Does one haye to be a good athlete to be an active member? The answer is "No," Many of the girls who participate in the games aren't unusually skillful. The one qualification is to be a senior high girl with an interest in sports. G. A. A. meetings are held on the third Wednesday of each month. although special meetings may he called in order to choose captains and teams when a different sport begins. The officers are elected in September and serve for the entire school year. Those chosen for this term were Nancy Stolze. president: Eleanor Utterback, vice-president: Toni Sajewski. secretary: and Sue Buren. treasurer. The C. A. A. sponsor. Xliss Selnesta. ofliciates at all games and awards the letters in the spring. She also presents the most outstanding athlete of the year, as deter- mined by vote of all girls in the gym classes. with a sweater. The first sport on the calendar each fall is soccer. with baseball rounding out the schedule in the spring. 100 Soccer -0 .. 'N- . 9.- Row I-Choicia Scai-le. Eleanor Utterback, Pam Peters.

The lirst sport on the agenda this season was soccer. Since football isn't usually played by girls. this rugged sport is played in its place. Only three teams were organized, but nevertheless there was plenty of excitement. When the dust cleared away, Choicia Scaife's team came out on top, with Pat Love captaining the runners-up.

Hockey, which followed soccer, is perhaps one of the most rough and tumble sports played. Anyone with the idea that girls are softies should have seen them go to it on Gill Field. Most of the scores were close. but in the final analysis Natalie Cembara's team emerged victorious, with Shirley Franckowskfs charges right on their heels. c g Y -XJ-' Row I-Nancy Fritz, Barabra Helms, Toni Sajewski, Nancy Stolze, Shirley Franckowslri.

Deck tennis succeeded hockey. lt is one of the most popular sports among the girls. This fact was proved by the many girls who went out for it. There were six teams in all. After the final point was made. captains Toni Sajewski and Anita Cox found themselves heading the winners and runners-up. respectively. A -32,31 P43 s . .v 1 fx.

Next came volley ball and with it even more excitement. This sport requires more team play than deck tennis and also more skills. Seven teams were chosen because of the large number of enthusiasts. The champs were led by Jackie Marshall, with Shirley Franckowski's team a close second.

Absent-Chuck Trottier. The record of our Red Devil Cridders in 1950 wasn't very impressive. but we must remember that figures don't tell the whole story. as may be proved next season. At the beginning of the season before a plague of injuries heckled our team. the Devils played a solid game, even though they did come out on the short end of the score, being tripped by Elkhart by a single touchdown. Then Crash, Bam, Ala- cazanl. the injuries began. Our key players were injured at one stage of the game or another. Searcy. Trottier, Wilson, and South - our returning lettermen - all were out for a time. and they weren't the only ones, either. Another thorn in the side of the Red Devils of '50 was the inexperience of the players. They all were game and did their best. but they just had to get that needed experience that makes a team a winner. This thought brings us to a bright star in the future of the team: the star being the experience gained by many underclassmen in the 1950 season. Seven of the boys who will be returning are fellows who saw a lot of action last fall. Congratulations to Coach Wayne Plew. his assistants-Newt Meer. Fred Marston. and Doug Adams - and to the team for a hne job. Special recognition went to Chuck Trottier and Fritz Sperling at the end ofthe season. Trottier was named to the All-Conference Second Team. and Sperling was elected honorary captain. All of the players did a job of which they could be proud.

