Norris Faculty Supervisor - Miss Ethel M. Kelley The French Club consists of fifteen advanced French students who have an A or B average in French, and who are really interested in that language. The aim of the organization is to promote fluency in spoken French and to acquire a deeper appreciation of the language, spirit, and institutions of France. The club’s motto is “Vouloir, c’est pouvoir,”—“When there’s c will, there’s a way.” This is believed to express the spirit of the members. This year, the group has had several interesting meetings during which the members have enjoyed French songs, playlets, and games. Speakers have also been invited to speak before the club, and several enjoyable parties have been held at homes of members. Membership is as follows: Marian Bergland Leah Bird Minnie Bodendorfer Lois Chamber's Ted Colchiski Patricia Cubbison Edwin Harper Burdeen John Jack Jones Pauline Manos Ed. Norris Beryl Nunn John Othites Irene Saul Ruth Shale THE STUDENT COUNCIL AND REPRESENTATIVES President Vice President - Secretary Assistant Secretary Treasurer News Reporter Lawrence Bennett Ralph Davies William Shira Wallace Byers Becky Carson Bob Allen Members: Seniors:—Becky Carson, Evelyn Van Buren, Richard Ramsey, Bob Allen, Jane Bechtol, Mary Miller, Abe Abraham, Wallace Byers. Juniors:—Ruth Shale, Ralph Davies, Bill Shira, Betty Matthews, Joe Wysosky, Lawrence Bennett. Sophomores:—Ruth Connors, Richard Gregor, Dorothy Ward, Manuel Kakos. The Student Council in Ne-Ca-Hi attempts to represent the interests of the student body in all matters which involve the cooperation of the faculty and serves as a regulating instrument of student affairs such as election of representatives and preparation of student activities. The Student Representatives also aid in the cooperation between the faculty and the students and work under the direction of the Council. Both organizations are just as much as the students make them and if their work is further developed it will be for the betterment of the whole school.

Baldwin Ruth Phillips John Eckleberger Richard Rentz - Martha Bryan Arthur Kohn THE SENIOR CLASS PLAY “BAB” Mr. and Mrs. James Archibald (Omar Donaldson and Jayne Magee) have two daughters, Bab and Leila, (Becky Carson and Marian Hughes). Leila is the apple of the family’s eye, while Bab is the fly in the ointment or whatever else you may call it. Bab usually has the family in a cold chill for fear she’ll upset their plans to get Leila, the older girl, married. Clinton Beresford (Richard Rentz), a mystery man from England, is a week-end guest at the Archibald home, much to the delight of Mrs. Archibald and to the disgust of Mr. Archibald. Refused permission to attend a dinner party for Leila, Bab builds up a romance with a mythical Harold Valentine. The serving maid, Hannah (Martha Bryan), intercepts a letter written to him. Carter Brooks (Bud Gordon) brings in an actor, Guy Grosvenor (Heber Baldwin), to impersonate the mythical Harold, and Bab is in great difficulties. It finally ends with Bab arranging an elopement between Leila and Beresford and getting a large contract for car wheels for her father’s factory from the British government. Brooks discloses a life long passion for Bab just before the curtain falls. The parts of Jane Raleigh and Eddie Perkins, companions of Bab, were taken by Ruth Phillips and John Eckleberger, and the part of William, the butler, by Arthur Kohn.

