Hidden Memories Cedar Falls I-Iigh School has its hidden mem- ories tor you through its classworlc, clubs, parties, and associations with triends. You are the one to preserve these memories.

As you loolx through this book remember you are part ot this school lite, you had a hand in this year's success and this yearboolc is your reward. Widening horizons The Senior class is about to march out ot the doors ot Cedar Falls High School and to enter into a world where they must put into practice that which they have stored trom past Iearnings. Another class will talce its place and school lite will continue to go on. The Class ot '40 has participated in school lite to its tullest extent and the patriotism they ex- press will continue to tlow. But now let's close our eyes to the opening horizons and glance into the past and our partici- pation in Cedar Falls I-ligh School lite ot l94O.

T31 BOARD GF EDUCATION The meeting is called The tirst Monday ot every month tinds the Cedar Falls School Board in the high school ottice laying plans tor iurther progress ot our schools. Qur hats go ott to the members ot this board who sacritice their time to malre our school a progressing institution. The board has always been gracious in giving to the school the necese sary eguipment to malce the school year roll more smoothly. People involved Superintendent Peet is the otticial member ot the school board. His advice is commendable in any tield because ot his experience and par- ticipation in many local service clubs such as the Rotary, Y. M. C. A., and many educational clubs. George A. Bairnson, one ot the most etticient doctors in our city, is the president ot the board. Mr. Bairnson has a tascinating hobby ot collect' ing tropical tish and during his spare time his ate tention is directed to caring tor them. QQUOQ Agnes Hansen, secretary to the board, spends her day in the ottice ot the Cedar Falls High School as secretary to the Superintendent. Her ever-smiling disposition serves as a stimulus to every student that enters the otlice. Mrs. Aksel B. Holst is the only housevvite on the board. She talces an active part in many civic proiects beside caring tor the household duties in her lovely home. Harry M. Merrill has been on the board the longest ot all the present members. Much ot his time is spent in laying plans tor the construction ot new homes in this community. D. W. Moss is an active member ot the board. He has an otiice in a local lumber company Much ot his leisure time is spent in riding saddle- horses and rooting tor the local ball teams. George Mach, a World War veteran, is a pro- tessor in the commercial department ot l. S. T. C He is vitally interested in this schools vveltare. T41 cr-M i f sufr ,, ei FEET PRIN. c. c. STANARD THE ADMINISTRATORS Supt. J. H. Peet :ooroinates tne etlorts ot ttie Principal C. C. Stanard is not necessarily loolc- wnole scnooi system. Une ot tiis assets is lwis aloili- ing over tlrie typing. l-le may be contemplating my 6 3 A F. l . . . i. 1 oeacer-and strangely, Mr. Peet the quality ot that table. For the principal ot rea 'err ' sceaficg to an audience. Along ttiis C. F. l-I.

Sunoayf Sccoc, 2 553. -cr THE ADMINISTRATION With unsettled conditions in Europe, Social- scientist Marietta Abell meditates on South America. For Miss Abell is a horizon-chaser. As a successtul author she spends her vacations col- laborating on books. This hobby tinances her ad- venturous journeys. The Greek and l.atin languages have been mastered by Edith Atchison. But when she reads tor pleasure, the book is in English. Miss Atchison contesses that she is inclined toward psychology as well. She likes to study people. John Bliese is not examining a tree although as a maior biologist that would be natural. It is a photographic illusion tor he is really hunting birds with binoculars. A tollower ot Audubon, he takes long tield trips to study the tlyers in their native habitat. Write-ups trom Mabel Benton Brown's musical productions till eight scrapbooks. But when she isn't itat the piano she relaxes by doing house- work and gardening-things she paradoxically wishes she had more time tor. Glancing up trorn a catalog ot musical re- cordings, Coella Correll revealed that she col- lects phonograph discs. She specializes at present in those ot the leading orchestras playing their own theme songs. The picture discloses that Ce- dar Falls I-Iigh School's librarian is also a canine tancier. Mrs. Hiram Cromer is always looking tor la- bor-saving systems and schedules that will make all work orderly. One ot her tavorite pastimes is to attack a chaotic closet and transtorm it into an available arrangement ot supplies. THE ADMINISTRATION Blueprints are ro intricate labyrinth tor R. R. Ebersold ter his wort is to understand them. I-Iis wort is also nis hobby but Mr. Ebersold takes time oti trom wood-worlfing to practice his agility ffitfi rod and reel and gun. Vifeighing in with a championship health rating in fiew, Laura Einspahr tates charge to see that every child in Cedar Falls is aided by good hea th. Most ct her time is consumed in her wort, I-ler remaining hours are spent in di- versitied activities. Whether at a typewriter or guiding a pen in shorthand, Vivian C. Erickson is adept in using her shilltul tingers. This dexterity is employed in her eftra-curricular activity ot mating an atghan which she tirst crocheted and is now embroidering with exquisitely minute stitches. Assistant coach Eugene Fisher divides his at- tention between tishing and golt. Nlodestly un- derestimating his ability on the golt linlrs Mr. Fisher loolcs up trom his paper to remarlc, I be- lieve I catch more tishes than birdies. With the aid ot his mathematics, A. M. Gowan has constructed his own radio set, and is ardently exploring the ether. lncidentally he cre- ates the unusual situation ot a principal trom Cedar Heights, teaching halt a day at C. F. I-I. S. under another principal. Things cliclc when Agnes Hansen is about. In the superintendents ottice it is typewriter teys and etiiciencyq at home it's knitting needles. This secretary uses her nimble tingers in producing lfnitted dresses which are the envy ot the less dexterous along these lines. IVI THE ADMINISTRATION I'IaroId E. I-Iarryman is checlring his accuracy at the commercial class blackboard. Cn vacation he studies strangers. In his mind he decides their occupation, interests and personality. Then he makes their acquaintance to checlc the seldom tailing accuracy ot his deductions. Atter history classes, Blythe Lamme relaxes with her niece who is entertained and entertain- ing. Miss Lamme really considers her Icerchiet collection to be her predominating interest. This collection has grown to include more than a hun- dred hankies, An ardent artist, Mrs. Helen Lentz is inter- ested in all phases ot her profession. I-Iowever bloclc-printing is her annual hobby as each Christ- mas she designs her own cards through that med- ium. Whether she slcetches with her pupils or I 8 , fa W , W Xffk .- . f dabbles in paints, Mrs. Lentz is practicing her hobby. Perched on any vantage point, chiet musician James A. Melichar can be seen screening motion pictures ot his smart-stepping marching band. The completed project will teature the develop- ment and drills ot the organization. R. H. Pedersen runs trom one hobby to an- other. I-lis versatility ranges trom auto mechan- ics to tollr dancing. But he is always looking tor characteristic natural movements that he can use in adding reality to the high school dra- matics. Teachers have no pets? L. E. Petersen has a tavorite pupil-his brown, curly-haired coclcer spaniel. I-le has taught Tony several usetul and intricate triclrs. Tony is an apt pupil and rewards his tavorite pedagogue with pleasure not tound in scientitic or athletic Tields. I THE ADMINISTRATION The plant Margaret Rait, C. Ffs mathema- tician and Girls' Adviser, is watering is merely her winter garden. ln summer she shares the hobby ot the exfprime minister ot England, Stanf ley Baldwin, Both are interested in growing extra- ordinary tomatoes. l-lowever, Miss Rait also deals with producing other vegetables, tlowers, and outstanding vearboots. Supervising The Review as pictured at the Record otiice or in room tourteen is the charac- teristic pose ot G. W. Schantz. A tootball and basketball letterman in school, he still tollows ath- letics. An evening a weet he bowls? his score is consistently good. Coach C. C. VanDyl1e's hobby changes with the seasons. Whatever team he is intent on prof oucing-that is fiis sore interest. During vacaf cr- tions this producer ot champions relaxes in out- door activities but usually there is little time tor any orthodox hobby he might choose. Seeing Paul Weaver intently awaiting 'devel- tography. Lately this commercial teacher a been specializing in portraits but he continu .t tollow all types ot pictography. , il' ! ig opmentsm reveals his primary interest to be f a t-lis ability in woodfworlfing anjf' thiefjimlhl dy handicratts proves tascinating as weEaas lucr t'lJv to Cecil Wreidt. His dexterity en les m to produce hand-made presents. Mr. yr, tis also mildly enchanted by photography. W l-landicratt devotee, Harriett Zlatohlavelc, is seldom seen without some evidence ot her hobby. A knite and a piece ot wood are invariably with her so that any idle moment between physical education classes or while waiting can be put to constructive use. Y'-YL fy g Will.. ,qv ...VJ --cr OUR COUNSELGRS The personnel llBetter late than never, says Koert Voorhees as he dashes into the regular Thursday morning meeting ot the Student Forum. ln discussing a student problem 'Conservative' Betty MacStay and Radical Bob Corning are ott on a tangent and Hester Storey, 'iiust tor the sake ot an argu- ment, has a word to say. Vice-president Gerald Crowell tries to soothe the minds ot his tellow students bv an Qration on what he thinks. Nothing like a disagreement on the part ot James Dunbar to start things rolling. To think that the seniors should have the best seats in the auditorium during chapel is too much tor James. Freshman Ray Thorne holds his own in the are gument, too. Loretta Siglin is 'silent but willing to do her best tor the benetit ot the G. A. A. Howard Briden is 'lslow but sure to see that the seniors are treated tair and sguare. Quiet please Nedra Jane Thorsrud has a word to say, though soon is hushed by the welcome command ot President Betty Bancrott, l.et's vote. Prin- cipal C. C. Stanard, TOId Faithtulf' sanctions all decisions made betore Secretary t-larriette Mct-lugh adds them to the big black book ot minutes. Listening in As an outsider listening in, one can hear much serious discussion by our counseling torce inter- spersed with an outburst ot laughter. The serious discussion is due to the planning and arranging ot activities such as, Freshman Initiation, all school parties, homecoming, and the canvassing tor the Red Cross drive. Qne ,cause tor laughter is the question asked by the treshmen, Who is B B 7 No, I social tunction ot the Student Forum behind closed doors was the torum luncheon at Tally l-lo.