Looking back over the athletic records of Elston High's teams in 1950, we see that the tennis team really had a successful season. Harold Wegneris Red Devil "Racketeers" for 1950 came in second in the N. 1. H. S. conference, and their season's record was seven victories against one lone defeat, that coming from a team that has been winning the conference annually in the last few years, namely Mishawaka. The big "guns,' of the attack were Neal Lee. ifl man: and ,lim Sweeney, 42. Able assistance came from Jerry Meilstrup, who played 43, ,lim Arnold, and Don Wolod. Of these five only Sweeney graduates, and so a great team is on tap for next year. Lee and Sweeney were among the best in the conference, and Sweeney has the distinction of win- ning every one of his single matches. We say, "Congratulations to the Red Devil Racketeers of 1950 for a fine record, and good luck in 1951.', SCORES Michigan City ....... ,,,.,. 5 South Bend Adams ....., ,,,.. 0 Michigan City ..,,,,. ,.,,,, 4- Fort Wayne ,...,,.,...,., ,,,.. 1 Michigan City ,...... ...... 5 South Bend Riley ..... ..... 0 Michigan City ...,,,. ...,,, 3 Elkhart .......................... ..... 2 Michigan City ....,,, ,,,,,, 3 South Bend Central ...,.. ..... 2 Michigan City ,,.,.., ,,,.,, 3 La Porte ..,.....,.,..,.,,.., ..... 2 Michigan City ,,...,, ,,,,,, 3 Goshen .,,..,,,.l,.,,..,,, ..... 2 Michigan City ..,.... .,.... 1 Mishawaka .,..... ..... 4- 111 Golf Team 1-'+--+ - - V-A . -f - .V -:Z . , , . -- 3 .. . .........-f..... . . ..

The thing that made this record seem a bit satisfactory. however. was the fact that Jim Will. Art Ladwig. Ron Swanson. and Dick Glassman. who were the top four of the team. were all eligible to play again in the spring of '51, The added experience they had gained last season should have pulled them through to a fine season in competition this year. Will already had an 84- to his credit. and Swanson and Classlnan each got an 85. Three fellows - Dick Korn. Dick Dwyer. and Jim Petoskey - divided the number-five spot on the team. All of these boys also returned for action. SCORES Michigan City Valparaiso ....... .. Michigan City .....,.. LLM: Hammond High .... 10 Michigan City S. B.

The Red Devils of the hardwood came through in fine style during the 1950-51 season. They beat our arch-rival, LaPorte. in both games with the Maple City "Mobsters." The Devils won twelve games against as many losses this season. Balanced scoring was the factor that put the Devils through. The team pulled its biggest upset when they defeated Mishawaka. a team that finished high in the conference this year. They also upset Culver in the third game of the season. Culver. previous to the City game. had been undefeated. Ham- mond Tech is another team that felt the sting of the Devils. The Devils were underdogs in all of these games but came through with decisive victories. The long shots of'Bob Szot, the driving of Chuck Trottier and Fritz Sperling, and the rebounding of Gene Burrell and Steve Delaney gave the team a well-balanced attack. All of the reserves were able to come in and hold their own. and so the Devils individually can be proud of themselves. Perhaps the most stunning defeat of the year was that given to us by South Bend's Central Bears, who ran up a score of seventy-four points against us. The Red Devil high for the season was sixty- three points. scored against Wanatah. The two jewels of the season were the two victories over LaPorte. each by two points. Those victor- ies alone were enough to make the season successful. Another big victory was the one over St. Mary's. In this game the intra-city rival held a one-point lead at the half. However, the Devils, sparked by the driving of Sperling. forged ahead and took the game by five points. The outcome of the sectional pleased no one from Elston High. but the team was not at fault. No team can play a game under the heavy pressure of a LaPorte-City game in the afternoon and be ex- pected to give another top notch performance at night. Rolling Prairie won the right to compete in the Regional. On the whole the season was highly successful. Coach Kohlmier had his players in top condition, and they gave a fine account of themselves.

They decide the family's policy and the way the family transacts its business, and they regulate money for educational purposes. Co-operating with the superintendent, the Board of Education hires,teachers and regulates the purchases of supplies. The Board of Education's authority is given to it by all of the relatives in the City. Mr. E. M. Peck is the patriarch president. Mr. S. A. Lauer takes care of the money, and Mrs. Fred Bluhm is the secre- tary. Members of all families in the City may come to the meetings of the Board of Education, which are held the second and fourth Wednesdays of each month at the house next door, thejunior high school. The Board of Education is ably assisted by Miss Alma Schilf, financial secretary, and Miss Gloria Kreft. assistant financial secretary. who have charge of the numerous tasks of bookkeeping and finance. - Miss Schilf Miss Kreft 8 Pink lmps Row lslfayne Shebloslfy lmanagerl, Donald South, Floyd Bentley, Tom Rux, Bob Brooks, Milt Dabagia.

