ADMINISTRATION The school received a fine addition to its possessions. The amplifying system, plus Bob Kleeman ' s orchestra and the G. A. A. or the Hi-Y as sponsors, made our dances superb. This system also brought a delight to the followers of football and basketball. All players and their numbers were announced to fans, and various decisions and plays were explained. Another addition was a fire alarm system, much more efficient than the bell that was used until this year. As for entertainment, ours has been royal. Among the best were Phillip Lee and his wife, who came to America with F ' red Snite in behalf of China, their war torn country. Robert M. Zimmerman, a deep sea diver, brought many exciting and humorous experiences to the student body. Also very interesting were A. C. Towslee, a secret service man, and Cortez Peters, the world ' s record holder in speed on a portable typewriter. He was later en- joyed by many students on the radio program, Hobby Lobby.

PRES WILCOX Band and Orchestra Manchester College ADMINISTRATION k This year brought to us two new teachers, both Margarets. Miss McMath took the place of Miss Eunice Steinke as the home economics teacher and later surprised the school with a sudden departure to New York and a wedding ring. She became Mrs. Gene Christy. Miss Stanion succeeded Miss WUma Duff as gym instructor and leader of the Girls ' Athletic Association. Of course every one is looking for a way to aid our country in this war, and our school certainly is no exception. Robert Quance introduced the idea of selling defense stamps every Tuesday, thus enabling the students to bank part of their money and buy defense stamps with the rest. The idea spread like a fire, and the school has set up an enviable record. Everyone has a chance to help his country. Mr. Miller is working in conjunction with the defense board in carrying out air raid drills. Page 11

ADMINISTRATION A bit of luck took over and awarded our school the sectional tourney. Tourney week must have been hard on teachers, because students ' minds just seemed to be somewhere else. The Parent-Teacher Association has this year, as in the past, played a very important part in the school. Everyone loves the big school picnic, and it ' s about time they ' re finding out who does all the work. This association carries on student aid in buying lunches, clothing, and books for needy students. This year they inaugurated a new joint system. Instead of each school hav- ing its own meeting, they have combined and also formed a study club in order to go over school problems more thoroughly. Serving the organization this year were Mrs. Quentin Mavis, president; Mrs. Charles Smith, first vice president; Lloyd W. Miller, second vice president; Mrs. Harry Kreider, secre- tary; and Mrs. Maynard Timbrook, treasurer. FACULTY VOCATIONAL SUBJECTS AND PHYSICAL EDUCATION MISS MARGARET STANION A.
