Such was the background against which we played this round in the tournament of life. It has been an intricate game, and, like chess, full of obscure strategy. Not all our moves have been right or well thought aut, but we have done our best to play according to the rules. As we think back over these cru- cial plays, we see them through the symbol- ism of the pieces of chess. Because of the significance which we at ETHS attach to moral and spiritual values, we shall let the Bishop represent our admin- istration, the Pawn, commonplace yet full of promise, our classes, the Knight, a symbol of youth and courage, our sports, the Castle, a far-reaching and powerful piece, our activ- ities, and last of all, the King and Queen, governing the game, will represent us, the graduating class. In this i954 Key, let us walk back over the board, pausing to observe, to remember, and perhaps to learn. For though we lay aside these pieces now, the rest of the tournament remains before us.

Because of the significance in which we at ETHS hold these val- ues, we feel that the Bishop is a fitting symbol for our administrative section.

Other plans, however, have been more constructive: for example, the formation of a Safety Committee and a Religion Committee.

'A O gathering ol the clan All of 2397 students in one room could mean confusion, but actually it means just another assembly at ETHS, the only event in which the whole student body is assembled at one time. The year's assemblies, planned by the Assemblies Committee to satisfy the interests of every student, started with the fall ac- tivities assembly, at which the presidents of the various school ac- tivities were introduced, and ended with the prize assembly in June. Prominent among the assemblies, averaging about one per month, were those sponsored by the P.T.A. to introduce speakers drawn from areas important in our American life. A unique feature of this type of assembly was the two hour bull sessions in which selected seniors met each speaker. Another outstanding assembly opened the Evanston Youth Conference, with Dr. Alexander from Oklahoma City speaking on the theme of the conference, Seek, find, and live God's way. gr ff l , Upper: What sweeter music can we sing . . .? concludes Mrs. Jacobson's original carol at the Christmas assembly.

IO good neighbor policy Secret rendezvous was tar from secret as New Trier and Evanston High School seniors met at Social Hall at the annual New Trier-Evans- ton Swap Dance, while juniors of both schools met at New Trier, This dance was one of the many activities ar- ranged by the Inter-school council, consisting ot all the student council members ot the two schools. To fur- ther good relations, this council met twice a year. Other projects sponsored by the council included the exchange of edi- torials between the two school news- papers, joint meetings of interest clubs, and the sharing of College Dayf'. Activities with other schools in- cluded a joint dinner with girls from Highland Park High School. Upper Right: ETHS-HP girls' dinner.

IPL The war cry, Heap Good Buy re- sounded through the halls this year as the budget ticket campaign, direct- ed by Stevie Hinman, l64, and spon- sored by Mr. Melvin, got under way. When the smoke clouds cleared away, the school had set a new all time record with a 93 per cent sales participation, proving that ETHS budgeteers know a real bargain when they see one. While most schools sell tickets to extra-curricular activities separately and at a tar greater price, the bud- get ticket, sold for 553,75 ot the be- ginning ot the year, provided tor tree or discounted admittance to atheltic events and dramatic productions and included free receipt ot the Evans- tonian and the Key. Leading homerooms were 244 with 98 per cent soles, followed by lO4 with 97.5 per cent and l44 with 95.3 per cent.

Consistent salesmen as well as erratic ones made this year's total 53,000 more than last year's - a meager 570,000 - to- taling 573,000 for l953. All salesmen joined to raise the percentage record to 84 per cent. However, in this battle of salesman vs. customer, the fairer sex came out ahead, as the first eight high salesmen were girls.

A seance with a member of this department could reveal grades, achievement, aptitude or career interest, test scores and opinions of pre-high school teachers. Whether it was a job, col- lege, or just plain credits, the Gu i dance Department at- tempted to service ETHS students, For part time job seekers, Guidance offered a job placement service, and for future business men and wo- men as well as college en- trants, the career testing pro- gram was extremely helpful in pinpointing real interests, abilities, and aptitudes. This service was highlighted an- nually by a Career Club Conf ference in which distinguished business and professional men spoke to students about their individual fields. For college credit problems, teacher-coun- selors were ready to advise or help. All ETHS students had to do to look into the crystal ball was to utilize some of the services of the Guidance Department. Center Left: Norman Bosley speaks with his adviser, Mr. Cady.