The HB" team or the Junior Red Devils showed a great deal of promise. Doug Adams did a swell job. and his team lost only a couple of games this year. Our Pink lmps beat the La Porte junior varsity by a wide margin, and so the Devils of the future should certainly be able to hold their own against the Slicers. Don South. Bob Brooks. Tom Rux. Bob Randhan, and Ed Werner are all promis- ing. Group these with underclassmen Burrell. Delaney, Penfold, Gondek, Schreiber, Donaldson, Korn. and Waldo. and you have the makings of a conference championship team in 1951. The fellows we haven't mentioned, but who played Pink Imp ball, needn't feel bad, for in our estimation. the lmps had a fine team for a junior varsity.

Spicer struck out 38 men while walking only 7, and Tanski got on base 16 times by base hits or walks. Fine fielding by Leon Kosakowski. Bob Szot. Fritz Sperling. and Spicer meant a great deal in putting the team into a second place tie.

Dr. Nelle Reed and Miss Kemena take care of those students who become ill during school hours, give examinations to athletes, and keep careful watch over students to cure and prevent the many diseases that may pass through the family. Any student feeling ill may have a physical examination and receive temporary medical treatment. The family adviser is Miss Bess Day. Many students avoid years of failure and despair by receiving Miss Day's advice and guidance. Miss Day also helps students with their vocational choice. Mr. Robert Bucy is the "caretaker for black sheep" in our family. For those students who wish to Nplay hookey," Mr. Bucy is on the look-out.

Mr. Cecil Humphrey Assisting Mr. Humphrey is his efficient wife, Mrs. Martha Humphrey. Not only does Mrs. Humphrey do the work of an average secretary, but she has many extra duties, such as selling school supplies, checking the attendance of students, and sewing as a general information bureau for students who wish to know almost anything. Certainly it may be said that the efhcient organization and smooth running of the school life is due, in the larger part, to our family head and his assistant. The ELSTONIAN staff wishes to thank Mr. and Mrs. Humphrey for the assistance they have given us in the past year. 11 The head of our branch of the school family is Mr. Cecil Humph- rey. Every day he is on the job to guide and direct students in the tasks of their school life. He, as head of the family, sees that the building and equipment of our school are in good shape. Mr. Humphrey has, through hard work and determination, raised and up- held the scholastic standards of our school. so that it is considered one of the best schools in lndiana. Mr. Humphrey shows students what is required of them through- out their school life in the way of vocational and cultural needs. Since the various steps through family life are not all easy, Mr. Humphrey often gives extra en- couragement to the 'gblack sheep" of our family. to help them to the fulfillment of family life - grad- uation.

