Our forefathers laid down in blood the creed of our existence, that mankind might awaken to the justice that gives to every man, without prejudice, certain inalienable rights. These men rose above tyranny, greed and ambition to discover a M1fliZ?!l!Ff,. il CJKLAHOMA new way of life. Now, this nation of courage proudly bears the torch of liberty that will light the entire world. America is at war. The bitter months of struggle which are destined to follow will place our doctrines of freedom on trial before the world. In this mighty adventure we must be armed with one ideal: a unity of purpose. We, the heirs to the future, must construct into a plan of unity four dominant citadels to insure and preserve world freedom at any cost. Each individual, regardless of race, color or creed must be guaranteed: Religious Freedom Eeonomie Freedom Politieal Freedom Soeial Freedom Through each of these channels we, the nation's next gener- ation of leaders, must endeavor to pursue liberal, tolerate and benev- olent justification for ourselves and our posterity. Engaged in this valiant effort to secure world freedom, this generation cannot forget the principles of the immortal humanitar- ian and uniher, Abraham Lincoln, or his vision when he endorsed a policy of malice toward none and charity for all. Only men of intelligence and understanding can solve the problems which have inflicted this calamity on mankind. This is a challenge to the youth of America!

A great responsihility rests upon your shoulders. I know we can depend upon you to fulfill the responsibilities with which you are faced. Some of you graduates unquestionably will continue your education following your graduation. I whole-heartedly recommend that each of you continue your education if it is at all possihle. Education is something that no one can take away from you. These are trying days. You must he prepared for what- ever eventualities come your way. Some of you may he called upon to serve your country. This indeed will he a great honor. What are we fighting for? We are fighting for democ- racy, which is freedom of religion, speech and press. Each of these freedoms is important, hut a Godless country is one controlled hy a dictator such as Hitler, and we in America pride ourselves with our freedom of religion. Let us all put our shoulders to the wheel and go all out in our effort to de- feat those forces who are attempting to alienate those free- doms which have made America great. We love our Ameri- ca hecause of these freedoms. Each of us needs our religion. God hless each of you. fm -3' FATHER FLANAGAN Q i Founder and Director of Boys' Home, ' Boys' Town, Nebraska. Jima! Z. Www i . . . C177 SUPERINTENDENT Genial Mr. Herbert E. Wrinkle, curly red-haired city school superintendent, is completing his second year as head of the Okla- homa City public schools. This experience is not a new one since he held the same position in Bartlesville for eight years prior to coming here. Both his daughters are outstanding in Classen activities. Geral- dine, better known as Gerry, is a member of the graduating class and was chosen basketball sweetheart. Charlotte, a junior, is a mem- ber of the Honor Math group and the orchestra, and both girls be- long to the Honor Society, Comes and Courtesy club. Mr. Wrinkle has promoted various improvements in our school including the all-school parties held in the building and a new metal work unit for boys.

