We salute Mr. DeMarco for his unfailing effort and interest for the music department of the Ordway Public School. Since Mr. DeMarco's employment, he has organized Mixed Chorus and improved the Glee Club and Band. Along with his many other activities, he has taken active part each year in making the Christmas program a complete and im- pressive success. His inspiring devotion and excellent influences have in- creased the membership and interest in music organizations in our school. v Y' . 41 .nr-is .--44 jqlffafly af The present Ordway School building was erected in 1919 after the original building was destroyed by fire. The well-kept lawn and lovely trees add to the beauty of the grounds. The building, the staff, and the program qualify the high school to be a member of the North Central Association of the High Schools and Colleges. The graduating class of 1952 will be the forty-fourth class to graduate from Ordway High, In 1908 the first commencement exercises were heldg Lily Edgar, nowMrs. J. C.

LYONS, Treasurer HARLES M. , Secretary SCHOOL DISTRICT NO. 12 CROWLEY COUNTY COLORADO O.H.S., long recognized as the center of interest in the commu- nity and as an outstanding achievement in the field continues to press on in its endeavor to strengthen better serve the students in this and future years. is continually being reviewed by the administration that in an ever-changing society the boys and girls of education, its program and The curriculum with the View who graduate from high school must be better and better prepared to meet the challenges in a world that is becoming more perplexing by the year. Through a joint meeting of the board of education, the grade and high school principals, and the superintendent, it was felt that one step which could be taken was the strengthening of the requirements for gradu- ation in the academic courses and likewise offering a broader selec- tion in the non-academic and vocational fields. This step has been taken and has been in effect this past year. Requirements for graduation now include two units of science, two units in mathematics Calgebra I and geometryj, one year of Ameri- can History, and three years of English. Along with the three years of English, there has been initiated a sophomore English examination which all students must pass in order to graduate. In the field of the non-required courses, the subjects of journalism, speech, and crafts--open to both boys and girls--have been added to the program so far. Next year will witness still further strengthening by adding vocational homemaking to the curriculum. The entire community has been interested and instrumental in the remodeling and preparing the department for the coming program. New equipment has been purchased for the entire department and it is felt that our facilities are second to none in this part of the state. The community interest which has been generated in the school program has not been limited to the classroom. A year ago last fall the patrons of the commu- nity fell behind the band program and bought new band uniforms for a M5 piece band. This particular undertaking was financed in the short period of a few months. The enthusiasm as has been shown in these two projects indicated that the people are interested in a forward-looking program of education, and it is our aim to keep such a plan before them. Such an outline for educational development should not fail in its endeavor to better serve the graduating boys and girls as they fit themselves to better attack the changing world which lies before them.

Fif- teen are third graders and seven are in the fourth grade. Each class does the work re- quired for his grade, but we do have room activities such as spelling bees, arithmetic con- tests, story telling and correct speech activities. In our social studies wurk the children make out thought questions over the material read, After the questions are evaluated the children ask their questions and if no one in the class can answer a question they must read to find the answer. In the third grade we study several subjects such as read- ing, spelling, language, writ- ing, health, ,s oc i al studies, and arithmetic, Our activi- ties include art and music. ,Nafwf ji Social studies is a new subject to us in which we learn about workers at home and away. Science teaches us the story of the sun, moon, and stars, of the world of long ago and about plants and animals. New things that we learn in arithmetic are carrying and borrowing in addition and sub- traction and how to multiply and divide. We learn to write letters in language, give T H I R D 6 R A D E reports, make good sentences, use words correctly and study poems and stories.

This two-act play by Anna Perrott Rose was combined comedy and pathos. Most of the story occurred in the family's beach cottage The Pumpkin Shell. The family could always find room for another person in their midst--whether that person was an orphan, a cripple, or just lonely. This play had its funny parts such as, giving artificial respiration to a turtle, and its sad parts with the death of lovable Poppy. We are sure that all who saw this inspirational play will remember it for years to come. 611 f Poppy, Jim Zuberg Mother, Deloris Benorthamg Trot Rose, Marie Avarag Teensie Rose, Velma Maxsong Joey, Ed Moreland: Mrs. Biddle, Doris Dodd: George Biddle, Bob Barnes, Betty Biddle, Patricia Kiper, Miss Winston, Nadine Grasmickg Jimmy John, John Bailey: Janey, Wanda Sticeg Rescued Woman, Clara Glenn. x .f, L mlm has fray rge s re of her property, on the condition that Ann will get married.

The Ordway High School football team was made up of a few lettermen and many inexperienced players. However, the two coaches, Hal Pfeifer and Bill McKimmey did a fine job of shaping the players into a team which lost three league games, tied one, and won two. Although Ordway was beaten by Manzanola on their home field, Ckdway scored more points against Manzanola than any other team had done pre- viously. The football season started with the initial practice on August 25. The first game was with Limon, Sep- tember 14. The season ended with Ordway in second place after beating Fowler on November 2.
