The Panthers started off with a good season and
it looked as thoufzh they would have a highly success-
ful year. But their hopes dropped for they hit a game
losing streak. They just couldn't find the basket.
However, the Panthers couldn't be kept down and
they roared back to life at the Atlantic game and
from there they've kept going. When this was writ-
ten Creston was entering the Sub-State at Atlantic.
The Panthers were a short team this year aver-
aging about five foot ten. They were fast and played
ball that was very outstanding. The team, the varsity
squad,was composed of six seniors whose pictures are
on this page and six juniors. Coach Chambers is thus
building up a new group of boys to replace the out-
going seniors.

' The Creston C Club was reor-
ganized late in the spring of 1947. A
very successful dance was held under
the sponsorship of the club.
This year the C Club is plan-
ning another dance which, in our ex-
pectations, will excel the previous one.
Besides anticipating another dance
the C Club sponsored the Home-
cominsr program and put on a Coney
Island feed during Christmas vacat-
ion.

The two main purposes of the Thespians is to pro-
mote dramatic arts in secondary schools and to give op-
portunity to those who wish to make dramatics a life-
long profession.
The name Thespians was derived from a Greek act-
or named Thespis. Thespis was the first known actor to
use masks to represent different characters and emot-
ions.

The Crest Staff has worked lone and hard to produce this year-book. Many problems bobbed up, some at very
inopportune times, but each was surmounted. Besides the regular members of the staff, there were a number of
people who worked diligently behind the scenes and to whom we are very grateful. In spite of all our troubles, how-
ever, there was a lot of fun in doing our work. We hope that you get as much enjoyment out of reading this year's
Crest as We did in producing it.

There ure some people who are serving the school in ways which are seldom noticed because they are
so very obvious. They are the ones who assist in the office, work at the desk in the library, turn the hall
lights on and off, and run the movie projector. At the end of the year, a special Service award pin is giv-
en to the students who have aided the school in these ways.

The mixed chorus, under the direction of Mrs. Forest Whipp, is composed of seventy students. The
boys meet during the seventh period on Monday, and the girls have glee club on Tuesday. Both groups
combine to form the mixed chorus on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.
The officers of the chorus, elected last fall, are John Weresh, presidentg Dave Ekblad, vice president,
Marilyn Shinn, Secretary, and Georgeann Bartle, Treasurer.
The large group sang three numbers for the South Central Teacher's Meeting in October, and later
gave a Christmas concert on December eighteenth. This latter pro'1ram ranged from the simple, well-
loved carol to the renowned choruses from Handel's Messiah.
On February twenty-fifth and twenty-sixth, the chorus observed the high spot of the year, the sev-
enth annual choral Festival. This year the guest conductor was D. M. Swarthout, Dean of the School of
Fine Arts and Director of'Choral Groups at the University of Kansas, Lawrence, Kansas. Nine schools
were invited to participate in this very educational enterprise and the final concert was, indeed, thrilling.
All three of the large groups are planning to enter the Pre-state Contest to be held on April tenth.
There are also fourteen vocal soloists going out for contest, in addition to the four small groups.
Here's success for the vocal music department this year and every year!