The newcomers tound themselves surrounded by conditions en- tirely ditterent trom their old lite, and particular- ly noticed the abundance ot treedom granted. The ditterent members oriented themselves rap- idly, some becoming spectacular. lt wasn't long atter this new company arrived that it was seen that there were those who had very detinite styles ot dress.

We knew iust what to expect ot one another, and what not to expect. We knew that Kenneth would get straight A's and that Tom wouldn't take his report card home. At this point, we had discovered that the youngest member ot the class is Marilyn l-lotier, and that Bob Corbin is the youngest among the boys. Virginia Clay and Maxine Schwanke are con- testing tor the senior artist honors. The class even has a swimmer in the crowd, tor Romona Olsen has excelled in many swimming meets. Kenneth Thompson, in his senior year, represented C. F. l-l. S. in the state extempore speaking con- test because ot his excellent showing in the dis- trict. It is logical to believe that any Senior Class ot any high school has much intluence as to the running ot the school. lt seems that the Class ot '40 ot C. P. l-l. S. had much to say, because tor the tirst time a senior girl was elected president ot the Student Forum, and this girl was Betty Bancrott. The intluential lad, l-loward Briden, represented the Senior Class in the torum. The class sponsors are ot our own choosing, and we are proud ot our choice, tor they have assisted us through many rough spots. With lit- erary and athletic inclinations, Librarian Coella Correll and Assistant coach Eugene Fisher serve as the sponsors. While we progressed Along the lines ot sports, we predicted ear- lier that Delbert Mully would make a name tor himselt, and that he did, tor he won high honors in the basketball tournaments in his senior year. l-le was a member ot the team all through high school. lva Marie Cook has been able to put her com- mercial training into practice, and as a result has proved a real right-hand-man assistant to Miss l-lansen in the ot-tice. l Marriage seemed to be an attractive step tor one ot the senior girls, and so Mary Luders lett the rank and tile, and went down the matrimonial trail. Photography has become an outstanding hob- by this year, and many ot the students ot our school have had an interest in it. Martin l-lolst has been the leader ot this group. The president ot the Girls' Auxiliary ot the year was Betty MacStay. Marian Rhode won dis- trict D. A. R. honors. Stepping into the commercial world, Paul l-lughes has become an expert dairyman and livestock breeder. What we hope l-laving spent three years in C. F. l'l. S., the seniors are ready to enter other tields. lt's exciting to look into the tuture and see these new tields being developed by our tellow classmates. Many spectators may be thrilled at the success ot Dorothy Buhl as a dancer, and Myrle Bartholomew as lett guard on a tamous tootball squad. ln the nursing tield, Betty l-leiselman will reign and Don Briden as a tamous ping-pong champion. We hope much success comes to the once ambitious seniors, no matter where their ambi- tions lie. Ambitious people like Marilyn l-lotter, Owen Volker, and Delores Robinson will, no doubt, step quite deliberately into the commer- cial world. While people like Tom Marsh, Duane Phelps, and Orville Olson may surpise us yet. Yes, Tom may be driving a Packard some day and Orville may be a successtul tarmer, or a banker, who knowsl And it would be a let-down it Ken Thompson were not a college protessor or a politician ot some kind. Commercial artist, gymnastic teacher, chaut- teur, or whatever the career may be that beckons the seniors, we know their success is partly due to the three years' stay in Cedar Falls lnligh School. Cedar Falls l-ligh will be recognized by all the class ot '40 as our dear Alma Mater. l cr- ! .W ,i.. x 1 3 f Q.. Q 'K 2 lfif PRESENTING SENIOR DAY Dignitiecl uppermen? The Class ot '40 malsing history again! Some- thing altogether ditlerent was put into ettect when the seniors decided to have l-lobo Day and Class Day at the same time. And then, we can have a Sneak Day, says the administration. Senior Day tound the dignitied upperclassmen in costumes ot their tavorite comic strip charac- ters. l-loot Cole and Barbara Wyth donned their Tarzan and his mate costumes with a smile. Ken Thompson was a scream as Little Orphan Annie. Wait till you see Sweet Pea and Clive Gil, who were impersonated by Nedra Jane Thorsrud cr-e and John Galloway, respectively. Daisy Mae won much attention and guess who was she? Nol Why, Delbert Ivlully was! Life begins in '40 Atter the parade, which was led by the C. li. I-l. S. band, everyone rushed to get seats to see the Senior Day pertormance in the auditorium. The program, entitled, Lite in I96O, included musical numbers by talented seniors. Eclmon l-leidemann stole the show with his guitar and piano solos. The curtain was drawn on a successtul Senior Day at I I:3O, tollowing the Funny Paper l:rolic which was in the torm ot an all-school party. , v,, i., 1 fi , '- ..

Romping around in knee pants and short dresses, the kiddies amused themselves by playing Drop the handkerchietu and Ring around the Rosief' Students were not, however, the only ones dressed like little tots. Miss Flarriet and Miss Atchison, sponsors ot the Junior Class, at- tracted not a little attention by their abbreviated skirts and conspicuous hair bows. Sticky tingers and dirty taces were the net result ot the unusual retreshments ot tatiy apples and ice cream. A highlight tor the juniors this year was the choosing ot their class rings. The hub-dub around the trophy case last January was merely the juniors getting a glimpse ot their to-be rings. Atter much discussing, an oval set ring with re- movable crest was chosen. All rings were not entirely identical, however, tor there were gold, onyx, ruby, and silver sets. Theatrical and musical ln March, three one-act plays were presented, The junior actors and actresses who each had a large part in the success ot the production ot these plays are: Eunice Baumgartner, Dick Brown, Douglas Bruce, Bob Case, James Dunbar, Jean Ferguson, l-lelen Jean Flood, Erling Jorgensen, Miriam l-lansen, Daniel McNabb, Eldon Modisett, Dick Nehlson, Angeline Panagakis, and Koert Voorhees. Many ot these juniors also appeared in the last play ot the year, Our Town. Qt the talents, music seems to claim many ot the juniors. Qne outstanding musician ot this class is Margaret l-lansen, who not only is an all- around pianist and accompanist, but also masters the tlute. Other music contestants tor the Junior class are: Eunice Baumgartner, Dick Brown, Bob Corning, Jean Ferguson, Velma l-leuer, Ger- trude Kitchen, Eldon Modisett, Elsie Morris, Dick Nehlson, Angeline Panagakis, and Koert Voor- hees. l 28 Budding? The I94O Junior Class, like all other classes, was not without its share ot romances. Seniors were seen shaking their heads, and on thinking about way back when, proclaimed that there still might be some hope tor these love sick juniors. Helen Jean Kern evidently knows how to win and keep a boy triend tor she and l'Magot have been on the steady list tor over two years. A newcomer this year trom Peoria, Illinois, seemed to have her share ot tough luck. All ot her troubles were connected with a certain senior girl who thought that Kay Voorhees was just all right. Love lite appeared to be somewhat rough tor Dick Brown throughout this year. Both a senior girl and a sophomore girl who he thought were OK, were already listed among the steadies. The crowning event The annual Junior-Senior Banquet is a gala event in the lite ot a junior. Cn this particular evening he plays host to the honored seniors. This year's banquet was held Thursday, May lo, at the Cedar Falls Woman's Clubhouse. The seniors were thrilled when they walked into the miniature night club, designed by the juniors. The theme ot the evenings plans and program was The Grand-opening ot the Top-Flat Club. While the dinner was being served in night- club style, a tloor show was presented between courses. Following the meal, Toastmaster Eldon Modisett introduced an appropriate toast pro- gram. The remainder ot the evening was spent in dancing to the music oi Bob McCabe and his boys. And all was climaxed by the Grand March, which was led by Eldon Modisett and his even- ing's guest. During the course ot the evening, every senior torgets tor a time that he is about to leave the tolds ot Cedar Falls Fligh School, while through every junior's mind goes the thought that next year he will be treated like a king. l A We're- pats together.--Daniei exhibits twie no-point drawing, be must be debatinqf with the Juniors Eating again.-Asaistont Editor smiles.- Hold me tignt, Dick!-Interesting mactwin, What a grin hae Biitiitme sun seems to get ery, girts?iEriinq as ttwe sctwooimasten- tiwonmlitwe Juniors' bottiing beauties pose as Bob. donit tinger your Cords as you speaki- W9 enter ttifi SCGH6- THE JUNIORS AT WGRK AND PLAY crf-A CV CLASS OF I942 Isl Row--S.

