Queenie lay Myers is censured by Scrimmy, Secontine and Goodrich in the faculty's hilarious act in the show, Ed Matus, Lee Hanson and Pete Little render a bit of close harmony during the intermission. A Bit o'f!1e 90? Gold in the Hills. or The Dead Sisters Secret, was this year's show presented for the Washington Group. It was a typical old time melodrama with the beautiful, sweet, young heroine, portrayed by Elaine Neilson: the shrewd, evil villain, Grover Farnsworth: and of course, last but not least, our hero, North Carey. Others of the cast were Father, Tim Reed, Barbara, the sister, Betty Lou Ackerman: Lizzie, the housekeeper, Sally Bucky and Slade, the villain's right hand man, who turned out to be none other than Hawkshaw, the detective, Conrad Burk- man. The show itself contained some very entertaining variety numbers presented during the Bowery scene. Will we ever forget how the men of the faculty came through with their rendition of She's More To Be Pitied Than Censuxed? In keeping with the theme of the play, the audi- torium was dressed in the best to represent the well known Bowery, including the waiters with their long, white aprons and big, black cigars. This show was a smash hit, made possible by the hard work and tireless effort of Miss Ruth Hull and her assistants, Miss Ianet Bainbridge, Miss Lydia Habib, Miss Ioan Meyer, Mrs. Margaret Henderson, H. Ross Scrim- Qeour, and E. A. Hubbard. -Sally Buck ' Me Play? Me mg Hilarious! 'This one word best describes the Baldwin production oi lanuary Thaw, a comedy by William Roos. The play was again under the able direction oi Miss Ruth Hull, who has credited Bald- win with many successful shows. Ianuary Thaw is the story of a New York iamily, who, to escape the hustle oi city life, have bought and remodeled an old house in Connecticut. Com- plications arise when the former owners, believed dead, return and move in with the Gage family. More humorous situations take form when the old couple, portrayed by Carolyn Abbott and Iohn McGinnis, insist on housing livestock in the Gage living room. The unforgettable Uncle Walter, played by Charlie Thomas, adds mental anguish for lack Hemsteger and Frances Ritner in the roles of Mr. and Mrs. Gage. For several weeks, the cast put in many long hours after school rehearsing, but enjoyed every minute of it. Other members of the cast were Betty Lou Acker- man, Helen Hemrning, Margie Vose, Ioyce Thomas, Bob Woodruff, lim Patterson, lack Fontaine, and Bill Buell. Credit goes to Nancy Beck, student director. As part of our Yuletide assembly, Maurice Yenn, assistant director at the Cranbrook summer theatre in 1948, directed a one act play entitled A Toast to Christmas.

Among these are Robin Renfrew, Charles Frederick, Pat Howell, Barbara Hughes, Heather Burn, Marcia Loomis, Pete Little, Betsy Drake, Martha Kraft. The task of co-ordinating the branches of the editorial staff belongs to Pete Little, editor-in-chieig Barb Hughes, associate edi- tor, and Ierry Neumann, sports editor. 24 Peferis' Pbers 4 5 ,sf I li.

Their job it is to make up the budget, contact printers and lithographers, and earn the 3,000 dollars it takes to put out the Piper. Pete Hartsufi, 'Guy Tun- niclifie, and Dick Reilly check over the accounts, one of the many details in their crowded schedules. Without the revenue raised by advertising, the Piper would never be published. Selling ads is the ad staffs chiei responsi- bility, but there are many other tasks handled by this busy staff. 25 During intermission, Mary Halladay and Iere McMi11in, in true Match-Me Hop fashion, chew the fat with Ioan Schaffer and Bud Boynton.

