The Year Book of MARIETTA HIGH SCHOOL Marietta, Georgia Bill Dowda, Editor VOLUME TWENTY-SIX NINETEEN HUNDRED FORTY-TWO Judge J. H. Hawkins DEDICATIOI • • In gratitude for the many fine works and deeds that he has done for us, we, the members of the OLYMPIAN staff, dedicate our issue of the yearbook as a token of our gratitude. Judge J. Harold Hawkins has served us, the students, for a long time and we hope this OLYMPIAN will do his name justice. FOREWORD In this, the OLYMPIAN of 1942, we have tried to perpetuate in the minds of the students by this book their lives, activities, and accomplish- ments. Out of this school the boys and girls will go into a troubled world, but with them we hope they carry the memories of the four happiest years of their life. The OLYMPIAN staff has tried to bring you more enjoyment from your yearbook by trying many things new. We hope that in the troubled years to come you can look back to your school life and thereby lift some of the heavy burden of life from your back. Deal- Old Marietta High Shuler Antley C. A. Keith Judge J. H. Hawkins, Dr. S. L. Rambo, Mr. G. H. Northcutt, Mr. Max Pittard, Mr. Ewell Hope, and Dr. Ralph Fowler. • • • ADMIilSTRATlOl Those who guide us on our way, and try to teach us what is right, and help us in every way possible is the Board of Education. It is composed of six members: Judge J. Harold Hawkins, president; Dr. Sam L. Ram bo, vice- president; Mr. Guy H. Northcutt, Mr. Max Pittard, Mr. Ewell Hope, and Dr. Ralph Fowler. The Board members are elected by the City Council, and the necessary requirements are that the member must be a citizen of Marietta, Georgia, and a free holder. The length of term of office is six years, with two members being elected every two years. The meetings are usually held on the second Thursday of each month ; however, the president is vested with the authority to call special meetings. The Board handles maintenance of buildings, finances, prescribes courses, and has complete control over faculty. On this page we also wish to pay tribute to Mr. C. A. Keith and Mr. Shuler Antley who guide and direct us on our pleasant journey through school. THE RECREATIOi OTER The Recreation Center plays an important part in the life of every student of Marietta High as well as in the lives of evei-y Mariettan. Most of the school socials are held in its spacious halls. Also such activities as the Senior play, the operettas, boxing matches, and such things for the community welfare as the President ' s Ball. As administrator over this huge project, Mr. Bishop more than fills the job adequately. Ever since its opening he has kept constantly on the job. Serve the people first, might well be his motto. He keeps all the equipment re- paired, and replaces all faulty equipment that might impair the efficiency of the gym. The students of M. H. S. have their physical ed classes in the center often. They have their tea dances there. They come there when they feel the need of any physical recreation. Truly, the Brumby Recreation Center is one of the most important things that ever hap- pened to the people of Marietta. Students in front of the gym at recess.

How much that word does mean to the pupils who, having left gram- mar school, have come to the height of their ambitions. The life of a Freshman is a hard life because the Freshmen have to bow down to the upper classmen, play nurse-maid to rocks on the ball field; and worst of all they have to buy everything from a study hall book to an elevator ticket for typ- Warren Quarles. president, talks over plans for the following years with Jane Webb, Mildred Black, and Annie L.

The Freshmen are truly made to walk the chalk-line here at M.H.S. But without the Freshmen, school wouldn ' t be school. They mean the world to us; for it is they who restore in us, the upper classman, all that vitality and ambition that we once knew when we were Freshmen. They have come to the school filled with ambitions for their future life, they have an ideal, they are working for their goal. We are proud of you, Freshmen. Always stay as loyal, kind, and considerate as you are now. Just try to be as good a Sophomore as you have been a Freshman, and you will certainly attain the goal for which you are working. Miss Freshman Class Carolyn Little Bully Fields. Jean Gamble, and Wayne Gamble show President Scrappy Edwards how to relax. SOPH Yes, the sophomores are rising in the world, and they are beginning to take their true places in the whirl of school. They have acquired a cock} strut, their own sys- tem of sign language, can accurately foretell the day of tests, and introduce slang in- to our daily life, which is new. Joe Abbott.

They furnish many valuable members to the athletic squad, many write con- tributions for the Pitchfork, and many came to our Junior-Senior dance. The Sophomore is eager and willing, and is due our praise for his work. Truly the Sopho- more has his place in the sun (any resemblance to rising sun is purely coincidental).

His well-informed view of life, his energy, and his training make him as essential as a vital cog. Not too noticeable, but without which the well-organized machine of school life would not run. We Seniors wish the Juniors all the luck in the world next year and we feel safe in leaving our places to them. We are sure that they will maintain the school tradition and honor. Miss Junior Class Betty Baskin ttHKHtti 15 m m As we, the Seniors, take our last faltering steps toward that long awaited day, we feel a mixture of emotion. Half of great happiness of having success- fully completed four years of hard work, and half of sadness for having to leave all the joy we have had here and all of our friends. We only notice part of having ourselves fussed over by nervous mothers and envious underclass- men who seem to wish they were in our places. It doesn ' t seem so many hours ago that we first toddled into our Freshman classroom, timid and afraid, just as if we were embarking on some great ad- venture. And this is just what our high school career turned out to be — an adventure of fun and joy, work and play, and sometimes a little sadness. But in our Sophomore year we began to feel that we were being noticed, and began to get a definite swagger in our walk. We struggled over algebra, President Joe Cell Word relaxes beside Martha Dickson and Mary E. Gamble. • i 16 Miss Senior Class Charlotte Coyle Latin, and history. We decided our future course of study; whether it would be Classical, Scientific, or Commercial. We played and we worked. The Brum- by Recreation Center was beginning to play a big pai ' t in our school life. We thought that we were definitely in the know by the time we became Juniors. We had begun to edit (well, maybe just help out) the high school publications. We had a script dance to raise money for the Junior-Senior Banquet. We took a trip to Athens towards the end of the year and had a wonderful time. Then as a final stroke the Junior-Senior Banquet and dance filled all our dreams and filled our hearts with happiness. Then that final, fateful year. We have been in such a mad scramble that we remember nothing but fun and happiness. The year passed by like a shot, and now we here find ourselves in caps and gowns almost departed from our high school life forever. We thrill as the first notes of the processional starts and we start our last mile. 17 Frances Adams Carolyn Addison Entered ' 41; Scientific Course; Glee Club ' 41; Dramatics Club ' 42; Senior Home Ee.