SHOv cefQ L UW d-cr I94O'S HOPEFULS Through their busy days School days, school daysl Exciting are the school days tor the sophomores, the class ot to- morrow. Eagerly they tread on to their destina- tions ot work and play. Under the leadership ot their president, Patricia Samson, and vice presi- dent, Bob Barnett, the sophomores are guided through their busy days, with the able assistance ot the class treasurer and secretary, Dorothy Lakin and Carol Barck, respectively. ln this class, like all others, there must be a sponsor. The hon- ored pedagogue in this case is Mrs. Brown. Athletically inclined The sophomore class is proud to present the many outstanding students, each one demon- strating his own ability to the 'nth degree. On the gridiron we tind tuture all-state material. The candidates are Don Bartholomew, Dallas Hurlbut, Carl Landau, Les Tolletson, Bob Holmes, Don Minikus, and Don Dutcher. They can be depend- ed upon to bravely tace the toe at any time. Those with an eye tor the basket must be given much credit, tor they, too, have superior ability. They are Jim Merrill, Don Bartholomew, Roger Harris, Scotti Oleson and Bob Holmes. These boys are great promises tor Mr. Van Dyke's visits to State Tournaments. The girls, too, have their athletes. The outstanding golters are Shirley Ramsdell and Betty Wise. Shirley has entered many contests and has won numerous trophies and awards. Loretta Siglin tollows along in hcr brother's tootsteps, tor she is an excellent basket- ball player. She also plays an excellent game ot kittenball. To boost these athletes on to victory, Margie Leckbee and Pauline Garbar, two peppy cheerleaders, led the cheering section. Musically and theatrically talented Graciously did Shirley Bolton accept the hearty applause she received in the Gilbert and Sullivan operetta 'lThe Gondoliersf' Her beauti- tul soprano voice stole the admiration ot every- one who witnessed the perlormance. Elin Holst, Marvin Easter, and Barbara Eerguson also had l leading parts in the production, not to mention the countless numbers in the supporting cast. One ot the most popular pianists in the class is Patricia Samson. She plays any kind ot music very well, and each piece she knows, she has learned by ear. Included in the cast ot the Pulitzer prize win- ning drama Our Town, there were several soph- omores represented. The maior part ot Emily VVebb was played by Shirley Bolton and Harriet Eagan. Additional members in the cast were Mary Panagakis, Pauline Garbar, Marjorie Mach, Peggy Gattney, Georgianne Bairnson, and Helen Gaer. Hitting the high marks Not only do we tind these versatile sopho- mores shining in athletics, music, and dramatics, but scholastically they are not to be outclassed. Listening in on the world history classes, one could easily choose George Laurie and Carol Barck tor the top rank. Many sophomore names head the list in English. Among them are Patty Samson, Barbara Ferguson, Carol Barck, Evelyn Peterson, Jean Arlene Smith, Eunice Loken, Amelia Opsal, Donnabelle Casey, George Laurie, and Marjorie Mach. Among Caesar's ardent admirers are Donna- belle Casey, Patty Samson, and Eunice Loken, Eighting her way to be the champion speller in the Sophomore Class was Peggy Gattney, who also very creditably represented her class in the school spelling bee. Strutting proudly The baton twirlers who strutted so proudly ahead ol the high school band at all the athletic teats last tall and winter were all sophomore girls. They are Harriet Eagan, Alice Leavitt. Peggy Edwards, and Peggy Gatiney. Their ap- pearances put a great deal ot spice and sparkle in the band's music. The members ot the march- ing band are Jim Merrill, Don VanDeest, Bob Barnett, Roger Harris, Lynn Ellis, Scotti Gleson. and June Ann Holmes. l CLASS OF I943 lst Pow-D. Bloss, L. Frans, B. Doran, B.

As we look at a tresh- man, we wonder whose place he will till when he is a senior. lt's not a simple matter to decide. Some may have hidden talents we won't tind by the time they graduate, and others will be active in tields we don't visualize them in now. As we walk down the hall, John Kadesch rushes past: a tuture debater. We picture speech laboratory ready tor a debate. On one side sits John Kadesch with his colleague, Phil Berg, or maybe it will be Charles Connell. Their opponents, Charlotte Hitchcock and Marsha Jensen. are seated on the other side. Many ot the treshmen have an interest in debate. Wheth- er it is because they like to speak or whether de- bate otiers more color to them we don't know but we are sure that the debate tield will be aid- ed by the interest these students are taking in it. Those who seem to have the desire tor silver tongues are Jerry Jacobson, Paul Nordskog. Keith Petersen, Paul Jorgensen, Richard Robin- son, and Frank Sherman. We can't leave the girls out because they, too, are an asset in debate. Jean Rath, Rosemary Shutelt, Maize Unger, Verna Jean Smith, Marjorie Peterson, Ruth Ann Nielsen, Lois Ann Schaller and Dorothy Kingman may prove a boon to our debate coach. ln the high school roll With the hilarious comedies and tarces, and the tear-drenched tragedies that are buried in the history ot our dramatic productions, we must look torward to our tuture actors. The curtain is drawn on the tirst act. We see Bobby Phelps garbed in an attractive, or at least, interesting costume and with various stage paints applied to mask his tormer selt. Qthers appearing on the same scene may be Don Johnson, Dick Jones, and Ralph C'Brien. We should not tinish our list here when we think ot the outstanding work shown by l 34 the treshmen students as PGST StarS in Jfhelf OWU speech classes. Our hearts were gladdened one rainy April day when the treshmen surprised us with an all treshman program. lt was one ot the most origi- nal programs ot the year and showed the talents ot the Freshman Class. It was tun to see Ray Thorne thrill the audience with his solo and also playing his own accompaniment on the piano. The upperclassmen telt that the treshman deserved a big hand tor such a pertormance. John Ka- desch acted as the Master ot Ceremonies and did a right smart iob ot it. Another member ot the Class ot '43 who proved to be an entertaining pertormer was Eugene Moon. This lad was not much heard ot until he had a part in the minstrel show and then he became tamous as the Freshman Class tap- dancer. Not only the Freshmen Class was proud ot him, but the high school. Cedar Falls l-ligh has its linguists, too. Those who have shown real interest in Latin Classes are Lorraine Johnson, Thelma J. l-lansen, Grace Brown, Mary Wille, and Gloria Laurie. Among them Some ot the all-around students ot the Fresh- man Class are Oscar Johnson, James l-larland, Dwight Peterson, and Leo Christiansen. John Scott is a certain academic wizard and Ray Thorne will paint his own setting as he goes through high school. Our pep band will lead us in many parades and gala events in the tuture. lt the adage it runs in the family means anything, we can easily pick Ted Tostlebe as a promising student in band and orchestra. Other treshmen who enter into this tield with heart and soul are Calvin Mether and Phil Berg. Shall we peer into the crystal ball and tind our tuture athletic heroes? From the present status quo, we can say that John Bigler will tollow his brother's tootsteps on the basketball tloor. How the temale hearts will throb when they see Don Johnson, Jerry Jacobsen, Jim l-larland, John l-lauser, and Ralph C'Brien battling on the grid- iron. While the boys who will throw scores in our baskets will probably be Don Miller, Wayne Min- ish and Jim l-larland. l ffrf --cr ?4O's STAFF Betty MacStay, Sr, editorg Bill Eells, art: Romana Olson, activity, Bill Balcewell, sports, Eleanor Tostlebe, Junior, Nedra Jane Thorsrud, Sophomore and Freshmen: Vir' ginia Clay, activity: Bob Corbin, business manager, Martin l-lolst, photographer: Marian Rhode, editor-ins chiet.