Suber Ruth Phillips James Lutton Dick Mellwain Dorothy Price June Cambpell Minnie Wonner Eleanor Casey Leah Bii’d Betty Norris Bob Reynolds THE SAGA OF THE ARK Class President Noah Baldwin, That patriarch of yore, Bought fourteen nails and fifteen bolts At the corner hardware store. He got some planks together, And built a mighty ark; In span ‘twas fifty cubits, And it reached to Cascade Park From near the public square; and was Full thirty cubits high. He said ‘twas for some animals Nor told the reason why. And soon the day for sailing came; The populace all laughed, But dauntless Noah rounded up Bear, tiger, and giraffe; All animals he gathered there. Then it began to rain; And floods rose high in all the streets— The frightened people came And begged for entrance to the Ark; But Noah said the mass Was wicked; so he took his friends, His family, and his class. And then he shut the storm-door And jeered the mob outside; When, up upon the High-School roof, The Faculty he spied. So when the great boat floated free, He steered right toward the school; And let the grateful teachers in, Though ‘twas against the rule. For forty days and nights it rained And covered the earth’s face. Good Noah then took time to put Each person in his place. He organized the company well So each could do his share; And gave his trusty classmate crew Neat uniforms to wear. The helmsman was Bob Allen; Ed. Norris, engineer, Ben Johnson, on the mainmast tall For enemies did peer. While in another crows-nest high, Miss Elliott watched for land; And music cheered the voyage long, Thanks to the High School band. Don Burley kept the charts and maps. And plotted well the course; While Donaldson, Rentz and Gordon Kept feeding Noah’s horse. They had a first-class army, too, Strict order for to keep. One night a first-lieutenant killed A comrade in his sleep. “What makes you look so white, so white?” Said Files-on Parade. “I’m dreadin’ what I’ve got to watch,” The Colour-Sergeant said. “They are hanging Howard Burkley And the hangman’s Francis Quinn; Burkley jabbed a snoring comrade With a six-inch safety pin.” “What’s that so black against the sun?” Said Files-on Parade. “It’s Burkley fightin’ hard for life,” The Colour-Sergeant said. “What’s that that whimpers overhead?” Said Files-on Parade. “It’s Burkley’s soul that’s passin’ now,” The Colour-Sergeant said. “For they’re done with Howard Burkley In the mor-r-r-r-r-nin’.” In the kitchen of the Ark Two cooks prepared the meals. The only thing they made was hash Of soap and rubber heels. Until one day the folks got sick Who tried to digest that; So cooks Carl Ambrose and Jack Louer Were fired by Eleanor Matt; And in their place were put two chefs Of reputation wide; They were A1 Bodendorfer And Edwin F. McBride. Now soon the Ark of Noah sailed O’er France and Germany. Ben Johnson cried from up above, “A periscope I see!” So brave, old Noah rushed on deck And gazed off starboard side “It is a German submarine; We’d better try to hide. Now look! They’re rising to the top And opening a hatch. They plainly want to board our ship; Perhaps to make a catch. But no—their purpose friendly is, The flag they wave is white; Let’s welcome them abord our boat, ’Tis plain they want no fight.” The leader Adolf Hitler was: His shirt a sorry mess: It’s famous brown was faded, but His face showed happiness. And when he stepped on to the Ark The first thing that he said Was, “Where’s Miss Dinsmore, where is she? With her I wish to speak.” He talked with her on government, Fascism, arms and war; But never once persuaded her To like it one bit more. She told him that it was no use To ai'gue further now; Because his country was all drowned And ruined anyhow. That evening Hitler stood against The rail, to look around, When an anti-Hitler crowd, Sneaked up without a sound; And, all together, seized him hard, And threw him overboard, So after that from Hitler proud Was heard no other word. One day it happened that the Ark Struck something hard, like steel. “The waters are receding now, For there we’ve bumped our keel Against a lofty tower of The Skyride at the Fair. So we’re above Chicago now And so for home I’ll steer.” Thus spake our wise old Noah, Then said, “ ‘Twill be a year Before the land dries off enough, But meanwhile have no fear.” One day in January chill, “Scoots” Nelson came around With papers for a big exam----- But all at once he found That angry students ’round him ranged And pushed him toward the rail. “The plank!” they cried, “He’ll walk the plank! We’ll end him without fail.” And so they forced him off the plank; Take heed, O Facutly! Within just five short minutes, A frozen corpse was he. And now we feel that we must tell, Of Station S. O. S., That broadcast from on board the Ark— I’ll bet you cannot guess Who played droll Eddie Cantor on The Chase and Sanborn Hour. Why, it was John Othites, with James (Marshall) Wallington. They also had Phil Baker— His name was Alfred Doerr. He played on his accordion Till listeners begged for more. Bob Burchfield, alias “Beetle’ Fulfilled the role of pest; George Conway, alias “Bottle” Was married to Mae West. The Ark indeed was well-equipped, Old Noah saw to that. It had a public library Where students often sat. Mary Gaston was librarian; And Becky Carson told Wondrous tales of elves and knights, And kings, and giants bold, To the wide-eyed children there, Who came at half-past four To the public library For the Wednesday Story Hour. Miss Beryl Nunn, and Leah Bird, And Misses Lee and Hughes, Made clothing for the animals, (The ones who paid their dues.) For transportation on the Ark Could not be given free; It cost them all ten cents a month For transit o’er the sea. “There’s something wrong here, Mr. Weide,” Bee Lewis said one day, “The kangaroos don’t move a hair— They used to be so gay.” So Mr. Weide looked in the cage “They’re dead, they’ll jump no more, For what they drank for H O Was H-S04. A gallon of it disappeared From near my lab last night; You must have given it to them, For now they’re dead all right” And thus the Ark sailed on and on, Until the year was past; Then, sure enough, the waters deep Were really sinking fast. So, Noah, from the flying-deck Sent out two small airplanes. The pilots were Coulthard and Houk They rode the sky-high lanes In search of land, whereon the Ark Could finally come to rest. And when they in their planes returned, Their news was of the best. So now old Noah sailed along Until he found the place; And. as the Ark approached dry land, Relief was in his face. And so the journey ended, The Ark will float no more; It landed on Mount Arrowroot In a North Hill grocery store. The moral here is plain to see. It is in no disguise: Don’t ever, ever, even try Such a darn-fool enterprise. —Robert Burchfield Helen Messner “Memories” Beryl Nunn Irene Hietsch Merle Fisher Jean Haug Marguerite Hoffman Dorothy Weygant Olive Moser Ray Bates Irene Connors Evelyn Van Buren Isabel Connors Bob Allen Anna Mary Alexander Helen McEwen OUR GUIDE-MISS GAILEY As through the mountains on a long tiring trip, We’re led by guides so we won’t make a slip, Through our mountain journey at good Ne-Ca-Hi, We’ve had a good guide, whose by-word was “try”. “Try to get dues, so our picture will go In the Senior Annual, our part in the show.” “Try drowning your worries” were the words of our guide; Then out would step happiness, pushing worries aside. When big hills overtook us, and we all felt frail, There’d be our helper, and over the top we would sail. With those helping hands and that “ever ready” smile Our troubles all vanished and life proved worthwhile. We wish in the future in all of life’s tests The happiest years, filled with the best. —By Evelyn Van Buren OUR SUPERVISOR M is for many, the good deeds she’s done.