Resembling a banana in its ability to bring everyone to a common level is the row of chairs in Mr. Charles S. Wallaceis office. Self-termed the principal vice , he has been dealing the same impartial judge- ment to each culprit, senior or sophomore, large or small, for eleven years. As sponsor of the proctors, he is the major domo of the discipline system and Solomon in all his glory never had to make the many decisions Mr. Wallace hands down in one day. He plays by the same rules during every game however, and that graceful handwriting decides the fate of the just and the unjust with the same Spencer- ian twirl. 'ive THE !-HSTOEV of 6'lf4SSE!V f-5' , The physical shape of Classen may have changed since September 1921 when the first student enrolled, but the spirit that Mr. Anton H. Classen, civic leader, established when he founded a junior high school has only grown deeper in the hearts of students and teachers. It continued to be a junior high school until 1924 when it became a junior and senior high combined. In 1925, it became solely a senior high school. The original building extended from Mr. Charles Gra dy's room to Mr. A. M. Kincaid's and was three stories high. The cafeteria was in the rooms now used for typing on the third Hoot and the library was in -the classroom now occupied by Miss Lucille Willoughby. At this time, the present girls' gym was used as an auditorium. A Because of an increasing number of students, the section containing the present auditorium was annexed. Dur- ing the years the various graduating classes have given curtains for the windows and stage and also the decorations on the walls. The stage included the present band and orchestra room and all the basketball games were played in the auditorium with the stage as a court. 1 Then the cafeteria was changed from the third Hoot' to the space it now occupies and a little later the south wing containing the science department was added. In recent years, the addition of the boys' gym and a girls' locker room has been made. The class of '41 presented a retaining wall for the front lawn. , The first senior class graduated in 1926 with 62 members. The next year the membership was boosted to 225. Last year 648 seniors graduated. Also with a few minor alterations several teachers have remained since the junior high school days. These are Mrs. Edna B. Stevenson, Miss julia Denny, Miss Mary Lawson, Mrs. Anne Nlontague, Mrs. Edna Hedges, Mr. A. M. Kincaid, Miss Della Link, Miss Emma Meneely. Miss Blanche Paul and Miss Bess Snell. Miss Katherine Bragg, Mr. Leo I-Iigbie, Mr. Carroll Smelser and Miss Isalona Carter graduated from Classen and now are instructing in the school of their 'teens.

Clnssen tcacliers are well trained in the four divisions of education: Physical science, literary arts, fine arts and practical arts. Some of them have attended :is many as :I dozen universities at liome or abroad. Classen graduates are now holding important positions all over the world and Part of their success must be attributed to thc fine foundation begun here at Clnsscn.

Not to be outdone by pupils who whizz about on bicycles, these enterprising faculty members leave their cars at home and pedal to school. At the left are Mr. Howard Brown, Mr. Oakley Pittman, Mr. A.

Page 13 1 I Since the faculty now meets regularly only once a month, the teachers hold recreational meetings in the girls' gym on the left-over Tuesdays. Miss Berniece Gordon, Miss Della Link, Miss Iris Baughman and Miss Martha Denny choose to play shuffleboard while others take part in ping-pong, square dancing, badminton or darts. ut We were .... f Mr. Charles Sample, chairman of the safety committee, keeps an eye out for trouble. Part of the teachers' first aid class, grouped in front of the skeletons, are Mrs. Edna B.

It was quite a new sensation for the students to watch the teachers worrying over their tests in Hrst aid.

The young American of today is concerned not only with the question of who shall be the victor in the present world conflict, but also the kind of country and world we shall have when that conflict is ended. We have an abiding faith that our cause is just, and in our own great strength to maintain that cause. But we need to look beyond this crisis. We need to enumerate the things we want, and rededicate ourselves to their preservation or attainment. Primarily we want Liberty-that is what we are fighting to keep. We want political freedom, which means a free government, representative of the common people-you and I-administered by our representatives. ' But our right to representative government-every right we enjoy-carries with it a corresponding responsibility. If we shirk a responsibility for long, we lose the privilege to which it entitles us. And we cannot expect true representa- tion in government unless we intelligently inform ourselves, and then make our constructive wishes known to our repre- sentatives by insistent public demand. We can work out our own answer to this question of the future. In avoiding enslavement by a foreign tyrant we can become strong enough to maintain our own political free- dom. We can practice individual self-reliance. We can in- terest ourselves in the real needs of the community, the state, and the nation, and then do our part to meet those needs. We can retire from public office any official who shows himself unresponsive to our wishes. And we can remember that the price of liberty, which embraces all freedoms, is eternal vigilance. QQ LEON C. PHILLIPS Governor of the State of Oklahoma. ii Student Council Fiery debates and hot discussions feature the Wednesday afternoon meetings of the Student Council. This group is representative of Classen opinion because its members are elected by the stu- dent body and bring in new ideas directly from the advisory groups. Its purpose is to pass rulings for the betterment of student welfare and to decide matters of school policy in so far as its 1,837 population is concerned. This compares in size with a town like Britton, so the governing job is not a small one. Miss Clara Mejfer is sponsor, and Principal Baker is a frequent visitor. 1' Tov PICTURE: FIRST ROW: Theresa Enders, Betty Callahan, Mr, Ira W.