Joe Cell Word 31 Flf And to the Republic for which it Stands ... Ii1 OUR Mr. Connaly looks over Fred ' s work. Our teachers in high school have more effect on molding our minds than any other single group. If one is lucky enough to be a graduate of Marietta High School, he may be sure that it will not be the teachers ' fault if he fails. We hope the following account pleases them. The girls of the school have been well- schooled in home economics by a profusion of teachers. The apprentice teachers, of which we have had six this year, have been Mr. McCormack helps out the girls in Chemistry. Miss McGarity and Mrs. Harris plan an ideal home life. ' taught and have been teachers at the same time. The heads of the department of home economics are Miss Janet .icGarity and Mrs. Wayne Harris. Both Miss McGarity and Mrs. Harris received their degrees from the Uni- versity of Georgia. In languages we have received very able instruction in Latin from Mrs. Aikman, who procured her B. A. and M. A. degrees from the University of South Mrs. Aikman and Miss AUaben are great buddies even though they don ' t speak the same language. 34 FACULTY Carolina. In popular languages we have been taught French and Spanish (which are avail- able to Juniors and Seniors) by Miss Sarah Allaben. She received her B. A. degree at G. S. C. W. and her M. A. degree at Duke University. Mr. Francis Bonner and Mr. J. R. Callison, our English instructors, seem to have a store- house of English literature, all the way from Shakespeare to O ' Neil. They say even if we can ' t write we can at least learn about those who were and are able to write. Mr. Bonner comes from the University of Alabama, and Mr. Callison from the University of South Carolina. Miss Sessions shows where to slap the Jap. Miss Smith waves a fond farewell to Marietta High. Mrs. Tipton must be looking at bugs, microbes, or- something. Mr. Bonner and Mr. Callison strive to increase their vocabulary. • • 35 Mr. Tipton discusses ads for the Olympian with Kemp. Coach Hollis gazes on in disgusted silence. Mr. Antley and Mrs. Patterson work hard filling out report cards. In the commercial courses, typing, short hand, business arithmetic, and bookkeeping. Miss Mary Ellen Smith and Miss Lou Ella Darden hold unwavering power. They han- dle all the problems of our business courses with thorough ease and efficiency, like big business. Miss Smith is from Georgia State Teachers College, and Miss Darden is from West Tennessee State Teachers College. Today history is being made all over the world and here at M.H.S. we have Mr. M. C. McMillan of the University of Alabama, and Miss Mildred Session of Wesleyan to help us keep up with it and learn about that which has already been made. Mr. R. A. Tipton through his untiring efforts has finally after four years, for some of us Seniors, drummed some algebra and Mr. Covington and the boys design a new model. 36 Mr. Smith helps out a bewildered Freshman. geometry into our heads. For the present Freshmen and Sophomores, we have Mr. Smith, who has under his control their basic algebra. Mr. Tipton is from the University of Alabama, and Mr. Smith hails from Mercer University. Chemistry and physic would have been an almost unsurmountable difficulty had it not been for the energy of our teacher Mr. Ralph Conally. Mr. Conally was especially well qualified with a B.A. and M.A. degree from the University of Georgia and with a B.S. from the University of Chicago. With our eyes turned to the nature life about us, we are shown how to recognize plants and disect frogs by Mrs. R. A. Tipton. Mrs. Tipton has a B.S. Degree from G.S.C.W. Coach Jody Hollis, with what was said to be one of the most successful football teams M.H.S. has produced has worke d untiringly on our Physical Ed. program for the betterment of the body. He has also done his utmost to help the country by his ever ready helpful sugges-. tions in drill. His courses vary, including swimming, golf, calesthenics, basketball, tennis, archery, and many others. He is truly a man of all sports. And last, but by no means least, we come to Mr. E. D. Covington, the busiest man at M.H.S. Not only does Mr. Covington have woodwork shop and Mechanical drawing, but he is also the guiding benefactor in the course of occupational guidance. In shop one is taught more than carpentering, but the use of the hands is the prime purpose. In a kind of plodding haste, he says all work should be done, with nothing impossible. Occupational guidance is probably the most important course in Marietta High for students not going to college. This course finds out your best abilities and a place for you in the business world. This prevents trying to fit a square peg in a round hole. Miss Smith and Miss Darden gaze in amazement as they type ten words a minute. 37 FEATURES One Nation, Indivisable . . . miss n).H.s. p inR.m.H.s.

