ENID HIGH SCHOOL second place in the conference. Enid High had little trouble in winning the regional tourney, which was held at the Education Building. With Don Buelow lead- ing the offensive with ten points as high point man, the home quintet downed Perry 45-ll. The next night, Enid engaged Black- well in the semi-finals and trampled them 46-21. Big james Elliott hit thirteen points. Then came the finals. With Guthrie as a formidable opponent, the Plainsmendrub- bed the Blue lays 47-18, as Hampton dunk- ed seventeen points. The following week, the Plainsmen focused their eyes on the baskets at Oklahoma City where they were facing the cream of the crop. In the first round Red Youngman's de- termined cagers served formal notice of their intentions as they blasted Durant from the running 30-14. Don Ladusau split the nets with twelve points to lead his teammates. The Plainsmen continued their victory march as they moved into the semi-finals by tumbling Tulsa Central's Braves 36-26. Elliott cut loose to tip in thirteen tallies for high point honors. Then came the thriller-the big moment. Having lost to Capitol Hill on two earlier occasions, the Enidites made the third time the charm as they jolted the Redskins 28-26. Lynn Carlile, little giant of the Plainsmen, climaxed the memorable battle with a one handed push shot in the waning second of the game. Don Ladusau again led the scor- ing with ten points. For the first time in the history of Enid High, the fruits of a State Basketball Cham- pionship were tasted. With a resounding and enthusiastic assembly, the champions were welcomed home. james Elliott, Don Ladusau, and Lynn Carlile were chosen as State All-Stars for their outstanding performances. Voted by his fellow teammates as the most valuable play- er, Don Buelow will have his name placed on the blanket hanging in the high school office. Lettering on the A squad are Buelow, Carlile, Hampton, Elliott, Dean Ladusau, Don Ladusau, Leierer, jack Osborn, Harvey O'Mealey, Billy Tharp, E. Gunning, and Robert O'Rourke. Besides Gunning, O'Mealey and O'Rourke, Youngman will have his B team returning. Those boys who will form the basis of next year's squad are Bob Hurst, Bill Lesnett, Dale VVilmoth, Raymond Benge, .Bill Hem- ingway, Don Bogert, Buddy Codner, and john McMahan. Playing under a major handicap, the B team was forced to play all their ball games on the home maple. The opposition was furnished by a scrappy Kremlin five, the Naval Aviation Cadets from Phillips, and a group from the Enid Army Flying School. Despite the fact that gas rationing deprived the younger Plainsmen the privilege of trav- eling, the cagers practiced hard and gained a load of valuable experience, which will aid the coaches of 1944 to piece together another outstanding ball club. 23 'zganizafions 0 Enid School Edited by Dorothy Heschmeyer Mary La Grone' Vocal 'Music By PEGGY SCOGGIN The Vocal Music Department, under the direction of Miss Maurine Morrow, furnish- ed the school and other clubs and organiza- tions throughout the city with a wide field of musical entertainment during the year. The Girls, Chorus, Boys' Chorus, Flag Girls, and Girls, Ensemble made up the Vocal ifiusic Department. The Flag Girls were particularly outstand- ing in the work they did through the year. The costumes they wore, when all the girls were together, made a large flag. With most of the songs being patriotic numbers, their programs were very colorful and well re- ceived wherever they entertained, The group, composed of Dorothy Friday, Carolyn Fri- day, Helen Butts, Twila jean Daugherty, and Allyra Neugebauer, sang for many pro- grams. These included the Victory Bond program, the American Legion Auxiliary, the D. A. R., Service Men's Center, Sunday Musical, A. B. C. Club, Federated Music Clubs, Armistice Day Assembly, High School Open House, State Rotary Conven- tion, Oklahoma City, and the Band and Orchestra program. The Boys' Chorus were no less outstand- ing in their work during the last three months of the school term. Composed of fifty-eight members, the group met during home-room period and showed remarkable ability in the short time they had to prac- tice. They had an important role in the success of the program, America Singsf' which was given May 7, at the Education Building. The Girls' Ensemble of whom the mem- bers varied was composed of from eight to sixteen girls. This group was called on by many organizations to offer their entertain- ment. Special programs were the Pianists' Club Christmas program, the U. D. C. Christmas program, Class Day, and they offered their services to Station KCRC for the Bond Sale Program. Always one of the main attractions of the Chorus is-the annual program given at Christmas. This was the ninth year that the classes had participated. Uoffxr the direc- tion of lvfiss Morrow, students from the ten grade schools, two junior high schools, and the high school presented the program. The singing of carols and other Christmas selections made an appropriate program for the Yuletide season. The entire Girls' Chorus, the largest Enid High School has ever had, showed excep- tional talent in their work during the year. The chorus sang for High School Open House, the Preaching Mission held at the Central Christian Church, America Sings Program, May Fete, and Commencement. The climaxing event of the year was the presentation of the mixed chorus in the program, America Sings . This represented different phases of American life, including Modern America and Classical America, given by the Girls' Chorus, America of l9l7, featuring the Boys' Chorus, and Religious America, with the combined choruses. Besides preparing for musical performances during the year, the Girls' Chorus read and studied the book, Unfinished Symphony, and the Story of Schubert's Life . The Boys' Chorus read the Life of lrving Berlin . The student body and faculty of Enid High School appreciated the work Miss Mor- row and the chorus classes did in adding to the fine reputation of the school, in her many performances and events presented dur- ing the year. A reputation excelled by no other school or no other graduating class of Enid High School. A reputation and record the chorus may be justly proud of because they were large factors in helping to establish this. Vergilian Club Always an outstanding club at Enid High School is the Vergilian Club under the excel- lent sponsorship of Miss Marie Ward. Those students taking fourth year Latin formed the organization which met every two weeks on Thursday. A new project of the club was the Trojan Tribune, a newspaper put out every meeting, which kept the students well informed on what was happening in Ancient Rome. The highlight of the year was the Annual Banquet held in the'Crystal Dining Room of the Hotel Youngblood. The program was unique in the form of a Cabi- net meeting with Roman gods portrayed by the members. The Vergilian Club had a successful year and is looking forward to another next year, Delta Theta Delta Theta, under the sponsorship of Miss Florel Helema, carried on their usual program this year. Every two weeks these put aside their solid geometry fourth year math students classes, trigonometry, and books, to participate in some very intellectual engineering to conversation ranging from wheat elevators.
