The Hi-Y girl-reserves spreads at the Y.M.C.A. and Y.W.C.A. during the winter and spring enjoyed large attendances and were considered to have been all-around SLICCCSSCS. The Hi-Y's contributions to the war effort were con- ducting the waste paper campaign for one week and lead- ing work for increase in the paper brought all year. Athletically, Creston led every Hi-Y in the city, taking the championship in the basketball loop formed by the Hi-Y teams of each school in the city.

Echo Greater efficiency seems to be the keynote of success these days, and, not to be behind the times, the Echo staff made some drastic revisions. The former managing editor was promoted to Editor-in-Chief, with the duty of coordinating all efforts of other editors. Advanced to the vacated position of managing editor was the news editor, and so it went, down to the last copy reader. As is the custom, the annual Subscription Campaign was opened with an assembly featuring a brief, humorous skit, followed by the introduction of the publication staffs. Another huge undertaking was assumed by this year's staff, when they volunteered as host to the Inter-staff Banquet, a city-wide high school affair, held here on March 31. The cam- paign skit was again presented to show other schools why Creston subscription list is the largest in the city. 1fe.ff0n'J Czzmpfire Groups Campfire girls in this group have successfully advanced in ranks of Trail Seeker, Woodgatherer, Fire- Maker and Torchbearer.

Sponsored by Mrs. Sadie Stowell and Mrs. Louise Verdier, the club began the year by selling armbands to be worn by the football enthusiasts. The annual Christmas Party was held December 12, 1941, in the girls gym. Exchanging gifts, dancing, and enjoying refreshments provided the entertainment.

Bmw and 661270725 The Bars and Chevrons Club was organized under the guidance of Sergeant Ver Bust. There are four Bars and Chevrons Clubs in the city. They are at Creston, South, Union, and Central. Membership of the club is open only to commis- sioned officers, non-commissioned officers, and girl sponsors of companies, G and H of Creston. The idea of the club is to provide for social get-to- gethers of the officers and sponsors. The club meets every Tuesday night after school and has an official club pin with a design similar to the club letter. Cadet Lt. Col. jack Chalmers, second bat- talion commander, was elected president and Cadet Capt. Wood, commander of company G, was elected vice president. The secretary was sponsor Gloria Drake, and sponsor Barbara Scharlow is treasurer. Lt. Arthur Kimber was elected Sergeant of Arms. The profits from the Military Ball were divided between the units in the city. Besides this, the club held a dance and a roller skating party to make some money. Several successful social events were held by the club during the year. Each member is awarded a school letter of a special design. Page 76 l First row: J. Chalmers, L. Wood, A. Kimber, R.

Czfarfon R. O. T . The new units organized this last year at Creston consist of campanies G and H. Each company has four girl sponsors, who drill and are graded with the company in inspection. Three inspections were held besides the federal inspection, commonly known as Field Day, when all the companies in the city competed against each other on May 29, at 6:30 P.M. The best company, squad, commissioned offi' cer, non-commissioned officer, and private in competition received recognition. The first pub- lic appearance of the Creston units was in the Armistice Day Parade. Both companies partici- pated and marched from lower Monroe to Fulton Street Park. An annual dance is sponsored by the mem- bers of the R.O.T.C, units and is called the military ball. This year the ball was held at Union High School, November 15.

X K - 1 ' Football Now comes the time when the performances of Creston's football athletes lie behind them, and their future in obscurity. As we sit and gloat over the brilliancy of their deeds, many more of those fond memories arise and seem light of the sports parade. For instance, there is the impressive way in which our varsity squad concentrated their football barrage against the stern competition for city league laurels. Two road trips for the team resulted in a O-O deadlock at Holland, and a decisive 25-O thumping from the big Muskegon Reds. This experience, plus the able coaching of Martin Van Wingen caused the Polar Bears to turn loose an attack against Ottawa which won them their first city encounter, 7-O. joe Noorthoek re- turned the ball on a kick by Horn for the tally. A luckless Central squad was the victim of a 12-6 count as the Bears made it two straight. The Home4Coming game with the Tech Wildcats found the Creston pass attack click- ing for the winning seven points margin. Futile attempts were made to halt the Catho- lic powerhouse, against whom Creston's lone tally in the 13-6 count was made by Bob Harri- son on an off-tackle play. The Polar Bears absorbed their second league loss 13-O when the Red Hawks of Union trampled the north-enders in their attempt to emerge as city champs. A 26-12 thumping was received in the sea- son finale against South. Creston's lone candidate on the all-city squad was fiuid motion joe Noorthoek, stellar back. Top: Noorthoek swamped in Tech game.