First hand accounts of Russia, the Palestine question, Armistice Day, the exchange assembly, and the honoring of our own students were all a part of the program. Michael McDougall, world famous for his feats as a card detective, gave one of the most unusual programs of the year. Then of course there was the National Honor Society assembly, and we all won- dered who was next to be inducted. Laurels are due the players of the Christmas Play who worked so long and hard. The Assembly Club, under the leadership of Pete Little, enjoyed one of its most successful semesters, and he and the club have surely earned a vote ot thanks. -Larry Young Top Assembhles Early in February, the assembly club, with Ken Babcock as president, embarked upon another suc- cessful semester. Among the programs, we brought three Kings to our stage. All will remember De Tuscan, the Saber King, who, with the help of Richard Grimm, gave a marvelous assembly on fencing. This later brought about the formation of a new interest club. Then we had the King of Corn, Karrell 2 5 ' 2 . u I Q , I 5' 4? . '9 s T r v Fox, who gave us laughs we will never forget. Dr. Tarbell, King ol the Supernatural, took us around the world of magic and startled us all with eyeless vision. Then, of course, we will always remember the aparently gay, but really sad Swing-Out, as the seniors said good-bye to the rest of the school. Yes, the assembly club deserves all the' credit in the world, and here's the best of luck in the future. Masters of the past and present are Tom Goad and Iack Fontaine. Both received high awards in the Fisher Body contest. Suporting their candidates with their music, Gor don Iagger, Charles Tyson, Bob Brown, Ed Smith Gilbert Salkeld, and Roger Iackson enliven the campaign assembly. A mystifying excursion into the realm of sightless vision was taken by Dr. Harlan Tarbel. ,T .. up ci V' L LL' ' 1 ,lt., t 1 , V ll - . A I 5 .

Left halfback Bob Littleson evades an Acorn tackler and goes 35 yards for Birmingham's second score. Maple players are Colin Campbell C727 Walt Bodle t407, and Captain Clayton Ioyce. Bystanders for Royal Oak are Cliff Sadler t377, Bud Potsch 1277, Don Ioynson tl7, and Manley Wilson. Fullback Colin Campbell moves in to down Acorn halfback Roy Leet i157 for no gain. Mat little Some of the boys on the squad had never seen it, although all of them had heard about it, five long years ago was the last time anybody from Birming- ham could brag that it rested in the trophy case. At long last, the best Maple football team in ten years brought the Little Brown lug back to Birmingham. The oldest high school rivalry in the State of Michigan offered the winner of the traditional Thanksgiving Day game a trophy, the Little Brown Iug. The idea for the jug as a symbol of hard fought victory was introduced by Royal Oak in 1924. This suggestion was gladly accepted by both schools, and the trophy has since been awarded to the winner to keep in his trophy case until the school's team is defeated. Before the teams had even stepped onto the tieid to start the 1948 edition of the Turkey Day game, the experts were predicting the best game ever played, Royal Oak was champion of the Border Cities League and rated by many the best Acorn team in 15 years, while Birmingham, the underdog, finished in second place in the Eastern Michigan League. The Maples were outweighed ten to 20 pounds per man and were conceded little chance for victory. The dopesters, however, did not count on the fast Maple line and the speed and elusiveness of the backfield. From the opening kickoff Birmingham dominated play, and there was little doubt who would win. The Maples pushed the big Acorn team up and down the field, shoving across two touch- downs and making two others which were called back. The only regret the team had was that more Brown Jag touchdowns werent scored. The Oaks' vaunted passing attack was smothered. Winning six games and losing only two, the team played like champions in seven of nine games and dropped two after leading all but brief minutes or the game. ln the Mt. Clemens Bathers, the Maples met the preseason favorites for League champions. Birmingham played topnotch ball and downed the Bathers 3lf6. After the Bathers were beaten, East Detroit became League favorite. The Maples again displayed their supremacy, defeating the Sham- rocks 26-O. Playing their last game for Birmingham was a string of seniors and a junior or two. Led by all- state guard and Captain Clayton Ioyce, the boys realized a long ambition in the victory over the highly publicized Royal Oak eleven. Bud Carten, Dick Murray, Warren Rouse, Fred Tewilliager, Colin Campbell, Walter Bodle, Lee Hanson, Bob Littleson, :ind Rollie McGinnis finished their high school ath- letic careers as every Birmingham football player hopes to do with a Turkey Day victory. To say that the boys arrived at perfection by them- selves would not be true. The school, the commun- ity, and the team pay tribute to Coach Vincent Se- contine who worked long and hard to make the 1948 team the best drilled and best all around team that Birmingham fans have seen in many years. He and his boys, triumphing over inexperience and almost insurmountable odds, turned in a workmanlike job and earned the highest honor we can pay a team. --Duke Layland Captain Joyce Captain and right guard Clayton Ioyce led the Maples to the best season in ten years and earned his All-State honors.

