HOPE that if, in future years, you dust off this book and once more turn through its pages, you may again, in your memory, be brought back to wander through Cushing High School. If, at that distant time, the sight of these pictures gives you a thrill of recognition, this book will have gone a long way toward achieving its aim. There are no doubt errors; in such an undertak- ing they are always inevitable. We can only trust that you will be open-minded in your judgment. May this book be a lasting reminder of happy days, good friends, and pleasant places. We give you the 1952 Vivacity. — THE STAFF —5— To every C. H. S. student these walks who treads or enters these doors Who Plays 1 J. student is dedicated Library Desk Sylvia Johnson, Mary Esther Churchill, and Janice Erickson, student librarians, answer the numerous questions of Jo Stoncciphcr, an unidentified but indus- trious student, Sally Ketring, Marvin Bradley, and Johnny Hilyard. The library is doing a rushing business. Mr. Yancy has probably given one of his notorious American history assignments; or per- haps English book report deadline is ap- proaching. RusK An exciting pep rally always precedes a football or basket- ball game. Today a rousing pep assembly is being held in the auditorium. Judging from these facial ex- pressions, no one seems worried concerning the outcome of the fame, especially the Tigerettes. However, Carl Allday seems in a pensive mood. —10— Administration The usual scene in C. H. S. office every morning around 1:44. Looks natural doesn’t it? Has the last bell rung?” May I have an absence slip? Did somebody find my history book?” May I j ? • , rth h°ur, for denttu ( ) appointment?” —and hundreds more. You know them all. But our principal and registrar patiently and efficiently answer them all. This page paid for by LEFT TO RIGHT: W. A. Giorde, Clerk; Lewis C. Corey, Member; Rex E. Hergreves, President; Allen E. Gould, Vice-President; Robert IT. Dens. Member; Williem D. Csrr, Superintendent. The Cushing Board ot Education DECAUSE a city cannot remain static, problems of school buildings, better facilities, additions and improve- ments can never be entirely solved. The Board of Education in 1945 outlined a ten year school improvement program which would provide a systematic program of building, redecoration, replacement, and repair. School buildings, more than any other type of structure, should be kept in first-class condition; there is no economy in any other program. The major projects in the school improvement program have been the erection of a new Booker T. Wash- ington School at a cost of $22 5,000, the replacing of the condemned Harrison Elementary School with a new modern fire-proof structure, and the installation of modern indirect lighting in all schools to replace, in many cases, one small light in each room. All schools have been completely redecorated in colors which blend and harmonize with each particular classroom. New seating has been provided in all primary classrooms and in many other school departments and rooms. New equipment has been purchased for the high school departments, which have been remodeled on up-to- date lines. These are a few of the many school improvements which the Board of Education has accomplished in the past few years. The coming years promise to show additional progress. Cushing’s schools are operated for the children. Money has been diverted from non-essentials and used to improve facilities, better teaching, and other direct services to children.

His pleased expression is due, perhaps, to the wide public response to the observance of National Edu- cation Week in Cushing Schools, climaxed by High School Open House and the dedication of Cush- ing's new separate school, Booker T. Washington, on November 18, Iff I. Mr. Rush, our principal, chats with two C.H.S. students. Gene Pound and Paul Schnack. Visits to the office” are seldom embar- rassing situations but pleasant oc- casions as this picture proves. Obviously, no serious breach of etiquette is involved here. Our registrar. Miss Weaver. Graciousness and tolerance are her traits. But she is efficient and alert, qualities which make her rather difficult to handle at times. This picture illustrates only one of her many methods for finding out things. Yon isy he thoNlJ he in tchooi right now?

Mike proudly points to the gleaming 1950-51 junior high -A Conference basketball trophy and the senior high basketball Champions S-A Conference 1950.” Miss Johnson's second year home economics class serves a luncheon in the home ec dining room to representatives from civic clubs and organizations. Here Mr. Carr announced plans for Cushing Schools observance of National Education Week. —18— This is the physics class. Paul is demonstrating the path of freely falling bodies; Gene is pointing out parts of a pendulum; and Marvin’s airplane has to do with the study of forces affecting airplanes; or did they just bring their toys to class? The Spanish I class is playing their guessing game Quien Soy Yo?” (Who Am I?) Henry Webb is It and must guess who he is by asking Jane Baker questions (in Spanish, of course). He can do it too! The profesora listens proudly. —20— The string section of the orchestra which received the highest rating, Superior, in state contest last year appears here. This picture is actual proof that Mr. Schilde demands absolute attention from his students. The Mixed Chorus is diligently rehearsing for the Thanksgiving festival at Stillwater. George seems more interested in the camera than the music. —21— udf ;lkj. All Typing I students mim go through these drill� in the process of learning the keyboard. It must be an ordeal judging from these students' expressions, particularly Carolyn Hermanstoffer’s. These vocational woodwork boys are shining the knobs of one of the chests from the five bedroom suites made by the students. Mr. Godfrey looks on and sees to it they make no mistake. These future bookkeepers seem absorbed in their accounts. Nancy Vright has just asked Mrs. Rainwater the nerer ending question, It doesn’t come out right, what am I to do?” So teacher explains how to make her credits and debits balance. These junior news-sleuths” are working on their notebooks, proof reading The Cushing Oiler”, and trying to get their news stories finished by deadline. Mr. Pote helps Mantha with her story. 2)— Can you prove that triangle C. A. D. it congruent to triangle C. B. E.? Mitt Clark thowt Robert Gould and Wilene Gatton how to prove thit proportion.

