Greenwood is fortunate in having this necessary qualification in Dr. Roy A. Ellis, Dr. H. A. Wise, and Dr. O. P. Trentham. These three harmoniously work together and coordinate their programs so that each may benefit from the other. For example, we have access to many facilities of SMS, including the cafeteria, library, health office, ballroom, college swimming pool, and stadium. In turn, the college uses Greenwood as a training center for prospective teachers.

Cynthia Chalmers points out a present trouble spot on the globe to the World History Class. An extensive study of world conditions is made during the year. ref The study of daily happenings is enhanced by the use of a current events newspaper in seventh grade history class. Here, we find Pam Plimmer and Steve Jones hard at work reading their papers. GRACE GARDNER, Supervisor of History, received a B.S. from SMS and an M.E. in Education from Missouri University.

Seventh Grade history is taught by Mrs. Botts, who also substitutes in other history classes.

Acting as the sponsor of the seventh grade and the Latin Club are among the many activities she enjoys. english and latin Sa ra Greenwood offers three Latin classes-Latin-English for the eighth grade, Latin l, and Caesar for advanced students. Latin is considered the basic language because many English words have been derived directly from it. ln addition to her Latin classes, Mrs. Rice teaches two English classes, seventh and ninth grade. Since Latin and English are so closely related, this makes an apt combination. Time and lots of work are necessary for Lacy Lines as she searches through many magazines for material to go in her Latin-English derivative notebook. students practice discipline of the written word jf Who is it? lT's Linda Wakeman being turned into an old woman with the help of Sandy Spradling and make-up, The many plays given in Speech class offer experience in the art of make-up.

Dr. Henderson is explaining the operation of a voltmeter which measures volts, ohms, and amperes to Physics students Linda Hall and Ken Walter. the governing laws of nature The sun and its influence upon the earth is only part of the valuable study presented in General Science. Summer students Karen Klann, Jeanne Simpson, and Anne Williams are learning about this relationship by means of a globe and a lamp. Science is more than a knowl- edge ot the formulated laws of nature. With this in mind, the Sci- ence Department at Greenwood, supervised by Dr. Henderson, intro- duces the more practical aspects of science in coniunction with the theo- retical side. Seventh Grade Science, General Science, Biology, Physics, and Chemistry are offered. Physics and Chemistry alternate every year and are open to Juniors ancl Seniors only. While only one science credit is needed to graduate, many students schedule for all of these interesting courses. departments present. . .

Mr. Bush, returned from a year's leave of absence, teaches basic mathematics, plane geometry, and beginning and ad- vanced algebra. Solid geometry and trigonometry are alternated yearly with advanced algebra. Math students learn how to apply their basic mathematics and algebra to everyday, practical needs. Another ad- vantage of mathematics often overlooked is its ability to teach clear and organized thinking. WM.

DOYLE KEMPER, Supervisor of Industrial Arts, re- ceived his B.S. at Southwest Missouri State College and his M.E. at Colorado State College. He teaches Industrial Arts at both Greenwood and SMS. Students in the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth grades are given an opportunity to put forth their creative abilities into an interesting hobby or a successful vocation. Industrial Arts is a practical, as well as a useful course, which is taught by Mr. Kemper. General Shop takes up a study of the varied fields of mechanical drawing, metal- work, woodwork, leathercraft, and plastics while Advanced Shop is a specialization in any one of the specific fields. Creativeness is also expressed in Art classes where students work with sketching, painting, copper, and other materials under the direction of Mrs. Thompson.

French and Spanish, taught by Dr. Payne and Mrs. Carter, are two of the foreign languages which are offered at Greenwood. Beautiful and cultural French, exciting and exuberant Spanish-they attracted many students who wished to gain a better knowledge of foreign countries and their customs.

Taking pictures and identifying them, drawing layouts, writing countless write- ups, headlines, captions, and typing- these are among the duties of the busy Under the Greenwood Tree staff which worked at top speed to meet deadlines. Even before school was out in the spring of 1957, the staff planned the theme and began putting their ideas into action. Miss Leola Spellman, advisor, worked closely with them to make this tremen- dous task a reality.

