artistic touches for our classrooms and hallways. This is the advanced art class
working under the watchful eye of Mrs. Rood.

SENIOR CLASS.
A senior trip was one of our biggest problems of the year. Although we talked
of visiting Washington, D. C., we finally decided to take a three day boat cruise on
Lake Michigan, spending one of the days on Mackinac Island at the top of the
Southern Peninsula of Michigan. This trip will take place from May 28 to 30.
The seniors sold tickets for a motion picture, "Killer McCoy." The proceeds from
this project helped pay for our trip.
During the Christmas vacation we had a sleigh ride, after which
the Virginia Reel, and played fox and geese. W
but happy faces.

JUNIOR
CLASS.
Under the capable leadership of our sponsors, Mrs. Rood and Mr. Postma, we
the class of '49, have successfully completed another year at good old N. H. S.
We elected Wendell Metzler as our president and Patty Pippen as our vice-
president. The secretary remains Phyllis Weaver. Beverly Hahn and Charles
Chapman were chosen to represent us in the Student Council.
To raise money for reception we sold magazine subscriptions, as the juniors are
accustomed to doing. We also got the proceeds from selling concessions at the basket-
ball games.
We enjoyed two parties during the year. The first was a weiner roast at Ceyers'
Dam followed .by a hayride. The other was a roller skating party at Elkhart.

The Student Council is an organization which strives to promote the general welfare of the school and improve
the conditions therein in every way possible. Its membership consists of two representatives from each home
room, and the National Honor Society.
In addition to the principal duty of the club-that of settling school problems - we have sponsored seven
special assembly programs with entertainment provided by The Schools Assemblies Service. We also sponsored a bu:
to all outside basketball games. It is really an honor to be a member of the Student Council.

The Y-Teens, under the sponsorship of Miss Hoover and Mrs. Miles, have again had a very successful year.
We have a membership of seventy-six students from the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth grades. .
On October 7, the thirty-six new members were welcomed into the organization by the serious initiation.
They found our slogan to be "To Face Life Squarelyu and our purpose "To Find and Give the Best."
A few of the Y-Teen girls attended the Y-Teen conference at Gary, Indiana, on February 7, and learned how
to make our organization more interesting. Other outstanding events were the sponsoring of a Bad Luck llance
on Friday, February lil, and also making candles to send to Holland. llonna Uline

The first annual called the "Napanet" was
published in 1924. Since that time the
HNa t77 ' '
pane has been Something to which all
students and many adults look forward each
year. Now, with the completion of all the
h
p otography, mounting, engraving, print-
ing, and binding, the staff presents the 1948
"Napanet." Special thanks should go to the
Lockridge Studio of Rochester Dr, Mac-

House, all of whom helped to make this
yearbook possible,

An enthusiastic Journalism Club of about
forty members published nine regular is-
sues of "D'Bulldog." A fine spirit of co-
operation and responsibility enabled the
staff to deliver the paper on time each
month.
A special feature was an extra April
Fool issue which created much interest.
Margaret Farrington, the efficient editor,
was sent by the club to the two weeks Press
Conference held at Indiana University July
21 to August 2, 1947.

Again the band has had an important place in our school's activities. lt well
deserves the attractive new uniforms and equipment for which members and towns-
people worked so diligently and contributed so generously through the Band Boosters
Club. The superior ratings merited in each contest in which the band participated
prove the organization deserved and appreciated the splendid cooperation from

"You're flat," "Think highergn "Wonderfulg" "You can do it if you
try," are just a few of the expressions used by our director, Mrs, Reinoehl, during
the school year.
There are fifty-one in the class this year. The ability to sight-read. quality of
voice. and attitude toward the work qualified thirty-two members for robes. The
rohe choir goes to the District Music Contest and gives special programs.
Besides the robe choir we have a sextet, consisting of Patty Pippen, Shirley Davis.
Donna Uline, Margaret Mutschler, Phyllis Weaver, and Beverly Hahn, and also a
triple trio, consisting of these same girls plus Buth Speicher, Betty Hostetter, and

DEBATE CLUB
An increased interest in forensics was shown this year by the enrollment of sixteen members in the llebatf
Club. We did not take part in inter-scholastic debating, however. Activities were confined to round table dis
cussions, panel programs, and club debates.
The most profitable experience of the year was two days spent on the Purdue campus attending the llebatc
and lforensic Conference, December 5 and 6, 1947.

LIBRARIANS
Librarians keep magazines and books in order, check books in and out, collect fines on overdue books, and get
books for students from the reserve cupboard.
The school subscribes to thirty magazines and the library has many types of reference material, along with
some fiction. A large new Funk and Wagnall's unabridged dictionary is a favorite source of information.

Our Hi-Y Club this year is one of the largest there has ever been. We started out the year with fifty-one
members. The advisory council members are Mr. Best, Mr. Mummert, Mr. Weddle, Mr. Roose, and Mr. Klitzke.
During the Infantile Paralysis Fund Drive in January, our club raised two hundred dollars and ninety-five
cents. This included proceeds from our annual dimeline, the high school, and the grade school. Mark Cox was
chairman of this committee. Our club was very proud of the amount of money taken in, for it surpassed all
previous collections.
The Father and Son Banquet was held on March 9 at the Grace EUB Church, The Reverend V. L. Palmer of
Bremen was the speaker. The attendance at this supper was greater than in any previous year.
Eighteen seniors were awarded Hi-Y "N" letters this year. Their letters are maroon and white.