SENIOR CLASS HISTORY As we look through the Hold family albumfl we see ourselves three long years ago in the Sophomore Family. Remember? Cousin Bob Szot was president. Cousin Bob Bartels, vice-president, and Cousin Eleanor Utterback was secretary. We had Aunt Frances Mc Conkey and Uncle Del Miller as our spon- sors that year. Oh, there's some pictures of our big event that year. the Sophomore party! That was way back on October 2. 1948. and we used as our theme "Shine on Harvest Moon." Look at this page! Here are all our cousins of the Junior Family. We had Aunt Genevieve Klueh and lfncle Del as the sponsors: Cousins Bob Szot, Marvin Pozdol. and Catherine Ohms were the officers of the family. These pictures show the many activities in which we participated. There is the cast of the Junior Play. given November 18. 1949. We presented "Meet Me in St. Louis," and some of the leads were played by Connie Feallock. Bonnie Lindeman, Bob Bartels, Anne Noesges, and Tom Moore. Here are the business members of the Junior Family. They worked all year, selling hot dogs, candy, ice cream, coke, etc., at the basketball and football games. We also had charge of the "eats" after school. The next page has some of the best pictures. They are of our prom. "Iceland Fantasyq was our prom theme that year, and the lads and lassies really were dressed up that night of June 8. 1950. Here are the modern day pictures. This is the family portrait of the Senior Family. The oflicers are Cousin ,lim Sweeney. Cousin Fritz Sperling. and Cousin Bonnie Lindeman. When ,lim Sweeney left our family at the end of the first semester. we chose Fritz Sperling as president and Roosevelt Young as vice-president. Cousin Bonnie Lindeman remained as secretary. Aunt Marion Sprague and Uncle Sheldon Maxey were our sponsors. There are many pages of pictures, because we were very busy with all of the activities for the Senior Family. At the start of the second semester we all met in the "family council room" every day. and besides discussions about colleges, graduation, Class Day, etc., we also had some very good entertainment. There was a wide variety of entertainment from speeches on Lincoln and Washington, a history of the Boy Scouts, to ukulele playing and group singing. The Senior play was the Divine Flora, a humorous comedy that was enjoyed by all. As the weeks rolled on, we were kept busy publishing the ELSTONIAN, practicing for Class Day, and finally getting ready for Baccalaureate and Graduation. This album holds fond memories for all the members of the Senior Family, and we hope that the underclassmen will keep this book as an "old family album" and perhaps receive a chuckle from it in years to come. 17 THE mmxf R ? pfcorinv :ou con wffii AT WORK JG , "FU ,x it V 45? x ?

After much discussion it was decided that the Senior Class should present the comedy "The Divine Flora," March 2, 1951. Although some of the "family" objected at first, they put forth their best efforts and were rewarded by having produced one of the best plays ever presented in the Junior High School Auditorium. Miss Klueh deserves all thanks possible for so ably directing the play. The success of the cast was, of course, shown in the applause, but recognition should also be given to the various committees through which much of the work was done. These are the chairmen of the com- mittees: Patricia Pauley, Philippa Haller, Janet Boese, Gerald Hibnick, Joan LaBom, Barbara Benton, and Miss Muriel Green.

The juniors may be represented by the "flapper" period. or that period which falls between that of the "Victorian Age" lthe seniors! and the "Modern Age"'lthe sophomoresl. The juniors' high school memories begin when, as "sophies" they chose Mrs. Jeanette Urquhart and Mr. Harold Wevner as the chairmen of their class sponsors. "Cay Blades" Tom Rux, Don South, and D Larrv Powell were elected resident. vice- resident. and secretary, res ectivelv. Durin their so homore . , ,P P F.

That evenm the "so hles y P s ,P came dressed in their finest rompers and short skirts to the Sophomore Party, the "Babies Bawl. Then, as the sophomores increased in knowledge and age and became juniors, they filled quite a few pages in their memory books. As juniors they had a great deal of work to do. They had concessions at the "Rugby" and basketball games. After school juniors were waiting to sell their candy and ice cream. Many happy memories will come to the juniors in later years when they remember the prepa- ration for the Prom. Certainly none of these students can forget when they were in the "Flapper" period, when they were juniors. 41 W H A v A Y A G if L T H A T 2 O Ii 5,5 'I zu 002: 22" .Nm ,41dfn4lTl Ui' sadou PI '4"!lQ P1 . 3,9 laffga ' uf' Y 4 Qf G Z x A Junior Play 'wi If you were present in the junior high auditorium on November 23, 1950. it may be safe to say that your evening was well spent.

The play, a well-known one. was thoroughly enjoyed by the large audlence. Talent sparkled brightly that evening. and a very pleasant memory will be enjoyed by both partici- pants and audience for many years to come. CAST Hildegarde .... ...............