Yes, our camera has chosen Fred Legg and Edith Crowe as M. H. S. ' s most typical couple and will follow them through the night. Fred and Tut enter the Recreation Center where the dance is being held. The Valentine ' s Ball is strictly informal. A basketball game al- ways precedes it. Its purpose is to elect a Valen- tine Queen and have fun. The queen will be chosen from Caroline Little, Mary Mayes, Betty Baskin, and Charlotte Coyle. Fred and Tut cast their votes for their choice while Betty Baskin gives us a horse laugh. 44 GOES TO . . . The couples swing out during a nobreak. The stags glower from the sidelines. Mr. Callison counts while Mr. Bonner guards their money with his sword. Ye ole ed presents the new queen, Mary Mayes. 45 . . . A PARTY Though camera shy, we catch our Queen and Clyde Annadale leading the Grand March. After this the underclassmen show us how it ' s done. Everyone sighs as the universal fav- orite Star Dust is played. Our modest camera catches Fred just after the or-uh osculation. 46 The cheerleaders, Ward, Underwood, Baskin, Coyle, Allgood, give those Sen- iors who have played their last for M. H. S. a rousing cheer, at their an- nual banquet. The Underclassmen shiver and shake in the cold of a winter day. At last, that all-important hunkie man arrives. Baskin, Underwood, Coyle, Ward, and Allgood hobnob with the Decatur cheer- leaders at that fateful Decatur game. Watch that snowball. Marietta ' s first and last big snow of the year. 47 HTHITIES With Liberty and Justice . . . Bill Dowda Editor-in-Chief THE OLYMPIAN As we finish our school year, we of the OLYMPIAN look around and take stock of what we have done. Our aim above all things was to edit a book which would please you students and keep forever the memory of this year of 1942. Many new things have been added in hope of having a better Olympian. The splendid coopera- tion of the staff and faculty advisers have helped to bring the OLYMPIAN to a close. The dummy was completed early in the summer and was changed from time to time — for the better, we hope. The write-ups were soon incoming from the sports editors, Marvene Steele and Mike Webb, and David Rambo, Ben Harbin, Bob Lively, Bobby Willingham, Glenn D. Jordan, the business man- agers kept the money rolling in; while Arthur Waite supervised photography, and Marthalyn Dickson and Davis Walker got out their easels and began drawing their pictures. The whole staff gave splendid cooperation. Bus. Mgr. — David Rambo, Ben Hai ' bin, Bob Willingham. Bobby Lively, Glenn D. Jordan. Adv. Mgr. — Kemp Mabry, Ann Hawkins, Mary Jane Ward. Bob Mozley.

The staff is organized around the Editor-in-Chief, who supervises all work, sees that copy is carried to the printer, proof-reads copy, makes up dummy, and finally checks the finished product. The job of the business manager is to get ads for the publication. He is assisted by an advertising staff. The news editors, literary editors, feature editors, and alumni editors make up a large of the staff and equally as important to a good paper as the other editors.

LUCKY 13 As vacation time draws near, every- one looks toward the Lucky 13 club to find out who will be the lucky girls to be chosen as its members for next year. This club is a purely social one, and exists mainly for fun and happiness. This is a tradition with the club. The future members and sponsors may look forward to the dances and socials and club meetings as those of the past have. And knowing the Lucky 13 I am sure that they won ' t be disappointed. The new (old now) members were informed way back in ' 41. That started the social season and it has been going in high gear ever since. The first big party was the Thanksgiving Dance fol- lowed by a breakfast and many social meetings. Later in the year they gave their annual girl break dance and more fun than anything was had by all. The only regular faculty adviser this year has been Miss McGarity. Mr. Con- naly and Mr. McCormack both left school before the end of the year.

TRI-HI-Y Tri-Hi-Y is a club which undertakes to up- hold those Christian ideals set forth in the Bible. It is truly a Christian club and it will always maintain those characteristics. This year has been quite an eventful one in the history of the Tri-Hi-Y at Marietta High School. It has, with the help and cooperation of the Hi-Y, successfully launched many cam- paigns and study courses. Among them is the Bible Study Course which was given the entire school. Each week a capable speaker was asked to give a lesson on Freedom; giving the dif- ferent interpretations of Freedom. Then after the seven speakers had given these lessons, the student body was given an examination to de- termine their learnings. The course proved very successful. Several Tri-Hi-Y members attended the state convention in Atlanta in February, thus identi- fying our club with the finest in the state. Our club has raised its standards much this year by rating higher in the State of Georgia. To do this we must undertake more Christian campaigns. And it seems we are gradually nearing the top. President Mary Jane Ward soothes her parched throat while Polly McKinney, Marthalyn Dickson and Mary Gamble look on. «V :■ : ..-i SBe- . 53 ' ' rtf Joe Abbott, Joe Bar- nett, Alan Cairnes, Red Suhr.

HI-Y CLUB As we look all about us we see the effects and results of Hi-Y work manifesting itself in many ways, and all of these changes are for the better. Because of the interest shown by the boys, the Hi-Y was reorganized, new from top to bottom. The aims are still the same, however, for they have affirmed a pledge to Christianity, and Democracy. They do this because they realize a debt toward their community and desire to pay the price of civic citizenship. The club was revitalized this year under Mr. E. D. Covington. The watchword of it might well be Accomplishment. The club is not a social organization wth no purpose at heart. Many campaigns for the betterment of the school were started and were received and cooperated with admirably by the student body. Together with the Tri-Hi-Y they sponsored a Bible Study Course, but this year it included the whole student body and faculty. The eagerness and sincerity of the boys is sute to bring good results for our school. The excellent standard of character, spiritual and mental, and of sportsmanship makes it an im- portant phase in our school life. Kemp Mabry, president, C. L. Mauldin, Olin Feagin, Glenn Jordan, Fred Bentley talk over the results of a new campaign. 54 p. S. CLUB The P. S. Club gathers within its folds fourteen of the most jolly and fun-loving girls of the Junior and Senior classes of Marietta High School. The members, faculty advisers, and sponsors are elected by those who didn ' t leave school the year before. It is a social cli b whose purpose is to cast happiness and jovialty over our school, and to create and maintain school spirit in the school by taking part in all school activities and sponsoring entertainment of its own. The meetings are held semi-monthly at one of the member ' s homes. Due to the national emergency all the club ' s larger parties were cancelled; however, all activities were not curtailed. Many smaller parties were given, which everyone seemed to like better. The most enjoyable, in the boys ' and girls ' opinion, was the hay-ride. The club also plans to have its annual breakfast after the Senior Dance on June 15. The club has had a marked effect on our school life, and will probably have the same influence in the future. The faculty advisers certainly have done their part and have added much to the club by their youthful spirit.

