A thing of beauty is a joy forever. —Keats. . . . Tranquil and picturesque in their enduring beauty, scenic spots of Western Colorado appropriately highlight the pages of the 1946 Tiger Annual. Giving his service and advice freely, the teacher is the inspiration of today's youth and of tomorrow's leaders. A most understanding friend to his staff members, an ex cellent administrator of school affairs, a valuable citizen of the community, and a vital leader in state educational work is I. K. Boltz, superintendent of the Grand Junction Public Schools. In this executive position, Mr. Boltz has won the respect and admiration of his fellow workers. For his long time service in the schools, for his constant participation in projects pertaining to war and peace, for his philosophical views on life, and for his sincerity as a friend, R. E. Tope, one-time superintendent, enjoys a well earned prestige in the community of which he has been a vital part for many years. vlett C . James Congenial, well-liked, tactful, efficient, and cooperative, Robert C. James took over the position of principal of the high school last fall. Under his capable leadership, teachers and students worked together as a coordinated unit to make 1946 a year outstanding in scholastic achievement and extracurricular activity. C . hinte A new member of Grand Junction High School, Ray C. Hume assumed the assistant principalship this year. Coming here from Palisade, Mr. Hume was already well known in the community as an influential leader in school affairs, as a public spirited citizen, and as a man whose friendship is worth cultivating. 12 = 'faculty Fundamentals of Latin and English were taught by Miss Maude Crawford.

Jin tic tJ From green freshmen to wise fools this season s junior class finally rose to the esteemed rank of upperclassmen. With this promotion came many new responsibilities and activities. Many of them found themselves now eligible for the honorary organizations of Tri-S and Quill and Scroll.

Earlier in the year, thev were guests of the graduating class at the Senior-Junior Theater Party, a traditional event. Following much discussion and voting, the group chose The All American Crown Jewel for their ring. Always creating enlhusiasm and electioneering the Student Body election this year was no exception as members of the class of 47 campaigned for their candidate who would be given the task of leading G.

Future homemakers gain practical knowledge for use in the kitchen. Physicists test radio meter as a part of their scientific education. Biology students view specimens from a different perspective. Scientists of the future experiment on a new formula in chemistry. 40 Students perfect poise and skill in expression in speech class. Scribes originate material for the school publications in journalism class. A cultural background in literature plus grammar and rhetoric concern English classes. Pupils of Spanish I memorize the do's and don'ts of idioms and tenses. Latin pupils purposefully learn the basic of all languages. 41 Songsters warble under the direction of John Pendergrast. Students enjoy golden silence of library. Girls gain practical experience helping in high school office. Juniors secure a basis for American citizenship and clear political thinking in the study of history. Perspective, color, design, and style play prominent roles in art classes. Skill, craftsmanship, and training secured in shop prepare for life tasks. Technicalities of radio receiving and sending intrigue vocational school boys. Tomorrow's engineers master intricacies of mechanical drawing problems. Auto mechanics gives boys a practical knowledge of a car's insides. Machinists are turned out like lathe parts at vocational school. 43 Doan brothers solve mysteries of slide rule in Algebra II. When geometry students see a curve they start figuring angles. Hieroglyphics to us but shorthand to industrious stenos. Keeping hubbies' accounts won't ruffle girls mastering 20th Century Bookkeeping. Efficiency and speed in typing insure office positions for aspiring stenographers. 44 Active participation in health-building sports give freshmen pep. Freshman boys work up hard muscles and vitality in gym. To improve the figure is the high resolve of girls' gym classes. Girls learn the rudiments of participation in outdoor games. Muscle-making exercises are given as consequences for non-cooperation r ijam j ations The organizations of Grand Junction High School teach students to work harmoniously together. 47 c lu Lcitt L oaned Improvement of school dances by adoption of a definite set of rules was the first task undertaken by the 1945-46 student council. Dances were made more interesting by introducing mixers and the hostess system. A coat room was also a feature improvement. For the purpose of exchanging ideas on student government and promoting better relations between schools, the inter- school conference convened with representatives from the entire Western Slope present. One of the ideas of the conference was carried out through a group of assmblies sent to neighboring schools. A more democratic form of student government was reached by the council this year through the promotion of student participation in activities and school government.

Under the guidance of Clyde Granere, the league sponsored the wrestling matches for a family night and the senior faculty volleyball game. These provided entertainment for the public as well as the high school students. An exchange assembly, which was held with the Girls' League, proved successful. Of great value to new students in the high school was the hospitality committee. Acquainting newcomers with the school, teachers, and various school activities was the duty given a group selected from members of each class.

A yearbook containing membership list, motto, creed, budget, program, calendar, and important activities throughout the year, was a successful accomplishment. One of the copies was sent to the state headquarters of the club. Several representatives were sent to a district meeting of the Future Homemakers held in Fruita in November and to the state conference held in Fort Col-iins April 5-6.

To help in organizing for a true peace, the International Relations Club chose World Peace and the Atomic Bomb'' as its theme for the Western Slope Conference held on Febru ary 16. At regular meetings members discussed other significant problems and events affecting the unity of nations today. With the International Relations Club in charge, the third annual carnival furnished an exciting night for many Junc-tionites. Hot dogs, penny toss, and the fish pond were a few of the many concessions. Eating fifteen pieces of pie at the I. R. C. pie fest, Robert Rigg surpassed all other competitors, although not overthrowing Herb Bowman's and Ronald Nestler's record of twenty-four pieces.

Football, basketball, track, wrestling —all aid in developing physical and mental coordination. 63 —Ztu The tangle of green and white, orange and black, or blue and gold on the green, brown-tinged turf; the feverish heat of the game; the blood - tingling, rousing yells, romantic after-game dances—all are wonderful memories of the football season. Probably at no other time does the school spirit run so high, even more so because of the successful season had by the Tiger pigskin packers. A most strenuous sport, requiring the early to bed, early to rise' maxim, so that the footballers can be on time to the practice field in the chilly dawn; it also results in an Herculean physique to awe the fairer sex. What is so good as the feeling of the fray as a fellow, with the ball held firmly in one arm, straight-arms it down the yard line amid wildly-cheering crowds to a touchdown? Football is a great game, a clean game, an exciting game— a sport that brings out the best in men in fairness, coordination, and fast thinking.