In a memory book or album there should always be a picture that will be a reminder of busy hours and time well-spent. Such a picture is presented in this Junior Concessions picture. Perhaps the quota- tion "The best way to a Prom and an ELSTONIAN is selling canclyl' is not an old or a well-known one, but nevertheless, it applies to the juniors' cause and job. Although their work was hard, the juniors will be rewarded when they present their Prom. and when the ELSTONIAN for 1952 is completed. 49 XB , 1 I 1 X 5 M XAA log 0 'P 4: , 'gf n,Nf.em ff f.,,k- S vvokk ' , :Spa ,i 1" ' 1 ke? www fig QSGZLOR is rlgcs A A. s ,.-,, 4A7f?f.

Our Sophomore party, held on September 29. headed the year in the social direction. The theme was "Ridge Runners" and was carried out effectively with the Ncrackerhoxu gym dressed up as a barn. Corn throwing and yodeling were a part of the action. Those attending dressed in true hill-billy form. with jeans and plaid shirts. Kenny Schreiber was our president: Merhth Houck. vice-president and Mickey Taylor. secretary- treasurer. They were well-suited to their offices. We chose Miss Wolfe and Mr. Ciffel as chairmen of our class sponsors to guide us in the proper "old timer" way. ,lust think! Next year we'll be Hskidooing" our way to be the Junior "sheiks" and "Happen," and our enthusiasm will find vent in the many activities of the year. 53 Sophomore Party Lf rw 'fl if 1 ,Q 2' :gy Remember our Sophomore Party held in the crackerbox last September? Didn't we have fun throw- ing corn and drinking cider? I remember the huge bales of straw and the corn stalks we gathered up. Lanterns suspended from the ceiling really transformed the boys' and girls' gym into a nhumdingerv of a barn. Our theme. "Ridge Runners" was carried out further by the appearance of those attending. Jeans. sweat shirts. plaid blouses. and brightly colored flannel shirts were prominently displayed. Master of Ceremonies. Billy Greene. introduced the various entertainers. who provided a full pro- gram. Jim Wille. our favorite hill-billy. sang songs in his true western style accompanied by his guitar. Next. a skit entitled. "The Marriage of Dazie Mae McSwine" with Jane Urquhart, Jackie Kalil, Lorelei Storey. Billy Greene. Janet Dittmer. and Carol Kaisner taking part. was the highlight of the evening. Barbara Helms. Mickey Taylor. and Jackie Kalil presented their version of "I Didn't Know the Gun Was Loaded." Community singing followed with such songs as "Good Night Irene," "l'm Looking Over a Four Leaf Clover." "Dear Hearts and Gentle Peoplef' and the school loyalty song. Refreshments. consisting of doughnuts. ice cream. and cider. were served followed by dancing for the remainder of the evening. We did have a jolly good time. agreed? 54 1 4.

Elston Senior High School. We can see that a good many changes have taken place since 1871, when three girls graduated from the very first high school, located at Fourth and Pine Streets. The second high school was built in 1875 at Eighth and Spring Streetsg in 1895 the building was destroyed by fire. While the construction of a new building was taking place, classes were held at Barker Hall. Recently the old Central School was torn down, and a beautiful new school has taken its place. The next high school was built in 1909, over an old cemetery at Detroit and Spring Streets. The school tnow the junior high schooll was named in honor of lsaac C, Elston, a pioneer of this city, donor of the land for the schbol, and one of the oldest members of our family album. This school served until 1924, when the increase of school enrollment made necessary the building of our present school. ln 1925 the building was finished. and it has become lsaac C. Elston Senior High School. 555 ' 'L' Central High School, 1895-1909 lsaac C. Elston Senior High School, 1925- 2 F" ,Q ,Q-ci '41 sv-12' mn., Q- - - 235, A, .

To make their musical numbers "nothing but the best," they begin practice at seven-thirty in the morning. ln the fall they practice out on Gill Fieldg at other seasons, in the band room. This group always plays a few numbers during the football games. They brought the band from the Jordan Conservatory of Music to the students for a very good concert. The band also partici- pated in the Valparaisoexchange concert this year.