Liflleson R- McGinnis L- Hanson l 4 ,f A look af W9 Coach Vincent Secontine starts his third year as head football coach in Birmingham with the opening of the 1949 gridiron season. The outlook for another successful season is more promising than it was at the beginning of the 1948 football year. Led by captain and right guard Bob Hardy a team composed of eleven returning veterans could be fielded. Mac Booth and Howard Liverance at ends, Dean Berry and George Bosworth at tackles, Gordon Crawford and Captain Hardy at guards, and Ken MacQueen at center would present the opposition with a line potentially as strong as the forward wall of 1948. ln the backfield Coach Secontine will have Bud Boynton at left halfbackg he is a boy that shows promise of being the greatest halfback since all-state Hugh Mack. Dick Mott at quarterback, lack Nicholas at fullback, and Chuck Ganley at right half round out an all-letterman backfield. Lettermen from last year's team are big and fast. They will help to make another speedy and aggres- sive team. Chuck Baker, Mac Booth, Dean Berry, Dick Mott, and Tom Maxwell are expected to come through with the form that earned them their letters. Starting center in 1948, Ken MacOueen is an all around football player. ln 1947, Ken went out for football and earned a place at left end on the var- sity. Bob Hardy was elected captain by the l948 squad because of his fine play at right guard and his ability as a leader. The '49 team plays Monroe Catholic Central for the first time in the history of the two schools. Along with this new foe, the Maples play the regular league schedule plus the all-important Royal Oak game. The 1948 team brought the jug back to Birmingham, and it is up to this squad to keep the prize trophy in Birmingham. Bottom Row: B. Carten, L. Hanson, C. Campbell, C. Ioyce, captain: D. Pearson, F.

Burkman The Birmingham harriers, operating with only two returning lettermen, paced their way to a better' than-averagesseason. Their record for dual meets was two won, two lost. After they dropped the first two meets by lop- sided scores, Coach I. Iay Myers set the boys to running a gruelling four miles a day. This strategy paid off when the harriers took the League meet. This is the first year that cross country has been a League sport, and Birmingham will have the honor of inscribing its name at the top of this revolving trophy. The most unusual meet of the season was a tri- angular one with Walled Lake and Cranbrook at Cranbrook. At the crack of the starting gun a driv- ing hailstorm started and lasted the entire race. A few boys had to slow down to defrost their glasses, and others tried running backward. ln this meet Birmingham took second behind Cranbrook for the first time in many years. A team of seven men was sent up to the state meet, and over a slippery track managed to bring home a ninth place. This year's lettermen are Captain Iiin Patterson, Ken Babcock, Conrad Burkman, lack Fontaine, Ted Haper, Ierry Neumann, Pete Plumstead, Iini Phillips, Frank Weaver and Manager Dave Walker. Of these lettermen five will return next year, so Coach Myers should have the nucleus of a good team. 'sf 'tu-W Coach I. Iay Myers Q 2 A .... , 1' l' ' .

The Maple swimmers met only two teams in dual competition that gave them any trouble. In the first encounter with Mt. Clemens the Maples emerged victorious 48-36, and in the grudge affair after the league meet, the Maroons again proved their su- periority 4935. The Maples' only other real dual competition of the season was Trenton, but the Maroons won 47-37, the tenth straight victory for an undefeated dual season. The Birmingham's only competition in the Eastern Michigan League swimming meet was Mt. Clemens. But the Maples were first with 78 points and Mt. Clemens second with 65 points. Maple league champions were Dick Dean, breast strolcey Bob Webster, backstrokeg Ted Harper, l5O yard individual medley, Chuck Marshall, diving: Webster, Dean, and lack Adams, 150 yard medley relay, Gene Walrath, Neil Stoll, Bill McCortney, and Dick Helgeson, 200 yard free style relay.

East Grand Rapids won the Class B title for the second year with 57 pointsg Adrian was second with 25, Ypsilanti Central third with 2l, and Birmingham fourth with l9. Webster was elected captain of the team.