Jfnwene 5 nealq preview Doctors, lawyers, merchants, chiefs. Business and profes- sional men from all over the state gathered together with students at the ETHS Career Conference in February where they answered questions about career possibilities. Opening this conference was Dr. Fred Luchs, who spoke before a general assembly on Human Relations in Our Lives. An additional effort to make ETHS students career conscious was a display in the back lobby, with the theme Your Career is Your Fortune. A practical application of career guidance, in cooperation with local business leaders, was Junior Achievement, an organ- ization in which participants had the opportunity to form their own businesses and turn out products - selling for profit not only in money but also in experience. room 104 1787 made U.S. History, but 1954 made 104 homeroom history when Latin Room legislators drew up a new homeroom con- stitution. We the people of this year's extra ac- tive council did their utmost to make 104 A more perfect homeroom by establish- ing justice through a fair representation of all homeroom members. Promoting the general welfare was al- so stressed in 104 as its stepped up pro- gram concentrated especially on the indi- vidual needs ot each homeroom member. Individual counseling was particularly stressed this year in 104 and other junior- senior homerooms as counselees and coun- selors met together during assembly peri- ods during a week last January in order to promote a more thorough personal ad- visory relationship.

Weekly meetings with counselors coup- led with reference to handy college cata- logs gave the students of l24 the oppor- tunity to do research on careers and schools.

Talks an campus life by college students, a progressive group at student leaders and wide choice of college booklets all aided l44- ites make the right moves. A bevy of blue ribbons were capped by homeroom members including the homecom- ing queen, Central Council president, and president of the senior class, Other prize-snatchers were the talented ten- ants wha helped homeroom programs pack a powerful punch, including the Christmas pra- gram, which consisted of a series af Christ- mas carols by the Outhause Eight Minus Four. A chair, singing mare Christmas car- ols, and Helen Grounds rounded aut the pra- gram with serious reading. More important, l44 was known as the homeroom with the highest percentage of han- or roll students throughout the year. Upper: l44 Council.

With this in mind and to further student understanding and inter- est, the room council held several meetings in front of the entire room. ln this way the students were able to offer their ideas and discuss them with the council. Each month the secretary summed up the minutes of that month's homeroom council meetings and read them to the students. Plans were made for a constitution pat- terned after that of Central Council. During the year, six big programs were presented of an informative as well as enter- taining nature, featuring guest speakers from different fields, contest winning student speak- ers, and novelty acts from the rest of the school. As in past years, the Christmas pro- gram, using as its theme Santa Baby, was the highlight. Among its members l64 claimed the Pres- ident of Quadrangle and also the Secretary of Central Council.

The room was divided into ten sections of 25 students each, headed by a section leader, who, for sopho- mores, was also counselor. Both freshmen and sophomores met with their counselors every Thursday morning. Section leaders' duties consisted of the passing out of report cards and election forms, and group guidance. On the lighter side, the homeroom traded pro- grams with l24 and 364. Speakers highlighted the year with talks from the subject of cosmetics to careers. Upper: 204 Council.

On the other hand, almost every Friday morning brought an eye-opener in student programs, consisting of variety shows, a performance by the Mastersingers, .bands and skits. On the more serious side, con- siderable attention was paid to the coun- seling system, as the students saw their counselors frequently. ln addition to range S T captains, 224 had front seat monitors to add to efficiency in passing out papers.

In connection with this, a special emphasis was placed on guidance to show students more about college and professions. During the year, graduates of ETHS gave the inside story of college life. Professional men were also asked to speak on their particular fields. 244 had a unique system of homeroom pro- grams, in that it had a weekly talent show every Thursday morning. These programs consisted of talented students of 244 as well as groups from the rest of the school. A special speech was given on each national holiday or event by a student of the room. One of the achievements of this year's coun- cil was to write a constitution and have it rati- fied by the students. Upper: 244 Council.

Parents too had a special look see at re- sults of career and aptitude test results, and were briefed by counselors on future guidance plans in January. , Homeroom members didn't have to peek to find out what was going on around school this year, thanks to a capable art staff who supplied a number of colorful and original board drawings advertising coming school events. A really important event on 264's calendar was the homeroom dinner where members and their parents were entertained by girls' and boys' singing groups, a chorus line and Freddy Burnside's rendition of When l Was Young.

This spirit typified 344 as its stu- dents went all out for the many char- ity drives and campaigns, and as they emphasized scholarship as the room's highest goal. Students were encour- aged to refer to the extensive collec- tion of college catalogs on file in the homeroom, Participation in homeroom affairs was stimulated by council meetings in front of the room. ln addition, a subcommittee from the students and the council was selected to plan for permanent decorations. On the social side, attendance at the homeroom dinner was at its high- est. Upper Right: The washwoman's wail, Chris Chacona and Fran Kremer.

Another interesting point in the 364 program was its counseling system. Calling in professional people and college representatives at various times to speak during homeroom pe- riods helped students to start think- ing about college and careers. Eighteen guidance films, shown during the year in counseling groups, and a vocational file for the use of the room, set up by students with the help of Miss Larson, aided students' plans for the future.

