Pla wriqhts SUSAN CUNNINGHAM, Editor and Designer of the original cover of the 1911 and 1952 Cotton Blossoms. The Production Staff, realizing that a season's success in show business depends on a popular hit, de- cided to have a play specially written. Selecting a skilled and dependable staff, they asked for a play depicting school life of IQSZ. The editor and sponsors outlined plans and each department launched into its specific work. The busi- ness staff devised ways of making money. The art staff conveyed themselves back to the Gay Ninetiesn to sketch appropriate illustrations. The literary staff racked their brains for ingenious ways of writing the script. At last in the mad scramble to assemble all phases of the play, the staff worked furiously to meet the deadline. Iiditing the Cotton Blossom was hard work, but after all - it was fun. 8.- SUSAN CIQNNINGH XN1 ANN DILLMAN HARRl1iTT HAWKINS DICK RICHARDSON RALPH CLAYTON lfAc:Ul.'i'v ADVISORS LORENE CUNINGHAN1 Prntlulzhnn Staff The success of any productlon depends on proper management and effectne d1 rectmg In the product1on of School Rex ue of S2 we haxe been most fortun ate m haung these requ1rements Our school board xnterested ln xoung actors has proxlded for us the best propertles scenery and dnrectors possnble Mr R Nl Pleree supermtendent and his .lssxstant Vlr Chlrlesl Kosser Pl'lI'lL1p.ll haxemln aged our produetxon wnth efflclency I h1s twentx four years of experxence as chxef manager 'Vlr P1erce has added many sal uable features new methods and modern equ1pment thus keepmg our school p to date Thls progressneness has estab lnshed for us an AAA ratmg as Cli1SSl6Cd by the State Department of Educamon LlRL15 r rlnL'P1l SPR Rose t f1o OI Sllper intend It KSC-lfgdj cnt I KOS BOARD OF EDUCATION Left to rnghr Xlrs Luke Van Kusdall, Nlrs Tom Nlarleey, Paul Horner, Byron Nyard, R Nl Pnerce, Wrllxe Lhaffm, Charles Ross 1 A V I x ' ,R s v - , - - If v 1 as v a x , 1 1 V. x I In 7 x , ' ' , ' l '. . . 1 . , ' ' -s , ' . . .

In whatever field they have specialized, whether in fine arts, practical arts, content subjects, or physical educa- tion, they have coached the members of the cast untiringly. These play directors have spent hours with their characters, hearing their lines, suggesting improvements, and rating their progress. Quite fre- quently, as a reward for their persis- tent efforts, the instructors detected budding stars appearing in the cast - future actors who will some day be in the limelight. Socimi.

What's your father's occupation? Thus the endless stream of questions poured on as Miss Taylor filled out registration cards. After the files were completed the di- rectors studied our records and assigned us classes. No matter whether we were an amateur, freshman or sophomore, or an experienced actor, junior or senior, we were anxious for school to begin. Hurrying into the office, we pur- chased our books from the school secre- tary and hastily thumbed through the new pages. Busy, happy students, rushing thru the freshly painted halls was a good sight to us. And here we were, laugh- ing and smiling, while greeting old friends and making new ones. As the old library bell rang off its summer coat of dust, we quickly grabbed our books and hurried to our first class. It was good to be back! ctllne - - - Scene l We Became Enlightened Bubbling with enthusiasm and with first-of-the-year best intentions, we stu- dents of C.l'l.S. stepped into the limelight September 3 to begin our first act in the school drama in our classrooms. Having chosen our subjects to meet the require- ments and our desires, we gradually ab- sorbed enlightenment from our study and our teachers. And as we neared the end of our four year course, those of us who had applied ourselves realized that we had been fortunate in receiving adequate foundation instruction for almost any fu- ture career - college, business, agriculture, industry, Hne arts, or homemalting.

We will now hear the treasurer's report. What! You mean We're out of money again! . e These and other familiar statements were heard often in our organizations this year. School organizations played an important part in student school life, and every student felt the influence of the extracurricular ac- tivities. In these organizations, students learned to lead as well as to follow. They, working together, provided for all students one of the fullest years of activities and ac- complishments in the history of our high school. On the pages following are pictures and stories of our varied organizations. To these i we salute and say, Good work. Well done. Bands, parades, posters, cam- paign buttons, bally-hoo, elec- tioneering -- all are the prelude for the big day, the day of the student president election in C.H.S. Here, amid the bal- loons, the band, and the many campaign posters the student body listens as President Clay- ton introduees the candidates and their campaign managers.

Thus the endless stream of wails and cries poured into the S.A.C. The two main barriers to the paper were surmounted in a meeting of stu- dents and faculty members. Mr. Roberts agreed to be faculty sponsor, and the school board offered to finance the paper. Editing the First issue was hectic and confus- ing for the staff, but somehow they managed to de- liver it on time. This issue was followed by twelve other editions.

Fidler, the band, mixed chorus, and girls' glee club progressed far this year and the school, as well as the public, benefited from their many appearances. During the busy year's schedule, the band gave unusual shows at the home football games, played at all basketball games, led all pep rallies and parades, par- ticipated in the merchants' Christmas parade, J. C. Day, Red Cross Drive, the National Cotton Picking parade at Blytheville, and the Christmas parade at Jonesboro fHere they tied for first place as the best bandjg presented a concert for the Red Cross Benefit, and played for Easter Sunrise Service. The mixed chorus, while not quite as active as the band, gave a Christmas assembly, attended the Quad-State Music Festival at Murray, Kentucky, and the Southeast Missouri District Meet, helped in the commencement program, and performed for several church and civic groups. Both the chorus and girls' glee club participated in the operetta, Rio Rico. As a fitting conclusion to the year's work, all three music groups joined in present- ing an outstanding concert during National Music Week.

In some drives we opened our hearts and dug into our pockets to help those less fortunate than ourselves. In other drives and campaigns, we contributed time and work rather than money. We are proud of our results in the following: The Freedom Crusade netted S227.00. The March of Dimes Drive resulted in the amount of S89.43. The Junior Red Cross Drive was successful. C.H.S. students fought cancer by contributing generously. Students gave SI80.00 to support Christos, un- der the Foster Parents Plan. In the Needy Children Christmas Toy Drive, goo toys were collected. An S.A.C. Clean-up Drive was supported. The yearbook subscription drive sold 253 sub- scriptions. The Hobby Show drive resulted in 53 student hobby displays. Patty Taylor, joe Franks, and Tommy Thompson admire the banner won bv their home room in the Foster Parents campaign.
