TALL OAKS FROM
TREES
by joyce Kilmer
I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree.
A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the earth's sweet flowing hreastg
A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her leafy arms to pray,'
A tree that may in summer wear
A nest of rohins in her hairy
Upon whose bosom snow has lain,-
Who intimately lives with rain.
Poems are made hy fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.
LITTLE ACORNS GROW."
THE OLD OAK TREE SAYS:
Yoifal scarce expect one of my age
To speak in public on the stageg
And if I chance to fall helow
Dentosthenes or Cicero,
Don't view me with a critic's eye,
But pass my imperfections hy,
Large streams from little fountains flow,
Tall oaks from little acorns grow.
--David Everett

O, WELL-BELOVED
Not while a hoy still whistles on the earth,
Not while a single human heart heats true,
Not while Love lasts, and Honor, and the Brave,
Has earth a grave,
O well-beloved, for you!
-Rithard LeGallienne
BELOVED
Music, when soft voices die,
Vihrates in the nzen1o1'y,'
Odors, when sweet violets sirhen,
Live within the sense they quicken.
Rose leaves, when the rose is dead,
Are heaped for the heloved's hedg
And so thy thoughts, when thou art gone,
Love itself shall slurnher on.
- SHELLEY

Mendel
Walter Mendel stood out in
scholarship and character. His
actions were always above and
beyond reproach, and his class-
mates and friends will never
forget him, The things he stood
for will live forever. His good
cheer and high ideals were ex-
emplary.
Walter was a well-known
flier in Western Michigan, avi-
ation being one of his many
hobbies and accomplishments.
To have known Walter was a
privilege and a pleasure. We
shall miss him.
Sumner
Robert Sumner, a junior, was
known by his friends as a jolly,
all-round good fellow. He took
an active part in school activi-
ties, and was very interested
in athletics, especially football
and baseball.
Bob had a friendly greeting
for everyone. His ready laugh
sounded frequently through
our halls. Some of his class-
mates tell us he played a good
game of chess. His close chums
recall with pleasure the good
times they had together -in a
local bakery, where pies,
doughnuts, and other delicacies
of the pastry cook held a
special appeal for Bob.

MR. W R BOOKER
Indiana born cmd bred, Mr. W. R. Booker, our super-
intendent, has had a lifetime of experience in school
business. He knows the meaning of being a pupil,
a teacher, a college professor, and an administrator.
Persons well qualified to judge often declare Mr.
Booker is one of the most able administrators in the
public schools of Michigan. He is frequently placed
on state and local committees of importance, and is
mentioned from time to time for topflight educational
positions.
However, and fortunately for our senior class, Mr.
Booker has continued to head up our local system
of schools during our entire educational career. He
has the complete confidence of our Board of Educa-
tion, the faculty, and the townspeople, as well as the
students. We say farewell with sincerest admiration
and respect

The Board ot Education here represented, tor the most
part, is a veteran organization. Many ot the men on the
present board have held office tor several years past. All
of these men are capable, competent executives, sympa-
thetic to the cause of education and sincerely interested
in the children of this community. Muskegon Heights may
well be proud of the unselfish effort ot these men. ln the
case ot President Lawrence Carl, he is the son of a former
Board of Education leader, his mother.

Born and educated in Grand Haven, Mr. C. F. Bolt
later was graduated by the University of Michigan,
and the University of Wisconsin. He taught mathe-
matics in Houghton High school and was principal in
Bismarck, N. D. before coming here as principal in
1921.
Mr. Bolt has seen the senior class grow from 16
graduates in Iune, 1922, to more than ZUU in recent
years. He has seen our football team defeated by
Grand Haven 105 to 0, and has also seen the Tigers
rise to state championship caliber. During his entire
career, Mr. Bolt has served as chairman of the Board
of Publications, a job which has earned the gratitude
of the journalism classes and Oaks staff.
In short, Mr, Bolt has taught school sincerely lor
some 35 years or more. We know of no higher calling
than education. We know few principals as loyal as
Mr. Bolt.

The A Cappella Choir, composed of
half a hundred voices, is one of the
most popular and progressive organi-
zations in the school. During the last
few years, and especially during 1947-
48, the choir has given our school much
reason to be proud of it. The choir has
come a long way since it first was or-
ganized a few years ago, in 1943, un-
der direction of the late Gayle Church-
ill. lt was excellent the first year oi its
organization, and has continued to
make progress. Today, it is rated
among the toptlight choirs in Michigan.

