You find them everywhere from the library to the woodpile and even under your pillow at night. Unless you take up hermiting as a life-time profession we rather doubt if you could lose the omnipresent periodicals. But then, who wants to? Magazines have become a medium of connection between nations and peoples and between people and their lives; past, present, and future. So here we are with another version of this well known literature of everyone, with heretofore uncounted pieces of various magazines. We dare you to find all the magazines present at this final printing. (We were completely lost about half way through.) Hmmm, little did you know of how much magazine material our alma mater is composed. Qua Modi Vt jOAx tiaJjde , yr o put it in her own words Miss Daphne Matthews does not like to toot ' my own horn. But then she is like that. As head of social activities committee and Toka adviser she took plenty of kicks without the usually i concomitant grumbling. Now that we have put her up on a pillar we will proceed to take that little pedestal out from under her. She just does not belong there for she is thoroughly human. In. fact she has enough of humanity to put j a little in Macbeth and make him a man instead of just a name connected in some remote way with Bill Shakespeare. Which reminds us, maybe some of you up and coming seniors can fulfill her desire of reading the encounter of Mac- beth and Macduff written prize-fight style. Here's hoping. As far as unforget- table characters go she is the ideal example. You are not apt to forget a faculty member who remembers a time not long ago when she might have been seen sitting on a curbstone devouring Planter's traditional appetite appeaser, nor { will you forget someone who can advise without the too prevalent condescending manner of obviously being an adviser. 1 ! 1 I 1 1 t 1 1 t ! « I ! ! 1 ! 1 1 1 ! 1 1 1 ! oaenti Girls' League Week Committee chairmen The Pep Club barn dance was well attended, showed initiative.

It undertook many projects, among them the important one of reorganizing the students' activity program. The activity period was entirely eliminated and class periods lengthened to one hour. All non-essential clubs were canceled, and the few remaining ones met during the free periods of their advisers. Assemblies, which were formerly held once or twice a week, were then held once ever)' two weeks. This new program, which started the second semester, was to assist the students in utilizing their time. Another activity was the scrap drive, in which all students participated, and the proceeds were used to retire turf bonds. The admission fee to the various games was raised and tentative plans were made to purchase a service flag honoring all the boys from Grants Pass High School who are now serving in the armed forces. All in all, the preceding year has been one of the most significant and influential that the governing body has ever seen. — 11 — Gcw nan PaOial FIRST ROW: Single, Marcus, Hostetler.

Education was first, for well trained leaders will be needed in the future. Generously buying war bonds, making Red Cross surgical dressings, and entertaining service men through the USO were some of the volunteer services. Individual teachers. Miss Marian Burt, W. S. Carpenter, Miss Princess Egbert, and Principal Henry Tetz, through rheir volunteer services, have distinguished themselves. With the aid of her Art II VolwnieeM class. Miss Burt plann- d the color scheme of the new USO center and later painted it. Miss Egbert, under the war training program has instructed adult classes in conservation, production, and processing of food, and care of clothing. Acting as chairman of the local salvage committee, Mr. Tetz was responsible for organizing and shipping out all salvage material collected during the campaign. Organizing and supervising war production classes in Josephine and Jackson counties for adults has been Mr. Carpenters service. The classes included farm machinery and tractor repair work, dairy and poultry work, and food production. — 14 '7kli Akwe All Attention' Our boys prepare for Victory.

This year the Glee club presented Ship Ahoy, a modern musical comedy, given April 9. Supporting the main cast were the combined choruses and small orchestra. Norma McCormick. Carol Willis, Bonnie Hansen. Dallas Jerome, and Wally Martin played and sang the leading parts. Directors for the operetta were R. Cloyd Riffe, Miss Daphne Matthews, and Miss Faye Thompson. A hilarious three-act farce. Spring Fever, was presented by the senior class on May 7. The play, full of action and opportunities for good characterization, revolved around young college students preparing for their commencement. Eugene Smith, Chet Lathrop. Bill Andrews, Jeanne McLaughlin, Virginia Landers, and Ida Lou Menane headed the cast. Miss Faye Thompson directed the play, assisted by Miss Daphne Matthews.

K t — jo 3 3 9 f Scalping the Roseburg Indians, tri-county league champions, 20-0, the Grants Pass Cavemen brought to a close one of the most successful seasons in many years. The climax came when the Cavemen, for the initial time in twelve years, ambushed the Medford Tigers, by a score of 12-6, Clayton and Lathrop combining to form an uncanny passing combination, good for two touchdowns. Against Ashland, Grants Pass piled up a score of 33 points, the Grizzlies failing to tally. At North Bend and Marshfield, however, it was a different story, with the Cavemen, against heavy' odds, gaining a tie in both games, 6-6, and 7-7, respectively. In the conference championship game, at Klamath Falls, Grants Pass was defeated by one of the best teams in the state, 33-0. The Cavemen threatened several times, bringing the football to the eight, and four yard line, but the highly rated Klamath Falls team won decisively. Coach Tuffy Keith's incentive for getting the players into shape produced results, with six players on the all-Conference first and second teams, Blevins and Gray, guard and back, were rated tops in the conference.

