As timid freshmen we beheld our superiors, the haughty upper-classmen, who were amused at our bewildered and frightened actions. Yes, even we, the dignified seniors of 1945, once dangled from hat hooks, peered from lockers, and searched for the assembly seats which we had purchased at bargain prices. Early in this school year of 1941, this motley assembly congregated for the purpose of choosing officers. After casting our votes we learned that Margaret Ann Benson would be the president for our freshman year- Other officers chosen at this meeting were Galen Christiansen, vice president, and Micheal Bushnell, secretary-treasurer. Miss Mary Costello and Miss Grace Bennett were sponsors of the class. Sack-lunch parties were very popular with our class that year-we had only five of them! One of the honors bestowed upon the members of our class that year was the awarding of positions as drum-majorettes to Maedeen Elliott and Beulah Hannon. Some of the athletes of our class started their careers as freshmen.

Our sophomore sponsors, Miss Mary Cumiskey and Mrs. Faye Harper, aided us in organizing our class. Jack Catlett was our president, Bob Sanford, vice president and Beulah Hannon, secre- tary-treasurer. In the all-school play 'ADon't Take my Penny, Maurice Goldsberry and Tennie Lay had the leading parts. George Bell was also a member of the cast. Again, in 1942, our class Was represented in athletics, music and other activities of the school- Our class parties that year were very successful. The third page of our history tells the story of our careers as upper classmen, During our junior year We gained prominence in all the school functions. Our sponsors were Miss Ruby Johnson, Miss Jennette McGregor and Mrs. Faye Harper. The sterner sex achieved a mo- nopoly of the class offices as the final count showed Henry LaRue was president, Bob Teel was vice president, .lack Myers was treasurer and Galen Christiansen was secretary.

With their assistance the team won five games, tied one and lost two. This record was the best for several years. A major portion of the energies of the class was devoted to earning money for the junior- senior banquet. This was accomplished by selling popcorn at the games, sponsoring an all- school dance and by selling magazine subscriptions. Champion magazine salesmen were Bruce Holmes, Margaret Ann Benson and Norma Jean Holmes- Our dramatic production that year was the junior play, i'Growing Pains. Rubye Rae Rob- ' inson, Bob Sanford, George Bell, Margaret Ann Benson Dorothy Dugger., Janice Allen, Claire Lee McElroy, Bob Miller, Jack Catlett, Henry LaRue, Viginia Clouse, Maxine Size- more, Floyd Bottorff, Ted Hamlet and Barbara Hale made up the cast.

Track stars included Donald Hefley, Dale Richards, Galen Christiansen, Bob Atkinson, Jack Myers and Henry LaRue. .The most important social event of the year was the junior-senior banquet. The theme chosen was Thank your Lucky Stars. Music was furnished by Ab Sell and his Blackfriars. During our junior year several ambitious members of our class, Harriette Gallagher, Thomas Thompson, Eleanor Newton, Fred Armstrong and Betty Lou Heavin, became seniors by deciding to finish high school in three years. The fourth and last page of our history tells of our final accomplishments. Our sponsors were Mrs- Mima Turill and Mrs. Jane Evans. We elected Ed Bradney president, Gordon Hale vice president, Beth McCleery treasurer and Maedeen Elliott secretary.

Again this year we were well represented in athletics as Well as in other activities. Gordon Hale and Donald Hefley have applied for their state farmer degees in the FEA. Among the cheerleaders were Bob Sanford, Paul Castagno, Evelyn Cassell and Maedeen Elliott. The first dramatic production of the year in which members of our class participated was Headed for Eden. Included in the cast were Dorothy Dugger, Mary Allene Smittle, and Vir- ginia Payne. The senior play was Young April which was a sequel to our last year's junior play. The annual Kid Day was one of the main attractions of the year. Roller skates. dolls and scooters were in order on that return to our younger days. The highlight of the year was the junior-senior banquet which was in May. Having answered Uncle Sam's invitation, several members of our class were absent at these final activities. Those who entered the armed forces during the year were Harry Albertson, Joe Davis, Jack Catlett. Jack Bennett, Donald Stover, Maurice Goldsberry, and Dale Jones.

The commanding officers were Miss Mary Costello and Miss Grace Bennett. Our pilot was Jo Belt and her co-pilots were Neil Ridley, Imogene Scroggins and Paul Brandenburg. After nine months of successful training we were given a three months' furlough. , Commissioned to travel and work as sophomores, one hundred thirty cadets came back to training in September, '43. We welcomed Miss Mary Cumiskey and Mr. Robert M. Lay as our commanding officers. Bruce McCall was made our pilot, and Betty Mast, Ann Lamendola and James Skahan were his co-pilots. We combined with the three other squadrons to present an all-star show, Brother Goose. Because of our excellent work, we were again rewarded with a three months' furlough. After an enjoyable furlough we checked out our equipment for the third training period of l944. One hundred twenty were promoted to juniors- Our commanding officers this year were Miss Beulah Koen, Miss Ruby Johnson and Mrs. Faye Harper. The position of pilot was awarded to Neil Ridley. Paul Churchill, Barbara Belt and Charles Boulware were his able assistants. Our big entertainment presented this year was Tiger House, which starred James Skahan and Jean Augustus, supported by a cast of nine members of the class. Our big objective this year was raising funds for the junior-senior banquet in the spring. We decided to sell magazines for Curtis and Company for a good commission. We set a goal for 5350, but we bombed the S350 goal right off the map, collecting a sum of 372250. As we are leaving our junior year in school we are all hoping to avoid being washed out and to receive our wings at the end of our senior year. ---Charles Brown Page Fifteen 3 s.f,q ', :-milf 5 21 ---IL?-M 2 N-N,,..'w..