Someone found a new excuse for being late. Every Senior wasn’t brilliant. We had a vacation without assignments. Anna Mae Lloyd, June Maxler and Vivian Nunn were to come to school on time. School Board would go N.R.A. and schools were one day a week and five hours a day. Miss Hartsuff couldn’t produce a play. The faculty would listen to reason. Mr. Casillo would forget he is good looking. Mr. Kelley would resign. Our football team would lose a game. Every one loved Detention Hall. Perfect order in class meeting. Seniors would do what they wanted to do. Monitors didn’t say anything if a person went up the wrong stairs. Miss McGoun excused Seniors from Gym without giving them two minus points.

At least, there are a lot of people who try their best to produce it, but they only manage to make monkeys out of themselves. A joke told by some certain one may be entirely without that something which makes us roar with laughter. Humor seems to be a very subtle thing. Queer how it makes us either a very desirable person or a tiresome bore. Well for one thing humor is used by people to make them more likeable but as is often the case people using it as a pretence for hiding ignorance, show how little they really do know. Humor seems to come in handy when trying to wiggle out of tight places. It is used in the home, in the office, on the train, or in the country. If it were not for humor, life would have a flat taste. Now that we have fully explained and apologized for humor we hope that a lot of seriousminded people will take it more seriously.

All the joys and pleasures of life forsook. In the library sought a quiet nook, And buried his head in a Latin book Even as you and I. A fool there was, and he got a flunk Even as you and I.