At the present, the main project is to raise enough money to buy some display cases for the hall between the biology rooms. As a start to- watd their goal, they spon- sored a movie. Also thev joined the State Iunior Acad- emy of Science. Page 23 I Page 24 l?ocal lllusa: The National Broadcasting Company's program, Music of American Youth has been in existence nine years. During this year, twenty4nine schools were featured and of this number twenty per cent were colleges and universities. No other choir but ours has received the honor of appearing twice on the pro- gram, once in 1938 and once February 22,0f this year. Each semester the vocal department as a whole gives a full concert and assembly. The fall concert festival, in which 225 took part, presented theuiMikadof'i The fall assembly was the 'iBallad for Americans. This spring 240 singers took part in a festival emphasizing the patriotic theme. Their second as- sembly of the year was the Easter assembly. The program was composed entirely of Easter music with 120 taking part. The Class A vocal contests are closed for the duration, but in four years of entries, we have won top honors for seventeen out of eighteen entries to the state contest and fourteen out of seventeen entries to the nationals. However the department did attend the .state festival at Stillwater this year, directed by George l-lowerton of Northyvesternp Outside of regular school activities, this year the A Cap- pella choir has sung in many assemblies in junior high schools, at Oklahoma University, Oklahoma A. and M., and Edmond State Teachers' College. Also they appeared with the Okla- homa Federal Symphony Orchestrain our own assembly and for the soldiers at Will Rogers Air Base. A great help in the bettering of the music is vocal director Chester Francis' radio recording machine and public address system. Classen is believed to be the only senior high school in the state which owns one. This year about ago students are enrolled in the music department as compared with the 75 enrolled when Mr. Chester Francis, director, first came here.

If' . lnshfmfnental Wlusu: The Classen Orchestra has made first division for the last five years. This year, the contest was cancelled because of the war situ- ation. The instrumental music department has won the grand cham- pion award offered alternately at A. and M. and O. U. during the entire time Mr. Oakley Pittman has been director here. The Classen Concert Band was selected at the state clinic in Stillwater as the outstanding state band. Combined with the orches- tra, it has won the state sweepstakes the past Hve years. The Pep Band is frequehtly called upon, both for school occa- sions and for civic groups, to exucle peppery inspiration. Perhaps their most important activity this year has been to play for trains of departing soldiers. Page 27 Leland Harrison, handsome red-haired drum major of the band, shakes a wicked shake.

This is quite a goal, because the '41 annual re- ceived the All-American honor rating or the highest National Scholastic Press As- sociation award. 14' IN THE PICTURES fon this pagej 1 The smile before the storm lights the face of Shirley Angle as she prepares to join Ruth Thomas and LaVerna Pendleton in work on the organization section. Pausing from their industrious labors for a moment are Ioan Montgomery and Elizabeth Sewell. High atop a ladder, Charleen Kunc happily points to the top of the Orbit thermometer which registers a new all-time record of 927 yearbooks sold this year. Mary Lee Goddard, Thomasina Dyer and Mary Io Lightfoot took only a moment off to smile for the birdie before returning to some tricky lay- outs for feature pages. fOpposite Pagej: Theresa Enders and Eliza- beth Lees, future and present editor of the Clas- sen Life, ask for more work to do. Charles Landon took pictures and Iimmy Brooks wrote the dedication, Our Faith in Free- dom for All. Miss Zona Moore is mama and main inspira- tion for all the staff members.