The 7:30 bell rings. The maestro raises his baton. and the concert begins. Daily, a similar routine begins the Clee Club rehearsals under the direction of Arthur Miller. These rehearsals prepare for many excellent concerts throughout the year. In the fall the Clee Club traveled to South Bend to sing with other Clee Clubs of the surrounding area. The event was the Teacher's Convention. Christmas trees, snow, and crystals were the background of the Christmas concert, at which sacred songs and carols were sung. K , ln the spring the Clee Club busily prepared four ,rg X if Qs concerts. The annual Spring Concert featured popular music. The Glee Club appeared with LaPorte, Elkhart, and Goshen Clee Clubs in an annual "get-togetherw with a guest conductor. The Cvlee Club presented a school program with a variety of songs. The May Festival, at which the Club presented two numbers and joined in a combined one, closed the year of singing.

"To create, maintain, and extend high standards of Christian character throughout the school and community" is the pledge taken by Hi-Y members at their yearly initiation. With their sponsors. Mr. Hodges and Mr. Zahn, these active boys met every Thursday evening at the Y. M. C. A. where they planned and put into action a varied program. Looking up and down the aisles of the gym during the Moose basketball games, one could see Hi-Y boys calling out wares. During snowy football weather and balmy basketball climate these boys pro- vided programs for the Red Devil games. Hi-Y cooperated with Tri-Hi-Y in a Go-to-Church program. However, Hi-Y boys know that all work makes them dull, so they had a basketball team, they spon- sored "open houses" at the "Y,,, and they planned other parties.

Members have two meetings a month g one which is strictiy a business meeting and the other which is a social meeting at the home of a member. Two beach parties were enjoyed through the coufse of the year. In March they prepared and gave a radio program. which was entitled "LatinfThen and Now."

This is a very able and worthy group. indeed. for they aid in holding this large family together, safely and soundly. This junior association started off with a cam- paign for "Gifts for Yanks" at the request of the American Legion. They made up twenty-one Christmas packages for the Hines Veterans' Hospital. Another "feather in their cap" is the Red Cross Drive which attained a 1007: member- ship from all Senior High sponsor rooms this year. It is a very worthy group because it aids the less fortunate people in our families. The sponsor of the deserving group is Miss Henry.

Believe it or not, this is the club in which artists-to-be and future portrait painters get their flying start. Their activities this year have been a beach party and reports on modern artists. They enlarge their appreciation of good art by figure drawing. sketching, working with oil and water colors, and modeling in clay, With this knowledge, they hope to move into greater and better fields of art. To assist them with their work is Miss Cominer. President for 1951 was Joan LaBorng vice-president, Joe Chrapkowskig and Anita Cox, treasurer. l i ,' A lil 1 1 Q 'yi' ul 1, is 1 - M M ij - . 73 1, 4 .

Fashions have always been important to any family, and this one is no exception. Down through the years fashions have ever been dynamic. Everyone will remember the middy blouses, flapper dresses, and bloomers, as they will the long tight skirts, baggy sweaters, and blue jeans. With all the social activities and sports events in school many of the girls prefer to make their own clothes, although they have the privilege of making anything they want to make. Under the leadership of Mrs. Kelly, they elected Carol Pohl, presidentg Norma Collins, vice-presidentg and Marjorie Schultz, secretary. il? 'tb ' fltifliy .- 4' M f o,4- . Lr diygil , I 'lie-.

As in previous years, when fall rolls around, a group of seniors, the ELSTONIAN staff, chose a th'eme for the yearbook. You can see that this year's ELSTONIAN theme is that of the Family Album. Therefore, realizing that the world is leaving an old half-century, much the .same as the seniors are leaving their high school career, we think that perhaps it will be pleasant to look back and recall memories in our album, the ELSTONIAN of 1951. , ,4'i."'7 xii W 'X 'i -4 mf gf. un, - il .1 , sv I , lil l , X M '- .

