Miss Gibbons, one of the fi1'Sl2 teachers of Davis Tech, resigned at Christmas, 1943, on account of illness in her family. When Davis Tech first started, Miss Gibbons was the inspiration and the guid- ing light of many of our part-time boys and girls. The returned soldiers of World War l on entering Davis Tech always found Miss Gibbons willing to coach them over their hard spots, The splendid library that Davis Tech boasts is due to the Willingness of Miss Gibbons to give extra time outside of school hours and to her persistent demand for the support of students and school authorities. She was consulted freely in the design of the new library and no book or magazine was purchased Without her consent ln the resignation of Miss Gibbons, Davis Technical High School lost one of the best teachers and most loyal supporters it has ever known. She did much to raise the educational standard of the school and to sell the good Work that was being done by the teachers. 2 1 W To the Seniors Of 19442 LK, 1 Although the Seniors of l944 have been tempted during the , ,Y last two years to leave their school work and enter industry or the armed forces, you have resisted that temptation. I want you to know that the school feels that you will be more valuable to your country and to yourself for having fin- ished the course you started four years ago. You will be well prepared to hold up your end of the serious conflict that is now going on in the world. I wish you all success in whatever you may undertake. I also wish to emphasize that if you will come to see us or to write to us you will find us willing to do everything in our power to assist you in any line of work or endeavor which you are trying to do. Wg GEORGE B. FRAZEE, IR. Principal. ll I These past four years, l in which you have learned to work and to play, have been l happy and profitable years for you and Davis Tech, My best F wishes go with the Class of 1944 as you leave high school to enter the armed or civilian services. I know you are proud to be a part of the great tradi- tion of service that is back of our school, and that you will strive to uphold the high ideals and standards maintained by our alumni. We are proud of you. We who remain here in school will work, direct, advise, and cooperate in all the undertakings of the students of Davis Tech, so that more young men and women will become loyal, working Americans.

Yes, this moment is one we have long waited for, Yet whose arrival we truly dread, For it closes a door on our frivolous days, And opens to the duties ahead. By Ruth Poplaski 1 'Tis true that not all oil our number will win fame, 'Tis true we know not lwhat is in store, done, Iust better than ever before. But we know that supcess will be ours when we've We venture lar into this confusing new world, Now wom and torn with trouble and strife, But locked in our hearts is cr memory of school, That we'll cherish the fest of our life. Glafu Sang Though we scan the future, We are longing for the past, We hate, to leave with just a memory. But we leave with pride in all the knowledge That we gained, Knowing a success 'twill help us be. So this Class of Forty-four Lingers on but little more.

Carl Phillips Doreen Thompson - l Laughter was the theme of the evening when Tech went to MEET UNCLE SALLY, the threeract comedy presented on Decmber l6 at South High Auditorium. Ben and Betty Blaine tPeter Spanier and Donna Holwerdal invite Miss Dorinda Durant fBeverly Grootersb and their liances, Bob and Elaine Durant tWayne Wright and Geraldine Czerewl to meet their mile lionaire uncle, William Hawkins fErwin Zuraskil. While waiting for their guests to arrive, their cousin, Sally Sherwood tMary lane Takusl, comes over to borrow some of Bens clothes to wear in her college play, lenny fCornelia Brummelj, the Swedish maid, opens the door for the Cockney butler, Snorkins lBichard Byskol, hired to impress Aunt Dorinda. A telegram is received saying that Uncle Bill is delayed, and as Ben and Betty frantically pace the floor, Sally prances in, complete in the full regalia of a man of about fifty. After some fast talk by Ben and Betty, she reluctantly agrees to impersonate Uncle Bill, and before she can change her mind, Bob, Elaine, and Aunt Dorinda arrive, and she is dragged in to be introduced, Aunt Dorinda is determined to marry Uncle Bill, even to the extent of getting Beverend Wright lMarvin DeYoungl and the license. Sally is determined to avoid any marital entcinglements. But before she knows what she is doing she is engaged to llthe old hen To further complicate matters, Snorkins calls Dr. Snodgrass CDonald Nelsonl, an osteopath, to give Ben a treatment, He mistakes Sally for Ben, and before she can be rencued, he discovers her identity. ln the midst of explanations, Miss Muggs fCassie Prezkopl, dean of the college, is announced. Sally is introduced as Uncle Bill, and Miss Muggs' time is taken up trying to get money for the college. The doorbell rings and in walks Uncle Bill. Aunt Dorinda storms in, discovering him to be a childhood sweetheart. He proposes, is accepted, and finds out that he has a rival. He threatens to exterminate him, but when he tries to catch Sally, he is involved in a fight for his life. After several explanations, Ben gets Elaine, Bob gets Betty, Aunt Dorinda gets her man, and Miss Muggs gets Silly. Everyone is happy.