Iames Barnett is justdooking, thanks. Antionette Burnham and Carol Klick think that Orbit work is great fun and grin their approval. Five healthy happy staff members line up for more work, and they get it. Last, but one of the first in amount of work done, is Richard Meek, who took most of the pictures in the book. His background of flash bulbs is interesting, but note the ice bag on his head and the aspirin at his side, as well as the expression on his face. Wa... - r.., ,.

Like Don Quixote, they have battled with such windmills as wastebaskets, assembly programs and game attendance. Through all this, there has run a constant stream of good times.

Elizabeth Lees, editor, also brought home some bacon by being president of the Qklahoma Inter- scholastic Press Association for the year. fai- COppo.vize Pagej Elizabeth Lees, editor, discusses the merits of a feature Picture for the Life. Thomasina Dyer, circulation head, and Iames Barnett, business manager, talk over the innovation of having no subscriptions, which was adopted the last semester.

He always writes Comment that way. Bill Kugle and Carolyn Storer relax from the rigors of journalism class during sixth hour. Bill Kugle and Richard Meek were the only boys who dared the staff party given by Dolores Killam at her home. However, Elizabeth Sewell, Dee DeEord, Elizabeth Lees, Theresa Enders, Miss Zona Moore, Iudy Hays, Dolores Killam, Iudy Maguire, and Mary Wilbanks didn't miss the rest, judging by the looks of the table. Trudging to their labors are the staff writers. In the lead are Mary Ijee Goddard, Elizabeth Sewell, Nancy Roberts, Iudy Maguire, Doris Dolman, Norma Truss with Patricia Doty, Phyllis Prigmore, Patsy Berry and Dolores Killam following. Ruth Dewey, Dorothy Kamp, Grace Ward, Virginia Carpenter and Patsy Hawk bring up the rear. i Speech Qepaiftmemt Although hampered by transportation troubles, the speech department has sent representatives to district con- tests at Enid, Shawnee, Ada, Edmond, Durant and Good- well. They qualihed for the state Finals in all events. For the first time there will be no national contests this year because of war conditions, but in the state Hnals at Nor- man, Helen Cunningham took third in poetry, Selma Gins- burg second in humorous, Dorothea Grundyfourth in dra- matic, and the participants in the radio play which won sec- ond were: Betty Bob Angerman, Beverly Bird, Lucille Bou- ton, Helen Cunningham, Doris Dolman, Selma Ginsburg, Dorothea Grundy, Iolene l-linman, Dan Hogan, Voyle Scurlock, Edward Miller, Geraldine Riker, Charles Schrameck and Regna Lee Simpson. Betty lean Clark placed first in girls, extemporaneous and second in original oratory, Bill Crowe placed second in boys, extemporaneous, and Bill and lack Iones won second in debate. ii Little Theatre The principal debate teams this year, lack Iones and Bob Head, Walter Gray and lim Horigan, Bruce Scott and Bill Crowe, George Murphey and Bill Aven, have attended invitational meets at Springfield, Mississippi, Cofleyville and Wichita, Kansas, and Edmond, Ada and Shawnee, Okla- homa, where they took second place each time. Debate Coach Mr. Charles E. Grady pointed out that while not equaling last year's brilliant record, he has trained more fu- ture debaters this year than usual. In addition to these contests and the productions put on by the department, Mrs. Elaine Tucker's radio class appears on KOMA weekly with radio plays written by the class. Speech students are frequently used on programs by all tour local stations. Mrs. Tucker's special course in diction is the only one of its kind in the city.

