The Girls Chorus is an organization which meets two periods a week and is open to any high school girl interested in singing. No previous training is required. The objects of the organization are to learn to read music, learn to appreciate good music, to be able to present con- certs, and to sing for the enjoyment the girls themselves may obtain by participating in such a group. From the large group small ensembles and a contest chorus are selected. During the past year the entire group has participated in the Han- cock County High School Music Festival, and the annual Christmas program. Smaller groups have entertained local and rural organizations and have participated in music contests. « I� BOYS CHORUS First Row: Jim Marshall, Tom Thompson, Ronald Leonard, John Thompson, Kenneth West, Miss June Leick (Director), Sill Lane (Accompanist), Norman Rice, Merle Aleshire, Dick Biery, Baker Campbell, Jim Mullen, Second Row: Larry Troute, Leland Walker, Richard Baxter, Mel- vin Wetterick, Richard Ketchum, Paul Baxter, Jim Forsythe, Charles Main, Jack Lovell, Charles Worrell, Norman Heany.

Here they encircled the traditional bonfire and had a hot pep meeting. Friday dawned a beautiful clear day perfect for the parade which was held at one o'clock that afternoon. The procession was led by three twirlers, one majorette and mascot, the band, and the student body. This was followed by the queen candidate car and faculty cars. Last of all came the sixteen floats each representing a class or club. The winners, announced later at the dance, were first, F. H. A.; second. Senior Class; third, Girls Chorus. Our football game under the lights that evening was with our oldest ri- val, Hamilton. We routed them by a final score of 21-6. Everyone happily hurried home to get ready for the last lap of Homecoming—the dance. The climax of the evening was the crowning of Queen, Lila Weinberg, by Baker Campbell, president of the student council. The attendants to the queen were Coleen Seigfried and Joan Drew; the runners-up, Donna Bettlsworth and Joan Hansen. The crowd dwindled as the evening sped on, thus leaving us at the end of, not just another, but rather a perfect Homecoming.

A tap on the shoulder then brought them back to reali- zation and they turned to find WILLIAM BRUITS offering his service as head porter to carry their bags to the stateroom. Looking over the schedule for the day, they decided to take the especially conducted tour of the luxurious liner, the S. S. Leaky Bottom, directed by GLEN WHITE. As they reached the recreation hall, they paused a moment to watch the athletic director, JIM SCOTT, tench a beginning class in the finer arts of Schuffle Board. Eeing delighted at seeing another old classmate, they stopped to chat and learned that LERO RHODES had just sold his farxa and is going to devote his tine to professional pool and found that DOROTHY r t'0Tro had re- cently accented the position of a social worker among the Laoolanders, , • . f 4 • . • • 4 • • • 1 1 • • —A— ■ ■ � ■ — 9 • • 9 • 9 J . -T .4 _ ■ T— • r ■ • 1 « • .... — - — • . • • - —‘ - - . - - - —- I • A - — - - ■■ - — - 2 • • — • • - - ♦ - —■ 1 - . . . — - —— — — - ., - • ;; ■■■■ r a T [t -_ ridding ,,CCOr,TY'’ adieu, they continued on their way.

After studying the menu o rei ally, they decided on ITeufchotel Fondue (otherwise knov n no hamburger with onions) and diverted their attention to a familiar-’oolcing cou e directly at their right. j twinge of gray and a hearing aid did not orevent then from re cogni ing their teacher and former class sponsor, T'r, ::h:BROtto. -I, d ancing witii his still attractive wife.

They inquired about the whereabouts of Miss C .LLUuN, their other sponsor, and learn- ed that she is still teaching shorthand. Instead of teach- ing the worn-out Gregg system, they have adopted the Harris system introduced by none other than Mrs, RTCIL.RB ITRTR RJT the former HJVr ILiRHL H,-.RRIG.