The members of the staff with much difficulty finally found it possible to put out a Beacon this year. Wartime restrictions and limitations caused much of the material to be cut down, but with an unguenchable desire for a yearbook, the Beacon Staff succeeded in putting this one out. lt was rather difficult for the staff because many worked on the Beacon at different periods. This did not stop an anxious group of students, however, who never know the word i'Failure. Back and forth, from the art room to Mr. Wilcox's room the material seemed to travel. If it wasn't in one room, it surely was in the other, and so it went. lt seems that this year a record was made -- having 554 underclassman pictures taken in 240 minutes, This record was established through the cooperation of the teachers in sending the students at the proper time, and we wish to thank them, Also, our thanks are extended to Mr. Holmberg, who took the athletic pictures. The easy and the difficult times were always most enjoyable to the staff, and it was really a great pleasure to publish this Beacon. 33 X. x..-f FRONT ROW Miss Schneider, general adviser: E. lohnson, D.

During this time, the following platform was pledged by the staff: CU To lend our support to Tech's war effort 10070. C21 To serve as a tie between our boys in service and their school, and between students, faculty, parents, and community. C33 To report to our readers an accurate, complete account of school news. 14D To strengthen school spirit. CSD To promote cooperation among the various classes, departments, and extra-curricular organizations by revealing their common interests. 16D To foster a lively interest in school activities. Besides featuring departmental and extra-curricular activities, a new column, i'Stars and Stripes, presents news of former Tech boys and teachers who are in the armed forces. Pictures taken by the staff photographer, a feature in each issue on the cure riculum of a shop or department, and membership of the National Scholastic Press Asso- ciation contributed to the progress of the school paper. Much credit should be given to Miss Schneider, the editorial adviser, who has done a great deal in making the Technologian a success. 34 .INV fi ,.1u ., ' 'HX' FPYV ' .

As the Beacon went to press the band was again preparing the final touches on the numbers that were to be played in the Annual Spring Concert. No efforts that would make the I44 performance surpass all others have been spared. ln spite of the fact that Uncle Sam and the armed forces have called some of the best players -from many sections, Tech can boast of having one of the finest bands in many a year. When one stops to consider that at the time Mr. Davis came to Tech in l926, there were only seven members in the band, and today the concert band numbers 60 players and is nearing its goal of a perfect symphonic band, he will realize how far it has advanced. There are also l25 junior band mem- bers who are Working hard daily to fit themselves for a berth in some section of the concert band. Again, as of other years, the band has had a full schedule of appearances, including civic parades, football games, assemblies, the colorful joint Christmas program, the senior play, and to top it off, the Annual Concert, Commencement, and Class Day exercises. Hard work has found its compensation in fun and companionship never to be forgotten by the girls and boys taking instrumental music at Dear Old Tech. .gfJC W CEI wr FHONI' ROW: M. Rudnick, M. L.

The Debate Team under the direction of Mr. Packard was very enthusiastic in their program of activities. Four regular debates had been planned on the subject, Resolved, That Some Form of League ot Nations Should Be Established After the War. Two of these debates were carried out, and two were cancelled. Along with these regular debates, many practice debates were held. Iohn Meengs, the star debater, made many of the practices and regular debates thrilling and interesting. Along with the hard work in preparing these debates, the team had a very enjoyable season. :M ?, O-, .3 FRONT ROW: M. L. Taylor, Miss West, coach, B. Grooters. SECOND BOWL B. Farnham, W. Wright.