When the call lor bandmen was first issued last fall
by our new band director, Mr. Paul Liddicoat, about 40
students responded. Of these fully half were cornet
players. However, by the time the band entered the
District Band contest held in Grand Rapids on April
l0, Mr. Liddicoat had succeeded in building the band
into a balanced 75 piece organization.
Under Mr. Liddicoat's guiding hand, the band en-
joyed the most active year in history. Besides the Dis-
trict Band contest, the band played nine varsity foot-
ball games, one reserve football game, seven pep
sessions, two performances of the senior play, two per-
formances of the junior play, and one awards assem-
bly. The band marched in the annual Christmas pa-

When the spring marching season came around, the
band took part in the Tulip festival held at Holland,
played for both the softball and baseball games. The
band marched in the annual Memorial Day parade,
and also presented a band review program.
On the social side of the ledger, the band members
enjoyed a sleigh ride in Ianuary and cr picnic this
spring. Congratulations to the band and its director,
Mr. Paul Liddicoat, for an outstanding as well as suc-
cessful year.

A series of forensic contests are held
each year to promote interest in speech
and develop students with special tal-
ents in this field.
As in previous years, there was much
competition. First place in the Qriginal
Oratory Contest was taken by Winston
Boelkins. His Oration Was entitled "An
Earnest Appeal For Peace." Douglas
Cutler took second place, and Bernard
Steindler, third.

Betty Downey took first place in the
Dramatic Declamation contest with
second place going to Marilyn Lein,
and third to Harriett Begley.
ln the Oratorical Declamation, Ken-
neth Cutler captured first place, with
Evelyn Workman taking second, and
Virginia McDowell, third.
Douglas Cutler represented Muske-
gon Heights in the district Extempora-
neous Contest.

The debate team enjoyed a very
successful season. Under the coaching
of Miss Iulia Royse and Mr. E. W. Gil-
laspy, they reached the semi-finals of
the state forensic tournament before
losing out to Lansing Eastern.
In pre-tournament debating, Shirley
Williams and David Wampler upheld
the affirmative, with Winston Boelkins
and Douglas Cutler composing the
negative team.
Some of the opponents were Battle
Creek, Lansing Sexton, Hudsonville,
and Traverse City. The question being
debated was: "Resolved, that the Fed-
e t ophy o b half of the team. Members of the team, left to
Cutler
eral government should require arbi-
tration of labor disputes in all basic
American industries." Debating took
on an added interest as the team took
several trips, including a debate trip
to Ann Arbor. The addition of several
prizes also proved to be incentive
enough for a fine turnout of debaters
throughout the state.
The Tiger debaters received indivi-
dual certificates of merit from the De-
troit Free Press, a plaque for outstand-
ing debating, a banner for winning the
regional tournament, and a trophy for
entering the semi-finals.

SCHOOL NEWS
THE NEWS BUREAU
Perhaps you didnt know that our school had a News
Bureau, You may recognize it if you think of it as a
combination ol l'The Acorn " the "School Page" in The
Chronicle, and the 'Kernel of the News" columns in
The Record
The News Bureau is organized tor the purpose ol
giving students ol iournalism actual newswritina and
publishing experience in connection with their text-
book study of yournalism At the same time, the
bureau proves ot great benefit to the school All social
and educational activities are publicized in the local
newspapers In this way parents and friends can
keep in touch with the school, and with the doings at
their sons and daughters.
The value of school news is widely recognized to-
day. In industry it is called "public relations" and
serves much the same purpose. lt creates good will in
the community, and unity and cooperation among all

THE ACORN AND THE OAKS
Production of The Acorn and The
Oaks is a publishing project, in addi-
tion to regular classroom study in
jouralism, which senior students under-
take each year.
The Acorn, as perhaps you know, is
our high school newspaper, edited dur-
ing the first semester, printed in our
own print shop. It has always been a
popular and beneficial publication.
The Oaks is a much larger project
published only once a year, in Iune,
in the form of a yearbook, or annual.
It contains, as you know, the records
of our teams, information on all clubs
and activities, and photographs of vir-
tually everyone in school. It costs
about 54,000 to publish, even though
the printing itself is done "free" in our
own school print shop, under direction
of Mr. C. F. Koehn.
Art students do the drawings, includ-
ing the cover design which this year
was made by Elmer Iohnson. Miss Keil-
lor is art supervisor. Covers are manu-
factured in Chicago. All our engrav-
ings Ccutsj from which the pictures are
printed, are made in Indianapolis.
Most of our photographs are taken by
Mr. I. V. Cobb, of our faculty.
It requires a ton of paper to print The
Oaks, paper for which is purchased
in Grand Rapids. Covers are bound
and glued to the "insides" in Lansing
and returned at once to our school by
truck. All seniors are salesmen for the
books, directed by Mr. R. A. Peterman.
Advertising is sold by the seniors, di-
rected by Principal C. F. Bolt. The book
itself is planned, written, and edited
by the Oaks staff directed by W. E.
Murray, English instructor.
So you see, The Oaks is an example
of the cooperation of hundreds of peo-
ple employing dozens of talents. We
hope you like it for years to come.