A picture of the luncheon is elsewhere in the Vivacity. From the guests’ pleased expressions, the pies and rolls tasted as good as they look here. Future seamstresses learn secret of straight seams. Mrs. Woods shows Freda Owensby how to set the seam guide as Gloria Brookshire looks on. rhis page paid for by CUSHING LUMBER CO. SINCLAIR REFINERY These biology students are extracting chlorophyll and other pigments from green leaves and testing for the presence of sugar and starch. This process seems to astonish Monette Martin. The vocational printing boys are busy setting type and running the press. Are the loud shirts the badge of the printers Union? —26— Don Kenny, Donald Sparkman, R. B. Harris, Glen Hilyard, members of the Boys' Home Living Class are receiving help from Miss Johnson in icing the cake, baked by the boys as a group project. Cake was later consumed with pleasure by these chefs. All these students of Miss Graham’s English II class seem interested in their study of Silas Marncr. All, except Bob Mitchell. Wonder what he is thinking about? —27— Mr . Demeritt’s second hour eighth grade math cla� doe busy work” at the board. Marsha Gelbhar looks as if she knows the right answer.

Senior High Basketball The over-all record of 1) wins against 12 defeats is not a spectacular season total but it is by far from being a lopsided losing season. A . 5 20 season is not bad in any- body’s books. Cushing amassed 96) points while their opponents tallied 925. This gives Cushing 38.52. points per game and their opponents, 37. This, in itself, does not show that we had a bad season. In fact, holding the opposition to an average of 57.04 points per game is a great brand of defensive basketball. Coach Harvey Slade started the season almost from scratch with only two returning lettcrmcn— co-captains Paul Schnack and Don Kenney. Only three seniors were out for basketball. Great help was given by juniors Wayne Cooper, Jerry King, and John Key. Playing in veteran style were sophomores Bob Burden, Lee Cobb, and Bobby Howell. This may be a preview of great teams to come. Towering Don Kenney, 6 feet 5 inch center, led all Tigers in scoring with 306 points, an average of 12.2 per game. He was also the leading scorer in the tough North- ern Eight conference with 201 points, an average of 14 points per game. He received great support in the scoring column from sophomore forward, Bobby Howell, and junior forward, Wayne Cooper, who tallied 172 points and 161, respectively. Co-Cuplm i.

Student Council Officers The student council is composed of four representatives from each class and the presidents of each class. Thus, all students are fairly represented. They are counseled (not dictated to) by Mrs. Hobbs, who understands young people and believes in their integrity. They are aided by the administrators who believe that students are people with the right of expression in matterspertaining to themselves. In student council young people can learn democratic practices. Very soon they learn to select good representatives and to realize that popularity is not the sole qualification of a good officer. The representatives learn to express the desires of their constituents and to report back to them. Officers come to realize that obligations go with honors; the student body learns correct election procedure. The student council has four uses. First, it can channel constructive ideas into useful projects. Second, it is an excellent safety-valve for releasing peeves of the radicals. Third, it improves school pride, morale, and school spirit. And last, it fosters better student-teacher relationships. C. H. S. Student Council meets every Monday morning first hour.

The Future Teachers of America is an organization to which any sophomore, junior, and senior is entitled to belong if he or she desires to be a teacher. The Cushing Chapter is named the Jennie Robertson F. T. A. after the first teacher in Cushing. The sponsor is Hazel Graham. The roll consists of approximately $6 young people who plan to enter the teaching profession. The group observes in the city grade schools several times during the year. A semi-formal initiation is held at the beginning of each school year. Membership in the F. T. A. is very profitable to young future teachers.

It was sweet revenge for the local speech team, which missed sweepstakes a year ago by a single point. We are justly proud of our drama department.

World War II was an event of the past when the class of 1952 began its junior high school career in September 1946. Until two years ago the class enjoyed high school life undisturbed by the actuality of war. But now the world has changed. The Korean war has created a future full of doubt and no one knows just what’s ahead. For the boys, the prospect of the draft means uncertainty. For the girls, the future will be different in other respects. This is a time that each of us should ask ourselves the question, What must I do to uphold the traditions of America? We must be an influence for good in our own homes, in the civic and social activities of our com- munities, and we must carry over high ideals of honor and decency into public affairs. For America will endure just as long as the ideals and principles of its founders remain dominant in the hearts of its people. It is the task of today’s youth and the youth that follow us to keep America great. Under God’s guidance we must strive for a better world, where nations live with other nations in justice and tolerance, unclouded by war or threats of war.