Since we started to high school in the midst of war we have had to forego several things such as out-of-town games, a few parties and other activities. But did we mind? You bet we did, but we took it with a smile and managed to have a good time anyway. As freshmen we enjoyed the usual privileges UQ granted to that class, but we soon learned how to get out of the lockers and off the hat hooks. At the first freshman meeting we elected our class officers-Buddy Bull, president: Birdie Belle Murray, vice presidentg Ted Atkinson, secretaryg and Audrey Spriggs, treasurer-and planned the very first assembly of the year. At the aforementioned program we had a-varied display of talent. Verna Lou Gore, pianist, made her debutg also Mary Margaret Jones, an outstanding school vocalist, sang on this Hour of Charm, .These two girls have risen high in the Hall of Fame of CCCHS. ln, the all-school play Brother C. three freshmen--Marcella Helwig, Harry Greaver and Carl Ireton- had parts. We had two parties which were a great success. At the close of this eventful term we heaved a sigh of relief and in gratitude turned to our sponsors, Miss Mary Costello and Miss Grace Bennett who had helped us over the rough spots and told us what we most needed to know about high school.

We elected Wayne Fitzgerald president, Nelson Jones vice president, HOH121' G21t6W0Od Secretary and Mary Lou Fuller treasurer. Our officers and sponsors aided by the entire class planned the sophomore party which took place early in the year. We all had a wonderful time. Our assembly, a radio program, was considered one of the best of the year. To the confusion of the instructors and to the amusement of the students, Mother Nature blessed us sophies with four sets of twins. Yes, we are blessed with the Fitzgeralds, two identical romeosg the Imels, girls mind you and very charming onesg the Longneckers who-well, even their parents can't tell them apart, and last but not least, the Overmans who are on the Mutt and Jeff order. We really went to town this year in dramatics. There were eight sophomores of a cast of seventeen in the all-school play Headed for Eden. These eight were Wayne and Worth Fitzgerald, Harry Greaver, Russell Forkner, Dick Holmes, Elaine Mulliken, Marjorie Houser and Nelson Jones. We call that a mighty good representation. Our class is also exceptionally peppy- Among the leaders of the school cheering section were Nelson Jones, Tad Field and Mary Margaret Bowers. We couldn't be called slackers in the music department either since large numbers of us were in the band, drum corps and chorus. Almost all the sophomores occupied their time pleasantly and profitably on every other Wednesday afternoon in the G.R., Hi-Y, F.F.A., and Pep Club. We have held offices and are active in all these organizations. Vernon Ballenger, the Fitzgeralds, Buddy Bull, Ted Atkinson and numerous others are our rising athletes. We have had a most enjoyable and profitable school year, and it will be remembered as a happy milestone along the way to our destination, graduation. .

It began the first Week of September in 1944, when one hundred seventy-two lonesome and lost freshmen appeared at the doors of this insti- tution of learning and made their Way to the loft for the very first assembly. After we were settled in school for our freshman year, we had plenty of pep and were ready to set the world on fire with our extensive knowledge. We turned our attention toward class organization and elected officers. We chose Norma Belt, president: Merle McReynolds, vice president: Delores Saparito, treasurer and Dale Ridley, secretary. Perhaps the first notable event in our class history was the class party which was given in the recreation hall. The dramatic ability of our classmates was first displayed in the all-school Page Twenty-five Reagan F R E S H M E N l Sriram, 1-. , - A ee , if JM 3 fi xi T 2 ,,.,., : - ,, :fb A ' 3' -, f ' ' c',' Y -4 ss ,- Q, is K , x,-' V A I i Ugg : 2 if . . :mfr my A 3045 ru- V mm Q .