'W 1.04 LL: The 1943 Football Season began with the very finest fighting spirit among Tech's Wildcats, even though the team was inexperienced, and had only three lettermen, Roman Kunecki, Ted larmuloski, and lack Syreck, back from the l942 squad. In spite of their inexperience the Wildcats displayed outstanding perform- ance against Catholic Central, who were the city champions, and the last game with the Creston Polar Bears was also praised very highly by sport critics and city newspapers, although the team was generally under-rated throughout the season. Although no games were won, the team never at any time became dis! couraged, but tinished the season with the same excellent spirit in which they started. At all times the student body and players showed loyalty and sportsf rnanship of which we may well be proud. About the middle of the season, the coach, Wendell Emery, volunteered for service and left as a commissioned otlicer in the Navy. Despite this interrupe tion and regret among the players, Coach Brouwer took the job of coaching over, and proved himself very efficient. The number of men coming back for next years team depends a great deal on the war, but Coach Brouwer expects about twelve lettermen back. lf all these players return, next year's season should prove to be a good one. Roman Kunecki, the captain of the team, won a place on the All-City Second Team, Ken Iandernoa, lack Syrek, and Ted Iarmuloski, co-captain, won honorable riention. ffl l'HOlti'l' HOW lf, Lankowski, H Newcomb, 1.

The Basketball Team, although green, progressed throughout the season, and showed up excellently toward the end. The only returning letter man this season was Bob Weeber, who was the outstanding player of the season. There is the possibility that six letter men, Ken Harshberger, Robert L. Nelson, Calvin Ryske, Casmier Pollcowski, Wilber Beattie, and Harold Smith will return next year. Two varsity reserves, Ken McNeil and Harry De Vries, are also returning. This seems to indicate more than ever that Tech will have a good team next year. F, ' . af FRONT ROW: E. Van Ravenswaay, R. Zimmerman, H Hinkeri, Gr France, R. Ieltema.

At the beginning of the season about 75 fellows turned out for practice, and at mid-season there were about 50 remaining on the squad. Bud Elve, the only letter man from last year, with Iohn Bogema, Bob Otfringa, Casimir Polkowski, and Calvzn Hykse were the only veterans left on the team. Prospects are that we will have a very lair season with a more experienced team and a good season in 1945. 51 The Tasks of the Athletic 1VICI1'1CIge1'S are many and varied. This includes taking inventory of all equipment before and after each season. Each time a meeting or a sports event is held the managers are the first to be there and the last to leave. There are always suits to be taken for repair, cleaning, and checking. During football season the boys have a job cleaning all shoes and helmets of mud. For their efforts they are awarded letters. lf you ask the players of any sport, baseball, track, basketball, or football, they will all agree these letters are well-earned. FRONT ROW: F.

The Vdrsi-T Club is an OI'gUI'liZCItiOI'l in which good sportsmanship is the major feature. This club requires its members to hold good scholastic standings and in doing this they are helping to keep the standards of the school at a high level. The T club lost three of its valuable members to an organization far larger than theirs. The United States Navy claimed Roman Kunecki, lack Syrek, and Ted Iarmuloski, former club president, secretary, and treasurer, respectively. The club offers many thanks to Mr. Iohn Saur, new adviser, for his interest in and cooperation with the club. He filled position vacated by Mr. Byrum and Lt.

Flower. who died February 28, 1944, was born in Augusta, Mich- igan, 45 years ago. After graduating from Western State Teachers' College in 1926 and teaching at Coldwater, Michigan, and Milwaukee, Wisconsin, he came to Davis Tech, where he had taught fourteen years at the time of his death. During these years he was a teacher of auto mechanics, aviation, chemistry, physics, trigonometry, and geometry. . ' Besides being a class room teacher, Mr. Flower was a class adviser for 12 years, and the vocational counselor from 1936 to 1942. ln March, 1941, he became Super- visor of Vocational Training for War Production Workers, a position which he held until his death. Both teachers and students of Davis Tech liked Mr. Flower especially well for his wholesome and cheerful manner. His sympathetic attitude made it possible for him to be of great help to the many hundreds of Tech students who have been fortunate enough to have him for a teacher and adviser. He will be very greatly missed by students, teachers, and all who had the privilege oi knowing him. 53 Chester 1. Baciewicz. . . Thomas P. Bednarek.. 5 ibm 523 Emerald Ave., N.