With more than the usual number
of returning lettermen, the Tiger base-
ball squad was looking forward to an-
other successful season when The Oaks
went to press. Along with several
promising sophomores and juniors are
such veterans as Doug Iacobson and
Iack Bramble, pitchers, Frank Howell,
second-basemang and Gerald Iacob-
son, catcher. Ken Liefer, who played
shortstop last year, may play the same
position or be switched to the outfield.
Any of the pitching staff can be called
on to play in the outfield when neces-
sary. The only position in real doubt
is that of first base left vacant by Al
Cater who held down the position dur-
ing all three years in high school. With
all this talent at Coach Oscar E. Iohn-
son's command, the 1948 baseball sea-
son should be a successful one.

son as this section of The Oaks was
going to press.
Such hopes at least were expressed
by many ot the returning veterans of
last year's squad under direction of
Coach David R. McKenzie. On the team
this year are such boys as the follow-
ing: Frank Bernard, quarter-miler, Bill
McGahee and Herman Ivory, dash-
rnen, Don Walters and Ray Carslake,
hurdlers, Mike Alfultis, half-miler, Bill
Ostradick, relays, Tom Iohnson, expert
shot-putter who already had broken
the school record with a heave of 48
feet tive inches before the season was
Well under way, Bob Flowers and Clar-
ence Schmidt, pole-vaulters.

Top Row: K. Cutler, Grammel, Long, Hughes, Moore, Knopf, A. Bredin.
Middle Row: Coach Firme, MacDowell, B. Iohnson, H. Bredin, N. Smith, Gurst, Nordstrom.
Bottom Row: Courtright, Wiganusky, Caughey, Hansen, McGregor, Veeneman, D. Cutler.
1947
In their first match, the Tigers
downed a strong Fremont team 5-2.
They followed up this win with another
over Grand Haven. However, after
this excellent beginning, the squad be-
gan to hit the skids, losing to Benton
Harbor, Kalamazoo, and Holland in
succession.
In tournament play, the Tigers fared
little better. Their No. l singles player,
Charles Votaw, managed to win his
first tournament match, but lost the sec-
ond and was eliminated. The out-
standing bright spot of the season and
the team, perhaps, was the perform-
ance of the No. l doubles team, Han-
sen and Caughey. These two boys
reached the semi-finals before losing
their first match of the entire season to
a strong Kalamazoo Central duet.
1948
However, when this section of The
Oaks was going to press, a large
squad of boys was working out under
the direction of the new tennis coach,
Del Firme, who also is our assistant
football coach. At the first practice,
Coach Firme was greeted by six vet-
erans from last season: including Han-
sen and Caughey, No. l doubles team
which lost only one match last year,
MacDowell and Nedeau, No. 3 doubles
team of last year, Courtright, No. 3 sin-
gles player, and Wiganusky, No. 4
singles.

GIRLS' PHYSICAL EDUCATION
Physical education for girls is an im
portant part of the curriculum. With
Miss Maxine Cobb as instructor the
girls not only keep in good physical
condition throughout the year, but also
manage to have fun.

The tall season started ott with a
bang, as teams were organized in soc-
cer, Iield ball, volleyball, basketball.
Spring brought teams in baseball and
in track. Since inter-school sports are
not on the schedule in the Southwest-
ern Conterence, girls content them-
selves with intramural sports.
This past year more than 65 girls
signed up for intramural basketball,
from all three classes.

HOW TO BE AQBOOKKEEPER
IN ONE EASY LESSON
In the picture above are several high school students busily
engaged in studying bookkeeping, an important subject in our
commercial department . . .
Did you ever think that perhaps you, too, could be a book-
keeper? You can if you Wish . . . in one easy lesson. In fact, if
you own the copy of The Oaks which you now have in your
hands, you are already a "book keeper" . . . you will very prob-
ably keep this book for years . . . even show it to your grand-
children . . .
That's what makes advertising in The Oaks more than a mere
donation. You not only tell your story once, but again and again.
lt pays to advertise in The Oaks.
