Sparks ot enthusiasm tilled the air as the Fair- tield l-ligh School Marching Band approached the tield. This snappy organization provided numerous halt-time activities at tootball games this year, as well as playing the traditional Star Spangled Banner prior to each game. Out- standing demonstrations pertormed by the band were an imitation ot Altred l-litchcoclc, a smiling baby tace with rolling eyes which tlirted with the spectators, and a bent tishing pole with a tish which symbolized l:airtield's catching a vic- tory. This organizations portrayals contributed to our school spirit and enthusiasm. J. Sheets A crisp tall day set the colortul background tor State Marching Band Contest held at Ottumwa. The band members, in their traditional orange and blaclc unitorms, vigorously began the usual tantare. The customary countermarches, cole umn rights, and diminish and increase tronts were cleverly done in pertect rhythm as the colortul pertormers marched down the tield. The entire pertormance was under the capable direc- tion ot lvlr. Dillon Lowell. Atter completing the routine, several moments were tilled with anxiety. Soon the participants realized that all the hard work which they had done previous to this day was to be rewarded by a Division l in the State Contest, which is an honor and an achievement. 11 High Steppers P.

Membership in a Cape pella choir is an honor and privilege given to 'lhose who show special interest and talent in vocal music. Participants desire to learn more about tone and pitch qualities: however, these basic interests are only a part ot the entirety oi music. Better character trails developed and mainlained throughout the year are seriousness ot purpose, initiative, and perhaps the most vital, the feeling ol responsibility for the choir as a whole. Special robes are worn by members, malcinq the music of this closely knit group even more impressive. The choir lakes part in all productions of the vocal music department and usually presents the highlight ol the various programs. This is illus- trated by the choir's interpretation of the Christ- mas story, given during vespers in December, and the Song of Easter , composed ot Negro Spirituals, which was presented at the March Show.

This was The problem ThaT Taced Mrs. Savage aTTer The deaTh oT her husband. She wanTed To give her inher- iTance To people so ThaT They could spend iT Tor someThing They had always wanTed. l-Ter greedy sTep-children, however, wanTed The money Tor Their own use. l-Toping To seize The inheriTance, The Tamily had Mrs. Savage commiTTed To a pri- vaTe menTal saniTarium. While aT The CloisTers , she meT people, who like herselT, were considered curious . Mrs. Savage grew To love all The guesTs and They in Turn were drawn ouT oT Their egg-shell worlds because They TelT she needed Their assisTance. Mrs. Savage knew The Tamily was Trying To Take The money and ThereTore, wiTh The help oT her new Tound Triends, she seT abouT To ouTwiT Them. To aggravaTe The Tamily even more, Mrs. Sav- age decided To be exTremely eccenTric. For ex- ample, she cuddled a large Teddy bear consTanT- ly. However, The Teddy bear did conTain The bonds, which her sTepchildren wanTed To gain possession oT so badly. Finally, when The Tamily demanded ThaT she Turn over The bonds, Mrs. Savage was Torced To reveal The TacT ThaT The Teddy bear was her personal bank. As she gave The bonds To Them, one oT her Triends Turned ouT The lighTs and snaTched The papers. The oTher guesTs immediaTely Tell in wiTh The plans and convinced The sTepchildren ThaT The pre- cious bonds had been desTroyed. Believing all The money gone, The greedy Tamily no longer wanTed To boTher wiTh Mrs. Savage. ATTer They leTT, The bonds were broughT ouT oT hiding and saTely reTurned To Their owner. Free To leave whenever she wanTed and having her inheriTance, Mrs. Savage was now able To carry on her plans Tor a happiness Tund . She realized she owed her good TorTune To The innocenT acTions and quick wiT oT her Triends aT The CloisTers . AlThough Mrs. Savage realized she musT leave The CloisTers To go on wiTh her work, she did so relucTanTly because she had become a parT oT This small world where she had been needed To help The guesTs Tind Themselves. They, in Turn, convinced her ThaT They liked her Tor her- selT and noT Tor her wealTh.

This unique toy, plus a clever ventriloquist, near- sighted ladies, and a persistent stockroom boy created the humor in BUY JUPITER, the senior play ot I958. Jupiter, property ot Fizz Foster, a tast talking character ot doubttul reputation, created bed- lam in the toy department at Joyces, a huge department store. Thoroughly tooled by the clever ventriloquism ot Fizz Foster, Miss Lindsey, department head, purchased IOO Jupiters, hope ing to build them into a nation-wide craze. The mistalce was discovered when the boss's wite purchased the Jupiters and tound thern useless. Miss lindsey's sister and Joe, a stoclc-room boy ot many ditterent personalities, tried desperately to get her out ot the mess, and in so doing managed to get more deeply involved. Atter purchasing l0,000 Jupiters, and thoroughly con- tusing everyone, the two conspirators tinally sold all the talking horses and restored Miss Lindsey to her righttul place as toy department head. :Hit Kay Lindsey ........... ...,.,.,,,,.., . . ,..... .Judy DeHaan Miss Amanda Peck .,.,,, ,.,. . .Marjorie Stewart Betty Lindsey ...,,.,..,,,. ,.,.,,, C hristy Russell Joe Burns .......i., .,,, ..i,,,,,, T e rry Curtis Mrs. Jackson ,,,,, ....,,,,,,,, K ay Lisk Hank Hughes ....,,, ....... .