The Girls ' Glee Club of Marietta High, composed of forty-two voices, is the fruit of the beginning Glee Club last year. Miss Ogden selected the girls with voices that would most perfectly fit together and there- fore have a superior group. The Girls ' Glee Club has worked extra hard this past year, and they are to be compli- mented on their splendid work. The girls entered the Fifth District contest, which met in Atlanta, and they rated A-1. which is excellent or superior. They were then eligible for the state contest, which met in Milledge- ville, Georgia. There the girls made the rating of A-1, which is superior. The girls presented this year the first operetta put on by the high school Glee Club. The name of the operetta was The Feast of the Little Lanterns. Miss Ogden has worked especially hard with this group to make them the best. She has been assisted at the piano by Mary E. Gamble. Miss Ogden could not have done so well without the splendid cooperation of the girls. Stella Barber-, Mary Gamble, Betty Jo Crum- rine, Ann Thomas, and Charlotte Coyle take up riding bicycles as the gas rationing starts. GLEE CLUB 56 ORCHESTRA Listen ! Yes, it really is good old boogie-woogie coining out of our auditorium. Yes, Jack Brumby is still beating it out on those drums of his, making us pat our feet and go through all sorts of bodily contortions while keeping up with that low-down swing. It is rather hard for the pupils to do any work, especially when the orchestra breaks down and has a jam session. Under the guidance of the director, Jimmy Hardeman, they practice three times a week and play twice in chapel on Tuesdays and Thursdays for the amusement of the students. Th e line-up of the band is this: Director, Jimmy Hardeman, plays alto saxophone; J. C. Jones, tenor saxophone; Frank Dosser, the first trumpet; Cammie Mclntyre, the second trumpet; Ray Reece, the second trumpet; Ann Hawkins, the piano; and Jack Brumby, the drums. This is an all-star cast. Every once in a while we get a rare treat from Jimmy and a departure from popular music, for he sometimes treats us with a classical piece on the violin. On the whole, however, the main part of the orchestra ' s repatoire includes popular pieces. They play at many of the school dances and were especially appreciated at the OLYMPIAN ' s Valen- tine Ball. Frank Dosser, Jack Brumby, Ann Hawkins, J. Jones, and Jimmy Hardeman have a jam session.

Yes, the underclassmen are really showing how its done, under direction of Mrs. Harris and Miss McGarity. They are really setting the pace and examples for Marietta girls that will last for years to come. They are those peppy and vivacious Sophomores and Freshmen. The girls have taken upon themselves to learn the finer things of life around the home such as: color harmony, home planning, child care, sewing, cooking, selection of clothes and other desirable qualities that make a fine, well- rounded, and popular girl. They have also tried to bring better manners to our student body, because they put on such a program in chapel. It was sort of a play with the setting as a restaurant. Two couples come in, one depicted the wrong way of doing things, the other couple showed the right way used by those of culture. The play was a big success. J.

SEISIOR HOME EC Lucy Mae Cogburn explains to Ann Hawkins, Bootsie Maddox and David Dossei- how her biscuits help out in the war effort. There comes a time in every young girl ' s life when she begins to think of preparing for a housewife ' s posi- tion when she leaves school. This occurs especially during the early spring months of their senior year. This year, however, each girl is trying to become a specialist as well as an individualist. They all have a wide range of interest and the topics are taken up one by one. These are discussed and the problems are ironed out. To help them in their home planning, guest speak- ers are often called in and discuss the girls ' problems. But besides trying to find out how to make the home really home, sweet home, ' they are taking up a new activity: That of personal appearance and personality, in general, personal improvement. This pride that they take in making themselves attractive is well justified after all their hard work and all their good results. The club is under direction of Miss Janet McGarity and Mrs. Dorothy Harris. The program is prepared by committee appointed by President and often they all get gether and whip up seme refreshments.

For the members of this club have done some- thing outstanding. They must have either led a varsity team down the road to glory by their athletic support or by yelling for the team and keeping up the school spirit. The letter M not only stands for Mari- etta; but for sportsmanship, ability, fair play, and cooperation. The members of this club have a special privilege too; that is, to attend any ban- quet or celebration held in honor of some team, even if he isn ' t out for that sport. Besides collecting money for the Olym- pian the M Club gives a social every year. A hayride is planned for this year. This year the M Club brought from Georgia University one of the coaches, a football player, and a film of the Orange Bowl game. the club has been studying the life of great athletes, and trying to find their formula for suc- follow it in their High School careers. ' Club is saving money to buy a trophy case for the school. If not enough money is raised this intend to carry on next and leave something to perpetuate itself in the minds of the students.

Yes, that candid camera bug has been loosed on Marietta High again. Nothing is sacred to him, and you ' re subject to an expose by his ever-ready camera. Mr. Tipton started the Photography Club again this year, and the results have been amazing. First the club took up the cost of lenses of cameras. It was decided that the candid camera was least expensive to buy and to operate. It wasn ' t long before the Olympian needed some snaps and the Photography Club pitched in and helped out. To urge the students on, an Olympian was offered as the prize for the best snapshot of school life. The snaps soon came pouring in and the Olympian staff was very happy for this splendid coopera- tion. Up to the time of this write-up no winner had yet been picked. Carrying on Frank Dosser gave an explanation of the art of developing pictures at one of the club meetings. Soon after this he set up a miniature dark room in his house and invited the club members to his house to learn the process of developing. From time to time pictures taken by students were shown in class and if there were any faults, the members tried to find out what was wrong and correct the error for the next picture. Its importance will undoubtedly increase as school life goes on. Davis Walkei . president, jokes with Bill Dowda, Mary Meech, and Frank Dosser. Harold Austin, James Underwood, Jack Davis, Bill Dowda.

The purpose of the club is to perpetuate what seems to us Americans a fast dying language. This involves all the slang, idiomatic expressions and so on. Again America, yes, the America of our own home town, welcomes for an immigrant not a foreign person but a foreign language. Les officiers, Alton Brown, O. B. Feagin, Margaret Hill, and le president, Kemp Mabry. At meeting all questions, business, discus- sions, and minutes of the club are done in French. This gives its members a famliarity with the French language. The programs of the club consist in poems read in French, plays given in French, and short stories written and read in French. The members also study the history of the French language, its peoples, religions, and have mod- ern day customs connect with old French for- mal itv. .-. Edna Eaton. Ernt st Biown.