It has been said that most of the countries of the world fear the peace even more than they do the war. To understand this fear, one has only to realize the im- portant problems the post-war world will face: repair of the vast physical destruction of the warg reestablishment of nor- mal livingg organization of international political life, recon- ciliation of political nationalism' with international restoration of tolerance and faith in a world indoctrinated with hate and fear. The things that divide us are trivial as compared with the things that 'unite us. An American soldier wounded on a battlefield in the Far East owes his lifecto the Iapanese scien- tist, Kitasato, who isolated the bacillus of tetanus. A Russian soldier saved by a blood transfusion is indebted to Land- steiner, an Austrian. A German soldier is shielded from typhoid fever with the help of a Rusian, Metchnikoff. A Dutch marine in the East Indies, is protected from malaria because of the experiments of an Italian, Grassi, while a Brit- ,ish aviator in North Africa escapes death from surgical in- fection because a Frenchman, Pasteur, and a German, Koch, elaborated a new technique. ' The Bill of Rights will outlast Mein Kampfn just as the centers of the world will once again be centers of candid and fearless thinleing-homes of the untrammeled and un- afraid, where there is liberty to learn, opportunity to teach and power to understand and this earth will be a place to live in instead of a place to fight and freeze and starve in. THE ROCKEFELLER FOUNDATION. BA KET Advancing to the semi-finals of the state tournament, the basketball team, coached by Mr. Carroll Smelser, finished first in the intra-city league and first in the mid- state contest. Smelser seems to follow the knack of Stillwater's famous coach, Hank lba, A in turning out well-balanced outfits with no spe- cial player to pin down. Finishing their regular schedule with 21 wins and 4 defeats, the squad looked forward to the championship of the regional.tournament as well as that of the state ' d the contest. They won the regional cup an got to s mi-finals of the state tournament where they were e defeated by l-loldenville, who won the state contest.

HEY RE STATE SEMI-FINALISTS Coach Carroll Smelser's Comet cage team had their best season-since 1937. The Comets annexed the city title, the mid-state conference championship, took the re- gional title after two close games with Central and El Reno and went to the semi-finals in the state tournament where they lost to I-loldenville 34-32 after two overtime periods. Holdenville then went on to win the state title. ln conference competition the Comets won eight and lost two out of ten league games, finishing with a percentage of .8oo. They lost one close game to Central and one to Enid, but later avenged these defeats by large margins. Over the full season route, the Comets won 25 games and lost 5. Included in the Comets' string of victories were two wins over Tulsa Will Rogers, last yearls state champions, and three wins over our bitter rivals, the El Reno lndians. The only team that was able to down the Comets twice during the season was the powerful Tulsa Central team. They defeated the Comets 17-16 and-25-243 both games being decided in the last II seconds of play. High-light of the season were two victories over the traditional rivals, the Central Cardinals. One was by the decisive score of 33-18, and the other 25-23. Twice during the year the Classen team rose to dizzy heights. ln the second game with Central during the playing season, after losing to the Cardinals at Central 17-14, the Comets went out on their home court before 3ooo fans and turned a de- termined Central team 33-18. Never was the Comet defense more impregnable, never was the Comet floor-work smoother, and never were Classen fans so enthusias- tic. The other two heights were reached by the Comets when they again seared the Cardinals 25-23 in the regional tournament to win the city championship and then the next night defeated the El Reno Indians 27-25 in the finals of the regional to ualif 1 for the state tournament. q Plt the close of the season the Comets dominated the All-City and All-State selections when they were awarded two first team berths on each. Charles Pugsley, forward, and Iimmy Mitchell, guard, were given first team positions on both selections. Five graduating seniors, Keller-t, Pugsley, Mitchell, Kenworthy and Suggs, will be lost to the Comet team next year. Coach Smelser recommended seven players at the end of the year for letters. These boys are pictured around the page starting at the right, George Kenworthy, Charles Pugsley, D. Riley, Roy Cope, Iimmy Mitchell, Frank Kellert and lack Nicholson.

Games with Central are always fine for the rooter because of the intense rivalry. Classen won this game 18-7 under adverse weather conditions. Charles McDonald, W.