To develop a good debate team, the members must devote many long hours to research and preparation. Also they must thoroughly under- stand the subiect. This year the question to be debated wasp Resolved: That toreign aid should be substantially increased. The attirmative S. Krane, S. Howrey, A. Walker, J. Mawdsley, C. Willey 28 team consisted ot Carl Willey and Audrey Walker, while Sara l-'lowrey and Sig Krane com- posed the negative. The highlight ot the debating season came when these tour traveled to Davenport on March 8 to participate in the district contest. In a tield ot about 30 competing teams, our teams re- ceived a good rating. Debating, like any other torm ot speech worlc, is ot great value to the individual competing, as he learns to thinlc constructively on a variety ot topics relating to the main debate subiect. l-le learns to do research worlc, both as an individual and as a group proiect, and in this way learns to cooperate with others. l-le must not only be able to give a good con- structive discussion ot the question, but also be able to present his arguments in the rebuttal speech.

She has sfepped directly into fhe rhythm of Fl-lS acfivifies, and has affended classes as il she had been here all her life. l-ler conversation in class capfivafed fhe affenfion of each sfudenf. Those who have had her in fheir classes, have surely considered if a greaf privilege. She has confribufed many interesting hours fo various meetings of clubs and or- ganizafions. An added affracfion is her quaint nafive cos- fume which she wears fo special school functions such as teas, banquets, and assemblies. l-ler honorary membership in our school organizafions has helped 'ro associafe her more closely wifh many who otherwise would have had liffle chance fo meef her personally. Though she musf leave us af fhe end of fhe school year, she will leave with us a newer and brighfer concepfion of her nafive Finland. HIE VEIII' Fairfield l-ligh School is privileged fo have many special assemblies, each planned for fhe interests of the sfudenfs. We believe fhaf such assem- blies promofe interest in many different fields, and also inspire ambifion. Informing assemblies were sparlced by fhe pres- ence of C. E.

Because of fhe various sfudenf achievements, and afhlefic underfalcings, the sfu- denfs and local personnel have an opporfunify fo organize assemblies. One example of a local- ly sponsored assembly was So you wanf fo be a cheerleader confesf, in which fhe portals of opporfunify were opened fo four eager boys when fhey were invited fo fhe stage fo demon- sfrafe their prowess in promoting pep. The cheerleaders, who were responsible for the con- fesf, fhen arranged for a vofe, affer which a king was crowned. Gyroscope demonstration Tryouts for cheerleader king lead to crowning by C. E.

The Fairtield Independent School Board, as such, will cease to exist atter July l, l958, so to the members ot this group who have spent many long hours in study and conterence, we wish to express our sincere thanlcs tor a iob well done. Since Fairtield becomes a part ot the Fairtield Community District, we will no longer have our own Board ot Education. As all Board members give treely ot their time and talents without com- pensation we wish to especially recognize these men who have given many extra hours ot ser- vice to the school and the community in worlc- ing out plans tor the reorganization ot our dis- trict into a community school to serve the needs ot a much larger part ot the county. While worlcing on the reorganization ot the dis- trict they have also had to carry on the regular worlc ot the Board: that is, evaluating and pur- chasing text boolcs tor all ot the grades and high schools, electing and supervising a competent statt ot teachers tor all departments, maintaining all buildings and equipment, supervising the transportation ot some 300 students on school buses, and the serving ot about 700 meals daily in the cateterias to students and personnel ot the school. These men are the elected representatives ot the people ot the community, and thus must put aside personal opinions and ideas and worlc at all times tor the betterment ot the community and the students who are residents in that commun- ity. lt is necessary to maintain harmony be- tween all groups at all times so that the best worlc may be done. Again, we say that we appreci- ate the work which this group has done tor the betterment ot education in the city ot Fairtield and the surrounding districts. I D meet the Faculty Superintendent S.

A great assortment ot experimental materials are available to interested pupils. A human skeleton captures the attention ot every- one, and occasional chirpings trom the lab draw students to examine the rabbits, birds, and snakes kept there. Each biologist is responsible tor a complete notebook ot the year's discover- ies, including detailed drawings and technical terms, quite vauable tor later college work.