When Miss Allaben got some names of people for the Spanish pupils to carry on correspondence with she had a few left over. Some of the members of the French Club took the left over names and corresponded with the peoples. ' The French Club says to everyone, Je vous aime. 62 DRAMATICS CLUB And that ' s that. Period. And so ends our senior play. The club under the direction of our own Mr. Bonner completes another performance. The club was organized again this year and sponsored many plays. With more new equipment and make-up the plays looked more real- istic than ever. A one-act play called The Gent was given in chapel in which Midford Broadwell and C. L. Mauldin starred. The plot of the play briefly was that of a gentleman crook catching a thief already in the house he intends to rob. By pretending to be the owner he scares the other thief off and gets the loot. They practiced many other plays and were prepared to give The Valiant at the district meet when it was called off. A lot of new equipment will be bought from money made in the senior play held in the Recreation Center on May 29. The play is a slapstick comedy. C. L. Mauldin, Barbara Abercrombie, Woo(2) Collins, Mike Webb, June Blair, Martha Rakestraw, and Bill Dowda hold the leading roles. Some of the money will also go to the senior dance, so the Dramatics Club serves a dual purpose in all fields of enjoyment. C. L. Mauldin. President, J. C. Jones.

Last year Miss Ogden had a mixed glee club, but the boys claimed that they got so good that she had to separate them from the girls so they wouldn ' t hurt the girls ' feelings when they sang beside them. The Boys ' Glee Club has done some wonderful work this despite the loss of some of the club ' s key voices from last year. They are doing a fine work and are promoting a noticeable change to good around M,H,S, ' s campus. They practice three times a week and all the students en,ioy hearing them sing as we go to our physical ed classes. Good work, Boys! 64 FIRST AID CLUB Naturally as all eyes are turned toward the war situation we of Marietta High School should look about for something to do to help the national defense program. The students around M.H.S. have found it. Their greatest opportunity lies in the first aid club. This club offers them an opportunity to learn what to do in case of an emergency, whether it be an air raid, an automobile accident, or perhaps just some schoolmate who has been injured on the playground. This club, under the able eye of Coach Jody Hollis, has followed almost the same course as prescribed by the Red Cross. If this community is ever in need of help we are sure that these first aiders will be ready to lend their hand.

I doubt if there is one of us who doesn ' t present a good argument, but most of us don ' t know how to bring out the best points for our side of the question. In this club not only do you learn how to buffet the baffoon who ' s arguing with you, but you also learn something which is, in the eye of the public, more import- ant. That is public speaking, or orato ry in its finer phases. In this club by merely being on the program you are helping to train your voice and gain the posture, poise, and self confidence which are most essential when one desires to succeed in this business world where you must put your best face forward. The continuance of this club certainly seems a necessity to our students. The Olympian Photographer catches President J. C. Jones, Lucia Seifrit, W. L. Evans, C. L. Mauldin in an off moment.

SHORTHAND CLUB To those who are not going to college, this club offers an opportunity to become acquainted with their profession or business they are going to follow when they leave high school. It gives the takers of the commercial subjects a chance to get acquainted with the customs, habits, and demands of the modern business world and how they must be faced.

This includes: chances for promotion, advantages, disadvantages, re- quirements, and possibilities of getting a job, and how to look for a good job.

AUDUBON CLUB President GLENN Davis Jordan Vice-President Dan Worley Secreta ry Talmadge Hadaway Treasurer Happy McNeel - Under the direction of Mrs. R. A. Tipton the Audubon Club has really been a success this year. The club was named after the greatest bird lover, bird authority, and drawer of birds the world has ever known — Audubon. The aim of the club is to perpetuate a better understanding of living things and of their beauty in this mad world of today. The club has been very active in helping the members recognize different species of birds. They bought some birds (dead and stuffed, of course), and immediately set about learning their color, their habits, their foods, the color of their eggs, shape of their nests, and their usual habits. At one time during the year a nature study scout was presented in chapel. He could imitate various types of birds, in fact, he could imitate many not found in Georgia. It was a very interesting program. It is the plan of the club to add more stuffed birds to their collection, which will make a varied and interesting display. This club, by teaching a better understanding of our feathered friends, will perhaps prevent or help prevent the extinction of many birds which would follow their ancestors to the grave. 69 STUDENT GOVERMENT The Student Government was started not as a governing body but merely as a body to suggest what was right to the students, and let their conscience be their guide. At the first of the year a constitu- tion was drawn up and put up before the student body as a whole and almost unanimously accepted. Then the student government went to work. Its first act was to sponsor an honesty campaign which is still go- ing on. The plan was to place pencils in any convenient place and let the stu- dent put the money in the box when he got a pencil. He was on his honor to pay for it, that was all. Next they drew a traffic line down the middle of the hall and relieved the congestion in the hall almost entirely. For the past six months they have been sponsoring a defense bond and stamp sale, which, by the way, has been very successful. A safe has been bought to keep the money in. All in all they have been very active in helping the student in his daily life. Kemp Mabry, president, talks over plans for the de- fense stamp sale with Sonny Jervey, Frances Harris, and Betty Jo Crumrine. Seniors : Mary Jane Ward, Marthalyn Dickson, C. L. Mauldin.

QUILL AND SCROLL CLUB From the records of the past we see that the Quill and Scroll Club has done much fine work in the field of journalism. The object of the programs was to give the members a valuable knowledge of the things that go into making a successful publication. The Club has had many guest speakers to tell the members what to do and what not to do, and explain the many wrong impressions that we have about our modern newspapei-men. All this has been carried on under the successful guidance of Mrs. Aikman. We of the OLYMPIAN staff salute you who have attained the honor of being accepted for the national association. Also, we salute you new members, and hope there will be many more like you.

