SHUT NOT YOUR DOORS “Shut not your doors to me proud libraries, For that which was lacking on all your well-fill’d shelves, yet needed most, I bring, Forth from the war emerging, a book I have made. The words of my book nothing, the drift of it everything, A book separate, not link’d with the rest nor felt by the intellect, But you, ye untold latencies, will thrill to every page.” Walt Whitman’s “Leaves of Grass” Starting with first name, reading up.

In spite of this disheartening start the Trojans rallied in the league games and were tied for second place in the conference. Being defeated only three times, twice by La Junta and once by Rocky Ford, the Trojans showed great spirit throughout the season. The Trojans were powered on the line by Dillow, end; Iwahiro, tackle; Cook guard; Benson, center; Brookshire, guard; Ramsey, tackle and Curley, end. The back-field consisted of Jay Nicklos, Marion Warner, Jack Nicklos, Larry Pearson, Roy Sakai, Dick Archuleta, Harold Hamblen, and Sammy Consonero all doing an equally good job. Next year’s prospect for the league championship looks promising though the line will be hampered by the loss of two veteran all conference guards, Joe Brookshire and Oliver Cook, supported by veterans Iwao Iwahiro and Wendel Ramsey, also leaving this year. Jay Nicklos, ail conference back and signal caller, will be back next season to spark the team, and perhaps lead them to victory. Other good backs to be on next season’s squad are Consonero, Hamblen, Pearson, and Warner. Warner, after being jinxed by a bad ankle most of the season showed a brilliant display of backfield i unning in the late season. Good prospects for next season's line are Trimmer, Curley, Lowe, Dillow, Ben-r.on, Morrow, and many promising Freshmen and Sophomores from the “B” squad. Many good players were plagued by injuries and were unable to see much action. These included Jack Nicklos, Harold Hamblen, Roy Sakai, Marion Warner, Dick Archuleta and Sam Consonero.

The “B” squad line-up this year was as follows: Robert Crabtree, end; Dean Hopkins, tackle; John Shenk, guard; Bert Zimmerman, center; Joe Wight, guard; Jack Christensen, Tackle; and Bob Benson, end. The backfield consisted of George Archuleta, Jim Gallentine, Junior Costner, Richard Taylor. This is the first year for these boys, and all show great possibilities and prospects for coming years.

The little Trojan team fought its way cut of the cellar and wound up the season in an undisputed third place. The Trojan team was sparked by little George Powell with his brilliant display of ball handling and magnificent shooting at the forward position. Another “small but mighty” Trojan was Roy Sakai with his beautiful passes and ball handling at the guard position. Others of the sta ting five were Harold Hamblen, Larry Pearson and Iwao Iwahiro. Pearson and Hamblen were the “handy andys” of the team. They were always good for a basket when one was most needed. The other members of the team are not to be slighted. They were Ivan Curley, Ben Benson, S. E Dillow, Dwight Canfield. These boys saw much action and showed great promise of being future stars. Though the Trojans will lose three good players — Sakai, Powell and Iwahiro—the prospects of the next season look bright. Curley, Dillow and Benson, three fine players, shou'd steer the Trojans along with veterans Hambien and Pearson toward the league championship. Dwight Canfield and members of the “B squad will also be there to boost the Trojans toward victory. s. E.

The typing student, if he has followed the direction of his capable leader, Mr. Kester, has learned much typing that will be useful to him in later life. With an extra large enrollment in typing this year Mr. J. D. Kester started the school year out the right way and never faltered from that path. The typing classes are divided into two groups, the beginners and the advanced group. This course is optional and is offered only to Juniors and Seniors. The typing I classes have had much emphasis on the right techniques of typing such as the proper posture and correct finger work. After the typing I students became accustomed to the key board they were started on speed and accuracy drills with many of them showing much talent. The typing II students, who were already familiar with typing skills, started out on budgets. From time to time extra MECHANICAL DRAWING The drawing classes started the year in room five. Follow' ing six weeks preliminary drawing and study, the classes moved to the manual training building at Columbian where plate drawings were begun. Three classes were held by Mr. Hicks during the one period —Mechanical drawing I, Mechanical drawing H, and Architectural drawing I. Mechanical drawing I was required to have 22 finished plates, Mechanical Drawing II, 20, and Architectural drawing I, 15. ance of Mr. Hicks, much interest and skill Through the strict and personal guid- was developed during the year.

