Ha ynes Died December 14, 1944 All members of our High School, whether faculty, students or parents, were deeply grieved at the loss of Miss Alta L. Haynes during this past year. lt has been long since we have experienced so severe a blow to our school. lt is true, her classes were taken over by another teacher, but we all realize that no one could fill her unique place. We all realize that our very best will not be sufficient to fill the breach caused by her un- timely death. The news of her passing leads us to investi- gate her record in some detail. A graduate of this High School, with the class of 1897, she be- gan teaching almost immediately. For forty-two years she had been a member of the regular teach- ing staff of Wyandotte High School. During that entire time she was absent from her duties but eight days. During that time, for twenty-six years, continuously, she did not miss a single day of school. Her attitude toward her students, her co- workers, and the parents, was just as faithful and true as her attendance record. S I have never known so outstanding a record of service as she has given us. Without question, her work always came first in her thinking. We naturally think of the many ways in which her efforts here seem practically indispensable. Some of the best secretaries in greater Kansas City were trained in her classes. ln her thinking, an efficient secretary, well trained, and with the right disposition toward her work, was an almost in- dispensable person in any business organization. Her students reflect her attitude wherever they go. It remains for us all, co-workers and students, to carry on in the best way possible, thus ever keeping in mind the magnificent example Miss Alta L. Haynes has set for us. Principal J. F. Wellemeyer Page 7 Superintendent The highest educational honor of the nation came to Superintendent Schlagle and Kansas City, Kansas when, last summer, Mr. Schlagle was elected president of the National Education As- sociation. Working with other national leaders in government, industry and education, Mr. Schlagle has initiated. a vital educational pro- gram. The following paragraphs include a few of the ideas incorporated in that program. Labor, industry, business, and government are all planning for the future. Their plans will fail unless there are people capable of carrying them out. That is why we must provide an edu- cational opportunity for all citizens-wherever they live-whatever their present status in life-rich or poor, young or old, regardless of race, creed, or color. We must make sure that our best potential leadership is found and developed. Our schools today are making indispensable contributions to the war effort. We pride our- Pcge 8 F. L. SCHLAGLE President of the National Education Association Superintendent of the Kansas City, Kansas Schools since 7932. selves upon our schools but the blunt truth is that in many regions and at many points our educa- tional program is utterly inadequate. Three mil- lion American adults have never gone to school, 7579 have not completed high school. At least 600,000 men have been reiected by the armed services for illiteracy. Selective Service reports that 5,000,000 registrants are not physically fit to assume their responsibilities as citizens in war. illiteracy, ill health, and emotional instability hinder our progress in peace as well as in war. America cannot afford to permit these conditions to continue. Areas of educational neglect are fer- tile soil for discontent, degradation, and demagog- uery. As a nation we have ample resources to provide an adequate educational training for all. The United States must ioin with other na- tions in international planning and organization for education. lt is unwise and unsafe for one or a few nations to educate for peace if other powerful nations at the same time educate for war. That was the story after World War I. Our State Department is now conferring with other United Nations on the role of education in post- war planning. Principal J. F. WELLEMEYER, Ll.D. Principal of WyandoTTe High School dnce i924 Dean of The Kansas CiTy, Kansas Junior College dnce 1924 ln The presenT days of sTress and sTrain, we will do well To pause and consider iusf whaT This High School means To us, To This communiTy and To The naTion aT large. IT is The purpose of This arTicle To seT forTh briefly, iusT whaT we mean when we speak of This school. WyandoTTe High School is noT a mere build- ing, fine as ThaT may be. IT is noT a series of class rooms. ITs ouTsTanding characTerisTic may noT even be iTs well qualified faculTy or iTs 2,000 sTudenTs. WyandoTTe High School is a greaT insTiTuTion, com- bining all of These elemenTs and many more. For over fifTy years iT has been in The forefronT nafion- ally, in all greaT movemenTs in secondary educa- Tion. Our conTacT wiTh This insTiTuTion has been during The pasT TwenTy years. During This Time The insTiTuTion has emphasized and developed The following plans: a high school educaTion for all, as a minimum, a differenTiaTed curriculum To meeT The needs of all, an emphasis on vocafional Train- ing, sTudenT guidance and placemenT, physical fiT- ness and healTh, and finally, masTery of funda- menTals. Of course, The mosT imporTanT of all aT The presenT Time, is Training To meeT The presenf na- Tional emergency. WyandoTTe sTudenTs fare all over The world, fighTing in The fronT line for The ideals for which This counTry sfands. We hope our graduaTes will always be in The fronT line, fighT- ing for high ideals wherever This may become necessary. Thus, as oTher needs arise, iT shall be The Glory of WyandoTTe To meeT Them. J.