While the tiery rays ot summer's sun still beat on Mother lfarth's bosom Editorein-chiet Marian Rhode and Sponsor Miss Margaret Rait met tor lengthy conterences to deter- mine the policies and nature ot this year's an- nual. Appealing was the theory that pictures tell the story so they decided on the policy which is evident in this volume. Then betore very many weelcs ot the school year had elapsed the sales stati launched its campaign. Enthusiastic boot venders pursued students, teachers, and townspeople alilfe in hopes ot obtaining the desired signatures on the well lcnown pale green pages ot the receipt boolcs. An oversized thermometer on which the progress ot the stati was recorded gained a prominent place at the side ot the venerable timepiece in the upper hall. A P. A. system, uproarious assembly, and rec dancing in the gym served as turther sales persuaders. Meanwhile the stalif Meanwhile the stati ot writers had been organized. lndian Summer, tall rains, winter's snow and ice, slush, mud, balmy spring days, March's blustery days, and April's showers all passed along with the parade ot school events as statt members spent weary hours compos- ing reams ot copy. ln a darlcened closet under the tront stairs, Mr. Raul Weaver and his co- horts, the Camera Clubites, and members ot the photography statl created the myriad ot memory inspiring photographs tound in this registry. Finally the day arrived when all the copy was neatly wrapped and sent to the publisher. Annual editors and assistants stored diction- aries, typewriters, and pens baclx in dusty cor- ners, crossed their tingers and eagerly await- ed the distribution ot the long awaited year- book. Sales stati members toolx new lite and on the appointed day dispersed the atoresaid annual to holders ot receipts. Another issue ot the Red and Blaclc memory register had successtully made its entrance into the world and the year's worlc was tinished tor another tired but happy statt. G. A. A. AND LETTERMEN'S CLUB G. A. A. in costumes Costumed in weird garments and carrying equally weird accessories, approximately 28 mus- cled Femmes marched into the halls ot C. F. H. S. on one bright winter Monday morning. The dresses were worn bacltwards giving the wearer the appearance ot a contortionist. The one pelvic appendage was garbed in a high heeled slipper and anlclet, while its mate was clothed with a well- worn sill' stoclqing and tennis shoe. Wooly bathing suits provided the itchiness ot oldstashioned red tlannels. Pigtailed hair and large wash buclet ads ded to the unorthodox rig, The unsightly creatures bobbed down the halls saluting to upperclass women. Basketball predominated during the winter months. Playing in invitational meets at home and abroad the girls demonstrated their abilities by deteating powertul seitets trom West and East Waterloo. Trie spring program included ettemi- nate tracli meets, ptax-days with neighboring schoos. and the annual party. cr- Lettermen's club Although the l.ettermen's club initiates were less obvious to high schoolers, they undoubtedly suttered tar more than their 'tairer schoolmates. The only outside evidences ot the secret initiatory ritos wore a solid blaclc walnut paddle and I4 wan and worn athletes who staggered aimlessly down the halls and into classrooms where they gently lowered themselves into their seats. Betore that eventtul day in April when I4 gridiron and cage pertormers doubled the mem- bership ot the honorary organization, the athletes ot the 38-'39 season were the only active mem' bers. Eleven ot the initiates received monograms tor turt activities, while only three received the coveted award tor pertormance on the hard- wood. Lanlry John Galloway served as president and Gerald Crowell as his second in command. Paul l-lughes, millc peddler ot note, served as lreeper ot the secretary's boots and pecuniary records. i 371 'T fs PHOTOGRAPHY Camera Club ln Europe little boxes strapped over shoulders are gas masks-in C. F. l-l. S, they are cameras. And the people who carry them?-all members ot the camera club. The C. F. l'l. S. Association tor Amateur Photographers is co-sponsored by Paul Weaver and John Bliese. This is only the second year ot the club's exe istence and as a birthday present the school board purchased new equipment including a Speed Graphic camera, and enlarger, and devel' oping tanks. With the aid ot this material the club has really tultilled its main purpose to supply the annual with more and better pictures. At the meetings, speakers were brought to enlighten and entertain the tuture Ewing Gallo- ways and Margaret Bourke-Whites. l 38 One ot the events ot this year was the con- test-pictures were entered in several tields: posed, candid, and scenery. Prizes were awarded tor the three best in each group. The sweep- stakes winner was determined by popular ac- claim and rewarded. Donated efforts The organization donated its president, Mar- tin l-lolst, as statt photographer tor the yearbook! its secretary-treasurer, Bill Miller, is an assistant with l-larold Sturm. Vice-president Romona Ol- sen and Margaret Wahl are the behind the scenes assets. To tinancially aid the annual, the club has de- veloped and sold packets ot pictures ot team members and enlargements ot group pictures. All club members are given the use ot the darkroom and are encouraged to make use ot the tacilities. Beginners are taught by the ad' vanced members. 1 SCIENCE Alpha Beta Kappa l-lad the ghosts ot Demosthenes and Aristotle tloated through the halls ot C. li. l-l. S. this year they might well have thought that they were back in a kindergarten ot old Athens, tor above the general hub-bub between classes came the un- mistakable sound - Alpha-Beta-Kappa - the Greek alphabet. On hearing such sounds one could be sure that an unlucky Alpha Beta Kappa initiate had been cornered by a tultledged sci- ence clubite. Reciting the alphabetitious compounds in their lapel size wash bottles is not the only re- quirement tor membership in the Science club. To be eligible one must write and present a IOOO word investigational thesis. Conventional thoughts Mfith two groups ot students entering the cluo this year, tne tirst semester clubwork con- sisted mainly ot initiatory work. l-lowever during second semester lignts glowed in the science rooms many a ong winter night as the high school scientfsts met tor interesting talks by local sc'cn:e eaders tor work on proiects tor the Iowa Junior Acacerny ot Science convention which was he o at Mount Vernon on April lt? and 20.

This club made its debut into school lite in the tall ot '39, Since that time this club has won this prosperous state. The aim ot the club is to provide practice ot the previously learned slcills ot the members. Cnly those girls who are interested in the worlc and who come up to the set standards ot scholarshipship, character, and vocational ability can ioin. Every year, at the beginning ot the last semester seven iunior girls are admitted into the club. A school lite advocate Each Monday the girls hold their meetings and at that time have programs suitable tor their group. The members ot this club have done most ot the mimeographing worlc that has been done in our school this year, The club has made its money by printing the ttRotary Reminder every weel tor the local Rotary Club. They also made and sold Christmas card booklets and were cospon- sors with the l-lifY in compiling the students' die rectory. At the time the annual was going to press they were malcing the razz paper tor the iournalimm banguet, l 40 I The otticers ot this club, with their able ad- visor, Miss Vivian Erickson, have made this club a grand success. The otticers tor this year were Bernice Bauer, president, Delores Robinson, vice- president, Mary Eurino, secretary, and Dorothy Buhl, treasurer. Some work, but some play Although the members ot the club spent much time worlfing they have also had their share ot play. The club has had two successtul parties during the year, and at one ot these each girl received as a gitt trom the club a charm bracelet to which can be added charms that the girls re- ceive when they write so many words ot short- hand in a certain time. The year's wort was climaxed with a banguet held at the Tallyeldo. Each girl was a guest ot the club. The theme ot the banquet was t'Ships and the toast program which tollowed the dinner was centered on sailing. The girls will be constantly reminded that they belonged to Alpha Sigma Kappa during the year tor each girl received a year's subscription te iiThe Gregg VVriter, and this will continue to come to them tor some time. ln other words, they have worlced hard but they have reaped success, T PRESS AGENCY Answering who's and what's The latest gossip!