However, it's the conventional thing for yearbooks to take that backward look and refresh the reader's memory. This is not such a hard task in basketball: for who could forget the thrilling hard- wood season of l948'1949? ln their debut, the Maple cagers showed fans they would have a team of which to be proud, defeating the highly publicized Hamtramck team 53-39 in the pre-season tournament at Mt. Clemens. As the Guard Dick Murray outiumps Port Huron's Don McPhail C703 as Maple Bob Folin C663 and Big Red Alex Goetze C443 waits for rebound. Duke Layland C683 passes the ball to forward Bob Littleson C653 to start the fast break. Skip Halpiri C703 and Pat Wall C713 start for Port Huron's basket. Lysle Smith C333, Alex Goetze C443, Bill Gorinac C773, and Ben Smyth C603 try to break up the play. ffm! Was . . . Cosmos were' ranked high by Detroit sportswriters, the upset gave Birmingham the spotlight. But the next night the Maples dropped a tiqht one to Port Huron 35-33. In the pre-league contests the Maples steam- rollered their opponents by lop-sided scores, only to drop their first league contest to Ferndale 35-33 with lack Crittendon dropping in 15. But the Maples snapped back, knocking oft all opponents, including their nemesis, Port Huron, the game which was curtains for Rosie and Dick. The season was marred by another close one lost to Ferndale 41-38, but the Maples cleaned up all league opponents by comfortable scores till the last Port Huron game: here a crippled five, riddled by illness, dropped a 38-32 game and lone leadership of the league. But they played their best game oi the season at East Detroit, two-time conqueror oi Ferndale, winning 53-35 and sharing the Eastern Michigan League championship with Port Huron. The Maroons breezed through the district tourney, smacking Centerline 50-30 and Shrine 32-21. The regionals were the same story, lvlelvindale falling 31-21 and Holy Redeemer 38-28. But in the most heartbreaking game of the year, the Maples lost to River Rouge 30-29 in the last three seconds of a game in which they had led all the way. lt was clearly a case in which the best team did not emerge regional champion. A full team oi seniors and senior subs ended cage careers in '49. Stars that will not play again for Birmingham were Bob Littleson, Dick Murray, Bob Folin, Skip Halpin, Duke Layland, Clay loyce, Pat Wall, and Bill Downey. Bob Folin and Skip Halpin were elected co-cap- tains of the team. Bob was high-point man and all- league and all-suburban selection, with all-state honorable mention. He collected 258 points for the season. Skip led the squad in freethrow percent- age with .667, making 38 of his 57 shots, and was second high in total points with l70. --Pete Hartsurt Seated: Dick Shallberg, Bill Wilkinson, Paul Phillips, Ken MacQueen, Tom Nalle, Pete Plumstead, Gordon Crawford, Ed Matus.

This paraphrase fits the 1949 Maple track and field squad perfectly. Heres the parade of championships: Eastern Michigan League Regionals Central Michigan Relays Wayne Relays State Runners-Up ln the freezing weather at Mt. Pleasant, the Maples outscored Coach Cooper's old home town Greenville by 20 points. The Birmingham shuttle hurdle relay team bettered the old Ypsilanti time, doing the distance in l:0l:8. The Maples next entered the Toledo DeVi1biss night relays. Competing in Class A, schools of 1,700 or over, Birmingham placed seventh out of eighteen schools. Rollie McGinnis, was still pole vaulting at midnight, and the team got home at dawn May l. Birmingham copped the Eastern Michigan League title without much work. The nearest rival was Me Champions and Ferndale, 19 points behind. Bill Hickman set a new school record of 4243.2 for the mile in this meet. The Maples topped River Rouge in the regional at Ferndale by 40.6 points. lt was here that Bob Folin encountered Torchy Scullen, Parochial Leagues publicity pet, who did the hundred in 110 flatuffin newsprint. Bob beat him twice in the 100 and 223 yard dashes that day. At the state meet Bill Hickman set a new school record when he ran the mile in 4:4l.8. limmy An- derson high jumped five feet 9V2 inches. With 28.7 points, the Maples placed second to Ypsilanti's 40.1. After the regular season the Maroons took the Wayne Relays, and the traveling trophy came back home after an absence of five years. The squad swept by topheavy scores all dual meets that were not postponed because of wet weather. -Guy Tunnicliffe First Row: Coach Cooper, 1. Yates, P. Abbrecht, B. Hickman S. Smith, 1. Goodwin, B.