To keep members of the family from falling by the wayside is the duty of the Student Council. The goals of this organization are to maintain good order. to promote better citizenship among the students, and to promote the best cooperation possible between the faculty and the students. Every student enrolled in this school is a member of this organization. Each home room has one representative in the Council and one alternate to serve in the absence of the regular representative. The representatives bring to the council various problems brought up by students in the sponsor rooms. The Student Council is divided into three groups. The first. the executive. is in charg.e of study hall monitors. The service group is in charge of the bulletin boards. and the legislative body has charge of the student court. Mrs. Herbert is the faculty adviser for the group. Sylvia Rulff was elected president, Dick Dwyer was chosen as vice-president. and Bonnie Lindeman was chosen as secretary for the first semester. For the second semester Dick Dwyer was made president: Jackie Schroeder, vice-president, and Melva Burns. secretary. 76 Hall Patrol A X - Row I--Marlf Saunders, William Croentlylfe, Arnie Bass, Earla lean nltlrins.

A solemn candlelight initiation provides the background when Tri-Hi-Y girls take their pledge "to create, maintain, and extend high standards of Christian character throughout the school and com- munity." Tri-Hi-Y meets every two weeks at the Y. M. C. A. at seven o'clock, under the sponsorship of Miss Wolfe. The Tri-Hi-Y sponsored many dances, both at school and at the "Y,,' and held bake sales to raise money to further their purposes. The Tri-Hi-Y participated in a "Go-to-Church Monthf' prepared bas- kets of food for the poor during Christmas, adopted a poor familyg and had many educational and interesting speakers at their meetings. A Mother and Daughter tea was held in May. That month a beach party was also given by the sophomores and juniors for the graduating seniors.

'LAS for the gum-chewing monstrosity. it is simply unspeakably hateful." This is the monitors' firm belief, and they punish law-ignoring students to the fullest extent. If one enters the study hall or library any period of the day, he finds near-silence. Monitors are responsible for maintaining this silence. A monitor's job is comparable to that of a member of the hall patrol. Mrs. Herbert supervises the monitors, and each member of the Executive Committee of the Student Council is in charge of monitors for one period of the day. 79 Thespians Row I-Marcia Coan, Dolores Froehlke, Connie Fealloclf, Nancy Lindeman, Caryl Ritchey, Verna Brolly, Deloris Griffith.

Women journalists!" ln Crandmother's day women in a man's business world were frowned upon: but journalism classes this year were dominated by the supposedly weaker sex. Twenty-four issues of the Crimson Comet were published by the classes who "learned by doing" how to publish a newspaper. A tour of the News-Dispatch gave the young journalists a better idea of how a commercial news- paper operates. ln one semester students. with the aid of Miss Klueh, studied the different types of storiesg the busi- ness of advertising and circulation: and the mechanics of publishing a paper.

The feeling that everyone should have his own opinion and be able to express it has been the motto of the Forum Club for years. This active organization is sponsored by Mr. Nicholson and meets the first and third Wednesdays at four o'clock.

Figures, numbers. and unknowns have been made so interesting that a club was formed this year by Mr. Ciffel and eager students to learn more about mathematics and its makers. This "baby of the family" was named "Slipsticks," adapted from its first project, learning how to use a slide rule. In zfddition to this group project, each member worked on an extra project.

To keep the library in perfect condition is the aim of all the hard-working Dahlites. The girls spend many hours trying to make the library look attractive. They arrange special displays for the cabinet on the north wall and for the charging desk. The theme of the fifteenth annual Book Week was "Make Friends with Books." The girls made a display centering around this theme. The duties of the librarians are to take attendance in the library, keep the shelves in proper order, and check out books. The girls enjoyed their share of parties, including potlucks, dusting parties, and going out for dinner together. The officers for the year were JoAnn Bullard, presidentg Luann Curry, vice-presi- dent: ,lean Rhoda. secretary-treasurer. The Club is under the capable leadership of Vliss Dahlberg.

Life is a gift that the humblest may boast of And one that the humblest may well make the most of. Get out and live it each hour of the day, Wear it and use it as much as you mayg Don't keep it in niches and corners and grooves, Y0u'll find that in service its beauty improves. "Life" is from the book A HEAP O' LIVIN' by Edgar A. Guestg copyright 1916 by The Reilly 8: Lee Co., Chicago. .Iej--' .