CLYDE HUME One of the most important functions of a high school office is the assembling and preservation of a system of records All of your life, your record in Wyandotte High School will be referred to by government agencies, institutions of higher- learning and prospective employers. This includes attendance records which indicate punctuality and regularity, record of tests taken record of subiects taken and your class standing on the basis of grades and the record of extracurricular activities in which leadership and initiative have been displayed. We in the office are keeping your records for future use What we write on these records depends on you. Just a few weeks ago we received an inquiry from a New York City depart . ment store concerning the record of a member of our class of 1902. These are indeed permanent records of great importance to you and to those interested in you. J. Clyde Hume Director of Guidance It is the specific responsibility of the Guidance Department of Wyandotte High School to provide students with the special information which they need in making important decisions. This special information is often about vocations and employment. It may concern further education. It will frequently be concerned with the personality of the student. Aptitude, interest, and per- sonality tests given in the vocation classes to all in the sophomore year, and to others in the Guidance Office as the occasion war- rants, help students understand their own personalities, their abilities, and their aptitudes. Wyandotte's placement service is a part of the Guidance Department. Through it many students have been referred for part-time work during the school year and for vacation work. Graduates and former students are always welcome to the Guidance Office, and to the assistance of the department in secur- ing information on iobs with career possibilities.

Their appearances included the scheduled concerts by the Symphonic Band, the Symphony Orchestra, and the third annual Music Clinic assembly in which both groups participated. The Clinic enabled many students to receive sectional training from outstanding teachers of Kansas City. Guest conductor for the Clinic this year was N.

Foods Clothing ,ll Library-Offic eizbenfaf .ynfilaecfion Approximately twenty-five senior girls aided prominent dentists in the annual dental inspection, held here in December. After a comparison with last year's records, a decided increase in the number of pupils having perfect teeth was clearly evident. After the examina- tions, which were given in study halls, each pupil was given a dental slip listing corrections needed. It improvements were made, the dental slips were to be returned to the school nurse, with the dentist's signa- ture, and a statement of corrections. This inspection has given many students the opportunity of discovering tauity teeth at an early stage, thereby encouraging regular visits to the dentist. oligfdfy' Few schools can boast a library so complete in every respect as that available to Wyando,tte's student body. Approximately 'Five- hundred students visit the library daily taking advantage of the 12,500 books and popular magazines. lt is divided into three parts consisting of the periodical room, the general study room, and- the reading room. Assisting the two regular librarians are twenty-four capable students who aid in the distribution, checking, and repairing of these books. Teachers and students may visit the library before and utter school. Students' library passes are issued for those who wish to spend study hall period there. MRS.

Boys of the Class of '46 are threatened by the clouds of a war that may soon take them to serve their country. However, many of these boys will find it possible to graduate before they go. The Passing of the Third Floor Back was pre- sented this year. This three act play proved to be popular and a credit to the class. An- other highlight of the year was the reception given for the Seniors in May. The Juniors face the climax of their high school career and we wish them much success. Officers, left to right: Don Jolley, vice-president, Vera Claxton, treasurer, Charles Loyd Holt, president, Joan Gregory, secretary, Mr. Gregory, sponsor. .S70I0A0l'l'l0l 95 This year's Sophomore class indeed should receive congratulations for the work it has done and the honor it has brought to Wyan- dotte. Guided by Miss Louise Timmer, it has shared in every activity. Knowing what is expected of them, they will not disappoint us in future triumphs at Wyandotte. Excep- tional talent has been displayed in assembly programs, in athletics, and in music. This year has been very successful for the Class of '47 and we expect even better achieve- ment in the next two years. Officers, left to right: Lyle Peck, vice-president, Barbara Brown, treasurer, Miss Timmer, sponsor, Joyce Gazin, secretary, Bill Boosman, president. jfedkmen The Freshman class of this year is the luckiest class in Wyandotte. They have three more wonderful years before they graduate. Their first year under their class sponsor, Miss Nelle Cook, has been very eventful. ln assemblies and other school activities much freshman talent has been displayed, and every one is looking forward to big things from the Class of '48.