For the first time a team wearing the White and Blue of Marietta High School finished the season on top of the heap in the N. G. I. C. The Blue Devils closed the season with five wins and one loss within the Conference. This was only good enough for a three-way tie for first place, Decatur and Russell being the other two claimants. On Monday night, November 26, a committee, composed of one representative from each school, selected Russell High School of College Park as the 1941 N. G. I. C. Champion. At this same meeting a mythical squad of all-N. G. I. C. gridders was selected and Billy McBrayer, swivel-hipped left-halfback, together with big Benny Seine, who held down a majority of the right side of the Blue Devil line, represented Marietta. All members of this eleven received gold footballs. We opened the campaign with a 26-0 win over Richardson High School, September 26, at Northcutt Stadium, thereby avenging our 6-0 defeat at their hands a year ago. After only one month of practice Coaches Hollis, Gibson, and Smith presented a light blitzkrieg club that found Richardson easy to handle. Sc oring four touchdowns and adding two extra points, the Blue Devils unwrapped the 1941 turf season in fine style. Joe Hamby and Buddy Sanger were the Mariettans that looked best that night. Pace, Richardson guard, was the visitors ' star. Our next game was an off-game. Off in more ways than one. We played Cedartown at Cedartown on October 3; and a slightly overconfident Blue Devil squad let a big, fast Cedartown bunch get an 18-0 lead in the opening period that was never overcome. Marietta settled down after this devastating first quarter and matched point for point with the Spaulding County lads, but when the whistle blew at the end of sixty hectic minutes, the scoreboard read : Cedartown 31, Marietta 13. This game had good and bad effects on us. It knocked out all overconfidence, and it showed that we could take it as well as dish it out. Any team that was as beaten and as surprised in the first quarter as Marietta and that came back to fight on even terms for the remaining three periods certainly deserves credit for a fighting spirit.

After that Cedartown nightmare, the Blue Devils returned to the home front to encounter the Spiders of Griffin High School. Marietta entered the game as favorite by virtue of their 40-8 victory in 1940, but the smoke had cleared, the scoreboard showed the Blue Devils to be on the short end of a 14-6 tally. Eight plays after the opening kick-off, Sanger, on a reverse from Gregory, broke the scoring ice. The try for extra point was blocked and Marietta led, 6-0. Following this seemingly easy touchdown, we suf- fered an awful let down. Walker, Griffin half-back, lugged the leather from his 45 to the very shadow of the M. H. S. goal. Hollis ' Thin Blue Line stopped the attack cold for three downs, but on the fourth, Jenkins pushed over from the 4-yard line. Another touchdown just before the half and both extra points, gave them the game, 14-6. Marietta ' s Billy McBrayer made the longest, prettiest run of the game when he twisted from his goal to the Spider 45 before being stopped by the last man. One Mr. Pompey Gregory battered the West Fulton High School line to shreds and personally scored all of Marietta ' s 13 points in the last half of the Blue Devil-Owl game that was played in Northcutt Stadium on October 18. The score in this, the most exciting contest of the season, was 13-6 for the Devils. Coming into the second half six points behind. Marietta duplicated these six when Gregory plunged Saine.

It waa again Gregory. This time he scored from inside the one-yard line and he added the extra point. The Blue Devil line opened huge holes for Gregory and the other bucks and it deserves all the credit possible. Davis Walker aided the Marietta cause no little by putting the ball on the three-yard stripe on the first scoring march and carrying a pass down to the Owl seven in that final drive. We went North Friday, October 24, and lost a heart-breaking contest to our blood rival, Carters- ville. The final score stood 13-6, but that doesn ' t give a full picture. Half-time found the teams dead-locked, 6-6, the timer ' s gun having stopped a Blue Devil scoring threat only 12 inches from pay dirt. Play rocked along on even terms for 25 minutes in the final quarter, but at that time Doug Fisher, Purple Hur- ricane satalite, faded back from the Marietta 40 with 30 yards to go and last down. Instead of kicking he dropped a perfect pass to Latimer in the flat, an Mr. Latimer went all the way to a touchdown and victory. The extra point closed the scoring: Marietta 6, Cartersville 13. Benny Seine, Billy McBrayer, and David Kyle were the shining lights of the Marietta squad. Fish- er and Latimer led the Purple ' s attack. The Catamounts from Dalton High School came to Marietta for a contest on Friday, October 31, Come on! Block that man! Joe Cell stopped a foot short of pay dirt. Managers Cairnes and Abbott look out for casualties. 77 and the Blue Devils avenged the 14-12 beating handed to them by this team in 1940 when they trampled over a helpless Catamount squad, 32-0. Gregory carried the ball over from the one-yard mark on the first play of the second quarter after a 15- yard penalty had placed the pigskin there. These six, together with the point after touchdown, constituted all the scoring of the first half. The mighty Blue Devil line came to life in the final two frames and pushed the Dalton forward wall all over the field. Joe Hamby and J. C. McBrayer scores around end. Jones, tackle and end respectively, both scored on blocked punts and Billy McBrayer cut off right tsckle for 70 yards late in the game. This was the longest and prettiest play of the night. We turned Armistice Day into a field day by smothering the Canton Greenies, 25-6, on Tuesday afternoon, November 11. It was the power of Gregory and the passes of McBrayer that sent the Greenies home in defeat. Mari- etta scored after five minutes of the first quarter and was never in trouble. The Blue Devils added one score in the second frame and two in the last to make the final total 25. Canton scored only once against a Marietta squad composed of second Let ' s hit them again gang!