With this re- mark Mrs. Dorothy Waldo Phillips began her analysis of teen-agers be- fore a general assembly. Her speech was part of a PTA-spon- sored program to acquaint pupils with as many widely-known persons as possible, an idea typical of the PTA's policy of school advance- ment. Similar work was done by the Lay Advisory Council, designed to get the parents' point of view on administration problems. More on the informal side, the Dads' Club, consisting of many fa- thers of ETHS students, sponsored films of athletic events and a Foot- ball Banquet. Upper: Business over the tea table.

April was not in Paris or Portugal for the some l5O ETHS travelers, but in Wash- ington, New Orleans, and the Lincoln Country, as students tasted the lux- ury ot the fine hotels, steamer state- rooms, tours and dinners. Many new friends were made during the weelc's sojourn, sponsored by the school, not to mention the topics for conversation, which brought out the point that sightseeing was not only fun but also educational. For selected seniors in speech courses, New York offered a week of enchantment with Broadway hits, tele- vision shows and a guided tour ot the Empire State Building. Eighteen stu- dents with an average at tive hours' sleep a night returned to classes with tales of the Queen Mary and the Great White Way.

With the First Methodist Church as head- quarters, the Youth Conference Board, headed by Jean Bickford, planned a non-sectarian worship service, a dinner, entertainment and election of officers. The day before the conference was an all- school assembly, featuring as keynote speaker Dr. Alexander, minister of the First Christ Church of Oklahoma City, Father Putnam of St. Matthew's Episcopal Church in Evanston gave the invocation.

College invades high schooll College- level seniors were spotted near Mr. Mattson's manor, looking as it they were in another world - a world of Roman conquerors, medieval monks, and present-day politicians. The reason for their appearance in this vicinity was their high aptitude achievement in the sphere of world events, past and present. After three years of conquering the realms of social studies, world history and United States his- tory, they were prepared to attack the dominion of European history. Outside this orbit, there lie the realms of medi- eval and modern history and problems of de- mocracy, in whose orbit revolve its satellites, cur- rent affairs, foreign policy, geography, and crit- ical thinking. Political scientists don't need X-ray vision to delve to the depths ot their subject. With the aid of the newly-added View Graph projection mo- chine, they can reach new learning altitudes.

Accented in the program, which is a combination of English and social studies, were student planning and research in various projects. Tape recording as well as an opaque projector, films and phono- graph proved a valuable aid in core classes. Similar to the core program were the unified courses, with the accent on student planning and informal speak- ing in class. Field trips were included in the agenda for both. The double period courses were de- veloped with an eye to preparation for college, as they teach the student to take initiative and responsibility. Panel discussions and research projects were regularly included in the work in order that pupils may learn to work together. M FN uw om! vf QQ sf 4 se nf- my .Af ,- e, i fl 5 arm-K' ti?

A conspiracy? ln a way . . . it was the new science seminar held fifth period every other day to give chosen seniors the op- portunity of broadening and strengthening their special scientific interests. As it was an informal gathering, the students took turns being lecturer, Following the some theory of giving su- perior students the opportunity to advance, the eighth grade graduates showing unusu- al promise and interest were permitted to enter biology classes during the freshman year. ln addition, two science programs, consisting of lectures and exhibits, were scheduled to take place during assembly periods for selected students from the sci- ence classes. , WY' . K'-'N V numbers racket That long, narrow, expensive thing in a leather case that upperclassmen can be seen guarding so carefully is a slide rule, used not only as a bookmark, but as an aid to solving mathematical problems. To emphasize the all-important knowledge of 'rithme- tic, the Math Department added to the traditional math curriculum advanced courses in freshman al- gebra and plane geometry and a college level trig course, Besides the new additions, the main depart- ment kept up its policy of maintaining speed classes for juniors and seniors. Eventually the department expects to see about one third of its students enrolled in advanced math classes. All junior and senior math courses help prepare for college and for any career demanding a knowledge of mathematics. To further interest in the subject, the Math-Sci- ence Club provides field trips and speakers in the field of science for its members. Lipper Right: Trig triangles.

The reserved shelf boasted such masterpieces as U. S. 40 or Medieval History, awaiting the hurried reading of rushed students. Classes or groups could study in the special Patten reading room. On jobs and colleges, the library had just the thing for everyone. A complete vocation file with information pam- phlets was at the fingertips of interested students. College applicants were interested especially in the collection of col- lege yearbooks as well as the card catalog file. Finally, the library was one of the few that could boast of musical accompaniment to the swish of pages, for the band or chorus provided students with the background of songs ranging from Eh Cumpari to the Messiah during various periods of the day. -,fl 11 M If literary lair ,ggyr wt gn X8 355 ' Upper Left: Quiet please!

