FULL CITIZENS!-III? PAST ELLIS ISLAND At last . . . full citizenship in C. E. H. S. Ever since they were struggling little sopho- mores, these immigrants into high school life, have looked forward to the time when they would become seniors and be distinguished as the Citizens of our high school. But let us flip through the pages in the his- tory of there new citizens and note the out- standing events. ln the field of music these newcomers made outstanding contributions. Miriam Hansen and her golden voice, Margaret Hansen and her numerous musical accomplishments, Dick Brown and his clarinet, and the violinists Bob Corning, Angeline Panagakis, and Gertrude Kitchen studded the sophomore list of har- monious music makers. Outstanding names in the sophomore ath- letic world were Louis Cutshall, Eugene Blair, Eldon Modisett, Ernie Tollefson, and Charles Bast. Youthful Dick Brown and Doug Bruce astonished Cedar Ealls thespian fans by dis- playing their technique as two old gents in the play Minick. Other promising pos- sessors of histrionic ability were Erling Jor- gensen, Eunice Baumgartner, and Jean Eergu- son. Tl-IE PROCESS OF NATURALIZATION Time marched on and the immigrants found themselves launched on another year in C. E. H. S .... Juniors. Musical triumphs took place among the juniors. The two Hansens received high awards in the National Music Contest, and Dick Brown helped place the Clarinet quar- tet in a high ranking position in the same event. Jean Ferguson, Eldon Modisett, and Dick Nehlsen gathered in the first three positions in the local Original Oratory Contest, and Jean marched on to the state contest. How- ever, Angeline Panagakis and Koert Voorhees gave the winners a close race. Three one act plays uncovered some new talent among the immigrants. James Dunbar was a new find and well deserved the praise awarded him for his portrayal in l'Our Town. Bouquets also were in order for Miriam Hansen, Dick Nehlsen and comedian Erling Jorgensen. l Z4 Euture scientific talent was found in Bob Corning, Dan McNabb, Kathryn Gleason, Pauline Voorhees, Jane Harned, Esther Jen- sen, Penelope Scott, Julianne McCoy, and Marjorie Olsen. Bill Miller began to display his photo- graphic ability and was selected assistant an- nual photographer for the '40 yearbook. Eulah Sloan was elected to the position of Editor-ln-Chief of the l94l annual. Modisett, Tolly, and Pinky Bast as- sisted the undefeated gridiron squad, while Blair and 'ACutch contributed to the Tri- Valley Champs during the cage season. Er- ling Jorgensen, Koert Voorhees, Ed Bisdee, Clayton Tiller and Max Boyd held the hopes for a successful track team in l94l. NATU RALIZED CITIZENS--AT LAST And now in a year influenced by Patriotic Stimuli, a class motto, a flower, and colors have been selected to illustrate the fact that the time has come for that once bewildered bit of humanity to become seniors and Uciti- zens. Eugene Blair, Louis Cutshall, and Junior Llewellyn were news on the gridiron. Co- Captains were Eldon and Ernie, and Charlie Bast still toted the pig-skin for this institu- tion. The Tri-Valley Championship Award could not have been won without A'Cutch's guarding and Blair's scoring on the l94O-4l basketball team, No one will forget Doug Bruce as Henry Aldrich or Jim Dunbar as Mr. Bradley. Jimmy McKillip was a newcomer on the stage, sharing honors with the old stars. Mir- iam Hansen, Jean Ferguson, Dick Nehlsen, Eunice and Erling. Eldon Modisett received first place in Orig- inal Oratory and Penelope Scott was award- ed the Brindley Debate Scholarship. The busy seniors found time to relax and enjoy themselves. The Senior Barn Dance Erolic, Sneak Day, Democracy Day, and the Gay Nineties Revue on Hobo Day were the highlights in the social world of the class of '4l. The climax was reached after Class Day, Senior Breakfast, and DIPLOMAS, and the citizens of C. E. H. S. advance to the out- side world to prepare themselves to become worthy citizens of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. l