Regular formal class room work is held on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, with Tuesday and Thursday being reserved for laboratory work. Mr. Moe has taught a great deal of chemistry by using class room films to illustrate various chemical matters. This has added greatly to the interest of the students in the course. AGRICULTURE Vocational Agriculture, a four year course offered farm boys who intend to make farming their vocation, is a practical course. The boys devote about one half of their time in the farm shop where we'.ding, farm carpentry, soldering and auto mechanics are taught. The remaining time is spent in the class room where students learn the new and practical practices related to raising livestock and crops. All students are required to carry a supervised farming program on the home farm where tney apply improved me-ih.-ds of farming. AUDIO-VISUAL EDUCATION Mr. Moe has done a great deal in improving and promulgating the idea of audio-visual education in our school. The showing of silent and sound motion pictures in the class rooms and field trips has enambled this work to be carried on nicely. PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY Under the instruction of Mr. H. M. Thurston the physical grography class, composed of juniors and seniors, has been given practical knowledge about the earth’s e'ements and the atmosphere. In addition to a knowledge of geology the students of this class became familiar with the various rocks and minerals of this region. The class had made a large collection of rocks and minerals which will be valuable to the school in years to come.

The first half of the year, was spent in cooking. The girls learned how to prepare a breakfast, a luncheon and a dinner. The last half was spent in sewing. Each girl was to remodel a dress, make a garment for someone else in the family, and make something for herself. Outside of that, each girl must complete two home projects, be- fore school is out, in order to obtain the credit for the course. The girls have done a great deal of work in the kitchen. They cleaned everything thoroughly before they started cooking. ☆ SPEECH This year the speech classes, under the instruction of James Dighera, were offered on a yearly basis rather than the traditional semester basis. The speech classes, handled informally were taught the various aspects and techniques, of public speaking. The students were familiarized with discussion techniques, debating, dramatics, choral reading, and radio broadcasting. In addition speech students learned about the voice organs and how they operated in the production of sounds. Also discussion groups were taken from the classes and were sent to various civic or- ganizations to discuss problems of interest to the groups.

President ............... Barbara Hoffman Vice-President ........... Joyce Taliaferro Secretary .................... Joann Smith 'treasurer ................... Betty Brown Early in the winter, the Girl Reserves sponsored a carnival for the purpose of raising money for the annual G. R. Spring Formal. Margaret Tull was in charge of arrangements for the carnival, and the food used at the carnival was donated by the members of the organization. Various types cf booths representing everything from kissing booths to fortune telling booths were seen there. These booths were constructed by the girls. The Girl Reserves Spring Formal under the chairmanship of Dorothy Ann Martin was held on March 19. The gymnasium became converted, by the girls, to a “Candle Light Cafe”-—the theme. Orchid and white streamers were used in the ceiling, and as one entered the terrace, tables placed around the gymnasium with lighted candles on each of them could be seen. To further carry out the theme, the programs for the event were done in orchid with “Candle Light Cafe” printed on them. Music for the dance was furnished by Doc Lively of La Junta, Colorado. The Girl Reserves have had a very program this year. On October 16 and November 13, plays and play scenes were presented for the girls by the dramatics class; four fine worship programs arranged by Jane Gregg, were held since last fall; talks of all types were given to the girls; musical programs at various intervals were held throughout the year; and Mr. Dighera presented a play review, “The Glass Menagerie.” The organization has contributed money for support of the United Nations Relief for Needy Children, Red Cross, State Y-Teens, and the Cancer Fund. A food sale under the chairmanship of Helen Miller and Margaret Tull was held on April 17, and a tea for mothers on May 10 concluded the year’s activities for the Girl Reserves. Alvena Shenk, serving as chairman for the mother’s tea, had charge of the arrangements for a lovely :.nd ever-to-be remembered tea. Margaret Tull, a member of the Senior Girl Reserves for three years deserves a great deal of praise for her unending cooperation and high quality of work while with this organization. !