Bmkefbazll Creston's cagers opened the current season on the road by successfully tangling with a strong Grand Haven squad 18-7. They then met an avalanche of teams who possessed too many big guns and were unable to pick up a second victory till seven encounters later when they struck pay territory against a taller, faster Central aggregation for a 25-23 victory. The second and major city league victory came for the Crestonites when they defeated South High's Tro- jans in a game packed with thrills and rough-house tactics, by the score of 31-29 to end the season. Although few games were won throughout the sea- son, there was present on Coach Schrump's five, that fighting spirit which characterizes all Creston teams. Kneeling: D. Newberry, H. Truckle, K.

Tmck Creston's 1942 cinder pounders, with a surprising amount of balance in all events, reaped laurals during the past sea- son which classed them as the best in the school's history. In dual meet competition the Bear team went roclceting with victories over Union, Catholic, Central, and Tech. Team representatives reaped first place in the strong com- petition at the Kalamazoo Relays. A total of 59 points gave the squad first place standing in the city Regional contest held at Houseman Field. With only South remaining on their dual meet schedule the team swamped Ottawa 90-32. 4th row: H. Bont, R. Daly, D. O. Stuck, H. Haynes, F. Calkins, P. Van Ess, C. Bulson, R. Quick. 5th row: R.

Slack, manager. Baseball With a team composed almost entirely of juniors, Coach Henry Schrump led his nine through a successful season. In the season's starter against Catholic, the Bears showed a weakness at the plate, losing 6-2. Against Union, Creston was on the short end of a 8-3 count, but later a possible for- feit was considered due to the play ofan over-age player on the Union nine. Van Luyn displayed some cool, air-tight pitching when the Bears defeated Ottawa 5-3 at Briggs. The thrill game of the season was the Tech game, when Ed Stefaniak hit a homer in the seventh inning with Jenson on base, and a tie score. The team met each school's nine twice during the course of the season. f Steady hurlers for the team were Larson, Van Luyn, and Turpening.

They started the current season by meeting Christian's golfers at High- land, and closing with play in the regional and state contests. Tmnzr Coach Robert Linden had a nucleus of four returning members from last year's squad to build his 19425 tennis team around. In their first encounter against the Otta,waQi1ndians, the netmen were bolstered by the performances of Marvin Flanders, Dave Peterson, and Alva Oslin. ,, , The entire team will remain intact for next year, except Flanders, who has been lost through graduation.

In a spirit of friendly competition and sportsman- ship, the girls of each grade took part in the various activities, including relays, folk dances, stunts, and the colorful American square dance, climaxed by the pre- sentation of the cups to the managers of the jubilant seniors and eighth graders by Mrs. Enright, supervisor of the physical education department. Flowers were presented to Mrs. Griffin and Mrs. Butterfield for their efforts at making the meet a success.

Under the direction of the officers, and with the help of their sponsor, Mrs, Bruce Griffin, the club was active in the pursuit of both pleasure and business. A hayride was held for the members and their guests, at l-larmonls farm, December 13. This was followed by an ice cream sandwich sale to help raise money for the annual girls meet. On March 2 Mrs. Griffin held a spread at her home for the chairmen of the various activities in the meet and on April 16 this entertaining event was held. Aside from these club undertakings, individual groups have participated in hikes, skating parties, picnics, and various other enjoyable sports.