Our school offers many opportunities to the students since a large variety of courses are included in the curriculum. The commerce department is one of the largest in the school. The commercial subjects offered are typing, shorthand, bookkeeping, business training and business arithmetic. Many of the business majors, upon graduation, plan to take positions for which their high school train- ing has prepared them. Instructors in this department are Miss Mary Cumiskey, Miss Wilma Callahan, Miss Irene Best and Mr. B. K. Sanford. V The normal training course trains the students for teaching positions in rural schools. Some of the subjects in this course are psychology, methods and management of rural schools, geo- graphy and music. Miss Mary Costello supervises this department. Before graduation each student must have completed three years of English. One semester of each year is devoted to grammar and the other semester to literature. The English instructors are Miss Beulah Koen, Mrs. Faye Harper, Miss Grace Bennett and Mrs. Jane Potter-Evans. The home economics courses included are foods and clothing. Practical training in the plan- ning, preparation and serving of nutritious meals is given the foods classes. Good grooming and the care of clothing, as well as the actual construction of garments, are the objectives of the clothing classes. Miss Effie Hackney is the clothing teacher. Page Twenty-nine Government and American history are required courses for the upperclassmen. Miss Ruby Johnson and Mrs. Evans teach in the social science department. The wartime emergency has placed more emphasis on physical fitness. CCCHS cooperates with the government program by requiring four years of physical education for both boys and girls. Miss Lorene Carson and Mr. Rollin Vanorsdall supervise the physical education activities. Miss Hazel Modesitt is the foreign language teacher. The courses offered are Spanish and Latin. Mathematics is one of the large departments of CCCHS. Increased emphasis has been placed on mathematics because of its importance in the various branches of the Armed Forces. The math teachers are Mr. R. K. Davis, Mr. Leo Deerwester and Miss Ruby Johnson. The industrial arts courses offer practical training to boys interested in manual training, mechanical drawing, welding and auto mechanics. Mr. W. W. Cook and Mr. Harris Hopkins are the instructors of these courses. Mr. Harold Brandenburg teaches the physical science courses-chemistry and general science. He also supervises the photography class which takes the pictures for the Checoukan. Mr. Russ Davee teaches biology, physiology and radio. These required and elective courses, along with the extra curricular activities, offer each student the academic and social training essential in preparing him to take his place in the community.

Page Thirty-six ATHLETICS Athletics at CCCHS entered its fourth wartime year and was fundamentally the same as in the 'good ole' prewar days. Football and basketball, as well as track, schedules were carried out. The SEK League was still inactive, but a mid-winter meeting at Parsons reorganized this powerful League for next season. The war didn't hinder football fans this year as CCCHS enjoyed one of the best gate-receipt totals on record. Basketball also was well supported by students and Columbus fans. The Columbus football team was regarded as a hard-playing group of boys. Their record was not perfect, but Coach Davee always urged clean, hard play. The basketball team was labeled a very determined group. They were un- defeated during the regular season and won both the regional tournament at Pittsburg and the semi-final tournament at Kansas City. In the Kansas City tournament Jack Myers and Neil Ridley were chosen as members of the all-star team. In the State Finals at Emporia, the following were selected by The Salina Tribune for places on the all-star team: 5' 9 Ridley, forward wr,. .Y ..C,..,,..

Pittsburg 20 The football prospects looked good as September arrived. Coach Russ Davee called practice and thirteen lettermen responded along with eighty-seven others. After three weeks of diligent practice, the Titans traveled to Picher and won 33 to O. The following week the Pt. Scott Tigers tried to break a forty-year jinx on our field but lost to the tune of 34 to 0, Undefeated Independence then journeyed here where we defeated them by a single point. Miami proved to have too much line and backfield for the injury-riddled Titans and defeated us 33 to 13. Then Coffeyville threw a long pass and beat us in the fourth quarter to take the mythical S.E.K. title. The Parsons jinx on our field proved itself again as the Titans could not hold an early lead. Next the power- ful Joplin Eagles kept their undefeated record intact before a capacity crowd at Junge's Stadium. Our annual coal-bucket scuttle was fought on the Pittsburg gridiron, but again the Titans could not hold a 7-6 lead at the half. We of CCCHS are looking forward to next football season when we would like to see the Titans take the S'.E.K. title, Coach gives instructions.

They were undefeated in regular play, were the mythical S.E.K. champions, regional cham- pions and finally the Eastern Kansas Cham- pions. Last November, Coach Davee called practice and nine lettermen responded--Jack Myers, Henry LaRue, Cialen Christiansen, Paul Church- ill, Ed Bradney, Neil Ridley, Bruce McCall, Alfred Blunk and Jack Tinney.

The first Weeks in January saw the Titans vic- torious over Joplin and Coffeyville. Parsons next threw a scare into the high-riding Titans, but we won by two points. After being behind, we won a thriller from Pittsburg 23-21. The next week two Oklahoma teams fell to our cagers. Parsons again threatened our record, but Reserves son, Belt, Parker. Bottom row: Keys, C. Richards Gatewood, Breneman, McReynolds. we managed to eke out a victory. Joplin and a powerful Coffeyville team once again fell to the Titans. Altamont with one of its best teams in years couldn't match the power of the Titans. Then we won our traditional game from Pitts- burg to finish the season undefeated. CCCHS was the only Class AA high school in Kansas to have an undefeated basketball team. Page Forty-rwo Titans fight for the ball Top row: Putnam, Field, Atkin- At the Regional Tournament, Ft, Scott and Pittsburg lost to our mighty Titans. At Kansas City the Titans drew Shawnee Mission, the defending state champions, and won by only one point. We next played the Chanute Comets and won by thirteen points. From our state capital came a hard fighting group of boys, but they were edged out by two points by our Titans. On Mlarch 22 the Titans journeyed to Em- poria and were defeated by Salina in their first game. Salina went on to win the state cham- pionship and Topeka took second place. This is further than any other Columbus team has ever gone. Coach Russ Davee and his boys def serve much credit for their successful season. Christiansen after a rebound.