Algebra 2 and 3 tollow the tirst semester ot algebra taken in general math. This course based on previous study introduces tur- ther work in equations and tormulas. It would be impossible to tell ot the importance ot this subject, yet too tew people realize that it is the study ot algebra that enables engineers to de- sign bridges and radios, highways and new cars. lt's amazing how one can insert a letter into an appropriate equation to discover an unknown quantity. By participating in board work stu- dents can pool their newly gained knowledge tor the interests ot all. The purpose ot speech: to undertake an intelli- gent role in democracy, and to be capable ot expressing oneselt clearly. Students strive to at- 86 tain these goals through intormative, amusing, extemporaneous, and demonstrative speeches. Since rnan's communication is essentially that ot speech, it is necessary that anyone ot ambition learn to speak well. Lawyers, politicians, busi- nessmen, and other public tigures rely on speak- ing tor their very livelihood: theretore, anyone seeking a career in any similar tield tinds speech an invaluable study.

Other attractive mas- terpieces ot plaster sculpture, copper enamel, and hooked rugs are also created in this depart- ment. This class is unusual in that very otten everyone is working on a ditterent projectg but in such a creative tield-each student must be encouraged to be individual. lt's remarkable how obvious the young artist's styles become atter a time, even the rnost artistically ignorant can otten tell who made what. This department is also responsible tor the attractive hall-teachers that otten boast its displays. United States llistnrv Although ZOO years seems like a long time, it's amazing how much has happened since the birth ot our nation. l-lowever, as juniors soon learn, it isn't learning ot the events themselves that's so important-it's the ettect that these events have had upon us, and the causes and results ot both successtul and unsuccessful undertakings. ln a successtul study ot history, each student realizes that history, in terms ot man's actions and teelings, repeats itselt. Theretore, by under- standing why historical happenings occured, jun- ior historians learn how to toresee detinite results trom present day attairs-a valuable achieve- ment tor citizens. What color would be best? 92 lligllified llIllilll'5 Puptnrn muthine There's a big game tonightl This can mean only one thing. The juniors must prepare to sell great quantities ot popcorn to the spectators. lt's really tun, though, as sellers can see the game and meet triends as well as attending to the bus- iness ot making money. Actually, pop corn sel- ling is only one ot the numerous schemes to make money. These mercenary juniors also sell home- made candy in the halls at noon, sponsor a play, and sell Homecoming corsages. When prom time comes--there's never any doubt that their time and ettorts were well spent. Earning money for prom Notebooks tracing the literary trends trom the Maytlower to Ogden Nash are the pride jor em- barrassmentj ot every junior. lvleaningtul quota- tions, personal explanations and opinions, and otten decorative drawings make these digests ot American literature noteworthy in themselves. These accounts plus a sprinkling ot speeches, dramatic presentations and book reports make tor an enjoyable and protitable class. lieumetrq Ditterent trom other branches ot mathematics, geometry deals with points, lines, and solids in Gllill IIIIIHIIEIIIIE space insTead oT linear eguaTions previously sTudied in algebra.

Many Tilms are shown To iIIus+ra+e examples oT boTh good and bad Tarming meThods, and seed and soil TesTs are made and sTudied. AlThough TexT- books aren'T used, workbooks serve as an accur- aTe record oT each sTudenT's acTiviTies. Some- Times The boys work on The Fl-IS Tarm. AT oTher Times shopwork is included To Teach TuTure Tar- mers To make and care Tor Their own Tools and equipmenT.

Special Services BUS nI'iUEI'!i Nearly half oi FHS is made up of rural siudenis who depend upon school busses and their driv- ers for iheir iransporiaiion. ln addiiion io driving their regular daily rouies, several oi ihe drivers use their busses for many exlra iobs, such as transporting Troian ieams io out-ot iown games and delivering siudenis to bowl- ing classes. Our bus drivers deserve a special ihanlcs from ihe siudenis oi FHS for ihe fine iob ihey have done this year. Keeping our school grounds and building clean and aiiraciive, sweeping floors, empiying waste-baslceis, and cleaning blackboards are only a iew of ihe countless duties performed by our school custodians. Always busy, always needed, they iaiihiully carry oui iheir assigned iaslcs. The custodians deserve a big salute for helping lceep Fl-iS a place oi which we can always be proud. A greai amouni of time and effort goes into the preparaiion oi iasiy, hoi, well-balanced meals for ihe sludenis, teachers, and employ- ees oi FHS. ln addition To the actual prepara- iion of ihe food, these ladies musi see Thai each meal is served on time and thai the lunch room and lciichen are lcepi saniiary. We offer a voie oi appreciation to The coolcs for iheir well-spent iime and effort. Students and iaculiy members oi Fairfield High School owe a debt oi graiiiude io ihe bus drivers, custodians, and cooks for the many hours which they spend in assisting with The mainienance oi our school. Alihough inwardly each oi us realizes thai these workers are a necessary part of our school life, few have ac- iually expressed iheir appreciaiion. TOP: BUS DRIVERS: L. Cook, V. Ledger, K. Salts, D.