Kenny had often said this was his life ambition. He and Sank walked arm in arm into the large soacious narior and there sat down to talk things over. He said he had been keening in touch with the members of their class since graduation and h.ore ore some of the things he told him: ROBERT SCHNIEDER (a second Peter LorreM is now working on his new nicture, entitled The Hash-House llystery.” JOAN SPONGIER, after taking anti-fat and nerforning other fruitless attemts to become thin, decided merely be- ing thin is not the greatest thing in the world and that be- ing a tight-ro xj walker is far more nrofitoble. DONKA BETTIS TORTI’ nas just been chosen q.ueen of the I'ardi Gras that is held in New Orleans, and we also learned that JO tP DRH7 has been affiliated with the DONALD IL.RRISON Den- tal Company and is now moueling dental olites. Her slogan is There’s no rinsing; there’s no wiping. Ilrs. Baxter entered the room and succeeded in oersuading her soouse to accom any her on a shopping tour to select her new trousseau. ''’heir first stop was at the shoo of 1 ademoi- selie 20J.EKH I THGPRrOD, an exclusive designer of Prench origi- nals. Her most competent milliner RIOT PD PIER”’, greeted then at the door and lead, them on e tour through the shoo. It Is nlain to see that Dick is still carrying the torch. Wishing then success, they ventured onto the street once again and there they sow a figure in u little black robe. Her long hair was screwed-up in a little black knot and she was ring- ing a bell. It was SALLY CROWDER who has given up all fol- lies of youth and become an industrious worker In the Solva- tion Army, They dropped a few cents in her kettle. lust than a large sign Davidson’s Pharmacy caught their attention and they strolled through the tiiick plate glass doors and set down on the plush-covered stools at the soda fountain. DON MABRY, looking trim in his soot less uniform, recognized them at once and asked to treat them to his snecial, a lemon coke. They sot calmly sinning the nectar and gazing around at the lavish furnishings. The uick, precise movements of a bald little man at the back of the store brought them to realize that they were sitting in the store of none other than DIOR DAVISON, who has made his second million in the drugstore business. He came rushing toward them with outstretched firms. After conversing for a few minutes, he handed them a cony of the Hancock County Journal headlined by the following— Opera Star to Harry Millionaire.” It seems that MARILYN CURLESS, young prima donna, '. ho made her debut with the Metropolitan Opera Company this season has announced that she is to marry the premiere of Greenland, known to us as EUGENE BRAEENSIEK. Her dream of marrying a rich man with a title has come true ut last. Turning to the snorts page, they noticed that a large football ame is scheduled between Illinois rtate and Craba’V'le .Junction. Crabanple .Junction is for out scorinc Illinois due to their wonderful coacn, FAKER OAHPPELL. He with his deep voice also leaus the choir of the local church. It also fe?jtureu a picture of a large group of peoole gath- ered around a crumpled form who had ,just arrived in Chicago from Can Francisco on a cross-country hike. It vus RONNIE HARRIS who had .just broken all previous records. The edi- torial rage was headed by a thesis on How to Peel a Penana by editor, CHESTER NEFF. On the opposite page, they obser- ved that something new had been added, namely a comic strio written by a famous twosome COLEEN MOSLEY and DICK TIIOIllS. I believe they call it The Sawdust wins. A small soot on the bock cage was reserved for foreign affairs-- An old- fashioned bullfight is to take place in Oreasertown, Hexico. Ilany people will be interested in this fight especially when thev hear that one of the toreadors is LEON STONEKINO. He v has been in this vocation for several years and is now an ex- pert at dodging. He began his training in high school and it has served him well many times in the arena and the natromon- ial bureau. The soda ,iurk, Hr. Mabry, politely interrupted and in- formed tnem that in a lonely little cottage in the Borneo Islands lives JOAN HANSEN. She is gathering material for the Truu Confession magazine and has become uite famous in her profession. He also told them that a benefit concert was to Vu neId ..t London Music Hall with the faned 7TLLIAM LANE us guest pianist. Deterxained not to nss uo the oooortunity of attending his dynamic concert, they secured instructions as to how to get there and started anxiously on their way. He was well received by a large crowd and lived uo to their ex- pectations. As the crowd thinned out, they made their way to his dressing room whore they comlixaented him on his superb performance. Someone burst in the door shouting ,THow in the world are you, and they turned to find tne one and only JAMES C. MULLEN. He talked hard and fast as he only had ten minutes before starting duty as the bartender at the Swank Might Club. Bidding Jim a fond farewell, they nohtinued.. their conversation with Bill. They inquired about another musician, BONNIE KNIGHT and found that she is well-established in the music world as a soloist and instructor. She is now operating her own conservatory of music on the crest of Dub- lin Hill in Ireland. They then returned to Gordie’s Mansion, where they sr ent the remainder of their visit. The day of farewell cane all too soon, and they reluct- antly oacked their clothes and orenared to leave. mhey se- cured reservations on ROY LARSON'S nrivatoly owned sen olane and immediately flew back to the United States landing on the coast at Miami, Florida, They went froxa the olane to the dock in a motorboat. On the way they heard a ”voo-hoo.’ and turn- ing quickly saw MARY 7ACHTEND0RF on a surf board being pulled through the wat- r at a terrific rate of spec:’ by a rowboat manned by DauRELI iIURPHY, Reaching the dock, tl trolled down the boar •'walk admiring the long sandy beach when they happened to spot ROARS ..CQUIGG anu LUCILLE KC'.VD sunning, then- selves. They learned that they are now working as secretaries under the employ of mutual life Insurance. As they hated to end their journey without learning the whereabouts cf other classmates, they first ashed about IVAN I.oURPHY. They learned that he and RAYEA w'HEWELL have been making an extensive tour of the country lecturing on personal experimentations in poultry raising. Lucille, running her fingers through her sunburned hair, mentioned the need of a hair resser, remarking that she must arrange an appointment at bilady’s balon, owned and operated by FREDA driOVal and her manicurist LIL.. TKARP. Farther up the beach they encountered i'.ARY ’.EAR striking a pose for ELDON HARRELL, photographer for Look magazine who is selecting the June cover girl. Up- on talking to Llary, they learned that GRETj. EDV.a.RDS is ser- ving in India as a missionary and that BLREADIEE C0E3T0CE is operating a baby-sitting agency in Plymouth, Illinois. To rest for the remainder of the trip they made their way to the hotel to relax before starting on the cross-country train trip home. As they passed through the lobby, they stopped for a moment to chat with DOB GUI.TIL'G recently pro- moted to Vice-President in charge of the hotel’s cuspidors. They entered the elevator and were whisked to their tenth floor suite by an elevator boy of long-standing’, DICE WELCH. Wearily they sank down, in a comfy armchair, closed their eyes only to dream that they were back in good old C, C. H. 3. living over thoir high school days.