Page 29 By Caryl Laws Kanine Kennels Under the sponsorship of the Kansas City Women's Service League, a youth center in the Kensington Park recreation building was opened October 28, for the stu- dents of Wyandotte. Very appropriately the center was named Kanine Kennels. Dancing, competitive games, and food were the main features of teen town. Students scrubbed floors and washed windows pre- paratory to the opening. Some of the men of the faculty laid the dance floor, members of the art department aided in painting various figures used in decorating the walls, and the Service League purchased the furniture and sup- plies. A soft drink bar and a iuke box were installed in addition to the pingpong and checker tables. The Service League members acted as supervisors, devoting certain hours each week to the center but the By Barbara Hume operation was carried on by committees of students them- selves. Approximately eight hundred memberships were sold to the students at a dollar a piece and visitors were admitted for a fee of twenty-five cents. The Swingmasters and music students highlighted the opening night and a special Christmas party was given December 22 featuring a Truth and Consequences pro- gram. Bill Roy was chosen to serve as mayor of the Dog- house for the first semester with the Student Cabinet and Alternates composing the advisory council. Don Jolley was elected his successor for the months of February and March, choosing his own committees. Another election was held to provide a new mayor and council to serve the last two months, April and May. Presidents Don Jolley and Bill Roy Carpentering Teachers Page 30 Hearts Game Selling food tickets Parties Parties and banquets made up a large part of the society lite for the students ot Wyandotte. The football and basketball teams were honored by the Kay Cees and their guests at the tradi- tional banquets. The football party, December 'l, was held at the Hotel Continental while the party honoring the basketball team was held at Quivera, April 5. The first all-school mixer of the year, spon- sored by the Girls' League, was held October 27 after the football game with Manhattan. The tea- ture of the evening was a iitterbug contest. By Barbara Hume The Sweethearts Hop , after the Parsons game February 9, was sponsored by the Boys' W Club. The highlight of the evening was the election and crowning of the King and Queen of Hearts. The annual party of the music department was held the last of April. The climax of the social season was the an- nual reception given by the Junior Class for the Seniors. It was held May ll in the high school building.

Meet the gang behind the annual-the staff. Absent from the pic- ture is Mr. Thorp, sponsor, who for the last two years has had his share of sweating it out for the Quiverian. He was always taking a picture -Steve Blum helped him out sometimes. The Quiverian took shape as an eighty page dummy plus a hope- ful light in the eyes of the staff. Joan Gregory and Cecilia Medved came to the aid of the editor, and Janet Gregory became a certified liner after having drawn up the pages for the senior section. Cathy Place, an A. No. 1 artist, wore her pen down to a mere nubbin drawing the division pages that have been a deep dark secret up to now. lrislee Shull and Agnes Sachen did most of the typing and organ- ization work. Proof readers were Doris McMahon and Jeanne Aldridge. Connie Metaxas, Vie Jarvis, Joyce Merritt and Caryl Laws wrestled with the write ups for the Goins' On section. us is quite handy. As soon as senior pictures came in, Barbara Hume and Ruth Etta Maxwell immediately took over as heads of the cutting and pasting crew, a iob that required skill and precision, well voiced by Hume's Just a shade more. On that crew were Jean Spangler, Mary Frances Weaver, Elizabeth Hicks, Mardeen Bolze, Rebecca Davidson, Margaret Jett, Margie McCullough, and Nedra Korab. And then comes the case of that hard working sports editor, one Don Younghans by name, who made the one request, How about a poem? Mr. Tharp couldn't quite see that, much to our relief and Don's disgust. Heh! Heh! Heh! Robert Young and John Scafe are in on the sports section.

