THE ARROW Foreword 47 ITHIN this Log is recorded the fair W and stormy weather, that the crew of the good ship Eastern have encount- ered during their three year voyage in search of knowledge. Many times the seas have been rough and sailing difficult, nevertheless this jolly crew has survived with their goal athand. They are now pre- pared to venture on a more strenuous voy- | age, better fitted to cope with the many problems facing them during the next three years. Let us wish them a bon voyage with smooth sailing. | H (7 C g Y g 4g 6 g A g 6 U g g A V ( 4 (4 g g g g g (4 g Z Y g V C V CZ g C, U C y y g g U (7 U Z V g V (4 (, A Y g 6 g C C, U g g 2 Z KO owe 2 a ron some sO mA = o gone ms g S = ee EASTERN JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL = O ec eC KG = a0 ES BSNS SSN UN NON NNN SA SNe LDN HSS Ce ote ee —5nvy’r=evwr rem ae aeereoerroerrmeaoomamaeEeeeeeeeee ESE Dedication E, the departing crew of the good ship S. S. Eastern, are withdrawing ‘from our present positio n and travel- ing further up the coast to a new, and un- explored port, Pontiac Senior High School. There we intend to receive a cargo of knowledge that will aid us to become mast- ers of our own ships in the future. We have spent three years in preparation for this trip and now we are determined to become successful. Our officers, the faculty, have served us in every way possible and have guided us through troubled waters to a sure, saie, landing 50nit ismiomyoumoun captains that we dedicate this log. Many times we have been discouraged, but it has been you who have encouraged us to try with a stronger will and attain higher goals. We leave the 8. S. Eastern feeling grateful to the commanders who have given us a better understanding of the proklems of life. It is to you, teachers we pay our highest esteem.

HIRE, Priacipal j Your captain salutes you and offers his congratulations upon your promo- tion to senior high school. New and larger seas of learning are now yours to travel. As in the past you may ex- pect rough water and storms, but you now have the advantage of a larger boat and crew. Stay with the ship for the world needs more education not less. The proper education of the world’s young people is far more important than pacts and treaties. If these people are educated to selfishness and greed, to intolerance and hate, all the treaties and agreements in the world cannot keep them from each other's throats. If the statesmen of the world would give the time and thought and the billions of dollars now spent on pre- paration for war to the proper educa- tion of its young people for a generous, kindly :world of peace, the age old creams of mankind for security and havpiness might be realized in a gene- ration. J. CECIL Cox, Asst. Principal j After being aboard the good ship “Kastern’ for three years, some will probably be reluctant to disembark when the ships docks. However, I trust that as you transfer your luggage to the boat at the Huron street wharf you may give your loyalty and support to your new ship as wil- lingly as you have at Eastern. The officers of your new ship will differ little from those with whom you have been associated during the past three years. In fact their purposes and aims will be almost identical. Only the methods may differ. You will of course be more adult than when you entered Eastern, and as such must ex- pect to take more responsibility. May I commend you on having been good sailors and my sincere wish be for your continued success. TIE Ack RrOsw) eeeSaeS Faculty Mr. Loraine F. Hire, Principal A. B., M. A.

J. H. S. BOUNTY For three gay years aboard this ship We’ve sailed on an educational trip. Some have succeeded and some have failed But we've kept up our courage and on we’ve sailed. Yes, on we’ve sailed through hardships and woes, Among our teachers, friends, and foes. Working for pride and self-control Working to be on the honor roll. Now we prepare to leave this ship We want to say we've enjoyed the trip. And we thank the faculty for their aid In helping us all to make the grade. —Gladys Cowling 9A-6 The following have at- tained the highest schol- arship ratings in their rooms.