We added the fifth victory to our string on Friday, November 14, as we romped over Newnan. 31-0. This was the third consecutive victory for Mollis ' Boys. Three touchdowns in the first frame and another in the second gave Marietta a 25-0 lead at half-time. The varsity played just a short while in the second half and the Blue Devils added only six points to their score. These came in the third quarter. Davis Walker scored the first two touchdowns of his career in this game and Captain Joe Cell Word carried the leather across on his initial trip during the game. We stretched our winning streak to four straight, Thursday, November 20, by downing the Green Hornets of Hapeville, 14-0, in what proved to be more of a mud battle than a foot- ball game. The Blue Devils scored once before the game was two minutes old, and then came back on the second play of the Imal half to tally again. Both scoring plays were spectacular. Davis Walker went 25 yards for the first and Scrappy Edwards cut through tackle for 62 yards and the last touchdown. Pompey Gregory ran both of the extra points over. Our season would have been much more pleasant could we but have ended it here, for on Thanksgiving Day we journeyed down to Decatur for an engagement with Smokey Joe Martin ' s Mighty Bull- dogs. Decatur, held to 12 points in the first half, tallied one score in the third quarter and two more in the final stanza to send the Blue Devils home on the short end of a 31-0 score. Newport Donald, Benny Seine, and Scrappy Ed- wards looked good even in defeat. Decatur was by far the best team encountered all season. Ravan nails him in the secondary. He missed it! And now there ' s no one between Edwards and pay dirt. ■■aHiiiii BASKET The Devilettes cage season was fair this year, winning four games and tying one game out of twelve scheduled games. Their score against their oppon- ents ' score was more than half, 245 points against the 329 of their opponents. The Devilettes began their season in a hard-fought battle with Russell. Due to a late start in their training season, Coach Smith and Charlotte Coyle talk over future of girls ' basketball. Coyle, Gloria Houston, Virginia Jenkins. Fay Hunter, and Frances Daniell. This game showed that the Devilettes were improving fast. In a free scoring game with Cartersville, 58 to 46, the Devilettes again came out on the short end, but the girls really gave the Cartersville sextet a strong run for their money. The Devil- ettes scoring was evenly divided between the three forwards, Charlottle Coyle, Gloria Hous- ton, and Marvene Steele. However in their next game the Devilettes showed that experience was valuable by taking a close game from Rome, 16 to 15. In a hard fought game with a perfectly coordinating team, Washington Seminary, the Devil- ettes came out on the bottom, 39 to 16. 80 BALL the girls lost a hard fought game to Russell, 16 to 12. Charlotte Coyle led the Devilettes scoring in this game, with Gloria Houston run- ning a close second. In their next game, which was with Cartersville, the Devilettes went down under a superior team, 37 to 20. Both teams scored freely in this game. Although their next game with Ellijay also ended in defeat, 28 to 17, the Devilettes showed a strong improvement over their last game. In the next game, a nip-and-tuck battle with Druid Hills, the score ended in a tie, 16 to 16. The managers, Polly McKinney, Martha- lyn Dickson, and Katherine Maddox give out baskets. Gloria Houston.

Steele and Houston led the girls in scoring in this game. In a return game with the same team the girls were again victorious, 22 to 19. But the tide was turned when the Devilettes tangled with a fast moving, hard fighting Smyrna team who came out victorious, 41 to 19. In a return game with Smyr- na, the Devilettes showed that they had improved by holding the same team that had beaten them so bad the week before to a 23 to 18 score. The next game, a hard fought battle with Rome, the girls came home with another victory, 17 to 16. Houston, Steele, and Hunter led the team in the scoring in this game. In the last 81 WHO said the easy game of Basketball? That ' s the way to work the board! game before the Tournament, the Devilettes beat a well-coached City Team by the score of 18 to 13. At the Tournament, the girls were elim- inated by a well-balanced Fitzhugh Lee team, 51 to 34. All in all the Devilettes had a successful season, but let us hope that next year the teams will bring home a trophy, something any school can be proud of. But there is another thing that this school can be proud of. That is, that we are even allowed to have athletic contests in the school and with other schools. In other coun- tries they don ' t even have schools, much less the scholastic and athletics we have in our schools here in America. So let ' s don ' t grumble and accuse the other team of unfair play when we lose, but let ' s just be thankful that, win or lose, we can still play the games as we have always played them and always will play them.