FIRST SEM ESTER STAFF SECOND SEMESTER STAFF cr- l CLUBS FOR SPEAKERS Rostrum Qne ot the seven wonders ot the world! Stu- dents studying out ot school hoursl This wonder may be seen iust by peeking in the speech labo- ratory any Monday evening during the school year. Cn each ot these Monday evenings, they do things lilce preparing debates, learning interpre- tative readings, and schooling themselves in the art ot malcing extemporaneous speeches. That all sounds very well, but to be allowed to do things like that you must maintain a B average in yotr speech curriculum. Rostrum is open to any one who is particu larly interested in speech outside ot school hour-.. This is the sole purpose ot the organizationf-tv help those who want the aid. Mummers Though the name does not imply it, Mum- mers is an honorary organization tor those who l 42 Rosnzum i MuMMERs l have done outstanding work in their high school speech worlc. The membership ot the organization is limited strictly to iuniors and seniors, and, ot course, those who have graduated trom Cedar Falls l-ligh School. Betore anyone can become a member ot this honorary group, they must meet certain set re- guirements. They must participate in two major and two minor speech activities. Also, they must maintain a C average in all subjects tor three six-weelcs' periods betore the initiation. Mr. Raymond Pedersen, speech instructor, started this club when he came here a tew years ago. Although Mummers is not an old organi- zation. its membership is growing more and more each year. Each year at the annual dinner there are more to be welcomed in, and the member alumni are in company ready to initiate them into the group. The annual dinner is the only otticial meeting ot the club tor the year, l ORATORY AND DEBATE Convincing their audience Resolved that the I939 and l94O debate team has done a record iob in presenting their problem this year-that ot the railroads and whether the goverment should own them or not. Betty MacStay and Daniel McNabb, and Mar- ian Rhode and Kenneth Thompson have present- ed their material in such a convincing way that they have all the C. F. l-ligh students nodding their heads in approval. It you were not able to attend all these de- bates, the only way you could get tirst hand in- tormation about them would be to look in the debate scrapbook Kenny has kept this past year. lt, I am told, includes everything about the de- bates, even a picture ot his debating partner, Marian Rhode. Mr. R. l-l. Pedersen has been one very im- portant tactor in the success ot these tour C. F. scholars. l-le has accompanied them on all trips, be it Iowa City or the city ot Perry. Mr. Peder- mv cr- sen deserves a great deal ot credit tor he has worked untiringly with and tor the team. Originality plus Griginal? Originality plus, we should think, tor the topics varied trom Election Day to Woman's Place in the World. Last January, the serious minded Advanced Speech Class were again impatiently drumming their pencils waiting tor inspirations tor their orations. On the night assigned tor the contest, we tound Jean Ferguson proudly displaying the tirst place medal atter unhesitatingly telling us about NA Woman's Place in the World. And close be- hind, Eldon Modisett capturing second place with his Age Old Problem, while last, but not least, is Dick Nehlson tightly clinching the third place medal atter telling us about Brown Amer- ica.

I 44 THE VALIANTN TI-IE WEDDING' Our Town Variety is the spice ot lite. Speechrnaker R. I-I, Pedersen must believe in this ancient adage when he produces a play with no scenery, no props, and no curtains, The commencement play was that delighttul Broadway hit, Thorton Wild- eris 0ur Town. Bill Bakewell was lovable Dr. Gibbs, with Jean Ferguson, his generous wite. Editor Webb's cheertulness was mastered by James Dunbar and Miriam l'lansen portrayed Mrs. Webb with a sharp tongue and a heart ot gold. George Gibbs and Emily Nkfebb were double castedg Shirley Bol- ton and Dick Brown in one pertormance and Har- riett Eagan and Don Briden taking the lead in the other periormance. Other members ot the cast made up a gay wedding crowd, a sad tuneral pro- cession, and some patient people calmly sitting on chairs representing the cemetery. Stage Manager, R. l-I.

Miriam l-lansen and Shirley Bolton shared honors in the presentation ot this musical story ot the early nobility. The plot ot the operetta hinged on the mys- teries and entanglements ot mistalsen identities. ln a picturesque garden scene the girls' and boys' choruses were led by soloists Elin l-lolst, Edna Speers, Barbara Ferguson, Eldon Modisett. l-loward Briden, Marvin Easter, Bob Corning, and Gerald Crowell. Kenneth Thompson and Shirley Bolton and Don Brid-en and Jean l-tills, gondoliers and their wives reigned in trieDucal Palace as one. The plot continues When Diclc Nehlson, Gwyneth Dilger, and Miriam l-lansen arrived at the place complica- tions arose. Miriam, betrothed as a child, was in love with Gerald, the drummer boy. All ends happily when the nurse ot the royal heir an- nounces that Gerald is the real prince. The two gondoliers gladly returned to their menial taslcs and the curtain rang down on the ioytul chorus, Gay Gondoliersf' With impressive sets and elaborate costumes the cast and chorus produced an amazing spec- tacle. Under the apt direction ot Mabel Benton Brown and R. l-l. Pederson, an exceptionally en- tertaining musical production resulted, which brought to the tuli height ot its glory, The Gon- doliersf' ,...l ,,y,,,,,,,, ., i ' ..i,, seffif -ifhxki -cr BOYS' AND GIRLS' GLEE CLUBS Up and clown the scale On entering the halls ot C. F. l-l. S. any atter- noon, the sound that would tirst meet your ears would be that ot music notes harmoniously chas- ing each other up and down the scale. On Mon- days and Wednesdays, the high school pulchri- tude wends its way up the ancient wooden stairs to the auditorium, and on Tuesdays and Thurs- days, the muscle bound sex ascends the aforesaid stairs at the atoresaid time. On Friday, the song- sters ot both sexes exercise vocal chords during the post meridian classes. The tirst proiect ot the year's singers was the production ot the tunetul Gilbert and Sullivan operetta, The Gondoliersf' Under the capable direction ot the master musician, Mabel Benton Brown, the musical drama developed trom a stack ot note-treckled sheets ot paper to a masterpiece ot harmony. Spring concert While winter's snowtlakes still hung in the air, the vocalists started work on the annual spring concert. This year, abandoning precedent, the boys' club took the lead, sponsoring a genuine minstrel show. Through many a long, bleak winter atternoon, the melodious tones ot the beloved Negro spirituals dritted down to languid students. Shortly atter Spring made her debut the show was presented to the public complete with end men, interlocutor, olio, and the appropriate songs. As a tinale to the concert the girls ioined with the boys in the portrayal ot an old-time Negro camp meeting. The spring concert did not end the activities ot the year tor the glee clubs. lncluded in the program tor Commencement week, we tind that music tor Baccalaureate is to be furnished by the Mixed Chorusi that the tinal appearance ot any ot the musical groups is on Commence- ment night, when we will hear music by a vested choir ot all girls' voices. All eligible Because treshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors are all eligible tor membership, the glee clubs constitute the largest and most varied groups in the school. From these groups are chosen the singers who represent C. F. I-l. S. at any music contest and at public gatherings. In this aim, the clubs have been completely success- tul as is shown by the accumulated records ot the C. F. l'l. S. songsters. An innovation this spring is the testing ot voices ot all students planning to be in C. F. l-l. S. next year. Yes, it is a big task, but the purpose behind it is to tincl the best voices in all the school. When this is accomplished, those students selected will be asked to arrange their schedule so as to be able to enroll in glee club. SOLOISTS MAoRieAt i , ctus .-.K C3 MADRIGAL AND THE SOLOISTS A successful season Terminating a highly successtul season ot pub- lic appearances. the C. F. I-l. S. Madrigal club stops to tate a breath and review the past year. The Madrigal c3ub is composed ot sixteen mixed voices, eight boys and eight girls who sing entirely unaccompanied and undirected. Madri- gal singing dates bact into early English history when the groups ot nobility sang these same se- lections at very tormal gatherings. The Madrigal club members were trained in singing by the C. F. l-l, S. music instructor, Mabel Benton Brown. Singing alone C. F. l-l. S. was also well equipped this year with soloists who were really worth listening to. The iunior Miriam l-lansen has won many hon- ors and compliments on her lovely soprano voice. She has had the lead in most ot the operettas since she came to our high school, and has won l 47 the hearts ot her listeners by her gracetul poise and her time clear voice l-leading the list ot the mezzosoprano singers during her high school career was Gwyneth Dils ger, the ebony haired senior. She continues to be a tavorite ot many music lovers. C. l:.'s diminutive Jean l-lills won a superior stand with the students ot our school when she ap- peared betore us as a contralto soloist. Don Briden has thrilled many ot us with his tenor voice. Being a senior, his days ot high school singing are over but with his ability we hope he continues to sing. The only sophomore boy who seems to have the voice to sing tor the public is Marvin Easter. l-le was this year's baritone discovery and we are mighty proud ot him. Bob Stewart, the senior president, is the owner ot an excellent bass voice which he is glad to ex- hibit at any tunction and by which everyone is charmed. l INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC Superior musicians One ot the tinest groups ot musicians ever to come out ot Cedar Falls High School was the l939 and l94O Red and Black orchestra. Prob- ably the greatest event ot the year was the dis- trict music contest in which the Tiger musicians walked ott with thirteen superior ratings. With such able musicians as John Theimer, Phillip Seltenrich, Eleanor Tostlebe, Jim Merrill, Francis Cole, and many others, anyone could realize why this year was a highly successtul musi- cal one. Special distinction goes to John Theimer, who received tive superiors, three in groups and two in solos, and to Margaret l-lansen, who ac- companied three out ot the tive instrumental soloists and who received a tirst division rating, goes a bouquet. Compliments to the groups and orchestra Ot the ditterent orchestral groups, these mu- sicians brought home ten superiors trom Vinton, where the contest was held. The brass group re- ceived a superior rating, as did the woodwind groups. The string quartet came home bearing the honors ot an excellent rating. ln complimenting the orchestra members and the ditterent orchestral groups on their tine work this year, we must not torget to pay respects to the able direction ot Director James Melichar. Though we tidget in our seats during study hall on Wednesday and Friday mornings because ot the bedlam above, none ot us really minds tor we realize that in music, as in everything else. practice makes pertect. C. F.'S CHEERING SECTION Loyal forever We'll baclt you to stand 'gainst the best in the land. Without that dose ot pep provided by our tour-man pep team school lite would seem rather dull. Qur pep squad has worlced hard to malce this year snap with enthusiasm and loyalty tor our school and team. This year's pep squad consisted ot Douglas Bruce, Eunice Baumgartner, Margie Lecltbee, and Dick Brown, aided by Bob Case, Pauline Garbar, Gwen Vollcer, and Paul Mclvlillan. Pep meet at 3:lO in gym Everybody goes to the meet tor they lcnow that a good time is ahead. Decked in red and black and a srnie upon their taces, the cheer my leaders direct us in several hearty yells. With a word ot good luck and the singing ot the loyalty song we send the boys on their way to meet the toe. The colorful brigade Better than ever-our marching band has re- ceived many words ot praise trom all who have witnessed it in its action. The tlashing upeto-date unitorms ot our marching band members and the red satin outtits ot our baton-twirlers add the extra spice and zip to our tootball tield during the halt. Producing tiner music and more intri- cate maneuvers, our band has won the praise ot Northeastern lowa.