Under the direction of Mr. Frederick House, the boys learn to do sheet and metal wonk. In case you have been wondering why they make so many and varied noises, they are making lamps, smoking stands, strong boxes, and practically every other known metal gadget. Rugged individualist lack Allen is learning from pretty Ruth Ann Shepard how to make the kind of pies mother used to make. He evidently doesn't mind being the only man in the third hour Cookology class. Page jo J P' has been ADDED Among the unusual classes here are those such as machine bookkeeping, office practice, consumer goods, creative writing, journalism, international relations, social problems, metal work, French and Spanish conversation, slide rule, elementary engineering, hygiene, first aid, high school Problems, stage-craft and cor- rective speech. These classes are all a Part of theidaily schedule and do not include any of the numerous extra-curricular activities. Mice hold no terrors for Pat Dawson, Muggsie Dalton and Miss Nell Guthrie. They are studying the effect of vitamin deficiencies upon the little rascals. Mrs. Edna Hedges and Mr. T. R. Stemen are interested in this project, too, as heads of the Vitamins for Victory campaign. As Proof of the necessity of vitamins, one of the mice passed away recently.

This is one more example of the progressive methods of teaching which Classen is adopting all the time. Mrs. Edna B.

Look again, those aren't sardines, but stu- dents who think the nice thing about an air raid drill is that we don't have to brave the elements as in fire drills. lVlr. Charles Sample, as head of the Student Safety council and chairman of the Safety committee, has supervised the air raid pre- cautions. Ar the alarm, three short bells and one long, which stand for the three clots and a dash of victory, the students march out of the rooms and line up in the First and second floor halls. A section was assigned to each teacher, and prac- tice drills have been held from time to time. Donlt be frightened, Louiezon Killingsworth, it won't bite-it's only two and one half gallons of Hre extinguisher. Louiezon is wisely examin- ing it, in view of the new importance these handy gadgets have assumed. Page 72 xfgw Qt:-. AQ , : J 4 Q X 2 P v wxfw ':. w nf ' X L i t g , 2 5' 1 4 4 5:1 , M ,mm .,.,.

Student I1'1ixers The student mixers were inaugurated by the Classen P.-T.A. two years ago for the purpose of providing whole- some recreation for the students. Under the leadership of Mrs. Clyde Harrison, president, facilities for merriment are plentiful and free of charge. There are entertainments of various sorts offered on the Little Theatre stageg the social dancing djartment is in the girls' gymg and people stomp the square dances in the cafeteria. If the girl friend demands food, as is frequently the case, food can be had at a nominal price. Tables for ping pong are set up in the halls. These get-togethers Hll the need of social activities to round out the characters of the participants, according Principal Baker.

As idle students have found, there is much to be seen from the second and third Hoor windows. The state captiol, for instance, or the university, or the oil fields. Below is an example of the 3 oyclock rush, which for some reason is much more enthusiastic than the 8:30 rush. This same billowing around lockers goes on between classes, too. If the jam were multiplied by fifteen, the result would be a picture of what happens all over school, however, there are few accidents. 31 CLASSEN, too Because of pop, cokes, candy bars, and sundry eats, the Red Cross booths were very popular between classes during the annual Iunior Red Cross drive. Left to right are Doris Stagg, Volney Farnsworth, Ruth lane Long, Iohn Pratt, lack Whitbeclc and Charlotte Wrinkle. The Hell Hound pledges, who were forced to come to school minus the lower half of their apparel, attracted a lot of attention wherever they went.

In answering the call for model airplanes to be used in army, navy, and civilian training, Ralph Holmans, Donald Bean, Alvin Pendleton, Bob Stippich, Bob Osborn, Volney Farnsworth and Richard Iohnson, under the direction of Mr. Frank E. McKee, have built dozens of models which required approximately twenty-five hours each to com- plete, About 500,000 of these models, which are scaled one inch to seventy-two inches, are needed. The flowers that bloom in the spring, tra la, are soon picked and worn to school in girls' hair, as typified by the picture at left.