The stars guide us Along the shimmering sea; So does our compass, Tell the course to be. Many lands; many seas; We pass along the way, Larger ships; deeper seas; But we'll come out in “May”. Our baggage and bundles, Stacked to the very top— With tales of peace, tales of thunder, And with every foreign crop. There’s something very entrancing, About our ship on the sea, | When the stars above are dancing; | Oh! Does it not appeal to you— | As it does to me? —Lutie E. Knoche 9A-5 erie AL BO lw ‘38 9A-1 LOG N September 1935, we the members of 9A-1 walked up the gangplank of the ship “Eastern” and began a voy- age of three years. We were directed to the auditorium where we met our captain, Mrs. Hartman, who assigned us to room 214. As we advanced through the seventh, eighth and ninth leagues of our voy- age, our members slowly began the climb to the top and several of them have now reached it with success. In January 1936, our stateroom was changed to 212, and in the 9B Mrs. Hoffmann became our captain. We have had six members in the Big Sisters and five in the Hi-Y, nine in the Glee clubs, five in the Globe Trotters, and five in the orchestra. Those who have neither been absent or tardy during the past three years ere: Lucille Haroutunian, Genevieve Meyer, Keith Deyo, Keith Colby, Rose- mary Downer and Dorothy Beulock. Our very sincere wish as we leave the good ship Eastern is that we will enjoy our next venture for knowledge 2s much as we have enjoyed this one. 9A-2 LOG The first episode of the 9A-2’s began on a delightful September morning in 1935 when we went aboard the S. S. Eastern. ” For our three year journey we were assigned to cabin 118, the mate being Miss Florence Schuster. Of that orig- inal group only twenty five members stand by as the destination is reached. During the voyage we picked up citizens from Iowa, Texas, Missouri, Minnesota, and West Virginia; as well as from our own Pontiac, Detroit, Jackson, and Brighton, Michigan. So that we wou ld be better prepared to assume responsibility, we were al- Class Log lowed a certain amount of self govern- ment. We chose for our presidents; Larry Saxton in 7B; Hugh Pruett in 8B; Donna Crantas in 7A and 9B; Max- ine Legg in 8A; and Molly Grisciotti in the 9A. In the 8B we, together with Miss Bakers’ group, presented a Thanksgiv- ing Pageant, “The Pilgrim’s Pride’. During 8A we decided upon a news- paper which appeared regularly every month. Congratulations to Maxine Legg, editor, who kept the staff work- ing. Geraldine Diehl in 8A won the spell- ing bee at E astern and then represent- ed the district at the Detroit News Metropolitan and National Spelling Bee in the Coliseum at the Michigan State Fair Grounds, Detroit. Regardless of weather conditions or other difficulties Phyllis Koenig, Betty Forsyth and Geraldine Diehl reported on duty promptly every day of the journey. We are doubly proud of Betty For- syth, who was elected president of the Big Sisters. Others from our room are Maxine Legg, and Bernadette Chircop; while Donald Stein, Larry Saxton, and Arthur Kohn became members of Hi-Y. Elsie Perkins, editor of the Arrow, has had an opportunity to fulfill her ambition which is to become a news- paper woman. As we leave the good ship Eastern we hope other people who take that same journey will follow our motto, “Eastern Leads the Way”. 9A-3 LOG In September 1935, the good ship S. S. Eastern began to take on 7B-3 pas- sengers. Pupils assigned to our group boarded the ship at the Bagley, Bald- win, Longfellow, Central, Wilson, Mc- (Continued on Page 20) Class Log 9A-3 LOG (Continued from Page 19) Connell, Whittier, Willis and McCar- roll schools. Truly, we represented all sections of the City of Pontiac. Dur- ing the three year cruise fourteen pas- sengers boarded the boat from other parts of the State. At the beginning of our voyage, the ship was so large and we were so young that we had difficulty acquiring our “sea-legs’. However, by the end of the first week we knew our way around the various decks. We no longer became lost when trying to get to the cafeteria, auditorium and the ship's gymnasium. During the second week on board we enjoyed our first assembly, which was put on by the ninth grade. Since that time we have taken part and en- Joyed many assemblies produced by various groups on the ship. On one of these occasions we received our biggest thrill; that was the first time we Saw ourselves in Captain Hire's movies, We have had many officers to help guide us on our cruise. Allen Green- lee was our president in 7B and Joy Hershberger in 7A. It was at this time that we participated in the May Festival. We operated a _ pepcorn stand. Do yo recall the rushing busi- ness we had? J. C. McAllister was our president in 8B; and since that time, by popular request, Billy O'Neal has served in that capacity. Under his guidance our Christmas parties were a great success. “Into all lives, some rain must fall. Some days must be dark and dreary.” And so to us as 9B’s came a great sorrow. Phyllis Sparks, a well loved member of our group was taken from us by death. Most sincerely we re- gretted her passing. 