The recipient of the trophy is determined solely on performance at the State meet, Bill winning with teammate lim Anderson a close second on perform- ance in the high jump with 5 feet, l0 inches. Hick- man's performance broke the school record set by Frank Wangberg in 19427 and the following week he set a new league mark at 4:43.2. At the University of Michigan last fall Bob won a gold shoe and kept his shirt in freshman cross country. The center photograph shows the Maple slam finish of the 220 yard dash at the Regionals at Fern- dale. All season the Maple sprinters had heard and read of the track prowess of Torchy Scullen who was supposed to be burning up the city's cinders at St. Charles. Irked by the publicity, the Maples de- termined to cut Torchy down to size when they met him at the Regional meet. They did just that: Bob Folin, Dick Murray and Ioe Ross, the only boys any- where near the tape, have Birminqhcnn across their chests. Bob Folin, top Maple sprinter the past two sea- sons, is back on the blocks this spring for his last season. A consistent winner all last year, Bobbie had his best day at the Regionals when he won both the hundred and the 220 yard dashes in good times and anchored the qualifying 880 relay team. He also came through when the chips were down at the Central Michigan Relays, twice coming from behind to win both sprint relays.

Dashman pole vaulter, hurdler, high jumper- that's Rollie McGinnis, most versatile man on the track squad.

In the huge DSV1lblSS ' ' ' ' lt Relays, Rollie tied for first place in the pole vau 'long about midnight. His biggest day was the Re- gionals when he was the only triple winner, with first places in the pole vault, the high hurdles and the high jump, sharing the latter only. Hes still around, making track history. Meet Captain Bob Littleson, who led the Maple track team to the Eastern Michigan championship, the Regional title, and the runner-up position at the State meet, to say nothing of the Wayne and Cen- tral Michigan Relay championships. A hurdler by choice, and a good one, too, Rosie was also a sprint- er of ability and a broadiumper on demand. When- ever a fast 880 relay leg was needed, Bob got the call. Trying the broadjump for the first time, Rosie ' ' h and consistently improved throughout t e season reached his peak with the winning jump at the Re- gionals. However, his first love is hurdling, and he holds both the high and low timbertopping records in the Eastern Michigan League: he also matched the Pierce Field mark and placed third at State. At the Central Michigan Relays he broke the record with a :15.7, but the record could not be allowed because of a tailwind. However, he anchored the shuttle hurdle relay quartet which set a new record. Rosie graduated in Ianuary with a brilliant record in foo.- ball, basketball and track. His ability, determina- tion, and leadership will be missed in Birmingham athletics. 65 Captain Al Monrroy f X ll . , fi First row - K. McQueen, G. York, G. Burdick, D. Kelley, A. Monrroy, M.

Opening the season against Cranbrook, the Maples showed plenty of offensive punch as they banged out ten hits, with Clay loyce and Mugs Rouse each collecting three apiece. In this contest the Maples came out on top 7-4. ln the first league game of the season, Birming- ham met Mt. Clemens and took this one in a thrill- ing ten inning game. ln the return at Pierce Field, Birmingham was shut out l-U even though Al Monrroy allowed the Bathers only one hit. Failing to hit in the clutch brought about the Maples' down- fall. Loading 7-4 in the sixth inning, Birmingham looked like a sure winner against Hazel Park the next week, but the Parkers took fire in the sixth and tied the score. ln their half of the seventh, the Maples scored one more run and then staved off a Hazel Park rally to win 8-7. The following week the Parkers came to Pierce Field and were soundly trounced l8 3 on Al Monrroy's six hitter. As always, Ferndale proved to be a stumbling block to the Maples, who fell 4-O on the Bailsplitters' home field. Ferndales Winters allowed the Maple batsmen only four hits. Coming to Birmingham for the second encounter, Ferndale was defeated 2-l by Al Monrroy on a four hitter. Clay loyce, Bob Saffell, Mugs Rouse, and Walt Bodle supplied the needed hits in this contest. At Port Huron the Maples gained a two-run ad- vantage in the first inning but soon lost it through their own errors. Port Huron won this contest 8-7, outhitting the Maples 12 to four, and later coming out on top 9-5 in the return engagement at Pierce Field. The i948 spring sports season was a very success- ful one for the Birmingham Maples, and baseball was a prime factor in this success. For three years the Maples had been the underdogs in Eastern Mich- igan League competition, but in 1948 the Maple nine finished in third place. A break for Coach Secontine, however, was a letterman to fill every position. f--Warren Rouse This year for the first time in Maple sports history, the baseball team has good looking new Warm- up jackets. Here they are displayed by Walt Bodle, Pat Wall, Skip Halpin, Chuck Ganley, and ftop rowf Lucius Iackson and Clayton Ioyce. Coach Harold Newcomb Birminqham's 1948 tennis team won three and lost five. But this record isn't as bad as it sounds as the Maples had no returning lettermen. Harold Newcomb began his first year as tennis coach. -C. A. Thomas Bottom row: H. Parks, G. Emery, R. Beebe, C.

