Bonnie Poorman and Richard Coonfield were elected members of the Student Council, while Dee Ann Cal- betzor took care of the Student Council's money. Our dance on October i2 after the football game with the South lienrl Catholic was a huge success and we were all pleased with its results. Many of our boys took part in such sports as foot- ball, basketball and track. We were very proud to think that Bill Karpinski made l3uchanan's varsity football team. Later on we elected cheerleaders to cheer our team on to basketball victories. Most of us took part in some of the school ac- tivities such as Band, Glee Club, Orchestra, Buckhorn Staff, Library Club, FFA, GAA., Junior Red Cross, and Camera Club. Although our Freshman year had a lot of hard work to it, we also had a lot of fun and vve can hardly wait to see each other again next year when we shall be looking forvvard to another year of hard work and fun. -Sharon Forthman Row I: Caryl Antisdel, Freida Price, Rita Stubbs, Lynette Giver, Peggy Cramer, Charlene Pears, Norma Dokey, lean Kane, Pauline Burns, Teretha Bateman, lo Anne l-lushovver, Rachel Bilotti, Sharon Forthman, De Ann Calbetzor.

Under Mrs Snyder's able assistance, this year's PINES Staff got underway in September. We put on our thinking caps and began building ideas for a theme, Several appropriate ideas were mentioned, but the members of the staff finally decided they liked Connie's suggestion Music the best. Late in September, we made the short journey to Emmanuel Missionary College in Berrien Springs, to tour their printing shop, with the thought that they might publish our Annual. We were vvell pleased with what we savv and the contrast was given to the college. To start the sales campaign, members of the staff presented the annual Annual Eollies to the stu- dent body on October first, The program was com- posed of a girls' guartette, which sang a PINES com- mercial, and an eight-piece chorus line, and a skit imitating the television program What's My Line with the contestants being Mr, Elynn's Chamber- maid, Mrs, Snyder's Test-Maker-Upper, and last but certainly not least, a l952 PINES Salesman, The editors wish to express their thanks to Mrs. Snyder and the staff for their co-operation in putting out this year's PINES. f-Joanne Proud CO-EDITORS :::::,,:...,:::.,.,,..,, Connie Converse Joanne Proud CO-BUSINESS MANAGERS ......

Out of fifteen hours at work a week, three are used for the study of mathematics, shop theory and blueprint reading, the other twelve are used for laying out and setting up a job, then making it into a fnished product, Trade School is held from l2:3O P, M to 3:30 P. M. five days weekly. Our instructor, Mr, Runkewich, gets films to help us learn more of the machine industry. We visit the Museum of Science and lndustry once every two years, We also go on field trips to the shops in and around Buchanan. When a boy has completed two years of Trade School, he may apply for a job, such as an appren- ticeship at the Clark Equipment Company, or as a machine operator at either the Hubbard Tool and Gage or the Buchanan Steel Corporation. Several boys have already applied for and received apprenticeships at the Clark Equipment Company and other companies. They are now working under the Co-op Training Program which is also directed by Mr, Runkewich. This year's class consists of fourteen boys inter- ested in definite trades. Trade School helps to de- velop these trades and prepare the boys for appren- ticeships. During his apprenticeship the boy attends class one night a week at school, to further his knowledge of the job in which he is interested. - Cletus Mcliaskle lst Row: Mr, Runkowich, Dean Williams, Orris Luster, lack licams, lop Lutther, Clifford Simpson, Clwlus Mt Kaskle Pnd Row: Gene Shepherd, john Lockey, Harold Snider, lohn Rothluclis, Harold Forhurgcr, Stanley Swank -45- For the second consecutive year Buchanan High School was a member ot the Michigan High School Forensic Association, and once again Buchanan stu- dents proved their interest in learning how to think logically and speak with confidence and correctness in public, Early in the tall, we elected otticers for this school year The results were: Raymond Howe, presidentg Ralph Mitchell, secretary-treasurer.

We stepped under a rose bedecked trellis, through the swinging gates, and into the abeanutifully decorated Moccasin gym- nasium. Silver ailtitninum foil ribbons were laced across the width of the gym, baskets of homemade roses and small picket fences helped to carry through the gar- den rrgtif. On a wall across from the entrance was a large mural, created by Sheila lvlarrs, The seasonal painting was of a spring landscape, which had a lake with swans in the foreground and mountains in the distance. A genuine-looking old wishing well, guaranteed to grant wishes if a penny were thrown into the water, stood in one corner. There was even a pretty bird bath which had roses twined around it. Carl Young's orchestra, which supplied the delightful music, was seated upon a stage decorated with picket fences and flowers. The refreshment stand boasted an awn- ing and the Sophomores served delicious punch and cookies. The girls who served were Jo Ann Rotzient Jo- anne Forthman, JoAnn Merrifield, and Janet Beck. They were attired in colonial style dresses with ruf- fled aprons and caps. The boys who assisted were Dale Schrag, l-larold Foreburger, Jim Burkett, and Danny Smith. They wore knickers, white shirts, and bow ties. Thefestivities continued until l2:OO, when the happy crowd dispersed, never to forget the happy memories of the prom. -Sheila lvlarrs -49..