20 THE ARROW ‘38 9A-3 is pleased to record the fact that it has ten members in the Girls’ Glee club. Also, the Hi-Y claims two of our boys; and the Big Sisters has one of our girls in its membership. To the band and orchestra we have given six members and to the Boy’s Glee Club one. We are proud of our wearers of the Silver and Gold ‘FE’, knowing that they will wear them with honor to themselves and to our good_ ship Eastern. We are sorry to come to port from our three years cruise, but we hear a more exciting world cruiser, the Good Ship S. S. Pontiac High calling us and we must answer the summons. So, 9A-3's send to all other passengers aboard the S. S. Eastern our farewell radiogram wishing you all ‘Happy Voyaging”. 9A-4 LOG In September 1935 we set sail aboard the good ship Eastern on a three year cruise. Our party numbered forty-six with Mrs. Garrison acting as conductor. Margie Yuetten was chosen as First Mate Margie and Leland Furse, Dickie Johnston, Merne LaFave, and Leo Prownell left our ship during the voy- age to join another company. In their place we received Mary Kloss from the state of Washington, Shirley Vyse from Cass City, Michigan, Shirley Ed- wards from Walled Lake, Maxine Wharff from Wick, Iowa, and Bill War- ner from Berkley, Michigan. Those who have reported on board for duty each day during the three years have been Vahrig Andonian, James Morten- son, and Paul Way. Many members of the crew have given outstanding service. Mary Kloss, Mona McSwain, Dottie Marsh, and (Continued on Page 21) THE ARROW 38 9A-4 LOG (Continued from Page 20) Shirley Crisman have served as Big Sisters while Norman Legge, Vincent Pentiuk and Conrad Lisek have been members of the Hi-Y. Shirley Crisman, Mary Kloss, Irene Pickering, Grover Schatz, Norman Legge, Conrad Lisek and Vincent Pentiuk have been the shi p's Glee Club members. Many interesting side trips have been taken by James Mortenson, Dot- tic Marsh, Mary Louise Wiggins, Nor- ma Barker, and Irene Pickering, who early in the voyage joined the Globe Trotter's club. In May our ship docks and the crew receives a three months shore leave. In September we hope to see all of our mmbers aboard the “Good Ship Pon- tiace High. -to) sail forth on another three year cruise. 9A-5 LOG In September of 1935, we the 9A-5 crew, came aboard the good _ ship, ‘Eastern’. Mr. Walls was our fine captain dur- ing the first half-year cruise on the great sea of knowledge. His courage- ous assistant was June Medlen. We enjoyed Halloween and _ Christmas f-stivities on our second deck in Cabin 208. On the next voyage of one and a half years, we had Miss Scott as our leader and captain. The standing of- ficers, Harold Rouse, Ruth Yuetten and Lutie Knoche, assisted in keeping a fine spirit among our shipmates, in rollicking deck parties. The celebrated crew gave a shimmering display of their talent in our assembly. Many foaming and sparkling visions have appeared in our trip on the sea of knowledge, but our third year of seafaring has been most exciting and Class Log adventureous. We again stopped our cruising and displayed our crew in a shore festivity for visitors and _ ship- mates aboard. Our guiding captain was Mrs. Kindly who has steered our ship right into a new port where, when we become acquainted, we will climb aboard the bigger and wider boat, “Pontiac High School.” Our captain's faithful shipmen who have worked as head officers are Lorraine Colbeth and Robert Lasho. “We have gained many terms and likings towards unknown and unstudied lands, but till we pass each of their harbors once more, ‘Light our ship, like the lights on shore’.” 9A-6 LOG In September of 1935 we 9A-6’s walk- ed up the gang plank of the good ship S. S. Eastern for the first time. We marched into the auditorium and heard our names read by Miss Baker. Our residence then became room 301. Our presidents during our three year voyage have been: 7-B—Ruth Mills; 7A—Wanda Cook; 8B — Billy Winkley; 8A — Frederick Jackson; 9B—Ruth Mills; and 9A— Ruth Mills. We spent the 7B in getting acquaint- ed with our captains and fellow pas- songers. Ruth Mills and Arlene Bald- win were on the 7B assembly. In the 7A our boys started the ball rolling by winning the ‘7th grade basketball championship. During the 8B we gave an assembly with Miss Schuster's Homeroom, the 9A-2's. We also gave a Thanksgiving basket to a needy family and sent clothing to the flood sufferers. A potluck supper was enjoyed on deck in the 8A. Jean Kratt, one of our best scholars, left us in this semester.