Cgk 0 ,. 51 9' I' and Golf The 1949 golf team has lived up to early season expectations and has come through when the going was tough. Most members of the squad are juniors with the exception of Al Fremody, a capable sophomore. Chuck Olin and Ronald Israel, only returning let- terrnen, have jockeyed with Fremody for the Num- ber 1 spot this season. The entire squad has set as its goal the surpassing of last year's record. Coach Iohn Simonds has put in many hours with his golfers, and he hopes for the payoff in a good season. Members of his squad reporting early last spring are lim Buchanan, lim Milford, Brad Kemp- ton Larry Miller, George Clarke, Dick Shallberg, and Carson Dalton. This year the golfers had a great advantage over previous teams in that they had a home course. Through the generosity of the club, the school team was able to play all home matches on the North Hills course and to use it for practice Without charge. s-Ierry Neumann he .1 f.

Each year, this award, established in 1930, goes-to the best student-athlete. Although not very big, Bob went out for football this year and made the first team. He played the left halfback position and established a Birmingham school record oi four touchdowns in one game, play- ing against a strong Mt. Clemens team. I-le made all-state honorable mention. ln basketball, Rosie was very aggressive and also a good playmaker. ln his three years ot Varsity basketball, he made 231 points, a very good record. l-le was also a fine defensive player, usually being assigned to the toughest man on the apposing team. Rosie stepped into the lineup as soon as football was through and matched the skill ot the boys who had been practicing since November 1. After basketball, Bob Went out for track. This is considered his best sport. He was very versatile, usually entering in tour or five events. He stepped the hurdles, ran a leg on the relay team, broad jumped, and could win the dashes and high jump creditably. Rosie was exceptionally good in the hurdles, and holds both league records in them. He also has tied the school record tfor the high hurdles. He anchored a record breaking shuttle hurdle relay team at Central Michigan and had smashed another hurdle record: but it was not allowed because oi a slight tailwind. Bob also was a three letter winner in track and was elected captain of the team, an honor which he really deserved. Bob had a B average in the three years in high school and was awarded a scholarship to the Uni- versity oi Michigan, where he will be a freshman in September. Johnson Memorial Wlllhff u 2 My 0ar 0wn Wim? W o Some schools elect beauty queens or name their good citizens, or designate their most popular. But here, it's a tradition to name our own Who's who. Usually in the half dozen chosen there are beauty, citizenship and popularity. For this student-conferred honor is not lightly awarded or lightly regarded. Who's Who started with the first Piper in 1935, and has become one of the most coveted honors a senior can hope to attain. Over the years the composite judgment of the students has been excellent, and rarely is the final choice criticized. The first nominations are made by the senior English classes, every one named being considered in nomination. Then a preliminary vote is taken, with each senior being permitted to vote for only six KEN BABCOCK--Ken is a quiet boy, almost shy, you might think. But he combines a will-to-win with industry and ideals: and in this senior year he has come into his own. Space won't permit a listing of his numerous activities. A few of the big ones are his presidency of the Assembly Club after three se- mesters of service on it. He is a member of the National Honor Society and served a term as vice- president of the Student Congress- One of the best ever, says Mrs. Darling. Not confining his activi- ties to the indoors, Ken has won letters in cross-coun- try and in track. He has his plans all made for college. Though quiet, hardworking and unassum- ing, Ken is definitely a big wheel. Someday We'll be saying, l knew him 'way back when . . . LEE HANSON- Leader is a title that fits Lee Hanson, since, in every field he has entered, he has distinguished himself. He has won two letters in football, one in swimming, and has been out for track. ln addition, he has found time to work on the Assembly Club, the Varsity Club, and the Student Congress, serving as president of the latter and of his senior class. Lee's excellent singing voice has been heard in the variety and minstrel shows as well as in the choir and barbershop quartets. Lee has also served as Master Councilor of DeMolay. Lee is one we shall never forget and that we expect to hear more of in the future. BARB HUGHES-Coming over from Barnum as a sophomore, Barbara didn't waste any time getting into the thick of things. She has been in Student Congress all three years, either as an active or an honorary member, and not a dance has been given without her original ideas for theme and decora- tions. This year she is associate editor of the Piper and won election to Quill and Scroll. Barb was four times a delegate to the Eastern Michigan League Conference, proving her leader- ship. She also served a term as president of C.T.A. Best of all, she is cooperative and pleasant. Her ready smile and winning personality will be missed next year. candidates. From this preliminary ballot, the final ballot is made: it has the name of every senior who commanded a minimum of 25 votes. The final ballot lists the names of the candidates who have survived the preliminary vote and, with the names, gives a complete record of the activities, service, etc., of each student. After the final ballot is made up, all students vote for the six candidates of their choice. Only six students may be elected each year: no order of voting is ever made public, and no runners-up are men- tioned. Who's Who has become the most envied and cherished honor given to seniors. The six chosen for 1949 are on the following pages. PETE LITTLE-Let George do it! No, Pete Little's name isn't George, but jobs needing expert and con- scientious attention ultimately find their way to him. His activity record would fill a card file, and his academic record is among the best. This part of his high school career was recognized by his elec- tion to the National Honor Society and his selection by the Harvard Club for the annual award for out- standing student achievement. He is editor-in-chief of the '49 Piper: served as president of the Assembly Club: and is president of Club D. I. F. R. Pete has done many things for love of his school. Now in his senior year, for the love of Pete, let the school show its gratitude to him! DICK REILLY- Shure, an' it's the luck o' the lrish that brought Dick Reilly to our school - his luck and ours! His genial personality made him a natural for sales manager for this '49 Piper. Perhaps it's also what got him elected treasurer and vice- president of the Assembly Club, chairman of the senior dinner committee, and president of the l949 Washington Group. He also served as chairman of the traditional Royal Oak exchange assembly, foot- ball field announcer, and clerk of the course for home and league swimming meets. But Dick has not spread himself too thin, for he has a good scholastic record, is a member of the National Honor Society, and holds a place in the top ten per cent of his class. LARRY YOUNG -- What makes a real Who's Who? lf it's popularity, scholastic ability, or activ- ities, Larry Young deserves this honor, for he pos- sesses not one, but all of these characteristics. He has proved his leadership by becoming Con- gress president and vice-president of the Assembly Club. He's also a member of the Varsity Club. His scholarship was recognized by his election to Na- tional Honor Society. Plagued by wanderlust, Larry seeks new interests far and wide. He was assistant director of the Min- neapolis Red Cross Conference and a delegate to the San Francisco national convention. Larry's school record could well be labeled mission ac- complished.- gb in 2, A gi 3 5 Tv, .Sf if x 51536 Nw' -QV V-ff ' 4 p-av-on A .-5, mi , 1 - s - is I ,gun 4 , , L4 h E ' -1osoNv??