I-lowever, the purpose ot these programs was not only to entertain but also to help the girls in acguiring poise, improving personal ap- pearances, and developing personalities. Ap- pearing on the programs were Mrs. Frank Pitzen- burger, who spoke on care ot hair, Mrs. Mildred Larrance, care ot slcin, Dr. L. E. Nash who spoke twice on hygiene, members ot the group who reported on the lives ot modern women in tields ot literature, tashion and music: and Mr. Arbie Mether who thanlfed the girls tor their donations ot tood and toys tor the Thanksgiving and Christ- mas tunds. At one ot the meetings the home economics classes presented a style show, In the year's schedule Through the ioint sponsorship ot the Girls' Auxiliary and the I-Ii-Y, a much needed courtesy campaign was instituted last tall. Then betore Dame Nature had completely removed winter's blantet, the Girls' Auxiliary by virtue ot a snnalf preview otticiallv welcomed spring at its annual Mother-Daughter Banquet, the big event ot the year, on March 5 at the Women's Clubhouse. I 50 The tlower baslset programs with the center- piece ot spring tlowers and pastel candles creat- ed a spring-like atmosphere in which the diners enjoyed a delicious meal. A pleasingly unusual program tollowed the bangueting. Toastmistress, petite Orlene Camp- bell, opened the testivities by introducing Shirley Bolton who trilled a welcome to the mothers. Dark-eyed Mrs. Edwin Shortess, mother ot Elsie Shortess, warbled the response. In a surprise tea- ture ot the program, the senior girls were hon- ored tor their outstanding abilities. Songbirds Gwyneth Dilger and Jean I-lills added their springtime welcome dueting the 'lOld Refrain. Shirley Bolton tittingly concluded the program with a good night song. Noteworthy bids Among the many noteworthy activities ot this organization, is the maintenance ot a rest lounge. The girls have turnished and cared tor the room which provided a place to rest tor those who are ill. The Girls' Auxiliary has been very tortunate during the past year in having most etticient ot- Ticers. Betty MacStay is the president ot the organirationg Romona Qlsen, vice-president: Elo- ise lmlansen, secretary-treasurer: Qrlene Camp- bell, program chairman, and Miss Margaret Rait and Miss Marietta Abell served as sponsors. I Hl-Y Most active club Living up to its reputation ot being the most active club in school, the l-li-Y again led C. F. students through many school tunctions. The pro- verbial ball was started rolling by a tormal in- duction held in the First Methodist Church on the evening ot October 8. Teachers l-ligh, Finchtord, and New Hartford l'li-Y Clubs were invited to the impressive ceremony. Superintendent J. l-l. Peet was the speaker tor this occasion. The club joined the national l-li-Y association and was presented with a charter which was tramed and hung in the study hall. At the tirst luncheon ot the year, Mr. Peet is- sued a challenge to the l-li-Y- Clean up dis- courtesy in the halls ot C. F, l-l. S. Much credit goes to Diclc Brown, who volunteered several et- tective courtesy posters. The club made programs tor the homecoming tootbail game with Belle Plaine, and with the able leadership ot Ralph Lusk, sold them, thus bolster- ing the club treasury considerably. cr-- Talcing a stand The tirst C. F. l-l. S. student directory was compiled by a committee ot boys trom the l-li-Y. The Alpha Sigma Kappa girls printed the pam- phlet and the l-li-Y boys sold more than ZOO copies. The l-li-Y and Girlsl Auxiliary, each headed a party in the second annual alleschool election. The l-li'Y put 24 students into ottices tor another successtul Student Day. Again working with the Girls' Auxiliary, the l-li-Y sponsored a spring style show on the morn- ing ot April 30. Sixteen l-li-Y boys modeled clothing trom tour local clothing stores. Koert Voorhees was elected to attend the national l-li-Y convention at Oberlin. Kenneth Thompson proved himselt a true leader in his position as president. Francis Cole, Eldon Modisett, Diclc Nehlson, John Galloway, Gerald Crowell, ano lsoert Voorhees completed the personnel ot the cabinet. Mr. Schantz again served as club advisor. l i l i PARTIES OF THE YEAR The right spirit Are you going to the party tonight? said Brother Sophomore to Sister. 'lWhy ot course, was the reply. 'lSwelll then go with me. Yes, you have the right idea, tollcs. With questions tlying, a Battle ot the sixes opened the testivities ot the outstanding party ot the year and that was planned by the Sophof rnores. The master and mistress ol ceremonies, Jim' my Merrill and Barbara Ferguson, successfully conducted the battle which was won by a team composed ot Mrs. Schantz, Mary Panagalcis, and l 52 Peggy Gfatlney. X-Xnd such prizes that were given away! There were silver spoons, shovels. and even usetul rnops tor the teachers and their wives lex- cusing our prominent bachelor, Mr. Weaver, who escorted Mabel Benton Brownl. Valentines galore Alter the battle each person received a val' entine lrom his or her Mtrue love. Then the party-goers were relreshed with chocolate milk and cup cakes. The rest ot the evening was spent in dancing. The gym, the party place tor C. F. l-l. S., was decorated with valentines and large groups ol balloons, which were released to the crowd dur- ing the course ot the evening. l PARTIES OF THE YEAR The kids arrive The Junior lciddies Hlareenedu and tapered to their hearts' content at the Kindergarten Prol- ic which was held not in a little red school house but in the gym. After a session ot rope iumping, iaclc playing, and drop the handlserchiet, school was called to order by Protessor lErling Jorgenseni Kalten- meyer. Then announcing that she had a play, Eunice Baumgartner held the audience spellbaund with her original one-act play entitled Little Red Riding l-loodf' It was then that Percy Van Slyler Corning made his debut by reading a selection trom Shaking-spear as the old professor called it. Percy, however, was promptly disposed ot and class recessed tor its ice cream and tatty apples. Homecoming of I939 and I940 The old grads prowled through the building and visited their tormer classes. At 3:20 every' one adjourned to the assembly where a short program was held. Alumni spealcers, cheerleadf ers, taculty members and present students toolc part in the entertainment. Then with a cry ot Beat Belle Plame the Tiger rooters marched down town. Climaxing the day was the homecoming dance. Transtormed by streamers, the gymnas- ium reyerberated to the rhythms ot Bert Russell and his orchestra. cr- ARTS Smudged with paint It you see anyone running around in the com- mercial building with their hands and clothes smudged with paint, or whatever it is they use, you can almost malce a sure bet that he is an art student. The industrial and tine art classes this year have been busier than usual. The entire tirst se- mester was devoted to general study ot art. They also produced a puppet show atter the tairy tale Rumplestilsl4in, the tirst semester. The second semester was devoted to the production ot Blue Beard and more to the individual interests ot the art students. Valuable assets Instructor Mrs. Helen Lentz is one ot the more valuable assets ot Cedar Falls High. The art class made the very original blocked linen curtains tor the dining room and did much to improve the looks ot the Home Management room. A certain attraction The mechanical drawing classes seem to hold much attraction tor the male students. Many ot the boys have expressed the opinion that this subiect may have a tuture tor them, and that sev- eral graduates ot C. F. l-l. S. have made use ot what they have learned in this course. T541 COMMERCIAL CLASSES A newcomer thinks it's Greek Early last tall Pop Stanard was asked by a treshie who was laboring over his Schedule When can l take Greek? When intormed that no such course was available at C. F. l-l. S. the newcomer declared that he had seen students reading what he thought was Greek over in the room next to the typing room. The enlightened school head hurriedly corrected the novice with the intorma- tion that the course was, in reality, shorthand. To err is human, and well the greenhorn might have erred here tor a hasty glance at a shorthand text could easily give the impression ot pages ot Greek letters. Clattering typewriters Amid the din ot clattering typewriters, one can usually tind Mr. Paul Weaver, C. F. l-l. S. typing instructor, sitting at his desk, completely oblivious to the noise. Upon hearing the varied assortment ot groans, grunts, and growls lalways present when students are checking their total number ot errorsl he simply smiles grimly and continues checking the numerous charts, and papers includ- ed in the daily routine. At ditterent intervals, the class is interrupted by the Hmelodious tingling ot the time-clock, warning students that the time is up tor their tests, or supplementary drills. cr-- ll LIBRARY Storehouse of a variety of things You will see rows and rows, some with limp. wilted leaves, others with crisp, tresh ones. No. you have not arrived at a Calitornia lettuce tield, you're in the tield ot knowledge here in C. F- l'l- S. To the most ot us the library is the place to search tor intormation about the things that tlit precariously across our minds in various classes. To others it is a place to tind the latest bit ot gossip, and to many it is the storehouse ot the cherished tiction boolcs and magazines, ot which we have a choice selection this year. I 56 An inviting place Amid this room tilled with masterpieces ot hundreds ot authors, many things happen which cause our library genius, Coella Correll, to sup- press a volume ot giggles. There is the sophomore who daily expresses his desire to see the latest American Geography magazine. Then there is the persniclety treshman who always wants a boot to match his sweater. t-le carries it around to impress people. The library has become such an inviting place that it we were not barred entrance most ot the time, there would hardly be room tor the dust to settle behind us, i SCIENCE Battling the biologists l-lave you ever wondered why pertectly healthy students stagger out ot Mr. Blieses sanc- tuary with wan, drawn taces? l-lectic biology classes are the answer to this guery. Gleetul students, pleasantly uncomtortable atter a tull noon meal, enter the room with guicl steps and light hearts, only to be contronted by bloated tish, slimy earthworms, hideous grass- hoppers, and smelly trogs. At a given signal trom lnstructor John Bliese, the biologists start dis- secting the particular odoriterous specimen ot the day. crf- ln addition to dismernbering preserved trogs and the lilce, numerous scientitic terms battle the biologists, And, as it this were not enough to dishearten any student, mysterious surprise guiz- zes otten are presented. lnto the chemistry lab Two groups ot upperclassmen meet every day to learn the tacts and tigures ot chemistry trom pedagogue, John Bliese. Students not taking an active part in either ot the chemistry classes may not be aware ot the worlf done in the classroom with valances, eguations, and tormulas, but all high schoolers are aware ot the chemistry lab worlc because ot the penetrating odors which originate there. HOME MANAGEMENT Mixing their brew Add salt and pepper, and butter and eggs, in it all goes, and what will come out nobody knows. Although this is not the chant ot the three witches nor the song ot the home management classes as they mix their poison, the brew which results could easily be either. Fingers were kept out ot the soup in cooking class by Mrs. l-l. Cromer, who served dinners tor many ditterent school occasions. l-lowever, some decided there were enough cooks to spoil the broth, so they concentrated on expanding their ward- robes by making ditlerent things. Mrs. Cromens work started with the second semester. Miss l.elah l-lanson, who was the tirst semester's pilot, capitulated to cupid's dart, and took up homemaking- just tor two. Fashionable costumes The second semester's classes created much publicity, because the group sewed their summer dresses, sport costumes, and what have you. Each girl could choose what she wanted to sew and then select her material. Atter the garment was completed each girl displayed her work in the audi- torium betore the girls ot the school. Every one was thrilled at some ot the results ot their triends work, never thinking that some ot them would be able to sew a stitch. But when we saw them we knew that they are the homemakers ot tomorrow. l-lome management has become guite popular, and it has every reason to gain this popularity by the way the members ot the class talk. They are all prepared tor llcome what may in the line ot cooking and sewing. Some ot the better dressed girls in our school are making their own wardrobes. And they tell me that laying patterns on plaid material is no snap iob, and neither is making button holes. WORKING WITH WOOD AND METAL Gaining popularity Since time began, the Cedar Falls High School has had a wood worlc shop, but never betore has it had a metal worlc department, lt has embarlced upon a new adventure and, iudging by the numbers who are taking manual art worlc this year, it seems to be gaining in popularity. The new member ot the taculty, Mr. Wreidt, has proved a worthy adviser in this course and much interest has been centered on his personal cratt. Ot walnut ancl oak Vernon Peters thrii ed the heart ot some tair maid when he tinished his modern dee signed walnut writing dest in woodworking class. lt seems George Mir er got overly am- bitious and F9506 an upholstered stool ot walnut.