Jack Kaiser returned to the S. S. Eastern after a year cruise on the S. S. Lincoln, and was assigned to our home- room. Our homeroom boys again brought honor to us by winning the Sth grade touchtackle championship. George Felice, representing the team, received a beautiful marroon and gray football from Mr. Allison. This now is Ccisplayed in the S. S. Eastern’s Trophy Case. During the 9B, two of our girls were voted into the Big Sisters and With the 9A came the basketball season and Jack Kaiser made Eastern’s Basketball Team. (Our boys also won the 9th grade basketball championship). three of our boys joined the Hi-Y. Billy Winkley and Mildred Johnson reprcsent us in the Glee clubs. Arlene Baldwin, Wanda Cook, Betty Harper, and Leone Perry are in the Big Sisters, while Norman Andress, Bob Burn- werth,, George Heenan, Gordon Seaton and Hector Serra are in the Hi-Y. Ruth Mills and Wanda Cook have perfect reccrds of punctuality and attendance. Tkroe of our girls—Arlene Baldwin, Wanca Cook and Ruth Mills—have rade the honor roil every time. We rave enjoyed our three years on the S S. Eastern and hop2 we shall onioy our three years at our new port, ibe S. S. Pontiac High as well as we have these. Thank you, captains for the wonderful help you have given us. We hope some Cay to be able to repay you for this kindness. A Gentle Hint Visitor: “And at what time do you have dinner, my little friend?”’ Terrible Boy: “Soon as you've gone!” SS 9A-7 LOG Steaming into port, the good ship S. S. Eastern picked up in September 1935 the 7B-7’s and directed us to the third deck to the stateroom 300. Here Miss Scott was in charge. Overcoming timidness on this strange ship, we soon managed to find our way around the various decks. Soon six students were listed on the Ships Honor Roll, and since then the number has been grad- ually increased. With Mr. Wall's leaving and Miss Scott assigned to his former duties, Miss Bajari took charge of our group. We glided smoothly along under the Cirection of four presidents: Orland Winslow, June Measell, Adolph Aper- auch, and Betty Beach. We are proud of two first class passengers, Thelma Rice and Ruth Goodman who repre- sented us in the spelling bee, while Ruth won the trophy. Last year we produced a winner of the Yo-Yo Con- test in Eugene Dennis. Our stateroom has Silas PRarnett and Eugene Duify in the Hi-Y, and June Measell and Ruth Goodman are Big Sisters. We sinccrely regret the early closing cf the sailing season for we needed more navigation instructions. Now Oh Easterners! Here’s hoping that you will ail land at as many busy, happy ports és we have in the past and have fair wea‘her sailing with spread, full canvas. Guaranteed Salcsman: “Madam, this fire ex- tinguisher is guaranteed to give you service for fifty years.” Elderly Lady: “But I shan’t be here all that time.” Salzsman (misunderstanding her meaning): “Oh, but you can take it with you when you go!”’ ie eee h Rh OLW Appreciation The Staff and its adviser wishes to take this space in expressing their appreciation to all those who have made this book possible. We are grateful to the homeroom teach- ers who have had the task of collecting the necessary tunds to pay tor this book. We wish to extend our thanks to Miss Bajari and the Art Department for the fine drawings and suggestions.