Solos, duets, ouartettes, and special acts spear- headed the show in what proved to be a most enjoy- able evening for both the audience and the perlormf ers. f Fatt Ouinn ORCHESTRA The Orchestra started out to be an all-string or- chestra, and at the beginning of the second semester a few weodwinds and brasses were added to the group The Orchestra didn't participate in any special programs because almost all of the girls who played string instruments were beginners The girls spent a few hard working hours, and enjoyed the work. -Judy Adolph 53 ---J ocr Bglvo I 7 fJ77V,:vG ,flip 1 MKII '64 3,,f:ffh-4 ' , SFP?- 1f,','-Qfl fxv f 0 SI Ng, '4 ,, Xf ' iv .' - v1 Hfqny-5 ox: Lg Q, CWONS ff A- 1 - 5 . . ko C O 75 ff, 0 SC H 0oL T, Q, X ,,, Vp X Opffvs ZQN X J ,V J Shri Mari, FEPYEHBER JC, -. 50046 ,n 6 '94-an 'el do 0 1, f JM.

Niles, defending champions, St Joe, and Three Rivers were all ranked well over Buchanan, But with a lot ot determination and a group ot boys that wanted to win, Coaches Miller and Burkett set out to build a winning team The Buchananites began the season at Memorial Field with a new out-ot-conterence rival It was a close and hard-tought battle with St Mary's ot Mich- igan City, but the Bucks managed to eke out a t2-O victory, The next game was the tirst test ot what the Bucks could do in the Big Seven, Meeting State l-ligh on Memorial Field betore a large crowd gathered tor the dedication ot the new Dr, Strayer Memorial Score- board, the Buchananites just scraped by with a t3-7 win However, the next week the Bucks went to town against South l-laven on the Rams' home ground and emerged a 27-O victor, The team was beginning to move, but the easy games were over, and next came Three Rivers which has always been tough. The Bucks traveled to Three Rivers to play the role ot Spoiler at the dedication ot the new Armstrong Stadium- and they did just that, lt took great detensive play in the last tew minutes to keep the hungry Wildcats trom winning, but Buchanan won the thrilling hair-raiser 8-7. The next week came supposedly as a breather tor the team before the Niles game, but the Bucks did not look very impressive in their 44-7 victory over South Bend Catholic at Memorial Field, The next week was one during which everyone was on edge, The team was all tired up to beat Niles who also was undefeated thus tar, That Friday one ot the largest crowds in Memorial Field history witnessed the boys trom Bucktown play their hearts out to a much superior toe and come out on the short end ot an iS-G score. The team suttered a tremendous letdown atter losing to Niles and consequently the Bucks took a 20-O lash- ing by the Dowagiac Chiets on the following Friday The team that went out on snow-covered Me- morial Field to meet the St, Joe Bears looked almost like the team that had gone out to meet Niles, There were two incentives that made the team tight as they had tought two weeks earlier, lt was Coach Miller's last game at the helm ot the Bucks, and it was also the last game tor nine seniors, Buchanan scored first but St. Joseph managed to score two times atter that, and then the Bears ran the clock out Again Buchanan proved they had the scrap, but superior strength and reserves proved too much. The game ended t3-6, The Bucks placed tourth in the Conterence, as was the pre-season prediction, with identically the same record as in l95O-etive wins and three defeats. How- ever, to the fans ot Buchanan l-ligh School, the Niles and St. Joseph games cannot really be counted as losses because the Bucks played outstanding tootball in those games Jack Schultz -50- S ,..

Following a vacation, the locals visited Three Rivers and the Wildcats clavved the Bucks to the tune of 53 to 23 Berrien Springs traveled here tor a non- conterence clash, and the Buchanan bovs sent the Berrien club home with a 40 to 36 licking, Arch- rival Niles paid a visit to Buchanan a vveek later and gave the Steffen-men a 5l to 40 spanking, ln the final contest ot the tirst round ot play, the State l-ligh Cubs upset the Bucks 44 to 43. ln the second semester opener at South Haven, the Bucks hit their season hlgh total bv register- ing a Gl to 22 victorv Dovvagiac then motored to Bucktown and tell to a Buck rallv 40 to 34.