Page 34 Pantograph By Doris McMahon 1 Left to right: Jeanne Aldridge, Don Younghans, Warren Liston, Doris Lothman, Doris Wilderman, Mariorie lmler, Bill Northern, Esther Larkin, Doris McMahon. Six girls and one boy faithfully sought, wrote, and edited The Pantograph in spite of shortages, difficulties which beset a small staff, and the loss of two sports editors at mid-semester graduation. Although this has been the smallest staff in years, by hard work, often from two to four hours after most students had gone home, they succeeded in publishing issues which brought praise from readers all over the country. Bill Northern and Warren Liston graduated at the half. Bill entered Kansas City, Kansas Junior College while await- ing his call to the service, and on March 7 left for the Army Air Corps. Warren was called to the service immediately. Mariorie lmler and Jeanne Aldridge got The Panto- graph off to a good start. Semester changes brought Doris McMahon, as editor. Don Younghans, second semester sports editor was ably assisted by Don Jolley, Dick Keltner, and Jim Wilcoxen. Several other cubs with an inherited nose for news also aided. Jeanne Aldridge, Doris Lothman, and Doris Wilder- man became news editors at the half. Second page was edited by Mariorie lmler and Esther Larkin. Dorothy Monahan and Norma Sayre were in charge of circula- tion. Advertising was handled by Candace Ann French, all year. In the absence of an experienced staff artist Harold Conroy, art student, drew the block cuts. A unique special edition featuring servicemen's names and addresses originated from a letter-writing suggestion by Principal J. F. Wellemeyer. The practice of sending free Pantographs to all boys in the service was retained, with approximately three hundred boys receiving the paper each week. This year's staff, under the direction of Miss Irene Newton, placed special emphasis on departmental organ- ization with fixed responsibilities. One of the main highlights of the year was the annual party, given by the cubs, in honor of the staff. Other activities undertaken by The Pantograph included the sponsoring of Scholastic Students Polls, and various Quill and Scroll contests. Honors came to Doris McMahon whose editorial received honorable mention in the Quill and Scroll Magazine. Five staff members received membership in the Quill and Scroll organization. They were: Jeanne Aldridge, Doris Lothman, Mariorie lmler, Doris McMahon, and Doris Wilderman. The twenty-eighth issue rolled off the presses into the hands of 1800 students, over 95 per cent of the student body, climaxing the twenty-sixth eventful year of Panto Producing. Thus, the paper's purpose, to encourage, to honor, and to serve, was fulfilled. Page 35 Debate L'ft to right: Evelyn lzen, Ruth Etta Maxwell, Evelyn Yaffe, Mr. Jensen, Joan Gregory. By Mary Cecilia Medved Boasting the first all-girl debate team in its his- tory, Wyandotte participated in a season which culminated with the Barkingdogs capturing second place at the state meet at Lawrence, Kansas. Traveling to Pittsburg in October, the Jensenites battled their way through to the finals where they took second cfter bowing to Shawnee Mission. The debaters again took second place at Shawnee Mission, being defeated for the second straight year by William Chrisman in the finals. ln the Wyandotte tournament the Bulldogs qual- ified for the finals but withdrew out of courtesy to their guests. Although the team placed second in the regionals, they were invited to compete in the state finals where they succeeded in taking second place. National Forensic League Students participating in speech and debate have the opportunity of becoming members of the National Forensic League, an honor society for those who do outstanding work in these fields. To become a member, one must fulfill basic requi- sites which consist of earning points through partici- pation in the field of forensics. After acquiring the necessary points, a student may apply for member- ship. Students applying for membership must be in the upper third of their class and receive the recom- mendation of the school principal. All new mem- bers are first approved by national officers. After membership is attained, degrees of honor, excellence, and distinction may be earned by con- tinued participation in either speech or debate. Each member is awarded a small key with different iewel settings according to the degree he has earned.

Therefore the Dramatics Club is open to those whose interest lies in any of these fields or in acting. Drama students are automatically members while others are chosen by try-outs held early in the year. Experience, deeper understanding ot the theater, and good times result from the monthly meetings.

He discovers he is the hero of every girl on the campus, except one. Since this girl, who feels that the author is superficial and conceited, is the only one he really likes, it complicates the scene. An amusing situation occurs when the stiffly correct old lady who controls the college finds the author's room full of ad- miring girls, behind curtains and under tables. ln spite of these troubles and a burgilary, the play ends happily. Senior Play eauen gan Mjaif Comedy touches lightened the serious theme of Heaven Can Wait, senior play presented in December. The play illus- trated what happens when a man's body dies before his soul. A prizefighter, Joe, dies in an airplane crash, but according to the books in heaven, his soul is not due there yet. So Mr. Jordan, who is in charge of such affairs, sets off with Joe to find a new body. Joe's soul, temporarily lodged in the body of a selfish millionaire murdered by his wife, rights a number of wrongs, becomes involved in the murder case, and isn't entirely happy. Finally, with the help of Mr. Jordan, he enters the body of another prizefighter. As he realizes the girl he loved as a million- aire still loves him, the play ends with the song Where or When.

The occupants of a dingy London rooming house are shabby, discontented, and quar- relsome. Their sole aim in life seems to be selfish, with no family or personal pride until one day the Stranger comes to rent a room. Slowly and miraculously their lives and personalities change. Stasia, the little Cockney maid, combs her hair and washes her face. The landlady puts no more water in the milk. A struggling artist turns back to true art, and a middle-aged woman puts aside artificiality for her true self. Then the Stranger leaves. But Stasia stands in the sunlight and feels his presence as the curtain falls.

