Birthday Party NEVER-TO-BE-FORGOTTEN memories were stored away by Manual alumni, pupils and teaehers when they all joined forces for the big Golden Jubilee paying tribute to Dame Manual on her fiftieth birthday Feb. 16 and 17 even though she was officially born on Feb. 18. In-school activities and alumni class reunions were held at Manual Friday, but the really big doin ' s were held at the Scottish Rite Cathedral Saturday afternoon and evening. Pupils started the ball rolling for the two-day party Friday morning. After re- ceiving souvenir book marks bearing Manual ' s towers and the special eight-page edition of The Booster, everyone adjourned to the auditorium to see the curtain rise on Golden Years, seven-scene pageant depicting Manual ' s history. Stopping only for lunch, Manualites resumed activities by attending the dance in the boys ' gymnasium or the party in the girls ' gymnasium. Hilarious birthday spirit prevailed and an im- promptu jitterbug contest was staged. Despite wilted collars and sore feet, Manual braves and squaws dragged themselves ' way out north to Butler Fieldhouse to climax the in-school celebration with a double-header basket- ball game, Manual vs. Howe and Washington vs. Shortridge. Before the tip-off, bands from the four schools joined together to play Onward Manual, and Chris Hankemeier ' 28, reviewed 50 years of basketball at Manual between encounters. The final score: Manual, 29; Howe, 26. While Manual ' s Redskins were battling Howe ' s Hornets, alumni, a thousand strong, got together at the school and the halls resounded with activity of old grads reminiscing as they held reunions and viewed alumni exhibits and departmental dis- plays. Thirteen classes were represented in the Fiftieth Anni- versary Art Salon, and many alumni had published articles displayed in the alumni authors ' exhibit. A birthday party just isn ' t real unless there are birthday gifts. Bouquets from other high schools, a $100 check from Tech, an alumni gift of $5,000 for the new building, a violin, a por- trait of Mr. Stuart by Elmer Taflinger, several fine paintings and a $100 gift from the parents of the late Dean Janert, who would have been a member of the ' 45 Class, are among the tangible gifts the school received, but Dame Manual received one gift which is priceless, the expression of love and best wishes of all her children. Behind the scenes of Golden Tears — Charles A. Henzie conducted the band in Oar Golden Heritage, a stirring march which he composed for Manual ' s fiftieth. Watching over each scene were Director Vivian L. Siener and her assistant. Miss Men a Guleff. Stagehands and the prop- erty crew were reidy. willing and able during the show, barrators Janice Mathews and Tvjorman Tirmenstein read Manual ' s story and ept the pageant rolling along.