The Blue Devils were handi- capped by a long football campaign and they made a good showing, losing 26-10. Scoring among the Blue Devils was rather evenly divided but Dee Donald carried off top honors with our points. Christmas holidays caused a one- week delay in practice and after only one more week of work-outs we went to College Park for an engagement with Russell in our first out-of-town appear- ance. Neither team seemed to be able to find the basket and the Russell Wild- cats copped the low-scoring contest by a 14-7 score. Newport Donald and Gar- land Harris sank the only two field goals of the night for the Blue Devils. The other three points came on free shots. After all the scores had been compiled and all the information gathered, final statistics showed that the 1942 basketball season had been one of the most successful in recent years. Tallying 367 points to 392 for their opponents. Coach Jody Hollis ' Blue and White cagers won seven contests on a seventeen-game slate. Two of these losses were by one point margins and on each oc- casion West Fulton High School was on the long end of the score. Meeting the Macon Masonic Home at the Recrea- tion Center on Saturday night, December 18, the M. H. S. cagers opened the season against an ex- perienced Beaver Club after only two weeks of m Joe Hamby, Cotton Ravan, Joe Cell Word, Glenn Jordan, Richarc Fields, D. G. Donald, Bill Dowda, Howard Chandler, Jody Hollis, Newport Donald. Cartersville, arch rival of the Blue Devils, proved our first victim as we broke into the victory column, 21-14. We took a quick 4-0 lead in the first minute and after that were never seriously threatened. Dropping in three field goals and two free shots New- port Donald was high point man of the evening with 8 tallies. Marietta led 13-8 at the half. The next night we entertained Ellijay here and were defeated 36-23, in what turned out to be more like a free-for-all than a basketball game. Those Ellijay Mountaineers had a rough and ready five that just didn ' t miss the nets. Again Newport Donald led the scoring with 9 points. He was followed closely by brother Dee and Cotton Ravan, who had 7 each. Following the battle with Ellijay our next game was played in Atlanta with Druid Hills. We won our second contest of the year when we downed the Druids 16-13 in a close, hard- fought game. Getting off to a slow start, only four points were served in the first period but Marietta held an 8-5 lead at half-time. Cotton Ravan led the Blue Devils ' attack with 7 scores. We played Cartersville a return match on their own court a night later and the Purple 84 BASKETBALL Hurricane emerged on the top of a 25-18 score. Scoring 16 of his club ' s 25 points, Jimmy Edwards of Cartersville was high scorer of the evening. Marietta ' s next foe was Rome and the Hilltoppers came down into Cobb county to hand the Blue Devils a 20-26 licking at the Brumby Recreation Center. Rome held a 16-4 advantage at intermission. The following night we met Druid Hills for the second time. On this occasion there was another 3-point difference in the score and again Marietta was on the long end. The final score was 19-16. Next Friday the Blue Devils went down to West Fulton and dropped a very exciting battle to the Owls by a one-point margin after holding a half-time lead of 14-6. 21-2 read the scoreboard when the smoke had cleared. Gathering 7 points, Dee Donald paced the Marietta scorers. He was followed by Captain Joe Cell Word with five tallies. The third time must be a charm for in the third meeting of the season the Druids of Druid Hills High Schol stopped the Blue Devils, 20-15. The game was played on the Druid Hills court. Joe Word and Jody Hollis were deadlocked for scoring honors with four points each. Our good neighbor to the south, Smyrna, was next on the schedule, and we had little trouble disposing of them 31-10 on their own home court. Glenn Davis Jordan was the individual star for Marietta that night. One week later Smyrna came up to Marietta for a game with the Blue Devils on the Recreation Center court. Once more Hollis ' chargers were victorious, but this time the score was a good bit closer. The final score was 32-22. Take a good sight on that basket, boys. And the ball goes out of bounds. Feeling rather powerful after crushing Smyrna twice we invaded Rome and avenged the defeat we suffered at the hands of the Hilltoppers earlier in the season. The score in this game was Mari- etta 21, Rome 11. Rome was held to four points in the last half after having a 7-5 lead when the rest period came. 85 Glenn takes it off? The Blue Devils ' next opponent was a team composed of faculty members and coaches. In a rather free-scoring game youth and speed triumphed over age and experience. The Blue Devils vi on by a 44-34 count. Although the boys won the battle, Coach W. F. Smith of the fac- ulty racked up 20 points to take off scoring honors. Fate must have decreed that Marietta would not defeat West Fulton this year because the Owls again took a one-point contest in the closing seconds. Coming into the final period with a 16-10 hold on the lead the Blue Devils were unable to score a point while the Owls racked up 7 and won the game 17-16. The West Fulton thriller closed the regular season but we entered two post- season tournaments — the Seventh District Tournament and the N. G. I. C. Tourna- ment. We were eliminated in the first round each time. Dallas High School eeked out a 36-32 win over Marietta in the first round of the Seventh District Tournament. We were helpless before Smokey Joe Martin ' s mighty Decatur Bulldogs in the N. G. I. C. Tournament and they eliminated us 51-21. Big Frank Brogles led the scores with 20 points and Glenn Jordan was high man for Marietta. Cotton Ravan, Newport Donald, Dee Donald, and J. C. Jones accounted for 212 of the Blue Devils ' 367 points. Ravan MARIETTA Don ' t throw it away. Newport puts it up. 86 WINS AGAIN and Newport were deadlocked for scoring honors, each having 53 points. They were trailed by Dee, the stockier half of that Donald brothers combine, who had 52 tallies and J. C. Jones had 44 points. Coach scores for the faculty. And Jones shouts a long one.

BASEBALL Coach J. G. Hollis ' Blue Devil baseball club went through a gruelling ten-game schedule, and they ended the season with a .500 per- centage and in third place in the N. G. I. C. baseball league. The Blue Devils played eight games within the conference and were victorious in four, while losing an equal number. Marietta holds two wins each over Pulton and Richardson High Schools. The West Fulton Owls, winners in the conference for the third consecutive year, handed our boys two defeats and the mighty Decatur Bulldogs stopped the Devils twice. De- catur took second place in the N. G. I. C. We played two games outside the league, winning one and losing one. Smokey Joe Martin ' s powerhouse from De- catur was the Blue Devils ' first opponent and the Bulldogs slaughtered us 16-5, behind the five-hit pitching of Allen Shelton. Frank Broyles knocked two four-baggers for the visi- tors and Buddy Sanger connected with a round house for the home team. The next game was played here in Brown ' s Park and we took a close eleven-inning battle from the Fulton High Cardinals, 8-7. By the same score we stopped the Rams of Richard- son the same week. Following these two tight contests, we went to Atlanta to meet the league-leading West Ful- ton Owls (after playing us they were still Mitchell throws the ivinning pitch. leading the league). They handed us a 10-6 defeat on their home field. In the fourth inning the Owls tallied all ten of their runs. Three days later Marietta journeyed down to DeKalb county for a second contest with Decatur. On this occasion they beat us by a score of 11-1. Frank Broyles was the win- ning pitcher for the Bulldogs. The next week at Fulton High School, we copped a conference game from the Cardinals by defeating them 11-10. A rally in the ninth inning won the game for Marietta. Richardson High was our ne.xt victim. We stopped the Rams, 7-2, and on their home d ia- mond. The Blue Devil batters pounded three Ram Twirlers for twelve base knocks. West Fulton was encountered next and the Owls were still leading the N. G. I. C. baseball league at the time. They beat us 5-3 out in Brown ' s Park. The Blue Devils played a good game, but the breaks just went against them that day. This was the last game in the N. G. I. C. dia- mond race, but we played two post season con- tests with Douglasville High School. The first of these games was played and we were vic- torious 10-2. Freshman Southpaw Warren Quarles, handcuffed the Douglasville hitters with four hits. Our second meeting had a rather different outcome, though. Douglasville took a seven- inning battle on their home field by a 6-5 score. The victors staged a 3-run rally in the seventh inning. Nice form, Edwards. And it ' s a hit! Willis and Cairnes open Edwards ' locker for him.