This year's Cub Standard staff was faced with the most difficult goal in its history. The Standard of last year received a one rating from the Missouri Interscholastic Press Association and fifty per cent of the best articles rated ones. The staff of '57-'58 worked even harder to try to achieve this same distinction. An idea originated only this year was the rating of each writer's article. Ot course there were the 8 a.m. re-write sessions where writers could receive help from their editor and the Cub Standard's advisor, Mrs. Stinson.

The show was under the direction of Miss Pat Elliot, and the hours upon hours spent in practice as- sured its success. Membership, which was limited, was by tryouts.

The French Club, better known to its members as Le Cercle Francais, was con- tinued this year by the second year stu- dents. The Club offered them a greater knowledge of the French language and cus- toms and gave them a closer insight into the lite and problems of our neighbors. Monthly meetings were held in the homes of the members where they enioyed films, speakers, and French games. Dr. Payne, the sponsor, directed the games. better understanding of our over-seas neighbors de nada was one ofthe pass- words that permitted students of espanol to enter their Span-ish Club meetings. If you ever hap- pened to eavesdrop on one of these meetings, perhaps you wondered why it was so quiet. The explanation is simple, not a word of English was spoken! Sponsored by Mrs. Carter, these bi-monthly meetings were spent playing Spanish games and learn- ing more of their customs. Aft- erwards, refreshments were served to the members. The club proved to them that learning is sometimes easier through games and fun than it is by textbooks alone.

During their various performances throughout the year, the Greenwood Drum Corps, made up of girls from the ninth through the twelfth grades, dis- played new hats, new bugles, and a new spirit. These factors along with a lot of hard work enabled them, for the first time, to place first in Class C division of the Drum Corps Clinic held annually at SMS. Marching activities included practices during August, participating in the All- America City night parade, and perform- ing at half-time of home and out-of-town football games. Money for the traditional football banquet was raised by a chili supper and a pie supper. A picnic in the spring for graduating seniors closed a busy but fun-filled year for members of the Drum Corps. Marching isn't the only thing the Drum Corps does!

Greenwood's football opener ended in a 3l-l2 vic- tory for the 'Jays over Cabool, while the next outing was the home opener against the Sarcoxie Bears, a 20-6 loss. Walnut Grove was an easy 27-0 victim, but Marionville's Comets handed the Blueiays their second loss, 3l-l3. Bolivar then fell in an offensive duel, 34-28. However, Gree-nfieId's 25-7 triumph and Miller's 20-14 victory rounded out the Greenwood schedule and caused them to end one under the .500 mark with three wins and four losses. This year Coach Collins was assisted by Charlie Cle- land, a former SMS star football center. Among this year's lettermen were seven seniors, seven juniors, three sophomores, and one freshman. Sophomore John Hammon led city scoring during the first seven games, although he was not ahead in the final tabulation be- cause other city teams played more games. J. H.

Speedy Collins, had another exciting year of basketball, Although their TO won and T4 lost record was not as good as hoped tor, the boys made some very impressive showings against some ot the district power- houses. The team participated in tour high school tournaments through the season: Clever, Marionville, in which they placed third, Class S Regional in Nixa, and their own twelfth annual Blue and Gold Tournament. Returning lettermen John Farrar, senior, and Eddie Matthews, iunior, formed the bulwark of the team along with six other lettermen who.were named at the end ot the season-two seniors, three iuniors, and one sopho- more. Bill Mauck served as student manager tor the cagers. The B team started the year ott with a bang by bringing their winning streak to 49 games, only to be broken by Rogersville. They ended the season with an 8-5 record. Players on the B team gained valuable ex- perience in playing techniques and gave support to the A team. Coach J. H.

Greenwood's 1957 tennis team achieved championship standing their second year of varsity competition. For several years Greenwood did not field a tennis team, but in the past season four players won tennis letters-Gary Lunsford, Ken Walter, Richard Fronabarger, and John Davidson. Greenwood defeated Parkview and Carthage twice each and divided two matches with Central for a five and one record in regular match play. Members of the tennis team also distinguished themselves in the City Night Tennis League and the Labor Day Tournament. Plans were to send a team to the State Tennis Tournament to be held in Columbia in the Spring of 1958. tennis and track dominate greenwood's spring sports calendar The core of the 1958 team is composed of these 1957 track let- termen.