Debate this year was started as a club and then developed into a very startling organization. The debaters debated in many different meets and held their own in some pretty fast company. The major meets of the year were the ones at La Junta Junior College where no decisions were made, the Pueblo Central invitational meet where Las Animas tied Centennial for second place, and the last meet of the year was the Southern Division conference meet at Pueblo Junior College where Las Animas placed third behind Pueblo Central and Centennial teams, composed of third ..nd fourth year debaters. The first two teams, composed of Harley Hobgood and Bon Nell Webb first aff., Georgia Mae Boyd and Lucille Onorati first neg., Norma Watson and Lulu G; scoe second aff., and Don Johnston and Eiil Kenworthy second neg., won debate letters for their outstanding work outside the classroom. Ruth Wight should have much praise for her outstanding work because she had to fill in twice at the last minute due to sickness of regular debate members.

The Junior class entertained the members of the senior class and faculty at the annual junior-senior prom and banquet on May 8. The banquet was held at the Palace Hotel early in the evening followed by the prom held at the high school gymnasium. The drabby old gymnasium was converted into a land of enchantment and dreams by the use of a false ceiling done in dark blue in the shape cf a big star overhead. Filling in the empty space between the star were strung white streamers. Leading from the south end of the stage to the northeast end were stairs leading to a large star located in northeast end of the gym.

Under the direction of Mr. Ernest Beerends the band had a very successful year. During the football season the band marched for all the home games and several out of town games. The first concert presented by the band was held December 17, 1947. The next concert was held on February 18, 1948, after which a special party for the band members and their parents was held. Several other concerts followed. A concert wes presented at Fort Lyon, this one being the last before the contest on April 10-14. On February 26 Las Animas was host to the first Arkansas Valley sponsored clinic band. And it was also at this time that Las Anima3 was honored by having many of its talented band members participate in the clinic band, composed of over one hundred pieces with seven towns represented in the band. The high spot in the life of the 1947-48 band was the contest at La Junta on April 10 and 14. Bringing home superior ratings from this contest were: Burdette Graves, trombone solo; Doris Ann Turner, twirling; the clarinet quartet; and the woodwind trio. Four days later the band received two superior ratings, one in sight-reading and the other in concert band. These were the highest ratings given to a band. As a result the Las Animas band was placed in the lead against La Junta, Rocky Ford, and Lamar. the close of the contest a parade of all the competing bands was formed and the ;BenJ. County High School Band participated, Doris Ann Turner, Jean Taliaferro, and Doi othy Martin taking the lead.

Co-ordination is a class in which students work outside of school in work projects under the sponsorship of the school. The class, taught by Mr. Pickens, strives to better equip the high school student for the life he will face after graduation. Due to the smallness of the class and the fact that the students perhaps have common problems about their work, these problems can be discussed and a possible solution arrived at in these sessions. It is the aim of this class to better prepare the student to fulfill the expectations of employers in the years ahead. The class encourages the formation of opinions and discussions and helps the student analyze his peronality and see what can be done to improve it. Personality is discussed mainly in the light of its helping to obtain and keep employment of your choice. The student is also kept posted on what other people think, which helps him formulate opinions and ideas. ☆ GLEE CLUB There were two Glee Clubs organized this year. One group met Monday, Tuesday and Friday during activity period. The second group met at 1:00 on Monday, Tuesday and Friday. The Glee Club has sung in assembly at Christmas and at the G. R. Formal.

Evelyn Meyers sang a solo. A triple trio was organized from the 1:00 o’clock group consisting of Margaret Tull, Marlene Myers, Lorna Ridgway, Evelyn Myers, Lila Quarles, Mildred Platt, Nancy Dean, Sheila Murphy, Joan Wright.

He was the kind of a boy who was always doing the wrong thing at the right time. He would be in trouble with one teacher for one thing, and then would really get in a jam trying to get out of the difficulty. First, he gets a date with Barbara to the spring dance; when he asks his mother for money to take her, she will give it to Henry only with the understanding that he makes the highest grade in the history examination. This leads Henry to cheat by copying off the paper belonging to George Bigelow. When the principal is about to expell Henry for his misdemeanors, a charge is brought against him for stealing and selling some band instruments. George Bigelow, the person who stole and sold them, is finally caught. Henry is now cleared of the accusation. Mr. Nelson, the friendly assistant principal, accidentally on purpose gives Henry two tickets to the spring dance. He then tells Barbara that he will take her to the dance if she will lend him thirty cents for car fare. Much praise and congratulatory remarks should go to these students for their excellent job in interpretation and presentation of the roles in the play.