SNK ks. 011171 and Scroll Election to Quill and Scroll, international honor society for high school journalists, is one oi the highest honors attainable for a high school student. The member must be a senior in the upper quarter of his class. He must have done distinguished work on publications such as editorials, sales, business and advertising. The students are recommended by the faculty adviser of Baldwin Publications to the headquarters of the Society at Medill School ot Iournalism at North- western University, where the final selection is made. For writers, samples of published work must accom- pany recommendations. Those students elected this year were Betsy Drake, Pete Hartsufl, Barbara Hughes, Dick Reilly, and Pete Little. The Publications Honor Award is a comparatively new award which is almost equal to Quill and Scroll. lt is given to the students who lack just one qualification needed for Quill and Scroll such as length of service or scholarship. These students must also measure up to high standards and must have done excellent work on publications. Guy Tunnicliffe was the student who earned the award this year. Me National Honor Socfkffy Qne of the most highly prized honors in s?hool is the recognition that comes with election to National Honor Society. Although many students work for this goal, few attain it, for the national constitution stipulates that only fifteen per cent of the senior class and five per cent of the junior class may be elected to the society. Membership is based on character, leadership, scholarship, and service. The Birmingham chapter does not consider anyone who does not have at least a B average. ln addition to a good scholastic record, candidates for the Honor Society must have a creditable standing in extra-curricular activities as evidence of their service. An important function of the Society is the semi- annual induction ceremony. After the initiation, new members are honored at a luncheon at the Community House.