Theatres ranged from Room l69 and the Little Theatre to Social Hall, used during lunch periods and assemblies. Not only education but also recreation was given ad- vantage through the showing of films during class periods. Students with a bent for the movie business started at the mechanical end when they helped run the projectors in their free periods. ,M 52 Wk if -...... l 0 seeing is believing fgw.i'?:,ltZ .....

A democratic dictatorship was perhaps the best description offered this year for the art classes, held in the technical arts wing. Students in the third and fourth years, for whom art has become a major, were allowed to chose their own six to twelve week projects. The fourth year art class, beginning with Mr. Price in the first semester and finishing with Mr. Tre- sise, worked on such problems as a written study of a certain-artist or type of art, dress design, interior decorating, and commercial layouts. Third year classes concentrated on painting and illustration, which included magazine illustra- tion and pattern design. ln addition to the regular art classes, special courses in pottery, arts and crafts, and figure drawing were offered. Extra interest was lent to the latter when students brought colorful na- tional costumes to class for the models. Art classes have contributed to the effective- ness of various school affairs by lending a help- ing hand with decorations, as in the Christmas festival. Upper Left: Pat Prendergast.

However, there was more work in cheerleading than met the eye. From the time they were chosen in the spring of the preceding year until the last basketball game was over, the cheer- leaders' agenda revolved around a week- ly practice session and business meet- ing every Thursday afternoon. For both sophomore and varsity squads of cheerleaders, living danger- ously was the motto, as they performed on the football field and basketball court during the games, The result of long agitation for girl cheerleaders, the blue-and-ordnge-clad figures were a welcome sight at athletic events, as they tirelessly encouraged players and their backers. iumping iills A 1.

Mixes-. gun- tgwu Part of the legacy of the senior class to the school was the annual handbook. The Pilot, designed primarily to make the next year's freshman feel at home, and help him to know what to expect. This booklet, including a calen- dar of activities, an explanation of the school's depart- ments and their functions, results of the previous year's sports activities and scholarships, was one of the school's many publications. An important annual was Pen Points, formerly Soft Pipes, an anthology of short stories, essays and poems by ETHS students. Edited by the members and officers of the Writers' Club, to which anyone interested in writing may belong, Pen Points, as in other years, published a limited edition. Printing, typing and art work were done by the respective ETHS classes. Unlike other publications, Pen Points was the only one to finish out the year with a balanced budget, eciry writers Upper Left: The Pilot staff.

Students trained in the photography class and the Photo Service Club, under the direction of Mr. Cochrane, not only took the pictures, but also developed film and made enlargements in the school Photo-Lab. ETHS photographers were particularly success- ful during l954 in capturing many coveted con- test awards. ln the Scholastic Exhibition for schools ot this area, a record was set with forty- one photographs winning the top awards in the contest. women at work What is a girl's best friend? Pentangle, of course! This all school junior-senior girls' club fulfilled the five-fold purpose of friendship, so- cial relations, school service, community serv- ice, and inter-school relations. Pentangle's of- ficers, board, and committees, headed by Mimi Gibson and sponsored by Miss Exley, have work- ed together this year to put on seventeen events. These included a pot-luck supper with Highland Park, a bang-up turnabout called Neptune's Nestle, a clothing drive, and courtesy week. There were also the annual Christmas and Birth- day parties and a coke party at the beginning of the year, The final project of the year was the Ice Cream Social to raise funds for a schol- arship received by a senior girl who is outstand- ing in leadership, scholarship, and community service.

Working together, this branch of Central Council tried to solve the problem of arousing and regulating student spirit. ln like manner, Cheerleaders and the cheer section'coupled their talents to maintain a con- stant surge of encouragement for football and basketball gladiators. Working behind the scenes, Pep Club mem- bers weekly informed each homeroom of coming sports events and arranged for busses to trans- port students to out-of-town games. Thanks to the Pep Club's boosting, school spirit soared to an all-time high, as evidenced by a tremendous student turnout at out-of-town foot- ball games.

Our assistant section editors, Bill McNamara and Tony Mulac have frequently smoothed the way for more direct action. Without the photo service, headed by Mr. Cochrane, the black squares on this particular chessboord would be blank. To fill the white suares with copy we had literary helpers who were: Margaret Johansen Lollie Guest, and Justine Townsend. The plan of attack was supplied by the art staff: Roxy Peterson, Kay Vance, Mike Bain, and Lou Schwartz. ln charge of communications and sundry details were Dave Cope, Anne Mathissan, Ellen Diamond, Virginia Johnson and Sherry Rose. We, the staff, are especially grateful for two things, The corner grocery store, which supplied us with fuel, and our pocket chessboard, which was entertainment as well as a working model. To our successors we bequeath the Chessmen, and to the senior class this record of our game. And now . . . it's your move. in -ww: I 1 Jw. -vu. ,r , V vw., egg -Q fx v 1-11 g , 3344. fi-ff 235 A wi.