A nina ore For the first time in several years the vocal music department presented a light opera, H.M.S. Pinafore, as their annual production. The story reveals the hardships suffered by the captain who loves a woman socially inferior to him, and the captain's daughter whose lover is only a sailor. This Gilbert and Sullivan operetta was presented in two performances, a matinee for activity ticket holders, and an evening performance. As well as excellent singing and acting, the presentation featured sev- eral amusing dances. ln addition to those with individual parts, the cast included a chorus of T00 voices from the Advanced Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs.

Page 51 M v RON ROBERTS Captain-Center Senior 2 yrs. BOB BROWN Tackle Senior 1 yr. Football By Don Younghans On November 17, 1944, the Wyandotte High School Bulldogs brought to a close a successful football season. The Bulldogs have a season record of 6 won, 2 lost, one tied-an average of .722. lt can well be said that passing was the salvation and the downfall of the Star- buck crew. It was a long pass that gave Central high, Kansas City, Missouri, a 6-0 victory over Wyandotte in the opening game of the season. In the second game against Shawnee Mission it was the fine passing of sophomore back, Don Wilson, to end Don Roberts, that collected six points. Wilson also plunged for the extra point which eventually won the game. Wyandotte was leading 7-0 late in the last quarter when Shawnee scored. They foiled to make the extra point when Lawrence Channell, guard, broke through the Indian line and made the tackle that saved the game for Wyandotte. Again in the third game it was the passing of Wilson, with Bob Mackish on the pay-off end, that beat Leavenworth 7-O. Wilson's pass to Don Roberts was also good for the point after touchdown. The fourth game was the one that the Bulldogs were out to win. Ward! Although the Wyandotte eleven was out-weighed man for man, it went in the game with enough fighting spirit to come out on top of a 19-13 score. It was the fine plunging by Dan Westerman and Don Wilson, effective end running by Bill Roy, and superb blocking by Kite Verbenec that brought victory. Seeming to like the score of 19-13 the Bulldogs went on the next week to beat Argentine. It was only a few minutes after the game started that Argentine led 7-O, DON ROBERTS W. MARTIN L. CHANNELL D.

Ron Roberts, Canine captain, recovered a Mustang tumble that set up a touchdown. Wyandotte came back in the third quarter with a 75 yard drive that sent Westerman plunging over for the touchdown. With the score tied in the last period Argentine again drove toward the goal, but Wilson intercepted a pass on his own 'IO yard line and ran 90 yards for a touchdown and victory. In the next game ot the season Wyandotte battled the powerful Manhattan Redskins to a 6-6 deadlock. Traveling to St. Joe to play Central High a week later, the Bulldogs went on a scoring spree in the last half to win 45-0. Staying on the road the next week the Bull- dogs went to Springfield, Missouri and downed a stubborn team 'I3-O. Westerman and Wilson made the touchdowns. Wyandotte closed the season by bowing to the Topeka Troians 7-O. Duane Hosmann had the honor of being chosen as a tackle on the All-Kansas team. Don Wilson was picked tor third-string all-state, and Ron Roberts was given honorable mention. Each year the Kansas City Kansan selects an all-city team.

The 1944 scores were: Wyandotte 6 Rockhurst Wyandotte 4 Rockhurst Wyandotte 12 Rockhurst Wyandotte 12 Haskell Wyandotte 3 Topeka Wyandotte 2 Kansas State Prison Wyandotte 1 Topeka Baseball By Robert Young Back row, left to right: Manager Richard Mixon, Clay Coburn, Walter Martin, Manager Keith Blessman, Coach Neel. Front row: Eugene Bukaty, Francis Mason, Bill Delich, Ray Vusich, Bud McPherren. Tennis Left to right: Kenneth Medearis, Don Medearis, John Carlson, Dave Nesser, Allen Fowlar. Wyandotte's tennis team this year was made up of five players chosen from the group of fifteen who came out at the beginning of the season. Three mem- bers of the team-John Carlson, Don Me- dearis, and Dave Nesser lettered in ten- nis in 1944. Medearis was also captain of this years team. Helping the boys with tennis during the season was Norman Wil- liams, a former Wyandotte tennis star. High hopes were held for a successful season of play. In the spring of 1944 the Wyandotte tennis team won four out of their six reg- ular meets. Argentine and Wentworth were both beaten twice by the Canine netsters while Topeka was able to win twice.