Gerald Crowell did art metal wort, such as spinnning and hammering ot metal trays out ot copper and aluminum. Glen Stout and Ernie lolletson went in tor lathe worlr, such as malfing hammer heads, punches. and chisels. Freshmen reign in the general shop Manual arts has a special department tor the beginners in wood and metal worlr. ln this general shop, many ambitious 9th grade boys linger to show their slfill. Stanley Straight made a white pine sew- ing cabinet that any lady would lilff? to OWN and Elmore Stetten made a ply WOOC3 SGW- ing cabinet that his mother is mighty proud to put into use. STUDENT BODY RULES Political campaigning Words tlew tast and thiclcl When? A weelt betore the political election, ot course. No, it's not the State election and it's not the Federal. lt's our own C. F. l-I. S. when the students tool4 the control into their hands and made history tor the second time. Much dodging was done by all. as the would-be politicians used the practice ot mud- slinging in obtaining votes. The C party turned into the llSizzling Cs' and the I3 party tound that the plattorm Fine Fair Faculty suited them. As is usual, in every tense political campaign there are those students who are dissatistied with both parties. So was the case in C. IZ. tor the Inde- pendent party was tormed to loin the tray. The IZ, C, and Independent parties tought tooth and nail to get their men into ottice. Vic' tory was tinally gained to this hardftought battle by the I3 party, when it was tound upon comput- ing the votes, that they had succeeded in getting 24 candidates into ottice, while the C party tool their stand with IO. Were sorry to say that the Independent party missed out entirely as none ot their candidates procured a maiority ot the votes 'lor any otlice. Super intelligence Intelligence in C. II. I-I. S. was tound to be super as iudged by this election, as nearly all students voted and tew ballots were tound to be void. Another tactor to be talcen into con- sideration is that only a minority ot the students balloted a straight ticlcet. C. IZ. l-l. S. is not to be outdone by the Fed- eral Government, as we too had political land- slides in the ranlcs. This was true tor the ottices ot principal and ianitor which Fudge Camarata and Edmon I-leidemann tultilled successtully when they tied tor highest number ot votes received. Except tor a slight hitch between Principal Camarata and young Freshman Bobbi' Phelps, all seemed to go well throughout the day, A decree was issued by the Eoard ot Educa- tion that Rec dancing would be held in the gym atter school tor all so inclined. This procla- mation was especially welcomed by the weary student teachers.

Students labor through one long semester atter another so that they may at some time look down and laugh at the novices going through the same torture as they did when they were new at the game. C. F. l-l. S. is no exception to this rule. This year tor the tirst time in many long years a mass ot green treshmen invaded the halls ot C. F. l-l. S., and the upperclassmen received them with an otticial, intormal initiation. On Qctober IO, 1939, the be-ribboned tresh- men taced their tate. The newcomers became the personal servants ot the seniors, carrying heaps ot boolfs to classes, tying shoe strings, sharpening pencils, and respecttully addressing all upperclassmen by their surnames. Freshies bowed and scurried to obey every imaginable command issued by their superiors. Trembling freshies Classes were adjourned at 3:00, and the trembling treshies gathered in the auditorium to await the tinal testivities ot the day. From there, shorn ot shoes and sox and blind-tolded, they were led by burly seniors along a tortuous path to the gymnasium where the upperclassmen waited to witness the tinal initiation tortures. Following an earfsplitting greeting by the assem- bled upperclassmen, the tirst group ot treshies waddled the length ot the tloor in an hilarious newspaper race. Next, ten treshmen noses push- ed ten peanuts down the long, long trail. A tlour sack race in which couples ot treshmen hopped, stumbled, and tell the length ot the tloor, came next. f'-X group ot boys perched on high stools became tailors, and, with tongue in the corner ot mouth, laboriously darned air-conditioned sox tor the next teature on the bill. Following this, blindftolded couples ted bananas to the eyes and cars ot their partners. 13 ,m:'x .ff f? in , 4 . f f 52373 ' LETIC -cr FOOTBALL AT ITS BEST In review Reading the past history ot Cedar Falls grid- iron activities, we note that the team ot I938 came out ot deteat in a Cinderella-like trans- tormation. The magic wand ot Cinderella's Fairy God- mother could not have produced greater grid- iron triumph than the coaching talents ot C. C. VanDylce and E. I.. Fisher. Under their guidance, the seven returning lettermen and tour recruits hitched their wagon to a star and marched thru to an undeteated season in I939-I94O. For posterity Newspaper headlines blazed the names ot Captain Pudge Camarata, John Walton, and Gerald Crowell as the principle score makers. Playing the other eight less spectacular positions, the rest ot the team made such scoring possible. The ne'er lying tigures show that this Tiger team compiled a total ot I89 points, while al- lowing their opponents only 9. The Tigers earned and won three titles in I939, which are: Tri-Valley Conterence Cham- pions, City Champions, and one ot the tew un- deteated teams in the entire state.