Needed Only One A Scotchman upon entering a sad- dler’s asked for a single spur. “What use is one spur?’ asked the man. “Well,” replied Sandy, “If I can. get one side of the hors2 to go, the other side will have to comeewith it.” When He'd Expected 100 Mother: “Why were you kept in after school today, Junior?” Junior: “The teacher told us to write an essay on “The Results of Laziness” and I turned in a blank sheet of paper. Obeying Instructions Teacher (to a tardy student): “Why were you late?” George: “Well, a sign— Teacher: ‘What has the sign got to do with it?” George: “The sign read, “School ahead, go slow.” In Anticipation Mother: “Why are you beating Willy like that?” Willy's father: “You see tomorrow afternoon he will bring home his school report and I have to go away before breakfast in the morning.” No Doubt In His Mind “William,” asked the teacher, “What is the plural of man?” ‘Men,’ announced Willie. “And the plural of child.” “Twins!” was the prompt reply. Breaking It Gently Youth: “Dad, you remember telling me how you were expelled from school?” Father: ‘Yes, but it’s ancient his‘ory now.” Youth: “It’s funny how history re- peats itself, isn't it?” THE ARROW The Race of The Sasparila One nice windy day, out to sea Went two fast ships; for a race there was to be. Which would win, one could hardly say; For tomorrow was going to be a stormy day. When night came both ships were abreast, And the Captain told his men to do their very best. Then thunder they soon began to hear; An awful storm would come, they began to fear. Then the lightning began to flash, And over the deck the waves began to dash. The helmsman had to be tied to the wheel, So he could keep the boat on an even keel. Hours later most of the stormy weather past; They did their level best to make that boat go fast. Days later, swiftly into port they came; The Sasparila had won its way to fame. —EDWIN THOMPSON 9A-3 40 THE ARROW 9A Who's Who Who's Who In the 9A-1 Trait Boy Girl Curllestilicine esses...

On his return home she asked him if he had taken his medicine regularly. “Oh, no,” replied Willie. “But Jim- mie Wiggins did. He liked it so I swapped it for a handful of Peanuts.” Johnny Knows Johnny: “Father, how do you spell ‘high '?”’ Father: ‘H-i-g-h. Why do you want to know?” Johnny: ‘Cause I'm writing a com- position on the ‘high ena.” 46 Deadline The student reporter had just sub- mitted his editorial for the day to the editor. Leaving the editorial hoom, he began to reflect upon what he had writ- ten and decided to go back to change something in it. “T have a few corrections to make on the editorial that I submitted,’ he told the editor. The editor reached into the waste basket and pulled out the editorial. “All right, but make it snappy—the waste baskets will be emptied in five minutes.” The Difference Strolling through fields of clover with his sweetheart, he spied a bull rushing straight toward them. Quick as a flash he beat a hasty retreat. “Why, Johnnie, you were afraid,’ she plaintively, accused when they finally reached safety, “and you said you would face death for me.’ “TI know I said that,’ John replied, “but that bull was not dead.” Wrong Word For It “Are you really content to spend your life walking the country beg- ging?” asked the old lady severely. “No, lady, I ain't,’ answered the hobo. “Many’s the time I wished I had cares Unfortunate Fellow Little Rollo was looking at a picture of the martyrs being thrown to the lions. His a unt was telling him all about it in a very solemn effort to im- press him with the terror and horror Olmiimalls “Oh, Auntie!’ little Rollo was heard to exclaim, “just look at that poor little lion, ‘way behind the others—he won't get any!” | ee ees ey ee UE AUR ROW ek ee GLOBE TROTTERS The Globe Trotters Club was organized in 1933 by a group of fourteen girls and boys who were desirous of becoming better acquainted with the various peoples of the earth, their costumes, their customs and why they are as they are. It has been a most interesting experience. Each year we have increased our membership until now our enrollment is thirty-six, including girls and boys from the eighth and ninth grades. Our field trips have increased in number from three the second year to eight this year. Our trips this year have been: 1. Windsor, going via the bridge and returning through the tunnel. The Ferry Seed Farm, bringing home many gourds. Eller’s Dairy Farm, north of Oxford a most interesting trip. Monroe—going through the paper mills. . Detroit,—to visit the ten rooms furnished in foreign style, at Hudson’s. 6. Waites—to watch the Venetian Glass Blowers. We are scheduled for two more trips: Greenfiled Village and Cranbrook In- stitute of Science. There is another bee in our bonnets but enough of that for now. We have given one Assembly each year; the one given in February was ‘‘Inter- national Flowers.” Another activity has been a tea each year for the Faculty. ‘ Each month this year we have studied a different country making booklets depicting life there and writing a short paper describing a certain phase of their life. Some of the countries and topics studied were: October—Indians of America November—Industries December—Christmas in Many Lands January—Hawaii February—lInternational Relations March—Holland April—Mexico May—Alaska and Hobbies Our Year Book for 1938-39 is now in the making and we have chosen “‘Explor- ing Geography” as our text, making a study of one unit each month and allowing time for projects for individual members or groups. Globe Trotters travel all over the earth, | Forever hunting new places and nooks, A ee) We try to prove what geography’s worth By traveling through geography books. We always aim for success by endeavor We'll not give up until we are through. We'll keep on trying and. gaining forever Till we’ve proved what Glob Trotters can do. 47 Te PUMoe ene tale Oxy. teNSeeeSeeEOOSOEe THE BIG SISTERS’ CLUB The Big Sisters’ Club was reorganized last semester under the direction of Miss Pearl Hollister of room 112. Our membership totaled thirty-five in number. They were chosen by the vote of the faculty. We have greatly enjoyed our vee held each Wednesday after school, and our other activities. One of our most peanniny eel affairs was the banquet given in honor of our members in the January class of 9A’s and for the new members invited to join us. This was held at the close of the semester with Mrs. Edna Forman as our guest speaker. On March 31, we presented an all girl assembly, the highlights of which was Miss Hallenbeck’s talk on ‘‘Rainbows’’.. This was followed by a tea and musical pro- gram given in the library on April 27 in honor of our mothers. We have endeavored to be of service to the 7B’s by having a small group of 7B girls assigned to each Big Sister. These 7B girls come to us for help and advice concerning the many problems which confronts anew student. We are grateful for the kindly assistance given us by the teachers while we have tried to help “Eastern Lead the Way.” We the 9A’s who are leaving feel that our many worthwhile services cheerfully and willingly rendered have benefited us greatly as well as our school. THE HI-Y CLUB The purpose of the Hi-Y Club is to create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community, high standards of Christian character. The H1-Y also has a slogan—the four C’s which stand for 1. Clean speech; 2. Clean living; 3. clean athletics; 4. Clean scholarship. The Hi-Y has taken a part in several activities at Eastern this year. THE GIRLS’ GLEE CLUB The Girls’ Glee Club under the supervision of Miss Hawley was very active this semester. We first sang at the Central School P.T.A. We were also invited to sing at a tea at the home of Mrs. Crisman on Shirley Street. We presented a program at the Wilson’ Avenue Methodist church. We gave an assembly presenting various types of music. -There was a Hawaiian scene ee up of Alta Haydell, Dorothea Warrilow, and Ilene Bredow, who played “Blue Hawaii” on their guitars. They were accompanied by a sextette and the Glee club. Wenona Dewey gave a delightful‘ solo, ‘Believe Me in All Those Endearing Young Charms.” Bernadette Chircop sang “Alice Blue Gown,” the Glee club accom- panied her. Dorothea Warrilow sang a classical number entitled “The Lass With the Delicate Air” which was well received by all. The Glee Club had fifty-four members many of which are being promoted to the Senior High School this semester. We expect many will try out for the High School chorus and will succeed. 