Besides the usual activities of the Girls' W Club, such as social and business meetings, tournaments, and letter awards, the Girls Athletic Association was organized this year. It successfully sponsored two all-city Sports Days, with Northwest, Central Junior, Rosedale, Argentine, and Wyandotte high schools participating. Each school was represented by two teams. By Jackie Kauffman The first, a volleyball tournament, was held November 3. Wyandotte took first and second place, when the senior team Barnett's Babies, and the underclassman team Up and At 'Em, both defeated Argentine and Rose- dale teams. When the two home teams met across the net the underclassmen with a surprise attack defeated the seniors. Central Junior, also placed first and second in the junior high division. March 9, was the date set for basketball sports day. Captains of each team drew lots for their courts and op- ponents. Argentine and Rosedale, played each other first, and the two Wyandotte teams, captained by Rose Turk and Jackie Kauffman met. Argentine beat Rosedale, and Kauffman's team defeated Turk's team. Winners played winners, and losers played losers, and in the finals Wyandotte took first and Argentine second. Rosedale and Central Junior tied for the title in the junior high tourna- ment. Northwest was host for the softball sports day in April, and Wyandotte concluded the year by having for its third event-an all-city Play Day. Games of all kinds were played and the pool was open. The Swimming Club is made up of girls who are inter- ested in advanced swimming and diving. Fourteen girls passed their life-saving tests this year, four the senior test, and nine the junior test. ln April the club presented a Swimming Demonstration.

The boys had their eye on sports, dreaming of the time when a lucky few of them would carry on the traditions that have always made Wyandotte a hard school to beat. lncidentally, the football team won the state championship that year. As sophomores, we gained the annual distinction of being the largest class in school and found many friends among the new ar- rivals from Northwest and Central Junior. The transition to Juniors was made easily enough. Our Junior Play, Ever Since Eve was as gay as we were. Then there were the mixers in the gym after games. The Kay Cee Banquets came along, but the real affair for the Juniors was the Junior- Senior Prom. ln 1945, we took the about Wyandotte' pose of seniors. The officers elected were Don Roberts- president, Bill Roy-vice president, Arleen Feld- kamp-secretary, and Margaret Meeks-treasurer. Mr. Gray took on the job of class sponsor. Doing things in a big way, as our class has always, the organization of Kanine Kennels, alias the Dog- house, hangout for the gang, was THE thing. ln February, the death of Miss Alta L. Haynes, who had an outstanding record at Wyandotte and was well liked by all, caused great concern and sadness in the hearts of those who knew her. Our team outswam 4 other schools to capture the state swimming championship, holdings it for three consecutive years, a thing which has never I By Mary Ellen Barker Left to right: Margaret Meeks-treasurer, Bill Roy-vice president, Don Roberts- president, Mr. Gray-sponsor, Arleen Feldkamp-secretary. been done before. A committee selected the class rings and an- nouncements. The last of the year whirled with Kay Cee Banquet, Junior-Senior Prom, and then- senior week. Not to be forgotten are the summer school grads and the boys who left these halls to join forces with Uncle Sam. y As the days fly by, we'll be remembering the friends we've made and the teams we've yelled for, and the many little incidents that made life interesting. We are leaving fortified by 4 years of good old Wyandotte. We know that we can meet and conquer the challenges to come as well as our boys have who are in every corner of the world. With the Glory of Wyandotte ever in our memory, we will keep liberty and freedom forever in our minds and hearts. Page 67 National Honor Society Out of Wyandotte's l800 students there are those who contribute most to their school in the related realms of scholarship, service, character, and leadership. The school, in gratitude, seefks to reward this contribution by naming these stu- dents as members of the National Honor Society. Organized twenty-four years ago, the na- tional society today is composed of 2700 chap- ters throughout the United States.

Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make ye free. This is the motto of the Quill 5 Scroll Society, an international society for high school iournalists. The society was organized April 10, 1926, by a group of high school supervisors for the purpose of encouraging individual achieve- ment in iournalism. The organization is backed by America's outstanding iournalists and educators. According to the constitution the students must meet the following requirements: Seated Jeanne Aldridge, Mary Catherine Place, Mary Ellen Barker, Ruth Etta Maxwell, Barbara Hume. They must be in the upper third of their class in general scholastic standing, have done outstanding work in some phase of iournalism, be recommended by the supervisor, and be approved by the national secretary. There are no dues, but, when a student is accepted as a member of the society he pays two dollars. This amount pays for the gold pin and a year's subscription to the Quill and Scroll magazine. ' This year's ten members were nominated by Miss Newton of the Pantograph and Mr. Tharp of the Quiverian.