This name is known not only to every student of Grants Pass High but to sport fans all over the West. Hailing from Omaha. Nebraska, Davis came out here to retire, but soon found himself back in the old grind because of an acute shortage of teachers. Living up to his reputation of coaching championship teams, Davis with an omnipresent hand spurred the old Alma Mater basketball team to the top of the Southern Oregon Conference League and took the championship title. Davis has had a very active sports career in playing as well as coaching. He is an alumnus of the University of Omaha, played on the varsity football team, and participated in many college track meets. hew- C ack JlaA, Singeing the whiskers of the Medford Tigers three times out of four, the Grants Pass Cavemen, for the first time in history, won the S.O.C. championship. While the victories over Medford constituted a suitable share in our victory, the Cavemen showed their mettle by dropping only eight games out of a total of twenty games played altogether. At Ashland, in the district play-offs, the Cavemen played an excellent game against the Klamath Falls Pelicans, losing to the more powerful Pelicans 48-29. In the second of the series, against Medford, the eaA m Cavemen pushed the Tigers farther back into their lair, beating them 29-24. With Rus Martindale's tireless work under the basket, and Chet Lathrop's and John Gray's excellent fast-breaking combination, the Cavemen got off to a good start, remaining in the top spot for the rest of the season. In the S.O.C. all-star team, Johnny Gray and Rus Martindale made the first string; Neale Schrimpf and Snuffy Smith were on the second. Since all but two of the Varsity are seniors, next year will bring a brand new squad. — 33 — A scramble for the ball In the Ashland game at rants Push.

The usual interscholastic battles shrunk to only two volleyball games. The so-called restrictions turned color and proved to be a definite benefit. In an accelerated intramural program many more girls were active and were given a real chance to demonstrate their ability. The hockey tournaments were cut short for our novice players by the unusual” weather. Despite the short season the girls had fun in this, their first year of organized hockey. The volleyball tournament was spiced with several girl vs. boy games. Basketball season found an A and B tournament, each supplying examples of skill and ingenuity. The spring budded out with soft-ball games galore and some warm tennis and badminton games. Frances Ditty.

Representatives of the honor society barely nosed out a victory in a battle of wits with John Q. Student in a quiz assembly program which, with the support and humor of Master of Ceremonies Curran, raised laughs as well as sighs of longing from the student body. Prizes for the top ranking quiz kids were, most appropriately, war stamps. This year boasted of two initiation ceremonies. The first was an informal initiation of the juniors who became full-fledged members this fall. The highlight of the year was the formal initiation planned for late spring. The honor society combines informality and inspiration in an Initiation. — 42 — U. I . (I I r I ’ LcftKue officers: S. J. Lee. I. McClellan. Boling. M. J. Lee. Prosser. Li-um. Hanson, Miss Quinlan.

Hi-Y meetings opened with a bang (especially before promptness became comparatively habitual) this year. In fact the whole year was a bang-up success. Led by Bill Davis, president, and Mr. Curran, adviser, the club's activities and services were numerous. They presided over our defense stamp sales the last semester of the year of our jeep. The upper division was fortunate when they brought Mr. Everett Harding, who told us of prison camp conditions and the Y's work in them. Of no small importance was the always successful Hi-Y dance. Their auction, in which defense stamps supplanted the usual pecunia, was a highlight of the year. — 44 — With a record of cooperation and leadership unequaled by any other school organization, the Varsity G has again completed an outstanding year. Highlight among the many activities was the Winter Sport dance, held in December, and given with the aid of the Pep club. The task of policing the grounds and keeping order in the halls and at assemblies was only one of many duties in which the Varsity G excelled. One important job was that of keeping the bicycles in their proper places, a task which, as many students remember too well, was executed with complete thoroughness. Varsity G’s shindig gives out with music, laughs, and fun for all. lette imen Active, hJith d cuAm and dnxzmi FIRST ROW: IV Martlndale. Collie. Skow. Andrews, dray. Lathrop. R. Martindale. Edwards.

The Girls Letter Club democratized awarding of letters this year by an intramural schedule. No outside games being possible, a committee consisting of Sally Jo Lee, Mary Jane Lee, Bonnie Mae Hansen, Kathleen McCollum, and Frances Hussey was appointed by Miss Clines, to decide which girls should receive letters in each sport. Several noon dances with defense stamps for admission were sponsored throughout the year. Old-fashioned box socials and allday hikes also afforded much interest. Largely due to the ability and efforts of the officers: president, Sally Jo Lee; vice-president, Bonnie Mae Hansen; secretary-treasurer, Kathleen McCollum; and student council representative, Mary Jane Lee; the club has had a very successful year. - e c - e ' e — 46 — FIR8T HOW: Tarvin.

Presiding over the club were: Bill Rice, president; Ed Sakraida, secretary: Elmo Shephard, treasurer; and La Verne Pollock, reporter. The club engaged in many activities, including: the annual fathers’ and sons’ banquet, parliamentary law and public speaking contest in Roseburg, and in all salvage drives.