Clinching the Tri-Valley The Tigers, by the leadership ot Mully, won their tirst two cage battles by rather impressive scores but then went into a slump and lost three games, one to Marshalltown and one each to Waverly and East Waterloo, but seemingly the sting ot deteat put new lite into their bodies, be- cause we then went undeteated through our season until we met our last opponent, Vinton.

Galloway, as usual, is very calm and collected but that does not stop his desire tor the ball. fvlully is still showing his excep- tional cage ability by lceeping his distance tor a time. All boys concerned are striving desperately to get their hands on that elusive globe. The Vifaterloo-C. F. game and we see why Galloway has earned the title ot Long John. A seasoned player and a new- comer in the ranlcs ot strong-men. Both are intent on getting that ball tor their dear old Alma Mater. FRESHMAN SPORTS From raw material What makes tor a tinished product? Not just the work ot the person who puts on the tinal touches. Many hands have added their touch as the article progressed trom the raw material stage to the pertect completed product. While we realize that Coaches VanDyke and Fisher are two ot the tinest, we must keep in mind two other tigures behind the scenes. These two, Lester Pet' erson and Stanley Reeves, iunior high coaches, also two ot the tinest, do much with the raw ma- terial. We remember that a tew years ago many would-be letter winners did not appear on the gridiron or basketball court until their iunior or senior years. To the disappointment ot several ot these, they were unable to earn the coveted award, as they had not had the now available preliminary training which is so necessary to suc- cesstul teams. So when we are giving titteen rahs tor the team and senior high coaches, Iet's not torget the other two who started the ball rolling in the right direction. To seasonal prod ucts A total ot I7 boys participated in the I939- 4O season's sports which included tootball and basketball. CI'-- The Tiger cubs averaged .500 tor the tootball season, going through their schedule with three wins and three deteats. A less successtul basket- ball season was concluded with two wins and three deteats. The trosh's opponents in both sports included Vinton, Independence, T. C., Waverly, and both Waterloo schools. The I7 numeral winners included: I'Iarland, Johnson, Peters, Sherman, I-Iauser, Petersen, Jor- gensen, Connell, Glaza, Miller, Ivlinish, O'Brien, Jacobsen, Bigler, Kadesch, and Poduska. Several ot these neophite athletes received awards in both sports. For the tootball season, a team was selected trom the boys trom grades seven to nine, who re- ported regularly tor practice. Noticeable tor their performance and giving great promise as tuture Tiger grid stars, were Damon Thorsrud, Frank Sherman, and James I-Iarland. The opening call tor basketball tound material sutticient to supply teams trom each ot grades seven, eight, and nine-each playing a separate schedule. We may look torward to seeing several ot those participating in tuture varsity games- some ot the most promising being James I-lar, land, Robert Poduska, and John Bigler Iperhaps another Bobl.

Mr, Eugene Fisher has taken his golting ability onto the links and distributed his knowledge ot play to those who teel golting is their line. There were a number ot people in C. F. l-l. S. this year who decided to go out tor qolt. Ot this number were Gene Blair, Shirley Rarnsdell, C-raydon Fuller, Ellinq Opsal, Bill Dean, Douglas Bruce, Don Bartholomew, Louis Shirnpach, Jerry Jacobsen, Don Johnson, and Charles Connell. l ALONG THE CINDER PATH ln the beginning ln IQ37, when track was made a major sport at C. F. H. S., it proved its right to a place on the athletic calendar. This year traclc put another teather in its cap, coming more to the tront be- cause ot our entrance into the Tri-Valley Conter- ence. Traclc, a tine sport in itselt, has been tound to be ot great value to all boys who participate in it, especially in building boys tor 'football and basketball. It not only accomplished this purpose, but also developed a number ot stars ot its own. And in I94O This year, Harry Lalcin and Mike Shirlc ran the mile, and LeRoy Taclcenberg the V2 mile in very r cr- good torm, while their colleagues, l-Ions Voor- hees and John Walton, very ably held down the middle distances and ran with the mile relay team. Clayton Tiller, Max Boyd, and Gerald Crowell have upheld the names they made tor themselves last year, while running the dashes, with Galloway talcing the hurdles in time torm. Bartholomew and Camarata are our weight men, with Fudge also throwing the iavelin and jump- ing. At the time ot this writing, we have had only three traclc meets each ot which we have won by very impressive scores. With Erling Jorgen- son showing much promise in the hurdles, and with Tiller and Voorhees baclc, our next year's team should go tar under the direction ot our very able coach, C. C. Van Dylce. if T cch me :X c -.1.ai,.i FXS -cr GIRLS AT PLAY Borrowing the gridiron ln the tall while the Tigers were totinl the pig- sltin, the gals borrowed the gridiron during class hours to battle each other in hard-tought, slcin- lcicking soccer games. With the tirst sign ot Jack Frost, the tairer sex moved in-doors and turned their attention to volleyball. Tournaments were held in class and intrafmural contests were staged atter school. With the change ot the seasons, the limber lassies earnestly began to concentrate their et' torts on baslcetball. Due to the unusually large classes this year, Miss Harriet initiated a new type ot basketball in which a greater number ot girls could participate in their tavorite sport. ln the atter-school activities, Ruth Doran's iunior sextet upset Eleanor Tostlebe's senior squad to talce the girls' intra-mural championship, The members ot the victorious team were Ruth Doran, Pauline Voorhees, Dorothy Nasby, Marjorie Holmes, Mar- iorie Johnson, and Dorothy Williams. lt you've never played tether ball you have missed a good time. Talce a triend some time and go to the gym and play it. The girls spend some time in getting themselves in shape tor this. tor it talces someone up on their toes to play this game. l r l GIRLS AT PLAY And when the whistle blows When the track season comes tor the boys, the girls also have their hearts set on high jump- ing, races, and low hurdles. lf you happened to go tor a walk down to Washington park on Tuesdays, you would see a group ot girls clad in sportswear going in lor track very heavily. Just like any track meet, the girls line up and wait tor the whistle to give the signal to go. They're otl. Usually alter an hour ot running and iumping the girls are ready to return to the high school. Tennis rackets and golt clubs were carried to school as soon as Spring arrived. The girls could choose between these two sports and then they played these games the entire period set aside tor gym. lt's a pleasure Miss Harriet gave much attention to the groups interested in these sports and much skill and poise was developed as a result. These sports are usetul to the girls as they leave school, too, tor they can always go to our city golt links and tennis courts and spend their leisure time wisely. It used to be considered a drudgery to have to go to gym, but now it is considered a pleas- ure. The girls can go there and play as they want to, under supervision and guidance. During the year many games were won and lost, but sportsmanship and tair play were key- notes ot all athletic competition, l77l WORKING FOR PHYSICAL POISE Goal is set This year, as ever, the boys' physical educa- tion classes were under the direction ot Chiet VanDyke and his active helper, Coach Fisher. As always, the goal set up was to improve the physical poise and stamina ot all health seekers who ventured within range ot the gymnasium. ln I938, we had our tirst taste ot intra-mural basketball under Mr. VanDyke. This year the teams were organized by diminutive but dynamic Lester Petersen, a newcomer to our senior high taculty this year. The teams adopted names ot their own choosing. An example ot this is l'Marsh's Ivlousesfl And with these teams the boys played three round-robin tournaments. The goal was reached, that ot giving every boy a l 7 8 tundamental knowledge ot basketball, and in all, the boys had a good time-just ask 'em. The scope is widened Each year the scope ot our physical education program has been widened. This year, along with, and besides tennis, track, wrestling, and tumbling were introduced. So it you ever see Ken Thomp- son cartwheeling to school, iust remember he is one ot VanDyke's prodigees. As always, to break the monotony ot winter exercises, the boys in- dulged in the manly art ot wrestling, which re- sulted in some rather smart contests by the wouldebe Atlases. Now looking back over a pleasant and health' tul year under Coaches VanDyke and Fisher, the boys are iustly proud ot our coaching statt at C. F. l-l. S. 1 BUSINESS BGOSTERS A. 84 P.