48 ‘ Y) SSAA SSSSAS SSSSSSASSS SSSSSSSSSS SAS SSS SSSA Y SS y SSS i y A g U g g g g g U A , ( g g C 4 g 0, Z ( A Cy g g 4 ( g y V C A ( g Z g C (A ( V A v 0 g V Z A CA ¢ g (A g U Z g CA (4 U g C, 7 g 7 g g g g g Z C g g U g 0 g ( A C Z V OSAAEATTAALTA CSTE DELLSSLELSTETEETELELE LLL TET TLESSSLLLASASLLS ST AAAAAAAALSLLLSSSSSLSRE TATE TE SEEELEEESSLESRESEEEEESReee Te CUE RUEEERERE RUS ERERERECRRRKE CER D THE ARROW RRR LAP AL AL APPA AP LP PL Lah AD AIPA AA AAA AT THE 9A SIX VOYAGE We sailors have read of fine ships at sea, Knowing not in the least what that life would be, We have often wished for a trip on the blue, Realizing not as our school tasks we do That we help Eastern’s ship on her busy way, And also by our efforts help Her “lead the way” In September, 1935, we all stepped aboard, Each given instructions and assigned to his word. In the Baker Cabin we settled with joy, Thinking life would be gladness for each girl and boy. We soon found the duties for us were not so few, That to honor and justice we had to be true. On this three year voyage we’ve had both work and pleasure— Times we wish to forget, and those that we treasure. As we leave good ship Eastern, Other journeys to take, We resolve to make good And be true for Her sake. —MARY VERHINE THE ARROW THE 1938 BASKETBALL TEAM Front Row: E. Duffy, L. Ledford, N. Legge, J.

OWE SS ee THE ARROW Girls’ Athletics “GIRLS’ SPORTS The girls’ gym classes, under the direction of Miss Wyman, were very active during the fall with different rhythm classes, and various kickball teams. The girls had a tournament in kickball, which was won by the 8A-class. The 9th grade sec- tions had an all-star kickball team which competed at various times. The 9B’s won this set. The activities of the winter months included squads in each gym class, which consisted of (1) basketball, (2) jump rope, (3) mats, (4) spot ball, (5) paddle ten- nis, (6) baseball target, (7) bowling, (8) schuffle board.

Spring activities included baseball, tennis, track and recreational activities. There are forty-two teams competing in a baseball tournament. An ssembly was put on April 8th, including rhythm work from all the classes. Approximately three hundred girls took part in this assembly. THE LEADER’S CLUB The Leader’s Club under the sponsorship of Miss Wyman has enjoyed many pleasant activities this semester. An assembly was given with the aid of the girls gym classes. Two baseball teams were organized with Betty Forsyth and Shirley Mahar acting as captains. The winning team will be treated by the losing team. The Leadet’s Club girls have acted as ushers for the assemblies and wish to thank the Hi-Y boys for acting as special ushers when the gym assembly was given. Special awards are being given for honors won in scholarship and citizenship. The club hopes to enjoy a picnic at th end of the semester. eeeeeee_u5yerreeeeeeeeeees THE ARROW Organizations BOYS’ GLEE CLUB The Boys’ Glee Club finishes a happy and, we think, successful year. Under the leadership of our officers, Eugene Duffy, Larry Saxton, Silas Barnett, Hector Serra, we have provided two school assemblies, besides appearing before various P.T.A. meetings and church social evenings of the city, the Pontiac P.T.A. Council dinner, and the Oakland County Federation of Women’s Club Annual Luncheon. We were honored with an invitation for the third successive year, to appear before our Pontiac Civic Lecture course .and.were thus privileged to hear the world-famous traveler, Carveth Wells. For the first time in our history we took over an entire church service providing organ, violin, and vocal music for Vespers at First Con- gregational Church. We have studied oratorial and opera music, great art songs of famous com- posers, folk songs of many countries, all in four part harmony, and we have also enjoyed a number of nonsense songs which seem also to have pleased our audiences. With a membership of 56, at least three-fourths of our members have appeared in public in solo, duet, or trios and have thus gained conf idence