Track has the thrill of individual competition coupled with a strong team desire for a decisive victory. Greenwood had 13 track lettermen in the 1957 season. Under the excellent assistance of Coach Collins, the track team captured all three of the Greenwood Invitational Meets and placed favorably in both the State Indoor and Outdoor contests. Bill Lane again was a great asset to the thinclads. Lane tied for first place in the 440-yard dash in the SMS Relays and raced to third place in the State Outdoor 1'OO-yard dash.

The crowning event of the year at Greenwood came May 23 when Honor Day was held in the SMS Ballroom. Fair Greenwood, Emmy Potter, and Sir Greenwood, Charles Ryer, elected by the student body, reigned over the traditional ceremony. To open the festivities, Fair and Sir Greenwood en- tered the ballroom, which had been decorated with spring flowers by the juniors, to the strains of To a Wild Rose. A parent of one of the seniors was then introduced and gave the main address, after which the actual bestowing of honors began. Sir Greenwood read the list of honors as Fair Greenwood handed an Ameri- Rs ali can Beauty Rose, a symbol of their accomplishments, to each worthy student. To be admitted to The Order of the Rose, a student must have attained one or more of the following achievements: S average or higher for the academic year, class president, student council member, letter in one or more sports, Carl A. Davis medal, Silver medal, departmental honors in some field of study, sophomore pilgrim, or receive some other outstanding honor. This beautiful ceremony brought honor to all Green- wood students who deserved it in a most impressive way. Sara Andalafte, Stephen Schwab, and Corinna Siceluff proudly pose with their roses following Honor Day ceremonies. After receiving his American Beauty Rose from Fair Greenwood, Gary Lunsford steps from the platform.

Linda Hall and Mike Hardie, representative of all seniors, end their high school careers as they begin an evening of fun at their last prom. Preceding the dance, a reception was given by the juniors in the home of Ann Louise Casey with upper- classmen, their dates, and faculty members with their husbands or wives as guests. From the reception they proceeded to Riverside Inn where an evening of danc- ing was enioyed. Following the dance, a coffee was held at Riverside to climax the evening's activities. The Prom, held during senior week, was one of Gre-envvood's much-looked-forward-to traditions. As al- ways, it made for that happy ending to high school days. 4-, valedictorian martha freeman Attaining the highest average in the class of 1958 was valedictorian Martha Freeman, with 10.67. This was the second highest rating a student has had at Greenwood since 1935. The most prominent of Martha's many extra- curricular activities were speech and iournal- ism, in which she reached many goals through diligent work and eagerness. Her present plans are to attend college at the University of Missouri where she will continue her interest in speech work. Two of the highest averages of any GHS students were earned by saluta- torian, Gary Lunsford, and valedictor- ian, Martha Freeman, in just this way- by studying faithfully. salufatorian gary lunsford This year's salutatorian, Gary Lunsford, followed Martha closely with a grade average of 10.58. He had one of the highest averages of any boy ever to attend Greenwood. Gary had many interests in addition to his classroom activities. Besides receiving trophies in tennis, he attained high ratings in the piano division of music festivals. Gary has made applications to Princeton, Duke, and Georgia School of Technology. While in college his maior will be physics.

Kindling the enthusiasm for the Big Day was the bonfire and pep rally the evening before. Homecoming marked the end of Green- wood's football season with a closely fought game against Miller. Further witness to the close of the season was the entry of winter weather which left the audience shivering while warmly applaud- ing the crowning of the Homecoming Queen, Linda Hall, by student body president, Barney Whitlock. Sandy Spradling and Sara Elkins served as her attendants. Evening festivities, again bringing alumni and students together, began with the dance to the music of The Meltones. The queen and her at- tendants were presented once more during inter- mission, distinguished alumni were introduced, and the reception was held. The Alumni Associa- tion also met and elected Clyde H. Bud Martin to succeed John Rich as president. So, with the last strains of music the curtain came down on a memorable Greenwood pageant. l l l 4 -'fi Royalty with escorts, alums, students, and faculty meet together at the re- ception held during the dance intermission.
