's only Twin-Valley foe in wrestling. The home meet with Sturgis was tops for excitement. In the first five weight classes there were falls. This unusual exhibition was fol- lowed by a forfeit, two decisions, and two more falls. East Lansing scored five of the seven falls for the victory, 30-19.