and poise. All in all, we boast of service to our school and community, valuable lessons in loyalty, co- operation, and dependability and plenty of fun for ourselves. JUNIOR GIRLS’ GLEE CLUB The Junior Girls’ Glee Club under the direction of Miss Hester Hartsell was organized last September and has been very active since. Their uniforms are maroon sweaters, and grey skirts and hose, the school colors of Eastern Junior. The Junior girls are very proud of their club and an orchid to our splendid director Miss Hartsell: The following officers helped in organizing the club: Wilma Morrell, president; Lila Clark, vice president; Maxine Gilmore, secretary; Betty Kruscha, corresponding secretary, and Patricia Eddy, historian. The Junior Girls’ Glee Club have sung at the following schools: Eastern Junior Christmas assembly—December 21st; Eastern Junior P. T. A.—February 3rd; Weaver School--February 17th; Sarah McCarroll—March 17th; Daniel Whitfield—April 13th and have accepted an invitation to sing at Eastern Junior assembly May 5th and 6th. “Eastern leads the way” is our motto always. JUNIOR BOYS’ GLEE CLUB The Junior Boys’ Glee Club is composed entirely of 7B boys. Every member has worked fairly well, and some of the boys have shown excellent interest. They have learned to sing independently in three-part work; four of the boys have learned this art so well that they sing a quartette now and then. Barbara Wilson, a 7A pupil is their accompanist, and has served the group with credit. Miss Baker is their director. THE ARROW Caring For All A little four-year-old knelt beside the bed on retiring, and after repeating “Now I lay me,’ added an extempora- neous prayer as follows: “Please, God, take care of papa, take care of auntie, and be sure to take care of yourself.” Tommy, age five, asked his grand- mother if she had any little brothers when she was small. She replied that she had one little half-brother. “For heaven's sake Grandma,” said Tommy, “what happened to the other half?” A Good Assumption Boss: “There’s two dollars missing from my desk drawer, and no one but you and I have a key to it.” Office Boy: “Well, let’s each put a dollar back and forget it.” Water, Water A vagrant, when taken to the police station, was told to strip for a bath.” “What, go in the water?” he asked. “Ves, you need it. How long has it been since you had a bath?” “Well, I never was arrested before.” Si. Harry An old country couple, having their first bus ride in London, became rather uneasy on hearing the conductor call out St. James and then St. John. The old chap grew very fidgety, saying to his wife: “Isn't it time we got out, dear?” “Don't show your ignorance, Harry,” she said. ‘Wait till yer name's called. Salt or Soup? Wife: “Don’t you think I have put too much salt in the soup dear?” Model Husband: “Not at all, darling. There is perhaps not quite enough soup for the salt, that’s all.” Jokes In the Classroom A school teacher asked the pupils to write a short essay and to choose their own subjects. A little girl sent in the following paper: “May subjek is ‘Ant.’ Ants is of two kinds, insects and lady uncles. “Sometimes they live in holes and sometimes they crawl into the sugar bowl, and sometimes they live with their married sisters. “That is all I know about ants.” Who? Me! Teacher: “Correct this sentence: “It was me that spilt the ink.” Pupil: “It wasn’t me that spilt the ink.” Wise Johnny Teacher: “Johnny, how old is a person who was born in 1894?” Johnny: “Man or woman?”’ Modern Son: “Aw, pop, I don’t want to study arithmetic. It ain’t no use.” Modern Father: “What! A son of mine grow up and not be able to figure football scores and batting averages?’ Wrong Applicant The minister advertised for a man- servant and the next morning a nicely- dressed young man rang the bell. “Can you start the fire and get breakfast by seven o'clock?” asked the minister. “T guess so,’ answered the young man, “Well, can you polish all the silver, wash the dishes, and keep the house neat and tidy?”’ “Say, parson,” said the young fellow, “T came here to see about getting married, but if it’s going to be as much work as all that, you can count me out right now.” AUTOGRAPHS
